fucking impeccable. I love how she can't quite sing perfectly. the flaws in her voice really set her apart and make the music so much more sexy and charming.



so great!


NOT CRAP.

Don't forget about Antonio Carlos Jobim. He composed the songs that made her famous.

Inexplicably, his nickname is Tom. If you had to pick a nickname would you choose Tom?

Check out (also inexplicably) the Sinatra/ Jobim album. Very Not Crap.

Not Crap.

NOT CRAP.

Her career was a total accident. She came up to the US to act as a translator to hubby João and ended up being asked to sing on The Girl From Ipanema at a session with Stan Getz. The rest, as they say is...

Bebel isn't her daughter, she's the daughter of João Gilberto and Miúcha...

Apart from being picky, NOT CRAP.
