Hi Underground,

you all know this song. It's our entry for the 53th season of the ukulele.
This week's theme is to post a video for one of the seasons you have missed in the previous 52 weeks. If you never took part in the seasons, now's the best time ever!
Hope you join us!

We missed season 27th, the Latin season. So we decided to record the bossa nova song number one.

Super version! It is a tricky song to sing and you do a great job.

Also, I love the dress just perfect for the song!

That was great, really sorry we missed that in season 27. Feel free to post it there as a bonus track.

I'm starting to feel a beachy breeze in my hair and warm sunshine on my winter-pale face...

I like that weird look in the studio.

Thank you very much Nipper! It's trickier than it sounds like for sure and took me quite a while...
Thanks for your comment. Hope the hear more from the Night Owls!

Thank you very much Campbell. I watched a video of Astrud Gilberto and all the girls in it had such dresses. And I chose a yellow dress, because I thought that would evoke some brazilian beach feeling. Here it's snowing

Thank you very much, Chris!

I read a nice book about Joao Gilberto, called "Hobalala" by MArc Fischer. I don't know if it is translated in English.
