Thank you my friend Sgt (Join to see) for posting the music video of Diana Krall performing Antonio Carlos Jobim 'Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars' in a a live performance in Rio de Janeiro November 2008.

To be honest I prefer Brazilian Astrud Gilberto who sand on a number of Stan Getz Bossa Nova songs
Astrud Gilberto was born Astrud Evangelina Weinert to a Brazilian mother and German Father
Astrud Gilberto - Corcovado

Corcovado [Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars']
English lyrics
Quiet nights of quiet stars,
quiet chords from my guitar,
floating on the silence that surrounds us.

Quiet thoughts and quiet dreams,
quiet walks by quiet streams
and a window that looks out on Corcovado,
oh how lovely.

This is where I want to be
here with you so close to me
until the final flicker of life's embers.

I, who was lost and lonely
believing life was only
a bitter tragic joke
I found with you
the meaning of existence,
oh my love

I, who was lost and lonely
believing life was only
a bitter tragic joke
I found with you
the meaning of existence,
oh my love."
