From The Huffington Post:

RIO DE JANEIRO -- "Tall and tan and young and lovely..." You've heard of her. The Girl From Ipanema.

You might have come across the bossa nova classic while on hold on the phone, during a long elevator ride, or in a cafe in Beirut or Bangkok - but you've heard it. It's been recorded by everyone from Frank Sinatra to Amy
