Manny Barrelnose is no Sinatra but there is some semblance of singing there.

I don't normally go in for competitions but, some time ago, I bought a jar of Kenco coffee that offered a free trip to Rio for the best written reason for going there. Well, the best reason is the link below but I wrote some bromide about the wonderful scenery etc. etc. I didn't expect to win and I didn't, but today I got an Email from Kenco suggesting I enter their latest competition in which the first prize is, and I don't believe it either, a trip to the Costa Rican rainforest.

Oh great. Now I've got a Barry Manilow song stuck in my head.

Maybe if I walk down the beach a ways, the girl from Ipanema can bump it out of there.

Hmmm – hmmm, I can’t hear you – I can’t hear you, La la la la la, hmmm –hmmm

Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, each one she passes goes - ahh

It is hot, hot, hotter than h** down here!

Miami Vice, Homer Simpson,...oh the pain (smilie or comode-e-com - whatever you call those things - banging its head against the wall)

How about getting back to basics:
I first gave you Jim Carrey's version, so how about the original:
