- Get Yourself a College Girl is a 1964 Metrocolor film comedy in the style of a beach party movie. The plot involves a college co-ed who tries to balance her time writing songs and dealing with her publisher who tries to pursue her. It was directed by Sidney Miller and written by Robert E. Kent, and filmed at Sun Valley, Idaho,USA.
Turner Classic Movies critic Mel Neuhaus calls it "A curious 1964 hybrid of teen movie musical with pre-feminist overtones as well as a parody of moralistic anti-rock message films." It is notable for the appearance of Astrud Gilberto, the Brazilian singer who sang the international hit song "The Girl From Ipanema", appearing as herself in the film.
Plot
Terry Taylor (Mary Ann Mobley) is a senior at conservative Wyndham College for Women and, under an assumed name, a successful pop songwriter. After her publisher Gary Underwood (Chad Everett) unknowingly exposes her career, Wyndham's board of trustees-including the college founder's grandson, California State Senator Hubert Morrison (Willard Waterman)-condemns Terry for indecent behavior
.
To distract herself from a possible expulsion, Terry, her friends Sue Ann Mobley (Chris Noel) and Lynne (Nancy Sinatra), and their physical-education instructor Marge Endicott (Joan O'Brien) travel to Sun Valley, Idaho for a Christmas-break ski vacation. There they meet Gary and his artist friend Armand (Fabrizio Mioni); Senator Morrison, who wants to solicit the youth vote; and Lynne's husband.
The Dave Clark Five, The Animals, and other musical acts perform in the background as Gary and Armand romance Terry and Sue Ann, respectively, while Lynne and her husband spend the entire vacation in their room. Senator Morrison courts Marge and shows that he is a talented dancer, but an embarrassing newspaper photograph threatens his reelection. The others demonstrate his support among the young by holding a successful telephone poll with musical performances.

Editors note: With such a plot how on earth did this movie get made?
People make fun of this tune and call it elevator music, but I seriously rate it among the best melodies composed in the 20th century.
Thanks for expressing your views.
Absolutely the greatest!!
You are referring of course, to the scene in the movie The Blues Brothers where Jake and Elwood are going up the elevator with this song as Muzak playing in the background.
To me elevator music is Phil Collins or U2, this stuff is great but too cool for the mainstream to understand
I love elevator music.
Her voice is so cool and gentle, her bearing slightly hesitant, nervous, but pure.
And no autotune!
Righteously upright while staggering slightly with sex appeal pouring from her incessant slave appeal vocal cords while innocent smells of stupor drain her love nest.....dude chill
I think this singer died today 😢 I like her voice
@@lunis471 She did. Another icon gone.
@@karenbanda5942 awe I thought I'd heard right and I was only listening to her the other day yes end of another era
RIP Astrud Gilberto :( Such a unique, iconic voice
I heartily concur !!
RIP
This track is a great masterpiece and unique as its a Brazilian bossa nova and jazz song.
Became an international hit. This version had been shortened from the version on the album Getz/Gilberto (recorded in March 1963, released in March 1964), which had also included the Portuguese lyrics sung by Astrud's then husband João Gilberto. In the US, the single peaked at number five on the Billboard Hot 100, and went to number one for two weeks on the Easy Listening chart. Overseas it peaked at number 29 on the UK Singles Chart, and charted highly throughout the world.
It is believed to be the second-most recorded pop song in history, after "Yesterday" by The Beatles. The song was inducted into the Latin Grammy Hall of Fame in 2001. In 2004, it was one of 50 recordings chosen that year by the Library of Congress to be added to the National Recording Registry.
I agree 👍
I don't want to be a bore, but in pure english, which may not be your language, you cannot qualify absolutes if you wish to make sense.You cannot say *so*unique *so dead or 'so' pregnant because they are *Absolute* terms; either x is unique or it is not unique,thus no *so* unique. no very, no nearly , no anything, unique. That is a species of shibboleth- you either pass or fail, you either get it or you do not get it. There are many such shibboleths and I'm sure you can suppose others; the trick is to detect them as shibboleths which in itself could be and often is, a shibboleth
This girl's voice is so unique and beautiful, the coldness, "shyness" and gentleness is so beautiful, the melody is just beautiful. it's a masterpiece
She died just yesterday...
@@ZU..02- so sadd
@@ohtravo997 yeah 😿
No piecing, no tattoos , no colored hair,. Just class
There's no "coldness" whatsoever...just the opposite.
everything about this is classy --- the singing, the setting and decor, the band
it's like a painting that you wish you could project yourself into.
Sooo very authentic retro, way beyond what is expected now
A very young but extremely talented girl / live etc, the real. Deal
Couldn’t agree more! Back when men were men and women were women.
Like a Rockwell painting. Such a pretty Christmas-like setting.
YES
The racism isn't. No black? 👎
Rest in peace, Astrud Gilberto. Thank you for your music.
A great saxophonist and a great singer. Perfect.
I was 19 and this was the sexiest and most romantic song I ever heard. RIP Astraud. You "WERE" the girl from Ipanema! 💙
1964. I was 9, listening to AM radio-The Beatles, The Stones, Motown-then this piece of magic floated above it all.
Me too! 4th grade.
Hell yeah... what a time to be a kid with a radio, in the 60s. All that incredible music from every direction... but then came the 70s... : (
me too, I was 14.
@@minaelahian6308 Me too, I was 14 & would go into ecstacies when this tune came on.
❤❤❤
This is a masterpiece of Astrud's shy and delicate voice and Stan Getz's lilting sax work. Great to see her smile at the end of the song to the applause.
Ela faleceu hoje.

😭😭😭
Agree about the smile.
Too bad Getz was a total a-hole for not recognizing or compensating her for her special contribution to the success of the song.
Astrud was very nervous in this clip yet to her amazement, the tune became a million seller and her signature song!
I am sorry you are deaf and blind. You are also mean and heartless. You would pluck a rose from a garden thinking it to be a weed. You have no concept of sensitivity and beauty. Have a nice life being miserable......
Jeffery Slade shut it
Yeah...Thats My Girl Right There :) :)
douchebag in human form! well played idiot
Robert Velez viva tom jobim
Rest in peace Astrud
Thank you for your unique sound your voice will live on.
I love her voice-so silky smooth! And a face like a fairytale princess! She was perfect!
😢
Rip princess 👸
R.I.P Astrud Gilberto, years from people yet born will enjoy your singing.
Indubitably !!
She was so shy. She had to be CONVINCED she could sing. She is at once so shy and TALENTED that it is a marvel and a deep and lasting pleasure to watch her. She just breaks my heart and I still love her.
Good singing is when the result is good, not whether it's technically correct or even in tune.
She's definitely shy ....but little does she knoe that she's an Icon.....I love her faint dissonance in her voice ....it sets her apart from many...and makes her legendary
@@miyalys it's perfectly in tune. It's just an unusual tune.
@@miyalys That’s the absolute BEST definition of singing/vocalizing I’ve ever heard. So many, many popular hits were performed by people who might not be able to sing many more songs, but they nailed that one perfectly. By their interpretation, how they chose to phrase.
@@Carefree6714 Thanks! Totally agree regarding many popular hits.
I'd say one can find more technically proficient singers in many choirs or in X Factor than fx. Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen or Nico, but to me this shows how overall unimportant technical proficiency is compared to other factors in musical expression/artisanship.
This was a period when you had to know how to "sing" versus what you hear now. This was talent at utmost!!!!!
*What popular stuff you hear now
There's so many hidden talents and hidden gems outside the pop world, and stuff outside the common Western Music.
That's a strange thing to say. Perhaps you need to get out more.
@@Flicklix No, I don't. I get out very frequently. Thank you!!!
No, I cannot agree with that. There is a tendency by some people to trash singers who are attractive, thinking that they got where they are on looks alone. But there are a whole LOT of female singers active today who are also very talented (for example, Dua Lipa, Ava Max, Norah Jones, Kacey Musgraves, Pink, … I could go on).
To say the least!
Rest in Peace Astrid Gilberto. Thank you for the beautiful music.
This is when music had both quality and class. I hope Astrud knows in her heart how much we love her.
The early 60s are missed so very much.
This is why God gave us ears!
👍
One of the most beautiful songs ever written, tortured over time by overexposure, but still carries you along with its perfect melodies and startling chord progressions. Astrud is a little robotic for my taste (I don't know what Basia was thinking) but she's got the perfect voice to deliver this song to immortality.
I don't think she's robotic. She's lady-like, gentle and non-pushy
Yes, I agree: I think she overegged the coolness. A beautiful and classic song none the less.
Astrud suffered of chronic shy that she had since childhood. A singer friend called Nara Leao helped her to deal better with problem.
@@marcostripoli2849 , agreed. She died yesterday in the Philadelphia metro area. Most people in Philly had no idea she had been living there for decades.
Late,but this song is kinda like the theme from"A Summer Place",it gets worn out but it's still worth a re-visit every now and then.
Rest in peace, Astrud. Thanks for your lovely samba & bossa nova.
1940~2023
What an unusual contrast. Snowing outside and inner Astrud is remembering us how warm and sunny your country is.
RIP Astrud. A beautiful song by a beautiful singer.
RIP Astrud what a beautiful woman with an amazing voice. It feels like a dream holiday. Just heard on the news
RIP Astrud, I was a 12 year old in Australia when this song was released, I still love it to this day as a 70 yo. It’s influenced my songwriting over the years 😢
It's a magic song, no doubt about that.
Please I *beg* you Never use those asinine infantile symbols that *only* retarded children use -Do yourself that favour.
Here in 2020, would kill for a time machine!
You'd be surprised at how life has changed--mainly for the better since people dream and make things happen.Enjoy the time machine called RECORDINGS!
Please Paypal me $60,000 so I can build the flux capacitor for the time machine.
I was obsessed with this song when I first came out. I would listen to the radio for hours just to hear it a few times.
Classic and timeless, once it's a tune in your head, hard to let it go!
RIP Astrud. Thanks for rendering the beautiful songs
It is a masterpiece, the equivalent of a "Monalisa" painting in "pop bossanova music", she is an extension of Vinícius de Moraes and Antônio Carlos Jobim, her singing goes in completely harmony with the musicians, the music and the lyrics, like a flute with an human emotional feeling and it's pure bossanova, with the real intentions of fusion between seduction and melancholy
Thanks Pablo for checking in with ua.
There was an actual girl from Ipanema that this song was written about, I read an article about her. And I was fortunate to see Astrud perform at Shelley's Mannhole in Hollywood, can't even remember the year. But it was a wonderful show and I got to sit up close to the stage too! RIP Astrud!
Rest in peace Astrud Gilberto. Thank you for your music.
Timeless!! Sounds just as good today (2023) as when it was first released. (I was 6 at the time.)
I'm Brazilian. This music is a very beutiful. Congratulations Stan Getz and Astrud Gilberto!
thy send their thanks
Don't really need Stan here... not in the same league... not the right song for him.
This music is so beautiful and heavenly .
Hermoso 💕
Hermoso 💕
There is some kind of melancholy beauty in this song that really hits home in my heart, glad I found this
She does a lot of other great songs too. Classic and timeless.
If you don’t have the original version from the classic Getz/Gilberto album, you really haven’t heard The Girl from Ipanema. One of the greatest jazz albums of all time.
Bossa Nova, at its finest.
Happy 79th birthday to Astrud Gilberto, Astrud's voice with that air of innocence, is just ripe for this Bossa Nova classic from the 60s,
watching the video you really catch that 60s vibe too, co written by Antonio Carlos Jobim
Thank you for visiting my channel.
An update: (as if you didn't hear). We lost her today, June 6, 2023. She was 83.
Perfect melding of music and voice.
Love it.😊
The Sound and the Sweet.
Thank you Stan and Astrud.
It's 100% pure class act!
I was born 1961 so when I heard this on the radio I fell in love with her voice . By the way she looks just how I imagined she would .
Great combo of a snowy winter scene in the background and a song of sun and sea. Astrud's voice is lovely for this tune.
Jazz classic. I've never seen Stan Getz before. What a thrill. 💜
Thank you for the music, beautiful Astrud.
Why is it so hard to find music like this anymore?
Willow Devereaux Because Shit Singers like Kyne West and Drake flood UA-cam
talent Willow talent.
Because music styles are born out of their time, and while there is still a lot of contemporary Bossa Nova being produced, it's largely a faint copy (and copycat) of the classics.
Willow Devereaux there's a lot ... britney rihanna aguilera 😂😂😂😂😂
Cuz it ain't 1964 anymore😥
As a Brazilian, i can confirm this is the best music of we country
Some music is timeless. This song never ages. Pure, sad, and lovely.
R.I.P Astrud, your voice is trully beautiful
Astrud may be gone but her voice will forever live on through this beautiful bossa nova jazz standard. Rest in Peace.
This was my dad's favourite song, then it was mine, now it's my 18 year old's. Timeless.
One of the coolest pieces of music ever written and performed!
Takes you back to a better time without a doubt. I loved the hairstyles and dresses the ladies wore. Born in 66 I think the best time to be alive.
Kelsey i adore your comment i feel the same way as you x i was 21 u years old when this classic came out , now im 78 years old ...I still get the same thrills listening to this stunning girl x i always wanted to be her xxlol Jane x i will always love the 60s era xxxx
Sheer genius- the song,the musical backing and most of all the sublime voice of Astrud Gilberto which continues to haunt my imagination after all these years.Requiescat in pace.
Stan Getz really added to the beauty of this song as did Astrud's husband, I believe, who sang the first part in Portuguese.
RIP Astrud. One of the most lovely and soothing voices of all time. And what a beauty she was!!
RIP, Joao Gilberto.
Getz and Gilberto, what a great combination! Such talent.
This is before my time , but this one of the smoothest songs ever made!
Classic.
Too bad they don't do songs like this anymore.
I heard this song when I was a small boy and fell in love with it - I still love its bossa nova feel - the essence of 60’s cool!
SHE IS SO LOVABLE.

She sure is

@@flordonordeste2023 English please. I'm an Indian but I speak English. I do have a little Mexican blood in me.
@@robertdry7271 she died this morning.
In that distant, gorgeous,voice there is much SAUDADE...
This song is so different from other music. Sounds so great and cool.
Thanks for viewing my channel.
As a boomer who used to surf back in the day, I used to sit out waiting for a wave (no one else out) while singing this song pretending I was as exotically beautiful as this song … such wonderful childhood & teens memories are these. Got to see her sing this at Jazz Alley Seattle late 90’s … was so fortunate!
Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, each one she passes
Goes "a-a-a-h"
When she walks she's like a samba
When she walks, she's like a samba
That swings so cool and sways so gentle
That when she passes, each one she passes
Goes "a-a-a-h"
Oh, but I watch her so sadly
How can I tell her I love her
Yes, I would give my heart gladly
But each day as she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead, not at me
Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, I smile, but she
Doesn't see. She just doesn't see
No, she just doesn't
неверный текст!!!
She is expressionless, seems petrified, but can be forgiven for the most sensual bossa nova song ever recorded. This track is what introduced me to jazz when I get as a kid.
Wow….! The whole ambiance of this seminal yet revealing video just screams 1964!! Love it! 👍
Just heard/read about this.
I now dedicate this song, "HER" song, TO Astrud, and to my mother, who loved this song Soooo SOOOO much.
"🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾"
She is my absolute favorite female vocalist of all time. Im not even much of a jazz or bossa nova guy. She is the stuff wet dreams are made of though. That voice is an angels
What a rendition.A beautiful woman.Sultry singing. This is backed up by the coolest saxophone.
Sax isn't in her league though... seems irrelevant and distracts from her magic spell.
Rest in Peace, Astrud & João 🇧🇷 Thanks for the memories; ur spirit will live on :)) 🩷🩵💚
Such perfection. This song changed my life by introducing me to a wholly different genre of music with some of the best artists ever, it was stepping into another world. Thank you Astrud and Stan, what a wonderful gift you have given me, you have forever enriched my life.
Thanks Kevin for checking in with us.
the Singer she looked beautiful in her youth, especially how she sings this unique tune.
My Favorite Brazilian Song. Sung Beautifully By Astrud, Written By Tony Jobin.
Astrud je a zůstane stále perfektní i když není moc kvalitní záznam, kdokoliv zkouší zpívat její retrohity,nemá šanci !
Amazing this is the very first time I actually saw the face behind the voice. Always loved this song
It always gets better each time I hear this beautiful ❤️ song ❤
Descanse en paz la gran cantante brasileña, Astrud Gilberto, the Girl from Ipanema, fallecida a los 83 años. Pasará a la Historia de la Música.
The collaboration of Stan Getz, Astrud Gilberto, Jõao Gilberto, Tom Jobím, Sebestão Neto and Milton Banana on the studio recording of A Garota de Ipanema created a subtle, light and airy swing that carried listeners along as if they were riding a wave. Afterwards came at least a hundred regrettable covers, all of which tried to recreate that sublime groove and the magic of the moment; and all of which failed miserably. The harder they tried, the worse it got: They pushed the tempo, they created overblown orchestrations, they hired batteries of percussionists, but none of that managed to capture the understated power that Stan Getz and Astrud Gilberto commanded with such seeming effortlessness.
True that!
1964 and I was 2 years old, but somehow this tune reminds me of being a kid again.
And so today I have just learned that 🎶"The Girl from Ipanema"🎶 is gone @ 83. Another part of my Childhood has passed away 😭. I ALWAYS LOVED THIS SONG every since I first heard it, in '64 I was 5 years old, I'm 64 now. May God Bless You and May You Rest In Heavenly Peace 🙏🏽✝️🎶🎤❤️🌹🕊️☮️
Iconic...
What a sound, what an era! 🎶🌊🎶
Ah, the memories of this song playing in NYC diners back in the 70s
Subscribed. Love this, please post more! This kind of music is my favorite. And how fun to see Stan Getz, I have never seen a video of him, or of Astrid. Thanks for making my day!😊
What she does from 0:35 on is superhuman. Pitch perfect, pure intonation without vibrato, incredible timing, notes beginning and ENDING just right - over a chord progression that changes key in every line. All this effortless and relaxed. Damn, it takes incredible skill to sing like that.
What a joy to see this clip. The understated classy elegant of eras gone by.
The best ever historical VERSION! Take care and be happy with this incredible music! Merci beaucoup from Paris France. Emmanuel
RIP Miss Gilberto, thank you for your artistry
As a budding musician in the 60’s, I was attracted to stuff like this, even from childhood. Bacharach, Jim Webb and Brian Wilson provided other rich, harmonic delights.
Goodness knows where a youngster interested in harmonic musical progressions in popular culture would go to nowadays.
Astrid Gilberto and Stan Getz are phenomenal!! Her sincerity is very touching! But Stan Getz brings jazz to an extraordinary level!! He is the true star of this song!! STAN GETZ!!
Without doubt one of the smoothest songs ever, beautiful voice ; she will be missed.
Pleasant enough voice, but she was no Callas, or holiday, or Piaffe.
I was 7 years old when that song hit the radio, and l still like it very much today in 2023.
Interesting to note that Stan Getz, the saxophone player in the group, was instrumental in introducing the Bossa Nova to America. Also, the gifted vibraphone player, Gary Burton, would go onto a 50 year celebrate jazz career.
Made in a time of melodic music, set in an environment of man made comfort. Animals adjust to the environment, whereas beautiful man creates the environment to suit himself. This is a priceless example of virtue, which is sadly lacking today.
Such a beautiful song 🎶
Rest in peace Astrud, this music will forever be timeless for more years to come
So beautifully 60's music.....
Amazing how she sings without any expression on her face at all-- a face of stone.
but I think she does this deliberately--she's both singing and *acting* as the girl.
larrydirtybird I know it's very sad.
It's her German side. Like Marlene Dietrich's "Falling in Love Again."
yet some how she is so cool with it.
early robot
I first heard this song when I was in the 4th grade in 1965 I use to like this girl in my class and that song reminded me of her, very beautiful silky song, RIP Astrud Gilberto.
She sings this perfectly & the horn is great too!
