These girls sang as one. Musical perfection. Musical genius, is the sound of Sergio Mendez and Brazil ‘66. Sergio, like Stevie, was born with the happiness gene. Just an amazing assemblage of artists.
I only discovered that last October. First saw her face in the Come What May music video this year. Loved her voice, found her pretty and loved that she had a sense of humor too. Looked her up in Wikipedia and wow... Never knew she was one of the driving force for Brasil 66 that I've listened too growing up. Fell in love her more.
Fabulous! My Dad introduced me to Sergio Mendez & Brasil 66 when I was a child and I love them still. Rest In Peace, Dad. Frank Jones December 17, 1935 - November 15, 2019.
FROM SPAIN...love Sergio Méndez,MUSIC .....my name is Sergio too LOLOL GREETINGS FROM SPAIN...sorry about YOUR dad...really he was a very good taste of mood with music specially... listenin Sergio Méndez... greetings!
Sergio Mendes and Brazil '66 is the most beautiful and purist form of music and vocals ever!!!!!! Lani Hall has the most beautiful voice I have ever heard spanning the 60s to 2022!!!!!!! The keyboards, rhythm, and vocals are superb beyond comparison!!!!!!!!
Why does Lani get all the "credit" and all the fame, when Janis and her are always singing together simultaneously. I find it very hard to distinguish between the two voices when they perform, and ... there are not any "vocal solos" going on -- it is always them as a duet together.
This was a golden time.I was a young teen but I really appreciated the beauty of this gorgeous music.It lifts the spirits.In our trouble filled world we can know that people don't just destroy.They create beautiful art. Sergio Mendes and Brazil 66 created a bit of heaven.
I would extend that appreciation to the entire Bossa Nova phenomenon. This was also the time of Antonio Carlos Jobim and Joao Gilberto (plus his singer wife Astrud, who became internationally famous singing "The Girl from Ipanema."
Hey Becky, the first time I heard sergio mendes...I was six. My father was driving on the van Wyck expressway with me in the back seat listening to 93 WPAT and one of their songs came on. From that day on I was hooked and I mean hooked. At six you can imagine the kind of heckling I received from my friends. I didn't care. I've been in love with sergio and bossa nova in general ever since, and that was 1968. At 60 now and still can't get enough of it. You my dear have great taste in music. Peace and love.
Lani and Janis deserve a very unique special place in music history. The dual effect of the voices merging into that Whole Sound that was the signature of these many incredible Brasil 66 songs (there are approximately 24! of these scintillatingly shiny, glossy, elegant songs recorded).
Absolutely superb ... takes me right back to when I was a young woman, and the world was a kind, intelligent, beautiful place. Thank you very much indeed.

Farewell and job superbly done, Sergio Mendez. Along with Herb Alpert and Burt Bacharach, your brilliance makes up what I like to refer to as the 60s 'musical TRIFECTA.' Oh how we need your smooth, sophisticated, bosa-nova interpretations of catchy melodies more NOW than ever -- particularly when acknowledging the cultural wasteland in which we presently find ourselves. And one more thing: SO WISH dresses were STILL that short.
@@snugglethorn No, Wanda Sa was part of Brasil'65. The only Brasilian female vocalist who sang for Brasil'66 was Bibi Vogel who teamed with Lani Hall for live performances in1966 and were replaced by Janis Hansen
The sound of their layered voices just gorgeous. Both singers simultaneously singing the lyrics with expert precision combining so exactly. The combining of their voices into that ultra memorable single sound.
@ It's Janis singing solo at 1:45 into the video. At the start of the song, I'm not sure anybody really knows. I've heard it's Lani Hall multi-tracked, I've heard it's both Lani and Janis, I've heard it's Lani and another woman but not Janis, and every other permutation.
@limeyleafsfan Janis Hansen actually did the solo lead vocal parts on The Look Of Love, which was on their next album Look Around and became their biggest single. Ironically, and unfortunately, by the time it was a radio hit she was out of the group - Mendes dismissed the entire original lineup after that album to form a brand new band, although Lani Hall ultimately returned to continue as the primary lead vocalist (I believe at Herb Alpert's request).
@limeyleafsfan Actually I just discovered the existence of an album recorded in 1969 by a group called the Carnival, which was a vocal quartet formed by Janis Hansen and fellow ex-Brasil '66 member José Soares, who is the percussionist in this video. Despite being produced by Bones Howe, who was a heavy-hitter at the time, and having A-list session musicians playing on it, the album didn't do well and the group disbanded without recording a follow-up. Some of their songs are on UA-cam - here's one: ua-cam.com/video/yUrTIVZup2I/v-deo.html I really like their sound - sort of Brasil' 66-Meets-The-Fifth-Dimension, leaning a little more toward the latter. I'd love to get the CD but it seems like it's very hard to find now. I believe Hansen subsequently married and left the music business but eventually returned to doing music projects for herself. Sadly she passed away in 2017. You can find out more if you Google her, but beware: there is also an actress named Janis Hansen who was on the Odd Couple TV show in the 1970's, who is not the same person. :)
Classic.!!! The fabulous music of Sergio Mendes will stay with till the end... and I'm STILL trying to play it finger style on guitar though been playing rock and roll and blues plectrum style since around 1965.!!! Best wishes from Plymouth UK.!!
Very clever Sergio ! Not the most handsome guy on the block - but surround yourself with real class ladies and hey presto BINGO ! A typical Aquarian ploy . But you know I am glad u did it because it works wonders for my well being and hopefully everyone who sees/hears your music is taken to that special place where only music can take you.
The girls have such a heavenly voice. Pretty and sexy too. And the rhythm is so catchy. Wonderful adaption of the song from the Umbrellas of Cherbough. Love this much, despite the years...
These ladies voices were soooooo heavenly, so sweet........ and the bossa nova rhythms are so catchy and cool. And the song from Umbrellas of Cherbough is a favourite. Love it!
Another timeless, elegant clip. I just love the "stand alone" graceful gentleman with the percussion instrument (apologies, I do not have the correct terminology)
The rhythm of this song is very cool, the lyrics are nice and the voices of the girls added to the good music, make it one of my favorites of all times.

This version with Janis and Lani was better than the later version. Sergio fired everyone in the late 1960s, only Lani returned at Herb’s insistence. The two women’s voices were so close it was hard to tell which of them was singing. Mark II of the group with seven members were not as appealing and ended in late 1960s.
No, Sergio fired the entire group, American Janis Jansen and bassist BobMatthews, Brasilian Jose Soares and ace-drummer Joao Palma with the exception of Lani Hall, who later became Mrs Herb Alpert, co- founder of A&M record label for which this group cut 3 LPs
I prefer this lineup. I know the story of why Sergio (I call him Sergio) fired everybody except Lani Hall. Seems severe. Oh well, the following lineup kicked ass too. Just not as well as Janis Hansen and the rest here did.
@@studenttime1650 Sergio was known for staying in luxury hotels and made the rest stay in the equivalent of Motel 6. So, they decided to confront him. He fired them all or they all resigned. Lani, soon after, asked for her job back., Supposedly that was at the urging of her soon-to-be husband, Herb Alpert.

Also married Herb Alpert!
Why are you all so stubborn. Does Lani Hall sing alone? By chance, Is there another phenomenal vocalist, or do I dream?
This was magic never to be done again! A fan for decades! I have to sing along. Lani and Hansen were heaven with their blended vocals.

I used to think it was just one voice - so perfectly they sing together.
Janis rarely sung on studio recordings. Lani was pretty much to voice of the group.
So loved his music.Saddened to hear of his passing.But his music will live on.RIP.
Absolutely superb ... takes me right back to when I was a young woman, and the world was a kind, intelligent, beautiful place.
Thank you very much indeed.
Lani Hall owns the most perfect female voice in history. Clear, precise and powerful.

FROM SPAIN love Sergio Méndez an specially lani hall SHE had a beautiful N wonderful an amazin voice ,,greetings FROM SPAIN
Sometimes when the video shows Janis singing it is Lani’s voice. It’s Lani’s voice that’s matters.
agreed , shes fantastic
Mendes was a great arranger, pianist.
I saw Sergio Mendes & Brasil 66 in DC back in 1969. I really can`t get this music
out of my head. Love the music still after all these years.
Lucky you!!!
Brubeck influened Mendes and Mendes influenced all of us!
Lani Hall so sultry and gorgeous not just her voice. As I stated on max que nada so many female screamers errr singers could learn fro lani
Listening to this awesome mastery music performances relaxes me and takes me to where I dream of being. Love Lani. wow. so beautiful.
One of the best music groups to come out of the ‘60s! Really underrated!
Timeless beautiful music!!
I love that percussion player with the shaker!! AWESOME!
I noticed that, too!
The artistry of Sergio Mendes and his wonderful musicians and singers is almost beyond the ability of words to describe. I'm in heaven!
In Concur!
It's a pity that he quarelled and fired the entire group here( the best ever among Sergio Mendes)..except for Lani.
Oh yeah!
Farewell and job superbly done, Sergio Mendez.

This is so perfect. Those key changes / modulations are genius level.
The magical notes of Michel Legrand. RIP
Brazil '66 performing a Michel Legrand song. What a combination!
The girls have such a heavenly voice. Pretty and sexy too. And the rhythm is so catchy. Wonderful adaption of the song from the Umbrellas of Cherbough. Love this much, despite the years...
Hi, They are Lani Hall and Gracias Leporache I think

So many good songs in Les Parapluies de Cherbourg.
@@jaysparc Indeed. The whole movie is so unique, no speaking part but all singing only. I Will Wait For You etc all so memorable.
Bought their first album back in 66 and saw them in person in 69 in Chicago at the Auditorium … One of the best groups ever...
What a sound. Beautiful vocals.
Nice cover from Michel Legrand's hit (love the back vocals with Lani Hall)
These ladies voices were soooooo heavenly, so sweet........ and the bossa nova rhythms are so catchy and cool. And the song from Umbrellas of Cherbough is a favourite. Love it!
Love the guy playing the Pringles can!
Me to its so out there this could only come from exotic Brazil.
...I made the same thing in Kindergarten and played it for years...
Over 50 years ago and still sounds so fresh. Today's music doesn't even last 2 years.
Sergio's piano interlude is so damned good. While others were listening to The Beatles, I was listening to this.
Another timeless, elegant clip. I just love the "stand alone" graceful gentleman with the percussion instrument (apologies, I do not have the correct terminology)
What a cool, sexy rendition of a great song. This must have been one terrific concert. Thanks for sharing.
Stunning voices great blend wonderful
They just don't write music or sing like that anymore, sadly.
The rhythm of this song is very cool, the lyrics are nice and the voices of the girls added to the good music, make it one of my favorites of all times.
Listening to this changes your brain chemistry in a good way!
There is actually no one like Lani Hall, a unique vocalist.
I prefer Janis Hansen, surprised?
The girl's' vocal voices and inflections take the music to the highest level.
saw them do a concert at the university of north dakota field house late 66. FANTASTIC !
thank you so much, beautiful music, allright!
what a great song, what a great band
My goodness…when these girls sang and started dancing, you couldn’t take your eyes off of them. They were absolutely enchanting, and so sexy!
B I G Janis Hansen fan here. Rest in glorious peace, you angel
Janis did several songs on the album...
Me too BTW My favorite song that she did is Constant Rain
What a babe. She's in her prime here too. Maybe 25 or 26 years old here in 1967. RIP.
love Janis Hansen!
Unforgettable Janis, what a class, a voice, a style. Forever in our hearts❤❤❤
I love Lani but I love Janis too !
Loved Lani, what a strong and beautiful voice. Very easy on the eyes!!
Lani.... Lani.... Lani.... Once again I'll sleep well tonight with your heavenly voice in my dreams.
Lani Hall had one of the most extraordinary voices of the '60s
This original Lani / Janis Hansen lineup was fantastic.
Lani chased away many dark episodes of my pre-teen years. I will never forget!

Let someone start believing in you

Let him find you and watch what happens
Cold
No, I won't believe your heart is cold
Maybe just afraid to be broken again
Let someone with a deep love to give
Give that deep love to you
And what magic you'll see
Let someone give his heart
Someone who cares like me
Let someone give his heart
Cold
No, I won't believe your heart is cold
Maybe just afraid to be broken again
Let someone with a deep love to give
Give that deep love to you
And what magic you'll see
Let someone give his heart
Someone who cares like me
Let someone give his heart
Someone who cares like me
Someone who cares like me
Someone who cares like me
Someone who cares like me

Não é da minha época pois nasci 01/12/1984 mais amo ouvir os clássicos ❤👏👏👏👏👏👏
Excelente grupo...Sergio nunca mais voltou....
Amazing that nobody outlined the fabulous rhythm behind Mendes, especially one of a kind fantastic drummer, the late Joao Palma
Sr. Palma was tha man
I love this configuration of the group.the drummers knocks me out,little kit but he drives it home with his groove
Fatta veramente da Dio!A parte il playback,che bel suonare!...
Fantástico Sérgio Mendes!
Humm... I have never heard this one before, but you know what? I like it, I like it a lot !
Janis' line,"Cold, no I don't believe....." exquisite. Rolling piano, rich voice. Wow
Janis was amazing!
The cat with the shaker gets his own riser/. What I'm talking about. This is the hipness of the sixties. Oh yeah... Sergio solos his ass off
He just adds to the carefree celebration of joy atmosphere.
It's a can of Pringles.
Best song of the 60ts!!
I do wish so many of Brasil 66's TV appearances were NOT lip-synched, tho.....this one of course was....canned completely, except perhaps for piano and drums maybe
It’s all “lip sync’d”. From the record.
That is because, at the time, the custom was to lip synch. The 1960's television technology would have made it difficult to do it live. Plus, the theory was the artists wanted to plug the record so why not sound (exactly) like the record? One major exception was the Beatles on Ed Sullivan in '64.
