Corcovado (Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars) performed by Sarah Vaughn ()
The most beautiful, sensual song I have ever heard in my life. It feels like a warm, tucked-in, comfortable sigh from a lover nestling in on your shoulder, holding you ever tighter while whispering words of love in your ear. Try to top that.
The Divine One pours herself into this number completely. Her serene confidence breathes a kind of hyper-life into the lyrics. But the way she caresses the melody and strokes it so adeptly with her brilliant vocals sends me right over the top every time.
If I ever fall in love again, the woman of my affections will, in my wildest, most fantastic dreams, melt with me on this.
Please excuse the sap...
