Ice, frozen snow, dying plants - grimness abounds, dear reader.
What we need is a little warmth in our lives! And, as today is the 80th birthday of that maestro of the bossa nova Sérgio Mendes, I think this classic number of his provides the perfect solution:
Mas que Nada
Sai da minha frente
Eu quero passar
Pois o samba está animado
O que eu quero é sambar.
Oh, come on!
Get out of my way
I want to pass through
Because the samba is animated
What I want is to dance samba.
I'm sipping a caipirinha by a beach as we speak, sweetie!
In my mind, anyhow.
Oh wow - look at those earrings! You could knock your teeth out with those.
