## Appears on

### [Garota de Ipanema](https://waxonia.com/track/antonio-carlos-jobim--garota-de-ipanema/)

*1962 · No. 2 in [Bossa Nova](https://waxonia.com/genre/bossa-nova/)*

Written at a bar table about a girl walking to the beach, and now perhaps the second most recorded song in existence. Familiarity has not damaged the harmony.

### [Insensatez](https://waxonia.com/track/antonio-carlos-jobim--insensatez/)

*1961 · No. 5 in [Bossa Nova](https://waxonia.com/genre/bossa-nova/)*

A descending line borrowed from Chopin, and the most desolate thing Jobim wrote. Vinicius de Moraes's lyric accuses the listener directly.
