BRAZIL - Johnny Mathis

It's September 30! Happy Birthday, Johnny. May your birthday be as wonderful as you are.

What better song than "Brazil" to celebrate! Johnny obviously loves to sing it in concert and we always love to hear him do so. "Brazil" is a true celebration of the joy that music brings!

The song was released as a bonus track in Johnny's 1998, "Ultimate Hits Collection." The CD is available for purchase. as is the individual mp3 of of this wonderful song.

"Brazil," composed by S.K. Russell and A. Barroso, was originally recorded in 1986 by Johnny Mathis with Henry Mancini.



Obrigado Brasil..... (Thank you, Brazil)
I sure hope I wrote that correctly. Your country is beautiful.












Photos: A special thank you to Maria (19Rebel57) for lending me her lovely daughter's photos (woman with fan and woman in doorway). And, I also thank her for the wonderful photo of Johnny Mathis at the end of the video, taken in Brazil while he performed there on tour in 1975.

Brazilian photos from a paid program and a couple from the public domain with fantastic photographers who share their talents with the world. Thank you. Forty-one photos were used in this video and I had several more of beautiful Brazil but I couldn't fit them all. Brazil, you are lovely.
