Michael Franks - Rendezvous In Rio Lyrics






Once January arrives
Soon as the mercury dies
I start to wonder how long it will take
Before my weakened will power just breaks
And I'm convincing you

To rendezvous in Rio
Dance the samba in Bahia
On the beach we'll chill
So atmospherically contented in Brazil

Rendezvous in Rio
Fly for breakfast to Bahia
In the heat we'll chill
Copacabana and banana in Brazil

Once winter does attack nice
Soon as the snow turns to ice
Don't be surprised if as I've said before
You find my passport and me at your door
'Cause all I need is you

To rendezvous in Rio
Dance the samba in Bahia
On the beach we'll chill
So atmospherically contented in Brazil

Rendezvous in Rio
Fly for breakfast to Bahia
In the heat we'll chill
Perfectly sunburnt and cooked chausseur in Brazil

    I've been going through his entire catalogue of music, album by album, just when I think his best work was achieved, I hear another album. WOW... When we all reach that point in life where love is the only thing worth remembering, think of this man and his music, then reflect back.

    Ferney, I owe you big time for that collection of Michael Franks albums. Now i have the enthusiasm to go on long solitary walks in the Tropical Forrest. It almost seems that that is exactly what he wan't us to do with his music.

  53. F.... s....

    I just suscribed to your channel.I'm a french admirer of Mickael franks's songs.Thanks for sharing.Have a nice week . These songs are a real escape in Brazil and other areas of the world. They are good for the ears and the mind.

  54. d.... l....

    Michael Franks' voice is reminiscent of a warm & gentle tropical breeze. Ya Dig!!!

  55. d.... l....

    Michael Franks' voice is reminiscent of a warm & gentle tropical breeze. Ya Dig!!!

  56. C.... G....

    Michael's universal mandate was to help to sooth the hearts and souls of all of us on this planet.

  57. S.... E....

    from the time I heard Popsicle toes in 1976 I was HOOKED on Michael Franks..... still am 40 yrs later

  58. D.... K....

    amazing music.............

  59. e.... o....

    Emeka Ofomata....legendary with superior lyrics and awesome rendering. End of the road, new beginnings.

  60. X.... D....

    He's able to extract silence from the air and create sound.

  61. G.... M....

    Understated, underestimated, midunderstood and most unusual. Michael has always been in a class all by himself.Who else combines such playful creative lyrics with such sophisticated  and moody smooth jazz tunes. Some have the top notch lyrics (Simon, Dylan, etc) but they don't do jazz. Not just the lyrics but how they jiving with the syncopation brilliance of "Meet me in the Deerpark". So yes, a class all his own and doing it for decades. What a champ!

    G.... M....

    Definitely an all time great!!!!!!

  62. B.... F....

    Chemistry of love reminds me of the years between 1975 and 79' when he had the Crusaders backing him in the studio.

  63. T.... O....

    love all his music

  64. d.... b....

    Franks...calms my mind and sooth my soul....

    d.... b....

    Beautifully put as you said it the way it is...

    d.... b....

    Absolutely

  65. B.... B....

    Long ago I saw him concert here in Phoenix. I wrote him on a match book while I stood in line to get in that I loved his recent album, Sleeping Gypsy and it's Brazilian Samba sound. To my delight he evidently read my little matchbook message and spoke from the stage regarding his recent vacation in Brazil, the Jobim influence, I think he met him and what inspiration it was for him. Have loved his music for years. He is a consummate artist and a breath of fresh air in music. Thank you for being so original, Mr. Michael Franks. What fun listening to your songs!

    B.... B....

    It's gratifying to read your comments about Michael Franks. His is a rare talent -- a gift for drawing on the Brazilian music tradition to create his own original songs. And of course the gentle intelligence that is evident in his unique voice.

  66. F.... ....

    I'm your new subscriber. I am a Franks fan. Thank you for sharing his classic songs with his fan base.

  67. F.... ....

    Oh, and did I forget to mention Scatsville, I LOVE Scatsville!

  68. F.... ....

    Michael's still got it going on after all these years.  Samba de Soho totally rocks!  Love you SOJG!!

  69. M.... C....

    I was introduced to Michael as a teenager, and since I never looked back, I was fortunate to see him live at various jazz converts, also one particular show with four play, absolutely sublime, and of course, he inspires me with many choreography for dance routine's...

  70. s.... ....

    Fan of Michael Franks since 1979 smooth jazz perfectionist others Kenny Rankin, Donald Fagen, Steely Dan, Pat Metheny Group and Joni Mitchell 😊
