Sergio Mendes - So Many Stars Lyrics






The dark is filled with dreams
So many dreams which one is mine
One must be right for me
Which dream of all the dreams
When there's a dream for every star
And there are oh so many stars
So many stars
The wind is filled with songs
So many songs which one is mine
One must be right for me
Which song of all the songs
When there's a song for every star
And there are oh so many stars, so many stars
Along the countless days, the endless nights
That I have searched so many eyes
So many hearts, so many smiles
Which one to choose, which way to go, how can I tell
How will I know, out of, oh
So many stars, so many stars

Yes, the wind is filled with songs, so many songs
Which one is mine, one must be right for me
Which song of all the songs
When there's a song for every star
And there are, oh, so many stars, so many stars
Along the countless days, the endless nights
That I have searched so many eyes
So many hearts, so many smiles
Which one to choose, which way to go, how can I tell
How will I know, out of, oh, so many stars
So many stars
(So many stars)
Oh, so many stars
(So many stars)
Oh, there are so many stars
(So many stars)
Lots and lots of stars, oh so many
(So many)
Oh, so many
(Stars)
Many
So many, many
(So many)
Stars
(Stars)...

Sergio Mendes So Many Stars Comments
  1. M.... M....

    Lani and Mendes, exquisite.

  2. N.... ....

    nice ;)

  3. r.... ....

    Poor Lani Hall's voice left her early but she did marry Herb.

  4. r.... ....

    When Pop Music was it's best. If I could come back 500 yrs from today (2019) They will likely still be playing Brasil 66 music along with most of the no. one hits of the late 1950s thru the early 1980s. After that Pop music became and still is just noise. Exceptions: Enya and Adel.

  5. R.... M....

    I think Herb Alpert heard her sing once . And was convinced to marry her.

  6. S.... L....

    ELVIS RRRRRROMEOOO

  7. T.... M....

    Very pretty no wonder Herb Alpert was drawn to it ... and married the lead singer

  8. M.... S....

    One of the best songs ever written. Says things that are timeless.

  9. s.... ....

    💙🧡💜💛💚❤️🖤🌈🌈🌈🌈

  10. c.... ....

    So beautiful song...

  11. a.... b....

    Lani Hall Golden

  12. F.... S....

    2019 September thanks!

  13. B.... M....

    Often overlooked is the amazing lyric here. Alan and Marilyn were the best ever in my opinion.

  14. �.... ....

    Tears from my eyes

  15. E.... C....

    Hermosa melodía y excelentes imágenes del universo infinito, gran combinación y gracias mil por subirlo...

  16. R.... M....

    I can't tell you how many times I've played this album. This is priceless, beautiful, timeless music....

  17. E.... ....

    Back in LA driving down the Sunset Strip in my friends dark green MGB convertible out to Malibu on a hot summer night with AM radio blasting out this type of music. Stopping at drive in to get hamburger, fries , and milkshakes. Coming back around 1:00 am and sleeping in next day. I was nineteen and did not have a care in the world. I thought the world was a beautiful place and would only get better.

  18. s.... e....

    A classic indeed.
    But its those first "haunting" 19 seconds of strings that grabbed my attention when the song first came out in 68.
    So many great artists have covered this song.
    But none have captured that evocative introduction.

  19. O.... ....

    How can you not feel romantic?

  20. T.... C....

    Wonderful song! The astronomical images really fit the lyrics.

  21. P.... J....

    Add to the list of immensely talented singers that somehow stayed under the radar despite their incredible gifts. You should feel pity for those out there who don't know who Lani Hall is. It would be like never tasting really good wine or seeing a perfect sunset.Sad.

  22. F.... ....

    Maybe all stars of our galaxy are hold in this gorgeous introduction? :')

  23. G.... D....

    Te amo
    Carmen

  24. D.... J....

    Janice Hansen is singing. I really wish she had recorded many more songs. She was so beautiful both inside & out. Listen close it’s not Lani Hall I don’t think. Voice sounds just like Janice on Look of Love by Burt Bachrach

  25. R.... C....

    Beautiful song, beautiful voice, beautiful woman!

  26. �.... ....

    1970年ごろ友達のレコードでSergio Mendez &Brasill66をよく聞いてました。あれからもう50年が経ちました。

    ♪♫ Blindfolded - Bossa Nova by composer Fabio Valente♪♫

    Enjoy thanks!!!

  28. P.... R....

    I would do anything in this whole wide world to bring my mom back which her son my brother had shown her this song right before he passed away in 2008 and as someone leaves a our life someone has a playlist for them so every time I played this song which was three times she Princess year by year God told me

    LANI HALL.....the best of the best.....wife of HERB ALPERT

  30. C.... H....

    This song is a dream !!

  31. R.... V....

    LA MEJOR VERSIÓN DE ESTA BELLA CANCION, CON LA HERMOSA VOZ DE LANI HALL.

  32. L.... S....

    This song is so well written it matches her voice patterns superbly. That is why it is still so well appreciated. I don't know who did
    write and arrange it but they hit the target perfectly.

  33. h.... ....

    '66 so full of dreams and wonder! i was 16 and so in love with this music even my mom knew all the words. eventually i became a singer in a band and the rest is history!!😢

  34. M.... S....

    Comment from an eighty-five years old: wonderful and beautiful.

  35. J.... W....

    This is such an amazing video--it always makes me consider, that we here on Earth are only a tiny speck, in this huge universe.😔💒

  36. c.... f....

    ❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍

  37. s.... ....

    Yep, it's me again on the fantail of the Everett F.Larson DD830 somewhere in the Tonkin Gulf off the coast of Vietnam 1968 on that battery powered turntable i purchased in Hong Kong while on leave. Damn i wish you were there to see what i mean about a song like this with the violins and her voice out in the ocean up under a star filled sky. You just can't get this on a cruise because the folks on those never get to experience the ocean and that is so sad.

  38. T.... M....

    Words fail.

    XxX XxxX X +xxx

  40. L.... V....

    If you have:

    Husband and wife tandem Alan amd Marilyn Bergman with Jobim's protegé Sergio Mendes made this lyrics and composition.

    Along came Lani Hall to perform this song.

    And the rest is history.

    L.... V....

    Beautiful, stunningly beautiful.

  41. L.... L....

    One of my favorite songs, Lani Hall-alpert (Herb Alpert's wife ); one of the smartest moves Herb ever made!!! This womans voice is timeless and is one of the major reasons Brasil 66 was a soight after sound with the group. Sergio was not the only headliner. Lani was.

  42. M.... H....

    Check out the Singers Unlimited version. Even better, stunning arrangement.

    M.... H....

    Both versions have their own beauty.

  43. J.... W....

    What an excellent video! It's beautiful--and so is the song! I've always enjoyed Sergio Mendes and Brazil '66, and the voice of Lani Hall, but this is a treat.😊💒

  44. c.... ....

    Jane Monheit sings this the best ever.

  45. �.... ....

    I miss my mom.

  46. M.... K....

    I heard this song on the radio and noticed the intro was sampled by a rap group

  47. Y.... B....

    この曲を聴くと、セルメンが好きだった彼を思い出して、切なくなります。

  48. F.... S....

    "POR SIEMPRE Y PARA SIEMPRE... te dedico todas éstas hermosas melodías de SÉRGIO MENDES & BRASIL 66 para tí L.S.R.G. 1970, 2019.

  49. P.... J....

    Sergio Mendes revolucionou mais ainda a Bossa Nova dando o seu charmem, seu toque todo especial, ouvi esse disco até ele rachar em 1966.

  50. d.... w....

    This is the definitive version of this classic with Lani Hall's voice and Dave Grusin's arrangement.

  51. E.... I....

    Singing the same song wishing on that 🌟

  52. R.... S....

    Of all the talented people who have recorded this beautiful song, Lani with Sergio is still the best. And I am talking great vocalists like Streisand, Vaughan, Cole, & Monheit among others. But then you have the Bergmans. How can you miss.

  53. J.... M....

    Lani Hall's voice is so beautiful really. And she sang this song with so much feeling it makes one respond to it unwittingly. The music is excellent and the lyrics are so too. Great to hear anytime, anyplace.

  54. J.... B....

    Could it really be over 50 years since I first was captivated and truly dazzled by the magic of Sergio and Lani's stellar voice? Everything Grusin touched was as if by magic wand. Very much like David Foster and the albums and singles he's presided over. Brazil '66 took the pop world by storm - but what is truly stunning is the music is timeless. It sounds like it could have been recorded last week? Understanding the players and the contributions they have made to the music world is remarkable - by way of astounding! Elaine Elias with the album "Made in Brazil" continues the flow of genius in the same style as this piece. Check out the cut "Rio?" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMa-HXt1Nnc WOW!

  55. B.... R....

    Genesis 15:5 And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be.

  56. B.... R....

    Genesis 1:16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.

  57. E.... T....

    Sometimes, people compare Barbra Streisand and Lani Hall .. they are both marvellous, but we can't really compare them, they don't use fully the same vocal technique . Lani Hall is almost always in the hight register (head voice - mixed voice) even her low notes are light (and bright of course) - Barbra Streisand uses : the chest voice and brings it to the D5 or more (belting technique - a real "athletic" performance), she uses of course the mixed and head voice - 
    The both are angels and the most important is the well done they do for us.

  58. W.... B....

    ...I had the pleasure this past year to see both Lani Hall and Herb Alpert live in Seattle at the Triple Door AND Sergio Mendes and his lovely wife and his great band at Dimitriou's Jazz Alley....both are now 70+, Herb is in his early 80's and both shows were fantastic....what wonderful musical souls and how inspiring their lives together with their wives of 40+ years....when I find myself sad and discouraged recalling these lovely people brightens my mood....

  59. F.... F....

    I have already said something about this song and its performer, I find difficult to find words in a dictionary to really explain how perfect and beautiful this particular item is 💚👍

  60. j.... ....

    I never get tired of this song

  61. A.... B....

    Easily one of most beautiful songs ever !

  62. L.... T....

    I'm a singer and I've never sung this. It is not a singer's song. Very difficult with the leaps and no steady melodic flow. I'd try it in the exactly correct key for me. I find this hard to listen to. There must be a smoother way to phrase this.

    L.... T....

    This beautiful song is recognised as a classic and had been covered by many singers such as Heren Merrill, Tony Bennett, Sarah Vaughan, Jane Monheit, Mark Murphy, Barbra Streisand, Natalie Cole, and Stacey Kent. In this case, however, the original is the best in my opinion. Speaking as a fellow singer, if you listen and enjoy the beauty of the melody a little more you should find it a joy to sing.

  63. F.... F....

    I keep saying to myself and to some friends, I was lucky to have been born at time , right time to hear this beautiful and perfect song , in a perfect voice , no one can beat this particular delivery, simple wonderful.

  64. E.... M....

    Along with Like a Lover, my all time favorite Sergio-Brasil 66 song. Lani Hall's voice is mesmerizing. This music is timeless.

  65. i.... ....

  66. L.... C....

    E mande numa garrafa mensagens de paz com essa música linda que será muito bem-vinda no futuro pobre que estamos cultivando!

  67. L.... C....

    Agradeço pelo som tão perfeito e que me faz tão feliz...

  68. E.... I....

    Such a lovely song.
    6.26.18 @10:46 AM EST. Be in the moment. Heal. Love again. With me? ❤

  69. J.... M....

    This is a young person's song which alas I am no longer but it makes me remember so many things of those days when I used to hear it and liked it a lot as I was wondering what to do with my life. I wondered what kind of work would I find to do where I would live and how and who would be my mate. Songs fifty years ago were significant and so full of meaning something that cannot be said for most of the songs being performed today.

  70. J.... M....

    Lani Hall's beautiful voice makes me recall those times in my youth when I was looking for a mate to share my life with her. All girls are pretty in one way or another but not all are appropriate to be our partners for life. But I kept on looking till I found her my beautiful lovely Rina.

    J.... M....

    You are a very lucky man, good on you and your beautiful Rina.

  71. s.... a....

    Lani Hall was the Goddess of music. she had a perfect voice . so gifted .

    So many stars indeed. Ric, a close friend, helped "Lani" secure one of her 1st gigs on Rush St. She broke his heart when she left him & Chicago to advance her career . Years later I was facing a crisis of coming to terms with Life. Lani was singing inside of a Santa, Fe club while I was riveted outside on the balcony enraptured by both her ethereal rendition of this song and the Autumn "Apache Moon's" radiance over the Sangre de Cristo pine studded scenery. Its beauty transcended my melancholy into a contented state accepting the random paths, the possibilities of fulfillment awaiting me and the Lover I must yield to our separate destinies. Life has been good for both of us. I lost touch with Ric yet I trust that his star, as did Lani's shone bright...

  75. F.... F....

    I listen this music from different interpreters virtually every night . The only thing I can say is when a person or persons can make this material, they must be inspired out of this world. One feels like boarding a 🚀 and join the ✨

  76. J.... M....

    One of those sweet songs this great group sang and that I used to hear in the late sixties and early seventies. A very good song it describes how we feel when we quest around for someone to love, there are so many girls everywhere, Who shall be the right one for me? -Fortunately I found her with time and now I have been married 34 years with her and happy I did marry her.

  77. M.... A....

    The best version!!!

    So Many Stars
    Jane Monheit
    The dawn is filled with dreams
    So many dreams which one is mine
    One must be right for me
    Which dream of all the dreams
    When there's a dream for every star
    And there are oh so many stars
    So many stars
    The wind is filled with songs
    So many songs which one is mine
    One must be right for me
    Which song of all the songs
    When there's a song for every star
    And there are oh so many stars, so many stars
    Along the countless days, the endless nights
    That I have searched so many eyes
    So many hearts, so many smiles
    Which one to choose, which way to go, how can I tell
    How will I know, out of, oh
    So many stars, so many stars
    Yes, the wind is filled with songs, so many songs
    Which one is mine, one must be right for me
    Which song of all the songs
    When there's a song for every star
    And there are, oh, so many stars, so many stars
    Yes, the wind is filled with songs, so many songs
    Which one is mine, one must be right for me
    Which song of all the songs
    When there's a song for every star
    And there are, oh, so many stars, so many stars
    Along the countless days, the endless nights
    That I have searched so many eyes
    So many hearts, so many smiles
    Which one to choose, which way to go, how can I tell
    How will I know, out of, oh, so many stars
    So many stars...so many stars... oh, so many stars

  82. J.... G....

    I love this love song by Lani Hall,she knows how to put her charm & voice into 1,not to mention the thoughts of yesteryear,as time passes, and loves & people that come in and out of life thru those years.

  87. c.... ....

    One of the first albums I ever bought as a teenager. This is just one of Sergio's many great songs. It's beautiful, enchanting and haunting because the song puts you in a place that slips away when the song ends -- while you really want to stay in that place longer, maybe forever if you could.

  88. b.... ....

    Has anyone ever possessed a face as beautiful as Lani's?

  89. Z.... ....

    Ne vois tu pas tous les messages que j'ignore ?

  90. T.... N....

    ....this takes me back, on so many levels..... It's very beautiful. I can still sing it perfectly too. I love it!

  91. j.... ....

    If everyone loved music like this the world would be a much better place.Why are some youth in mosh pits and other reciting raps songs about drugs and killing ? What a strange world we live in.

    j.... ....

    +jsamc -- That crazy world that you describe is a sad and debased world, most definitely. Plato spoke about the need for beauty as a transcendent experience. THIS music (and Lani's voice) fits that description perfectly.

  92. A.... E....

    This is so beautiful. I have to say, though, the obligatory harpsichord is not a plus. The late 60's had arrangements with harpsichords and sitars that I think now are regretted. IMO.

    A.... E....

    +Art -- I still find it charming, whether needed or not. Now, a sitar would NOT be a good fit, I must admit.
