1. Fotografia

   Fotografia (also known as "Photograph") is a bossa nova song written and composed in 1959 by Antônio Carlos Jobim. English lyrics were published in 1965 by Ray Gilbert."Fotografia" was one of Jobim's first compositions for which he wrote the words as well as the music. According to author Ruy Castro, this came about partly because Jobim's songwriting partner, Vinicius de Moraes, had left Rio de Janeiro to take up a diplomatic post in Montevideo, Uruguay, during much of 1958 and 1959. The change allowed Jobim to work with other lyricists, such as close friend Newton Mendonça, Dolores Duran and Aloísio de Oliveira, and to try his hand at penning his own lyrics. Jazz critic Gary Giddins, writing in The New Yorker, referred to "Fotografia" as an "ingenious" composition full of "flirtatious romance," while Mark Holston at Jazziz Magazine said the song was "mesmerizing." Thom Jurek at AllMusic called it "a tome of memory and longing."Brazilian vocalist Flora Purim, who recorded "Fotografia" on her 2001 album Perpetual Emotion, discussed the background of the song in an interview on National Public Radio, saying, "in Brazil it's very common, all those illegal love affairs, people that are married but fall in love with other people that are married. So they would meet in the afternoon and be together until sunset, and then they'd have to go home to their families. And this song talks about a romance between two people and suddenly that kiss, you know, that goodbye kiss, 'I have to go now.' It's a song about forbidden love. . . . about love affairs in the late afternoon.""Fotografia" has been used as the title of other Jobim-related albums, including Wanda Sá's 2014 Jobim tribute album, and a 2005 compilation from Planet Rhythm (Universal) entitled Fotografia: Os Años Dourados de Tom Jobim that includes rarities, outtakes, and previously unreleased tracks.
