Sunday Mass Brazilian Style !

Walking past the Rio de Janeiro bar frequented by a musician (Antonio Carlos Jobim) and lyricist (Vinicius de Moraes) in 1962, day after day, usually while picking up a pack of smokes for her mother or making her way to an obscure stretch of sand the world would soon come to know as Ipanema Beach.

They'd noticed the girl and had been moved to write a song, but in essence she was just an impressive pedestrian.

Yes, but a pedestrian with a walk like a samba that swings so cool and sways so gentle, and unpedestrian poetry like that doesn't just drop from the sky.
She was their Muse. But is artistic immortality enough of a reward for a Muse? I'd say she deserved more.
