Today Was All Peter, Paul & Mary

...and written by John Denver. How apropos.

First the answers to the riddle:

Barry Manilow

"Copacabana"

Astrud Gilberto

"The Girl from Ipanema"

a bit of Duran Duran

"Rio"

Geoff & Maria Muldaur

"Aquarela do Brasil"

Peter, Paul, & Mary

"Leaving on a Jet Plane"

(Ok, Barry was singing about the nightclub in New York, Duran Duran about a woman, and I really mean the English version, "Brazil.")

All of that was stuck in my head because, cfox74 and Kate teaching in Rio de Janeiro, while Bryan (Kate's husband) and I are just along for the ride. I've never been to South America, and I'm rather giddy.

See you in a week!
