written at the corner of rua vinícius the moraes (at the time rua montenegro) and rua prudente de morais, this song has become so symbolic to brazilian culture that even rio's international airport was named after one of his creators, antônio carlos jobim, also known as tom jobim.

rua montenegro was renamed into rua vinícius de moraes, in vinícius' tribute.  even if the song title seems unknown, many will be familiar with the catchy melody of the tune, for it is the most famous bossa nova song ever written.
