"Sentado à Beira do Caminho" is a Brazilian song composed by Roberto Carlos and Erasmo Carlos and released as a single in May 1969 by Erasmo Carlos.
Background
The song was inspired by a 1968 hit song, Bobby Russell's "Honey (I miss you)", and it describes the despair and hopelessness of a lover waiting for his beloved.[1]
In 1970 the song was adapted into Italian language by Bruno Lauzi and recorded by Ornella Vanoni with title "L'appuntamento". This version, chosen as opening song of the radio show Gran Varietà, became an immediate hit, ranking #2 on the Italian hit parade. The song was also covered by several artists, including Mina, Andrea Bocelli, Johnny Dorelli, Fernanda Porto.[1]
The Vanoni's version was included in the musical score of the film Ocean's Twelve.[2]
In 1988, American singer Eydie Gormé recorded a Spanish-language version of the song under the title "Sentado a la Vera del Camino" with Carlos for her album De Corazón a Corazón.[3] The song peaked at number two on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs.[4] Their version led to the duo receiving a nomination for Pop Group or Duo of the Year at the inaugural Lo Nuestro Awards in 1989.[5]
