To the best of my knowledge, Bonfá has never sung anything. This is one of the most covered songs in history. Here on LT
we have both Astrud and Joao Gilberto singing it ( the original Portuguese version) among others. We also have a bunch of covers of at least two English language adaptations - "A day in the life of a fool", "I'll sing to the sun in the sky"
We also have a French adaptation. Everybody knows that Bonfá created this one of a kind melody, but that page under his name has to go.

The issue is that these lyrics are widely attributed to Bonfá as well. This is common, we have the same issue with Pixinguinha's page. Considering this song comes from a movie soundtrack I believe we can add a page for the OST and move it there, mentioning that Agostinho dos Santos performs it. But we would need a recording of his voice, as Bonfá doesn't sing.

Juan, the fact that some idiots who don't know what they are talking about attribute the lyrics to Bonfá, should not stop us from doing the right thing.
