This is the second volume of Bossa Nova singer Lisa Ono's standard collection, featuring covers of her favorite popular songs from around the world, performed in a bossa style. Her refreshing and rhythmic vocals comfortably revive past danceable hit tunes. Similar to her previous work "My Favorite Songs", this album was recorded in Los Angeles and Tokyo, with arrangements by singer-songwriter and pianist Bill Cantos, who is scheduled to perform with her in May at Blue Note Tokyo.
