This song is a classic ballad from the early 80's. The vocalists are Joe Pizzulo and Leza Miller. It never had a music video. The original video of this rare "live" performance on Solid Gold in 1984 was sent to me by Anthony Ochoa. Thanks to him!
Sergio Mendes is one of the genre's best-know contributors. In the 1960s and 1970s, the Brazilian musician sold huge numbers of records.Mendes joins Sir David to discuss Bossa nova and Brazil's two greatest passions -- music and football.

Done in 19...uhh...66. I found TV footage of this song, stripped out the sound and put the stereo version in. I mixed the girls vocals to be a bit louder where they are featured & their solos as they sound really cool here. *** www.ModCollectibles.com ***
Alibis Music: Sergio Mendes Lyrics: Sergio Mendes Singer: Joe Pizzulo It's nothin' I can put my finger on But it's there, I swear. It's not somethin' I'm imaginin'. Each time you call, I know I'll get your "working late" routine again. Is there someone I should know about? Tell me why do I have this doubt? I'm sure your alibis are watertight And you're where you have to be tonight. Whoa, oh, but I know you're slippin' away from me. I'm know your alibis are watertight And you're where you say you are tonight But honey, I can tell. I know the pattern much too well. I don't fool so easily. Slippin' away from me. Your telephone service says you're out again. Somewhere, out there, you've got another rendezvous. I know the way you work. You'll be someplace where no one can check up on you. You think you're in the clear but don't forget That's exactly the way we met. I'm sure your alibis are watertight And you're where you have to be tonight. Whoa, oh, but I know you're slippin' away from me. I know your alibis are watertight And you're where you say you are tonight But honey, I can tell. I know the pattern much too well. I don't fool so easily. Slippin' away from me. Is there someone I should know about? Tell me why do I have this doubt. I'm sure your alibis are watertight And you're where you have to be tonight. Whoa, oh, but I know you're slippin' away from me. I know your alibis are watertight And you're where you say you are tonight But honey, I can tell. I know the pattern ...
