Debutante
"She sang on two tracks on the influential 1963 album Getz/Gilberto... despite having never sung professionally before this recording. The 1964 single version of "The Girl from Ipanema"... taken from the 1963 album... sold over one million copies... ." -- Wikipedia

Whose very first song sold a million,
Was prone to the view

Was better than any cotillion.
