"Desafinado" is a bossa nova song composed by Antonio Carlos Jobim with lyrics by Newton Mendonça. The English lyrics were written by Jon Hendricks and Jesse Cavanagh. The first release was in 1959. Recordings with English lyrics are sometimes titled with a translation of the Portuguese word Desafinado as "Off Key".

One great recording of this can be found on the album Getz Gilberto featuring Stan Getz, Antonio Carlos Jobim, and João Gilberto.
