"Lisbon Antigua" is a Portuguese popular song that became a hit in the United States when recorded by the Nelson Riddle orchestra in 1956. The song was originally written in 1947, with music by Raul Portela and Portuguese lyrics by José Galhardo and Amadeu do Vale. It was brought to Riddle's attention by Nat King Cole's manager who had heard a version played by an orchestra in Mexico. Riddle recorded his own arrangement with himself on the piano accompanied by a string section, brass, and a wordless male chorus. "Lisbon Antiqua" topped the Billboard magazine chart on February 25, 1956 and remained there for four weeks. The song became a gold record. Riddle then used the song for the theme music when he wrote the score for the 1956 film Lisbon. Billboard ranked it as the No. 3 song for 1956.
