There is a lovely scene from an old "Sex and The CIty" episode where Mr. Big describes to Carrie how his parents played "Moon River" each time they prepared to go out on a date and as they did so, he watched them get ready. His memory seemed to transport him back to his childhood. I connected with that scene immediately.

[@janinhahope]

I just watched this scene and came searching for the song... I had already heard it, but by Frank Ocean. I love this song ❤

[@debbieparmermitchell2310]

In an ad for downloading a Bible this song was playing in the background so I looked it up to listen to it . great music from yester-year

[@ianedwards4400]

Moon River is another perennial fave the the world over. Back in 1961 it was on the top 10 of the Hit Parade and sung by Danny Williams. Later versions by Connie Francis, Andy Williams and Matt Munro were all greatly appreciated. This hit from Breakfast at Tiffanys will never die; even Audrey Hepburn's cute version in the film was very sweet.

[@gapper3]

This quiet, contemplative piece was Top 10 in 1961. Tells you everything that you need to know about the coarsening of culture in North America in the intervening 60 or so years.

[@marilenanovoaassumpcao670]

Henry Mancini, a legend. Back when music was music. Its in an episode of All In The Family. Edith, talks about it being Mancini birthday. How Archie took her to see Breakfast At Tiffany's. TV that the Snowflakes would raise hell about all the great shows that Norman Lear has to his credit. Sad we have come to this. I grew up in the 70s and a great time to grow up. My first car was a 76 Pontiac Grand Le Man's. Thanks dad for believing in me. Paid the car note from my grocery store job after school. A beautiful car. Factory 8 track. Thanks for sharing this.

[@dalemorris7014]

I was just thinking of that episode!! I too grew up in the 70's and love All in the Family and of course Henry Mancini. My mother introduced me to some wonderful music. I always feel her with me when I hear it. I loved Andy Williams from kindergarten, and when he sang this song I melted. I'm 55 now, and it still happens.

[@williamflack5767]

@dalemorris7014 I am 64 now. Love Andy Williams too. My dad loved music and could sing. My 28 year old son loved the music from that time. Andy Williams, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Elvis. He went ahead of me and his brother to be with Jesus. A brain bleed. His mom my wife 7 years ago breast cancer. She was nurse. God bless us all. Thanks for sharing.

[@dalemorris7014]

I am so sorry for your losses. Bless all of you. My dad loved music too, but could not sing... ha ha ha--he was tone deaf, but he'd joke about it. My mother always had the record player going and all the great entertainers from that era. Some of the ones you'd mentioned and Jerry Vale. entertainers like this don't exist anymore.@@williamflack5767

[@KingOFuh]

I love Jerry Butler's virgin of this song, the first virgin after Audrey Hepburn's performance in BAT. Many felt at the time that the BATCAT, played by Orangey, deserved a special Oscar for enduring the ending scene in the pouring rain. Orangey DID win the 1962 Patsy for the role, his second. He had also won ten years earlier for his first role as Rhubarb. The only negative thing about the song is that the melody of Moon River reflects the extreme bigotry of Mancini, in that it was played entirely on the white keys of the piano.

[@magorzataacek4615]

Piękny utwór

[@trout717oboeplayer9]

I first heard Moon River in 2022 because it was part of the Blue Devil’s show that year and I still view that as one of the best versions of this piece and one of the best ballads in DCI history
