On a very unimportant subject, but I am psyched about it, I was able to find Audrey Hepburn's version of "Moon River" on iTunes! I just looooove the way she sings that song...
I have loved "Moon River" for many years... It's a song I used to play on the piano a lot (it's still strange I could never memorize that song).
It was only a few years ago when I got to see "Breakfast at Tiffany's" -- thanks to Marie for the wonderful gift!
It is a very haunting song for me, and I will always remember how struck I was to see that scene for the first time when Audrey sang it in the movie... So simple, yet, moving...
It always makes me pause when I hear it -- be it the Andy Williams' version or some kind of instrumental version (ooh, Marie, wouldn't it be awesome to hear the pan flute version? LOL! I know how much you LOVE the pan flute! ;))...
Guess the song brings about some kind of longing... Of possibilities... Not sure if I'm wording it right, but it makes me feel inspirational and melancholy at the same time.
