Henry Mancini

Yes, I'm old-fashioned.  Yes, I'm romantic.  After all, I am a "Moonchild".  This is my kind of music, lush, romantic, dreamy.

Henry Mancini did that kind of music better than anyone.  He wrote all the music for the movie "Breakfast at Tiffany's".  The most famous song on that soundtrack is "Moon River".  But this one has always been my favorite. This one is the theme song, entitled "Breakfast at Tiffany's".



Oh, in case you've never seen the movie, here is the original trailer.  Note the orange coat she's wearing in one scene.  I've always wanted one just like it!  It's Givenchy.  Of course, I would never look as good as she does...

i love the orange coat as well. i think it would still look good today. a lot of those 60s styles are kind of permanently cute.

Zoe has good taste! I agree about the 60s styles. I wish I had kept all of mine and could still fit into them!
