Moon River was originally written by Johnny Mercer and Henry Mancini to be sung by Audrey Hepburn. The song was first released as sung by her in the 1961 film Breakfast at Tiffany's and won an Oscar for best song.
It would later go on to be a hit for many artists who covered it including Jerry Butler, Danny Williams, and Andy Williams.
