My name is Juaquin Mercer Moraga I am 17 years old, and I have followed your uploads for years. I am the aspiring oboist, however, I started out on flute and jumped around all the woodwinds.I don't know if you've seen the corolation yet but the reason my middle name is Mercer is my grandfather is Johnny Mercer the man who wrote the lyrics to this song you have here and that Oscar you mentioned above is sitting in my grandmothers room right now. I can take a picture of it 4 u
What a wonderful email. That is just TOO cool! I bet you are very proud of your Oscar winning Grandfather. I am not sure but I think the Oscar was awarded in 1961 for "Breakfast at Tiffany's" and I was born in 1961...so, while your Grandfather was winning awards, I was laying in a crib wondering what to make of the world :D I would love a picture of his Oscar as I really enjoy things like that.
@Jackolackolack Johnny Mercer was a very gifted person. Loved his music since I was a kid and first heard his songs over the radio. I lived in an apartment house in Brooklyn, NY and I remember in the summer time when windows were opened (no one could afford air-conditioners) and you would here Mercer's music floating out of the windows of the neighborhood. It was a great time in my life. I'm going to be 62 years old this year but Mercer's music always puts a smile on my face.
