 The Oscar winner for 1962, the title song from The Days of Wine and Roses by Henry Mancini and Johnny Mercer, the first and only back-to-back winners of the Academy Award for Best Original Song. And for Mercer, it was his fourth and final win, beating out the love song from Mutiny on the Bounty, the song from Two for the Seesaw, Tender is the Night, and Walk on the Wild Side. Now, the duo had a chance to win three in a row in 1963 for Charade, but lost out to Call Me Irresponsible.
