 The very first Academy Award-winning song in 1934 from the gay divorcee, The Continental. That was Ginger Rogers with a little help from Fred Astaire. Music by Con Conrad and lyrics by Herb Magison. It beat out the karaoke and Love in Bloom. Obviously, that's the oldest winner on our list. The most recent that we'll feature today came from 1968's The Thomas Crown Affair. Noel Harrison sings When Mills of Your Mind.
