Frank Ocean - Moon River
03:09
The Internet is collectively swooning.
Whether you were feeling loved up this Valentines or facing the day solo, Frank Ocean's hypnotic cover of 'Moon River' is surely a gift we are all grateful for.
The elusive R&B singer dropped the surprise track - a heavenly take on the classic track made famous by 'Breakfast At Tiffanys' - yesterday, and the world was not ready.
In typical Ocean style, the song ebbs and flows like a lullaby as the 'Chanel' hitmaker croons over a hauntingly romantic instrumental.
"When i heard frank ocean’s cover of moon river my soul left my body" wrote one enamoured fan on Twitter, mimicking the general consensus online.
frank ocean changed the lyrics of moon river from “oh dream maker, you heart breaker” to “my dream maker, my heart breaker”, i’m not crying, you are
