Do Spanish songs count?

Hijo de la Luna (Son of the Moon) by José Maria Cano although I personally am more familiar with the cover version by Loona.

And how could we forget the song that inspired one of the first "Moonlight" writing challenges?

"Moonlight Becomes You" -- performed by Bing Crosby in "The Road to Morroco": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUmkz95E7mw


Josef prefers the Ella Fitzgerald version. Long story.

I'd love to read that story someday, Lilly. And oh, what a treat the Billie Holliday video is! Thank you!

Fairytoes, of course other languages count! And I hope you don't mind, I took the liberty of editing in links to a few different versions of that lovely song.

Bad Moon Rising - Creedance Clearwater Revival

Just watched Francis' link to the classical version of Moonlight Sonata.

Francis, that was just exquisite. Classical music is my absolute favorite.

Thanks, Francis!

Just used Francis' link to listen to Clare de Lune.

Lovely!

And for something entirely different, there was GA's Creedance.

Wonderful!

Thanks

I LOVE the idea behind this!! So I've gone through it and didn't see ' Moon River' By Andy Williams... I'll post this version, and of course the stunning woman who also made it famous. So beautiful
