The moon is fairly well-known. You’ve probably seen it most nights—it’s hard to miss.

Why is the moon so interesting? Is it because it’s so big? Maybe people like it because it’s really bright. Or maybe it’s just because it is a GIANT stone floating in the sky.

Anyway, in my opinion, the moon is nice. And I’m not alone … it’s been featured in a lot of great songs. Some of the best include:

• “Mi Amore” (Dean Martin)
• “Moon River” (Henry Mancini)
• “Tonight” (The Smashing Pumpkins)
• “Dark Side of the Moon” (Pink Floyd)
• “Thriller” (Michael Jackson—who even invented the “moonwalk”… )

And the list goes on. But what can I say? People really like the moon. My only question is, “What kind of song would you write about the moon? If you stop and think about it, what would your song sound like?”
