Moon songs

[Filbert]

I'd like to sing songs about the moon with my class (or that use moon in the song).
Can anyone help me think of any that are suitable for the very young?
Thanks in advance

'Everyone's Gone To The Moon by Jonathan Ki...

..hang on, you said for kids right?

Okay, scratch that one.

There's a better one...the one that goes 'it's a wonderful night for a moon dance'.

[welshwil]

bad moon rising - creedence clearwater revival,
probably more suited to kids is that one when the cow jumped over it and the dish ran away with the spoon

[normyc]

would that be "hey diddle diddle"

[Rock'n'Roll]

There must be quite a lot. On PC at moment I have: Blue Moon-Marcels,which should be easy to get hold of.
Dark Moon- Bonnie Guitar, another old standard with lots of artists. Carolina Moon-Connie Francis. Under The Moon Of Love-Curtis Lee. Moonlight Serenade_cocktails. Thre's a moon out tonight-Capris

[jacobsmummy]

don't think its suitable for kids, it talks about making love!

[spat]

Echo and the Bunnymen-Killing Moon

[B00]

[makemesmile]

'we've been to button moon,

Someone Like The Moon - Pulp

One Small Step - Stereolab

(This song has a fascinating story attached to it...see below)

Song explanation courtesy of Song Facts:

"This song is a tribute to Lucia Pamela, a highly eccentric American musician. She released one album, Into Outer Space with Lucia Pamela, in 1969 (re-released in 1992) which was mostly about an imaginary trip to the moon. (She insisted the album was actually recorded on the moon). She also produced a cartoon coloring book called Into Outer Space with Lucia Pamela in the Year 2000"
