  Essential: "Marquee Moon" by Television--featuring a building-up crescendoing of fantastic and tensely scary guitar interplay between Tom Verlaine and Richard Lloyd ("I remember how the darkness doubled, I recall lightning struck itself/ I was listenin, listenin' to the rain, I was hearin', hearin', something else/ . . . All this time with the Marquee Moon, but just waitin'"
  
  Also: not strictly about the moon, bt Tom Waits has a great line in "Bad Liver and A Broken Heart": "No, the moon ain't romantic, it's intimidating as hell."

  @karibird5 Yessss! Jimmy Buffett!
  
  Also someone mentioned REM "Man on the Moon" and The Doors "Moonlight Drive" which are also good ones.
  
  I'm getting married in October and sort of having a moon theme. Van Morrison's "Moondance" will be the "theme" song. I got lots of other great moon songs from this thread! Thanks everyone!
