Neil Armstrong is My Uncle Paperback Book Giveaway Contest

To celebrate the paperback release of Neil Armstrong is My Uncle today, I'm having a contest to give away a signed copy. To enter, all you have to do is leave a comment below telling me the title of your favorite "moon" song (the word "moon" should be in the title of the song).
My favorite moon song is Moon River. It makes me think of Audrey Hepburn in "Breakfast at Tiffany's" but even before I saw that movie, I fell in love with those Johnny Mercer lyrics . .They had me at "huckleberry friend".
The winner will be randomly selected sometime at the end of next week.

Yup-Moon River, moon landing... I want to read your book!

It's very exciting! I am partial to the original cover. Congrats!

Ohhh, I do like Moon River. But when you asked about a song with a moon in it, my mind instantly went to "Blue Moon." I have a friend who insists that it's scientifically proven that once Blue Moon enters your head, no other songs can remain. So... I guess I like Blue Moon? ;)

Anyway, great news that it's coming out in paperback!

Best Wishes on your paperback release! My favorite moon song is Sinatra's "Fly Me to the Moon".

Glynis said...

How about Sinatra's Fly Me to The Moon?

Kim Wray said...

It's a Marvelous Night for a Moondance....(don't you think?).

Congratulations on the paperback release! My favorite "moon" song is Frank Sinatra's Fly Me to the Moon. It brings back great memories of my Mom and dancing in the kitchen.

Nancy said...

I was going to say "Blue Moon" by Rodgers and Hart since it was the first to pop into my head, but a very close second is "Old Devil Moon" from Finian's Rainbow, a sentimental favorite of mine. Congratulations, Nance!

Congrats on your paperback! (Don't enter me in the contest. I have the original hardback edition!)

Anonymous said...

Congrats, Nan!!! Did anyone say "By the Light of the Silvery Moon"?

I have to go with R.E.M.'s "Man on the Moon" ....

Carol Zsiga said...

Just Once in a Very Blue Moon - Nanci Griffith.
Or maybe That Old Devil Moon.... :)

Josiah said...

My favorite would probably be "On Moonlight Bay". I commented this already on your Goodreads post about the contest, but I wanted to make sure that my entry counted. I really liked Neil Armstrong Is My Uncle & Other Lies Muscle Man McGinty told me! :-)

Kate said...

I love all the moon songs so far, but my choice is "Bad Moon Rising."

Pete said...

I'll be seeing you in all the old familiar places. And also the heart of the night

Blue Moon of Kentucky.

Cheryl said...

My favorite MOON song is "FLY ME TO THE MOON" by Frank Sinatra; another favorite would be "Moondance" by Van Morrison; then there's Dean Martin's "That's Amore"...I'll stop, but there's so many more! Love your stuff, Nancy!
