  • i listen to this often, it really is one of the best versions....but also check out the Cowboy Junkies' Blue Moon Revisited...

  • Best rendition of this song ever. EVER!

  • This song is in the soundtrack of "Apollo 13" with Raul singing it. Had to buy ! Love it ! Irma

  • Love this version

  • me viste cuando estaba solo...

    

  • AWESOME:)

  • nice

  • Great tribute to Elvis ;-)

  • Great slow song to dance to. Oh yeah, I'm dancin' now. Ooh, Ooh, Ooh! Feets don't fail me now! ;-)

  • @Maureen712 If they do my darling sweet heart, I'll be there to hold you tight and wisp you to the stars above and dance the magical night away:)

  • @serenitysprnigs Thank you, sweet heart..I knew I could depend on you! :D

    Hugs,

    <3 Maureen

  • @Maureen712 yes, sweet heart, for that and more!! xoxo:)

  • It sounds more like what it should instead of fast

  • Just makes you melt...sigh....

  • closer version to Elvis' than any I've heard Great Job thanks to frans102

  • @elamite66 i love Raul Malo been fan since The Mavericks still am love his cd's now saw him this year (April) and he is great gets better everytime a new cd is out.... This i agree is so much like Elvis style but i have Elvis's song too and he just beats Raul by a touch .... julie(Australia)

  • i take it like icecream...

  • I could eat this with a spoon.

  • What a voice. Just superb

  • oh what a thrill to listen to Raul sing this :)

  • The man with the Velvet Voice

  • wspaniałe wykonanie

  • This is awsome...but who sings the original version ?????

  • @NBBLuvaYea Its an old song from the 1930s- but Raul is covering Elvis Presley's 1954 version. Chris Isaak also covered Elvis' version quite well.

  • i have Elvis singing this from my complication of the 50's and he sings it superbly never thought i would hear it sang again like his but i have in Raul Malo what a singer .... Saw him last night at The Basement with my husband and what a show it was he sang songs from The Mavericks , and his solo cd's and his new one out Sinners and Saints fantastic he was , the group were the same just incredible.... I bought the new cd Sinners and Saints and it is A+ material...

  • This is the best version as far as I'm concerned and I'm not even a country guy!

    

  • Completely Awesome, what a voice.

  • I can't believe the people who hear such an amazing voice and have to talk about his weight. He is what he is and if he were different he wouldn't sound like he does. I would give my all just to sound half as good as he does.

  • He's good

  • I didn't follow his eating habits at school but you can always ask him yourself i am sure he would answer you

  • absolutley awsome very talented artist I saw him in Glasgow many may years ago with my daughter and have been a fan ever since

  • Great rendition of this song

  • SAW THEM TWICE...A++++++ RAUL's VOICE IS BEYOND FABULOUS!!

  • This is a special song for Maureen. Dancing under the blue moon is such a delight for both of us; we're so very young at heart.

  • ass hole this dude has a elvis/orbison voice remember churhiils pub

  • If U read this, then start to believe in destiny! :)

  • I love the way he sings it. SO BEAUTIFUL!! I've been looking for this version for soo long........ The inflection when he goes high. It is so beautiful...

  • Buena versión felicidades

  • Max A-Hole, have you ever actually stood on a stage? Or sang a dozen songs in a poorly air-condictioned auditorium? The only spotlight you've ever had on you came from a police hilicopter and you were probably sweating in the line-up! Raul Malo has one of the best voices in pop/country and anyone who knew anything about music would recognize that. Go back to studying to be a jailhouse lawyer!

  • Raul Malo !!!

  • Raul Malo ....

  • Let's face it, folks, maxlogica, to put it plain and simple, is Un Grande A-Hole.

  • Comment removed

  • @maxlogica That comment says a lot about the kind of person you are, to stereotype two continents off of your negative perception of one person.

  • @jcweights There is a reason American tops the world obesity charts....not to mention bombing third world countries and looting their wealth and natural resources.

  • I request this song to my lady friends who long for their hubbies who are out there making a living on the road and hoping you all be together again soon. have a great weekend. : )

  • A country singer who can really sing from the heart without sounding like a pansy (you know, like Alan Jackson).

  • love it

  • best version in the world. awsome voice.

  • LOVE IT!!!! I have never heard of you until I found your video, but I love your voice. Great job!

  • I keep playing this track, it is unbelievable what a voice this man has.

    To bad they broke up.

  • This was used on the sound track for Apollo 13 movie.

  • Raul is my favorite singer too. Listen to him all of the time. Dont care too much for todays country. Whatever HE sings I love.

  • The slower is played, better it sounds this song.......

  • I agree with you. I never really liked the faster version.

  • Where can I buy Blue Moon and a few others by Mavericks...such as Welcome to my world, Angel Flying too close to the ground? I LOVE THESE GUYS!! Raul Malo is AMAZING! Do they have their own website? Any info you can give me about getting these tunes would be much appreciated. DJ

  • There is not a better version of this song,period!

  • Thanks for the info. I knew it was spanish - just wasn't sure what it said.

  • Beautiful version. Can someone tell me what the spoken part is saying?

  • He was speaking in Spanish.

  • @clongprong

    la luna esta en el cielo

    con todas las estrellas

    brillando muy illuminante

    The moon is in the heavens

    with all of the stars

    shining so brightly

  • A lovely version. Thanks for uploading.

  • Kind of weird, but when I listen to this, I hear "We Belong Together" instead of Blue Moon, just his delivery I guess/

  • haha me too

  • I very much liked its execution of the Blue Moon - I wish to play it as.

  • He's my favorite too. I think he is the sexiest man around . Love him Love him

    Love him.

  • awsome singer-I can only sing bass and to hit notes like that for a suprono is amazing

  • What a voice - in the UK we don't get many americana or country music stars, but Raul is the best.

  • Comment removed

  • everything Raul does is the best

  • What's your negative comment this week maxlogica?

  • Raul, you are my favorite singer and this song is very beautiful with your wonderful voice. Thank you Raul.

  • @delima49 He has the most amazing voice, ever...I've never got to see him live...Hope to some day!

  • omg r u kidding?! it's the best part, it's wonderful!

  • maxlogica

    he may be too fat to sing....

    but your too stupid to comment

  • @weetabixHEED2009

    Negative people have negative comments.

  • @maxlogica His size has nothing to do with his vocal performance, which is why he is getting paid and you are making rude comments from behind your computer. You reclusive troll.

  • @jcweights All he did was sing it slowly....his 'vocal performance' as you put it is nothing worth writing home about.....

  • @maxlogica "All he did was sing it slowly." That is not what you said in your first comment. You said "too fat to sing." I did not say his vocal performance was "nothing worth writing home about." Those are your words! I said "Size has nothing to do with his performance, which is why he is getting paid..." which is far from your skewed perspective of my words. Next time you quote someone especially yourself, make sure you get it right. Your argument might have some validity to it if you do.

  • @maxlogica Ever stood under stage 'spots?' , no - thought not! LOL

  • @maxlogica Troll much??

  • @maxlogica Another self imposed music critic without actual criticism to write home about.

    If all you can tell is that he sang a song that was already written to be sang slowly (since it`s a fucking 101 ballad as you can get) then you shouldn`t have the galls to even make a comment.

  • Who cares about his panzon, his voice is heavenly.

  • The Marcels version was great and Bobby Vinton's version is wonderful, but Malo's version just flat out tears me up!!!

  • the best cover of blue moon. THE BEST

  • Raul Malo, "The Voice"

    Beautiful!!

  • Can anyone translate "Riendo muy remenante"

    "La luna esta en el cielo" translates as "The moon is in the sky."

    "Con todos las estrellas" translates as "With all the stars."

  • @kemahwest......it´s "Brillando muy iluminante"....what happens is R. Malo whispers the words and can seem as you thinks..."shinin´ on brightly..." greetings from Spain...

  • Thank you. I picked up Riendo muy remenante from a translation on the net, because I couldn't figure it out from listening (I have a hearing loss). It makes a lot more sense now. It's a beautiful song.

  • This sounds like suicide :D But I like it!

  • Really fine stuff !

  • His voice is a gift from god. I wish i had it.

  • what about his waistline? do you wish you had that?

  • I find your comments to be quite shallow and pedantic.

  • thats wonderful

  • Yes, I agree. Shallow AND pedantic

  • Thanks buddy. People like him should stay the fuck off the computer.

  • superbe un regal pour l'esprit et notre sens auditif!!merci!

  • AWESOME...SIMPLY AWESOME!

  • Apollo 13 ... what a fantastic movie... i got this song on the soundtrack CD, bought in the 90's :)

  • unforgettable sentiment... i get it raul... i hope you find it... no one could deliver a performance like that who didn't feel it from his soul...much respect.

  • *my

  • Comment removed

  • it was recorded for the apollo 13 soundtrack, best song ever!!!!!!

  • Beautiful voice. And so much sentiment.

  • This is so nice....

    Songs like this never grow old...:-)

  • The arrangement is very similar to Elvis Presley's version, but, in my opinion, this is the definitive version of this song.

  • Ahhh...I could listen to Raul's voice for hours upon hours.....

    Thanks for posting. *****

  • 10 out of 10 Sis,

    loves ya loads!!

    Gorgeous, and, thank you. 5*****.

    Jennie.

    p.s. Where do I stand?

  • When was this song released

  • I was told it's on a Mavericks "Definitive Collection", but only the foreign release IIRC......

  • This guy poors it out! Makes me want to get up and dance for hours!

  • This man has a passion for music. He can do whatever piece he imagines. Blessed is he who can realise his dreams in music.

  • Raul has a very nice voice. He had some big hits and then he disappeared from the music scene (or so it seemed). It's good to hear him singing again..this version of "Blue Moon", very similar to Elvis', is very nicely done! *****

  • Went to high school with Raul and known him since junior high and he has always been very talented

  • bollocks

  • @spapsl was he a salad dodger at school too?

  • didnt know the guy b4 the johnny cash concert , and yes i had heard of the mavericks but did not 2 + 2 together ,blown away with rauls voice what else is there to say and would you believe i am a queen fan i thought freddie was a one off ,thank god he made more rock on raul keep on keeping on
