Everyone's Gone To The Moon - Bette Midler

[ObscureAuteur]

Great staged rendition. Still I think this song is an inside songwriting trade joke proving that one can still get a hit in the 1960's just by rhyming June, Moon, and Spoon, just like in old old days.

Wonder if there was a bet riding on it? In a couple of spots here Midler seems to indicate that she does not take these words too seriously as well, but as she says at the start of this show she will do anything for her art, .. or her bust.

Was fortunate to see Miss M perform this in concert in the 80's and I loved it and hoped she'd record it.

@57timmyb I did too, and I was over awed...wow what a performance (the trilogy of songs that she did this in)

I remember her singing soda and a souvenir sitting on the stage edge within reach of people and she just charmed and made us all feel like "once in a lifetime" experience

:)))

Wow! 80's-tastic! Love the hula hoop and those figure-8 disk thingies!!

This is one of her most amazing performances. I love it so much.

This concert ends with a twenty, twenty five minute set that I think defines this great American artist. The whole show is sensational but the last 20 minutes is breathtaking.

Why isn't Art or Bust DVD available? Anyone know?

[RedRockMark]

Did she ever record this song on an album? Such a beautiful and sweet song!

[delagosis]

nope, she never recorded this one, sadly

[jegcreations]

OH MY GOD! One of my favorite songs! And Bette!
