[saucymauve]

Thankyou for sharing!I really enjoyed this piece by him:)

[AnInnocentBystander9]

Favorite Van Morrison song.

Of all time.

[penguin99ify]

When somebody hums this tune in the street, everybody immediately recognizes it, irregardless if not knowing the song's name or the artist. That's when you know you're a successful song writer. Anybody tried humming a hip-hop song lately...?

[musicloverofthe70s80]

its a full moon what a great time for a moon dance

[xaon65]

I love the flute in this song

[MrDETROIT93]

my interest in good music brought me here

[xaon65]

why are old people saying this kids are dumb for listening to music they like? Makes you sound like an idiot.

[KillingIsMyBuisness8]

Great singer,great song!THUMBS-UP FOR THOSE WHO DISAGREE

[denisehersh7]

This songs is pure and goes right to my heart....I love this song.....care to have a MOONDANCE with me?

[danecookisawesome888]

why does it say "piano solo" when that's a sax solo? 2:32 - 3:00 ?

[hjolol]

@danecookisawesome888 cause the guy doesnt have a left speaker xD

[Only1HighlighterLeft]

It sounds a ton better when sung by Jonathan Ryhs Meyers in August Rush.

[AnnaTheFairy]

hot street singer and guitar player from berlin brought me here! <3

[rmtmiller]

The feel good song for vampires around midnight!

[metallica4432]

[slspartanlvr59]

what a beautiful song. ♥

[sevenponderingmonkey]

Something I like to remind the younger people is that I became something I'm happy with by respecting my elders and nodding to the youth. It's just that simple.

[NoobKittehz]

I'm 122 guys. Chill.

[itistime777]

Im an embryo and i dont know what your on about..

[Fptsoccer9]

[seventea7]

[BeezieMadden13]

@seventea7 so? I'm 13

[MitchCCloudy]

I wasn't brought here by a TV show, I was brought here by my love for a great song I grew up listening to.

[trikstar198]

now this is real music (im 16 and i can see that)

[DimebagJim420]

Where's my cigar and whiskey?

[murderblade7]

i was told that van morrisons version was better than buble. 0:36 said enough.

[DragonToesK]

This song gives me a female boner. 8========D This is after seeing the part in An American Werewolf in London..XD

[johnpfeifer2]

@GoofballLOL wow um that is really stupid thing to post on a van morrison song but....congrats ;)

[nemoede]

way better voice than jim moorison

[Psychafunkadelic]

@nemoede its not a competition man the doors couldnt be the doors without jim i'd like to see Van Morrison sing not to touch the Earth, But i'm sure Jim could give a somewhat decent cover of moondance or into the mystic think before you speak and spell btw, lol

[65whiskeygirl]

my first real big crush had a boat by the name of this song,he use to play this song to me ,we would hang on the boat,man I wounder what ever happen too him were h is now.

[georgedammo]

I just turned 5 years old I don't have any pubic hair yet and THIS IS MY FAVOURITE SONG OF ALL TIME. Now everyone on youtube should love me!

[shnyguy]

@georgedammo Okay well thats too much information. Why would we want to know that about what state your body is in. Glad you like the song though, it is very jazzy! ;)

[georgedammo]

@shnyguy lol I was only kidding man there seems to be a growing trend amongst people posting their young ages to classics like this song and stating "that they love the song" I was just taking the piss out of it

[theninjasailor]

@jennnykennny there are a lot of things that suck about this generation, but not everything. And you can't say your generation was so high and mighty because every generation has problems.

[Amz2014]

It's a fantabulous night for a moondance, just don't give me an STD hahaha, this is my fav. song to play for Pep Band...Slam Funk!

[PoppySandals]

Spike THE BARTENDER

[romatesh]

Who can possibly DISlike this? Who?

[PInk77W1]

@romatesh my thoughts exactly!!!!

[romatesh]

@PInk77W1 I mean it boggles the mind, right? ;-)

[billythekid562]

i love this song and im only a curled up fetus!!! -_-

[brett2tt]

an american werewolf in london brought me here.

[rmtmiller]

@brett2tt , Yes! I was just watching that on tv the other night!  And I thought the vampires danced to this around midnight!

[mulder19x95]

@brett2tt have you ever tried talking to a corpse. it's boring

[MrTylerrocksyou]

@brett2tt 102.7 Brought me here.

[metallicarocks911]

when i turned on the radio in my moms car i heard this song... when the next song came on i turned the radio off :)

[TheMmacrazy]

I live across the road from where this man grew up!

[kocnn]

Thanks Van, Love to listen to your music,not commenting on bands I dont like, KO

[kocnn]

Thanks Van, Love to listen to your music,

[alhabbo]

Van is the only artist that can use the word fantabulous in a song and make it sound...fantabulous!! Great recording

[tyknos93]

I swear if any video is older than a year people want to make a claim about music being horrible nowadays or how your age somehow means youre more sophisticated than the average adolescent. No one gives a damn. Any bozo can get on a computer and find something incredible. What have you made lately? Now shut up and listen to the music. If it's awesome say that. No need to try and put down others in the process.

[marotheck]

why is it that every one is posting there age?

[TheSeanoftheBread]

@marotheck Apparently being young is an accomplishment.

[marotheck]

@TheSeanoftheBread haha, apparently 

[ghstrombone1]

@marotheck They are probably trying to prove something.

[spartan00547]

@marotheck i dont think any1 is idiot

[gbrownstrat]

@marotheck I don't know (21 year old).

[hjolol]

@marotheck they think they're awesome because they listen to music thats not from their generation

[kallemick]

@marotheck they just think that theres something special about them listening to this kind of music because theyre young but i never understood why since there is alot of people listening to this which i know because everybody is posting their age XD

[TheAnimusification]

@marotheck They think it makes them special that they're young and listen to old music.

[b264753178]

i prefer michael bubble for this song but this is good too

[n1GibsonGuitarist]

American Werewolf in London

[MissSugarrX]

I learnt this on sax

[Shannon462981]

I'm 15 and i don't like this song anymore /:

[DrDumb002]

@Shannon462981 Tell us more.

[Shannon462981]

@DrDumb002 doesn't really matter anymore. thanks though.

[demonicdominic84]

this song and bill withers' "lean on me'' are my favorite songs:D

[Aohco8a]

Man this song is smooth.....

[ninjaswilldominate]

i love this song. it makes me smile everytime i hear it :P

[bigredxxx]

Hey this is no different than todays music except just really good instrumentals ;) same message though.

[talinw]

the only complaint I have with this video is that it says 'piano solo' when it is *clearly* a sax solo. I love it!

[daoist23]

5000 people have a heart

[detlevhannes79]

i'm truely sorry for todays teenagers...perry,  gaga, biber, guetta and so on ruined music

[arkadykrongrad]

One of my favorites.

[ThAtGuYiNaThOnG]

My school band and I performed this song at a Jazz festival xD

[MrNickjrich]

@ThAtGuYiNaThOnG lucky lol

[Winifred9615]

@ThAtGuYiNaThOnG That's cool! Same here! My marching band and I performed this as our final song in our show.

[dillenskatevids]

it doesn't matter how old you are when you listen to good music like this it's about listening to it.

[BabyPuma124]

Perfect song for this Indian Summer day in November. Thanks for posting...& with lyrics included.

[MusicalPastries]

Ambrosia...

[jimmieskaggs]

so beautiful.

[aseea1000]

beautiful voice, beautiful lyrics, beautiful music. Your the man VAN!

[NotEnoughWhales]

I think all of us can agree that this is a great song, no matter how old you are, so frankly I don't care about your age. and george111992 has a good point, Modern Music isn't all bad, and you can't say that unless you've thoroughly looked and dug for it. It may be easier to find good music in the past but, let's face it, we can't time travel so enjoy the music as it is now, legendary.

[george111992]

Jesus Christ. Am I the only person here with the capability of appreciating modern music and older music, like Jazz? I fucking love Cudi and Morrison, the both of them. "And I'm 19." Every note is beautiful.

[hibbertjordan]

i love everything that has real music , fuck all the modern computerised shit , and i am 19

[mountain36wolf]

The flute & bass are making love together in this song.

[Andamoga1]

Everybody wants to live in the past when people actually listen songs like this. I don't want that because 40 years ago, in my country people didn't have access to music from other countries because it was under the communist regime. So I am happy because NOW I can listen to good music (even if I am only 14).

P.S. Sorry my bad English. I am from Romania.

[punkistz]

@Andamoga1 same here :)

[jennnykennny]

..... This generation sucks ass. Well the music.. no everything about it. I would kill to live back when my parents were living so I could experience REAL music, as it was coming out. Not all this 'I'm sexy and I know it' shit..

[fil190]

@jennnykennny To quote alexisonfire : 'Cause you can waste your time, redefining the day that music died

Or you can spend your life, guilt free and ostracized

[InfiniteCharade]

@jennnykennny You're just listening in the wrong place, friend. Great music is still around, it's just be suffocated by the shit.

[LarryLawyerGorman]

@jennnykennny Wow, well this is a really silly comment. What recent music do you listen to? The radio shit? Dude, you are missing bands like Fleet Foxes and lots of other great groups.

[pailmaster]

@jennnykennny its not all bad i mean theres ehm well you know..... that one band thats

who am i kidding i am 24 and i hate the music we have today just about every famous artist out there today either uses electronic sound in their songs or are complete sell outs and it sucks

i am a rock person so i was born 10-20 years too late so i missed most of the really good stuff so i jealous of people who is old enogh to have listen to when music still mattered

[MidWestWop]

@pailmaster check out "The Builders and the Butchers" if your into original, pure music. I think you'll fall in love as I have.

[MysticMydsummerMoon]

@jennnykennny Not *all* this generations music sucks, just 95% of it.

[a10dollarhooker]

@jennnykennny Amen.

[OutsideTheWall94]

@jennnykennny Woah...Not cool. Im apart of "This generation" and I do not appreciate the music at all! Why do you have to say I suck man....im here arent I? lol

[jennnykennny]

@OutsideTheWall94 I'm 14.. I'm part of it too ;) 

[lovethedeathmachine]

@jennnykennny There still is good music being made. i could argue this is the best generation for good music. you just have to look for it. its there though, i promise you,

[drekzi]

@jennnykennny amen to that dude!

[oglethorp45]

i am like 3 and i fucking love this song! I win bitches.

[j6282]

@oglethorp45 I am still in the mother's womb 

[oglethorp45]

@j6282 Damn you win.

[bobthebuilder2143]

I love playing this in my band class. :)

[Ike0127]

pretty sure that was a sax solo =D

[TheHorse108]

Thumbs up if you love this song!!! B )

[deProfundisClamoAdTe]

I don't mind most modern music, but every now and then, it's nice to get back to the classics.

[missgraves]

Ween should COVER this!

[TheEnemycowman]

The part in the middle isnt a piano solo, piano is a rythymm instrument, it's a sax solo

[kbcomed3]

@TheEnemycowman oh yeah buddy! thas me

[TheEnemycowman]

@kbcomed3 yay

[DrunkOnWoodys]

I'm 12 and what is this?

[LzMoses]

@DrunkOnWoodys

it's called music, real music, with real instruments, with soul, with spirit, its REAL music

[j6282]

@DrunkOnWoodys good music is what it is, little boy

[DrunkOnWoodys]

@j6282 Who you calling little boy you filthy phoetus? Go clean yourself up

[j6282]

@DrunkOnWoodys i am clean. you should learn what good music is and refrain from questioning it.

[WeedmareFilms]

Mmm, Jenny Agutter. *Homer drools.*

[THEBRUMBLEBEE]

I <3 MY MOONBoO

[coodoo17]

[jhunter1021]

[Theimortal1forever]

The 48 dislikes to this song. Its those people that are jealous that they do not have a dance partner. ;)

[Iwasateeninthe80s]

40 years old, this tune, and it's still fresh. Marvelous.

[jessejames008]

(L)

[hotmn4u]

[happyharv1]

Brilliant .....possibly musical genius.

[DavidEppursimuove]

Ningun hombre blanco canta como Van Morrison

[MYHEARTMUTMINI10]

@DavidEppursimuove hay muchos blancos que cantan y crean maravillas, pero Van Morrison es de los mejores sin dudas.

[DavidEppursimuove]

@MYHEARTMUTMINI10 Si. Bueno, yo me refeira al comentario de Greil Marcus.

[MrColliboy]

Would love to make love to my darling Sue in the moonlight...no matter where...together it would be so perfect...just you...me....and the moonlight xxx

[ennell1]

INCREDIBLE SUCH A GOD

[Shannon462981]

Danced under the stars and moon with a very special person in the middle of an empty football field. Perfect homecoming

[cannistrar1]

A Timeless Classic!

[belianis]

I first heard this song early in 2011, and could not find it in YOUTUBE because I thought its name was either NIGHT MAGIC or NIGHT MADNESS. Fortunately a friend to whom I hummed the tune recognised it and told me its real name.

[MFjazzfan]

jazz in the modern world!!! so rare!

[xXTrustmeimadoctorXx]

@MFjazzfan too rare, so it would seem

[MFjazzfan]

i played in a gig with a real jazz band! i feel so fortunate to have played this song! btw im not past college so i feel especially lucky...

[chuchu2019]

[KarenUsina]

Just was told to listen to this song...then maybe I would get how he thinks and feels....Can't stop blushing.......All that I can say is ...WOW....and he can have as many "Moondances as his heart desires.....xoxo

[senerakk123]
