That Stardust album....Oh-MY.....he took REALLY old songs...and totally walked away with them! Moonlight thru the pines, kids!

@elkhartmartin then, go listen to the Nat version

My dad's favorite was Hoagy Carmichael...but I know he would have loved Willie's version.

How anyone can think this great cover of Stardust 'sucks' just boggles the mind. Nelson's take is one of the most soulful versions of this great song I've ever heard ... and I've heard maybe 50-60 covers of Stardust in my life.
Nat King Cole and his daughter are actually among the few who've sung it with the intro, and frankly I think Nat's version comes off a bit stiff and overly-mannered in comparison with what Willie Nelson does with it. And I am a huge fan of Nat King Cole.

@elkhartmartin Your taste in music must suck if you think this isnt good. If you think its so bad why did you listen to it ? Get a life you moron.

well, i think this sucks. he doesn't even sing the first part of the song. so its basically a dumbed down version which does not do justice to the original. i like willie but this ... is pretty close to a travesty. if you want to hear the song done properly, i would suggest you listen to the nat king cole version.

river58dale... fyi.. Can you read? I never said he wrote it. I said he recorded it. Read it. I said it was his renditions of the Classics. I can't believe I'm even typing this for you. "recorded Stardust"... not "wrote Stardust" Are you simple?



He'd covered and written so many great songs in his career. I wish he'd finally get the full recognition he really deserves. As funny as some of the "front row at a Willie Nelson concert" jokes are, I'd love to see him finally recognized as the tremendous talent he is.
