Since 1934, the song has been recorded by many performers: Connee Boswell, Billie Holiday, Frank Sinatra, Mel Torme, Vaughn Monroe, Dean Martin, Frankie Laine & Michel Legrand, and Tony Bennett, with Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Dizzy Gillespie, and Django Reinhardt pitching in with the most famous jazz versions.

The first crossover recording to rock and roll came from Elvis Presley, but the version that really stirred things up came from The Marcels, a doo-wop group. In 1961 the Marcels had 3 songs to record and needed one more. Producer Stu Phillips did not like any of the other songs except one that had the same changes as Heart and Soul and Blue Moon. He asked them if they knew either, and one knew Blue Moon and taught it to the others, though with the middle section wrong. The famous introduction to the song (bomp-baba-bomp" and "dip-da-dip") was an excerpt of an original song that the group had in its act. The record sold a million copies and is featured in The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll.

In 1967, Eric Clapton used a portion of the song in his guitar solo from Cream's hit "Sunshine of Your Love." Bob Dylan covered the song on his Self Portrait album. In 1978, an arrangement by Jeff Funk was used in the film Grease. This has been followed by a country version from The Mavericks. More recently, it has been recorded by Rod Stewart. Cybill Shepherd sang "Blue Moon" on an episode of Moonlighting (the detective agency in that show was called "Blue Moon Investigations".)

The Canadian band Cowboy Junkies recorded a rendition of "Blue Moon" on their 1988 album The Trinity Session — their version combined the song into a medley with an original song written by the band.

In the 1982 film An American Werewolf in London, three different versions are used. Bobby Vinton's plays over the opening credits, Sam Cooke's ballad is used during a transformation sequence and The Marcels' doo-wop version is used over the closing credits.

In 1995 Australian virtuoso guitarist Tommy Emmanuel recorded a rendition of "Blue Moon" on his album Initiation, without vocals. His fingerpicking style is used extensively on this track.

A cover has also been done by Fado legend Amalia Rodrigues.

In 1997, Virginia acapella band Da Vinci's Notebook recorded "Blue Moon" on their first album, as an acapella song.

In 1998 Texas band Course of Empire recorded "Blue Moon" on their third album.

In 2002 Polish rockabilly band Komety recorded "Blue Moon" on their debut album.

In 2002 Samantha Mumba recorded it for her second album Woman.

In 2006, the song was covered by OPM band Orange and Lemons, which served as the theme song of the movie of the same name.

In 2007 Helmut Lotti, a Dutch singer from Belgium, covered this song on his "crooners cd".

Blue moon
You saw me standing alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own
Blue moon
You know just what I was there for
You heard me saying a prayer for
Someone I really could care for

And then there suddenly appeared before me
The only one my arms will hold
I heard somebody whisper please adore me
And when I looked to the moon it turned to gold

Blue moon
Now Im no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own

And then there suddenly appeared before me
The only one my arms will ever hold
I heard somebody whisper please adore me
And when I looked the moon had turned to gold

Blue moon
Now Im no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own

Blue moon
Now Im no longer alone
Without a dream in my heart
Without a love of my own
