My friend and I kinda have this obsession with the moon. It's a long story, but whenever we look at the moon we each think of the other. So I want to make her a mix tape containing songs about the moon, or even songs that just mention the moon.
I have a few good ones ("You Are The Moon" by The Hush Sound, obviously, and "Honey And The Moon" by Joseph Arthur, and I guess maybe "Satellite" by Guster) but I'm looking for more. Mainly more mellow, slower songs, like those three. No hardcore please.
So any suggestions? Much appreciated :]

Also, Pink Floyd had an album called "Dark Side of the Moon," and Modest Mouse has an album called "The Moon and Antarctica"
And the original drummer for The Who? was named Keith Moon. You could put some Who songs on the tape.
