Moonflight (song)

"Moonflight" is a song written and originally recorded by Vik Venus (Alias: Your Main Moon Man) in 1969. It is a 'break-in' song, with popular hits of the day interspersed at humorous points throughout the song in response to spoken-word prompts, in the style of Dickie Goodman, who had many such hits. "Moonflight" became a hit during the summer of '69, reaching #38 U.S. Billboard and #23 Cash Box. It also charted in Canada, where it reached #20. It did best in South Africa, however, where it reached #7.

The song was Venus' only hit record. However, a follow-up song, also Moon-landing themed, was released entitled "Moonjack". The featured 'break-in' songs, however, were sampled in the style of Alvin and the Chipmunks.

Dickie Goodman also did a Moon-landing themed song entitled "Luna Trip".
