Talk:Dancing in the Moonlight

King Harvest
The King Harvest page says that it was written by Altback and that the previous band was Boffalongo. -- Beardo 07:33, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

is there a new version of this song? - — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.228.182.234 (talk) 21:18, 24 July 2006 (UTC)


 * This label on the King Harvest LP says Ronnie Altbach. AMCKen (talk) 23:41, 26 December 2021 (UTC)

Toploader
The Toploader page says it was this song. -- Beardo 14:26, 7 December 2006 (UTC)
 * OK - this page now agrees. -- Beardo 02:35, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

Fairfield Parlour
I may be going mad, but I am fairly certain I once owned a single, recorded by Fairfield Parlour, of the "Dancing in the Moonlight" song. However, I am struggling to find any hard evidence to confirm this. Can anyone help / comment ?!

 * Finally... after about seven and a half years, it appears it must have been 'High Broom' 's version that I owned. Slightly less mad now, although definitely older ! - Derek R Bullamore (talk) 00:40, 25 April 2014 (UTC)

Boffalongo / Buffalongo ?
An unregistered user has added the followoing in the wrong place.

"1970 by two British bands: one called Boffalongo, the other called High Broom. Boffalongo later became King Harvest." Buffalongo not Boffalongo. Boffalongo was a US (Ithaca NY) Band not British. Boffalongo sort of became King Harvest, but two of Boffalongo's members became Orleans (Dance With Me, You're Still The One)

I removed - not sure if there is anything that can be salvaged for the article. -- Beardo 07:32, 15 January 2007 (UTC)

cover versions
and don't forget about the wonderful version of david kitt... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.152.165.121 (talk) 19:05, 17 September 2007 (UTC)

Fools Garden have not made a cover. And if they have, it is impossible to track down. Only version I've found is a mislabeled Toploader version. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.137.194.64 (talk) 15:11, 3 November 2009 (UTC)

Fair Use?
This page contains a high-quality copy of the full-length song, not a sample or a low-res piece. How can this possibly be legitimate? SJFriedl (talk) 22:31, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Alyson Stoner
Surprised no mention of Alisson Stoner who has this out as a hit single in 2009. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 204.76.166.50 (talk) 00:52, 14 June 2009 (UTC)


 * Alyson Stoner now duly listed.

Jamiroquai
Did Jamiroquai actually do a cover of this song? I would be extremely interested to see some evidence for this. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 27.32.228.247 (talk) 11:52, 28 April 2011 (UTC)

Cover versions
Jamiroquai. I don't think he has covered this. I've googled it and there was a forum discussing whether or not it was true, from having seen it on here. So I am removing it. Novalia (talk) 00:16, 17 December 2013 (UTC)

Expand toploader version
This is now a platinum record in the UK and has charted several times. Needs its own section within covers with chart/sales/release details. (Please) Btljs (talk) 11:07, 11 January 2015 (UTC)

Keyboard part
It says that the song's keyboard part was played on a Wurlitzer electric piano. I understand that the following statement is technically original research (which I know we can't use when editing articles) but it doesn't sound like the Wurlitzer electric pianos I hear in other songs with this instrument. It sounds more like a Fender Rhodes. It's possible that the keyboard part could have come from a number of different sources. Maybe it's a different model of the Wurlitzer than that of other songs with this instrument.--Kevjgav (talk) 10:17, 11 August 2015 (UTC)

Cover Versions
The link to "Young Generation" redirects to "Dashing Buffalo", a Vietnamese Professional League of Legends team, not the "Singing and Dancing act" mentioned. I cannot find a Wikipedia page for them, so cannot fix the link and don't know how to proceed.

The closest mention I can find is for their choreographer, Dougie Squires.: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dougie_Squires
