Everything about Moonlight In Vermont Song totally explained
"
Moonlight in Vermont" is a
popular song about the U.S. state of
Vermont.
It was written by
John Blackburn and
Karl Suessdorf and published in
1943. The lyrics are very unusual for an American pop song of the 1940s, because they don't rhyme and are impersonal, focusing mostly on the sensory appeal of the Vermont countryside while alluding briefly to romance. The lyrics are also metrically subtle: Each verse (not counting the bridge) is a
haiku. The song is considered an unofficial state song of Vermont and is frequently played as the first dance song at Vermont wedding receptions.
An early version was recorded by
Margaret Whiting in
1943. The song was also recorded by
Willie Nelson in
1978,
Ella Fitzgerald and
Louis Armstrong in 1956, and
Frank Sinatra in 1957.
Captain Beefheart recorded a song called 'Moonlight On Vermont' for his album,
Trout Mask Replica, which could be considered a parody of this better known song.
