"Honky Tonk Moon," Randy Travis

This 1988 single by one of country music's most beloved singers serves as an example of how he brought tradition back to the charts.

"Texas Moon," Stoney LaRue

Glide across the dance hall floor to this sweet as sugar love song by Stoney LaRue that's part modern red dirt jewel, part AM gold nugget.

"American Flag on the Moon," Brad Paisley

Brad Paisley thinks anything must be possible if American astronauts could plant the stars and stripes on another planet.

"Buicks To The Moon," Alan Jackson

Instead of loving her until the sun blows up, Alan Jackson promises to stay with his lady until they're sending luxury automobiles into outer space.

"Sugar Moon," Willie Nelson

Willie Nelson celebrated the work of Cindy Walker in a grandiose way with this Texas-honoring two-stepper.

"Bad Moon Rising," Creedence Clearwater Revival

John Fogerty and CCR get a little paranoid here about what goes down when there's not a gorgeous full moon in the night sky.

"I Don't Know a Thing About Love (The Moon Song)," Conway Twitty

It's weird to associate the phrase "I Don't Know a Thing About Love" with Conway Twitty, considering the content of his obvious songs. Although he's not saying that about himself, or any other human, in this literal dispatch from the Moon.

"Howlin' at the Moon," Hank Williams

Acting like an ole hound dog and howling at the moon are among the side effects of love, per the father of modern country music.

"From Here to the Moon and Back," Dolly Parton

You can't round out 25 songs about anything morally decent without multiple Parton picks, even if you have to look to a relatively recent collaboration.

"Shame on the Moon," Bob Seger

Blues-rock giant Bob Seger and his Silver Bullet Band nearly play a Western stroll that, without the familiar voice from "Night Moves" front-and-center, would sound like a long-lost a country song.

"Cajun Moon," Ricky Skaggs

One of the signature songs of hall of famer Ricky Skaggs celebrated both his bluegrass roots and the rich cultural and musical traditions of Louisiana.

"Lying To The Moon," Trisha Yearwood

At her peak, Trisha Yearwood could rival Ronnie Milsap when it came to making the most of piano-based songs about heartbreak.

"Rope the Moon," John Michael Montgomery

The most versatile '90s hit maker went from knee-slappers like "The Grundy County Auction Incident" to slow, weepy songs like this poignant ode to fatherhood.

"Missouri Moon," Rhonda Vincent

The first lady of modern bluegrass sings a gentle ballad that's ideal for front porch picking sessions on any night with a clear sky.
