This idea sprung from here.

Track 1 Side 1 - And It Stoned Me is here.

Well, it's a marvelous night for a moondance
With the stars up above in your eyes
A fantabulous night to make romance
'Neath the cover of October skies

--Moondance

Any song with the word "fantabulous" in it deserves its legendary status. "Moondance" is like a soft dream...the kind you wake up from and immediately fight to fall back into. Van Morrison literally makes up a word, and has you thinking that no other word would have sufficed.
