I am taking a high school astronomy class, and I am interested in doing a project concerning traditional songs about astronomical things (the stars/constilations, the moon, eclipses, sun, northern lights, and so on). I only know a few songs like this. Bright Morning Stars, obviously. Sinner Man might be relevent (the part about the bleeding moon and the falling stars). There is a song by the pop/punk band They Might Be Giants called why does the sun shine, and is is to the tune of The Real old Mountian Dew as sung by the clancy brothers. Does anyone else have any other ideas, or favorite songs concerning whats in the sky? Thanks!!
