‘Blue Moon’ was originally sung by Crewe Alexandra's fans. Songs like ‘ Delilah’ and ‘ Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life’ are two that did stick around for a while, with ‘Delilah’ now remaining as Stoke City’s anthem of choice. The eighties was a time when clubs started to adopt new songs on the then-terraces, rather than chants. So, just how did those iconic lyrics become etched into so many City fans' subconscious? The song has also featured in films including At The Circus, Viva Las Vegas, Grease and An American Werewolf in London. Over 60 different artists have recorded their own versions of ‘Blue Moon’, offering a list that is as diverse as it is dazzling.ĭjango Reinhardt, Billie Holiday, Dizzy Gillespie, Louis Armstrong, Julie London, Sam Cooke, Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, The Supremes, Bob Dylan, Rod Stewart and many more have also recorded their own take.
