Both the John Maus version and this version are great. I like how this one is clean, and has more lyrics, but I also love John's haunting and reverberated duet with her, and it has more synths to it.
I know it's been so long since we saw each other last I'm sure we'll find some way to make the time pass Hey moon It's just you and me tonight everyone else is asleep Hey moon If I was to fall I would fall so deep Though I doubt I'm gonna, You can wake me up if you wanna And your pale, round face makes me feel at home in any place I would happen to be At a quarter past three The moon chased the sun out of the sky Goodbye sun the night's begun The moon chased the sun out of the sky Goodbye sunshine the night is mine Hey moon It's just you and me tonight everyone else is asleep Hey moon If I was to fall I would fall so deep Though I doubt I'm gonna, You can wake me up if you wanna I would hate for you to hang there alone The whole night through And I would love to spend the whole night Just looking at you And those seeds, little stars You spread around They make such a dramatic background I don't care for sunbeams No, I need the night to feed my dreams And that's why The moon chased the sun out of the sky Goodbye sun the night's begun The moon chased the sun out of the sky Goodbye sunshine the night is mine Hey moon My old friend Hey moon The night is coming to and end Hey moon Come back soon
I like the fact John Maus covered this, it's like he reflected the bright shining brilliance of Molly Nilsson as a moon might do a sun...This is crisper clearer brighter than the cover, his is more ethereal.
But the version of John Maus and together with molly nielson listen very very strange and like as to be forced so this without John Maus original is more better and simply molly nielson super songs that must be singed alone for lonely people and times of missed something to be loved, so thats the reason of why artists and actors are be create music and something else of their special feelings for this world so thank you molly nielson i like your music very well of and big greetings from the cow and friends team as me and myself for all the best moments we can share
update: molly nilsson's re-released "hey moon" to benefit black lives matter following john maus's attendance at the pro-trump rally that led to the insurgence of the us capitol. (2021)
Maus also went to the capital protest to protest cancel culture like its something new and people havent been getting ostracized for being assholes for generations already. And Ariel pink chooses to be a total asshole too and chases girls in their 20s while hes like pushing 40 . If these guys get cancelled its their own fault. I liked Johns Music but he should have done more. Be irreplacable or see yourself getting replaced and John is already unreplacable with his unique depressed sound so for him to go protest cancel culture is stupid. ITs all in his effing head and same with Ariel's limitless ego.
Hey moon,it's been so long,.....I play this for my long gone pets I treasured in life.one of the most touching songs I've ever heard.i cry sometimes when I hear it.
this song as with all truly great music in the world, holds time & space in a tiny little box & when you listen, you open it & are transported to the place you were when you first heard it.
"Ryokan, a Zen master, lived the simplest kind of life in a little hut at the foot of a mountain. One evening a thief visited the hut only to discover there was nothing to steal. Ryokan returned and caught him. "You have come a long way to visit me," he told the prowler, "and you should not return empty-handed. Please take my clothes as a gift." The thief was bewildered. He took the clothes and slunk away. Ryoken sat naked, watching the moon. "Poor fellow," he mused, "I wish I could have given him this beautiful moon."" :)
First i liked John Maus version better, but after a short time when I was listening to more and more music by this lady i started to prefer original "Hey Moon" more.
#Lyrics Hey moon If i was to fall I won't fall so deep Though I doubt I'm gonna You can wake me up if you wanna And your pale round face Makes me feel at home in any place I would happen to be At a quarter past three The moon chased the sun out of the sky "Goodbye sun! The night's begun" The moon chased the sun out of the sky "Goodbye sunshine! The night is mine" Hey moon It's just you and me tonight Everyone else is asleep Hey moon If I was to fall I won't fall so deep Though I doubt I'm gonna You can wake me up if you wanna I would hate for you to hang there all alone The whole night through And I would love to spend the whole night Just looking at you And those seeds, little stars You spread around They make such a dramatic background I don't care for sunbeams No, I need the night to feed my dreams And that's why The moon chased the sun out of the sky "Goodbye sun! The night's begun" The moon chased the sun out of the sky "Goodbye sunshine! the night is mine" Hey moon My old friend Hey moon The night is coming to and end Hey moon Come back soon

@@Al_Gore_Rhythmn Molly Nilsson's is way better. Actually, I think her version is just marginally better, as they're both great. Two vocalists and the extra layers are cool and all, but the sense of isolation and loneliness is not nearly so pronounced.
the original best version of this beautyfull song great work molly nielson i like your music storys of the realty and memory of times about the lifes for the more of the closed door of but by the moon light of your songs will be all so very easy and lovefull delicious
Damn i didn't know John Maus cover of this song was so damn lazy. It's the same song, just with Johns voice layered on top of Mollys and with some more synths and reverb, that really makes it a remix and not a cover.
It's even worse because he deleted some quite good sections too. There is some artistic merit to it being done as a duet, but I can feel real salty when I realize how little recognition Molly gets for this beautiful piece of music.
Came here via John Maus, but the intimacy of this version is turned up to eleven. Really wish I could have heard this version as well while I was staring at the sky and moon in Namibia. I'm going to (have to) check out Molly Nilsson :-)
I think everyone should be able to appreciate both versions. The original is much cleaner and soothing while John Maus' version dueting with Molly is much more haunting and reverberated. I love both.
It's because it's a simple 4 chord arpeggio that just repeats throughout the whole song, so it's just a typical chord progression that is probably found in several other songs due to chance alone. Out of any 4 chords you can combine in any order, only a small subset of them are going to sound normal/good in a short loop that keeps repeating. I think the only time this isn't generally the case is in classical music as the melodies are much more complicated, drawn out, and less repetitive.
Molly's version is better IMHO - it's the original, and the last verse that Maus doesn't include is very slick. The Maus version just has those thick bass rich overlaps on the vocal tracks that hook me deep hmm, bye.
//// Molly Nilsson clearly isn't just GREAT pals w THE MOON, but the muses in all their heavenly perfection!!!! /// oh & does this song make you weep like I do??? OK *not to lecture, but rather to set the record straight, John Maus did not do a cover of this song, but rather took Molly's original track & recorded his vocals over it. Like so many of us "the Maus" version was the 1st I heard so, not only do I love his music but appreciate that it pointed me towards her. That said, I think it would be lovely to read an interview w John Maus, where he is asked about her.....//// us girls can dream

We love Cold War!!

We indeed love Cold War
What?

Look it up, it's pretty good

I know it's been so long
since we saw each other last
I'm sure we'll find some way
to make the time pass
Hey moon
It's just you and me tonight
everyone else is asleep
Hey moon
If I was to fall
I would fall so deep
Though I doubt I'm gonna,
You can wake me up if you wanna
And your pale, round face
makes me feel at home in any place
I would happen to be
At a quarter past three
The moon chased the sun out of the sky
Goodbye sun
the night's begun
The moon chased the sun out of the sky
Goodbye sunshine
the night is mine
Hey moon
It's just you and me tonight
everyone else is asleep
Hey moon
If I was to fall
I would fall so deep
Though I doubt I'm gonna,
You can wake me up if you wanna
I would hate for you to hang there alone
The whole night through
And I would love to spend the whole night
Just looking at you
And those seeds, little stars
You spread around
They make such a dramatic background
I don't care for sunbeams
No, I need the night to feed my dreams
And that's why
The moon chased the sun out of the sky
Goodbye sun
the night's begun
The moon chased the sun out of the sky
Goodbye sunshine
the night is mine
Hey moon
My old friend
Hey moon
The night is coming to and end
Hey moon
Come back soon
When ever I glimpse the moon I think of this song. Thank you Molly.
Same here.
Molly you were the true OG.

It is a bit fucked that the youtube copyright algorithm has tagged this upload as John Maus though..

i still can't believe we walked on the moon - the footage is so gorgeous
Don't believe it, because we didn't...
Couldn't have done it without Operation Paperclip
It's all fake
Wow.....kinda mesmerized, I absolutely love the John Maus version, listen to it regularly.... didn't know this version existed 🖤🖤
Hey moon,it's been so long,.....I play this for my long gone pets I treasured in life.one of the most touching songs I've ever heard.i cry sometimes when I hear it.
beautiful song, beautiful lyrics, totally in love with it!
Effing love Molly Nilsson, her music is out of this world and her swagged out haircut.
Just stumbled upon this beautiful music. Love it! I am hooked to this lady's music!
good songwriting ~ indeed
listening to this and preparing for a night with a blood red full moon
Hypnotized by this limitless nostalgia
In love with this song !

Very nice story.thanks for sharing that.
melancholia, feeling so old, when you are just twenty one
I feel you. I was like that, always contemplating, listening to sad music. I'm now 30. Enjoy what you can, believe me :)
why am i attracted this type of music?
kevin urban beacuse it’s awesome
Appearently, you have a good taste
I’m listening to this hoping wherever you are in the universe you’re happy now. You can finally be everything and everywhere you’ve always wanted
Io la adoro... poi questo senso di assenza di gravità mi manda fuori di testa.
we love you molly!
I don't know why but this song takes to me to different places. Its like like traveling without moving

2020 still bumpin
I don't think anyone in 2008 would have guessed the weird trip this song took in 12 years
lmao fr. Never knew it was a cover. (The John Maus version, especially since it's his most popular song)
Glad I found the original. Besides all the political shit this version is better

Same. But john is betta
Molly's better.
Soooooo relaxing!
Shades of a space oddity.
This should have more views.
Beautiful
Song reminds me of this one special girl ✨ #Memories
Hey Moon
Irreplaceable you ❤️❤️
So good
A type of 'Space Oddity' feel. Poignant.

Irreplaceable you.
Great movie.
John Maus would probably say something crazy and mind-expanding about this. Best interviews ever come from that guy.
I love molly
Thank you
¡Me fascina!
I do like John Maus' cover a little more, but this is still amazing
Fuck maus
@@OkaySoShit yeah, the Maus version is better regardless of his politics. grow the fuck up
I absolutely love John's version. I like this one too, but John's just puts me over the....well, the moon!

Reminds me of a kids lullaby
Wow
I prefer this version
10 years, 40 years, 200 years? How bout I'm doin none of them.
what do ppl mean by this?
a cover of this song was used on a since cancelled adult swim show with a cult audience(myself included)
Enjoy
I like!
i love that someone just filmed this on a TV, adds to it somehow
I cant believe i just found out that that John Maus version is a cover
When I heard this it felt like I've heard this melody before somewhere as a child. Is it sampled or something?
Yusuke Urameshi it might sound familiar because it’s on 4-bit, like with the Mario Bros etc theme song?
I felt the exact same thing but can't remember anything in particular
It's because it's a simple 4 chord arpeggio that just repeats throughout the whole song, so it's just a typical chord progression that is probably found in several other songs due to chance alone. Out of any 4 chords you can combine in any order, only a small subset of them are going to sound normal/good in a short loop that keeps repeating.
