The Song For Every Brokenhearted
Written by Ronnie Dunn, “Neon Moon” tells the tale of a man feeling brokenhearted after the woman he loves left him. He got a table of two at a rundown bar where he sits alone, thinking of how he lost his significant other. But most notably, he found himself spending most of his nights finding some comfort from “the light of a neon moon.” “I spend most every night, beneath the light of a neon moon. If you lose your one and only, there’s always room here for the lonely. To watch your broken dreams dance in and out of the beams of a neon moon,” the song goes. It was originally released by the duo Brooks & Dunn in 1992 as the third single from their debut album Brand New Man. “Neon Moon” became their third consecutive No. 1 single on US Hot Country Songs charts. It also peaked at No. 1 on Canada Country Tracks charts. With Kacey Musgraves’ addition to the song, it quickly turned the barroom weeper into pulsing, chillwave honky-tonk, reminding you that perhaps things will all just turn out fine in the end.
