This month's trivia question should be fun & challenging: name all the gypsy jazz songs you can think of that have the name of a celestial body in their title. This month, the celestial body name doesn't have to stand alone, meaning it can be part of another word. For example, Stardust is fair game, since it contains the word "star". Let's not use celestial phenomenon like "heaven" or "clouds", but rather keep it to actual celestial bodies. As before, any song that Django recorded, or that is part of the modern gypsy jazz repertoire, is fine. Stardust is one, I have 12 others. Add yours here & try not to do repeats. After you post yours, I'll post my 13 as well as any that the forum produces that I didn't think of.
