"Lucky Moon" is a song written by Doug Johnson and Mark Wright and recorded by American country music group The Oak Ridge Boys, featuring Steve Sanders. It was released in March 1991 as the first single from the album Unstoppable. The song reached No. 6 on the Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart.[1] It was the group's last Top 10 hit.
Critical reception
[edit]Edward Morris wrote in a column for Billboard that "Besides being a catchy, sing-along tune, it's also one that unleashes the Oaks' rich, buoyant vocal harmonies. The lads haven't sounded this fresh in ages."[2]
Other versions
[edit]In 2011, the group rerecorded the song with a new arrangement and bass singer Richard Sterban on lead vocals for It's Only Natural.
