What is the one country song, that you would that you would dedicate in honor, and memory of Neil Armstrong's passing today? Mine is a Country Gospel song by Ferlin Husky "Wings of a Dove."

For those not old enough, or may not know who he was, he was the first man to walk on the surface of the moon, on July 21, 1969. It was one of the biggest events, of the twentieth century.

Silver Wings by Merle Haggard but I like it sang best by Garret Hedlund because it sounds a little better. I'm sure you know the song though....

"I'm stepping through the door

And I'm floating in a most peculiar way

And the stars look very different today"

What about George Strait's duet with Frank Sanatra, "Fly Me To The Moon"? (it's on Disk 4 of George's "Strait Out Of The Box" box set)

"Miss American Pie" - Don McClean. I know it's more 'folkey', but, that's the first song that came to mind... RIP Neil Armstrong.<3
