"Rope the Moon" is a song written by Jess Brown, Aggie Brown and Jimmy Denton, and recorded by American country music artist John Michael Montgomery.
It was released in March 1994 as the second single from his album Kickin' It Up. It peaked at number 4 in the United States, and number 2 in Canada.
The music video was directed by Marc Ball, and premiered in early 1994.
The video depicts a different concept whereas, instead of being a love song to a significant other, it depicts a father-daughter relationship.
This particular concept was an idea directly from Montgomery himself.

onefortheroad Looking at the art work, I cannot decide whether you are the 'fellow' with the rope, although he's likely more muscular than you, or the "moon" which is certainly skinnier than you. This is a 'new' song to my ears...and no one better to introduce it than you. You did a great job on this beauty!

@jerry Ha Ha! I borrowed the artwork from the Christmas classic "It's A Wonderful Life." I thought it was very apropo. I'm a combination of the skinny guy and the fat moon....somewhere in the middle....lol Thank you very much for your over-the-top response to my cover. I really appreciate it. Glad to introduce this awesome song to you. Happy Father's Day, Jerry!....:-)

@bevb Thanks, Bev! I just love the lyrics in this song. I'm having a lot of fun resurrecting some hits from John Michael. He is such a great entertainer. I took my wife to see him and Jo Dee Messina in an outdoor pavilion night time concert back in 2004. They were both awesome!....:-)
