"Goodnight Moon" is a song by the American alternative rock band Shivaree, written by Ambrosia Parsley and Duke McVinnie. It is the seventh track on the band's debut album I Oughtta Give You a Shot in the Head for Making Me Live in This Dump.

The song was first featured in the third season of the hit television series, Dawson's Creek in 2000. It later appeared during the ending credits of the 2004 film Kill Bill: Volume 2 and is featured on the soundtrack album. The song also plays through the closing scenes and the end credits of the 2002 French film, Monique.[1] A re-recorded version by Parsley and The Elegant Too appears on the soundtrack to the 2012 film Silver Linings Playbook.

This song is considered by many music lovers to be a one-hit wonder.[2][3]
