They have a DVD of a life perfomance with a full orchestra: "Days of Future Passed" They do the whole album back-to-back. And they were in their 70's when it was recorded. Truly cool. just watched it last night.
Mr, Ray is the one that recites the spoken words at the end of this Song, which I think adds a lot to it.. Ms. O, us need to find a version that has the spoken words and listen to it.. ♠W.G.
Justin wrote this song (lead singer) when he was 19 and in love. Later, he married the girl he wrote it for ❤❤ I was 17 when this was released and also in love, but never married him!!
After almost 50 years of listening to them, it can still move the emotions in me when they play something as timeless and ethereal as Nights in White Satin. I believe it was moving her, emotionally. Welcome to the club!
When you place a full orchestra behind a classic piece of music ...this is what you get ......just like the 2006 live performance of Whiter Shade of Pale ....
Yes , now you can understand why music in the sixties and early seventies was so fantastic. It was not just great to hear , it was also a education we all needed. If you just found the Moody Blues get ready for a great education in life. Beatles and Moody Blues were blowing peoples heads off with info. Glad you found them.
Dear woman. A beautiful woman enjoying a beautiful piece of music. Never be shy to show how something like this can touch you deep inside your soul. Welcome to the era of when musicians had pure talent. I loved watching the music take you to a place you have never been to before. This is music I grew up with and I'm very thankful.
And this is only the tip of the iceberg. The Moody Blues may not be a famous as many other bands, but their music was amazing decades ago and still sounds amazing today. Timeless music.
The expression on this beautiful young lady's face says it all. She not only gets it, she feels it on a deeper level. The finest piece the Moody Blues ever produced moved her in ways she never thought possible. Thank you for sharing your joy with us. Blessings Lyndon
This song was originally released by The Moody Blues in 1967 and is a masterpiece. It's just as moving now as it was then. The full album version is longer than this though. You even made me teary eyed.👍😄❤️💥
One of the most beautiful songs ever written along with Whiter Shade of Pale and While My Guitar Gently Weeps. The lead singer Justin Hayward also had a solo hit with a sing called Forever Autumn from a Rock Opera based on War of The Worlds you would love that song as well.
There are songs from this era , that can transport you to a time in your life , where you experienced great pleasure . Or where you experienced great pain. It's nice to listen with someone who is not from that era , and see their reaction , and wonder where they were transported .
I don’t know if I’ve seem someone react with more genuine emotion than you did with this beautiful song. It gave me chills and I was tearing up with you! So happy that you got to experience this.
And Miss.... Every person in that hall probably had tears on their cheeks as well, while they listened to this beautiful music! :'( -- Let's see if the rappers or the grunge musicians can do the same! :-O
Loved watching you listen and your amazing beautiful breathless reaction. I too feel this way every time I hear it no matter when I hear it. This song is timeless. May God bless you.
Had the pleasure of seeing The Moody Blues twice in my life and they were great live. What a show and what a band. Very good and emotional reaction to a great song.
Now, think about how amazing that orchestration at the end (and beginning) is. Now consider: it's exactly like that on the studio album. And this was their FIRST album (in their current incarnation). Not a bad start huh?
Remember that this was done live. The feel and tone of this song makes you shake, hold your breath and close your eyes so you can drink in every note. Good reaction.
I was lucky enough to see the Moody Blues live when they first sang "Knights in White Satin", I was a teenager, the song made me cry, and still does to this day. Amazing music and feelings in the world back then. x
Remember, they wrote all parts of this in 1967 when they were in their early 20s. As the finale to Days Of Future Past, Nights will indeed remain 'timeless'. Symphonic Rock was born with the MELOTRON.
My heart is so thrilled to see so many young people, discovering the music of our time ! ❤This beautiful song was on their album, Days of Future Passed. If you love this song, you will love the entire album it’s absolutely incredible. As someone else said here, there were many bands during the 60s and 70s that were equally as talented, and of course the orchestra just adds another dimension to the songs. This is the music we grew up with. I am a singer, songwriter, recording artist, and when I write my own music, I can’t help but to add many parts to my songs, because this is what I believed music should sound like. 😅
This song is so old. Back in 1977 our grade school would play this as the last song for the last dance in 7th and 8th grade. We have always loved this song. Look how much older he is and still can belt it out. THIS IS MUSIC. THIS IS WHAT WE GREW UP WITH. I LOVE THIS SONG.
Hi dear lady...I've been listening to this song when I was still in my early teenage time and today...I'm 65 years old and still loves this Moody Blues Night In White Satin...
This is absolutely is a master peice what more could one possibly ask for in a peice it is perfect I truly believe all the great composers in history would have been impressed
I came to listen to the music but stayed for your genuine and emotional reaction!!! Great job with this one, Ovuada!! The Moody Blues are amazing, and they had many wonderful songs and great hits! Before you are finished with them make sure you react to Question and Tuesday Afternoon. And if you enjoy some flute music in your rock and roll let me recommend "Can You See" by the Marshall Tucker Band and a live performance from the late 1970's of the band Jethro Tull performing "Locomotive Breath"!! Much more great music ahead, and as long as your reactions are this authentic count me as a huge fan!!
It isn't just the fantastic music from Moody Blues, its the memories associated with the music. Where were you, who were you with, what happened? I heard this when it first came out. It was amazing then, just as it is now. Yes, I have some very fond memories of where and when.
@@chrisfilip3427, that's something that I never knew. Both the speaker and the poem always wrapped up this song beautifully. Not many people remember that the poem was part of the song. It isn't finished until I hear the poem. It's just not the same.
I haven't gotten to the end yet -- BUT I had to say you NAILED it ..... this song is TIMELESS ....... heart wrenching FOREVER ...... & I'm pretty sure the flute player is an original member of the band ...
I was lucky enough to see them twice in concert.This song brought tears to people’s eyes,and when the orchestra happens at the end,the band just stared into oblivion with pleased looks on their faces.A true once-in-a- lifetime song.Great review by you…
Very haunting gut wrenching song for those that understand the lyrics he is expressing. "Nights in white satin never reaching the end" is reference to the satin sheets she bought him just before she broke it off. "Letters I have written never meaning to send" With 20 versions sitting in the trash he never mails his letter to try and gain her back. Why? "Just what the truth is I can't say anymore" Did she ever really love him? "Gazing at people some hand in hand" seeing others in love only brings back the pain. "Just what I'm going through you can't understand" Unless you have had a broken heart you can't understand. I cry every time I hear this song. I wonder where she is how she is doing. Damn this song all to hell its so beautifully written yet so haunting.
Thank you for the explanation as I am not very good at such Jeff. My understanding, from another source, is that she married him 3 years later. I cannot prove such, just what I read. Thanks again Jeff.
As Evonne said. "Welcome to the moody blues" And you are absolutely stunning beautiful. As you hear each piece of this song and your facial expressions reacting to it, I get goosebumps. ❤️❤️
I loved this song in 1970-71. My family knows at my funeral to play two songs. Nights In White Satin with the poetry at the end and Stairway to Heaven.
When I saw them at amphitheater near Kansas City in the 80s. A storm was swirling, lightning in the distance. Graeme Edge let the wind blow the flute while he played the solo. Magical! 💖 I used to fantasize plotting meeting Justin Hayward (lead singer). Still in love with him 💖
Glad you enjoyed listening to the Moody Blues. The first time I heard the album, in 1972 during Vietnam, at the finale, it was like I was entering, "into the Kingdom."
This is my mother’s fav song by The Moody Blues. We’ve seen them live twice together. Ray Thomas was the flautist, and he died in 2018, at the age of 76. He was one of the founding members of The Moody Blues in the mid-1960’s. Earlier this year I was present for the death of my 90yo mother-in-law, who has been my other mother. My own mother will be 87 next month. She will be one who will most likely be alone when her day comes, because they are such different individuals. I’ve long wanted to sing this for my mum, as my eulogy for her, at her burial, because it represents her in so many ways. Don’t know if I could make it through it, and now that you’ve heard it, you can probably understand why I probably couldn’t do it. I appreciate this this is the song that introduced you to such a great band. 🖤🤎🧡🤎🖤
I have to echo the sentiments of so many of the other commenters. The entire Days of Future Passed album is a masterpiece, and something to be taken in its entirety, on a rainy day, alone, with good headphones, and maybe a nice glass of wine or tea. A modern requiem.
Welcome to the Moody Blues. One of the greatest bands of all time.
Amen to that
Amen, Sister!
Fact! 💖
Yes sir they are
Agreed. 100% and I love to see new people discovering this great band.
When a piece of music can effect you so emotionally, That's good music.
That's the deepest definition of 'art.'
The whole album "Days of future passed" is a masterpiece. It took the idea of the concept album to a new level.
and originally it was released simply as a demo stereophonic album
And never surpassed
The whole album makes you realise how finite life is, oh bugger!
They have a DVD of a life perfomance with a full orchestra: "Days of Future Passed" They do the whole album back-to-back. And they were in their 70's when it was recorded. Truly cool. just watched it last night.
The Moody Blues is one of the extremely few who consider the London Symphony Orchestra to be a backup band!
RIP Ray Thomas (He plays the flute)
Mr, Ray is the one that recites the spoken words at the end of this Song, which I think adds a lot to it..
Ms. O, us need to find a version that has the spoken words and listen to it.. ♠W.G.
@@wgdavis5353 No, I'm afraid not. Mike Pinder was usually (but not always) the one who recited Graeme's poetry on their earlier albums.
Drummer Graeme Edge just passed away a few days ago.
Makes me cry every time. I remember when it first came out. This is music done with passion. This is how music should be.
Oh boy.... Had me in tears...... This is the music I grew up with. Whatever people say about the 60s and 70s the music was the best in history.
Justin wrote this song (lead singer) when he was 19 and in love. Later, he married the girl he wrote it for ❤❤ I was 17 when this was released and also in love, but never married him!!
It’s a haunting masterpiece.
After almost 50 years of listening to them, it can still move the emotions in me when they play something as timeless and ethereal as Nights in White Satin. I believe it was moving her, emotionally. Welcome to the club!
This is the kind of music i grew up with in the 60s. So good.
The song, including the extended orchestral parts was written by the band when they were in their early 20's. Genius.
Actually Justin Hayward was 19 when he wrote "Nights." Precociously talented angel, isn't he?
Oh the days when bands and singers had to have actual TALENT
Amazing now just what they were able to do. I am from that era and before. Great memories.
Amen brother
When I asked all of them would say thanks for the piano lessons mom
Talent that could stand up to time....
💜💜💜
Best concerts ever!!!!!!
63 now, and this is a soulful emotional sound that has never been repeated.
When you place a full orchestra behind a classic piece of music ...this is what you get ......just like the 2006 live performance of Whiter Shade of Pale ....
Yes , now you can understand why music in the sixties and early seventies was so fantastic. It was not just great to hear , it was also a education we all needed. If you just found the Moody Blues get ready for a great education in life. Beatles and Moody Blues were blowing peoples heads off with info. Glad you found them.
We need young people like you to keep exposing the classic rock bands to this generation
Beautiful reaction to a beautiful song by a beautiful lady. Thank you! ❤️❤️
Once you enter the Moody Blues kingdom, you'll never leave.
Dear woman. A beautiful woman enjoying a beautiful piece of music. Never be shy to show how something like this can touch you deep inside your soul. Welcome to the era of when musicians had pure talent. I loved watching the music take you to a place you have never been to before. This is music I grew up with and I'm very thankful.

So good to see young people discovering the timeless music that meant so much to us ‘older’ folks.
The Moody’s are most definitely one of a kind.
No other comes close to their musical artistry & uniqueness.
Love this song! I've listened to this for years, and it still brings tears to my eyes. Beautiful.
I've loved this song since I first heard it in 1967. Terrific song about his love for his lady.
It's always fun to watch kids enjoying good music from 50+ years ago!
Good Song. Good Reaction. Good Comments.
the magic of the Moodies
Beautiful song for a beautiful lady. Great music is to be appreciated.
Absolutely Wonderful Music, & I have seen them Live. with The Atlanta Symphony Orchestra… & YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL 🙏😘
To say this is Stunning would be an understatement!
The expression on this beautiful young lady's face says it all. She not only gets it, she feels it on a deeper level. The finest piece the Moody Blues ever produced moved her in ways she never thought possible. Thank you for sharing your joy with us.

Who knew there is music this beautiful out there. This song has made many tear up when they hear it for the first time.
This song was originally released by The Moody Blues in 1967 and is a masterpiece. It's just as moving now as it was then. The full album version is longer than this though. You even made me teary eyed.👍😄❤️💥
I would bet a whole lot of us over the years have been emotionally moved by this great song. And we still are.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written along with Whiter Shade of Pale and While My Guitar Gently Weeps. The lead singer Justin Hayward also had a solo hit with a sing called Forever Autumn from a Rock Opera based on War of The Worlds you would love that song as well.
An amazing album. Jeff Wayne's music is so beautifully eerie.
There are songs from this era , that can transport you to a time in your life , where you experienced great pleasure . Or where you experienced great pain. It's nice to listen with someone who is not from that era , and see their reaction , and wonder where they were transported .
Unfortunately and fortunately pain and pleasure run synonymous with each other it seems to always be bitter sweet
THE MOODY BLUES, "NIGHTS IN WHITE SATIN". LOVE WATCHING THE REACTIONS. TOO ME THAT IS TIMELESS ❗
I don’t know if I’ve seem someone react with more genuine emotion than you did with this beautiful song. It gave me chills and I was tearing up with you! So happy that you got to experience this.
Your reaction is the same as my reaction every time I hear it. It never gets old.
And Miss.... Every person in that hall probably had tears on their cheeks as well, while they listened to this beautiful music! :'( -- Let's see if the rappers or the grunge musicians can do the same! :-O
I am happy to see you are moved by this masterpiece. Your reaction is genuine.
Hey dear Lady this song brings tears to my eyes for and your love for this and your tears made me cry and smile peace and God Bless all way s Chad
Loved watching you listen and your amazing beautiful breathless reaction. I too feel this way every time I hear it no matter when I hear it. This song is timeless. May God bless you.
Had the pleasure of seeing The Moody Blues twice in my life and they were great live. What a show and what a band. Very good and emotional reaction to a great song.
The Moody Blues were in a league all their own. So much better in person!
I saw the Moody Blues live years ago it was one of my favorite concerts.
Listening to these guys for the first time in many years reminds me how much of a class act they were.
Now, think about how amazing that orchestration at the end (and beginning) is. Now consider: it's exactly like that on the studio album. And this was their FIRST album (in their current incarnation). Not a bad start huh?
Remember that this was done live. The feel and tone of this song makes you shake, hold your breath and close your eyes so you can drink in every note. Good reaction.
Your sincere reaction is authentic and priceless...I'm in
Welcome to our "secret" club, you are now a Moodie! Happy to have you!
you are listening to one of the greatest bands of all time!!-beautiful lady !!
This is Classic. released in 1967, I still love this so much. Listen to procal harum a whiter shade off pale, that is awesome to.
I was lucky enough to see the Moody Blues live when they first sang "Knights in White Satin", I was a teenager, the song made me cry, and still does to this day. Amazing music and feelings in the world back then. x
Me too. I loved the Moody Blues. My era!
Carol it's nights in white satin. Not knights. Are you brain dead?
Every. Time. I hear nights in white satin I have shivers
Many hear music, few listen. Congratulations.
Remember, they wrote all parts of this in 1967 when they were in their early 20s. As the finale to Days Of Future Past, Nights will indeed remain 'timeless'. Symphonic Rock was born with the MELOTRON.
Such a blessing to see your reaction. I came late to them in the early to mid 1980s. I heard this record and was amazed. Enjoy them.😊

Ive seen The Moody Blues twice and this song always makes me cry from Justin's voice. Incredible journey just like a Pink Floyd concerts.
One of the greatest love songs ever written...and as you say...it's timeless.
This song is to music, what the Mona Lisa is to art ! These were the people who were blessed with inspiration.

Yes…and not forgetting Legend Of A Mind and Are You Sitting Comfortably…by The Moody Blues with Ray’s haunting flute. R.I.P.
@@timothyparsons8327 And Melancholy man!
This is and has always been my favorite song since the first time I heard it in the mid 70's. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
So many great songs by this band! Heard them first in the mid seventies and love them still! Poet musicians!!
It isn't just the fantastic music from Moody Blues, its the memories associated with the music. Where were you, who were you with, what happened? I heard this when it first came out. It was amazing then, just as it is now. Yes, I have some very fond memories of where and when.
You definitely need to hear the long studio version it will blow your mind for sure such a great progressive rock band
Either that or an earlier live performance. They're definitely showing their age here.
Yes. The LP is much better, and it includes a dramatic poem at the end.
@@nancymontgomery8897 yes, Graeme Edge reciting Late Lament after Nights in White Satin on the studio recording is awesome.
@@chrisfilip3427, that's something that I never knew. Both the speaker and the poem always wrapped up this song beautifully. Not many people remember that the poem was part of the song. It isn't finished until I hear the poem. It's just not the same.
@@Johnrob1943 at their Red Rocks concert in 1992 the concert was started with Graeme Edge reciting it.
I saw the Moody's back in the day, 5 decades ago... Still pretty good!
Thanks for another "timeless" reaction.
I haven't gotten to the end yet -- BUT I had to say you NAILED it ..... this song is TIMELESS ....... heart wrenching FOREVER ...... & I'm pretty sure the flute player is an original member of the band ...
Thank you 😊
Technical genius in abundance, spirituality, romance, profound lyrics. All you can want from great music.
I had the privilege and good fortune to see them live in concert at least 10 times.This was from their debut album 1960s
You should give a listen to the whole album, 'Days of Future Passed', which this song is from. This is just one part of the story told on the album.
A British band it came out 1967 loved it then and still love .London UK
Bee Gees and Moody Blues. All perfection.
I always say the beatles, the Bee gees and The Moody blues are all perfection.
I was lucky enough to see them twice in concert.This song brought tears to people’s eyes,and when the orchestra happens at the end,the band just stared into oblivion with pleased looks on their faces.A true once-in-a- lifetime song.Great review by you…
I have seen many reactions to this performance.
Yours was so genuine and thank you. God bless.
I enjoyed watching you enjoy this piece of art as well. thanks for being so beautiful and having good taste.
Wonderful to see such an emotional response to such a great song.

Your reaction to this beauty displays your own spiritual essence and truly civilised quality.
This song, I feel, came from a stunning and epic faery tale I have dreamed before ❤ Moody Blues y'all are Diamonds in the Rough! Hats off to you.
isnt it just amazing how great music can make you feel ..i see you are enjoying this song .
As Evonne said. "Welcome to the moody blues" And you are absolutely stunning beautiful. As you hear each piece of this song and your facial expressions reacting to it, I get goosebumps. ❤️❤️

Glad you enjoyed listening to the Moody Blues. The first time I heard the album, in 1972 during Vietnam, at the finale, it was like I was entering, "into the Kingdom."
His voice is fabulous. The feeling I get when I’m hearing this song is indescribable.
Heart felt, honest and how beauty feels. ( And thank you for being the embodiment of beauty. )
I saw them in the 1990’s Live with an orchestra. This brings all those memories back.
Reaction perfect. Perfect lady, perfect song, perfect made me cry.
Not just a good band, one of the best of all time, so creative, especially first 7 albums, timeless.
TIMELESS!! Yes, exactly, good word choice, the music speaks for itself. The singer is Justin Hayward, love the vocals, the band is amazing
This is my mother’s fav song by The Moody Blues. We’ve seen them live twice together. Ray Thomas was the flautist, and he died in 2018, at the age of 76. He was one of the founding members of The Moody Blues in the mid-1960’s.
Earlier this year I was present for the death of my 90yo mother-in-law, who has been my other mother. My own mother will be 87 next month. She will be one who will most likely be alone when her day comes, because they are such different individuals. I’ve long wanted to sing this for my mum, as my eulogy for her, at her burial, because it represents her in so many ways. Don’t know if I could make it through it, and now that you’ve heard it, you can probably understand why I probably couldn’t do it.
I appreciate this this is the song that introduced you to such a great band.
🖤🤎🧡🤎🖤
One of the greatest songs ever created.
My knees go weak at this beautiful masterpiece .❤
Wonderful reaction to the most beautiful song out there......
When music was a beautiful piece of art to listen to. The Moody Blues certainly were a gift to their listeners.
I have to echo the sentiments of so many of the other commenters. The entire Days of Future Passed album is a masterpiece, and something to be taken in its entirety, on a rainy day, alone, with good headphones, and maybe a nice glass of wine or tea. A modern requiem.
