Yes, those of us who grew up in the 60s and the 70s were literally bathed in amazing music.
Yeah, if one looks at a Top 40 list from 60's and 70's , it is stunning to see the diverse styles , legendary artists and original creativity that was evolving thru that time . It's a pleasure to find these reactions by those just discovering that era .....
Im still listening to the same stuff. They just dont put out true music any more.
One of the blessings of the internet as flawed as it may be, that even all these years later I can listen to and stumble across masterpieces like this having been born in the 90's. I wish I could travel back in time to experience most of the greatest bands ever, live. What a time that must have been. Music will never be on that level again.
@@stankworm9982 I was born in 56, and by my 12th birthday, the music was amazing, and i miss that now. Good movies, fast cars, and a list of other things including simple things. Now it seems there are too many choices and people have to buy things when new, and get tossed in a month. My first car was a 64 GTO, and have been into cars ever sense.
We didn't really know just how great of music we had growing up till all this musical garbage started coming out.
Am so proud that my generation produced such wonderful, timeless music.
Yes Betsy, but what's happened since ?
90s produced some very influential music.
It's just too bad she won't hear the poem at the end.
It was my youth during the 60s,70s and I tell y'all I feel BLESSED to have been thru those days. Some of the best music ever made was made back then. I'll never ever let go of my love for all of it. Amen don't ya know ?
Disco? 🤣
I’m nearly 70, I grew up with this music, I still love it ❤
Me too!
Like others here I’m proud to have been listening to the best music ever in the late fifties, sixties, seventies and into the eighties, I’m 72
My personal fave group!
I am 76 and so glad we can watch the younger gen appreciate our music.
A most beautiful, other worldly song. Listen to it over and over. They are a tremendous group! Thanks
Songwriters, singers who played actual instruments and no auto-tune. The very, very best.
Amen
pretty bad actually, they should use some autotune and a drum machine to replace their percussionist. also adding in a rapping section. if you don't like it you're old fashioned and borign sorry
THOSE WERE THE BEST DAYS OF MY LIFE❤😊
@@smarroyyou 🤡
There is an entire Prog Rock band built around the flute: Jethro Tull.
😁✌️
Not exactly "built around", but it's a key part of their sound. "Locomotive Breath", "My God", "Bourree", "Weathercock", so many more...
Don't forget Aryeon
@THE ACOUSTIC CAGE Jethro Tull?
@@fordp69 Just try listening.
You missed the poem “Late Lament” that accompanies “Nights in white satin” Here it is for those of you who know it. I have recited this to all my children since they were babies. They all know it by heart. My 9 year old Autistic son who doctors said would never speak can recite Late Lament with passion without missing a word.
“Late Lament”
Breathe deep the gathering gloom
Watch lights fade from every room
Bed sitter people look back and lament
Another days useless energy spent
Impassioned lovers wrestle as one
Lonely man cries for love and has none
New mother picks up and suckles her son
Senior citizens wish they were young
Cold hearted orb that rules the night
Removes the colors from our sight
Red is gray and yellow white
But we decide which is right
And which is an illusion
I know I was waiting for it at the end and when this performance stop without it I was a little disappointed
Well done!! Graham does it so well, even as an older man!!!
@@davidosborn9469 I guess it could have been read by someone else, but the original poem on 'Days of future passed' was read beautifully by keyboard player Mike Pinder, who's rich voice gave Graham Edge's poem an extra edge (Sorry couldn't resist). Mike left the band in 1978 and has lived in The States ever since.
@@davidosborn9469 it was actually in the beginning of the performance but was cut out of this particular video
@@RADAR1017 yeah it's been so long since I heard it I forgot about that but it seems like something that shouldn't be left out of any version
"Days of Future Passed" - get the whole album, put it on its own playlist and listen to it some quiet evening. Worth it.
It was the #1 peaceful acid trip album when I was in college back then.
One of their Greatest Albums
I have ( literally ! ) every album I could get my hands on ! And every now and then...I dig them out and play them...one after the other 🙂
Music from the 60’s & 70’s were poems, words with message and the performers were just beyond fantastic
Who can forget the classics like, “Sky rockets in flight, afternoon delight,” or “Midnight at the oasis,
Send your camel to bed,” or my favorite, “Muskrat Love.”
@@ap8409 Profound 😂
Artist.
This is what I call a masterpiece !!!!!Timeless.!!!!
Absolutely !!!
I first heard this and bought the album when I was a young lad in the early 70s and thought it was such a beautiful song. Amazing how 50 years have gone by and not many songs are as beautiful as this one. Goosebumps and tears
I echo your comment! Pete in UK
I am a man 73 years old when I listen to all the old music it brings tears to my eyes I have a warm spot in my heart we were so lucky
That mystical flute adds so much. Enjoyed this song back in 70s. Still love it! My generation was so blessed with the performers and songs written and performed back then.
Moody Blues were way ahead of their time with beautiful arrangements
Still gives me goose bumps hauntingly beautiful
Just happened to me and I have heard it many many times.
Same here, many times over during the song.
Listen to the extended version. Listen to the 1st 48 SECONDS CAREFULLY. The way Justin Hayden sings "Night's in white satin, never reaching the end. Letters I've written (here he does a nn-nn-nn that is so incredibly amazing! One of the most influential, intelligently, masterfully composed, lyrically written, progressive & beautifully sung pieces of music I've ever EVER heard. I heard it thousands of xs STILL get goosebumps every time I hear it
Do you mean an extended studio version or live version? I've just discovered this song and I'm blown away, I want to hear more!
"House of four doors" another masterpease
The whole album is a masterpiece of music!
Your reaction to this song makes those of us who grew up with it realize what an important time in music it actually was. Have always loved the moody blues music. Quite different from most of the R&R being put out during that time.
Steve Smith - Exactly. They were called progressive rock.
Jethro Tull
Saw them live! Better than you can imagine.
To my mind it's really in a class of its own, the moody blues class, especially 'the days of future past' album!
Timeless and part of me feels sad that I'm not getting any younger ...
Heart strings pulled listening to the words ❤
Studio version is a must listen.
Yup.
Yes I find I find it more haunting.
Agreed
I’m glad she picked the live version. His passion really shows. I just wish he’d done the big finish in this performance.
They had just released this song, people were doing their best to stay out of the military, 4 of my buds were with me when I played it on the juke box. I had joined the US Marine Corps that very day. I made the announcement to my friends. I think everyone was a little shocked. For 28 yrs I had the honor of wearing those dress blues. To our youth and to all who didn’t make it home
Great review. One should also notice how much more complicated and diverse this masterpiece is compared to anything one hears on the airways in the last 25 years. They were all true musicians that were so incredibly talented.
Yes, there is an other worldly quality to this song and she got it completely - see what fantastic music we had back then?
The many genres of music that we all enjoyed and accepted was unbelievable. Hendrix,,,Doors, Beatles still going and Paul, John on their own. Moody Blues, Pink Floyd. We all listened to it. In today's world, African Americans often just go with the usual hip hop , and listen to James Brown and other great 'oldies' too. But it's very believable to see the number of white rock artists from the 60's that today's youth have never heard of or listened to. And an ALBUM, in vinyl, is the way to hear it. Those songs were put in a certain order to create the artistry that the musicians wanted you to hear, in that order.
I absolutely love her reaction! She really feels the song.
Seen this Lady now on 1 other song ( The Weight - Band / Staples ). I think I fell in love.
I'm an old fat white guy who while not racially fixated never found Ladies of color my thing other then a very very few.
She stole my heart instantly. I'm dumbfounded but happy to have a chance to experience a feeling I didn't expect to ever reoccur in my life.
She fits this song so well.
Wanna see her do something like ELP Lucky man or maybe Savage Garden Truly, Madly, Deeply. - and a 100 other favorites. My sincere apologize Debbie - I crashed in but needed to comment and the powers that be delete or ban anything I post independently. Plus I loved your comment.
Ahhh- It's so magical to feel that tug on your heart without lust being involved -- purity in that which elevates the soul.
There seems to be a lot of "retro listening" now, ms Anderson. Is it because the "modern" stuff is crap ? I genuinely do'nt know because i do'nt listen to any media nowadays; when i can avoid it, that is.
@@WNYXeb777 yes indeed! It is her eyes and smile. Easy to love her.
The Moody Blues were pioneers of blending traditional rock music with orchestral backing and were way ahead of their time. This was reflected in the fact that Nights in White Satin was not a hit in either the UK or US when first released in 1967. It took 5 years and it's re-release before the the song's brilliance was truly appreciated.
When talent spoke for itself. No gimmicks. No tweaking. No props. Just talent.
One of the most beautiful songs of our time, simply lovely 🥰
Not matter what someone’s musical taste is, The Moody Blues album “Days of Future Past” has a place in your music collection.
Great album!
Wore out my 8track
Days of Future PASSED”!
These guys were one of the originators of orchestral rock. The album Days of Future Past (which this is off of) is excellent and I encourage you to give it a listen. Good one Rogue.
How do we explain how and why this type of rock captivated even the most hard core rockers? To this day, I can't and yet Moody Blues were one of the most iconic rock bands of the era and this song an anthem that with the orchestration, made it the perfect song to get stoned to. And back then, that wasn't a bad thing, it was completely natural. Long live Moody Blues.
@@cristyrawks6325 The Moody Blues concert I went to in 2000 was like a religious revival. All generations from the hippies who were there first time around to their kids and grandkids, all of whom "got it". I guess it appeals to those who want to see beyond what's in front of them but are turned off by religion? That and it _does_ sound great!
@@immortalsofar5314 Some classic rock bands still get lots of respect from all age groups.
Don't forget Deep Purple and the Royal Philharmonic. Two of the originators of psychedelic rock.
I never knew that. They must of inspired what they now call symphony rock, that is really popular in Europe. Bands like Within Temptation & Nightwish just to name a couple.
"Justin must be good." Oh yes! They all are, but his voice has that quality that is unmistakeable and makes the hairs stand up on the back of your neck. This is one of the greatest songs of all time. I grew up with it, bought it when it first came out, and have listened to it thousands of times over the years and it still gives me goosebumps.
welcome to the moody blues. this band changed my whole ideas about what music could be as a young teenager in the late sixties.they still blow me away all these years later .wow..
I love this rendition too, but you must listen to the Original Extended Version with the Closing Poem, as mentioned already in the posts, then when the Song links to it's heightened crescendo it is pure magic. kudos, you will never go wrong with Classic late 60s and 70s Rock!
The original with the poem for sure. A MUST LISTEN. I Promise you you'll love it.🙏💯❣️🌹🙏
Or just buy the album. One of the few albums you can enjoy alll the way through.
@@victorcarrasco3040 I was actually looking forward to seeing the Closing Poem done live! Growing up in Memphis, Rock103 would always include it - gave the DJ a longer break.
😎 💨 🤷♂️
The closing does complete the song but unfortunately radio stations cut it due to time constraints.
Rogue, whatcha know about Jethro Tull? Hands down the best flute in rock history!
Locomotive Breath by Jethro Tull is a must
Ian Anderson is the flute BOSS.
Agreed!!
Can't ya see is pretty dope too.
Also "Third Hoorah"
Another tear-jerker from my High-School days. (I was in High School when I discovered it). One day, when my girlfriend and I were nearing the end of our relationship, I waited in the car while she ran into a building to take care of something. This song came on the radio and I was a bawling mess. Amazing band, legendary song.
I'd guess that there are millions of men who break into tears, 6 decades later ,as they hear that song and think of a lost love that got away back in their teens.
One of my all time favourites. The wonderful voice of Justin Hayward. This and Procol Harum's A Whiter Shade of Pale are so moving.
"Cold hearted orb that rules the night... removes the colors from our sight... red is grey and yellow is white.... but we decide which is right, and which is an illusion"... these words have been embedded in my memory since I heard this song way back in the 70's... a timeless classic for sure
[Part I: "The Day Begins" (0:00 - 4:07)]
[Instrumental - Orchestra]
[Part II: "Morning Glory" (4:08 - 5:49)]
[Spoken Word: Mike Pinder]
Cold hearted orb that rules the night
Removes the colours from our sight
Red is grey and yellow - white
But we decide which is right
And which is an illusion
Pinprick holes in a colourless sky,
Let insipid figures of light pass by
The mighty light of ten thousand suns
Challenges infinity and is soon gone
Night time, to some a brief interlude
To others the fear of solitude
Brave Helios wake up your steeds
Bring the warmth the countryside needs
I always wondered who actually spoke those words on the original album. In fact, it was Mike Pinder, the keyboard player. R.I.P.
@@ericredlefsen5554 Mike Pinder is still alive.
@@pauldevito7476 Correct! I just fired my research assistant.
You forgot GooooOOOOONNNg....
Jethro Tull mastered adding the flute as a major rock 'n roll instrument--soft and hard played by Ian Anderson, maybe one of the best flute players in the history of all music. Worth a listen always.
Anderson was a huge fan of Ray Thomas (Moodies flute player).
Guitarist Andrew Latimer, founder member of Guildford band, Camel, also played flute on many of the band's recordings.
This stayed so true to the studio version. Awesome.
This used to be one my favorite bands back in the day. No auto tune just sheer talent.
Just as with the live performance of " A Whiter Shade of Pale " backing a classic song with full orchestration .....is MAGIC ...
Both from 1967 , it was a very good year. Oh and as others have mentioned , you want flute then you want Jethro Tull.
Except that this song has coherent lyrics.
@@SRG1966 so does whiter shade of pale.
@@volo1826 A.W.S.O.P was one of John Lennons' favourite songs which should tell you all you need to know about that track.
@@tombradley4844 and it's considered one of the greatest songs of the 20th century. From what I heard, Lennon was pissed with jealousy that he didn't make the song haha.
The flute in rock songs? Jethro Tull.
The chord progressions are so simple and easy…. Yet there is so much in the progression.. it’s elegant, sophisticated, orchestral, celestial, angelic, romantic, epic…
For those of us here who are old enough to remember and want to hear the "Late Lament"...
Breathe deep the gathering gloom
Watch lights fade from every room
Bedsitter people look back and lament
Another day's useless energy is spent
Impassioned lovers wrestle as one;
Lonely man cries for love and has none
New mother picks up and suckles her son
Senior citizens wish they were young
Cold-hearted orb that rules the night
Removes the colours from our sight
Red is grey is yellow white
But we decide which is right
And which is an illusion
I remember it!
Saw the Moody Blues 4 times in concert. Never failed to amaze me, Justin Hayward voice unbelievable still today
Gosh, I only got to see them 3 times. Lucky you! They're spellbinding live.😊
Stunning! At Red Rock, CO I don't care if they sing ANY other song! THAT is how masterful that piece is
Anyone notice how Justin Hayward holds the "n-n-n" in the 1st "... letters I've written'n-n-n' , never meaning to send.." sexy!
"A [beautiful] woman sensitive to music is an attractive companion."
-Anaïs Nin
If you like The Moody Blues and ELP, you will 💜🎵LOVE🎶 Renaissance [the 70's Prog band a.k.a. "Renaissance Touring"]❣
She would do, fake Sfas, she swung that way.
Totally agree, most magnificent, ethereal(not a word I usually use), and deep. Thank you for your review.
I saw them live in 1973 and they are the only band I heard that sounded as perfect live as they did on their albums.
Her reactions brought tears to my eyes- wonderful music transcends all cultures and tastes. Some music is just great.
yeah, I kind of like these first time listening/watching reaction videos. Its a mix of remembering hearing some song for the first time myself and an archeologist digging out some treasures.❤🖖🏽🍀
Need to listen to the original version just as good as this one, but with the extended part of a poem at the end, try listen to it, if just for your ears!
I saw The Moody Blues live twice in Scotland and wow...I have no words. I was madly in love with Justin Heyward and met him after one of the shows. Nights In White Satin stands alone in its majesty. I was feeling every emotion watching this with you.
The flute soloist , Ray Thomas and the drummer Graeme Edge have both sadly passed away . Great musicians who contributed much to all The Moody Blues albums .
This song was and still is incredible a pure masterpiece
This has been one of my most favourite bands for more than 40 years. It makes me sad that I’ve never seen them in concert.
I feel the same way !!!
Justin Hayward wrote this song when he was only 19 years old. His girlfriend had just given him some white satin sheets and he wrote a love song from that inspiration. You may have already done so but another awesome song of theirs is "Tuesday Afternoon" which has a similar feel and orchestration.
Rogue, listen to the version from their album, "Days of Future Passed". It's a bit longer with a gorgeous poem spoken at the end, before resounding finally with a gong.
Yes! A must!
If you have never listened to the whole album Days Of Future Passed, please do, from beginning to end. I regard it as a major milestone in the history of rock, and especially The Moody Blues progression in the forthcoming years from 1967 to 1973.If you feel the need to explore them further, the next six albums should be heard at leisure. They had a break for about five years, then reconvened to produce Octave in 1978, during which time Mike Pinder decided to quit The Moodies…and the story carries on, even to this day…enjoy!
Absolutely and also Too Our Children's Children's Children album
The best way to listen to this is to play the whole album from start to finish. It tells a story.
They’ve been my favorite all time band since the late 60’s. Nights in White Satin just send you on a trip. They are so mellow ,their music fills all the spaces. Glad you got to hear them in this day and age of rap,crap
Since there was the question how many Rock Bands use the flute...hard to say, but let's start to mention "Jethro Tull" as the most memorable one.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written and the anguished "I love you" sounds so sincere....melts my heart
The flute is the highlight of EVERY Jethro Tull song. If you haven't heard them yet, you really must. You will love them. But first, more Moody Blues. A really good next choice would be Procession/Story in Your Eyes. Procession is sort of a condensed history of music. Story in Your Eyes grows out of it and is an excellent flat-out rock song. They did so many gorgeous songs. Others will make recommendations, and every one of them will be a great one. But please start with mine. LOL
im a day too late with Jethro Tull
Boring band…. Seen them got bored in 2 minutes
@@bobhook336 Then you haven't heard much Tull. Like them or not, they have quite a discography with a great deal of wonderful music. Even when I don't like a particular piece of music I can tell when it is or isn't actually good technically, musically, lyrically, etc. Apparently you cannot.
I grew up in the 60s and 70s ( a young teenager). Back when music was magical . I love " nights in white satin". So slow and moving with passion.
Goodness I Love this song and his voice, heavens!
Such an innovative and melodic song. R.I.P. Ray Thomas, that brilliant flautist and founding member.
"How many Rock songs highlight the flute?" Just about every Jethro Tull song!
But beautifully only the moody blues.
@@bobhook336 Marshall Tucker ;)
Yes, today we have the best technology, but the best music of all time is from the 60s and 70s.
My favorite song ever. This performance is just insane.
I’m 53..I grew up to this stuff and there’s nothing like this band and never will be again. Don’t know how old you are but my youngest daughter is 27 and she’s a musician out in California and you remind me of her..you both love good music no matter how old it is or what genre..it’s a joy to know great music will live on in younger generations. Keep it up! ❤️
Someone probably already mentioned this, but their record company, Decca Records, wanted to make an album to showcase the new "stereo" technology by having an orchestra on one side and a rock band on the other. They ended up combining the two to make one of my favorite albums of all time.
Justin wrote this classic when he was 19 years old.... Think about that line, "Some try to tell me thoughts they cannot defend. Yet you will be what you want to be in the END!!!! A magical song!!! The Moody Blues are one of my all time favorites! With a full orchestra backing them, I must advise you to prepare yourself. The final section is over whelming.... So GOOD!!!!!!
And, he still sounds the same! I'm 60+ & THAT amazes me. ♥️
"Breathe deep, the gathering gloom......"
Best part was missing
include "Go Now", "Nights in White Satin", "Tuesday Afternoon", "Question", "Gemini Dream", "The Voice" and "Your Wildest Dreams". The band has sold 70 million albums worldwide This is a masterpiece of music!!!!
Amazing song with amazing vocals. Brings back memories of my high school days. I could listen to this song multiple times and not get tired of hearing it. Beautiful !!!
I'm 65 have heard this amazing song my whole life. Outstanding
I have to suggest the long album version of this song. Along with “Afternoon” from the same album. It’s two songs combined and an eargasm of a song.
Good anslogy! 🙏🇨🇦
Long Distance Voyager - 1981. Still going strong after the 60s. Perhaps one of their best albums. Their arrangements are stellar.
Moody Blues Masterpiece !!
We come from a time when the majority of bands had their own, unique sound, instantly identifiable. We were lucky.
For sure one of the greatest lovesongs ever written and performed.
Are you referring to Nights in White Satin? If so, I agree.
Justin Haywood wrote this about a lost girlfriend when he was in his teens. They met again years later and are still married! For my wife and I this is was a hit when we first met and is still 'our song'.
vis-a-vis the Flute, Jethro Tull. You'll get a million requests.
When after 50 years you can stand up in front of a live audience and nail the song perfectly. It's more than mere talent, it's sonic sequentialism. I saw Moody Blues live in the 1970s. This version sounded just as spot on. Amazing.
Background vocals. The drops and that romantic voice. One of the greatest love songs ever made
I was FORTUNATE to see them in concert in Charlotte NC TWICE, IT TAKES ME BACK. It actually brings a TEAR TO MY EYE hearing it again with the FULL ORCHESTRA like what you were listening to but BETTER because I was THERE.😁🤗👍
Most "rock history" cites the Beatles "Sgt Pepper" or the Who's "Tommy" as the first "concept albums", but I always considered the Moody Blues "Days of Future Passed" to be the first (early 1967). Perfect use of orchestra with a rock band on that entire album...innovative & still unique 54 years later. OMG, I am old...LOL.
Yes! And Jimmie Spheeris' "Isle of View" album.
So am I but this music, thankfully, never gets old. Beatles, Stones, Queen et al, will live forever, as long as MUSIC is played.
Ogdens Nut Gone Flake by the Small Faces May 1968 must be in the mix
One could argue Gershwin's 'Porgy and Bess', though most early (and later) recorded versions are effectively selections from it. Originally described as a 'folk opera', I guess it then opens the doors to other operas, although 'Tommy' was billed as a rock opera.
@@chrisgraham5186 True that Porgy & Bess was decades earlier... but obviously I was referring to the term "concept album" in rock music. If you count all music, basically every broadway show musical or movie musical was by definition an "opera".
Ray Thomas on flute was self taught! That man is a legend. He could play everything.
Still raises goose bumps, same as it did the first time I heard it as a teenager.
Your reaction is so genuine it almost brings me to tears, sweetheart you would have fit in well back in the day. As for the flute look for a band called Jethro Tull.
The king of flute in rock music is Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull.
The Moody Blues were one of my favorite bands growing up, as it was rock but combined orchestral music as well. It was ethereal and they have ballads and up tempo songs. I loved Justin Hayward, named my son after him, way before a justin bieber existed. lol. Their writing of music and lyrics are amazing. Some of their albums are concept albums meant to be played one song after the next, for flow and stories. They could make make grown men teary eyed. I had the good fortune to see them every time they were in Canada, so from when I was a young teen through to 1993.
I would selfishly love to see them again, 50 years later.
I could safely take both my sons to their concert at the lake outdoor concert at ages 9 and 2 months of age. The band got me through very tough times in my life as well, to meditate too, and if I needed a cry, to let it out. They had a nice way of hitting you at an emotional level. RIP Ray Thomas ( flute)
They are all very gifted, devoted musicians who wrote the best lyrics.
I love the Moody Blues and I love your reaction to them. :)
1967. Rock groups like these guys and the Beatles were beginning to find new sounds using classical instruments like strings and flute. Rock overnight became a world movement. The PATHOS of the original song is devastatingly beautiful. This may not sound like much but for those days, this was a whole new beginning to music and culture.
Such a haunting and beautiful melody.
I'm not sure how old you are but for you to react the way you do not only do you have a heart for music but it is truly part of your spirit. An awesome gift. Thank you
I grew up listening to these beautiful masterpieces, the 60s and 70s were incredible and I'm so glad to see and hear you play and enjoy this fine music.thankyou from the bottom of my heart. cliff
His voice is just as good now as it was back then and he's in his 70s now. Justin (the lead singer) wrote Nights in White Satin when he was 19 years old after a breakup with a girlfriend who had given him a set of white satin bed sheets. The song was released in 1967. The band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2018.
Justin is 75 years young and still killing it. Sadly Ray Thomas (flute player) passed away a few years ago. But Justin is now playing with another great flute player named Karmen Gould. Justin has released numerous videos on TH-cam as a Tuesday Afternoon series. Here is an example of one of his greatest hits. "Forever Autumn" m.th-cam.com/video/eX9X4ka29B8/w-d-xo.html
I actually saw him in Australia as part of the Jeff Wayne War of the World's tour, where he absolutely crushed that song. The clarity and timbre of his voice is fantastic. My parents named me after him.
The 1967 original was very beautiful too. 😊😊
My favorite version of this song even though the were getting older. when i was 18, my earlier favorite of theirs was Tuesday Afternoon, which me and my coworker listened to on transistor radio at work in warehouse on Tuesdays when radio in Worcester,Mass played every Tuesday afternoon. Great Band!!! Wanna go back in time!!!
This song is as beautiful as the lovely young lady listening to it. Subscribed!
This lady is a "true" music lover ❤️❤️❤️, when you can feel and absorb it... Shes moved by this song, as I have been for fifty years... ❤
every time he's about to say "ooooohiloooveyoouu" sends chill down my spine, EVERY. TIME.
Justin Hayward (main vocalist) wrote this song when he was just 19 years old and John Lodge (falsetto) bass guitarist on the right still tour. Ray the flutist has passed on. And the drummer, Graeme has passed now too. But Justin & John mainly tour solo now. Most places they toured, they had an orchestra perform with them, but not anymore. I saw them in many, many concerts. One of my favorite groups of all time. I sure miss the Moodies. RIP Ray and Graeme. You are playing with the angels now. xx
Cool, thanks for sharing and stay tight.
This was such a great track to smooch to with the pretty girls at any dance, a real ice breaker.
I love your reactions, you are so natural and your love of the hidden gems of background instrumentals is so much like myself, perfect
