  • The original is back! This is my video for "English Sunset" by the Moody Blues, from the 1999 album "Strange Times." This video uses concert photos taken by members of the Moody Talk and Traveling Eternity Road message boards.

    Can someone...anyone...tell me why this man is one of the sexiest men on earth? Besides his gorgeous music and voice, his gentle personality caught me early in life. He's in his 70's and I STILL sigh to just look at him.

    I love this song. Strange Times is a great album, and it was good to hear them playing what THEY wanted to for a change in so many years of letting record labels push them around. You have also created a really great video to go with it.

    • @CandleLight1974

    I want to ride the range
    Across those skies of black
    I want to see for myself
    And see me coming back
    And when I’ve gone the distance
    I’ll be making tracks
    For an English sunset
    We’re on a runaway train
    Rolling down the track
    And where it’s taking us to
    Who knows where it’s at?
    But if we hold together
    We can make it back
    For an English sunset
    We want an English sunset
    I feel the rhythm of the earth
    In my soul tonight
    May it never fade away
    And I’ve decided I can live with humility
    And the sad decay
    ‘Cause that’s the English way
    We keep the faith alive
    In everything we do
    And at the end of the road
    You still keep coming through
    And though it’s sad and sorry
    What else can we do?
    It’s an English sunset
    An English sunset
    I feel the rhythm of the earth
    In my soul tonight
    May it never fade away
    And I’ve decided they can wait
    For the requiem
    We take it day by day
    ‘Cause that’s the English way
    I saw the English sunset

    These guys were better than the Beatles and more creative once Justin Hayward arrived and got together with Ray Thomas and Mike Pinder and Graham Edge of the original Moodys and then John Lodge who joined soon after. This transformed the Moodys ;in my opinion as the greatest transformative group in the modern Rock history..
