Listen, hear the sound
The child awakes
Wonder all around
The child awakes
Now in his life
He never must be lost
No thoughts must deceive him
In life he must trust
With the eyes of a child
You must come out and see
That your world's spinning 'round
And through life you will be
A small part of a hope
Of a love that exists
In the eyes of a child
You will see
Earth falls far away
New life awaits
Time it has no day
New life awaits
Here is your dream
And now how does it feel?
No words will go with you
And now what is real?
With the eyes of a child
You must come out and see
That your world's spinning 'round
And through life you will be
A small part of a hope
Of a love that exists
In the eyes of a child
You will see - เพลง
If you don't understand the Moodies, then you don't understand life itself. Might as well be a lifeless stone.
If the world listened to the moody blues it would be a better place
Oh! Yes!
One of the finest bands of all time!
No not true. some of the best
Yes.. precisley so ❤
THE MOODIES NEVER GREW UP......WE STILL REMAIN CHILDREN.......🙏😇💞🌹🌈
As a child we were born, as a child we will go
Absolutely beautiful song sung by the greatest band ever!
Had the privilege of meeting Ray Thomas in Phoenix back in 2004, at of all places, an IHOP at 3 in the morning. We talked music and memories, he was a very down to earth and wonderful guy. RIP Ray
all the moodies were all "down to earth" guys...but their lyrics and insights were out of this world
When all people are kind, the world will be kind.
IT STARTS WITH US MY DARLING...........LOVE YOU......👽👼💗🙏🌎⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This entire album was their best in my opinion, this is one of many transcendentally beautiful masterpieces.
I saw the Moodies once in Philly and before the show Ray fell through a stage opening and broke his flute so an announcement came on the PA asking if anyone had brought one to the show. And luck would have that someone in attendance had so Ray played it and even brought the young lady out to thank her. It was a moment I’ll never forget and reminds me how much I love this band and their incredible music which will never be imitated.
There's no one like the Moody Blues..it gives you a feeling of peace & contentment.
The mix of the harp and french horn to the vocals at the beginning of this masterpiece is pure musical magic. When I hear it, it just takes me to a place where I really need to be no matter where.
Yes...when I listening to this masterpiece... it takes me to a place I long for...to the place I need to be ❤
It was Mike Pinder on 7 foot harp ! And Ray Thomas on french horn ,the two creators of thé Moody Blues ...
"To Our Children's Children's Children" is officially my favourite Moody Blues album
Ditto that…
Some fifty years ago ,when my now late brother went off to college, he left To Our Children's Children's Children for his little brother.
This song gives me goosebumps! I was fortunate enough to get to see them in concert
Here the Moodies show us their view of our world through the eyes of a young child..".Eyes of a child" reflect those qualities that most of us are born with and those which we can have again at any age: innocence, spontaneity, non-judgement, trust, REALNESS and LOVE ! What a beautiful song this is, and 1 of many.... what a creative period in music this was (late 60's/early 70's) I know because I was THERE ! LOVE and LIGHT to all AWAKE beings...
if all world leaders saw the world through the eyes of a child just think how beautiful and innocent the world would be.
So true
Byron Crutcher children are evil, how many are bullied, extorted and harassed by others? I know i was before i git big enough to fight back.
We are the world leaders it is time we lead
Remember...remember, there was a time when they saw through the eyes of a child...as has each of us. We have gone blind due to our world, contaminated by what we have seen and done. What we have seen others do. We cannot go back. But if we can show the children, perhaps they can do better. Yes I am an idealist , but also a realist, I know what I would like to see...and I know just unlikely it is to happen. Perhaps the young will see what is coming...or perhaps not.
You haven't met my granddaughter.😮
A never ending reminder that there lies within every single one of us an incredible being of love and light. I was just coming of age in 1970 when I bought this album, the first of many I would have from the most wonderful band of musicians I’ve ever heard. These songs are so much more than just songs - they’re lessons and insights into our higher nature. Hopefully we’ll continue to reach out and discover more of it.
Jeff unless you’re a libaterd 😂😂😂 they hate life
This song just popped out of my memory bank tonight and I found this…Ah yes, it is just like that. In 1969 I was 18. Now I am 64. I loved this song then, and I love it now. I sent a link to a dear friend who is much beloved by her grandchildren... because she has never forgotten how to see with the eyes of a child.

I was 16 in 1953 and loved everything they had done since their first big hit, Go Now. We are all a small part of a love and a hope so clearly seen in the eyes of a child. We only have to reach for the stars, but something always seems to get in our way. We are our own worst enemy.

+steve Sun I have a lot of hope for the kids coming up. I've met quite a few young people just getting out of college who are idealistic but more practical than we were. Socially conscious, responsible, adventurous. And fun.
+Elizabeth Capwell Birds seem to like it also. :) ... they like various tones according to their type of lifestyle... amazing.
I am a grandmother (64 also) and my granddaughter has been listening to this song and most of the Moodies songs since she was a baby. She is almost three now. She loves them. Their concerts are her favorites. It has been the best introduction to music ever for a child. I love dancing to their songs with her. Thank you Moodies!
Sad....those times are gone....the music lives on!!!!✌✌✌✌✌
Todays music not only doesn't compare and match up .... IT CAN'T COMPARE AND MATCH THE MUSIC OF THE MOODY BLUES!
first off you have to actually pick up an instrument and learn to play it (then master it) .... Then you have to have the talent & brains to write something meaningful and with a message.
The MOODY BLUES will live forever through their music
Thank you Michael Dallas Barnhill for turning me on to so many things, but especially this band and their music .... That is a debt I couldn't repay in ten thousand thousand years
As I look into the beautiful eyes of my first grandchild, this piece of music comes to mind.... he's a wonderful happy strong wee boy, so glad to be even a minor part of his life...and it's hard to keep emotions in check, when he looks up at me and smiles..😀
One of John Lodge's most beautiful songs
This music nourishes and encourages the child that lives inside each one of us.
the inner child...let him out...
Moody Blues always made me unstressed and comfortable. What a group.
I remember in 1970 hearing the song Nights in White Satin on the radio. I went to a local department store to see if I could find it on an album. I first bought The Children's Children album and it wasn't on it, but I then felt in love with their music. I then bought Threshold of a Dream album and Search of the Lost Chord album. Wow, I found a treasure. At some point I finally found the album Days of Future Past, which had Nights in White Satin on it. I am forever thankful for their music. Thank you colordream for keeping their music alive. If I had a favorite album it might be Children's Children, although they made so much beautiful music. Music that is timeless.
Dennis G samething happens to me..im in love with MB Music since 1987
@@muertefin So many people saying how much they love the Moodies and their albums but they can;t get one particular title right.
Days Of Future PASSED not PAST.
Clive Bindley actually I do have some albums and days of future passed is one of them
I bought question of balance first. Then children's next. I wore those lps out.
7 masterpieces in a row
Play this for your child and they will love it .
Saw them at the Fimore East when I was 14 and already a fan, am now going to be 64 and still am. Rock and Roll Hall of Fame!
I am now 56...and agree with every sentiment......it means something...for the last 40years
the moodys take you to a place where you can forget, the crap of this life calms a troubled mind
this is why i listen to them so much, because their music takes me where the music takes me, and i am in heaven
this song gives me hope and makes me feel unimaginably good. as does most of the moody blues i'm finding. just discovered them.
Welcome, enjoy!
One of the best albums from the psychydelic era! Heavy message about mankind and it's future and past....
I believe this is one of the more underrated songs from the Moody Blues - it's a charmer.
Oh! 1970s and baby boomers. What a lucky generation you were.
Yes it was
One of the most beautiful Songs. Harp. Flute. Guitar.
Todays Songs. Dont Go there.
Yes. Though.
Thre one and only Moody Blues. Have been and Always will be.....To take you there.
Thats how Fantastic they Are.
I totally agree with you. Even if the background music instruments are reproductions and played on the Mellotron - the composition is unique, like all their music.
The Moody Blues really had their own sound; Great!
One of the most amazing songs I've ever heard, it really moves me. I am 19 and lucky to have a father with amazing musical taste who introduced me to the moody blues when I was very small. I grew up believing they were as famous as other bands my parents listened to (the beatles, queen, the rolling stones) and only later I found out that was not true and it breaks my heart to know the world is missing such beautiful songs...
A small part of a hope, that a love that exists...
how many times can I favor this? Every good boy deserves favor...
These gents where always very Spiritual, Metaphysical to me.....but intensely Beatiful. Always had much to say in Music....a Gift....one of them.
mike pinder led them down this path..when he left...the moodies lost something very special...it was like the group had a body with no soul after that....thats why I ONLY listen to the original 7 albums...truly mind-expanding!! LIGHT + LOVE to all, my brothers+sisters!
@@mustangmikep51 My Moodies tribute band only plays the classic seven albums, right down to mellotron :-)
@@gareebee cool
Yet Joan Jett beat them into the Hall Of Fame.
@@mustangmikep51 No question, the core 7 albums are the best, but "I dreamed last night" & "Who are you now?" off the Blue Jays album, are great tunes as well
Another time....another place....my aunt bought me this album on my 10th birthday......a long time ago......🌘🌘🌘🌘🕙🕙🕙🕙✌✌✌✌
my God. whoever did this.. thank you
The Moody Blues are timeless. I don't believe I've ever met anyone who isn't captivated by their sound.
I love The Moody Blues; I just can't say enough about the pleasure I when I listen to their music.
One of the most beautiful songs ever.
they had MANY...but your right this is a great 1 for sure!!!!
they have MANY......take your pick....tough to choose just 1....just beautiful(like YOU ballet girl!) NAMASTE.
A far better band than the Beatles or the Rolling Stones
they had 42 other beautiful songs..chec them out!
I agree.
one of my favorite songs. So full of hope and innocence.
this song.. i instantly remember the smell of mr matey bubblebath and the dread that its almost bedtime. a memory from 1986 thats stuck with me all these years.. because my parents played this at night alot when i was 5 :)
No truer words. Love Life through the eyes of a child. It just sucks life goes by faster through those eyes, but it's worth It! !
To my son,always my child....
beautiful song. I dont know why this isnt regarded of one of their best songs!!! They should be in the hall of fame.
Beautiful colors in this forest....they'll be back.!
As a ten year old boy I turned on the radio to hear the song ‘GO NOW’, 53 years later I still love the music of the Moody Blues. So sad to hear of the passing of Ray Thomas last week.

The Moody's - headphone music at its best. If you really want to listen to the Moody's, headphones are a must.
+BIRISHPM agree,mind blowing...
It's shame cast upon the supposed Rock Hall of Fame that the Moody Blues are not in. What a farce.
+BIRISHPM that hall of fame is for simpletons..these guys are out of this world! I'dbe ashamed to [art of the hall of fame. lol
You got it Daisy!
I am listening with Bose headphones right now. I agree wholeheartedly. Music in the 60's was always with loud big speakers and/or headphones!
Their music is otherworldly
Twist one up & let your imagination go!! Chilllll
Rock and Roll Hall of Shame for this band not being inducted
Πες τα, πατρίδα !
Dices ad eos in domum suam
They were inducted yesterday, finally! 13th December 2017
RRHF is nonsense - Moodys and countless others. Its now a parody of its former self.
Great Album....Hard to believe that this was my first Album brought almost 44 Years ago! I went without School Dinners for a week to get it. I got hooked on 'Gypsy' and 'Eternity Road' and the rest was just fantastic. Neil Armstrong had just walked on the Moon and Music went through this Space age period. Moody Blues tracks never seem to age, I still hear something that never sounds as if it was Pigeon holed in a particular decade..... Awesome Band.
such lovely awesome lyrics yet very true, how marvelous our God is!!
Going to be 60. I was into acid back in the seventies The Moody Blues were the best tripping band.Never had a bad trip listening to MB Now that I'm Clean and sober it's even more of a trip
So glad I went to see them in '71 during peak times, still had Pinder and Thomas on the road then. Huge sound. Filled the auditorium and use a mirrorball frequently. Saw them again a couple nights ago, still great but different now, of course, as we all are. So glad they still tour. The staying power they have--no need for a bong, though...
Like many others I grew up with the Moody Blues. Its only since youtube came along that I've seen what a cool and truly talented legion of fans they have. I can only thank you all for making the web so good !!!
that's because children are pure.
I believe that if we want to keep the best part of ourselves alive; our Imagination and sense of adventure and wonder and certainly magic... then we must always keep that little child inside of us alive... For if we do than we will preserve the best part of who we are and remain forever young... Furthermore, if we look at the world through the eyes of a child filled with wonder and amazement and keep their vision that through the eyes of a child everything is brand new/ a new day every day,
was fortunate enough to see the moodie blues in 1970, Frankfurt Germany while using mind enhancing chemicals. what a trip.
@zoeruls once you get hooked on the Moodys, you're hooked for life, I can attest to that, 45 years and counting. I love the blues, and thats what I play and sing, but I cherish the Moody Blues music a great deal, takes me back to memories of my college years and a very special lady
The greatest band ever! I still have the origional LP's, that I bought when they first were released. I'm so glad that I got to see them when they were 5. Justin is the best male vocalist of an entire era.
I played this often for our children, and I hope they turn their children on to it as well.
"No thoughts must deceive him. In life he must trust." Good luck.
The Moody Blues have been the essential soundtrack of my life.
With the eyes of a child.... every moment a new wonder
every wonder brings so many questions..
How innocent it was to be a child
Man on man! I started thinking of one song off the album yesterday (per a discussion I was having with someone from my "era") and found this website! What memories! Used to be one of my favorite albums of the '70's!!
Use to listen to this song late nights in my flat above the family garage years ago when I was about 18 years old. Mind expanding to say the least.
The Moody Blues was the first band I paid attention to. I also paid attention to what they were saying in their oh so magnificent way. I still listen to them today
The wonderment this song embodies reminds us of what we strive to understand and protect in our kids and, later, our grandchildren-- never let us forget the innocence in them we are responsible to protect.
This is a great description of the effects of LSD, which the Moody Blues were experimenting with during their Lost Chord, Children's Children, Threshold period. Those three records were effective psyhotherapy for me as I approached adulthood. Long time ago. 🤓
How do you know that?? I ‚m sure they did not take drugs like most of the bands at that time
@@marietjie I know from numerous comments from Moody Blues members.
Like many British bands, they experimented with LSD, after which they recorded Days of the Future Passed. In Search of the Lost Chord even includes a song about Timothy Leary, the so-called "high priest" of LSD. When word got out that The Beatles album Revolver had been largely inspired by their psychedelic experiences, other artists decided to give it try, if they hadn't already. Acid had a powerful and lasting impact on the arts.
th-cam.com/video/ugfXp4KMQ5Q/w-d-xo.html
@@sarahtonin4649 How can you tell if the "numerous comments" from band members are true? Which band members?
Ja there is a song about Timothy Leary's , "exemplary lifestyle", composed by Ray Thomas. Does that mean that they experimented with drugs themselves?
If so, they did not go overboard like most bands did. They did not ruin their lives and health. There were no scandals.
@@marietjie Listen to what they themselves say about their experiences, including the comment from Justin Hayward I just posted. The information is available. Why are you so horrified by the idea? "Drugs" are not all the same thing, and a lot of musicians of that era used psychedelics and marijuana, neither of which are addictive, or even particularly dangerous, unlike meth, or heroin, or cocaine. In recent years, marijuana has been headed for pretty universal legalisation, and LSD and psilocybin have been used to cure addictions, depression, and anxiety in terminal patients. When you say "drugs," I think it matters what drugs you're talking about, since nicotine, alcohol, and caffeine are so widespread, even among young people.
........ only one word......... BEAUTIFUL........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I simply adore this video. An an explosion of colourful beauty....like a book of fairytales. Oozing innocence and purity. Seeing throught the eyes of a child really is the sweetest and least harmless of priviledges. to have bestowed upon you. It is a terrible shame that so many people reaching adulthood lose that precious commodity called "Goodness".
One of my favorite songs of all time from my favorite album of all time by my favorite group of all time.
thanks for posting moody blues
“That sound”❤️❤️
Just stunning, the picture's are beautiful, what an imagination of life...🥀🥀🥀🥀...2022...
Thank you brothers y sisters for beautiful thoughts y memories of that magical time we lived y experienced.
much like a child , i'm captivated by sound, color and imagery
to even create such a magnificent group of words and the music this song alone puts them in the hall of fame. shame on the music industry.
They're in my hall of fame.
In the end, that's all that matters.
I seen the Moody Blues at pine knob 40 some Year's ago. The best of the best i must say❤
A band I've been listening to since 1968 and still love them
After I listen to this I feel like nothing else matters. Sacred......
I have always loved this song...so beautiful and deep.
Your video is such a nice visual to go along with it.
Magical :)
All I Can Say is....................ETHEREAL!! ..... TRANSCENDING!!.....COSMIC!!..... And Still, Somehow, These Superlatives Don't Seem To Really Explain The Music Of The Moody Blues,....... It Is So Totally Overwhelming!!
appreciate good singing, and the Moodys individually as well as collectively have always been one of the best singing groups period!!!
An under appreciated Masterpiece. Placed perfectly on TOCCC.
Couldn't agree more, my first album was bythe MOODY'S in the 60's and I'm as hooked on 'em now as ever!!
This song like the other moodies classics are for forever and a day
Love it.
@NephthysMesheop thanks for that .. yes we should see the world and our surrondings through the eyes of child.. You know when we grow up we sometimes forget that we all still have that little child inside of ourselves who is alive and it is up to us to keep them nutured and when they want to be seen or heard allow them to be. Where do you think our little child has gone they are still inside of us all. It is still the best part of us all. Our Imagination and Our Creativity our Innoccence./Love
tears still from me ages fly from me moodies make hope for eternity
Yes this album is truly a wonderful masterpiece. My favorite band is Yes. Been listening to them for 10 years and I am 23 now. So I know fantasy, love, humankind kinda stuff mostly from them. For instance; the album Tales From Topographic Oceans by Yes is entirely about spirituality, love for the human race and our history.
From what I understand all of the songs are different, but it has a unifying theme of honoring our ancient human ancestors that have all helped together to create the beautiful and sometimes terrible world we live in now. I am rambling so lemme say this: Tales is my favorite album, as well, of all time.
One day I found this brown record in my closet in a record box from my various relatives. I instantly recognized it as one of the moody blues albums I hadn't heard and to be honest I never was really too into them. I only knew threshold and DOFP.
So I throw this puppy on the record player and sit down to smoke a fat ass bowl as i always do. I literally, PHYSICALLY, and instantly get my head blown off by the begginging of this record. I always blast my records and this begginging is an explosion so hahaha. Anyway by the time this song and then beyond hits you are on a whole nother level of musical existence.
When it takes you on the cosmic swirling trip through beyond and then blasts you out into space completely with Out and In... holy shit man. Hearing that for the first time was so unreal and brought me so much joy because I rarely get to hear such good prog fresh anymore.
This album is one of the only prog albums that I would consider close to the level of Tales From Topographic Oceans by Yes. What's even more amazing, is it was released in the 60s.
Peace.
Nicely done. When I worked in rock radio, I used to play this song every Christmas eve, going into midnight.
This art work is awesome perfect for this great song
I will be baptising my Goddaughter shortly and, (especially having seen the group several times before they became famous) will be using these words in the service from this song
"In the eyes of the child you must come out and see that your world's spinning 'round and through life you will be a small part of a hope of a love that exists in the eyes of a child you will see... in the eyes of the child you must come out and see...
Just beautifully evocative images to a great song! Thanks
So I look back on things kids nowadays nothing this band their music it's so relaxing plus there will never be anybody that will come close to them and their sound sometimes I would like to be young but then I was born in the sixties and the music till the early eighties was good then it went downhill all I know is seeing these guys in concert a place I will never forget but all you young people you will never experience these guys what a loss
"BLESS THE BABIES" :) Made me smile real BIG :) saying that, I "almost" forgot how often I used to say that when my daughter was little:) I do not feel people have lived full circle until they are able to take this into account :) even without getting to philosophical :) it is certainly the best stress reliever :) My kid saving a butterfly from a spider web :) THEN feeding it EXTRA flies to make it fair :) eyes of a child indeed:) slow down ,look around. Peace takes practice. Rick Wichita Ks. western slope Co.
