Mood is right. I've heard this song literally hundreds of times....still gives me the goosebumps to this day. The music from back in the day was just different. So much variety and changes of cadence and beats and dynamics. And the harmonies were off the charts. Today's music is so overproduced, monotonous, and they use the same old trap beats and auto tuned vocals. Just overall it doesn't stack up and you won't be listening to any of today's music 50+ years from now like we are listening to this 1967 classic song now.

This is my absolute favorite Moody Blues song. It ALMOST closes their 1967 concept album, "Days of Future Passed." You didn't continue it to its conclusion. It ends with Graeme Edge's "Late Lament," which is a spoken word poem that places an exclamation point to "Nights in White Satin" and to its parent album! The lead vocalist, Justin Hayward, was about 21 or 22 when this was recorded. Mike Pinder played the Mellotron and provided backing vocals. Ray Thomas is the flutist and also provided backing vocals. This album was made in secret with a few studio musicians playing string instruments and such, and credited as "The London Festival Orchestra" on the album. The record company was unaware that The Moody Blues were recording this type of album. It is a beautiful record that needs to be experienced as a whole to attempt to gather the full effect of it! It was one of 4 in a row that they recorded in a few days over TWENTY FOUR MONTHS!!!! All of them are concept records and all will blow your mind! 💙💙💙💙

I saw them in concert when I was eighteen in Houston, Texas in the 1980s. We were the youngest people there as most of their fans at the concert were from the previous 1960s generation. Let me say it was the best, most chill concert experience I’ve ever had. We were in the 3rd row and the people our parents age kept passing doobies up and down. No one stood up so everyone got to see the concert from their seats like civilized people. Except of course for standing ovations. Lots of standing ovations. Every song had a mood to it, and the lighting was incredible. Then they started Nights In White Satin .....the arena was pitch black with those first mysterious bars. Then brilliant blue and purple lights that turned to white light and a white knight was on stage. Like a live music video with a story. It was a mystical mid-evil dream. At one point they pulled out an enormous bejeweled silver sword that caught the light and shined back on the entire audience. That was an experience. Obviously it made an impact since I’m still talking about it over 35 years later.

THey started out as more of a blues group. Justin Hayward (guitar), a 19 year old kid stepped into the role vacated by Denny (Wings) Laine and brought this and other great songs. This is one of the very first "Progressive Rock" works. A sitdown with the whole album would be something you'd enjoy. there is good poetry and it is a fine piece of work that you can get lost in. Recorded in 67.

Great channel, Abracadabra. A bit of trivia for you. I used to go to uni with the daughter of the lady who this song was written about . The Mum used to be Justin Haywards girlfriend and apparently bought him the White Satin sheets as a present. Little did she know at the time that it would become inspiration for a classic song.

Oh I have loved the Moody Blues for five decades now! They're so calming! Thank you for this! You're a bright spot in a dark world, beloved! Love from Florida and God bless you mightily! ❤ Oh! This is only 2/3's of the song. The continuation says "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"

The Moody Blues was a genre of their own. Back in high school I had a double album of their greatest hits and I'd put it on the stereo and blasted it out while I was cleaning house. Moody Blues is one of a hand full of groups I can listen to for an entire album without getting tired of them. They're just great.

( she was georgeous and i was young so i couldn't get up the courage to try to ask her out ) anyway, ever since, whenever i go out with a girl, to this day, i always use this song and the everly brothers - unchained melody to set the mood and start great music conversation. they never fail.
