It's truly amazing what a gift of satin sheets from a friend can inspire.

[@ballhawk387]

"Love, Reign O'er Me", by The Who. The original album recording. "Life is Golden", by Suede. "Such A Small Love", by Scott Walker, and "in Dreams", by Roy Orbison, to name a few.

[@mortykun]

Probably not gonna happen. But I would love for a reaction to anything from Mango Groove.

[@jamesdunn9609]

If you loved "Nights in White Satin," you should check out "Lucky Man" by Emerson, Lake, and Palmer. It's from the same basic period and is also a beautifully arranged work.

[@helllied6989]

One version of this song ends with the following poem: "Breathe deep the gathering gloom, Watch lights fade from every room. Bedsitter people look back and lament, Another day’s 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?"

[@jowbloe3673]

"Nights in White Satin" isn't over until I hear a gong.

[@8moody1]

@@jowbloe3673 Aye, you need to listen to the entire album. The first time I had seriously listened to the Moodies, we had all taken 3 hits of acid which was my first time. We listened to this and In Search Of The Lost Chord and I was in heaven, valhalla or if you're a Celt like me it's Tir non og which means the land of the young in Scot's Gaelic,

[@lukewalters2457]

From the album: Days of Future Past (first and original version)

[@RaynorBear]

This video uses the shorter 7" single / radio edit.

[@ellenstrack6274]

The radio version and the one pulled up by most left off that poem, a DJ explained to me the musical desonence does not play well to listerners so they cut at the end of the song. I love when I catch the full playout. And the gong...

[@rafaelrosario5331]

There is a rendition of this song done more recently possibly 40 years after the original with full orchestra....might be right up your alley!! Enjoying the channel!!

[@randysenecal3740]

YES….react to the more recent live performance!!!!

[@davemason6501]

Yes and it seems he still has the same voice. He hasn't lost it with age. Hope Maggie does it as a then, and now comparison.

[@TerenceShortman]

The original album version had full orchestra this is the cut down version for radio

[@andrewmayfield3074]

The red rock concert was the best.

[@kwanshiyin]

Justin Hayward (lead singer) wrote “Nights in White Satin” in early 1967. He was 19 years old at the time

[@johnyarusso4953]

You will absolutely love the live version with a full Orchestra 35 years later.

[@jeffhensley6929]

I agree!

[@cheampeake1680]

To hear Justin's voice 40 years on you should hear this song live with full orchestration. "Moody Blues -- Nights In White Satin Official Live Video"

[@jeffhensley6929]

Yes! This!

[@WolvenHeart1]

I'm glad i grew up in the 60s and 70s. There was such a variety of types and meaningful across the genres. Also a lot more instruments like flutes and other wind instruments.

[@kennethohnemus3192]

They have been blowing minds since the 60s❤❤❤❤

[@BodhranPlayer66]

His voice is beautiful but what gives me chills every time is the haunting backup voices.

[@ballhawk387]

Some of those are evidently the tape loop keyboard keyboard called a mellotron (the eerie "ahhh-a-a-ahhh's").

[@BodhranPlayer66]

@@ballhawk387 well, that ruins that. 😂😂

[@tomwalker779]

I still have original vinyl The Days of Future Past. Turn down the lights, put on your headphones, relax and let it envelop you like a warm hug . 🇨🇦

[@JulieFreyHomeWebBiz]

It ends with the poem "Late Lament" written by drummer Graeme Edge. It starts with the words "Breathe deep the gathering gloom." Days of Future Past album. "Nights in White Satin" is the final song of the album and closes side two with "Late Lament". The album starts with "The Day Begins".

[@Legsandmoodyblues]

Wow 😮, I appreciate your love and support ❤😊.

[@rparret]

I’ve always loved the Moody Blues. Their songs had such special ‘moody’ sounds that could trigger one’s emotions. Awesome soft rock sounds. And they kept this up for over five decades. Great reaction, Maggie.

[@badplay156]

Moody blues has SO many great songs. I'm showing my age but my introduction to Moody Blues was in university. I was in the dorms and someone down the hall played Tuesday Afternoon every night especially when I was trying to sleep. It was an exceptionally pleasant experience

[@SteveGans-y4k]

The fathers of progressive rock. Everyone else came after them. Their core seven albums are required listening.

[@rayfairley6515]

The version live at the Albert Hall is great with a full orchestra it lifts the song up

[@Legsandmoodyblues]

Thank you for love and support ❤😊

[@steveullrich7737]

One of the greatest rock songs of the 60s and all time! Justin's powerful, emotional and lamentful vocals on 'how I love you' is the epitomy of pure love. Loved your reaction!

[@kimberlybrown7938]

You need to listen to the whole album. Orchestral rock....takes you on a journey

[@Legsandmoodyblues]

Thanks for the reaction gorgeous. I’ve been a huge fan of The Moody Blues for over 50 years. Justin Hayward has maintained a beautiful voice over the years. Thanks to everyone you mentioned. I look forward to hearing more MB reactions from you. Peace

[@housetroll2938]

I grew up with this music back in high school. Always loved their music. Dates me, but there was so much great music back then.

[@mikenolan8044]

This album - Days of Future Passed - was recorded in the summer and fall of 1967 in the aftermath of the Beatles Sgt Pepper exploding on the scene. The image of the Moody Blues as Emo Beatles is especially fitting.

[@kimberlygarwood-jl5om]

They are better than the Beatles IMOP.

[@jamescox9427]

This is from the album "Days of Future Past". It was a concept album about a day in the life of a man. Another hit from this album is "Tuesday Afternoon". The Moody's, over the years, had unwantingly developed a cult-like following. You might want to check-out "I'm just a singer (in a Rock and Roll Band)".

[@patrickdare5356]

Live at Red Rocks is one of my favorite musical experiences.

[@gordo0449]

Maggie when everyone was listening to the Beatles this is who I was listening to and at 75 they are still my favorite band of all time and I have been fortunate enough to see the live three times, enjoy this classic group!

[@stephengilbert-p7z]

As someone has said there is a later live version with orchestra at the albert hall ,well worth a listen.

[@stephaniethurmer5370]

For your own enjoyment watch the live verion from Royal Albert Hall

[@cynthias7299]

The Moody Blues are one of the groups that you should really listen to the whole album in one sitting.

[@Legsandmoodyblues]

I appreciate your love and support ❤😊. ❤ 😊

[@WindsurfMaui]

You may already know the story about this album. The Moody Blues were a rock and roll band with a number of hits when stereo recording was invented. The record company gave them money and said go make an album using stereo so we can see how it sounds. The record company was angry when The Moody Blues turned in this first concept album using a full Orchestra because they were expecting just rock and roll songs. However, when they released it the album became a big hit. You should listen to the other songs on the album they're almost as good as Nights In White Satin. And watch the official Nights In White Satin video which was recorded when they were older. The Orchestra plays a bigger role in the song, very emotional. Also, that is a great background.

[@llschnitz]

They were supposed to be creating a new updated version of Anton Dvorak's "New World Symphony" when they recorded this instead.

[@marcchetty7197]

Watched Justin Hayward in concert last year! Still got it at the age of 78! 💚

This album is meant to be listened to as a whole, as it takes you through a night and a day. It was early progressive rock. I hope you'll listen to the full album cut of this sometime, if not the entire album. We loved this song then and still do,

[@Legsandmoodyblues]

[@jsshuntr1257]

Moody Blues, Nights in White Satin live version at The Royal Albert Hall. With The World Festival Orchestra as "background band." You're welcome in advance.

[@TerenceShortman]

This is arguably from the first prog concept album "Days of Future Passed" 1967

[@scottjohnson7248]

"Just what you want to be. You will be in the end" Wow. This guy understood "manifesting" over 50 years ago. A man ahead of his time.

[@RiaVersteeg]

I have been a fan since they started in the 60's!

[@robertcampopiano6001]

Saw them in concert in 1988. Phenomenal show.

[@randallshuck2976]

I got the album "Days of Future Past" in the spring of 1970. I was late to the party but I was fortunate to see them live while I was stationed in Europe. I thought they were impressive then and still do. Great choice. Great reaction.

[@susanstein6604]

The Days of Future Passed starts with very early morning and continues through a 24 hour day with Nights in White Satin ending the album.

Fall of '71 while in college, my best friend Stevie and I would go on Sunday evening to the pizza shop a get a pie and a pitcher of beer. Many times, this would be playing on the jukebox.

[@plantlord3266]

classic song-grew up with this on radio and MTV-very distinctive voice and style

The Moody Blues and Pink Floyd were my two favorite bands in the early nineties. On a sad note, Mike Pinder passed away last year (April 24, 2024).

[@thomasburch2944]

I can still hear this crackling through an AM radio. Pop music used to be so different.

[@blueboy4244]

this was the 'last song' of jr high and high school dances - it was funny seeing people try to dance during the spoken part at the end.. Also...we used to think it was 'KNIGHTS' in white satin

[@stuBdoc]

Justin Hayward has one of the greatest voices of any genre. There are many Moody Blues songs that exemplify his vocals. Here’s a few: Never Comes the Day; Voices in the Sky; The Artist; Watching and Waiting; Question; and from his collab with John Lodge, Bluebirds, I Dreamed Last Night. Solo, try Forever Autumn. My wife has always been entranced by his voice, especially the cracking. It just makes the emotion so real.

[@helenarcarvalho]

The whole album is a masterpiece.

[@TimS-pf8wv]

The latest performance is even more incredible of this song live 13 years ago with a longer version with a full orchestra absolutely love! Check out on KZbin as well. Awesome group!

[@rickstolba9447]

Love this song. In the early nineties, I worked for a West Coast regional record store chain (anyone remember The Wherehouse?). I worked in the corporate office. Occasionally, artists would visit us, sign autographs and sometimes do a little ad hoc performance. One of those artists was Justin Hayward of Moody Blues fame. He performed an acoustic version of Knights. I was about 8 feet from the guy. A memorable day indeed.

[@vicprovost2561]

Yep, you take that memory into the great beyond, you are truly blessed!

[@stevedennison2828]

I bought records at Wherehouse. Came in orange plastic shopping bags.

[@MaBer-67391]

Nights In White Satin was one of the Moody Blues' greatest hits, and it was one of their quieter songs. They had more energetic ones like Ride My See Saw and In Your Wildest Dreams. Their vocals and instrumentals lifted you to another world.

[@ryanramey7394]

One of my favorite groups ever. A beautiful song of one of their last albums is called "Haunted ". A beautiful song about lost love.

[@rowenatulley852]

When he sings, "Oh, how I love you," you can hear pleading in his voice . . .

[@Ameslan1]

The Moody Blues' "In Search of the Lost Chord" album is my favorite record.. Had it since the 1970s.

[@MichaelGill-b8q]

Seriously a good song especially the solo and message at the end

[@allengator1914]

Their iconic song. However, there are so many other of their songs. You should also check out their live version of Nights at the Royal Albert Hall.

I am 66years old and i love rock music, but the moody blues are without a doubt my favorite band of all time. Their music takes me away like NO other band can. You’ve got to react to Tuesday Afternoon, it’s amazing and they have so many great songs, you should delve into them. 😊

[@ramonarose1685]

"Wake up Maggie (May/Reneé), I think I have something to tell you," sung by the inimitable Rod Stewart in his stunning song, Maggie May, and album "Every Picture Tells a Story." One of my other favorite albums of all time is the album "Days of Future Passed" by The Moody Blues, which debuted in 1967. I discovered their transcendant music at the tender age of 13 (I was a music student). I was blown away, especially by "Knights in White Satin," and listened to the entire album over and over again, and even my conservative parents approved (thankfully). The sublime music, harmonies, and poetry of The Moody Blues spoke to my young heart like nothing before. I recommend that you listen to the whole album, Maggie Reneé. You will not be disappointed. I sincerely thank you for this one . . ..

Justin Hayward (lead singer). A great band with a deep discography. 1967 though the 90s. I have seen them 5 times and all concerts were great!!!! Ray Thomas was on the flute. Their albums are concept in nature and must me listened to all the way through. Classic Rock.

They were up there with the Beatles, the WHO and the Rolling Stones for all time great British groups to come out of the 1960s. Do Legend of a Mind next, I could listen them all day! Their albums from 1967 - 1972 are as good a run as anyone ever had. Legends! 🔥🎵🎸🎤🎸🎹🎻🎶🔥
