Justin Hayward wrote this song when he was 19. Some have said the lyrics were written many years prior, but the music was composed when he was 19. It's hard to imagine writing such a deep song at that age.

[@johncollins392]

Moody 's were still performing up to about12 years ago!,individual members still performing today!,80,million albums sold!, listen to' isn't life strange!'

[@gurulimbo]

“Days of Futures Past” is a concept album and it runs like a movie score imo. Beautiful, deep and moving album. This song goes into “Late Lament” poem to music style. 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 colors from our sight Red is grey and yellow-white But we decide which is right And which is an illusion

[@davidbarker77]

And then the gong. The gong adds a wonderful coda to the piece.

[@MilosDaddy]

For me, that poem is really what makes this song great!

[@lindafray1398]

thanks! good review by a poet yourself?

Only when I’m low It helps the healing, sometimes Scars covered with ink

Passed not past. Just saying

[@jcool6466]

This is one of those once in a lifetime songs. It’s a timeless classic for a reason and great job guy’s giving this the love and respect it deserves.

[@3generboiler]

The live version with orchestra from a few years back will bring tears to your eyes at the end

[@TheNikki295]

I am 67 yrs old and the moody blues are my all time favorite band....got to see them in concert two times, once in the late 70s and again in 1987. Yes they did acid and wrote music while tripping....both times I saw them my husband and I were also tripping!

[@MattKrogmeier]

The entire album is gorgeous. Considered to be one of the first "concept" albums. It's a beautiful, mellow, lights low listen.

[@nim4464]

birth of prog rock

[@detroitlady7201]

Pink Floyd had them beat.

[@xScooterAZx]

Rick Wakeman did the first concept album if I remember right.

[@shyman99]

@@detroitlady7201 - No they didn't. Moody Blues has long been documented the first.

[@shyman99]

@@xScooterAZx - Wut? LOL

[@avibecalledblessed3959]

I was raised on Moody Blues! So happy to see you guys checking them out. Last concert I went to with my Mom about 10 months before she passed was Justin Hayward solo tour (he is the singer in the Moody Blues) and it was so special because it was my Mom wh raised me on them. Along with Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin. This made my heart happy seeing you guys listening. ✌️❤️

[@davidbooth7778]

Seeing them live with accompanying orchestra was a real treat. And not a bad track on this album that covers an entire day. "Tuesday Afternoon" is another exceptional track.

[@guidedmeditation2396]

The Singer, Justin wrote this song when he was just 19. His band is from Birmingham UK I believe . His girlfriend had just bought him some white satin sheets. What an awesome love song.

[@deonnaclendenin3382]

Classic ! Who hasn't written a love letter never meaning to send or overlooked beauty with your own eyes ! Great song

[@roberttanner5093]

Moody Blues were in the front of the line when it came to concept albums. 1967. ..this album is great from beginning to end.

[@seiraeiramasil2302]

Moody Blues, "Nights In White Satin", maybe, the greatest of all of their hits, I know it's definitely one of my favorite songs by them. They have so many like, "I'm Just A Singer In A Rock and Roll Band", "Tuesday Afternoon/Evening Time To Get Away", "The Story In Your Eyes", "Question", "Ride My see Saw", "Your Wildest dreams" and more. I thought for a moment that the song was going to be the true full version, which has it's own title, "Late Lament", it's a poem set to music, it's pretty cool, maybe you'd like to listen to it sometime. Thanks so much for this reaction!

[@KenBober]

I hope you guys dive deeper into the moody blues. Such an iconic band.

[@stephaniewashburn7700]

It just takes you on such an emotional journey 🖤

[@lisarainbow9703]

The Moody Blues weren't really a "blues" band, they were actually pioneers of progressive rock. Huge & diverse catalog ,if you dive in. Check out: Question The Story in Your Eyes Gypsy Tuesday Afternoon

[@debbieplato5107]

The Moody Blues are amazing! This one song is off a concept album about a day in life. They were one of the first bands to incorporate an orchestra and a concept album. Tuesday afternoon is another hit off this album.

[@aaronm4782]

Ride My SeeSaw (1968 ) and I'm Just a Singer (In a Rock and Roll Band) (1972) are masterpieces

[@heidi82]

YES!! I love The Moody Blues. Such a beautiful song. Glad you guys got to this one.

[@matthewdrake4385]

Moody Blues are considered one of the first symphonic rock and progressive rock bands. Think along the line of how certain Pink Floyd albums have like a central theme all the way through. That’s similar to how the Moody Blues were on Days of Future passed in the mighty year of 1967. In 1967 alone you had Hendrix, The Doors, The Beatles with Sgt Pepper, Traffic, early Pink Floyd with Syd Barrett, Cream , Stones and the Who, just to name a few in that year alone.

[@Angi-no-e]

This song was released the year I was born. Along the same lines is, "From the Beginning" by Emerson, Lake, and Palmer, I think you'd enjoy that one too.

[@nickalleye]

Never heard of this song (or band), but there's some amazing singing right here

[@donnabruhn6907]

This is the most amazing real music, real musicians, real instruments. Beautiful music. Get low put on your headphones on and listen to the whole album Days of Future Passed. It's A journey, a musical journey. All their albums were a journey

[@kerrythorn8575]

The beautiful bass in the background always get me.

[@EchoesDaBear]

Absolutely LOVE this track! So much so, it became the wedding song for my wife and I! For me, this is one of THE ultimate love songs. It's message is eternal. Thanks for making my morning. The reason why it sounds like it belongs in a musical is because the album it came from, Days Of Future Passed, released in 1967, is a concept album. Each song deals with a portion of the day (starting at dawn, morning, lunch, afternoon, evening and finally - the night - this song). It was a very early example (some say 'first') of 'orchestral' rock - where the band did their bits, but in conjunction with an orchestra - and the result was pure magic!! Even if you don't do a reaction to it, please, PLEASE do yourself a favour and listen to the whole album (with headphones or a really good stereo system, because the production is stellar!) Standout tracks besides this are: Tuesday Afternoon, The Sun Set, Twilight Time, Dawn Is A Feeling, Another Morning - I've basically just named the entire album!! Other Moodies must listens are: The Story In Your Eyes (much more rocking number), Question, Melancholy Man, I'm Just a Singer In A Rock N Roll Band, Gypsy, The Voice, Lovely To See You, Your Wildest Dreams...for starters. Messages of peace, love and understanding are strung throughout their catalogue.

[@morrisgautreau6704]

Such a great classic song! So much emotion!

[@fakefunbags]

I can't imagine going back in time and being able to actually listen to all this music for the first time again. This song, I heard on my brother's stereo, laying on the floor with his 'quad speakers' (that just meant 4 speakers) all pointed at my head. Way before good headphones. My mom was yelling, "Turn that down, or I'm going to throw that stereo out!!" The Moody Blues, an amazing band. Thanks you guys.❤🤘

[@terriertz5134]

I love this song but the album version was extended and had a poem included, which is definitely worth a listen. Another band you should check out called AnnenMayKantereit. They do a cover of Tom's Diner with Giant Rooks. Both bands are from Germany.

[@malcolmnorman5237]

Glad you found the Moody Blues, Seventh Sojourn (1972) was the first album I bought with my own money.

[@austinfallen]

Forever Autumn is another absolutely amazing song from the lead singer of the moodies. It hasn’t got the dramatics of nights, but it still hits hard

[@garri5108]

Isn't it Jeff Wayne composition ?

[@paulqueripel3493]

​​@@garri5108 he wrote the original music, two others wrote the lyrics. It was a Lego commercial tune according to Wikipedia.

[@MarkReed-smokindeist]

Though that double-album is worth an exploration in one long video. Jeff Wayne's War of the Worlds is amazing. I have the original version on CD that I ripped to my computer ages ago.

[@joescott8877]

I always got a big "drama" rush out of "Autumn." When he sings, grief-struck: "Now you're not here!..." Chills-n-bumps, man!

[@BP-kx2ig]

Forever Autumn is not a Moody Blues track.

[@nthdegree1269]

One of my favourite songs and moments in music

[@swurvegirl1978]

I'm shocked that you're just hearing this. One of the most hauntingly beautiful songs ever crafted

[@AppalachiaRRlover]

The whole album is fire!! Gotta listen to the whole album! Days of Future Passed! One of my top 5 albums ever

[@Uriahjw]

This is one of my most favorite songs from the Moody Blues.

[@neilt6480]

Belated thanks for covering my favourite track from my favourite album by my favourite band, it just popped up on my feed. I have fond memories of when I first picked up this album. I spent many evenings kicked back in a comfy chair with DoFP cranked up in the best headphones I could get my folks to spring for as a birthday pressie after they got sick of telling me to turn it down.

[@jpuffandthefluffybunch1288]

They are my Dad's favorite band. So many great albums. I like most of their catalog. Timothy Leary is a great song.

[@BP-kx2ig]

Timothy Leary is actually called Legend of a Mind.

[@shirazzza]

Watching you two blissing out to this is the wholesome content I've needed today

[@Moss_and_Such]

Shout out to recommend this. My moms favorite song. Heard it a lot as a kid. We decide which is right and which is an illusion.

[@joshuagarcia8412]

Still to this day this song gives me chills

[@montag4516]

Like many of the British classic rock bands the Moody Blues essentially created a genre of their own. No shortage of great songs, and complete albums, from the Moody's.

[@douglasg.9271]

There’s a lot of great music out there. Enjoy this journey. I know I do.

[@HippyMom69]

Yay!! Breathe deep, the gathering gloom...I hope you guys can listen to the rest of it. It's called "Late Lament". "Tuesday Afternoon" is worth a listen. Glad you're checking these cats out!

[@mark-be9mq]

Yes and yes.

[@connieleighton4375]

Watch lights fade from every room. Why does everyone cut that out ? The song isn't over til the gong

- YES! - A "must", indeed!...

[@lordessducky8494]

@@connieleighton4375 , yes! I don’t get it. Because that was THE only way I would ever hear it played on the radio. In my opinion it is just incomplete without “Late Lament “ , and of course the gong.

Have to check this movie out did not know this! I met the MB's in 1993. First show 1972 they are my favorite Band! Hope Justin Hayward, John Lodge and Mike Pinder reads these comments here! Such good reviews from so many males. I love this! these MBS members are still with us!

[@charlesfitzgerald9631]

You were right…..There is more…At one point in their career they reproduced this & added some more orchestration & a spoken word poem. Both of which are so beautiful!…..

[@acemodez3169]

My brain certainly started saying: Breathe deep, the gathering gloom, Watch lights fade, from every room. Then I realized it's been a long long time since hearing it cause I can't quite find the next line in my memory, I know it's there somewhere...

[@joescott8877]

@@acemodez3169 Bedsitter people look back and lament: Another day's useless energy spent...i'm just blown away their version didn't have the poem!! I just found out that it is apparently NOT considered part of the song on SOME versions OF the song!! WTF? It belongs in the whole song like Paul's happy little "in the middle" song belongs in "Day in the Life"! Argh! I think they would have really dug trying to figure out the meanings of the poem!

[@GrimrDirge]

It's been e hell of a ride watching reactors from every background explore new music. There are some low-effort phonies out there, but for everyone who opens themselves up to the music, it is a soul-expanding trip.

Very sensual song! One of my favorites! You must watch the live performance of this! Amazing!

The ending was cut off. "Breath deep the gathering gloom...The album covers an entire day, ending in the aloneness of night. It is the end of the album. The shortened version played on AM, FM always played the full length version.

One of my favorites is the full version of Question. Sooo good!!!❤

[@monicas.4732]

That's an amazing song too

[@Levi_Amongst_the_Watchers]

There's an extended version of this song that has a monologue at the end that's really interesting. This is what it says: Beathe deep in the gathering gloom Watch lights fade from every room Bedsitter people look back and lament Another day's useless energy's 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 grey and yellow white And we decide which is right And which is an illusion?

Just lay back, close your eyes and let the sounds wash over you! Beautiful!

[@rhiannonrecommends]

Oh lovely! I was classically trained on flute and my mom gave me a best of moody album and I would play with it to my hearts content to this song and "Tuesday afternoon". I was probably 12/13 at the time. Evoked so much emotion in me at the time and was a turning point in how I played and performed with my own emotion.

[@kevingrasmick9369]

I grew up listening to this band my momma was a hippie she always played this on her reel to reel. Rob Zombie also used this song on his rendition of Halloween.

[@johncarpenter3751]

My first concert, I was 6yrs old in 1988. It’s Virginia in the summer and my parents drag me to a park called Wolftrap. Low and behold the moody blues are performing live and I was amazed because I had never seen music live prior to that moment

[@phonebone81]

You have to imagine that this song came out in 1967. At that time, no band made this effort with an orchestra and yes, you are right, it sounds like a Disney song. I only got to know it years later and when you danced to it in the clubs all the girls were on your side - what a great time ;-)) Best wishes @all from hamburg (germany)

[@renmuffett]

Takes me back. Always been my favorite song. So seriously deep, heavy, and FAR OUT! ( As we said back then). Check out their song (Tuesday Afternoon.)

[@jeffreycook2112]

When I was a child in the early 70’s, I saw the Cleveland Orchestra on a school field trip. It was mesmerizing. I have loved music with orchestration ever since.

But they have a huge catalog of amazing music.

I love being able to be present to watch new Moody Blues fans being born. Seriously, listen to the whole album called Days of Future Past, start to finish. You won't find the song listed on the album by this name, though, it's referred to simply as The Night.

[@allengator1914]

This was THE "Slow Dance Song" when I was in High School in the early 70s. The entire "Days of Future Past" album with the London Synphonic Orchetra is great. If you want to hear a more "rockin'" Moody Blues check their song "The Story In Your Eyes"

[@CrankyBeach]

I've had the privilege of hearing this song played live with everything from a full orchestra all the way down to just Justin with an acoustic guitar and a single backup singer (who also played the flute solo), and everything in between.

Back (way back) when I was a Young teen, I had this 45 and played it non stop. It had been my brothers record who was 5 yrs older and It became mine in '73 when he went off to college. Absolutely love this song, my one time teen obsession. ✌❤😎

When I hear this, it make think of the old TV ads for the "Freedom Rock" compilation albums.

[@rafehr1378]

Saw them in 1968 at Eagles Auditorium in Seattle, WA. After they played the album, Nights In White Satin. We cheered and screamed for more. Singer said they had no more music to play, but would do their set again. He also added that no group ever cheered for them. They did play. No other band ever did that.

[@isaacvanwart-i2v]

Another LP that needs to be heard in its entirety. This song is the stand out, for sure, but the whole LP is similarly lovely.

[@wallacecallow2255]

Ever since I first heard the Moody Blues, I've felt as though my spirit were linked with theirs. I've seen them many times in concert, and I do covers of them in my one-man-band kind of way, at open mics. They aren't just a band. They're a connection to the infinite.
