[@anotheryou218]

If you weren't there when this album came out you may not fully grasp the impact of it. It wasn't just popular music that sold well and was just some of the best of it's era. Yes, it was an incredible era, a Golden Age really. And yet, this was special. There is a special place in our hearts for this music. I'm glad that you are helping today's music lovers rediscover it. Thank you!

[@roy19491]

I agree with LeeAnn that you should listen to the entire album.....in the 60's, we'd lie back in either the dark, or very dim lighting, with headphones, and just relax, losing ourselves in the music.....also, the first use of a mellotron in rock music

[@KeithFrost-mq4he]

written by Justin at the age of 19. The album version (Days of Future Passed) has the full version. There's also an amazing live version in the O2 arena in London from the early 1990s, with the London Symphonic that is totally amazing. Justin is in his late 70's now and still gigging. And he still sounds as incredible as the day they recorded this track.

[@kivimik]

The O2 wasn't completed until 2003. They did record a live album at the Royal Albert Hall in 2000 with the World Festival Orchestra (a one-time created orchestra) that paid homage to the London Festival Orchestra from the original album. The LSO wasn't involved.

Today's music can't hold a candle to this. I love the music from late 60's through the 70's.

[@MrSleazey]

I still recall vividly when I first heard this. I was living in Pampa, Texas, in the Texas Panhandle. I had a battery powered transistor radio stuffed under my pillow, because the hard plastic ear bud was too uncomfortable for my 15 year old ears. I was half asleep, listening to KOMA (a clear channel station) in Oklahoma City, the only station that played pop music, that I could reliably receive. This song started up, the slow drum beats, and the vibrant smooth orchestral strings hooked me immediately. I was wide awake in the first couple of seconds. The lyrics carried me far away, the flute, the vocals, the entire arrangement was something totally unique and so riveting. Justin Hayward's voice, the strings, everything was perfect. I was absolutely enthralled, from the first instant, to the final orchestral fade out. I listened carefully, waiting for the DJ to name of the song and the artists. The next day after school, I jumped on my bicycle and rode downtown, to the only music store in town. I put in a special order ($0.90), and had to wait for two weeks. I heard the song only a couple more times on the radio, and finally my 45 RPM record showed up. Another trip to the music store and I picked it up, paid for it, and took it home. I wore that 45 out completely, but a good friend bought the album "Days of Future Passed" as a Christmas present for me. I wore that album out too. As soon as it was available on CD, I got that one too. And now, I have four versions of it, the video above, the original US single, and two versions of the "Days of Future Passed", which includes the re-release in 1972. 56 years later, I'm 71 now, and this is still one of the most significant songs of my life. And it still grabs my attention every time it comes up in rotation on my music collection. Thanks, Moodies!

[@mikeriddle383]

I live in Pampa now but I'm from Borger. I'm 63 and did the same thing with the bike ride to the music store but with me it was to buy the album.

[@johnnieangel99]

My mom was a radio Dj back in the day and was given a copy of this LP as a demo. She brought it home and we listened to it until she passed away in 2018. She and I love this band

[@soultrampamplification8425]

This is what happens when every member of the band is an accomplished musician, singer, and songwriter. They are a unique as Pink Floyd. Huge catalog worth diving into.

[@kelaEQ2]

and Days of Future Past is what happens when you give that band unlimited access to a full orchestra.

[@Rassskle]

Ah....... not true. Great songs, music and records but renowned as not very good live due to a lack of musical talent. Their Australian tour in the 1980’s or 1990’s ( was so long ago I can’t remember which decade ) was celebrated by fans because they finally added a real musician. lol

[@lovly2cu725]

[@jayleeper1512]

Moody Blues and Pink Floyd, what an awesome comparison, I love that!!! They are both so iconic.

[@rafehr1378]

1968 if I remember right. Moody Blues came to Seattle's, Eagles Colosseum for their first album release. Well, the Moody Blues were stunning. When they ended the show. We all went crazy cheering, screaming how great they were for them. So, the lead singer said to us (the crowd). The band would do the set again. He said NO group had, has ever cheered them or clapped after their performance, ever. We stunned them as much as we were stunned by their magic.

[@deniseclairesafalzoi]

That is awesome! I love ALL music although classic rock, Mississippi Delta Blues & heavy metal are my all-time favorite genres. I saw VERY few bands who were as equally magnificent as they were in the studio. The Moody Blues, C, S, N & Young, The Rolling Stones, Metallica, RUSH & Bob Dylan were so magnificent, I've either SEEN or are interested in seeing these particular bands live again & again!

[@vicprovost2561]

That whole album deserves a reaction, it is a stunning achievement with them and The London Festival Orchestra bringing the piece about the parts of the day to life. They also used this album and it's notoriety as a springboard to a series of classic albums with classical, prog, rock and psychedelic accents in a memorable group sound and vibe, they really are worth taking a look at. Try Tuesday Afternoon but when you can, listen to the album Days of Future Past for your own enjoyment, I think you will be impressed. Enjoy! 🎵🎸🎤🎹🎼

[@ericsaari2901]

So, my Dad had a collection of LPs from the 60s and 70s - the music he grew up on. As a kid, I'd put them on the record player with headphones and play them, sitting in front of the stereo, and this album, this song, was one of my absolute favorites (I'm an idealist, a dreamer, and romanticist - suppose that makes sense). Years later, I was at a gaming convention with him, and he saw that they were playing an open air concert the next day. We missed that afternoon of the convention and stood outside with thousands, listening to them play and I heard this one live (among many others). I hadn't thought about that for quite some time, until this reaction, actually. What a moment it was, being able to reach back in time and see a band live that came out of that era, and see them with my Dad. Vibe? Oh yes. The Moody Blues certainly are that. I should find that album. It's in storage with the others. I don't have a record player anymore, but I'm going to find it.

[@daletwin1]

As everyone else mentioned, you haven't heard this song until you hear the longe version. of the song. There are some amazing parts of the extended version you missed, including the poem at the end. By the way, this is one of my all time favorite songs of all time and I saw them perform this song in concert years ago. Another great song by The Moody Blues is New Horizons.

[@colsanders4036]

The "Full version" of Nights in White Satin from their "Days of Future Passed Album includes "Late Lament"(the spoken section people where talking about) and an incredible lead in to the song and bridge between Nights in White Satin and Late Lament by the London Festival Orchestra. On the Album they are not listed as separate songs, they where separated for radio when they released the single.

I'm 51. My dad had Days of Future Past on vinyl. I would put it on, use headphones, lay on the floor, close my eyes and just fade away for a time. Such an amazing record

[@EchoesDaBear]

Maggie, as a vocalist, then I HIGHLY suggest listening to the entire album, Days Of Future Passed. As a very early example of a concept album and one of the first to incorporate rock music and an orchestra, it's an album of pure bliss!! The concept is basically 'a day of life' - starting with an overture, through dawn, morning, lunch, afternoon, evening, twilight & finally night (this song). The poem others speak of both opens and closes the album, and for many of us (myself included), the poem, Late Lament, is truly a part of this song. Justin Hayward has a wonderful voice (still does, now over 55 years on from this album). Bass player, John Lodge, had a great falsetto, Keyboard/Mellotron player, Mike Pinder, has a warm, deep voice - he recites most of the poems that are written by the drummer, Graeme Edge. Finally, the flutist, Ray Thomas, also has a wonderful voice. Their harmonies are sublime. A deep dive into their catalogue is well worth the journey! Cheers.

[@sonjarussell7332]

I can NOT believe I missed the live stream! I had most of their albums in high school but this one, Days of Future Passed, was my favorite. This song, Nights in White Satin, is the best song on the album but the rest all fall perfectly into place. Please react to the whole record - or live versions of the songs if you can find them. You can truly feel the audience emotion and vibe with Moody Blues live performances. The soulful feel of the entire album is unreal…..even if the album cover artwork still freaks me out a little! I’m in my 60’s and this group was a big part of my high school experience in the 70’s. Knew you would appreciate them and their talent and musicianship!

1 I am 71. I have been listening to this song since the late 60s. If I had a dollar for every time I listen to this song, I could buy a new truck. You really do need to hear the full version. It adds to and continues the magic. The album is on the surface about morning mid-day, Tuuuuuuuesday Afternoon, evening, and night. On a deeper level, it is about a lifetime.

[@JerryDurante]

"Days of future past" is one of my all time favorite albums. Side two kills. My all time favorite song on this LP is "Tuesday afternoon". The album Days of future past, each song is a part of a day. Starting with morning working it's way to afternoon, then evening and finally night. Back in the early 1980s when I was in high school me and a few friends fascinated with the moody blues. We frequently drop acid and listened to them all night long while hallucinating. You didn't get the poem at the end. 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 Pinprick holes in a colorless sky Let insipid figures of light pass by The mighty light of ten thousand suns Challenges infinity and is soon gone Nighttime, to some a brief interlude To others the fear of solitude Brave Helios, wake up your steeds Bring the warmth the countryside needs

[@johnkidwell3932]

You misspelled it, The album is "Days of Future Passed"

[@JerryDurante]

@@johnkidwell3932 Yes, corrected, and technically the first song on side two is The afternoon, Forever afternoon (tuesday). And yet every interview I seen with band members and everyone I have ever known have called it tuesday afternoon. So I ask does it really matter?

[@johnkidwell3932]

Know the poem by heart, along wit the 1st poem, The Day Begings, along with the rest of the album. I first heard the Moodies in the early 70's. I came home on leave from the Navy, and while visiting a friend, he said John, you've got to listen to this group, and do it with headphones on. I was instantly hooked...

At last a Moody Blues reaction. The Moody's are/were beyond great they were pioneers in their time.

[@JimLaughlan]

As an FYI during the song, the "orchestral" part is actually performed on a Mellotron, by Mike Pinder (keyboardist). It's what made the Moodies' songs and albums. The background vocals, which sound like a choir, were done by both John Lodge (bass) and Ray Thomas (flutist).

"slowed down Beatles" They were all contemporaries and played off each other, learned from each other, competed with each other. That was part of the incredible creativity that exploded in that era. Those of us who were growing up at that time didn’t realize what a renaissance-like moment it was. We just assumed that music would always be like it was. I LOVE this whole album. You really should listen to the whole thing because it’s a continuous story/gestalt. The poetry is on the album, they weren’t usually included on the radio cuts played, which was the version you played. I was in high school when it hit, bought it and still put on and listen to the whole thing regularly.

One of the most beautiful songs ever performed .. their 1967 album Days of Future Passed is a masterpiece .. Tuesday .. forever Tuesday ..

[@unattributed1641]

Honestly, as others are saying, this is best heard in the context of the full album: Days of Future Past. It's a truly groundbreaking album. And others have reacted to the full album on KZbin without having copyright issues.

[@TNesley]

The entire “Days of Future Past” album is iconic. The perfect blend of orchestral and progressive rock.

[@vvnavarrewolfvv4218]

I bought the album when it first came out and I still have it.

[@rowenatulley852]

Although it's not the Moody Blues, Justin Hayward's song Forever Autumn is a beautiful tear-jerker . . .

[@melvinyoung3474]

I'm 64 and was around for their beginnings. I repeat, The Moody Blues are super.

[@karengoodenough827]

Saw them play at Red Rocks in Colorado with the Denver Symphony Orchestra, it was a fabulous show! When they started this song you could see heat lightning in the distance over the city and other than the music you could have heard a pin drop, the whole audience was silently just mesmerized by the band, it was a magical experience

[@lovly2cu725]

I WAS THERE. JOHN POINTED AT ME AS I WAS WALKING IN & ALL OF A SUDDEN I HAD A CROWD AROUND ME AS IF IM IMPORTANT. A FRIEND CAME OVER & TOLD ME HE POINTED AT ME. SCARY.

I live in Maryland Eastern shore close to Ocean City. So far all of this classic rock I am very familiar with it's all from my generation. I graduated high school in 87 and I think everybody from my generation has heard all of this stuff. We were definitely a classic rock generation. Thank you 😊

[@sheriraemalfroid-patterson2935]

One of the best concerts I’ve ever been to, even though it was over 25 years after their popularity in the 70’s!

[@jss27560]

I'm old because I keep on hearing these songs and groups I grew up listening to and many people never heard of them.

[@larryfisher5796]

They have been around the years .I'm 79 YEARS old and they have been one of my favorites

[@PatR2243]

One of my favorite bands.

[@christinedennison7770]

Moody blues are great musicians. Songwriters and singers. Thanks for reviewing them

[@jeffsaviola2109]

The live version of this song is also perfect .. full orchestra .. they are older but you’d never know

[@charlesclifton1006]

Yup heard of them... actually met them in Vancouver and I twice visited their old head office in Cobham, Surrey, England. Their music had a very positive influence on my musical taste and appreciation of classical music. Opera also had an influence as I, as a young boy grew up listening to it. I now, at 72, love most forms of music as long as it carries a decent melody. Here's something I just learned ... they had an encounter with a UFO in 67 just after Hayward and Lodge joined the band... google it!!!!! Pretty special group and much loved by millions I am sure. I am so glad to have lived while they grew from their infancy as young rockers into the powerful pop group they became. I truly thank each one of them for being a huge part of my musical journey through this life.💙💙💙💙💙💙 The 6th heart is for Tony Clarke (their early Producer and often referred to as the 6th Moody)

[@billwalker4282]

I saw Moody Blues in concert in 1970. Just outstanding.

[@douglasernst9477]

I was fortunate enough to have seen the Awesome Moody Blues live back in late 70’s on a Thanksgiving weekend while the rest of my family went away for the holiday without me as I had to work. Best thanksgiving ever. The concert was a “ holy chit “ incredible performance.

[@mikebunner3498]

Maggie, I love and adore your channel and SO enjoy how you are willing to share your knowledge and training with us mere morals.. I have enjoyed this band since the 1960's. I got into them BIG time in the 1970's. And yes I saw them perform in Raleigh, NC back in the 80's/ Girl if you ever get the chance go see them.. They are NOT in the Hall of FAME for no reason. They earned it!!!! Maggie are you too amazed that Justin did this when he was 19. One 's forever and continued.

[@bobb9541]

I'm 73 and the MB's are in my top three bands of all time. Very fortunate to have seen them in concert twice. They are my "head" music.

[@tommhill9948]

💙22 times live for me 💙

[@lovly2cu725]

JUSTIN IS TOURING

[@richardshawver7264]

That flute solo will haunt you for the rest of your life. In time of shutting down like falling asleep or the like you will hear the ethereal strains. and the whole song will come flooding back. This is the climax of the album Days Of Future Past. If you just play this last song thru you will hear the poem you heard about.

[@bjspeck4337]

Check out the whole album, Days of Future Passed. Each song is a portion of the day and is a fabulous piece of work. 72 yrs old now, older than dirt - grew up in a magic time of music.

[@garykellam5596]

This is one of the groups that guided me through college in the 70's.

[@sandybruce9092]

I was and still am a big fan of Moody Blues - one of my first concerts about 1971. And yes, I still have the albums!

[@kevinmalone2218]

Had the privilege of seeing them live around 1979.

[@edamnaf9265]

You need to listen to "Tuesday afternoon", "The Voice", "The actor/Voices in the sky", "Blue Guitar" ...so many...this band is amazing.

[@jordanparker5949]

One of the most beautiful songs of all time. And one of the spookiest.
