WHAT HAPPENED TO MUSIC! The Moody Blues - Tuesday Afternoon REACTION!!

[@MDreeezy]

So Refreshing

[@Mudbug2000]

That’s the point! The comments are to clue you in-not to put you down. The people listening to you want you to understand this music so you can actually enjoy it for the rest of your life.

[@Mudbug2000]

SO-you reacting to the talent of the singing groups or are you critiquing & reacting to the video with 60s background music. You’re missing out if you don’t see the live performances.

[@stephensmith2937]

You are a very perceptive young man. Thanks for taking on my generation's music.

[@MDreeezy]

That means alot to me, thank you💙

[@robertlear2712]

Both “Nights in White Satin” and “ Tuesday Afternoon” and from the album Days of Future Past. It is a masterpiece.

[@user-jf4fd3tq9p]

Love your reactions to the awesome music from my generation, I’m 70 and grew up with the best music ever and still listen to it every day, this is my husbands favorite album

[@lesblatnyak5947]

Brilliant album released 1967. First album with a rock band and symphony orchestra together. Another great classical rock band is YES with a song called Roundabout off the Fragile album. Enjoy your YES journey 🙏🎶

[@MDreeezy]

Been getting lots of requests on YES, so i will be sure to check them out👀

[@johncollins392]

Yes the Beatles weren't always the first!😀,this is off ,'Days of future passed!' the Moody's first album released in 1967!,the album is a concept album running through the days of the week!,finishes with the classic 'Nights Ln white satin'.

[@tranquil65]

To get the true experience I think it's best to experience the moody blues with music only since most of the world in the '60s '70s experience the Moody blues without visual aids or video.

[@richardmckee5729]

I'm glad your watching the music of the sixties! Now you're getting where 'The Summer of Love' came from. Love, peace and music to you, my friend! ❤🎼

[@leannmiller7153]

This is on the same album as Nights In White Satin. Each song, of a 24 hour day, flows into the next. Days Of Future Passed is a brilliant album that’s meant to be listened to in its entirety.

[@MDreeezy]

I will take a listen! Thank you

[@guyray1504]

At the end of the last song " Nights in White Satine" is a poem you will enjoy on the album.

[@lindasalaki9404]

What a beautiful song 💘💘. Love the Moody Blues. Still listen to the album 😎☮️

[@MDreeezy]

Very talented group

[@venvnco6259]

For some reason. I like hearing this song while looking out the window. On a cold but sunny Tuesday afternoon.

[@charlesstraight5499]

The 60s brought on a musical Renaissance, a beautiful lovely music that made people happy and made them feel good. And made them love one another. Well, the evil ones couldn't allow that to stay because they are getting in the end of their time on this world so start in the 90s mostly from the mid to late 90s. I started changing music. And only allowed certain types of music which help them separate people from one another and help them Stir up anger against 1 another, which didn't exist in the 60 70s. In most of the eighties , those were the decades of love and the music of love period

[@ginalolajupiter2942]

One of the pioneers of prog rock! Great choice!

[@MDreeezy]

Couldn't agree more!

[@blindreactions9498]

I love this BAND..1 of my favorites of theirs is Melancholy Man ❤ Love seeing them enjoyed anew ❤

[@MDreeezy]

So good!

[@myownchannel247]

Great choice on a beautiful classic! Just A Singer ( in a rock and roll band) next by the Moody Blues 👍

[@MDreeezy]

Got it!

[@commonsense6967]

My favorite from the Moody Blues!

[@yilomina2047]

I love this song! I grew up listening to it - my mom was a big fan. Wonderful reaction.

[@MDreeezy]

Thank you! Great song!

[@karenmandeville7116]

they were my first concert, back in 1971.

[@MDreeezy]

Thats so awesome!

[@UnknownClasher0]

Real music

[@glennelfmann3143]

Yes, no pitch correction or auto tune

[@kathyrizzi8754]

It was a Tuesday when he thought & wrote this song…you’re right MDreeezy!👍👏👏👏🥰

[@PeterOConnell-pq6io]

Ooh, what a mighty band they were! ( you should check out 'What a lucky man he was')

[@louismarzullo1190]

What happened to music? They stopped making it. They also paved paradise & put up a parking lot. Nice reaction!

[@MDreeezy]

Thank you🙏🏽

[@louismarzullo1190]

My pleasure! Keep going!

[@kristinemckee9279]

Ding ding ding ding ding!!! Yes you are understanding more and more!

[@MDreeezy]

Hahah im glad i can connect the dots a little bit

[@lisarainbow9703]

He's just beginning to see.....🎶🎶🎶

[@richardmartin9565]

This song is timeless.

[@MDreeezy]

Oh most definitely

[@RuthKing-wm9nw]

My generation still listens to our music every day. This is real music.

[@RobertRitter-l9z]

"Nights. . . " and this song are both from the same album "Days of future Passed." Starts with "Dawn is a Feeling" and goes thorough the whole day.

[@Star_R666]

Here's the my opinion about older/classic music. One or more people would write music, choose what notes, riffs, melodies. Where and when each instrument fits into the song, the arrangement. Each artist/band put their soul into each song. Lyrics are written. Sometimes the lyrics come first like in Elton John and Bernie Taupins music. Sometimes it the music first. Imagine creating music that's never been heard before, techniques, melodies, originals. Lyrics that mean nothing and are just fun to lyrics that try to change the world. Much of music today is computerized, only a beat that repeats, no soul, no true musicians that feel every note. Yes, some write and create lyrics from the heart and have meaning but those are getting fewer and far between. Vocals weren't always "american idol" worthy, but each made you feel. Not all artists were amazing singers but their songs touch you. For me the late 60s and 70s had such a diverse amount of genre's and artist but sadly corporate american chose to make much of music today all about money and hits. Back then you'd buy albums and listen to the entire thing, many were recorded in a story telling order. I have been passionate about music my whole life and to see the younger generations discovering my generations music makes me hopeful and happy. Hopeful that new artists see the value in live music and musicianship, background vocalists, artists and stop using computers and auto tune and just enjoy the art of creating music with others. That's just my truth. Keep on discovering all music but also appreciate the talent.

[@MDreeezy]

I agree with you 100%.

[@karenmandeville7116]

very impressed! you're very insightful for such a young person. very refreshing.

[@MDreeezy]

Thag means allt to me! Thank you

[@ripvanwinkle2002]

best way to be a great reactor is to be HONEST say what you love and hate and dont get. and are surprised by.. dont try and guess what we want you to say ( not saying you do) reactors are like watching stuff with a friend. if your friend is dishonest, its no fun..

[@ballhawk387]

What happened to music? So much of it got its *soul* processed out if it. If you like this, check out The Hollies' tunes from about the same era. "He Ain't Heavy, He's My Brother" is an inspiring one, and "Carrie Anne" and "Look Through Any Window" are catchy and fun. Another real *fun* record from the same year (1967) is The Who Sell Out, which was sort of a parody/tribute to British "pirate radio" which broadcast music the commercial stations wouldn't touch from ships with transmitters in the English Channel, with an eclectic mix of witty, driving, and beautiful tunes.

[@user-vx3wx7ci7b]

I'm 65 and it's nice to see young people enjoy the music that has always been in my life, next song "question" oh If you haven't done any Pink Floyd,they are my very favorite

[@glenndespres5317]

Nice. I would follow this up with Dawn is a Feeling. Liked your comments about this music being ‘pure’ vs today’s music. You’re right about that but what those 60s and 70s artists did have was the creative wizards in the studio. George Martin for The Beatles comes to mind.

[@user-ii3vn8tn3q]

The band YES 'Roundabout'

[@MDreeezy]

Added!

[@paulstewart6203]

Enjoyed your reactions and your thoughts on the song, another Radio hit from the Moody Blues is 'legend of a mind' it's about the so-called Guru of the 60s, Timothy Leary.

[@trishalivingston1051]

Love this song. It's Justin's first single. Heard him launch it and perform it for the first time in Borders bookstore, Ft. Lauderdale, a few years back. It's played constantly in the UK or was at the time. Justin is the powerhouse behind the group. He is a true musician and song writer. The others are good too, Graham Edge, John Locke and Ray.

[@davidpost428]

I suggest their songs "Question" and "Your Wildest Dreams". All their songs take one on a journey.

[@RuthKing-wm9nw]

Also a thumbs up for the T-Mac jersey hanging up. Florida born and played for the Magic. I'm Miami born and raised so the Heat is my team...but you still pull for Magic!

[@michaelbueche6513]

It's true about the day, it doesn't matter it's always the same day it just gets dark

[@Zedness]

I think the guitar solo the person is referring to might be the one on 'I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band'. So many wonderful songs to check out: Question; New Horizons; Forever Autumn; The Actor; The story in your eyes; Driftwood. Might be easier to start with Days of Future Passed and work through all the albums!

[@georgemccormick4786]

Enjoyed your reaction.

[@MDreeezy]

Glad you enjoyed!!

[@ProdigyBowlersTour]

Perhaps you’d like to hear something by The Moody Blues a bit more up-tempo, even rock ‘n’ roll. Check out their song “The Story in Your Eyes.“ Or “Ride My See Saw.“ Or even “Question,” which has some pretty radical tempo and intensity changes in it. All are exceptional songs.

[@pamstuckey8349]

Totally need to agree! Get to see another side of The Moody Blues

[@druid1952]

Its fun when you hear it now, for your first time. However. it makes me relive my youth. I grew up on the oldies of today. I heard them as the came out new. Sometimes I just cant listen to them it hurts now. My friends of those days are dropping like flies. I'd rather not remember those days.

[@mfayant]

When you have the money, talent, and time to write a song from a famous band, you get, Tuesday Afternoon.

[@henryfechner2621]

This is the short version of the song. The long extended version of the song is 8 minutes and 20 seconds in length.

[@williamhughes1067]

I saw an interview with Justin Hayward a number of years ago in which he explained this song. He said it came about when he was hanging around on a Tuesday afternoon as he laid down in some grass and smoked a joint. It sounds like it ought to have a much deeper meaning than that, but this is what he said about the song's origin.

[@danavarner4022]

Great reaction!❤

[@MDreeezy]

Thank you!! 😁

[@charlesstraight5499]

From the higher realms , they call that being in the now moment or enjoying the now moment today , this moment period😊

[@signal12hvac]

great reaction! this song is part of one of the very first concept albums of which the Moodies did 7 in a row. to fully understand and appreciate this song, the album should be done end to end because it tells a story. Remember, groups like the Moodies who are the grandfathers of progressive rock sold millions upon millions of vinyl records off of store shelves long before there was a thing called the internet. how many groups today can do that?

[@danevans5823]

Your vision is 20-20. Stay vigilant in these cloudy times.The music was more pure 60 years ago. So was the climate on earth.Keep on seeking the truth and all else will come to you

[@ecbftl]

Always loved this mellow song, and the whole album. The band members look so young in the photos in the animation. Look and feel is so late 60's.

[@MDreeezy]

Haha they definitely did their thing.. the real deal. Its nice to have refreshing somgs like this to go back to

[@ecbftl]

@@MDreeezy These days I have been listening to newer bands in the metal genre that incorporate symphonic instrumentation, like the Moody Blues and others in Prog Rock did. Have you checked out Nightwish, or Epica?

[@SG-js2qn]

Yup, this was an era in which people felt encouraged to seek out nature in almost a mystical way, to get out of what they called the "rat race," and to find peace and contentment. This album came out in 1967, about five years before John Denver started to have his music about nature top the charts. In between, a lot of songs referenced nature in a positive way, and "getting back to nature" and being "more natural" was a part of the general youth / hippy / peace / spirituality movement.

[@ericj5627]

nice job ..This is a awesome album that needs to be heard in it's entirety, in order...Enjoy!

[@MDreeezy]

Thanks, will do!

Thanks. Good reaction. Keep it up! I subscribed.

Thanks for the sub! Welcome💙

This is about an acid trip's insights and inspirations on a typical Tuesday afternoon.

[@joehaller5155]

dig your appreciation of really great music. rare for someone your age. Do youself a favor and get some good headphones it really makes a difference. keep on keeping on.

[@dougwill8850]

Keep digging young man. Maybe try The Guess Who (a band) a song called These Eyes...Studio version is best. You make this old 58 year old very happy.

[@ziggy107]

you got it, enjoy the moment, even in the most unlikelist moments (have watched a lot of reactions to this video, and most people like it, but might not really 'get it'). In this case, his enjoyment of Tuesday Afternoon might have been enhanced a bit by some smoke or sacrament

[@kathleenhayes9320]

Music from my time. Best music was the 70s in my opinion. Thank you

[@Theoldonce]

REALLY the Moody Blues this is MY music (the old is my age not how long I've been a ONCE). I'm going to tell you a little secret you know WHY I stan Twice because unlike most reactors I don't hear the 80's or 90's or early 2000's in Twice music I hear THIS music they bring me home. To the other old farts here give Twice a chance and DON'T listen to the M/V listen to a B-side , that's what kids these day's call all the songs that aren't the Title track, kids right. Go with an open mind and appreciate the homage they pay to our music and yes there are NINE of them get over it enjoy the harmony and variety you will hear. Having said that their newest M/V is actually totally a western song it's called "I Got You" (no, no babe but a very little touch of yellow submarine lol). Remember when I told you slap vs whisper these guys whisper. Early Beatles and another stupid love song they whisper. Nice reaction guess I'll have more than Twice to listen too lol. OT9 forever (go watch Twice you'll understand).

[@MDreeezy]

Hahaha i got more twice reactions coming.. dony even worryb

I like the Moody Blues and this song, but I got something out of your interpretation. Tuesday afternoon is a time to celebrate being alive. BTW you realize this is a rift on Beatles songs?

They have 20 - 30 good songs ( find. Them )
