The greatest singer/songwriter of my age. Perhaps of all ages. Justin lives and breathes his music. He sings and plays from the soul...I thank God for for Justin Hayward...for making my life so much brighter in a sometimes cold, dark, uncertain world.
I have had the pleasure of having the Moody blues change my Outlook on life. 6 concerts. Two with Atlanta synophny there as well. Ranging from 1990 to the 50th anniversary at St Augustine. So happy they finally made it to the rock n roll Hall of Fame. thanks guys well done!
I've heard this song probably thousands of time since 1996. I never get tired of hearing it. I must say this one is another masterpiece by Justin Hayward.
Whenever you listen to the Moody Blues, you just know there has to be a god! This track is one of the finest songs Justin has ever written and recorded.
Only just recently heard this song. I'm 53 amd 10 yrs ago my life became a do over. My life has been richer and full of love and I'm learning so much with my many losses and new beginnings. This song takes you through your life and all its emotions. I hope one day, when I'm gone from this earth that these words will comfort those who knew and loved me. Till then it comforts me and gives me hope of a long enriched life. Peace and love to you all.
I've been listening to Justin and the Moody Blues forever, but Justin is my favourite and all his solo albums too. I bought two copies of moving mountains in case the first copy wore out!
I TRULY FEEL US MOODY BLUES/JUSTIN HAYWARD fans are of a kindred spirit. he is the soundtrack of our lives. his music and our love for it is non partisan, color blind, never gender specific. i conceived all my children with his music playing softly. when i met my husband first thing he said is "we have nothing in common if you are not a moody blues fan"
A legend for eternity! I am so glad to have lived through a time with the moodiness and their music throughout my life! I introduced the Moodies to my mom when I was introduced to their music by my 8th grade English literature teacher in 1979. Their music has been my go to during stressful days. All that stress just melts away while listening to them.
I continue to be touch and moved over and over for 30 years by this man. His message of loves certainty gives hope and light to a weary world. I am so thankful.
Hayward is the Leonardo Da Vinci Of music. How the hell does he continually come up with songs that make you well up with emotion? No other artist except for maybe Jon Anderson has managed to do this to me. This song brings me to tears from the first verse. A truly gifted human being.
Justin is a true artist and a poet... He has such a beautiful voice, like angel's singing.... He sings of my teen years so many feelings of warmth and love.... You are the most gifted ✍️✍️✍️ writer, ever!!!! I am listening to you everyday.... 💙💙💙... 🌹🌹🌹...
I have followed the Moody Blues since the early years and have every album they have recorded and now have the complete Justin Hayward collection on cd. One of the worlds greatest son writers . His music is timeless.
My very first boyfriend turned me on to The Moody Blues in 1970...every time I hear them, I am back there with him, laughing, being teenagers and in love. (he passed away in 1979) so this makes them even more special to me.
Going to see him in London tomorrow evening at the Union Chapel and I really hope he sings this beautiful and haunting song! I love it..xx Update: He did sing it and the entire set was wonderful, including talking to the lovely Julie afterwards. xxx
@@wiliamrolls7834 since I have never met you, nor do I subscribe to your channel, none of your business! Geez, you can't even comment on your favorite artist's video without some guy trying to get in there, grow up Loser!
I believe this has to be the most beautiful song in the entire world. Nothing has ever touched my heart like this song and it is indescribable the feelings it brings. Thanks RetroLisa for your beautiful video. It's lovely!
A world without Justin Hayward, Leonard Cohen or Roger Waters is not a world in which I want to live. Tell me who will hold our dreams when they are gone. Who will care about fighting injustice and cruelty with the beauty of words? Who will make us cry and feel in a world of computer screens?
I have all Justin's solo albums as well as all the Moody's albums. This song is his best one...bar none. It always rips my heart out. So much beauty and sadness. Thank you Justin for all the beautiful music. You are immortal.
A friend's brother turned me onto them in 1970. I had to have every album after hearing them. I'd babysit to earn money. I had all the core seven before 10'th grade. Their music brought my husband and me together. I could not believe that they were his favorite too. That sealed the deal with my heart.
1972 for me too. I used to hide my radio (with earphones) under the bed sheets and wouldn't go to sleep until Radio Luxembourg played Isn't Life Strange
Since my last post I haven't been able to stop listening to this song! It has stirred my love for Justin Haywards genius, which I've known since they started, and at this moment in my life this song speaks to me loud and clear. Such a tender love song set to such a haunting melody - :'-( I end up in tears every time I listen to it but then tears are healing aren't they. Many thanks to Retrolisa for this gift.♥.
I think its passion and the gift he always has, even touring still for the fans around the world with the Moody`s shows how much he cares , the music will always live on!
Somewhere there's children playing, somewhere far away Running with open arms to greet me I feel so much emotion when he sings that - sadly gorgeous song - one of his best
The Moody Blues are my favourite band, but Justin has always been my favourite Moody, in my opinion the best songwriter, singer/guitarist on the planet. I have all his solo albums and every song is pure magic. Broken Dream is my favourite song of all-time, not just from Justin, from anyone in the universe.
Justin allows himself to be vulnerable....and its beautiful...been a fan since beginning of 70's.. what a beautiful human being...We are so fortunate to be able to share what is in his heart...his soul...
Very sentimental song-the guitar and Hayward's voice are so soothing,that you are at peace with yourself.I wish the Moody Blues era would return-they were one of the best progressive rock bands of the 20th century!
This has got to be one of the five best songs of all time. The fact that Justin Hayward is involved should surprise no one. Excellent video. Excellence all around.
Another wonderful song from an Icon singer and song writer.Never get tired of his voice.Moody Blues will live on long after we all lived our Dreams along with our favorite bands.🥰💕❤️
Omg what a voice and what lovely man Justin is too such romantic music I just love love love along with all his beautiful videos of sunsets etc wow xx ❤
Wonderful video Lisa. I am still touched by the Moodies and Justin keeps creating, writing and performing. He and his comrades and their music have made me enjoy their music over 50 years...and still counting. I only wish he, John and Graham would get together again. Miss you Ray.
Justin Hayward you nailed it with this solo song, Equal to Nights in White Satin with its beautiful voice, lyrics and tones of enthralling melodious musicality of guitar riffs and flute...I love this song so much 💖 I can relate to its words of sadness, disappointment and remorse, grief and scorn with its murmers of life not giving its all with lessened perfection of giving way to tears, stumbling along life's path and maturity with lost memories and forgotten connections of love, embraced with touching moments that fade with time in the sunset of our lives with fragmented and Broken dreams. This is a great video portraying this beautiful song 💖🎵🎵🎸thankyou and did anyone notice there is a heartbeat in the beat of this song of Justin Haywards genius 💕
still going strong at 72, guitar playing still top notch and adding carmen as floutist to go along with mike and julie just adds to the experience. homage to his lost buddy Ray.
I am glad!!! I knew you would love it!!! Justin Hayward is my favorite singer/songwriter. His guitar playing is amazing. He is also a member of The Moody Blues whom I've seen dozens of times in concert!
I have always loved the 1975 album "the Blue Jays" as Hayward was the composer of all of the best of the Moody Blues....had a musical hiatus in my life and I just learned of this 1996 album....I must have it!!! the voice, the lush instrumentals....it takes me back to a much simpler time in my life when I still thought everything was new, bright and shiny
Justin, you are the vision in my life. I could not be the person I am without you. I wish you could know the journey I have been on and all the things you mean to me. Thank you
I have been a Moodies fan since 1968, and have been in love with Justin for all that time. I have only just discovered this song. It is possibly the most gorgeous song he's ever written. Justin sings with such emotion. Not a day goes by when I don't have the Moodies playing. I feel privileged to have seen them live several times, and also Justin, with Mile and Julie. Fab!!!!!!
Such a stunningly gorgeous song, saw Justin do this in San Juan Capistrano when he did his solo tour for View. I've always wished he would've gone on TV and promoted this cd, all he had to do was go on Leno and sing this and Way of the World and the album would've been a smash and received the recognition it deserved. But we all know how special it was. I love singing this song, such a beautiful vocal.
At this stage of my life I seek solice in music! I have stopped seeking the love I so wanted. Beautiful song that speaks to this heart of mine! Love Justin Hayward
My friend, who was Janis Joplin's friend and road manager, and who passed away years ago, used to say that there's a market out there for everyone. Maybe you shouldn't give up. I've never had any luck, outside of one short and brief affair, but I keep one eye open!!

The greatest singer/songwriter of my age. Perhaps of all ages. Justin lives and breathes his music. He sings and plays from the soul...I thank God for for Justin Hayward...for making my life so much brighter in a sometimes cold, dark, uncertain world.

There will never be another person like you. Your a gift from God. How blessed are we all to have been able to hear you play.

Yes Justin is a musical gift! Amen...
He is amazing. Beautiful song.
Absolutely ! Lots of wonderful songwriters out there, but not many on the level of Justin Hayward !
This man is a genius, followed the moodies all my life , he just gets better
Justin Hayward is undoubtedly one of the world's finest songwriters. His songs are timeless.
The melody and arrangement of this song is pure genius
I've heard this song probably thousands of time since 1996. I never get tired of hearing it. I must say this one is another masterpiece by Justin Hayward.
I have too. I never tire of his voice. this is a truly beautiful song.
❤ one of the most haunting melodies, with so many heartfelt words . Beautiful ❤️
Whenever you listen to the Moody Blues, you just know there has to be a god! This track is one of the finest songs Justin has ever written and recorded.
You are spot on! Yes - they sang heavenly and beautiful songs - unsurpassed
One of the world’s greatest songwriters.
Indeed he is....
Justin is such a special gift to all of us!
People write out the words which is nice but Justin always sings so clean you know what he saying. Love this mans music
Rarely do I not get a word. Rarely
Only just recently heard this song. I'm 53 amd 10 yrs ago my life became a do over. My life has been richer and full of love and I'm learning so much with my many losses and new beginnings. This song takes you through your life and all its emotions. I hope one day, when I'm gone from this earth that these words will comfort those who knew and loved me.

I feel the same way.
Very well said.
I consider this a master piece. Turn on the loop and while I sleep away in the night never to wake up. Thanks for this amazingly sung song.
🙏🙏🙏😇🤗💞
This beautiful heart breaking song is a masterpiece on every possible level.
Utterly beautiful song. Wonderful voice and video.
How can 7 people not like this?
insane, eh?
justaskinbag Probably X factor or Justin Beiber fans- very poor taste indeed
They probably didn't like it, because it made them cry.
This Is A Masterpiece The Music Is Perfect And The Song Is So Beautiful And A Good Video
Love it Justin...your words touch my soul. 10/23
The most beautiful song ever. The whoe record is perfect. Thank you Justin.
My favorite composer and song writer. From the Moody Blues to now; his brilliance continues.
Thank you for keeping hope alive in many. 💗😇
been listening to him (moody blues) since the 60's i need say no more
I've been listening to Justin and the Moody Blues forever, but Justin is my favourite and all his solo albums too. I bought two copies of moving mountains in case the first copy wore out!
I was fortunate enough to see them in concert at the Baltimore Civic center in 1971! PHENOMENAL!
I TRULY FEEL US MOODY BLUES/JUSTIN HAYWARD fans are of a kindred spirit. he is the soundtrack of our lives. his music and our love for it is non partisan, color blind, never gender specific.
i conceived all my children with his music playing softly.
when i met my husband first thing he said is "we have nothing in common if you are not a moody blues fan"
AMEN!
I'm only now digesting all of Justin's solo work. I'm helplessly addicted. This song brings me to tears. Damnit!
I don't know how many times I've said Thats the most beautiful song Justin ever wrote! How much I love his stories he tells of love.
Seriously beautiful, Justin! You're still the man!
JUST BEAUTIFUL!!!
A legend for eternity! I am so glad to have lived through a time with the moodiness and their music throughout my life!
I introduced the Moodies to my mom when I was introduced to their music by my 8th grade English literature teacher in 1979.
Their music has been my go to during stressful days. All that stress just melts away while listening to them.
I continue to be touch and moved over and over for 30 years by this man.
His message of loves certainty gives hope and light to a weary world. I am so thankful.
So beautiful, warm loving thought"s, a true legend...🥀🥀🥀...
An absolutely fabulous song, as is many, many of their songs over the years. One of my favorite groups.
Love moody blues I adore Justin Hayward music thank u it’s so beautiful
I can't think of a sadder or more beautiful song...ever. If you aren't moved by this...then you haven't lived long enough or hard enough.
Hayward is the Leonardo Da Vinci Of music. How the hell does he continually come up with songs that make you well up with emotion? No other artist except for maybe Jon Anderson has managed to do this to me. This song brings me to tears from the first verse. A truly gifted human being.
Beautiful song. Justin Hayward is a talented song writer.
Justin is one of my favorite singers since the early 70's
yes along with early Greg Lake! Such angelic voices!
ANOTHER HEAVENLY SONG...
BRILLIANT....🙏😇💞🇬🇧
Justin is gift from heaven , his music help me to heal me when I need the most, back in 2016
Hello friend, how are you doing today?
We are all from heaven,we just have to shine..
Beautiful song Justin has an amazing talent for writing & singing amazing songs, I listen to him every day.
J'ai l'âge de Justin. Je me lasse pas d'écouter ses merveilleuses chansons depuis 50 ans....
salut l'artiste !

Makes me almost cry every time I hear this song.

Wonderful song. As so many Justin 'songs.
I had the great honor to meet him, in Monaco.
He's very friendly, and very charismatic.
Classic Justin Hayward. Such a beautiful song
Only justin can compose such a perfect song
Justin has penned some of the most beautiful love songs ever. This one now just knocks me down since my wife and I have separated.
I believe this has to be the most beautiful song in the entire world. Nothing has ever touched my heart like this song and it is indescribable the feelings it brings. Thanks RetroLisa for your beautiful video. It's lovely!
Hey friend, you cool?
I love this song, such a beautiful voice and song words, the guitar....... pure bliss to listen to.
Once again Justin plays guitar with precise control,no flourishing where less is more; a very gifted individual.
Singularly, one of Justin's best songs of his entire catalog.
A world without Justin Hayward, Leonard Cohen or Roger Waters is not a world in which I want to live. Tell me who will hold our dreams when they are gone. Who will care about fighting injustice and cruelty with the beauty of words? Who will make us cry and feel in a world of computer screens?
Never get tired of listening to to Justin Hayward, or all the band.So sad Graeme Edge has been gone a year.Ray 3 years.The best band.
I have all Justin's solo albums as well as all the Moody's albums. This song is his best one...bar none. It always rips my heart out. So much beauty and sadness. Thank you Justin for all the beautiful music. You are immortal.
I do too. I listen to all of them.
This is one of the most beautiful songs i have ever heard, tears are running from my eyes everytime im listening to it.
Karen turned me on to the Moody Blues in 1972 , it feels like 1972 when I listen to them any time
Same with
me, I was only 16 years old in 1972 when "Seventh Sojourn" was released,
and will always be one of my absolute favorite Moody Blues albums.
A friend's brother turned me onto them in 1970. I had to have every album after hearing them. I'd babysit to earn money. I had all the core seven before 10'th grade.

New for me, singer and song. Incredible guitar track. I wish our church had people who could play like that. Thanks, RUclips.
unbelievable how does he keep doing it
I think its passion and the gift he always has, even touring still for the fans around the world with the Moody`s shows how much he cares , the music will always live on!
Always loved Justins work!
My favorite song. A masterpiece.
Sublime, emotional, beautiful song. One of his very best ever !
Man! That's great!!!
Somewhere there's children playing, somewhere far away
Running with open arms to greet me
I feel so much emotion when he sings that - sadly gorgeous song - one of his best
agreed Patti - and there are so many to choose from!

My wife and I were not able to have kids so that line is by far the one that rips my heart out the most. His best song....by far.
Man, this is so beautiful!

Awesome lp that, have it now on cd and enjoy it thoroughly...
Justin, you are the vision in my life. I could not be the person I am without you. I wish you could know the journey I have been on and all the things you mean to me. Thank you
lovely sentiment, he is an absolute genius

Poignant, bittersweet, but pretty! One of my favorite Justin songs.

Justin's best of the best solo ("View From the Hill") efforts. Nothing but pure unadulterated magic.
