    Thank you Moody Blues for such a Beautiful and Wonderful inspiring song!
    Thanks to EssentialDegnities for Helping me with the direction! :)
    Won't you take me back to school?
    I need to learn the golden rule.
    Won't you lay it on the line?
    I need to hear it just one more time.
    Oh, won't you tell me again?
    Oh, can you feel it?
    Oh, won't you tell me again tonight?
    Each and every heart it seems,
    Is bounded by a world of dreams.
    Each and every rising sun,
    Is greeted by a lonely one.
    Oh, won't you tell me again?
    Oh, can you feel it?
    Oh, won't you tell me again tonight?
    Cause out on the ocean of life my love.
    There a so many storms we must rise above.
    Can you hear the spirit calling, as it's carried across the waves?
    You're already falling it's calling you back to face the music.
    And the song that is coming through.
    You're already falling the one that it's calling is you.
    My a promise take a vow.
    And trust your feelings it easy now.
    Understand The Voice within.
    And feel a change already beginning.
    Oh, won't you tell me again?
    Oh, can you feel it?
    Oh, won't you tell me again tonight? Tonight?
    Oh, won't you tell me again?
    Oh, can you feel it?
    Oh, won't you tell me again tonight?
    And how many words have I got to say?
    And how many times will it be this way?
    With your arms around the future and your back up against the past.
    You're already falling it's calling you on to face the music.
    And the song that is coming through.
    You're already falling the one that it's calling is you.
    Each and every heart it seems,
    Is bounded by a world of dreams.
    Each and every rising sun,
    Is greeted by, a lonely, lonely one.
    Won't you tell me again?
    Oh, can you feel it?
    Oh, won't you tell me again tonight?

    This song makes tears swell up in my eyes.
    My wonderful wife, the woman who gave me the will to go through life, in spite of my physical pain from military service, is still with me in the flesh. But this Angel, now exhibits serious early onset dementia in the areas of: language, judgement, memory, and personality. She does not deserve such a cruel ravaging brain disease! Her behavior is more and more like that of an 11 year old or even a 5 year old child. Its often very difficult and frustrating being with her. But, her most satisfactory fulfilments in the past, as my woman in all her capacities, deserves my future service to her.

      They weren't underrated in my younger days! They were so Amazing, so Celestial, so full of Emeth (Truth) and Sooo Loved! Concerts and MUSIC I will REMEMBER and LOVE FOREVER! Since I have studied for decades and few people on this Earth know about the existence of the most ancient manuscripts - I will share part of this Knowledge of Emeth that I have been so blessed to study. I Know they will still be making beautiful music in The World to Come - Music is huge and so loved there - in the Heavenly Realms according to ancient manuscripts which are Billions of years old and predate all man-made belief systems/religions.
      There is no such thing as "religion" in the Heavenly Realms - All - Myriads of Celestial Beings from the Angelic Orders to so many more - Do not "believe" - they simply KNOW of the Knowledge of Emeth (Truth) - it is a simple KNOWING/UNDERSTANDING of and DEEPLY PROFOUND REVERENCE for EMETH - and they simply call it EMETH.
      Seek Chadosh Eashoa Yeshua Emmanuel Christ Moshiach Vau Emeth (Truth) and you will find too and you will understand where we are going soon enough. It's such an Amazing Wondrous World to Come - The Holy (Celestial, Divine, Eternal) Kingdom of Worlds inside of which is Our New Home - Our New Earth - Chadosh Malkhuto Binah - for All who are of KIND HEART! Forever Stand Firm in The Light of Truth - Emeth 💖

    I was just watching the Moraz-vs-Moodies lawsuit from 1993 on RUclips and learned that, despite not getting any songwriting credit on this song, Patrick Moraz wrote the opening intro (first 28 seconds or so) and needed a couple days to convince Justin Hayward to include it. I can't honestly imagine The Voice without that opening intro written by Moraz.

    First heard this soulful and poignant masterpiece on the way to my college orientation weekend for the first time, in the backseat of my folk's car, a young 17 years old. It seemed even then to be prescient, capturing the melancholy and hope I was feeling all in one place, and I really listened intently. I actually remember thinking, at that moment, the lyrics were good advice and would probably be prescient. I'd never been away for more than a weekend, never to camp, not successful at attempts at team sports, so not very socialized among peers. As much as I wanted to take off and "fly," I knew there were serious confidence challenges in me and out there facing me, including b/c of the sometimes traumatic way I was raised. I knew it would be a struggle for a long time, and it was -- though in many ways 35 years later, a lot has been overcome and there have been some notable successes. BUT, always a struggle, large and small, with every situation and relationship. Again, it felt like the song recognized this and provided much-needed encouragement. It still speaks to me powerfully, in both recognition and in hope. Thank you Moody Blues!

    Great song. As a Christian I feel a whole range of emotions and the lyrics can relate to my beliefs; the "voice within" could be the Holy Spirit that guides us, every rising sun is another chance to change for the better, learning the "Golden Rule" etc. But ANYONE can relate to enduring the 'storms' of life, and facing the future, with "your back up against the past." Can we just agree it is a great song with wonderful music and lyrics? And like every song, the meaning is different to each person.

    I heard this song on the way back from a family trip to Colorado prior to HS. At the time, I didn't know the artist or title, but that was the last I heard the song until nearly graduating from HS. I couldn't describe it to anybody who knew and was afraid I was never going to hear it again. I had always remembered hearing the song for the first time while on the way home from the hospital after breaking my leg, which I had long-thought was 1980. I heard the song in a video back in 1993, and soon after, I discovered it was released in 1981 which meant I either broke my leg a year later or my memory was faulty. Than just last week, I discovered an old statement from the hospital showing my admittance date was 18 July 1981 and my discharge date was 20 July. The voice was released as a single on 22 July, which would have been 2 days too late however, it was released on an album on 15 May and my father listened to an album rock station at the time, thus I'm sure they knew it would soon be released as a single. There's also a possibility it could have played on the way home after I got my cast took off, but I don't think so. But if so, the song peaked on 15 August, which would have been very close. It was certainly peaking during the period. And though I love the song, It's so strange that it became the definitive song that takes me back to that incident. I was only 4 years old.

    One of a few songs that takes me back with startling specificity to a dusty time and place that otherwise may have only remained a progressively vague memory. I was 12 years old in '81, and was finally able to break ranks with my broken home and begin brand new critical explorations that come only with 'unsupervised' evening outings and friends. It's been so long I've all but forgotten the emotions and discoveries that came along this wonderful path known as adolescence. Thanks to MB I can really "FEEL IT again" & I love 'em for that.

    Yet another great song from Justin & Co. that doesn't offend. This song continually haunts my sub conscience...and has for years since it came out. Lodge and Edge keep up just fine and have been at it too, for some time. These are very seasoned musicians here. You can't put a finger on them. First instinct is to compare. But they don't sound like anybody else. One's mind might drift towards Tull, Crimson, Zeppelin, Queen, and dozens of other bands. They are unique and have what every band strives to achieve: their OWN sound.

    • @tullfan7872
      @tullfan7872 7 лет назад

      All the great bands are unique. There's an elegance and effortlessness in the music and the melody in Moody Blues songs that makes them so special. The songs just seem to shimmer and mystically hover in the ether.

      I thought I was the only one whose subconscious is haunted by this song. I think it's the innocence and passion inherent in both the music and lyrics. You must be over the age of 55. I think that generation is the last to have those together before the world became irrevocably jaded.

    Won't you take me back to school
    I need to learn the golden rule
    Won't you lay it on the line
    I need to hear it just one more time
    Oh oh won't you tell me again
    Oh oh can you feel it
    Oh oh won't you tell me again
    Tonight
    Each and every heart it seems
    Is bounded by a world of dreams
    Each and every rising sun
    Is greeted by a lonely one
    Oh oh won't you tell me again
    Oh oh can you feel it
    Oh oh won't you tell me again
    Tonight, tonight
    'Cos out on the ocean of life my love
    There's so many storms we must rise above
    Can you hear the spirit calling
    As it's carried across the waves
    You're already falling
    It's calling you back to face the music
    And the song that is coming through
    You're already falling
    The one that it's calling is you
    Make a promise take a vow
    And trust your feelings it's easy now
    Understand the voice within
    And feel the change already beginning
    Whoa oh won't you tell me again
    Oh oh can you feel it
    Oh oh won't you tell me again
    Tonight
    Oh oh won't you tell me again
    Oh oh can you feel it
    Oh oh won't you tell me again
    Tonight, tonight
    And how many words have I got to say
    And how many times will it be this way
    With your arms around the future
    And your back up against the past
    You're already falling it's calling you
    On to face the music
    And the song that is coming through
    You're already falling
    The one that it's calling is you
    Each and every heart it seems
    Is bounded by a world of dreams
    Each and every rising sun
    Is greeted by a lonely lonely one
    Won't you tell me again
    Oh can you feel it
    Oh oh won't you tell me again
    Tonight
    Oh won't you tell me again
    Oh oh can you feel it
    Oh oh won't you tell me again
    Tonight, tonight
    Oh oh can you feel it
    Oh oh won't you tell me again
    Tonight

      Some hack in the NME gave it and the Moody Blues as a whole a really,nasty shitty review,I thought he was just some trendy poser bending to whatever the latest fashion was instead of caring about music. They had one or two at the time who seemed to hate everything that wasn't disco as well. Confirmed for me my decision not to set any store by what most of the reviewers said.

I had the melody in my head and had to focus for a good amount of time to discern a lyric "oh oh.....blah blah blah it again" was all I could muster. I knew it was the sound of the Moody Blues. After a google search I heard it was called the voice. Clairaudience as it most surprising.

It was at a point in my life that was filled with anxiety and this song was just an escape, it is so.. cerebral for lack of a better word. The music itself is so upbeat and quick tempo-ed but the singing just kinda gets to that point of you that is hurting and is like "there is only this right now" on a side note it's awesome to learn of another band that had such a big infl. on prog. rock

    Nice to see a video that combines Moody Blues music with science fiction and a love of the universe, kinda like it was meant to be. Each and every heart, it seems, is bonded by a world of dreams. How true indeed, but only if we have the courage to see how those dreams can unite us. God, whatever God you believe in, is the loving force which can still unite us, penetrate us and bind the Galaxy together.
