Ah yes, even at his older age he has such crystal clear, emotional and fine vocals. What a perfect song it is and always will be.
I was quite surprised at how good he sounded at this age. I couldn't hear any flaws, if there were any.
Try to heat the interview he did with Larkin poe aften theres version off the song
My wife and I have seen the Moodies about 2 dozen times over the years. They are superb craftsman.
One thing I have noticed, unlike other bands, they have changed their arrangements to take into account their aging.
This was our 1st dance at our wedding reception on 26 June 1982, as it was our 1st slow dance during our 1st date on 11 February 1978. The cover band in 78 was Fox and Company. At our reception, it was a local band named Tom and Buddy.
"Cold hearted orb, that rules the night,
removes the colours from our sight:
Red is gray and yellow white.
But we decide which is right.
... and which is an illusion."
SO. GOOD.
Late Lament
Breathe deep the gathering gloom,
Watch lights fade from every room.
Bedsitter people look back and lament,
Another day’s useless energy 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 colours from our sight.
Red is grey and yellow white.
But we decide which is right.
And which is an illusion?
@@tylerbuckley4661 Yes, that poetry at the end of the recorded version. I remember the chill I got listening to it the first time. I was only 7 years old at the time, but was caught between chills and joy even at that young age. That wonder has never left me
I was around 7 when I heard this for the first time. Even as a child, this song touched me for some reason.
I must be old. I remember this being released and the impact it made on the radio. Still timeless.
We are old...lolol.
But lucky enough to have experienced it. I feel for the later generations that were not exposed to at least some of the good in the past..
Now I know why they're called "Moody Blues". This performance was like a rainbow of emotions.
Watching Beth's obvious joy reacting to music and musicians is one of the brightest spots on this site.
I love when the reactor allows the music to be the star. She's great at that.
@@gailtaylor1636yes!! Exactly my thoughts and why she’s my fav vocal coach -but also because she describes (better than any others I have found) WHY and WHAT it is that is so extraordinary about what we are hearing.
Thank you Beth 😍
The whole "Days of Future Passed" album is breathtaking. It's really a suite, and listening to it in order takes you through a complete journey.
The Moodies are one of the most Intelligent and Intelligible bands.
My favorite song on that album is “Legend of a Mind”. Don’t judge me. ;)
On the threshold of a dream is my favorite album
Yes it does I really miss the poetry at the end of this song
Good day@@tylerbuckley4661 Today I had delivered to our home the New Released Days of future Passed - My Sojourn A reissue by John Lodge. My wife surprised me with this. Its amazing, as a musician myself, The Moody's in all stages are and will be my Favorite group. I suggest if you can get a copy, Buy it! She bought a Red - Gold copy. Married 49 yesterday, looks she knows me well... Thanks for letting me share, have seen them 11 times back to 1979 I was a kid. Be well everyone!
His voice hasn't changed in fifty years. The orchestral arrangement is from the original album version of the song, from the 60s. This was the birth of progressive rock.
On Days Of Future Passed the orchestral arrangements were only between the songs. It was the band playing with a Mellotron on Nights and all the other songs.
I was thinking that his voice hasn’t really changed and yet his singing is richer and more subtle. He has such amazing control over every syllable and every change of timbre or volume.
Days of Future Passed is the second album and first concept album by English prog rock band The Moody Blues, released in November 1967 by Deram Records. With its fusion of orchestral and rock elements, it has been cited as one of the first examples of progressive rock.
The album was recorded at a time when the Moody Blues were suffering financial difficulties and lack of critical and commercial success. Their parent label, Decca Records offered them a chance to record a stereo LP that combined their music with orchestral interludes. They decided to compose a suite of songs about the life of everyday man, with the group and orchestra mostly playing separately and mixed together. It was a moderate success upon release, but following steady radio airplay, particularly of the hit single "Nights in White Satin", it became a top ten US hit in 1972. It has since been critically praised as one of the best albums of its time.
@@MyBohemianDreams
Actually Decca wanted them to record a rock version of Dvorak's New World Symphony , they kind of pulled as fast one. They were at a crossroads, they started out doing blues but realized it wasn't them. On the album they had a pickup orchestra doing the symphonic stuff between songs but also in the songs themselves. On tour they used a mellotron, that used loops of music to recreate the sound ( this was before synthesizers came out of the lab) of instruments. It was a flaky beast, MB had an advantage , Mike pinder the keyboard player had worked for the company that produced it, so he could fix it, something it needed a lot of.
If you ever want to hear this done w a real orchestra see the Red Rocks video,spectacular ( Colorado symphony was the orchestra).
The music arrangement was done by a guy called Peter Knight.
❤
Ms. Beth Roars your reacting to music and musicians is endearing. I am a fan of Moody Blues for fifty years and I see a similar sensitivity in you. How one can't love you?
So refreshing to see someone reviewing on here who actually knows something about music and gives an intelligent review rather than the so many that just show their ignorance every time they speak.
Keep up the good work
Such a majestic song, made all the more stunning when you realize Hayward wrote it as a teenager. Just a toweringly emotional and intimate work of art.
Yes indeed
George Michael wrote the sax run on Never gonna dance again at 16...Gregg Allman wrote Sweet Melissa at 17... Johnny Lang wrote Lie to me at 17...Steve Winwood wrote Gimme some loving at 17.…Mozart wrote his first song at 5..Lol
@@vincentwhitley1119 And? Other than Mozart, who operated on a completely different level musically than possibly any other human being to ever live, the rest are great tunes but not like Nights in White Satin. And this is coming from a huge ABB and Winwood fan.
Big thanks to my Dad for giving me my love of such a wide range of music. Love some moody blues ❤️
The orchestral arrangement is on the album version as well. One of the brilliant aspects of Days of Future Passed is the fluid transitions between rock songs and orchestral interludes throughout the album. I think you would enjoy it.
Just coming in to mention this. "Days of Future Passed" is definitely worth sitting through in its entirety.
The hybrid of orchestral and rock music is, no doubt, a forerunner of symphonic metal, a genre I have come to love even as I approach the end of my 70th decade.
Old folks like me aren't supposed to like Metal are they...
Including the connection of the final poem back to the opening poem signifying the repeating cycle of each day leading to the next.
@@geoffreyjackson3309 yeah, and the gong playing backwards too
@@oxigenarian9763 hehe don't you mean SEVENTH decade? a "70th decade" would mean you're 700 years old.. Don't mind me, I'm 71 myself and LOVE the Moody Blues..
Just like the first time we heard this piece on the album. "What the Hell did we just Hear ?!?!?!?!?!" Never, EVER, gets old !!
One of the finest song writers, guitarits and vocalists of all time, love you Justin
I just discovered him, and moody blues, and I agree! Btw, what an amazing song! 🎉
One of the many things I LOVE about the Moody Blues is how they just do their part. Very relaxed and smooth!!!! They may be for the most part gray haired these days, BUT they are masters of their professions. MASTERS!!!!!!!
When I was 4 years old I BEGGED and I mean BEGGED my dad to take me to see the Moody Blues at the Hollywood Bowl. Maaaaaaaaaan I will never ever forget that night as long as I live.
I saw them there around 93 or 94, with the L.A. Philharmonic. Wonder if it was the same concert.
Justin Hayward has a phenomenal voice - but I will always remember him singing on the original "War of the Worlds" musical from Jeff Wayne - "Forever Autumn" is one of my all time favourite pieces of music.
Yay another fan!!!
It's one of mine too. I was 13 and in hospital for months in 1978. Mu uncle taped War of the Worlds for me. I fell in love with Forever Autumn and still love it some 40+ years later.
Yes! Absolutely yes. A beautiful, haunting song. I first heard this song in high school during a radio airing of the album. I instantly fell in love with it. Please react to it.
I always loved the sad beauty of that song.
Another classic.
Sometimes I feel sorry for younger people. This was the music of our youth in the 70s. Listening to the Moody Blues, Procol Harum, Jethro Tull, Emerson, Lake and Palmer, Yes and so many other bands that understood music and were on the radio all the time. We've seen the progression of this into symphonic metal with bands like Nightwish, Epica, and Dream Theater, but the originals were so new and different. Thank you Beth for listening to and analyzing such wonderful music.
This is the same music I listened to in the early 1970's. Most of my friends had no idea about the Moody Blues and I loved them. Still do after all these years. Their music was and is so dynamic.
The most original band of all time. I fell in love with them in the early 70’s and I still love them now. I never tire of hearing their songs.
One of my favorite parts of this classical song & performance is how they allow the music to move us. No explosions, no fire, no naked female dancers, just raw talent. PLUS the orchestra makes so much difference!! All of the frequencies and sounds are covered!!! They just do their job & play their parts!!
"What you want to be, you will be in the end!" Truth...... It is shocking that Justin wrote this when he was 19. The Moody Blues are one of my favorite a;; time rock bands!! They are so darn good!!!!! Was this GREAT or what???? Bravo...... Thanks girl!!!!
As a metalhead I have always enjoyed the Moody Blues. Their songs always have an atmosphere to them.
🤘💜
What about ELO?
It's amazing to watch someone teach you the cold hard facts about singing techniques and getting full emotional over the beauty of a song all within a 10 minute vid 😻
There are only a few reaction channels that achieve both those things and Beth Roars is definitely one of the best for that.
Justin's voice/singing is different from everyone else's, and you did a great job of explaining how he sings. He's got a crying sound that matches the crying of his guitar playing. He's one of the greatest melodic songwriters of the rock era.
So many masterpieces were created in the 70's from bands like the Moody Blues who took rock-n-roll to a different level. Would love to hear Beth's thoughts on YES, Close to the Edge - another masterpiece.
It was from 1967
I first heard the Moodies in 1968. I was blown away, as I was by the group Chicago and Blood, Sweat and Tears. The orchestral sound, the horns. WOW! I did a hitch in the USMC, and had myself together in 1973, upon my discharge. Saw the Moodies in 1974. Saw them again in 1977 and 1980. All the concerts were, as you noticed, heralded by the audience being silent as they performed. It was magical. Still is. Music such as they made will never grow tired or get old. Neither will it ever be composed to their level again. I am so pleased to have grown in an era which had such marvelous musicians. Thank you for your review.
Justin Hayward is 54 in this performance in 2000, 33 years after the song was first released in 1967. If you are curious check out his belt on "...love you..." in 2018, where at the age of 72 he can still hit the notes at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame live performance.
This was my grandpa's favorite band. I miss him! RIP grandpa!
Wow. This and Whiter Shade of Pearl are on of my mom's favorite songs. I heard the original all the time when I was growing up he's still got it!
Beth,
Was that ending powerful or WHAT???? That part brings me to tears often... One of my ALL time favorite groups!!!
Beth's seamless integration of her analysis and passion for the art always makes for a fascinating and informative journey through a song or about an artist.
I believe he was in his 60s for this concert. Certainly late 50s. Pretty good to be able to sing that well. Some of his phrasing is to accommodate the strains in his vocal instrument. Great review, Beth. I saw them in Toronto in the 80s. When they did this song, there was a 5 min standing o. They were so stunned they didn’t know how to react. It was a memorable moment.
Justin was 53 here.
DON'T FIGHT IT MISS B! JUSTIN HAS YOU UNDER HIS SPELL!
This is such a beautiful song, and he sings it so wonderfully. This music is from another era, hopefully we find our way back to it one day.
Beth,
The crescendo that leads to the last section is enough to reduce you to tears of joy. The Moody Blues music has made me cry several times. Yes, I love it that much!!!! Bye for now girl, until the next time........
Danced to this at Prom in 1973 with my soon to be girlfriend. Notable as this is the only time I ever danced, which makes it all the more memorable. So, this makes this song all the more special to me. Thanks, Beth for reacting to this.
I wished Beth could have seen the Moody Blues in the 70's. If she thinks this is special! I been a fan for ever. Even was at The Red Rocks for the live album recording.
Our prom was themed on "Dawning is the Day". Another great Moodies song.
This is my favourite song of all time. Listen to the original off of Days of Future Passed. Make sure it is the long version with the Late Lament at the end. Unfortunately, we just lost Graeme Edge a few weeks ago.
Maybe I missed your mention but
John Lodge the bass player was hitting the stratosphere falsetto backs on this that actually give it the full push on just the right words.
As he did in many of there most popular songs ……just an amazing musician
The bass lines really pushed the song through to the end - the interplay between the flute and bass was magnificent. Peter Knigh did the arrangement.
Hello Beth, thanks for this! I will never tire of this song! (Partly due to its beauty, timelessness, but mostly as its my wedding song!)
I take it you have never heard the complete album Days Of Future Passed? That version already has the orchestration (as do many other songs on it). It's pure magic! It's an album that can always & immediately improve my mood. Basically, it's a day in the life...starting at dawn, going through morning, afternoon, evening then night (this song). One of the earliest examples of rock & orchestra melded together.
I was 9 years old when that album was released. It gave me chills and watery eyes then, and still does to this day, 54 years later. One of the great pleasures in my concert-going life has been to see Justin Hayward perform that live this past year.
I've loved this masterpiece since I was just a wee lad. It wasn't until later that I learned that John Lodge was one of many of my musical birthday brothers. So many great musicians born on that day.
Fangirl Beth is back in the house! I love seeing her anticipation and reaction to what is coming up and going on. It's so pure and authentic please keep it up!
His voice hasn't weakened with age. It's still as pure as it ever was.
I have listened to this song for close to 50 years now and it never grows old. Such a timeless and amazing composition. This was one of the first pieces I had heard as a youngster blending an orchestra with rock and probably paved the way for groups like ELO that I adore as well. This is why I love Queensryche, Silent Lucidity so much. I especially love the swelling strings as Justin belts Yes I love you, Oh how I love you! Just a classic that brings me to my knees every time. Thank you Beth for reacting to this classic🥰❤🤘
I went to see them at the Hollywood bowl for the 50th anniversary of the release of the album. It was the whole album with a full orchestra. I have been listening to them my whole life and took my teenage kids there to see the show. They were blown away by the music.
“This is 70’s, but I love it”. Of course you do, my generation had the best music ever. 60’s 70’s 80’s.
Justin Heyward has such a beautiful voice. To write a song like this, at age 19, is remarkable. Forever Autumn is also just a fantastic song.
Hayward
Wow! I am a 50 year fan of The Moodies. I attended their concert with the Long Island Philharmonic Orchestra outdoors at the Jones Beach Theatre, a venue situated in the bay which made the atmosphere insanely appros pos to this music, it lended an eerie mist to the show. Have seen them probably 50 other times as well. I absolutely loved your reaction to this masterpiece, and am happy this music can appeal to a younger, musically educated audience. This was actually how the song was recorded on the Days of Future Past album, with an orchestra and was the first merger of rock and roll with classical music. What you may or may not know is Justin used to let off a rip at the end of Nights when they played it without the orchestra, I highly recommend you see that. The man was, and still is, in his 70's, a brilliant singer/songwriter, and guitarist and has one of the most pleasant voices in music history. Whenever you hear him, it is soothing to the ear and spirit and will bring a smile to your face. Thanks for that reaction, I loved it. Cheers!
My favourite group! I discovered them in 1968. In search of the lost chord was an ear opening for me.
I must be old... I remember "Go Now!" as a single.
Justin never thought he had that good of a voice. But when these guys sang songs I could understand the words. They became one of my favorites since 1968, and even before Justin and John were brought into group. He has earned much deserved awards for this and others he created.
This is the first live version I've heard in a long time. I grew up listening to this when MBs were regularly heard on the radio.
As you describe how he sings it, I am reminded that it was sung that way to be a self-reflection piece, intimate and tender; a song you surrender your emotions to...
Moody Blues played a 2 hour free concert in Elysian Park in Los Angeles auturmn 1969 -- "The trees are calling me, I've got to find out why."
This has been my favorite song ever since hearing it on late night radio in the 70's. It still gets me every time; his vocals , the bass, the mellotron and the dramatic orchestral arrangement. What an incredibly deep "mood" it creates.
Definitely a song that gives me goosebumps
Justin Hayward is from Swindon, I have a friend that lives there, Justin wrote the song In Your Wildest Dreams about a lover (unknown) from Swindon, on his return he admits you can never return.. To your childhood neighborhood, he never said exactly who it was he was trying to connect with but it was obviously a deep relationship, one that inspired Justin to the lyrics of letters written never meaning to send then receiving a delivery of White Satin Sheets... He obviously had a deep love.. Peace
Thank you for your analysis of Nights in White satin. One of my all time favorite songs and Moodys albums. So many memories tied to this music makes me well up with emotion. You are right nothing like an orchestra! Thanks for the escape from reality. 🎼
One of my absolute favorite songs of all time.
I grew up on Days of Future Passed, so I'm used to the amazing orchestral score - it was the first combination of rock and orchestral ever, as far as I know. I was a bit surprised it didn't go into that final poem - "Breathe deep the gathering gloom..." If you've not listened to the album, Beth, you owe it to yourself! :-)
It is called Late Lament
The album Days of Future Passed came out in 1967 (not the mentioned 1970's) and was done with the London Festival Orchestra. As a progressive rock group, the Moody Blues pushed the boundaries and this was no exception. They wrapped a concept album up with integrating a full orchestra into every aspect of the album. The album has no beginning nor end. Start anywhere and you'll come back to that starting point.
I was born 30 years (yes, THIRTY) after the release of Days of Future Past, but thanks to my mother, I got to experience this absolutely breathtaking piece of musical craftsmanship at a very young age. The Moody Blues have a very special place in my heart, and this song is, to me, the crème de la crème of their catalogue.
Absolutely LOVE the orchestration on this song. Outstandingly beautiful. Makes one want to weep.
This song has calmed me down any time I have heard it, from my teen years to now. It is no longer my favorite style, but it still hits my heart.
Beth,
The music of the Moody Blues lends itself to a full orchestra. This is lovely. So well done!!! All of the frequencies are covered and so full.. The ending builds to a climax that is over whelming!!! The strings take the part of Mr. Mike Pinder's mellotron. One of the many things I love & enjoy about these classic groups is how relaxed they are. No need for a lot of show and such. They calmly do their jobs. But then again, 50 plus years of experience and endless times performed would make it easier. I loved your reaction per usual...... Thank YOU pretty lady!!!!!!!!! TAKE CARE..................
With an older, classically trained sister (piano, violin), I always loved the MB's symphonic infusion. But they could also rock with the best of them.
The original album "Days of Future Passed" features orchestral backing throughout the entire album. It is a classic of popular music and well worth checking out the entire record.
One of the greatest songs of all time !
Beth,
I love to talk and listen to music. This is one of my all time favorite bands -- PERIOD!!! They are so darn good. They are SO laid back. Just watch and listen & you'll see and hear what I am referring to. this full orchestra makes such a BIG difference. Justin is such a talent ---- You mentioned some of it he writes, performs, a man of many talents & skills!!!! AND he has a daughter. She may have attended university here in the states...!!! What an arrangement!!!!! Talent............
Moody Blues , one of the Better Groups of the late 69's early 70's . All of their songs together are part of their story
" In Search of The Lost Chord "
This was my Mom's favorite song pf all time. We danced to this at my wedding. . I was in a white satin tux so it really fit. I got to take her to see them with the orchestra and she loved every second of it. Great to have those memories since she is no longer with us.
Listen to the whole album called “This is the Moody Blues”. To this day is my favorite!
He's decades older with this live performance and still pulls it off!. Please listen to the studio recording of the 60's. R.I.P. Ray & Graeme.
I played flute for 6 years in school. That was over 40 years ago now, but when he started on those high notes I felt my jaw tighten as if I was trying to squeeze them out myself. This is such a great song and performance.
Your face flushed and for a moment I thought you might cry. It was that powerful......... Thanks girl
Like you say, he has this crystal clear delivery, every word is easy to hear. I remember this when I was a kid and a teenager. And it seems to me that Justin Hayward’s voice is if anything more rich and various, has more, well, moods to it. The voice itself is incredibly unchanged in sweetness and power - yet he seems to have many more tones or moods in his voice, from “hard” or wailing to velvety soft. A lot of subtle emotional changes. My god, I am in my sixth decade and he even LOOKS the same.
I never tire of this song. I heard it back in 1972 and love it still. I've heard it play on movies. Such a sad, sad song. Justin says when someone breaks up with another still in love, that it is like going through a death...a mourning. He was going through a breakup and had met someone else who had given him white, Satin sheets. With being in love, he saw things he had never seen before. When he was younger and singing this song, he sounded like he was close to tears....that beautiful, haunting voice. I still attend his gigs when he tours the USA each year. The Moodies were known for the pipe being in their songs. He thinks the flute and guitar are magic together.
Would not even be allowed to be performed today. Rock with orchestra, Justin's voice is another spiritual dimension. Written in the 60's but became a hit in 1972. My friends and I got stoned many times to this song❤ and took off for other dimensions of ecstasy. The most haunting melody from a decade of hypnotic, haunting music. Miss it so much.
He sounds exactly the same as he did in the 1960's. THIS IS FROM 23 YEARS AGO AND SEVERAL OF THE GUYS HERE HAVE PASSED AWAY. Not bad for a guy in his sixties EH ?
Beth you are the best. Your reactions are so emotinal that it seams the tunes enter in your sole! Congratulations for your excelent channel. Greetings from Brazil!
Beth,
My favorite section begins around 9:something! This orchestra is SO darn good. They take this masterpiece of a song and explode it into our brains. I'm amazed that Justin wrote this at 19 years old. He and this song are a gift to humankind!!!!! I stayed dry eyed this time, just barely......... It is wonderful, such power & emotion!!! Until the next time!!!!! Thank you beautiful.
Mike B.
He’s 40-is here wrote this at 19, sang at 20. He’s still belting it out at 73. His range could go lower when younger. Look for a solo live show where he wails at the end. Amazing. Justin is from Swindon from a middle class family. His parents were teachers.
One of the most fantastic songs of all time. I have very fond memories of this song from many, many years ago. I don't want covers, only the original will do.
I love how you enjoyed this song so much. Your spirit was alive and welcoming.
No matter how many times I hear this song I still get goosebumps...
Beth,
You are going to LOVE this!! An orchestra fits in with most of their music! Justin wrote this masterpiece when he was 19 years old!!! But you already knew that, I sometimes forget how smart you are. The strings are great in this arrangement!!! As is the entire song...... As always thank you for your input. You are GREAT!!!!! Your eyes stayed dry!!!
Saw them in a great venue probably 25 years ago. Chills went up and down my spine when Justin was singing Nights in White Satin. One of the most memorable concerts of my life.
From the 1960s until today, the music of the Moody Blues is one-of-a-kind. Sure, they were early pioneers of progressive rock and, yes, they were some of the first, if not the first, to introduce philosophy into rock. And yet they stood alone. They were essentially a genre of music all their own.
Great reaction! Thank you for sharing when Justin wrote this song, and what it is about. It's the first time I heard that! This was one of my favorite Moody Blues songs while I was in the U.S. Air Force in the late 60s/early 70s, back when vinyl records were popular. I often wondered what the "Knights in white sat in." (just kidding) 😄
Haywood played multiple instruments, and was instrumental in both writing for the orchestra, and melding orchestra with rock. This orchestration is from their 1970's recording. An amazing talent.
This is Justin Hayward singing and he sounds even better than he did in 1967. My 45 rpm single I ran right out and bought in 1967 as soon as I heard Knights In White Satin on the radio here in the US and it still plays perfectly. I was 18 and so in love with Justin Hayward as was most of the gals at that time. Glad your reacting to them. The flute player is Ray Thomas who passed away in 2018 at his home in England.. R.I.P Ray. Miss your beautiful flute.
These guys have been around since the 1960s. One of the best musical groups EVER!
Maybe, just maybe the greatest masterpiece of music ever written and sung. Always is incredible!
Enjoying your reaction to an absolute masterpiece of music.
Moody Blues at Red Rocks was a terrific concert ....sad some are gone now but the music always sounds awesome forever !
Had the privilege to see the Moody blues twice live....sensational memories🎶👍
I saw them in concert in early 80's.......pretty much at their peak, a great concert.........
Amazing album. If memory serves he wrote this in high school. My dad’s favorite. I have listened to this band literally my whole life. Saw them in concert in the 80s. They were incredible. True artists.
That was straight of the original album! Orchestra I mean. Its fantastic and the Moody Blues are too.
Yes, the album had the heaviest orchestration of any "rock" or "pop" album of it's time, but then the Moody Blues were quite progressive and the classical elements they incorporated were simply stunning.
The Moody Blues are just brilliant. Back to when musicians actually had talent...
Watching this reaction, especially the orchestral ending, gave me chills, like hearing this for the first time when I was...12? In other words, wonderful!
Thanks for covering one of the great make out songs of my college years! Truly beautiful music unlike anything popular today. Be well, Beth.
