This song means so much to me, not only because it is absolutely beautiful but also because it reminds me of my sister who I outlived. Nearly 5 years ago on Saturday, September 13th I went on a drive with my cousin. When I returned home, I was sat down by my mother and brother and told that my sis in law had died. She loved the fall (just like me) and she left us so soon. I'm still heartbroken. She would have turned 27 this November.
I grew up with this music....never really appreciated it. Saw the live production of it a while ago, and chose this song for my fathers funeral...i know he would have been proud. Miss u so much dad. xx
I lost my mum on september 9, 2011...she loved their music also...i got to see their concert on april 2 for my birthday...i love the outdoors...i saw two bluejays in my yard the other day and it made me think of justin and john! Spring....especially may... is my favorite time of the year...
What a phenomenal group. Such a wide range of songs.When the Moodys sang, it was unbelievable harmony..The addition of an orchestra at some concerts made them absolutely unbeatable..I salute Justin,Ray,Graeme and John..I have known them now for 40 yrs..they are still together and touring..
It really DOES seem like it's forever autumn at times...I defy anyone who has ever experienced any kind of loss not to tear up at least a little at this gorgeous song...and remain haunted by it.
MY, happy 60th birthday from earth to heaven. How I wish you were still around to celebrate this milestone birthday. It's summer now but my life is forever autumn, cos you are not here. Like the sun through the trees you came to love me, but now words fail to describe how much I miss you.
Loved this back in the brown and orange 70's when i was 10 ish, parents split in '80. - mum was my rock then, my best friend - 'forever autumn' was all i could muster to write on her grave side flowers after she lost her fight against cancer. Dad died too after we fell out of touch. It has been 21 years now, I'm older than she got, approaching his age too. I have my own family and have shook off most of the hurt but this song is so beautiful, emotive - bitter sweet. emotional time travel.
Autumn is when I lost my one and only true love. My Lady Barbra Rose -- I pray that you can hear this truly splendid tune from Heaven (your eternal home since Nov. 22, 2010). Only Heaven knows how I miss you. My love for you is always in season, Barbra. I love you beyond Time. Come back for me very very soon. I'll be waiting.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written, and what an incredible voice. It may sound naive, but you always hope that someone with a voice like this is a good person as well.
the song itself is beautiful, add justins fantastic voice ....and its perfect! i sent this to my partner to be , he fell inlove with it , and now he is gone, and my life will be forever autumn! rest in peace baby
A picturesque and awe inspiring day in the Lake District.The suns out,there is snow on the hill tops and the lakes look wonderful!Its not a surprise that so many of the worlds best poets and artists have come here for inspiration and subject!
Very heart wrenching. Sitting in on my own valentines night, playing online poker... My life will be forever autumn. I think I have something in my eye.
I always feel so very melancholy when I listen to " Forever Autumn", partly because it always reminds me of my walking hand in hand with my soulmate ,kicking our way through the golden gown of leaves.....my favourite time of year, my birth time,also. It tears me apart because I cannot be with him..... Oh the heartache.We have waited far too long This gorgeous lovesong sung by Justin could have been written for us.......coincidence or what !!!! Etermal love..... Angie.K. XXxxXX.
Raining here today after yesterdays glorious sunshine.I was sat out on the veranda,blind down,lastnight watching the wonderful sunset over the lake and fells having been for a long, restful walk during the day in the sunshine and I sourced some firewood!I'm glad I did with the rain today!The buds on the quince are growing daily and the denuded trees are slowly getting a new set of clothes.
My life is forever Autumn since my dad passed this was his favourite season i miss you dad rest in peace now with mum together forever until we all meet again god bless ❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
If the Lake District could remain Forever Autumn I would not complain,it is stunning!But then I love the Lake District in any of its four guises!Come and visit the most beautiful area in Britain!
usually I hate autumn, autumn reminded me of when I lost something very important, now listening to this song I remember him with love and peace in my soul ...
Amazing, a lot of heartfelt feelings and expressions here... There is a boundless energy full of love and bliss inside each of our hearts, find it, feel it, enjoy it. Peace and love to all my brothers and sisters everywhere
A truly moving song , am thinking of my beloved , adorable furry girl , lost my adorable ferret Miss Woolworth back in July to accidental death , love and miss her so much. It's not just people that leave a hole when they are taken from us.
This song was played at my dads funeral, its been 8 years since he passed but I miss him everyday and wonder what our relationship would be like now, since he was taken when I was only young, this is for you Dad! Mum and I love and miss you everyday! Take care of Izzy and we will meet agin soon! WE LOVE YOU! Rest in Peace Dad X
The thought of what happened yesterday still haunts everyone in this beautiful area,but life must go one and if I had to spend eternity wandering in exquisite surroundings the Lake District would be my perfect home!RIP!
I remember in my early 20s a young man I loved with all of my heart and he loved me..So many years and tears..we came in and out of each others life for so many years through good and bad times. Until finally we blew away, I will always remember you Rodney and hope you found the happiness we did to this song, our song. Love Tam
I played thsis song to my (now) ex boyfriend...it made him cry when he first heard it and he's not exactly the emtional type...it was so sweet. Every tuesday after (that was the day we met) for 5 years he sent me the youtube link for it :'( beautiful memories...I really miss you sweetheart... x
My angel ur not on ur own in this world I've lost a daughter and son yr apart their brother and myself arnt living we are just exsisting I feel ur pain xx
Flow I feel ur pain I've lost my daughter and son yr apart my other son missing them they are buried together on the headstone is my life will be forever autumn cause your not here xxx
parisvigrass...your Dad's music has made me feel happy since my early years listening to it in my bedroom. My wife and I have seen the Moody Blues many times...twice while she was pregnant...the babies rocked too. Our wedding had Nights in White Satin which was tought to get a Catholic church to do back in those days. Love and peace to you and your family...yours sure gave it to mine.
l went through Swindon, in Wiltshire, England, Justin's home town and then on a train, the M4 to Cheltenham to visit Brian Jones' gravesite in 2000. He was a original member and founder of the Rolling Stones...28 February 1943 - 3 July 1969. He owned the Cochford Farm Estate, former home of A.A. Millne, author of "Winnie the Pooh". It is beautiful, if you visit there, don't tell the owner you are there to visit Brian"s former estate...they will turn you away, rather, mention A.A.Millne, instead! I am proud to be a Moody Blues fan since 1965. Swindon should be so proud to have a shining star like Justin... October 14, 2016...Happy 70th Birthday, Jus!! On your headstone when it is your time, it should read..."Be ashamed to die until you have won some victory for humanity", by Horace Mann...Justin, you are the victory for mankind, already!!!! John Keating
Raining here today and the Lake District has never looked better!The woodlands have changed from brown hues to bright green foliage..beautiful!The Lake District welcomes all visitors so come and visit now!Further to one of my previous entries,I had fish and chips from Frydays,Kendal lastnight,fantastic!
I'm looking out of my window onto Lake Windermere in the Lake District in the UK and this song is a marvellous canvas to hang the view on and I'm going out now to collect firewood for tonight!Fantastic song!
This song brings back the memories of all the people who came and wen't through my life,were i wasn't ready to say good by,guess one just has to think of the good meaning full times together,and strive for more meaningful times with the ones who are still here.Maybe they will remember me when i'm not here.This song is so deep.
I was only 10 when i first heard this song I heard it on the record of the war of the worlds, i absolutely fell in love with this song, it makes me cry every time i hear it, i dont know if it is because it makes me think of my childhood days, life was so different when i was growing up to the present world . i am talking about 30 years ago. Sounds old to me, wow how time does fly.
Got a full house this weekend!Two daughters,son in laws and grandchildren coming down from Edinburgh to visit over the bank holiday!The weather forecast looks good so the Lakes will be a superb venue for the weekend and beyond!We look forward to seeing you all and you will be sure of a very warm welcome!
It's coming up to the 3rd anniversary of my wife's death, This was one of the 3 songs played at her funeral, it sums up my life completely. My 12 year old daughter always plays this on the jukebox in our local.
So many people think of there loved ones when hearing this song, the same is true for me, although he was a dog, my soul mate, he died in the autumn, I used to kick the golden gown and he used to chase the leaves. So much is appropriate for many people, my thoughts are with you all.
I loved War of the Worlds even when I was a child, a couple of years ago I saw the live performance of the music :) it's amazing. This song always stirs up emotions in me even though I have not lost many people in life yet (and I hope not to for a very long time!)
There is a beautiful sunset tonight over Windermere tonight,rolling red clouds heading north....stunning!Its going to be a cooler night with the sky clearing so a good night for sky watchers!Enjoy and RIP Sir Patrick Moore,God BlessYou!

One of the Best Love Songs , for those of us who have lost a Love-one , and can not FORGET them !!!!
I'm 55 years old and I've listened to every conceivable genre of music
and this has to be one of my favorite
Would love to hear your second and third favorites..but I agree, soo beautiful this is..
Now that's what I call (beautiful) music.
I grew up with this music....never really appreciated it. Saw the live production of it a while ago, and chose this song for my fathers funeral...i know he would have been proud. Miss u so much dad. xx
This was played at my granddad's funeral. He passed away 9th September 2012. R.I.P granddad. I will always love you.
The memory of your grandad will be with you forever...HE will be with you forever and especially at times when you really need him!
I lost my mum on september 9, 2011...she loved their music also...i got to see their concert on april 2 for my birthday...i love the outdoors...i saw two bluejays in my yard the other day and it made me think of justin and john! Spring....especially may... is my favorite time of the year...

Your so right
I have been loving this song since I was a teenager back in the 70's. A really great song.
MY, happy 60th birthday from earth to heaven. How I wish you were still around to celebrate this milestone birthday. It's summer now but my life is forever autumn, cos you are not here. Like the sun through the trees you came to love me, but now words fail to describe how much I miss you.

''.... you always loved this time of year... those fallen leaves lie undisturbed now'' at this point im nearly in tears
Beautiful song -one of my all time favourites, evoking powerful memories of my youth. Sung beautifully.
He has one of the most beautiful voices. Haunting quality. Gorgeous.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written, and what an incredible voice. It may sound naive, but you always hope that someone with a voice like this is a good person as well.
love this, was born in 78 and named after justin hayward, beautiful song!
A gentle rain falls softly on my weary eyes as if to hide a lonely tear...Beautiful.
Classic.in my top ten of tunes. I was 8 when this was released still love it.
This is my favorite-all-time tune.
-Rig Stig
One of the most haunting, wonderful melody's you could ever want to hear and taken form one of the best Albums ever!
the opening bars perfectly elicit the image of falling leaves.... what a mournful, forlorn and beautiful song this is....
the song itself is beautiful, add justins fantastic voice ....and its perfect!
i sent this to my partner to be , he fell inlove with it , and now he is gone, and my life will be forever autumn!

A picturesque and awe inspiring day in the Lake District.The suns out,there is snow on the hill tops and the lakes look wonderful!Its not a surprise that so many of the worlds best poets and artists have come here for inspiration and subject!
my dad chose this song for my mums funeral, no one could ever love anyone as much as he loved her... i hope she is at peace now. until we meet again
This is a truly beautiful song, Hayward' s plaintive vocals translate the emotion of the music perfectly.
Very heart wrenching. Sitting in on my own valentines night, playing online poker... My life will be forever autumn. I think I have something in my eye.
The trees are leafless,Windermere lake is like glass and there is snow on the fell tops!Beautiful if not a little chilly!
To my mum,who i lost in November 1981 when i was 11yrs old,miss you xx
I know how u feel Mandy I've lost my daughter and son x
I feel ur pain too long a story ur not on ur own x
Bless you all

Beautiful lyrics, beautiful music and excellent vocals. Absolute classic!
Arguably, the most beautiful song of the pop music era.
Evokes red and orange leaves blowing on the late autumn breeze, and the melancholy one feels that time of year.
Heard this track the year it came out , still my all time number one . SO many memories all my daughters now like it ! Thanks for memories . Mark
A truly moving song , am thinking of my beloved , adorable furry girl , lost my adorable ferret Miss Woolworth back in July to accidental death , love and miss her so much. It's not just people that leave a hole when they are taken from us.

First heard this in 1979 on LP as a kid. Beautiful song in the context of the full 'story' album. So beautiful and melancholic. Still makes my cry!
The most haunting, beautiful song.
Loved hearing this at War of the Worlds live in Birmingham last year.
Stunning !!

Justin sang this on the last two tours and it's simply captivating.
My son bought this a long time ago he passed in 2009 he bought war of the worlds for his dad the words are heartbreaking so true Beautifulxxxx

Justin still plays this song at many of the Moody Blues concerts, if you have never seen them play live then you have missed a real treat!
Just a great song tears at the strings of your heart if you have lost someone very dear

I start playing this song as autumn approaches. Great anthem for the best season of the year.
simply BEAUTIFUL
I like metal core, rock, indy, grunge, gothic metal but I could listen to this forever!!
As a young teen girl when this was released the romance of this song was irresistable...
'A gentle rain falls upon my weary eyes, as if to hide a lonely tear'... Beautiful.
fantastic song. always reminds me of my brother. god bless him.. thank u x
'The warm winds that embrace me just as surely touch your face' Beautiful!xxx

Love this song, really brings back memories of those good times.

This was a 'hit' in the charts when I met a couple of brothers.... :)
So many people think of there loved ones when hearing this song, the same is true for me, although he was a dog, my soul mate, he died in the autumn, I used to kick the golden gown and he used to chase the leaves. So much is appropriate for many people, my thoughts are with you all.
A brilliant gem. A masterwork from one of the world's great song-writer/singers. Heaven keep Justin and all of the Moodys.
a haunting classic that will never die really reminds me of been young
I loved War of the Worlds even when I was a child, a couple of years ago I saw the live performance of the music :) it's amazing. This song always stirs up emotions in me even though I have not lost many people in life yet (and I hope not to for a very long time!)
