My Dad had a Hammond B3, and would play this song. I grew up hearing it. At 72 he hemorrhaged in our den in front of my 18 year or son and myself. He was considered a father to him. His eyes were wide open, but we couldn't get his attention. All blood went to stomach and I've never seen a white as pale as he was. He was breathing hard, and last breath was up in his throat so I could his his voice. He had a Leslie on organ and could play it exactly like group. He loved this song. Hard to believe how God works.
I an 70 and was lucky to have lived in Manchester UK as a student. In the 60's..mremember the jukebox playing this and thinking then...how beautiful and deep is this
A great song that never grows old...it transcends generations...I am over 80 years old and I am sitting here listening, attempting to remember when I first heard the song...sounds great now as I Listen.
I will NEVER grow tired of this magical song. I just love the Hammond organ. Where has the time gone? I remember hearing this on the radio many many moons ago. I am still mesmerised by Procol Harum 😍😊. From a 63 yo in the Netherlands ❤️🇳🇱😘
OHHH BRIGITTE,I AGREE, IM 66 USA🇺🇸 THIS GRABS MY HEART EVERY TIME I HEAR IT,,, MINI SKIRTS,,WHITE ANKLE BOOTS ,LONG STRAIGHT HAIR, IM OLD NOW,,, I WISH I HAD SLOWED DOWN AND ENJOYED MY YOUTH MORE,,,, SONGS LIKE THIS ONE WILL KEEP MY MINI SKIRT WEARING 16 YEAR OLD SELF, ALIVE ONLY IN MY MIND,,, ILL TAKE IT ❤️
A truly great classic rock band , there is no band that sounds like them, truly original. Sadly will probably never be in the rock hall even though their body of work ( solid albums) provides they deserve it. It's a joke that other non deserving groups who have not paid their dues are in.
…it brings forth the fondest of memories imaginable - foréver will. Truly a magnificent composition transcending time in the most important facets of Life, for which we are most sincerely blessed…RIP Gary.
This song reminds me of first dancing experience with a boy when I was a freshman. I stepped over his foot n so shy I couldn't look on his face. I was 20.
Passano gli anni, i decenni, ma questa " opera d'arte musicale" riesce sempre ad emozionare !!! Ed i Procol Harum non perdono il loro stile e la voce di Gary Broker lascia ancora a bocca aperta!!!
Something special and soul nurturing about this song. This music touches you as no other. 78 and especially love the Denmark orchestral addition to this song. Discovered this song late in life and listen often.
Desde la primera vez que la escuché en 1967 (tenía 13 años), y éste lindo video de Procom Harum es del 2017 osea celebran 50 años de su estreno; me encantó, expresa su melodía una profunda melancolía, tristeza, sufrimiento, dolor que nos estremece y conmueve todo nuestro ser.
Obra de arte, do tempo em que música tinha letra, harmonia, ritmo, métrica, enfim música em toda a extensão da palavra. Hoje somos obrigados a ouvir fank, sertanojo, punck e muitos outros lixos que em suas letras trazem palavrões, apologia às drogas e humilhações às mulheres.
We skipped the light fandango Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor I was feeling kinda seasick The crowd called out for more The room was humming harder As the ceiling flew away When we called out for another drink The waiter brought a tray And so it was that later As the miller told his tale That her face, at first just ghostly Turned a whiter shade of pale She said "there is no reason" And the truth is plain to see But I wandered through my playing cards Would not let her be One of sixteen vestal virgins Who were leaving for the coast And although my eyes were open They might have just as well've been closed And so it was that later As the miller told his tale That her face, at first just ghostly Turned a whiter shade of pale
Who said it was? There are so many ...... but pretty much coming out from that same era. Nonetheless, Whiter Shade remains not only the most iconic but also the song that put Procol Harum on the map. God knows how many other great bands are not remembered today, simply because they never had a great iconic song. Back to this 2017 concert. They played them all (Homburg, A Salty Dog, Conquistador etc etc) ..... Whiter Shade was missing and eventually became the encore. Unlike the other tracks, this time I held up my mobile till the end. Sadly my favourite one didn't make it.......... Repent Walpurgis ..... but overall was glad to have been there.
Canzoni indimenticabili eravamo tutti un po' spensierati però era bello cera un amicizia sincera ok se vado avanti mi viene una tristezza ok ciao ragazzi

Love this song very much…
Forever Procol Harum.The best Band..
In 60s me and pals always thought this song was written by someone on a high, but still, hit no.1 and fantastic lyrics.
This song reminds me of first dancing experience with a boy when I was a freshman. I stepped over his foot n so shy I couldn't look on his face. I was 20.
Passano gli anni, i decenni, ma questa " opera d'arte musicale" riesce sempre ad emozionare !!! Ed i Procol Harum non perdono il loro stile e la voce di Gary Broker lascia ancora a bocca aperta!!!

Live in Denmark 10 years ago was amazing with orchestra was amazing ,Gary was at his peak on that performance
Brilliant love it love gary
We skipped the light fandango
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
I was feeling kinda seasick
The crowd called out for more
The room was humming harder
As the ceiling flew away
When we called out for another drink
The waiter brought a tray
And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face, at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale
She said "there is no reason"
And the truth is plain to see
But I wandered through my playing cards
Would not let her be
One of sixteen vestal virgins
Who were leaving for the coast
And although my eyes were open
They might have just as well've been closed
And so it was that later
As the miller told his tale
That her face, at first just ghostly
Turned a whiter shade of pale
Passando um filme na minha cabeça! Eita tempo bom!
linda música inesquecível..dancei muitas vezes coladinho com a namorada essa música..vou fazer 57 ano e ainda curto ela.
PURA CALIDAD !!!♥️✔️
