This is the radio edit, the full version has a big orchestra ending, with a reading of Late Lament, a poem written by the drummer, Graeme Edge, who sadly died very recently. You should check out Question next.
Definitely. Has to be listened with that incredible ending.
I agree I saw them in concert about 10 years ago it was Graeme Edge's 69th birthday and I was probably the only 20 year old. My dad played them forever and I grew to love them. Their sound is so unique and truly beyond their time. Lyrics are so poetic and cerebral. If that makes sense. ❤️
Yes check out "Question", it will take you for a ride. Another awesome, unique song..
Yes I wish more people would do the longer version because I love that poem. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The lead singer wrote this when he was 19 years old. That was a full orchestra you were hearing. Even if you don't do a YT reaction, you should listen to the album version or a live performance, because you didn't hear the orchestra outro. Also, in the album version there's a spoken word poem called "Late Lament" recited during the outro.
No, it isn't a full orchestra. Only the Mellotron is used in this single edit.
There's a live version they did about 10 years ago that will blow you away. Full orchestra and Justin's voice still sounds amazing.
Yep.
AND the proper amount of bass... viva la bass!
The Royal Albert Hall video was from a performance in 2000. A great live version . No strings in this version you just listened to, just Mike Pinder and his mellotron.
Amen!
I would listen to the full length album track first. This is the truncated single version.
This was filmed in Paris in 1967. It's like a psychedelic time capsule.
And no traffic.
The sound you are referring to in the chours, is a mellotron. Its what gives the moodies their haunting and mystical quality! In a way, it was an analog version of a synthesizer. It used tape reels of recorded instruments.
Chod, their "The Story in Your Eyes" and "Your Wildest Dreams" are next for you!!
That 'violin' is actually a mellotron, a keyboard that can mimic an orchestra. Those were the days. Beautiful song, great band. "Story In Your Eyes" is another great song by them.
There's a pretty recent version of them doing this live and they still sing and play every bit as well as they do here.
The Moody Blues are my all-time favourite band. The 'orchestra' sound on this version is in fact the work of Moodies keyboard player Mike Pinder. He is using (and is the master of) an instrument called the Mellotron which was the analogue forerunner of modern synths.
You're a name from the past, Mal! I hope you're well. Chris (H&H)
Chod, you REALLY need to listen to the album version which includes full orchestra and the spoken word poem entitled Late Lament. It puts the song in a completely different light and will effect you and Dee even more. ❤️🔥
I couldn't agree more.
Even if you don't react to it, at least do yourselves a favor and listen to that whole album. It's amazing what could be done with music back then.
💯%
I forgot about the poem before. It's great
Breathe deep the gathering gloom
Watch lights fade from every room
Bed sitter people look back and lament
Another days 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 colors from our sight
Red is gray and yellow white
But we decide which is right
And which is an illusion
@@mikemaricle9941, remember, the album then loops around with the reverse gong and Morning Glory to open:
Cold-hearted orb that rules the night,
Removes the colors from our sight,
Red is gray and yellow white,
But we decide which is right,
And which is an illusion.
Pinprick holes in a colorless sky,
Let insipid figures of light pass by,
The mighty light of ten thousand suns,
Challenges infinity and is soon gone.
Nighttime, to some a brief interlude,
To others the fear of solitude.
Brave Helios, wake up your steeds,
Bring the warmth the countryside needs.
There are so many wonderful Moody Blues songs, this is probably one that a lot of people love the most. It's an absolute classic, and it still sounds just as good today!
I love seeing a young couple like you appreciating good music.
You owe it to yourself to listen/react to the entire album, called Days of Future Past, that this song is part of. It's really meant to be heard as part of that concept album. Also, yes, you heard violins, because the Moody Blues recorded the song and that entire album with the London Symphony Orchestra. Seriously. Check out the album in its entirety.
Not the LSO, but a group of session musicians brought in. For the album only, they were called the London Festival Orchestra--not really an existing orchestra.
You should listen to the album begining to end..it's a concept album that chronicles parts of the day bearing the name of the parts of the Day (afternoon-tuesday afternoon, evening, Night- nights in white satin) etc. Gives a Different perspective
This is one of those songs which is best listened to with your eyes closed.
One of the most beautiful songs ever
The hauntingly beautiful orchestral backing sound you are hearing is actually Mike Pinder's Mellotron along with backing vocal harmonies from the group. Justin Hayward is the songwriter, guitarist and lead singer. Also John Lodge on bass, Ray Thomas on flute (RIP 2018) and Graeme Edge on drums (RIP 2021). This song was part of their1967 concept album "Days of Future Passed" which portrayed the various parts of a day. including "Dawn is a Feeling", "Tuesday Afternoon", "Evening Time To Get Away", etc. The band played their original songs and the London Festival Orchestra played the interludes between the songs. Pretty groundbreaking record, especially for that era. The Moody Blues were finally inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2018. Well deserved and long overdue. Cheers to you both.
Classic Moodys. One of their best!😱💙
Hauntingly beautiful.
Nights In White Satin comes from the album Days of Future Passed. The album starts with early morning and goes through a 24 hour day. You must listen to the album from the beginning to the end.
The most beautiful rock song ever written 😎❤️☮️✌️🕊️😘
This is an eyes closed, headphones on type of song, for a first listen. The video was probably a bit of a distraction but I saw you both react when the harmonies came in! Iconic!
Wow, what voices! Sent shivers down my spine. I was about sixteen when this came out and it still is one of my favorites.
Just think, this song and video are 55 years old!! The singer/guitarist is Justin Hayward and he was only 21 when The Moody Blues recorded "Nights in White Satin!" My 3rd favorite band! 💙💙💙
This is another one of those songs that doesn’t need a video.
I wish that you'd watch it live with the orchestra. It moved me to tears. I've loved the Moody Blues since their first album, decades ago.
Live the Moody Blues is such a powerful experience, a rock band with a full orchestra backing them. I am so happy I was born at the right time and got to experience so many amazing artists live. Spring and summer going to 1 or 2 concerts every weekend.
Have to listen and the full version to get the full effect.
A couple decades ago they were coming to our town and, unfortunately, my buddy and I couldn’t get tickets. Instead, we got word that The Spectrum (Philly) was looking for extra security to .. work .. the .. front!
Who needs tickets when you get paid to watch the band that you’re doing security for?
Great night 😎👏
What a memory to take!
I have had the pleasure playing the flute solo on this a handful of times over the years. Definitely check out the album version this.
The Moody Blues, Jethro Tull and Marshall Tucker Band are the only groups I can think of who successfully incorporated a flute regularly into Rock songs. LEGEND OF A MIND, TUESDAY AFTERNOON, and RIDE MY SEE-SAW come to mind.
Good reaction, the question is what was so magical about the mid 60s to early 80s WHY so much diversity, so much great music 🎶 Glad I was ther to enjoy, sweet memories but a little sad.
Thanks for the music from Moody Blues! A good song from the Flower Power Beat era 1967 .
They have a longer version of that song and at the end a man does a beautiful poem. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
This song is from the album Days of Future Passed. 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 band worked with record producer Tony Clarke, engineer Derek Varnals, and conductor Peter Knight. The group recorded and mixed their sessions first, then passed the finished tapes over to Knight for arranging and recording the orchestral interludes. I feel that Peter Knight made a huge contribution to the sound and success of the album. He became famous for his rich lush orchestration for The Moody Blues' Days of Future Passed, most widely known through the single Nights in White Satin.
You have to experience that orchestrated epic ending. I suggest the whole version with the spoken poetry,
Moody Blues made some beautiful music back in the day. This is one of their greatest masterpieces. Saw them live in the 80’s and it was wonderful 🌺✌️
Gotta hear the whole thing.
I grew up listening to this group & they are one of my favorites from the 60's-80's. They have had so many hit songs. Love their mix of rock with classical music. They have a sound like no other band. The Moody Blues' most successful singles include "Go Now", "Nights in White Satin", "Tuesday Afternoon", "Question", "Gemini Dream", "The Voice" & "Your Wildest Dreams". But all of their music is great.
That background instrument you mentioned is a keyboard called a mellotron. The Moody Blues used that one quite a bit. Justin sings stronger in this early studio version. He was much younger then. But the orchestra live is fantastic.
Echoing others below to say that the live version from a bout a decade or so ago is definitely worth a listen! Thanks for your reactions!
The first time I heard this song was in 1968, in a bar in Toulon France. I was in the U.S. Navy. We pulled in there for the weekend.
The ending part of the album “Days of Future Passed" is stunning and brilliant. From a poem 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?
The extraordinary vulnerability of Justin Hayward's vocal on this cannot be repeated, even by him, because the moment is gone. But a teenager in love may totally believe the world is ending somewhat if they can't figure out their emotions. That, I would say, is the legacy of this song.
Captures the energy of the 60s so well
And you can't adequately explain/describe the 60's, you had to experience it.
Tuesday Afternoon is my favourite song of theirs. Good to get wifey into good music 👍
That song by the Moody Blues Night's In White Satin came out in 1967 along with the video of the song.
I just saw this on another video live from recently and I swear it's even better. He had a haunting voice when he was young and it just gets better and better as he ages.
The Moody Blues are a British legend 🇬🇧
Awwww, You should have reviewed the Nights In White at Royal Albert Hall, with the full symphony. It gives the full representation of what the Moody's were like.
Another one that I love by then is, I'm just a singer in a rock and roll band. It's a different side of them and it is so full of energy and great vocals and great bass and drumming and it's so catchy.
Amazing song...so timeless.I listened to this back in 1969 for the first time and still is as hauntingly beautiful now as it was years ago.
Justin Hayward wrote this song in high school for a girl he was in love with but too shy to tell. The Moody Blues recorded it as the last part of the classic ‘Days Of Future Passed’ album in 1967, and it became an international hit. A mutual friend told the girl, Ann Marie Guirron, that it had been written about her, she asked Justin if it was true, and he confirmed it. They have been married since 1970.
There's a live video of them being older and performing this video in it's entirety. They did it perfectly, I think it's really worth watching, it'll blow your mind! I remember watching it on PBS, it was a special called The Moody Blues (20 years later), honestly, I didn't really think they could pull it off, boy, was I wrong! This song is a classic gem of The Moody Blues, thanks for the video reaction!
Try the while Days of Future Past album some morning front to back. This is the conclusion of a romantic, fun, day long story about being happy and in love. It's amazing.
This is my FAv version thank you for reacting to it!!
We will not judge you my dear, you are just beginning on a voyage that I (at 65) am still on. Let the music take you where it will.
Chod, here's one for you both to react to.
Boogie Pilgrim by Elton John
It's from an album called Blue Moves that few actually have delved into, which is a shame... The hit from the album is Tonight
He will take you both to church.
Wishing you both well...
That aging Canadian walking his dog here at sunset in Portugal.
" you and me " Land of make believe " " Just a singer in a rock n roll band " Driftwood "............all brilliant
The boys look a little 'dorky' in their suits with ruffles but after all it is 1967 and they had just put together a concept album, 'Days of Future Passed', with full orchestra and in Stereo! It is often cited as the start of 'Progressive Rock' and Justin Hayward, although young at the time, is in a fine melancholic voice underpinned by Mike Pinder's Mellotron, Ray Davies' Flute, Graham Edge's percussion and John Lodge's bass. A classic song that never grows old.
The singer/guitarist here is Justin Heywood who had some solo success. You should try his song, Forever Autumn. This comes from the War of The Worlds musical and is quite powerful. I think you would both enjoy it.
Back then there were no "music videos" as there are now. Bands would record "promotional films" or put out a video of them performing on a TV show. One of my favorite "promotional films" is Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen.
Another missed opportunity. Late Lament is missing.
Nobody ever does the album version. Sad.
Hauntingly gets into the soul
This is the shorter version. The longer version is even better ! 💯
British Invasion my teen years. Loved their music.
Scenes from Paris in better days than now.
Brilliant. You get it.
You might like "A Simple Game" written by the mellotron player Mike Pinder and released by The Four Tops in 1972. Great performance by the Tops and still carries some of that Moodies vibe.
The long version with the poem puts a cap on the song. Check it out.
THAT IS MUSIC
They wrote this song, including the orchestral parts in the "extended" version, when they were in their late teens or
early 20's. Amazing talent.
One of my favorite Moody Blues songs and I was lucky to see them in concert
Days of Future Passed is one of those rare perfect albums. You would not regret listening to the whole thing.
Guys, this song came out in the middle 60's. There was no possible way for them to do a music video on the level that you're thinking of.
This version is great, but the extend version with full orchestra and the poem at the end,
is outstanding.
Check it out 👍
the album version, off their album "Days of Future Passed" is the absolute best. This song was not released as a single until 1972, although it was on an earlier album. Tons of good songs. Some of later works are just as good: The Voice, Once upon a Time, and I know you're out there are great ones too.
You should see their video doing this live with an orchestra.
Fyi this is the short version of this song The Long version includes poetry and also the band is backed by the London symphony Orcasstra.
This is a masterpiece. In the 60s I don't recall seeing this video. Try "Question" by them.
Chad, the strings you here re from a Mellotron. It was a signature part of their sound and was a constant in their music throughout their first 7 albums.
Moody Blues: In Your Wildest Dreams Justin Hayward (Lead Guitar and Singer Songwriter here): Forever Autumn
I think this was a hit 3 different years.
I have loved this song for ever. Another dramatic song that I like is "Vienna" by Ultravox.
Oh WOW You have to listen the Long version of Nights In White Satin.
Love the haunting melody of this song. His voice almost goes into a yodel like Delores Rearden...classic
breath deep the gathering gloom watch lights fading from every room
Can't help feeling you would both have a more immersive and immediate experience with headphones... some bands bring so much to the table you need headphones to get it all. As also with Supertramp.
When this was released,there was no such thing as videos,these were promotional trailers for a particular song,sometimes at the pictures (cinema).
You are right Chod,the music spoke for itself,we didn’t need images to distract from the music.
Man,I thank God I was a teen in the 60’s,young man in the 70’s.
The concerts and parties !!
We were never at home,there was ALWAYS something going on involving music.
That gentle giant shirt is so good
as stated, the original full studio version is the way to go!
Chod, if you haven’t yet, listen to “I’m just a singer in a rock n roll band” (Moody Blues). Make sure to listen to the studio release version - it is EXCELLENT. Great work you’re doing, btw.
Thx! Love the Moody blues! Today’s music has a lot of bells & whistles so to speak. Yesterday’s music had decorations!
Not complete without The late Lament
That strange instrument you hear is the Mellotron.
Paris, 1967. Like a dream.
Sorry guys, but you stopped it before the ending. The ending starts with, Breath deep the gathering gloom. Watch lights fade from every room. There’s more than these two sentences so please listen to it again all the way through. Enjoy your channel a lot!
You are referring to the song after Nights called Late Lament which are usually played together.
No he didn't stop it, its not there, this is the shortened version for the radio at the time.
The full version is there with all the other versions he chose the shortest, don't know why..
You need to play the original full version it has a full orchestra it will blow you both away
Moody Blues-For My Lady
If my musical memory serves me correctly (and that is not a sure thing anymore), that is the performance from the final mix for the album, the master tape or a direct copy and they were lip syncing it for the video. Not a bad thing since they were the actual performers in the studio along with a full symphonic orchestra performing the charts. The conductor did a great job keeping things together, sort of a concerto grosso with a prog rock band for the soloists. That was pretty much a new thing when this album was made.
Nice one. That was violin btw. Amazing live. Saw them in the late 90's and they were still fantastic
