      don't know if you were there for the 80s or not but yes you hit the nail on the head. I know shit wasn't perfect back then either. I remember the bomb drills and all that back in the early 80s at school. Now its active shooter drills. Which to me is a lot scarier than bomb drills. The things happening today are things they made horror movies about in the 80s

I am 63 now and too old to try again. These two ladies helped me to have wonderful memories of my past full of love fun and happiness Gods gift to me if only for a little while, all of the Moody's songs have meaning for me and maybe a hope for the future, Thanks Moody's.

    When I first saw this video, I was 19 years old and my life was practically in shambles. My mother was on her death bed. She passed way a few moths later in September 1987. My father had suffered mild stroke. He pretty much recovered but he passed on in 1995. I had flunked out of college and felt that I was headed toward a life of disaster. However, it was something about his video that awakened something in me and I was able to take charge of my life. I eventually went back to school graduated. Went on to graduate school , earned a Ph.D. and became a college professor. I am 52 years old and a tenured full professor with numerous publications and a very distinguished career. God definitely intervened. Just goes to show , you never know how life can or will turn out!

      I instinctively hate later Moody Blues work, because so much of it is terrible. Not this. This is really good. You have to be careful with Sur la Mer and Keys of the Kingdom, because there's not a lot of good content in this period. But what you do find is really good. The sound of this song definitely makes you think of Sur la Mer, but it has its own value.

    I was named after Justin Hayward. My dad loved this band. He died about 5 years ago. Before he passed, I asked him to let me know if he “made it there.”
    He died at 8:04 am March 12. That night, I woke up from the most vivid dream, bawling my eyes out. My dad, looking much younger, was knelt down, listening to our old stereo system. This song was playing, dad looked at me and sang, I wonder where you are, I wonder if you think about me? Once upon a time in your wildest dreams.
    He let me know he made it. I love you dad.

    I ran a concert trucking company in the early 90's. We trucked a summer tour with both the Moodies and Chicago, while many bands have ego issues, when the discussion began about who was the headliner and who was the opening act, the bands solver the problem by trading the headline and opening act position every other night. Both bands are class acts.

I had married and had kids. Bennie had not married but he was still chasing his music dreams. We kept in touch and my marriage didn't work out. We saw each other again years later and got married. We enjoyed 13 wonderful years together only to be parted by his death.

Eventually we broke up for several reasons and though we both married other people, I could never forget her and I still loved her. Every time I heard this song, I would think of her and wondered if she ever thought about me too. It turns out that she did; she too never forgot me and she was still in love with me. 40 years later, we found each other again. She is just as beautiful today as she was when she was 16 and we both promised to never lose each other again.

      Do you think I can find her again just like you did with the girl you knew long ago?
      The worst think is that I didn't get her name but I wonder why I've dreamed about her after all this time again? I hope somehow it's no coincidence that maybe she's thinking about me too
