    I went to see The Moody Blues at the Saddledom on 2002 or 2004, I was at the front, when Mr Hayward started to sing Tuesday Afternoon, and I started to cry 😢: Mr John Lodge saw 👀 and reached out to me, and said do not cry. I said "I Love your music 🎶 🎵 always and I Love the group too" He said: "I know" Then he said I Love you too, and held my hand. I was so emotional 😭 and so happy when I was at the concert in the Saddledom. God Bless 🙌 The Moody Blues always. I will treasured the memories forever.
    ❤️ 😍 💖 ❣️ Marta Rodriguez

    Thank you, John Lodge! It must take some courage to release a staple of the Moodies' set list with a new arrangement fifty years after the world first fell in love with it. This version holds its own against the original and other live versions from across the decades. Yes, they are each different, which means listeners can take their pick depending on their mood! This song exemplifies the staying power of the Moodies' music by remaining relevant with its timeless message. Congrats on the live album, and thank you for giving us another tour!

    Such a beautiful video for a beautiful song. Thank you John! I spoke with Graeme back in the 90's and he informed me that in his opinion John Lodge's music is the music of the Moody Blues. The look on Graeme's face as he said this was one of pure love and admiration.

    I hit the "Like" button even before I heard the first note because I knew it was going to be great. Of course, I have not been disappointed. What a beautiful addition to my library of great music from this man and his mates over all of the years. Thanks for this lovely version of your tremendous song.

    "Isn't Life Strange"
    Isn't life strange
    A turn of the page
    Can read like before
    Can we ask for more?
    Each day passes by
    How hard man will try?
    The sea will not wait
    You know it makes me want to cry, cry, cry -
    Wished I could be in your heart
    To be one with your love
    Wished I could be in your eyes
    Looking back there you were, and here we are.
    Isn't love strange
    A word we arrange
    With no thought or care
    Maker of despair
    Each breath that we breathe
    With love we must weave
    To make us as one
    You know it makes me want to cry, cry, cry -
    Wished I could be in your heart
    To be one with your love
    Wished I could be in your eyes
    Looking back there you were, and here we are.
    Isn't life strange
    A turn of the page
    A book without light
    Unless with love we write;
    To throw it away
    To lose just a day
    The quicksand of time
    You know it makes me want to cry, cry, cry -
    Wished I could be in your heart
    To be one with your love
    Wished I could be in your eyes
    Looking back there you were:
