Other people have probably said this already, but the long version is also a must listen. It contains an orchestral interlude with a poem.
Seconded
Thirded
that's the radio version. should listen to other extended one

Please react to the longer version!!
Moody Blues were game changers in the field of music. Their songs were a totally different style of music than what we were used to hearing. Great stuff
I can close my eyes while listening to this and be transported way back to an indescribably wonderful time. How I miss those days! Try some Procol Harum.
Same, how lucky are we to have this be the music of our youth
Guys, give this whole album a go. It flows
This song is from their album Days Of Future Passed. This is an album that should be listened to from start to finish because it tells a story. A masterpiece
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", "I'm Just A Singer In A Rock & Roll Band". But all of their music is great.
I'm glad you dropped Go Now... It seems to me kind of like the forgotten hit, rarely mentioned. One of the 1st songs I ever learned on the piano.... I'm a pretty fair guitar player, but I'll always think of myself as a piano player...
I say "er" because I'm probably not good enough on either to be an "ist". But it's 10:45 pm right now and suddenly I feel the need to go downstairs and bang on my piano
Ohhh " Go Now " is fantastic
"The Story in Your Eyes" and "I'm Just a Singer in a Rock and Roll Band" are two more of their many classics.
How about from the way, way back machine.... Go Now
The story in your eyes is a must to react to ..
Add Question to those 2 as well.
And don't forget Tuesday Afternoon.
My husband saw them in the 70s without an orchestra and he said while it was listenable it just wasn't the same. But in the 90s he had the opportunity to seen them again, twice, with full symphonies backing them and they were fabulous!!
I understand that every song was composed to be played with an entire orchestra backing them...and that's OK by me...
This is not true. There is no orchestra in this song. It is the mellotron.
No Moody Blues song has orchestral backing although they did occasionally play with an orchestra such as Red Rocks.
My granddaughter always tells me that she was was born in the wrong generation. LOL. Thank you guys for a great trip down memory lane. Love it and keep up the great work. Happy New Year to you both
They managed to capture and record a "dream" with NIWS. I've never heard anyone ever get as close to that feeling. This song is a treasure for all time.
It was 1967 when the "Moody Blues" first played this song in France. It was written by Justin Hayward of the Moody Blues at the age of 19. The inspiration of the song came by way of white satin bed sheets given to him by his girlfriend. He explained that "It was a very emotional time" as he "was at the end of one big love affair and the start of another."
The Moody Blues were part of the great British invasion of the 1960's rock bands. And music and culture will never be the same again. Priceless!
One of their earlier songs was Tuesday afternoon my personal favorite
I was hoping for the full version, because that is an amazing piece of art.
The most beautiful touching song always gives me goose bumps and genius poetry.
The Moody Blues were one of the early examples of how a band who had reached moderate success proceeded to blow up once they replaced the lead singer (like Journey did 13 years later)....Justin Hayward had (and still has) has a very powerful and passion-fueled voice!
The longer version is like being wrung out with emotion. But I've given this tune more time in the last few months than in decades simply because I fell hard for someone and couldn't believe my luck. And this is the sound of that. Your life is changed in a very powerful and permanent way and sometimes it can be overwhelming. Justin Hayward can still do it justice today.
You should watch the 2012 concert you tube has of them performing this with
a full Orchestra..54 yrs
later..Unbelievable
performance Please watch
it. Dan
It is actually from a concert series in 2000. There voices are like fine wine getting better with age (Justin Hayward was about 53 at this concert).
1967. There’s another extended version of this tune with the orchestra at the end , you guys gotta check it out.
Such a great song back in the day, and still beautiful, thx!
Love this song.It is sooooooo hauntingly beautiful. That
flute is amazing.The 60s gave us sounds that have never been matched.The flute and organ musicians were fantastic.
Check out Chicago's "Colour my world" .The Association "Never My Love",and The Hollies "The Air that I Breathe".
Isn't that the most beautiful sound you ever heard? Absolutely oldies gold!
One thing about ROCK their ballads a beautiful
This piece is so nice on the piano and what a beautiful song
One of my favourite songs
Australia 💕 Christina
You said you want to listen to it again, do it! 😊 but listen to the extended version. There is a studio version that will blow your mind, but my favorite is the live version from later (1980’s maybe or even 90s?) with a full orchestra. One of the most mesmerizing songs ever written!
Wrong version, guys - this is the short version, you need the longer version with the poem at the end. Yes, it makes a LOT of difference.
The Moody Blues were like a more mature Beatles. Their first 7 concept albums are treasure chests full of myriad high delights. I don't know their later works as well, but they are surely just as good, if not even better.
This greatest of love songs, is perfect for you lovebirds, here at the beginning of a new year.
Love y'all. Peace and love!
Beautiful reaction-the both of you thank you much.
I looooooove Mel. She is gorgeous for one and the way she listens and the expressions on her face are so she's feeling that music so deeply. Love watching her.
there is a longer version with a symphony and a poem at the end. you should check out too. also give a listen to their song tuesday afternoon. they are from england
The director of my camp when I was a kid turned me on to this group. Loved them ever since. Love the mellotron on this song.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written ❤
Love, love, love this song!!! Excellent!!!
If you listen to the extended play version, you'll give it 15+ out of 10!!!
Thank you for giving the 1968 version. I've seen several videos that do the live concert version, but this is the bomb. I listened to this on the radio as a kid. I finally bought the album so I could listen whenever I wanted. Great time to be alive. One of my all time favorites. Amazing group. Love y'all. Grandma 1958
This is one of my all-time favorite songs
One the greatest all-time love songs.
One of the best songs ever written, beautiful.
MOODY BLUES, "NIGHT'S IN WHITE SATIN".. THEIR FIRST CONTEMPORARY HIT 1967.. MORE "TUESDAY AFTERNOON" , "QUESTION", "JUST A SINGER IN A ROCK AND ROLL BAND", "RIDE MY SEESAW"...They're from England...
I swear to God, this is my kind of ASMR. These songs give me the CHILLS!!!!
My favorite song since the early 70s. Never heard a song to replace it. 💜💜💜
2022 and still these songs bring some great moments,his voice is magical
I was fortunate enough to see them live in the mid-1980s. There is a live version of this song with blue lighting which is exactly how my memory is...the blue lights & ethereal music. I can almost taste it, now.
That is such a nostalgic song for me
It was always one of my Mom's favorite songs..and always evokes an emotional response to me....so thank you for reacting to this song.
I got to see them twice, once with a full orchestra accompanying them.
When a Boomer as myself see the appreciation of the music of our days it brings tears to the eyes to fight back from. Blessings~
Always think of my dad when i hear this. Been listening ti this my whole life. 54 yrs. A true classic.
Still get such a thrill hearing this beautiful song. 👍👍👍
One of the most beautiful slow songs of All-Time!! I danced to this one many times, back in the day.
Tuesday Afternoon is one hell of a song. All of their songs are amazing. Growing up in my house, Easter was not complete without Moody Blues and Earth, Wind, and Fire
Always loved this song! Loved playing on my flute in school too. You should watch and hear the video with the full orchestra and the big ending
Caution- The Moody Blues collection of music is a very deep rabbit hole. . . . Their unique compositions ad orchestral backup defined eclectic music from the late 60's to early 90's.
As soon as it came out in 1967, it became my favorite song. It still is. 50 years after it's released, I saw them do this in concert. It was amazing. Justin Hayward can still sing brilliantly! Ray Thomas, on flute died in 2018, drummer Graeme Edge died in 2021. RIP.
Great group and great song as the voices are just powerfull
Moody Blues "Candle of life" and "In your wildest dreams" ❤️
The Moody Blues are one of my 3 favorite groups! I have seen them in concert many times and usually with a full orchestra to back them. Sadly, Ray (flutist) and Graeme (drummer) have passed away. Please react to the Moodies: "I Had to Fall in Love", "Lost Horizons" and "Om".
Moody Blues...my favorite, and I love all genres of music....
This a great rock band love to hear them again.
Hauntingly beautiful and gives you goosebumps. My favorite song by them
They are a different breed of musicians, very Moody, very Blue, very soul searching
You said it Shawn ..... masterpiece
One of the best voices from this era!!
Keep in mind they didn't have all the modern auto-tune / technology when this was recorded.
The symphony matches the voice ... making it angelic!!
Mood Blues have a lot great music. This is one of my favorites. I also like one that is really three songs run together. They are, The Beginning, Lovely to See You Again, Dear Diary. Keep it up, I enjoy watching ya'll.
This reaction was so good guys, thank you for letting me relive my first reaction that I had over 45 years ago... I am sure "wow" is exactly how I felt too! Thumbs up, love your channel the most... Happy New Year.... gt
yes I'm a boomer...Moody Blues my first concert...the best way to see tem outdoor under the stars summer soltace...don't forget the acid!😮
My bucket wish is it listen to this song, while viewing the Grand Canyon as the sun is setting. Just a wish.
That's sweet of you to wear that shirt. Betty White may have had no kids, but had millions of grandchildren:)
I first heard this song in 1970 when I was 10 years-old... it was another time in another world.
S & M, PLEASE PLEASE listen to the extended version!!!!! It's a must. It will bring you to tears, especially the longer intro. Happy New Year!!
When he hits that last "I love you", I still get chills.
Thanks for your reaction. It was very cool seeing you both really getting immersed in this hypnotic melody. It’s such a beautiful done song. BTW. Happy New Year everyone!
Love the Orchestra version. I would love to see the reaction to that. They are amazing and still got it!
it’s a hauntingly beautiful song🖤
need to check out the album studio version of this song as it continues to take you into another realm of cosmos.
Loved the moody blues 💙 saw them in concert 1970...Graeme Edge a founding member died in November 2021..he was 80...RIP. their music is timeless ❤❤❤
That song was everywhere in 1972...I think. Everyone I knew in Baltimore loved it.
Yes, I was expecting the longer version. Much better.
The greatest song of all time pure Masterpiece
long extended version please!!! you will not be disappointed...
You also need to hear the LIVE versionTaped a few years back, I think around 10 yrs maybe. The whole Performs was Sooooo Good. Justin's voice was even better than I remembered it !!!
Great sounds great music
I have loved them as a kid I am 63 now and my older cousin turned me on to the band when I was like 7 years old!
Their mysterious sound in this song makes me feel like I'm on a cloud heading to another destination.
The Moody Blues were ground breakers in the music industry. Justin Hayward wrote this song when he was around 19 years old. I always considered them to be in the upper echelons of the music hierarchy. There are so many great songs and concept albums that they have created. I must admit that my favorite is Long Distance Voyager, probably because that is my first album of theirs that I bought when I was a freshman in college.
I would also recommend John Lodges Talking Out Of Turn and Justin Hayward's rendition of Forever Autumn, which is featured in Jeff Wayne's theatrical presentation of War Of The Worlds.
one of my all time favorite songs!
We recently lost Graeme Edge, drummer, original member..Watch Singer in a Rock n Roll Band.....even in my day hearing them was a musical journey...all the orchestra music made them so special!
U Guys are very Sweet & So Real!
U both swooned to the moving refrain of, ‘Oh how I love U...’!
Yeah, it always reaches me, too❣️
Keep It Goin’ On!
I was only 12 or so when this song came out. I didn't even understand what it was about, but the beauty of the voices made me go right out and buy the single with my allowance.
You have to listen to the full version to get the complete experience
I agree with you both totally! You can really feel his pain in this song
Happy New Year! Love, love, love this song. It was my uncle's favorite band and hearing them after he passed away always made my Mom cry. Now it makes me think of them both. Beautiful. It's a 10 from me!
They were at Woodstock! That Good! For 500.000+ people! 🤠🇺🇸🇨🇦🇬🇧✌️⭐
You’ll are great !! Happy NEW YEAR
Justin wrote that song when he was only 19 years old. His girlfriend had just bought him some white satin sheets. This has always been one of my favorite songs. BTW they are from Manchester UK I believe. 🏁
You can hardly miss with a Moody Blues song. They were fantastic, with a sound all their own. Great choice! (Check out "Isn't Life Strange", "Melancholy Man" and "Story In Your Eyes".
This song has some of the best reactions on CZcams it really is a fucking masterpiece
Moody Blues were one of the first rock bands to have access to an orchestra, thanks to their record label.
Their "Days of Future Past" was produced with orchestral arrangements.
Brings you in the right mood of loving 😮❤
My parents were huge fans of the Moody Blues, and "dragged" me to see them in concert in Toronto a bunch of times. Always a great show, they used an instrument called a mellotron quite a lot for orchestral sounds. Some other great songs to look for: Question, Melancholy Man, I'm Just a Singer (In a Rock and Roll Band), Never Comes the Day, Tuesday Afternoon, Isn't Life Strange, I Know You're Out There Somewhere, and Ride My See-Saw.
You guys are the best reviewers. I love watching you. This song is a true masterpiece that spans over so much during its journey, especially the better long version. The, I love you, cries are so powerful. I love it to this day.
Lovely to See You and Gypsy are some other beautiful songs by MB. There are so many great ones.
Thx! Their first hit was “Go now,” in the early 60s!
That's been one of my most favourite songs for most of my life.
