Moody Blues nights in white satin video reaction.The band had this big hit in the 60s.They were one of the many classic blues band that emerged from England in that period.

Your reaction was great. I think this song left a lot of us speechless the first time we heard it. It’s spectacular.
Thanks for the multiple mentions. This promotional film is like a psychedelic time capsule. Most people prefer the album version, which continues with an extended orchestral arrangement and a spoken word poem, but I thought the viewers would enjoy the music with the visual imagery. The song is about loving someone from afar but not being able to be with them.

I could not agree with you more James. This version is the band, unadorned. You can here Mike Pinder's brilliant Mellotron passages. This version is less cacophony and more soul. To my ears anyway.. I do recognize though the established version is an epic Masterpiece and my view is in the minority. RNB

The live at Royal Albert Hall mix is incredible. Just needs the album ending.
Live decades later is a must see.
Such a beautiful song To me, it’s a song about lost love. How can a song with “I love you” sound so so sad and beautiful at the same time? It’s about loss to me
Because the Great black blues players from the U.S. went to London and met all these musicians who were hungry for the blues when they were hanging out in the pubs ..so thank Howling Wolf and other great blues players …born out of that came the British Invasion
The Moody Blues are just as good as the Beatles. Love that band.
You need to hear the extended version.
You need to know that to this day Justin Hayward sings this majestic song perfectly, now in a scaled down acoustic form with his “solo” concerts. Make sure you look it up! Genius
One of my favorite songs ever. Such a smooth beat throughout. Words and singing is fantastic.
Harri, each member of the Moodies played multiple instruments. Probably my favorite band after the Beatles. They garnered a few hits, in my book the radio stations did not play their best music. In the early 1960’s the air waves were dominated by BBC. They rarely played American music. There was a 100, 000 watt radio station out of Germany that played American pop , country , blues. The fortunate ones in UK could hear it late at night. Nearly all of the major rock band members , Beatles , Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton were touched by the music they heard. The port towns of the UK Liverpool etc became black markets of trade for American music 45’s. The sailors US and UK would bring the records to port and sell them. Members of The Who, Stones etc would hungrily purchase any American records they could. Mick Jaegar said of those times “ who ever had the coolest and most records from the states became the coolest kid on the block. These things launched the interest in the blues in Europe. Interestingly as young people across Europe were discovering classic American blues masters and country and western American teens showed little interest. The British Invasion of the early 1960’s turned American interest onto the long neglected distinctly American styles of music. You folks in the UK woke us up to our rich heritage and opened our eyes to the treasures there. Then you guys across the pond made it your own.
There is an extended version of this song that has a spoken poem at the end that kind of sums it all up. When looking at this song you need to take it in the context of the album as a whole. Days of Future Passed, is an album that charts a mans life across a day. In the process of talking of a man's life they finally reach the end, the "night", the white satin spoken of is not a bed sheet as some might think, it is in fact the lining of the coffin in which we lay at the end of life, an ending that goes on "never reaching an end". This song is actually the long lament of a man looking back on his life, regretting things he didn't do, chances he didn't take, particularly of never making known his love for woman he once knew. Now, back to that bit about the spoken lament at the end, the final five lines are the same that start the album, symbolizing that our endings are the same as our beginnings, or to put it another way, "ashes to ashes, dust to dust". For anyone who only knows the song, I recommend that at least once in your life, you take the time to take it all in, in full context of the entire album start to finish. It helps to put it all in perspective.
Sir, the extended version has a spoken word outro that you need to hear. Pure poetry, beautifully narrated. It MAKES the song. So poignant. Please, many people are asking you to do it. There’s a reason! : ) Let’s put it this way: I look for reactions to this song specifically to see their reaction to the narrated portion at the end.
Justin was his name and white satin sheets given to him by lover who broke up with him nights in white satin beautiful song love the Moody Blues
Gotta play the album version. Better still, turn out all the lights, light a candle and listen to the whole 'Days Of Future Past' album. You won't regret it!
Great group and song.. As someone mentioned below there is a long version with an orchestra and nice speech at the end.. ♠W.G.
Great reactions Harry you are reacting to the best era in music when I grew up so much talent
timeless Classic
Moody Blues, so many beautiful songs! Play them all Harri! Peace brother
the British invasion was all about bringing the Blues Back to America. The brit kids thought it ironic they loved it so much and when they brought it back to America no one knew is was American blues.. Howlin Woolf... Robert Johnson and all the great artist segregated form their audience by racism here. It took white kids from england to break that barrier with electric guitars and it didn't break enough so the punks tried even harder... people still don't know what a disservice racism has done for music lovers every where. Rhythm and Blues is the soul of popular music nothing will ever change that
Moody Blues are on a whole other level.
Wonderful song. Great reaction. “Just a Singer in a Rock and Roll Band” is another beautiful song!
Try the long version or the album or many of their other albums.
Other excellent choices by this band: Tuesday Afternoon The Story in Your Eyes Legend of a Mind Question Are You Sitting Comfortably Voices in the Sky Visions of Paradise Out and In Gypsy Eternity Road
One of my favorite bands, ever. Their catalog is filled with amazing and brilliantly written sonic gems. I'll echo some of the other commenters, and recommend listening with good headphones, for the optimum experience.

Pure beautiful Music !!
MOODY BLUES, "NIGHTS IN WHITE SATIN". THERE IS A FULL LENGTH VERSION OF THIS SONG.. THIS IS ONE OF THE TOP SONGS OF 60'S...

so now that you have gotten a taste of this amazing group, i would hope you would take the time to listen to the entire album start to end. their 1st 7 albums are all considered concept albums. look forward to watching more of your videos.

Thanx for that
Nights in White Satin is the climax of the album Days of Future Past. Listen to the whole album an it will give yopu more grasp of the whole. Justin wrote the song in a single day. His girl frind at the time had just broken up with him. As a parting gift she gave him a set of white satin sheets. Hence the title, Prior to this album they used an instrument called a mellotron an orchestral feel to their music. Prior to the album their production company had hired an orchestra for another project that fell through. Someone got the idea to combine the two. While risky they decided why not give it a shot. Well lightning struck gold and history was made.Along with the album you might want to listen to the Royal Albert Hall concert of Nights. While years later the group hasn't lost a step. And while Justin's voice has the same qualities only fuller and more mature. I will warn you now that you have head the flute solo it will haunt you for the rest of your life. In moments of drifting you will hear it in your head and it will all come flooding back. I know I first heard it in 67 and it still happens.
For a truly spiritual experience, check out their deep cut, 'Watching And Waiting." I hear my dearly passed on Jack Russell Terrier, Seamus, calling out to me in that song.
Do yourself a favor later and listen to the extended version of this song with decent headphones. The power and range will blow you away.
Same era as Eric Burton and the Animals, Eric even suggested Justin join the Moodys!
Awesome early prog/psych group with tons of great songs but never got the recognition they deserved always overshadowed by the Beatles and early Bee Gees and others check out "Tuesday afternoon" "Ride my see saw" "Dr. Livingstone i presume" "Legend of a mind" "Gypsy" "Lovely to see you" "Dear diary" "Lazy day" "Story in your eyes" You can never go home" "Steppin' in a slide zone" "Had to fall in love" and from Justin Hayward and John Lodge's 1975 album "Blue Jays" "I Dreamed last night" "Who are you now" so many great songs as others have said the album version of this is amazing with the full orchestra ?
Harry, you also need to spend a little time overseas--some suggestions--spend some time listening to the Dutch group WITHIN TEMPTATION--Sharon den Adel, the front, has a GREAT voice--listen to ANGELS, FASTER, MEMORIES and STAND MY GROUND. Then go Irish--listen to some CLANNAD--Start with SIRIUS and then TURNING TIDE and SOMETHING TO BELIEVE IN. Then off to Indonesia and ANGGUN--start with A ROSE IN THE WIND then try SNOW IN THE SAHARA, MY MAN, UNDRESS ME, and IN YOUR MIND. I don't think you will be disappointed..
Great song and great review. However suggesting the AM radio version of this song is just wrong to when the full length version is so much better!!
Always a favorite. Reminds me of going to the skating rink as a child.
You might like 'Judy Blue Eyes' by Crosby Stills and Nash, definitely "old man" by Neil Young

I'm 63, I was a teen when it came out, and to this day, I have no clue what the lyrics mean!!!! For me, it's all about the music!!!!! If anybody knows WTF the song is about, please, tell us!
You need to do the long version of this song🥰
This song is actually about the singer's love for Krishna! Yeah no joke. He is a baby boomer and his Pluto in Cancer shows the Moon disposits his Pluto and Krishna is actually the Moon in Vedic Astroligy - an incarnation of Vishnu, his 8th avatar. The Moon 's colour is milky pale white, like white satin streaking across the sky. Moon represents the night. Moon is very powerful in the 3rd house in Vedic astrology which deals with writing. Thst is why the singer talk about writing letters and never meaning to send. You know the baby boomers are very much influenced by Eastern religion, philosophy and spirituality. The thoughts that you have would determine the person that you are. That is the Moon the mind in Vedic Atrology. Letters are just the means to convey the truth that is in your eyes. Rukmani wrote Krishna some letters but she never really meant to see it because it would reveal too much of her feelings to Krishna. The white satin in the song is endless. The Moon represents the milky way. Rukmini is the reincarnation Lakshmi and Krishna that of Vishnu. And Krishna and Lakshmi is a pair of eternal consort in the Hindu pantheon of Gods.
You need to listen to the longer, symphonic version!
Try the original moody blues hit "go now"
.nice song rob
hope you had a listen to the full version
Harri, Please do the long version but not that current long live version.i think that was their induction into the Rock and Roll hall of fame. Do the original version from the Album "Days of future past. I think on the album its called"The Night" It would mean a lot to us Subscribers. Thanks Harri ☺
he was ending one relationship with one woman and the start with another. the satin sheets were from the new woman .
brilliant
Harry, you have got to listen to the long version. There is a long introduction and then an outro after the Music stops that you have to hear. It's over 10 minutes long. Look for that.
Check out the live version of this song done more recently.
Justin wrote this at 19. White satin sheets on the bed. Bad breakup.
It's "Knights in White Satin", not Nights...Justin Hayward (lead vocalist) wrote this song at the tender age of 19 about a relationship that had just ended.. the Moodies - one of my favorite bands.. Check out: "Lost Horizon", "Long Highway", "Blue Guitar" "One Step into the Light" - kzread.info/dash/bejne/mqSmraSOacXafps.html. Here's Justin performing live: "Had to Fall in Love" in 2018: kzread.info/dash/bejne/m5euypiumMW1j84.html. You have hundreds of gr8 hits by the Moodies to delve into. 😃
You should listen to the full album. This song is like watching a 10 minute part in the middle of the movie.
Now you have to listen to the parody. Nights at White Castle.
PLEASE react to the extended version of this song, which includes a spoken word section at the end… This band is considered the roots of Progressive Rock… You have no idea how great this band is… They even influenced Paul McCartney….
I'm not positive but I think his girlfriend bought white satin sheets for his bed then later ended up leaving him. Beautiful break up song. He starts noticing all the other people around him in love and has friends trying to help him get over her but its not working. He's thinking of things he would have done differently, maybe. That's kind of the feel I get from it.

fantastic break down mate
another great band with an amazing singer was lynyrd skynyrd. unfortunately the singer was killed in a plane crash in 1977 but they left behind many all time classics. check out their song - simple man. that'll also make your day. it has a message that will stay with you forever. while i'm writing this, you're asking what nights in white satin is about. in an interview the singer who wrote the song said that it was about a secret crush that he couldn't get up the nerve to talk too so he would write his feelings in a letter, but he never got up the nerve to send it. and thank god for that. maybe if he did send it, we wouldn't have this classic today. he also wrote - tuesday afternoon over that same crush.
