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? this is the best part of the entire song.

This song came out in 1967. I was 17 years old. I am now 73 and still listen to The Moody Blues. This is one example why my generation can't stand the music of today.

Those were the days.. love this song.. His voice ❤❤

"Nights In White Satin" is their most famous song. Moody Blues are one of my favorite groups from the 60's-80's. Love their mix of rock with classical music. Lots of great songs such as "Go Now", "Tuesday Afternoon", "The Story In Your Eyes", "Question", "Ride My See-Saw", "I'm Just a Singer (In a Rock and Roll Band)", "Gemini Dream", "The Voice" etc. All of their music is great! Many of their records are concept albums & meant to be listened to all at once. Sadly Ray Thomas their flute player & singer passed away in 2018 & their drummer Graeme Edge passed away in 2021.

I bought it in '67 or '68, not long after it was released here in the Netherlands and I still love it.

I was not a huge Moody Blues enthusiast back in the day when I went to see them live. To this day it remains one of the best sounding concerts I ever saw. They were excellent live.

written when he was 19 in 1967 68, this concert is in 2000 and he sounds amazing

The Moody Blues had their own unique sound. It transcends generations. There will always be a generation gap where music is involved but that never effects the great ones being enjoyed by all.

very hard to find a live performance as good as this...................absolutely brilliant on all levels

They did a lot more than one album. They were one of the greatest groups in the world in the late 60s, early 70s.

This is THE BEST performance of this song. EVER.

The 1967 official version has a poem at the end of it that really makes this song special. Look for Nights In White Satin-The Moody Blues (1967) A Timeless Classic.

This was my brother, Court's, favorite band. He passed away three years ago ON NEW YEARS DAY. He was on a pacemaker and only 15% of his heart worked and he was on a donor list. The pacemaker STOPPED either just before or EARLY IN THE AM. He was released from a week long emergency stay on NEW YEARS EVE. I bought him tickets for his birthday in his thirties. He was working on a car on jacks and an idiot "friend" kept sitting inside the car. My brother yelled at him to stop. He wouldn't, so my brother started to get from under the car, and he started to hear creaking as he was laying sideways, and the car came down and twisted his spine. Even in excruciating pain, HE MADE THE CONCERT!!! I worked event security and REALLY TRIED TO GET HIM BACKSTAGE. He was HAPPY ANYWAY and kept yelling, "OWW!" as tears of JOY streamed down his face as he clapped wildly. WE WERE LAUGHING and I WILL NEVER FORGET THAT MOMENT. 👏🎉😂 I woke up around 1:45 CST and am sitting here laughing in my bed as I LITERALLY FEEL the lung cancer tha spread to up my spne and into my brain, MELTING away as I talk to him. We are connected SPIRITUALLY. NO LIE. I AM ASTOUNDING DOCTORS AT VANDERBILT AND I WILL PUT TOGETHER PROGRAMS AND PACKAGES FOR CANCER PATIENTS TO BE BETTER INFORMED, PREPPED FOR TREATEMENT AND MAKE IT MORE COMFORTABLE AND NOT A SCARY EXPERIENCE AND IS CURABLE IN MOST CASES WITH PREVENTATIVE MEASURES, KNOWING SIGNS, TREATMENT, BEFORE/AFTER CARE, BETTER ACCOMODATIONS AND RIDES.

I’m addicted to watching live concerts, on KZread. I love watching musicians playing their instruments. To me, it adds so much. Thanks for doing this one. 👍

I was listening this a while ago, send it to my aunt.. she was on the phone the next morning.. she loved it we had a good conversation.. she listens to it regularly now. Power of music❤

One of the best Bands in our lifetime!! Thank you for sharing this song!

This wasn't just a song? It was a journey! ❤❤❤❤

YES!!! A masterpiece by Justin Hayward!! UNFORGETABLE!

The name of the album you were trying to recall is "Days of Future Passed", released in 1967. Gotta love a good concept album!

The Moody Blues were one of my all-time favorite groups from the 1960s and 70s. This brought back a lot of memories. They were unique for their time, for their frequent use of orchestral backup. Other favorites included Tuesday Afternoon, Forever Autumn (Justin Hayward and Jeff Beck), and Question. This is a great review. Thank you!

I love this song!! It was on the radio when I was 6 years old and I used to sing along with it, but had no idea what the song was about except..."love" and I have loved the Moody Blues ever since!! Thank you for another great reaction video!

All I can say, if I was at this concert, I would be the woman crying !!!!! What an amazing song with the orchestra !!!! Oh my dear lord 😘

Forever Autumn is another gorgeous song from Justin Hayward.

I saw them live in 1993 at the Mark of the Quad Cities. They looked and sounded exactly like this video. Exactly!!! Best concert of my life.

Moody Blues. These are the FATHERS of progressive rock -- and they kicked off the genre with _Days of Future Passed._ As a concept album it was a masterpiece, and "Nights in White Satin" was a fitting crescendo. First heard it in 1967, they re-released the single of "Nights" at the same time they released _Seventh Sojourn_ in 1972, and by then I was absolutely hooked. Admittedly there's a bunch of Prog rock bands out there that I revere, but Moodies is top on my list because they were the *_first_* -- none are going to top what the Moody Blues did for Prog; and to a man these five gentlemen's character and integrity were second to no man. The Classic 7 albums oughta get a Nobel Prize for Lit, ngl. The fact that it took as long as it did for these artists to get inducted into the R&RHOF was a criminal injustice -- and a shame Ray Thomas wasn't there to see it.

The song is awesome, live is epic. I have seen them more than once live, they never left you wanting. Except for another show.

This is the kind of song you can't just listen to once and absorb everything that is going on. .Thousand times later it still touches my soul.

One of my most favorite songs from my early teens.❤I haven't heard this in decades.❤ Thanks Jamel!

My late husband was a huge fan of the Moody Blues, and we would discuss music a lot. This makes me miss him even more than usual.

I wish the live version included Graeme Edge's closing poem "Late Lament" but it was omitted from the concert video this was taken from. Nights with Late Lament with the orchestra is on the album "Best of the Moody Blues". Beautiful reaction Jamel!

The Moody's are my favorite. Glad you brought it back.

glad to see music reactions jamel thumbs up

One of, if not the best love song ever!!!

One of the greatest memories of my life was seeing Justin Hayward with the rest of the original Moody blues, plus a few additional players, perform this song live in concert in Richmond, VA. This was eight years ago. RIP, Justin Hayward, one of the originally most brilliant voices of all time.❤

I saw the Moody Blues at the Forum (so long ago I forget what year -- early '70's) -- Santana opened for them -- most fabulous concert I ever saw!!!! Santana was a new group, so not well-known, but after that night, everyone knew of Santana! The "Moodies" were just fantastic -- what an experience!!!

Live version is amazing

I went to see them back in early 90s at an outdoor venue in Philly with lawn seats on a beautiful summer night. It was just so magical. Still think about that night when I hear their music.

They are a fabulous live act, full orchestra in great venues. They absolutely love their audience! And Justin H. ❤ sounds as good or better than he did decades ago. I'm so glad this video is available of a wonderful performance of one of the best songs I know.

LOVE this performance. !!

👍 One of my ALLL 🎉time favorites!!! 🎉❤❤❤❤🎉

It's always been one of my favorites!

I enjoyed seeing the Moodies in concert for many years. The last concert I saw them in Atlanta was the last tour that they would all be performing together. Ray (flurist) retired due to health issues and has passed on. So has Graeme Edge (drummer). Justin Hayward (lead vocalist) & John Lodge (in black shirt who sings falsetto) both tour separately now, which is sad. Justin wrote this when he was 19 years old. They were (besides ELO) the first rock 'n roll band to perform with an orchestra. Most concerts I saw them they had one. RIP Ray & Graeme xx

I always listen with my eyes closed. Everyone should have a love so powerful

I saw the Moody Blues live at UC Irvine in 1994 - the Kingdom Tour. Every song sounded exactly like the album version. One of the best concerts I ever saw.

Just wow! I get goosebumps every time I hear this song. ❤

..."Class of 76"...I always considered this their best song and was either before or after Hotel California on my turntable...thank you for letting it play thru without interruption...

My boyfriend at the time this song was released had this on an 8-track tape. Oh, the memories!!

Great band. Love watching a good human. Welcome to an emersive experience listen loud. Peace

Saw them at age 13 as part of a concert series in my hometown. It was memorable in a time period with music crossovers of all sorts.

That voice... the music.... all phenomenal

The music score take this great song to a new level . The horn , violins and the flute adds a bit of magic . I like both versions . Not all songs can be changed for the better when the real deal is it .

Every band member played multiple instruments. layering tracks they sounded like full orchestra backing them on studio tracks. Truly amazing talented band. Live they always had an orchestra, most of their music was written to include an orchestra. They were spectacular live. Moody Blues and Pink Floyd were 2 of my favorite concerts.

I got to see them in concert in 2000 in Atlanta … it was great! This song is magical

Saw them 1st row in between John lodge and Justin Hayward. Couldn’t decided who I loved more😂. Got their autographs that night. Oh what an awesome memory.

He wrote this in high school, and when he writes a line…. “Just what you want to be,you will be in the end” makes me think of the word destiny for him and the Moody Blues. They were meant for this 50 year plus career in beautiful hit music.

The Moodies were a fab live band. Iconic song. Justin's voice always on point.

Great song! Great band! Happy you discovered the Moody Blues. 😃

I was able to hear this when they played it.. It Was and will Always be a Memory I was Blessed to hear in real Time. Ray Thomas was fabulous on his Flute !!! This Is in my my Top 5 Songs of all Time !

Many misunderstood the lyrics due to the homophone nights vs knights. The song lyrics are a composite of two of Justin Hayward's love relationships, the first a short affair where the girl bought him some white satin sheets and more a devastating breakup that was contemporary to writing the song. The use of Mellotron changed the entire direction of the band that were on the verge of losing their recording contract prior to Days of Future Past album release.

Justin Hayward has one of the purest voices the pop world has ever produced. And he's still going strong today! Check out Forever Autumn, sung by him, from the great War of the Worlds musical.

It gives me chills every time I hear songs from this album.

Thanks for sharing. I probably wore out a stylus or two listening to the Moody Blues. You see ... I was a young teenager when my neighbor's dad introduced me to the Moody Blues and it instantly changed my taste and appreciation for the music quality of rock music.

Justin Haywood write this song when he wasaout twenty. So to listen to him sing this song thirty years later and hear the emotion and passion he put into this song is a real treat. It reminded me of listening to Joni Mitchell’s latest version of Both Sides Now.

Major goosebumps...the song is like a time capsule for me...Loved it then and love it now:) THANKS FOR GETTING BACK TO THE MUSIC:) You do a fantastic job Jamel

This is special and so glad you've reacted to it. There's nothing being created as this and it's doubtful anybody has the talent or skill...Although, if anybody did the powers that be would squash it and refuse to record. This is my favorite band of all time; the unique blend of Classical, Rock and a bit of Folk really appeals to my eclectic tastes. Can't count the times to have seen them with Symphonies, Orchestras and Philharmonics around the country. The first time I saw them 'In Concert' they once opened with the tinkley music preceding 'Late Lament' recited in the Bassy-Baritone voice of Mike Pinder and he had to stop when the crowd went totally insane and nobody could hear anything. The Poem follows 'Nights in White Satin' on the Album; so this was different to place it in front of the song. After about 5 minutes of cacophonous ecstasy in having the privilege to see the band 'Live'; Pinder began again and you could hear a pin drop in the venue. It was one of the most outstanding openings of any band ever seen. SMASHING!!! While my Mom introduced we kids to all kinds of music even before birth; I introduced this to her and as a Classical Pianist she was enraptured... STILL ADORE THE MOODY BLUES. Justin Hayward was trully genius when creating this.

What to say. A masterpiece is a masterpiece. Always love your true appreciation of great music Jamel.

Sounds like he did when he first sung this beautiful song back in the day❤
