I saw an interview with from about 4 years ago and was pretty much asked this same question. His response was something along the lines of " not thinking about that when I wrote it. We just needed something to close the record." and he's stunned that it still holds sway over so many people's favorite song list. Man still doesn't realize his talent or the depth of love and respect the WORLD holds for him.

@@ZoolGatekeeper You have missed the whole point of this video and comments. It's about JUSTIN AND HIS SONG. Not the LP; not other members of the band and /or parts they played in backing up his vocals or instruments. Justin and the song. Nothing more. No Mike. No Days LP. Just the writer and his composition.

I first heard this song when I was 11 years old in Beirut, Lebanon, in 1973. We were refugees heading to America, land of the free. Even though I didn't understand the lyrics, I couldn't forget the song. The first album I bought in the US after my arrival was the Moody Blues, which I still have.

Nights in White Satin , my son was born the year before this was released , it was his first dance at his wedding , sadly he died not long afterwards . I'm an old woman now , but this will ever be held dear in my memory . 🙏🏼

I am 69 too and this band I loved wrote this song my favorite song ever. When I hear this wonderful song I am still amazed after all these years about all the feelings it stirs in me. We grew up in a terrible time and such a great tome too.

I used to play Nights In White Satin for my kids to calm them down and help them sleep when they were infants and toddlers. Now 5 decades later the song still makes them feel peaceful and sleepy when they need it.

I played this song at my son’s funeral. He was my knight in white satin. I will miss him forever.

The Moody Blues are a part of that very exclusive and rarified group of English rockers who changed the face of modern popular music. These guys wrote some pieces that are our modern classical music and will go down in history as such. "Nights In White Satin" is every bit as good as any of Lennon & McCartneys' greatest compositions. It is a timeless mood piece. It is a masterpiece!

What voice, no matter what his age! So strong and unwavering. I miss Ray Thomas but the young lady who is singing backup and playing the flute is also quite phenomenal. I started listening to them in 1972 and haven't stopped.

Well, we can only hope.

It's simply incredible how he can hold those notes at his age. Much respect.

As a ten year old boy in the 70's I would hear this song on the radio and it was beautiful and some parts scared me. 15 years later I bartended a private party at a house on the hill in Malibu (off of Carbon Canyon Road). The guy that hired me told me "the Moody Blues will be there" and I had no idea who they were. It was a small intimate party of about 12 people. As I walked through the crowd refreshing everyone's drink, the only person I recognized was Roger Daltrey from the Who. I was only 25 and I had no idea how lucky I was to be amongst greatness. If I could have that day back, I would soak in every moment and never let it go. All of these folks were very nice people.

It's one of the most gorgeously melancholic, poetic, cinematic albums ever made. It so easily could've just been a melodramatic and pretentious piece of bombast, yet instead it ended up being this work of enduring art. It was really taking a risk for them to do this album, but my how the risk paid off. I still listen to it from time to time and it is, in its beautiful bleak way, a balm. It will outlast us all.

Boy I love these Story behind the song vids. I was a teenager in the 60's. Time of my life... nuff said.

I love this song. The Moody Blues where my favourite group of the 60's and 70's. They told the story of my youth.

The song of a lifetime! Just pure awe, amazement and wonder! I saw the Moodies live in Portland Oregon about 15 yrs ago, that's one show I will never forget.

A true timeless song... Always loved Justin's voice. His vocal on Forever Autumn, I don't have the words to describe it.

Thanks for this post and this great series. Nov. 3rd 1968 I saw Cream in Baltimore and the Moodys were one of the support groups. What a night! Their current hit at the time was Ride My See Saw. Cool that they are still out there sharing their music with us.

Still a great voice..I Love Justin Hayward,,,

I got married on a Tuesday Afternoon because of these guys...it was the best and so are they.♥

My favorite song of my life. I am 70 now

Never comes the day....for my love and me. Thank you so much Justin

This song sounds otherworldly.....before my time as I'm born in 1970, but my dad played this time and time again. It's a wave of emotion listening to it. And THE moment for me in the song is that one drum beat taking things down and then the bass after that.....absolutely love that part.

Justin is a year old than myself, and I remember this as a teenager and being in love with it, so beautifully indicative of young love and that yearning we all once had. I was around 14 years old when Go Now was released. I remember having a huge crush on a boy I knew and I sat on his wall why this song blasted out of my transistor radio. Such a long, long time ago, but both songs are still fresh in my memory.

It was the ultimate slow-dance song in High School. I think everybody held their boy or girlfriend a little tighter during the chorus!

I absolutely LOVE this song!

Thanks for sharing. Lovely to hear how songs and music evolved. Great. 05/24

gpt tp see them in concert in the early 90's, one of the best shows i've ever seen!

I’ve always loved The Moody Blues. Incredible.

Ahhhh. The music of my teenage years and fumbling slow dances. Still love it.

If I was in a situation where I could only listen to the music of one band, it would be the Moody Blues, they're still my all time favorite, more than the Beatles, or Pink Floyd, or Led Zeppelin, or any other band, I just don't get tired of hearing the Moody Blues.

This song is second only to a whiter shade of pale, they have a lot in common.1 they were both debut singles, yes i know the moodies had been around for a few years but this was the new line up with justin & john,2 they both came out in 1967, and 3 they were both on deccas new "Deram" label who released many failures,but hit gold with these two.i love both songs,if it was a horse race, it would be a photo finish,but for me "procol just ahead, .the production on both songs are amazing,the orchestral backing on the moodys,and mathew fishers hammondon WSOP.both songs are so emotional and well sung total classics.

I have always loved this song... From the first time I heard it, till now !!!!

Love seeing these older gents showing their stuff.

Talk about an incredible voice, even a richer sound today.

their live sound was amazing in this clip. the vocals were mixed perfectly and the whole band sounded huge with only three singers, 12 string, bass and a tiny drum kit. amazing!

I’m 58, there are a few songs that surface throughout your lifetime as iconic...this is one of them. Nice backstory!

Wonderful, beautiful song to this day.

Completely insane talent!!!

" its from the Heart " . A classic that captivates you for 5 decades since 1968 . Love the lyrics and the recording designed for it

Gosh what a fantastic group and such an iconic song.......gotta love this.......

Loved this !!!!! ✌🏻❤

69 young... So lucky for the best music We knew it then really it know now😊 Thanks Moody Blues

Amazing. Gives me chills every time I hear this song.

One school day in 1978 looking for something to do we changed all the names of the artists and songs in the Top 40 to silly,and often rude,alternatives. Justin Hayward had Forever Autumn out at the time,and I still remember the one we changed him to was "Jostick Haystack". Which may or may not be wholly appropriate.

Hauntingly beautiful song. I love it.

Moody Blues will forever be the most amazing talent, band, music , voices, songwriters Love these guys!!

His voice is amazing, never changing!

What great lyrics and music! Never get tired of listening! Made several concerts, and the Moody Blues never disappoint!

we played this album back to back, side to side with all their other albums when they came out. You can laugh but it was 'an experience' to be 'in the music.' And, , not ONE bad song on the entire album.

This back story is pretty darn cool to hear. Glad to reflect back to music of those times which was the soundtrack of my youth.

I love this song.

He doesn't look different! I loved the costuming for their music videos. Such a good magic.

I knew of the song many years ago, but not the album. I came across it about a year ago, so the songs on it and was excited to buy it. The Moody Blues is one of my top 10 groups of all time....

And the Tide rushes in, and washes my troubles away. Best line ever from the Moodies.

I remember gravitating to this song when I first heard it,,,, I was 10 yrs old,,, and I still do now at 60 yrs old,,,, This song just grabbed me and never let me go,,,, incredible song indeed,,,,,💫🎶✨🌠💞

It’s always so weird seeing iconic rock groups in their “mature” years. Love this song and it holds up

Fabulous treat to see this! Thanks! Justin's voice just blows you away then & now

In 1968 there was a kid in my high school class who could do a dead on impersonation of Denny Laine singing "Go Now". I never forgot it.

One of the greatest songs ever written - and he was 19 when he wrote it? Respect! He still looks and sounds amazing and the song is timeless, as are so many of their songs.

Thk u for a great song. Love ur music so much.

Man - that stripped down version they did was awesome!

Great song, remember listening to in as a teen.

Still has a magical voice!

This song always brings back memories of me lying in the dark in my bedroom listening to this song on a record player. I was 17 years old. My boyfriend left to go away to college. I was so lonely. I missed him terribly. I lost that first love, but never forgot him, due to this song.

Amazing artists! Grateful for your gift and the gift from hundreds of your industry peers. Thank you.

Both times I saw them in concert were beautiful !

Iconic still till this day.
