The Moody Blues - Nights In White Satin (From "Live at Montreux 1991")
Available Now: mercury-studio...
The Moody Blues were formed in Birmingham in the early sixties and were immediately successful, going to No.1 with their second single Go Now. As the sixties progressed their music evolved into a more lush, psychedelic sound and with the arrival of Justin Hayward and John Lodge the classic line up came together and produced the masterpiece Days Of Future Passed, which contained their classic hit single Nights In White Satin and Tuesday Afternoon. This propelled the band to a new level of success which they have sustained ever since.
Songwriters: Hayward, Justin
Nights in white satin, never reaching the end,
Letters I've written, never meaning to send.
Beauty I'd always missed with these eyes before.
Just what the truth is, I can't say anymore.
'Cos I love you, yes I love you, oh how I love you.
Gazing at people, some hand in hand,
Just what I'm going through they can't understand.
Some try to tell me, thoughts they cannot defend,
Just what you want to be, you will be in the end.
And I love you, yes I love you,
Oh how I love you, oh how I love you.
Nights in white satin, never reaching the end,
Letters I've written, never meaning to send.
Beauty I've always missed, with these eyes before.
Just what the truth is, I can't say anymore.
'Cos I love you, yes I love you,
Oh how I love you, oh how I love you.
'Cos I love you, yes I love you,
Oh how I love you, oh how I love you.
Breath 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 gray and
Yellow white
But we decide
Which is right
And
Which is an Illusion

The music that was produced in the 70's is the best music in the history of the world; past, present, & future. It was created by people that had lived life & they told their stories with characteristic vision & their own unique flair. But most importantly, the music of the 70's had SOUL. Today's music is canned and it lacks melody, change ups & is sooo predictable. The 70's was a good time to grow-up & be a music lover.
Even if we said that there are "good bands" around today, we can't ever lose the legend of the Moody Blues. They are timeless and will be eternal. Music which shapes and shifts the sands of our history and time

Me mueve mas que las arenas...estoy bailándola inevitablemente!!!
A classic! The Moody Blues and Justin Hayward deserve far more recognition for their contribution over the years. Their songs are poetry to music. Brilliant! :)
This song is so sensual and spiritual at the same time. I can't really explain.
The lead singer, Justin Hayward has aged well.... he doesn't look old at all!...awesome song!...one of my favorites!...The Moody Blues rock!!!!!
I love blaring this song and singing along to the point where I reach a uphoric high. Classic jam
born in 1950, remember the beginning, now will kick-back, catch a little buzz, and enjoy the music-- far-out!
True music. Real and never aging... Unlike my generation. Grew up happily being a misfit with these 60s songs :)
you know what...I was born in '69. Though this is sort of before my time...it's what i grew up with and what really brings me to youtube.You "youngins" have no idea the lengths we had to go to to see our heroes back in the day.Nowadays they are all right here in front of us.I for one consider myself very very lucky to be able to see this.They really are a great band as demonstrated by this performance among many others.
There will never be another group of artists of THIS calibre!!! This is one of my all time faves I like almost all music genres but this one really hits my heartstrings and makes my body sing!!! Ten Stars Plus!!!!! Thank you for posting this. I love it!!!!!
All the people that love this song should listen to the whole album "Days Of Future Passed", is equally emotional and beautiful. Is one of the greatest albums ever made You have my word :) Enjoy!

The majority of us have listened to it...Dumb Arse
My soul band! I was very young, a child, I didn’t understand all the poesy of the text, but I felt that’s a mysterious promise to a future happiness. Jason’s voice and all that music made me always happy, and that’s what happens now…
A bitter-sweet memory; my fiancée's favourite song, which she asked me to sing for her just before she died. It's still the most powerful love song ever and this was a truly great performance of it. Thanks.

This was written 12 tears ago, I know.. but I thought you should know, that's the sweetest goodbye.. so moving. Thank you.
This song is one you can listen to a thousand time and not get tired of it
I think Justin Hayward is as brilliant as he always was. ❤
In college, 1972, making love in the dorm, Days of Future Past playing softly on the stereo....the memory never dies... Thank you Moody Blues
This is truly Amazing The garbage that is out today shouldnt even be considered music let alone be allowed to be heard, when you have such beautiful songs in the world as "Nights in White Satin" and such legendary bands as the Moody Blues still in existence
Quando ho conosciuto The Moody Blues avevo 14 anni e vennero fuori con questo brano stupendo allora e bellissimo ancora oggi.
The days of GOOD music has gone to the hear ever after and never will be again.
MOODY BLUES CAN KICK ASS ON ANY GROUP TO THIS DAY LOVED THEM IN THE BEGINNING AND WILL TO MY END
Can honestly say that I have Never heard of Dark Shadows; this is just one of an ALL TIME best band that have Ever been "discovered! And will remain being so for generations to come.
ok was born when i heard this beatiful song !My wife was born 10 years later but want to delicate this to her because i love her so mutch!
have been a fan for 40 years...will see them in concert for the first time in Danbury, CT....July 13......looking forward to the magic......
I love this emotional song so much , it still makes me get tears 😢. A great song to send to a loved one , the words and the way Justin sings it is breathtaking ❤️
The flute solo is just magic.
Priceless ever endearing band who deservs the uttmost respect! There will Never be any other!!!!! Harvey Cresswell I miss you! Im sorry!
Absolutely Beautiful - and TIMELESS....so is Justin - and the rest of the band...
now this is music, and what do they produce today "hip-hop" and "rap" after these good old bands are gone the music will never be as good as it was before!!!
I loved and still love this song....I am a total MOODY BLUES fan! I think I am older than they are...
same here! i have grown up with the moody blues thanks to my mother! i did a choreographed dance to tuesday afternoon in first grade, hahahaha. dark shadows was a lovely reminder!
My favorite group when i was 15, in 1972...
Wundervolle Musik.....man was habe ich darauf viel Blues getanzt. Unvergessen.... Night's in White Satin...👍👍Top👍👍💜💚
One of the great tunes songs of all time! The energy of the tune resonates with my soul.
Classic and we must never forget, I am a 70's child and appreciate true music x
Wow... This song has such emotion, and it connects personally with me. My band and I (I am lead singer and lead guitar) always perform this, even if it doesnt fit in. We are mostly blues and classic rock. This is such a slow, classic sounding song. It NEEDS AND DESERVES to be heard by everyone, regardless of age or musical preference.
Justin still has a lovely voice and they have such a wonderful catalog of songs. I'd love to hear the Moodies do a live unplugged concert. Of course this would be huge undertaking for Justin with the demands of singing and accompanying himself on guitar. Maybe it would be more feasible if they invited a special guest guitarist. There's got to be a well known guitarist out there who's a secret admirer of the Moodies that would be interested.
There one of the only bands still around that could do a real come-back,..the main stars are still alive!!
Justin Hayward and John Lennon = my fav singer/song writers. The Moody Blues though, the rest of the band are stellar! amazing.
Omg stop fighting! It doesn't matter when and how u learn this song but please just close your eyes and listen to THAT FLUTE...
Every time I hear this song, I take it to heart. I know she will never read this comment but back in March of 1970 we saw the Moody Blues with Florance, Karen, Jimmy and Charles and of course, me. Its been 41 years since 1970, but every time time I hear this greatest of all love songs I think all the letters I was meaning to send and all the beauty I have missed over all these years. Just what the truth is I can't say any more.
Za ono vreme veliki hit ,a sada opera ,najcesce smo je svirali zaljubljenima
The best song from The Moodly Blues, in my opinion. I love this song, and I love it more because it appears in Dark Shadows.
How can it fucking be that time passes by so fast ? I can almost relate to this song completly. Because, just think about it, 30 years from now, when you look back to the tiime that passed, and that won't ever come back... will it hurt ? Does it hurt moody blues when they think about how they made one of the greatest hits ever, but it was 40 years ago... Will it hurt us ? Will it ? When we are in our 50' and 60' and we think about our 20' and everything that happended ? Will it hurt to see our children go to high schoold, and comming home drunk, when we look back, and remember our parties ? Will it hurt to be too old to re-live our lives, but enough sane to remember every part of it ? Mere knowledge that life is not a game, a new school day, a new workday, a college, a new start, and that we can't do it 'better next time' ... life is what we are given, and it fucking hurts me that i can't stop everyday that passes by... slowly... fast...

+Kirito Kun: well said Kirito Kun, but being in the 50s myself and looking back now I can say that I learned to look at the here and now, because that's what's real. Memories of the past and visions of my future are mere constructs. Everything, everybody is perishable, so what? Don't feel hurt. If you can acknowledge that your true nature is emptiness, then there is nothing there to hurt you. Yep...

If you've lived your life well it won't hurt to grow old. There's a time and a season (yes, I mean, season) for everything and you'll remember your youth with fondness and a bit of nostalgia, but you'll not want it back because the present is always the best time in which to live! So, no, it doesn't hurt to be too old or too young for that matter. I'm 61and very happy, so, don't worry and just Live! All the best
I just love this song..Justin Hayward still looks great..
i went through a whole trip listening to the album, then when the album ended I thought, sheesh I got 18 hours to go LOL back in the 70s Great album
Great music journalist Tomasz Beksinski very likes this song! I love it! RIP Tomku!
Jedinstvena i neponovljiva...mogu je slušati i slušati i slušati, uživati...
A SOUND TO FEED and NOURISH THIRSTY SOULS and HUNGRY EYES
My dream state song. First one I heard...so beautiful. I always whistle the flute solo. Used to play it on my flute. Now it is old...not in good shape. Best time in life...and still enjoying this and other MB songs.
What can be more sensuous than this song?
The Moody Blues set the bar for what I call "Cerebral Rock". If you listen to the message you will understand.
Justin looks like he knows he has the best song on the planet, he is God's gift to women and is so youthful. I love it.. Especially what he does at 1:49. Oh my God!!!
One of the Greatest Songs ever..Beautiful..thanks Justin
I am born in Finland,my favorit is Elvis Presley...the best bands are from U.K....QUEEN..SMOKIE..SLADE ..KINKS..E.L.O ...MOODY BLUES
ONE OF THE FAVOURITE SONGS OF MY DAUGHTER AND MYSELF !

ah happy times dad's a mad fan of the these guys. Although I wish I could say not it was not that long ago. Cough cough 30 years 40 years ago. Like all great things it's still being played.
Piękna piosenka, piękny film Pozdrawiam Iwonka
Born in 1967, what a great year!
The Moody Blues, my favorite Band and favorite piece of music. Nights in White Satin is timeless. And like the band simply timeless. Violetrod couldn't have said it better. The Universe should be thankful for the Moody Blues. When I die, you guessed it, my song, Nights in White Satin. My son died tragically, and so unfortunately before me. yes, the song was there. And will be there for me. The Moody Blues! The greatest orchestrational rock in roll band in human history!
don't forget the good old 60s. they spit out great rock
I got to see the Moodies in East Lansing in the early 90's, while Ray was still with them and what an experience it was! I was taken to see them again, for my birthday, in 2004, but Ray was retired by then. My Mom and I were 75 feet off the stage and it was such a treat to see her basking in the energy of that evening. Fantastic, timeless.
i love this song.i am 46 years old and i have the best memories .thanks MOODY BLUES FOR THE MUSIC.
no "love" button so I click 'like". :-D Who the heck doesn't like this? It is AMAZING
What's Dark Shadows...? I'm here because I love the Moody Blues.
I Love this song and i was born in 98. It's not what I usually listen to (in fact, i'm only here because of a dubstep remix of this song) but I can definately appreciate good music when I hear it.
What a group absolutely outa this world, Justin you are superb, love ya loads
Ein Song, der niemals alt wird. Wahnsinn. So Musik gibt es von den heutigen "Künstlern" leider nicht mehr.
Beautiful song!!!!!! I am From El Salvador Thank You Moody Blues. the best
wow IT'S ENOugh to imagine seeing them in concert but to go woth someone you love wow that has to be just amazing. This song always makes me cry, I'm not sure why but it does.
Such imaginal use of sound and instruments. This version kicks the ass of the studio version. Gives me the feels.
I'll never here either of them the same again, thanks. Both awesome songs but you're right.
May peace bring you what you need, in these troubled times
How do performers keep a song that is almost 50 years old, as fresh today as it was then? Especially after singing it what must have been thousands of times? A classic. Loved it then, love it now. Always will.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written..the Moody Blues deserve to be in the Hall of Fame for this song alone.
This is one of the greatest songs ever!

Now i'm 39 yrs old.... I heard this beautiful song when i was 13 yrs of age...When ever i hear this song .... i cannot hold my feelings..."KEEP IT UP MOODY BLUES"
Ray Thomas Amazing Flute Player,Beautifull Flute solo...
How the time flys...I was just 13 when I heard this song for the first time, Im 50. This are the real stuf, great lirics, great voices, in every song was a message. I really miss the 70's and 80's. We are the one now to keep this bands, songs and singers alive. Cheers to verybody .
nu en binnen 1000 jaar de mooiste slow aller tijden
Just seen Dark Shadows at the movies. Wow the film starts with this song. The WHOLE song. Not just a portion. and played loud. Brilliant
schon in meiner jugendzeit ein besonderer hit. fan h.rujner
Ditto to the previous message, I to am 50 wow yes how time went by. Going to see them 4/13/12 @ Mohegan Sun in CT...can't wait!
im 21 and i saw them last night at the State Theatre in Syd, all in have to say is WOW - MIND = BLOWN
AMAZING TO THINK THIS WAS ORIGINALLY RECORDED IN 1967 .
Probably my favorite song of all time....used to play it over and over and over when I was a kid in high school, hoping someday that someone would feel this way about me...?? Now, at 53 the line , "just what the truth is I can't say anymore" is more apropos to my life! Alas....
Never is want to be another Seventies the music came to stay, and Still here whit us,I am not saying that music that the band's play today is not Good, they doing a great job they have there own Style.
Justin Hayward is awesome. I am happy to see him 2 times in real by war of the worlds,
The legendary Montreux concert...yeah
Perfect Song, Thanks you. Greetings from Walter ULM ( Germany)
this was also 1of my dads top groups and yes what creative song writers it will never date thank you very much
