I love this song! The combination of Mike's words, his gorgeous orchestrations and his warm, mellow voice resonant with love and compassion, always brings tears to my eyes and lifts my spirit. Who needs therapy? All you need to be whole and at peace is in Mike's message in this song. It's so simple-we just have to choose.
WOW! I didn't know this particular version! Such heartbreakin' beauty! It sure felt great being in your early twenties - that's how old I was when I first heard "Octave"! All the best from Portugal, Mike!
i saw mike a few months ago in los angeles for the mellotron movie,great guy,someone brought a mellotron there and he played it a little bit oh yea i might post a little of it on you tube ,the egyptian theater. keep on thinking free!
Mike WAS the core of The moody blues, the centre, the heart the genius the main man. Justin had the touch but Mike gave that finesse to the songs. Mike was that cosmic sound!
Dec. 27th - Happy 70th birthday Mike Pinder! I wish you all the best always!
Thanks for all the beauty lad. a fan since 1867. peace.

Super good, he was a backbone for the incredible Moody Blues. Mike Pinder & Moody Blues were the meaning of super group.

This is incredible! Mike could always get the best out of his keyboard. I miss him not being with the Moodies.
