wow... these guys manifested so many notions of truth in the young lad I was (when I had hair :) sometimes its hard to bear the flood of memories these brilliant compositions invoke. The Moody Blues experience will always remain timeless for me.
For a long time, I thought "On the Threshold of a Dream" was their best album, alond with "Days of Future Passed", but this entire album, Seventh Sojourn is right up there with all of them. The quality of work these guys put out with their first 4 -5 albums was truly amazing. To have that kind of musical talent and genius to match lryical ability, with orchestral arrangements, musical creativity and harmonies all in one, is once in a generation talent.
My favorite Moody Blues song, you don't hear anything like this anymore...the lyrics...simple but beautiful...hell, let's bring back the 70's, a time where music actually had heart and meaning, and the lyrics were more than words, they were an art, and what was so great was that, being the 70's, great lyrics were written to so many great songs, when the writers were probably high and stoned! Thats how good they were! =D
This is a song of pure beauty and magic. So touching to one's soul. The Moody Blues are such an inspiring band to your heart, emotions and soul. Just beautiful!! The Moody Blues!! xx♥
used to love this band. Last night i had a very relaxing time listening to one of my all time fav albums, "machine head" by deep purple. When i was traveling thru the far east i used to play moody blues songs in a restaurant in Afghanistan. Wow!
I remember a TV program (introduced by Dave Lee Travis?) a few years ago where classic songs were given new video interpretations; this was one and it really made me cry! Still brings a lump to my throat now - totally beautiful song!
@uksalesmanager I remember the prog too.It was from the late 80's or early 90's. I think it was called 'before we had videos' or something equally crass.But it was good.. I assume the BBC have wiped all the tapes,
Da qui nasce tutta la Musica Pop quella vera, suonata col cuore senza pensare se arriverà in vetta alle classifiche. I Moodies sono autentici musicisti, gente che la Musica l'ha sempre concepita perchè è vita e senza Musica non si vive.Da qui hanno tratto ispirazione mille bands, compresi i nostri Pooh degli anni 70. Che canzone meravigliosa, chi poteva scrivere una tale perla? A me viene da piangere ogni volta che la sento, se non conoscete l'Inglese vi perdete una Meraviglia.
Vedrei benissimo i Pooh eseguirla in italiano!!!!! Andrebbero al numero 1 nella Hit Parade cantata da Roby ovviamente e con Stefano ancora alla batteria...Se fossimo ancora nel 1975....
Yea Tula, that is great music from one of many great artists. So many songs can truly bring out the best in people. You must be an amazing person! I have been pulling together a collection of songs that pull on the heart string. It is fun! I am up to 99 songs so far. Ranging from 1954 till today. Art in its purest form for sure! It makes you ponder on just what made any musician come up with that sound. Think about it, as you listen to this song for instance. Simply amazing!
@waterforpeople I can so relate to your post. To 'see' them at their soul level..their beauty is awesome and bright. But their eyes and heart do not see...what's right in front of them, or within. Very sad, to walk this walk. Best of luck to you.
I can't help but think that this song was very influential on Queen's style, at least their bombastic, operatic stuff. But of course, no one can match these guys. My favorite band of all time.
@GlorifiedTruth Opera was probably the source of their operatic stuff. Certainly prog rock was also there, since it and opera involve orchestral sound, but Queen was much more synth-oriented.
Sembrano i Pooh dei tempi andati. O quanto meno nella capacità di tessere melodie mai stucchevoli. Moody Blues restano profondi conoscitori di certa musica pop-sinfonico...o cosa?
one of their best songs ever!!!!!!!!! :) beautiful.......thanks for sharing this emotional song
