Blows your mind does'nt it What perfection, from such gifted musicians.I did not know that dear Graeme had written this ......I always wanted to be a drummer/ singer. Brilliant composition.
Almost forgot how much I like that album. I happen to love Graeme's voice and his occasional songwriting efforts were always well worth a listen. Not too many bands can pull off a 5-part harmony. Thanks for posting!
Hayward, Lodge and Thomas with Pinder doing the course bit. Edge was not a good singer at all. Pinder was by far the best singer in the band, then Hayward, Thomas and Lodge. But hey these 4 guys were very good singers and you could make out every word. I'll tell you something else I have played guitar since I was 18 (now 60) and Hayward is right up there with the best.
@Northcarolinian Except it 's a bit hard to tell who's lead. Graeme can be heard in the phrases "of my wall" "way to fall" "risiing from the sea" etc.
You are quite welcome! This song should have been released as a single. Now I have posted songs written by each Moody Blues member (Lodge, Hayward, Thomas, Pinder and Edge).

Punk? More like proto metal. I think this is probably the heaviest MB song.

For some short time for awhile, you and I
were joined to eternity.
Then we split in two, back to me and you
like the rain rising from the sea.
What a poignant image, truly inspired music and lyrics.

Who was the Moody Blue with the highest pitched voice? His voice is most prominent in(on?)the Moody Blues' 7 classic albums.
