Yes I agree, truly an angelic man , with an angelic voice.....!!!! I really love this song and the video that goes along with it. Such a very gifted man and performer.So very much love, warmth, and wisdom flows through the lyrics in his songs.Justin enthuses kindness and generosity. A true gentleman amongst men.....!!!! XxxX.
This song always makes me think he was in alot of pain at that time, through his experiences he's reached out to us and made us his fans. I have been in such awe of his musical talents for about 25 years now. He is the voice of an angel, a superman who can touch me with a word, a note, a look from his bright blue eyes. He makes me feel good, hopeful, energized, and every song makes me smile. I hope he has true happiness and joy in his life and continue to sing and tour as long as he can.
I've enjoyed the music of the Moody Blues for over 3 decades now. I've seen them live 3 times. From that exposure, one can really appreciate Justing Hayward's talents as a singer, a songwriter and as a musician. There are many who can excel at one. He excels at all three. He's an exceptional talent in one of the rock era's great bands.
I am 57 years old, and I have been listening to, and loving the Moody Blues' music for years, especially Justin's music. And I now have a renewed respect for him as a songwriter, knowing that several of his songs, like New Horizons, which served as projection screens for my own romantic longings, were actually love songs written to his deceased father. It only makes me love his music, and respect him as an artist, all the more.
@gwesleycrow Just made 59 baby, as men and women in my city can call one another regardless of age differences. Because I grew up with it, I never noticed it until I was in my vogue 3-piece suit (at 29) and ordered a Po-boy across a crowded lunch counter. I had become a self-important professional and forgot I was just another local. I was humbled. So I have feelings, and I thank you for that insight into this song considering I am not a poet.
Love this voice. Love this song. Love this album. I grew up listening to "Seventh Sojourn". My late father had it on vinyl, which I still do have. Thanks for this version, MoodiesFan.
De muziek van de Moody Blues is zo tijdloos. Zo emotievol, zo intens muzikaal. En van al die prachtige songs is New Horizons misschien wel de allermooiste! Misschien... want hoe bepaal je dat? New Horizons raakt mij iedere keer weer diep in mijn ziel. De tekst, de orkestratie, de emotionele spanning van de gitaarsolo (dat ene rifje... kippenvel...) En natuurlijk de prachtige stem van Justin. New Horizons is een geschenk!
Justin Hayward! You have given me so much of my life! Where would I have been without YOU! We have grown old together! What a blessing! I feel that way about so many! I am truly blessed!
@eelise Indeed. He is 6'2" and a fast runner. Considering his enormous energy and drive, he could have been an outstanding wide receiver on an American football team.
@pricla777 Interesting idea considering his seemingly superhuman gifts. His solo videos sitting on that stool with just a guitar and a mic have motivated me to start seeking out professional guitar lessons. I doubt that I have talent because I tried years ago without a tutor, and it was just too hard. But I still have my guitar, and my cousin just bought a 12-string and we have re-hooked up. So we plan to jam together once I can't hold him back. He loves the Moodys too.
In the Red Rocks concert of '94? VHS/DVD I recall Justin saying his father passed during the making of Seventh Sojourn. He was very fond of his father and described him as "gentle."
Beautiful voice, beautiful lyrics, beautiful music, that is what Justin Hayward means for me. I am glad I am a fan. He started out when I wasn't even born, so I'm glad that his music forms part of my childhood's and now adulthood's background music :) God bless you & what you do, Justin. Please keep it up as I simply close my eyes and just listen to your melodious voice & wonderful music.
And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:38-39
This song has long served as my 'special, quiet place' where I retreat to get away from the hassle of the day. I put on the headphones, close eyes and let the song wash away the tension and restore the peace of mind. Thank you Justin.
I just saw the Moodies at Pechanga in Temecula last Friday night, for the fourth time. I never tire of them, and Justin is as good as he ever was. This video is so wonderful, it's beyond words for me.
He is an orchestra with his guitar, especially his twelve-string. It is amazing how he does not use bar chords. You Tube reinvigorates the love for the Moody’s. Notice how rapidly he goes up and down the neck with Questions without bar chords.
New Horizons is one of so many beautiful songs Justin has penned throughout his career. His music is timeless and heartfelt. I never get tired of hearing his music. My life is complete with God and this music.
Who could try to cover this? Justin Hayward; Moody Blues...my all time favorites for many, many years. That Guild JF30-12 is probably the sweetest maple body 12 string guitar I've ever heard. Many copies, only one Guild 12 string...
This song is just absolutely beautiful. Everytime I hear this song it just touches my soul and emotions on every level. Justin has a voice that just peirces your heart with its captivating beauty!! Justin is just so beautiful! Oh how gorgeous of song this is. ILY Justin!! Phenomenal!! ♥♥
I am going to see Justin and The Moody Blues in just 5 more weeks at the Northern Quest Casino in Airway Heights, WA and I cannot wait!!! To see and hear the Moody Blues live is going to be a dream come true. Justin Hayward is one of the best singer/songwriter/musicians to ever live and the Moody Blues music will endure forever. They are THE BEST even after 40+ years.
this selection of studio acoustic versions is just excellent. Justin should consider touring them as a one man show if he's ever at a loose end......Cambridge folk festival headline act for 2011 i reckon...
@MultiDean75 This may be my last Moodies concert but I'll try my best to make it to the 2011 April 29th @ Cynthia-Woods if at all possible.Wish me luck, no way they'll even think of doing this version but thanks to MoodiesFan bunches for the upload.......................and to pen another favorite...Till The Day We Meet Again ! Lifelong Fan lcadams2
Heartbreakingly beautiful song.....breathtakingly beautiful man.... Justin has such a wonderful talent and a beautiful voice,,,,,, Simply fantastic as a songwriter and a musician......LOVE LOVE LOVE Justin ......
This is my ALL-TIME #1 favorite song. It very literally saved my life when I was 17. Was two steps away from suicide after my first love dumped me for my best friend (the "nightmare come true"). This song...the lyrics...helped me move on with grace and hope. THANK YOU, Justin. For my life...35 years later. :)
Kinda funny as I used to listen to the moody blues when I was 17 and depressed and it made me worse. I'm married with 3 kids now and I'm listening to them again. Only kidding, it seems different now, don't know why.
He does a nice job, slows the song down a bit, those 12 strings take time to play and resonate nicely,,,,nice job Justin,,,,from a long-time guitar player myself....proud of you, mate!
This song has always touched my heart so deeply!! Such a powerful song full of real emotion that just pulls at your heart strings and the tears just flow!! Justin's voice just gets deep in your soul!! So beautiful!! What a beautiful man he is in all aspects!! His voice is so angelic!! I hope that I find my peace of mind some day as well!! Phenomenal!! ILY Justin!! ♥
I've loved this song since I first heard it when my brother played it on my parents HiFi turntable in 1972. Though the initial version on the Seventh Sojourn Album is amazing, this solo version is by far the best. So personal, so beautiful. Thank you Justin and thanks for sharing.
We were looking for the perfect song to play as we signed the register at our recent wedding - it had to be this one and the non Moodies fans in the audience promptly commented how beautiful and appropriate it was. How right they were - and the song played as we left the ceremony? ' I know You're Out There Somewhere' - a great day!!
@redtoupee First, congrats on the wedding! The music is perfect for this and the non-Moodies fans are starting to get what we already know, their music just gets better with time.
Yes, jtsantafe, Justin sang this at the concert! It was a FREE show at the M&I Bank classic rock stage, at Summerfest. The seating was first come, first served...... and fortunately I got to sit in the EIGHTH ROW!!!!! The show was FANTASTIC!!! (((( BIG SMILE)))) Needless to say...... I took alot of pics.
Jinchengfan.... My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. The Moodies can sure stir up the emotions and send you places. Everyone grieves in their own way and there's no set "time" to stop. I lost my 23 year old cat back in March and certain Moody songs do it for me when I'm thinking of him. I don't mean to compare my loss with yours.... I think you understand. God Bless and keep being strong for you, your son and your family. :)
Marie is one lucky lady to have such a wonderful man to share her life with. I 've never heard anyone, who's met Justin, say anything bad about him. I'll be seeing The Moodies tommorrow @ Milwaukee's Summerfest.... and really hope to hear this song. LOVE ,LOVE, LOVE THE MOODIES!!!!! XXOXOXOO
@truebluefan36 Just curious if they played this when you saw them; it's been a long time since I've been able to see them, but was fortunate to have seen it done live. Hope you got to enjoy it live also.
New Horizons was playing in the background when I was proposed to. My husband and I have been married for 10 years now. This song is especially meaningful to me in more ways than one!
I wonder if he has found his "own peace of mind" as the song says? World class songwriter and singer, absolutely puts the garbage music of today to shame.
i have the moody blues box set every song on it is brilliant. justin hayward just has one of those voices that fits the songs he sings.he puts heart in his voice. seventh sojourn is my favorite moodies cd.
This song saved my life. I was feeling suicidal after the death of my son....while planning to do myself in, I thought 'What would I miss the most when I'm gone'....and put on some Moody Blues music. This song started playing and I couldn't do it. Thank you , Justin Hayward. I've found so much more to live for since that day. God bless you for saying what I needed to hear on that day, no matter how many times i had heard it before.
@Jinchengfan God bless you. I have had an experience with similarities. Some of these songs evoke intense feelings now. Just like life -pain and bliss. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Cherish life.
@Jinchengfan I totally relate to your post. I was 17 years old when this very song saved me from doing myself in. It helped me see a way through heartbreak and loss, with hope and dignity. Justin is truly an angel....I just wonder how many other lives he's saved. xo
A beautiful song-originally recorded in 1972, but this wonderful performance is from 2004 or 2005. It is so refreshing a song that it could have been a brand new song today and done well, IMO
This gives me goosebumps everytime I watch it, the emotion that flows through the lyrics, watching Justin and his daughter, the lovely guitar, its enough to choke anyone up.
Justin has it all: great songwriter, great singer, great musician. This is a stripped-down version of one of his most beautiful songs, and his performance is beyond fantastic.
This is one of the reasons I bought records! What a voice, musician, lyrics. I didn't know he wrote this song about his Dad. My Dad passed away a couple of years ago and I don't miss him. I often told him I loved him and appreciated what a good man he was. There were difficult times between us but he always meant well and I am a better man and father for having had him in my life. No regrets Dad, I love you!
He's playing in FADFAF. But, I would be concerned about creating too much stress on the neck of a 12-string by tuning the more heavy gauge top pair of strings up to F. So, I have my 12-string tuned to DADFAF and have learned to play it in this tuning. Works quite well.
I stand corrected. DADFAC works much better. Except it looks like he may be playing with the top strings open, in which case it would have to be FADFAC. But. I'm not going to push my luck. Now, if I could only sing as good as him, maybe I could quit my day job.
My God what an incredible collection of songs Justin and the rest of The Moody Blues are leaving for the world to enjoy. I've been a fan for most of my life and will be to the end. I never tire of this amazing music.
Justin said he wrote this song after the birth of his daughter Doremi. He said it changed his outlook on life completely. "Love for 3" is him, his wife Marie and his new child. The "precious gift" is the life and upbringing from his parents. The song is a tribute to his parents for his past and his looking to the future as a parent. The "nightmare" is the death of his father. This is not dubbed. it on a dvd i have but can't recall. Justin is one of the worlds best guitar players.
Oh lord....that voice.....

This is one one of my favorite Moodies songs. Justin's in terrific voice. I didn't realize he did this unplugged version.
Wouldn't this be amazing with a symphony orchestra?

@misterjag Find the Live at Red Rocks DVD. He does this with an orchestra. It's beautiful

I wonder if he has found his "own peace of mind" as the song says? World class songwriter and singer, absolutely puts the garbage music of today to shame.

This song saved my life. I was feeling suicidal after the death of my son....while planning to do myself in, I thought 'What would I miss the most when I'm gone'....and put on some Moody Blues music. This song started playing and I couldn't do it. Thank you , Justin Hayward. I've found so much more to live for since that day. God bless you for saying what I needed to hear on that day, no matter how many times i had heard it before.

@Jinchengfan God bless you. I have had an experience with similarities. Some of these songs evoke intense feelings now. Just like life -pain and bliss. Thank you for sharing your thoughts. Cherish life.

@Jinchengfan I totally relate to your post. I was 17 years old when this very song saved me from doing myself in. It helped me see a way through heartbreak and loss, with hope and dignity. Justin is truly an angel....I just wonder how many other lives he's saved. xo

loosedeeee-"Moodies. Right behind The Beatles! What an honor."
Umm, I don't think so. I've never heard a Beatles song that reaches in and touches the soul like this or so many other Moodies songs.
This song is about soaring beyond the nightmare come true and ending up with peace of mind. What's the Beatles best song?
Yesterday? About being all depressed and wishing you were in the past? C'mon! There's just no comparison!
The Moodies leave the Beatles in the dust. And they are still around!

A beautiful song-originally recorded in 1972, but this wonderful performance is from 2004 or 2005. It is so refreshing a song that it could have been a brand new song today and done well, IMO

This is one of the reasons I bought records! What a voice, musician, lyrics. I didn't know he wrote this song about his Dad. My Dad passed away a couple of years ago and I don't miss him. I often told him I loved him and appreciated what a good man he was. There were difficult times between us but he always meant well and I am a better man and father for having had him in my life. No regrets Dad, I love you!

Justin still sounds great after all these years. He really retained his singing voice.
Unlike Paul McCartney--one of my favorite singers..but let's face it, he's lost his voice almost completely to old age/smoking?
MaryOMackie 3 years ago
What tuning is he in for this?
wmboling 3 years ago
He's playing in FADFAF. But, I would be concerned about creating too much stress on the neck of a 12-string by tuning the more heavy gauge top pair of strings up to F. So, I have my 12-string tuned to DADFAF and have learned to play it in this tuning. Works quite well.
justiwanabe 3 years ago
Turns out it is DADFAC.
wmboling 3 years ago 2
I stand corrected. DADFAC works much better. Except it looks like he may be playing with the top strings open, in which case it would have to be FADFAC. But. I'm not going to push my luck. Now, if I could only sing as good as him, maybe I could quit my day job.

Justin said he wrote this song after the birth of his daughter Doremi. He said it changed his outlook on life completely. "Love for 3" is him, his wife Marie and his new child. The "precious gift" is the life and upbringing from his parents. The song is a tribute to his parents for his past and his looking to the future as a parent. The "nightmare" is the death of his father. This is not dubbed. it on a dvd i have but can't recall. Justin is one of the worlds best guitar players.
