♪ The original melody Forever Autumn was written by Jeff Wayne in 1969 as a jingle for a Lego commercial. Vigrass and Osborne, the performers of the original jingle, added lyrics to the song and recorded it for inclusion on their 1972 album Queues.

The best-known version is the recording by Justin Hayward, which is the one I used. It is from the album Jeff Wayne's musical version of The War of the Worlds. Wayne wanted to include a love song on the album that sounded like Forever Autumn, and he decided that the best course of action was to simply use the original song. Justin Hayward of The Moody Blues was hand-picked by Jeff Wayne to sing it, and it was recorded at London's Advision Studios in 1976. The song reached #5 on the UK Singles Chart in July 1978.

  • So Beautiful views!

  • @petitNinja07 Thank you, have a great day and take care

  • I remember hearing this song way back in high school and loving it. I lost track of the song name and singer. I have tried desperately to find this song over the years when I pleasantly stumbled across it recently. Love it even more now. Beautifully done video. Where was this video shot? My 13, 11 and 8 year old kids love this song also. Classic!! P.S. My kids want to know what the critter swimming in the water is in frame 1:08. Thanks!

  • @123FriskyBunny I am so glad all of you enjoyed it. I think it is a little water bug at that frame. Have a nice day and take care!

  • Great video and song.

    The photo at 1:41 is absolutely amazing. Is there a site where I could download a copy of it?

    Thanks

  • Thank you; I am sorry I do not have it uploaded anywhere else but here. Have a great day.
