Days of Future Passed by The Moody Blues
January 13, 2009 | Danville, Pennsylvania | Vetting explained
This was the first album of music I listened to after my near death experience that moved me. Nights in White Satin expressed in words and music the feelings I experienced.
Today some forty years later, I am still moved by that song as well as others on this album.
I believe that music can change how we think and influences us in subtle ways.
An excerpt of the lyrics...
"Beauty I'd always missed
With these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can't say anymore
'Cause I love you
Yes I love you
Oh how I love you
Gazing at people
Some hand in hand
Just what I'm going through
They can't understand
Some try to tell me
Thoughts they cannot defend
Just what you want to be
You will be in the end"
