"Nights in White Satin" is a song by the Moody Blues, written and composed by Justin Hayward. It was first featured as the segment "The Night" on the album Days of Future Passed. When first released as a single in 1967, it reached number 19 on the UK Singles Chart and number 103 in the United States in 1968. It was the first significant chart entry by the band since "Go Now" and its recent lineup change, in which Denny Laine and Clint Warwick had resigned and both Hayward and John Lodge had joined.
When reissued in 1972, the single hit number two in the United States for two weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 (behind "I Can See Clearly Now" by Johnny Nash) and hit number one on the Cash Box Top 100. It earned a gold certification for sales of over a million US copies (platinum certification was not instituted until 1976). It also hit number one in Canada. After two weeks at #2, it was replaced by "I'd Love You to Want Me" by Lobo. It reached its highest UK position this year at number 9. Although the song did not enter the official New Zealand chart, it reached #5 on the New Zealand Listener's chart compiled from the readers' votes in 1973.
The two single versions of the song were both stripped of the orchestral and "Late Lament" poetry sections of the LP version. The first edited version, with the songwriter's credit shown as "Redwave", was a hasty-sounding 3:06 version of the LP recording with very noticeable chopped parts. However, many versions of the single are listed on the labels at 3:06, but in fact are closer to the later version of 4:26.

Loved them in 1965 when Denny Laine led them. The again in 1967 when Justin and John joined Graeme, Ray, and Mike. I’ve never seen this performance before! Justin sings like an angel, Graeme’s on fire, Mike is a whole symphony by himself on the mellotron, and Ray plays the sweetest flute solo ever. Sad that we lost Denny, Ray, and Graeme.

Can you tell I’m a fan? One of my autistic obsessions. ❤

The Moody Blues.
My first concert, Buffalo New York, right after 'To Our Children's Children's Children' was released.
I'll never forget it...and this song and its excellent sound mix brought back the memory.

Fabulous band. Thanks for posting this. I saw them once at the outdoor Jones Beach Theatre on a summer night with my best buddies. The sound was incredible. It was epic..

A great version of a song that never grows old.
Thanks.

This song combines medieval melodies with their spiritual air and purity with lounge music beats, and an undercurrent of epicness.

They performed this at the Isle of Wight Festival in 1970, one of the largest and very last of the big hippie rock festivals. Fun fact: a number of the acts that performed at the festival dropped dead from overdoses within a year. 1970 was a great year to OD.

One of the British Invasion bands that went beyond transforming. They became symphonic and the message progressed to a spiritual awakening. They like the Beatles just got better and better.

I remember hearing this song as a kid. The melody always kinda creeped me out.
