I love that incredible 7 album run from 1967 through 1972. Amazing. I imagine you're probably referring to their 2nd through 8th albums. Their first album had different personnel and very different music from the rest of their early work. It's a largely unknown album these days, so most everyone thinks of Days of Future Passed as their 1st.

This is a song that shows the band getting tired of people perceiving them as having all the answers. Their music and lyrics were really searching and introspective, and some of their fans saw them as gurus. They were searching too, and their music/lyrics were deep and felt personal, and I hope you get to hear more of their material. Someone below mentioned that their seven albums from Days of Future Past (with "Nights in White Satin" and "Tuesday Afternoon") through The Seventh Sojourn (with this song) contain much of their best material, and I agree, even though I discovered them in the 1980s. "The Story in Your Eyes" and "Question" are worth it, and I'll also add "In the Beginning/Lovely to See You" and "Watching and Waiting"!

Lots of great songs such as "Go Now", "The Story In Your Eyes", "Question", "Isn't Life Strange", "Ride My See-Saw", "Gemini Dream", "The Voice" etc. All of their music is great! Many of their records are concept albums & meant to be listened to all at once.

Not quite, their 1st album, The Magnificent Moodies, was mostly blues covers, having their breakthrough hit, Go Now, which was also a cover. This was, what the band referred to, as the Moody Blues, mark 1. Denny Laine (later, of Wings) was the guitarist and lead singer, with Clint Warwick on bass, and then 3 guys associated with the "classic" lineup, Graeme Edge on drums, Mike Pinder on keys, and Ray Thomas on woodwinds. It is albums 2 through 8, that are called the "core 7" albums, with John Lodge replacing Warwick, and Justin Hayward replacing Laine, that comprise their peak period.

The history of this song goes back to a concert in Texas....There was a Moody Blues Fan that believed the Moody Blues were Spiritual Messengers sent here to change the earth and to save the world... The Moody Blues played the Texas Venue. After the Concert, the fan was very disappointed when he found out that they were just people and became upset with the band.... (so, we need to thank that fan in Texas for the inspiration of this song... thank you) I personally believe that is is one of their most powerful songs.

The pictures were album covers or gate-folds from their albums. This is from their "classic lineup" period, and all five band members composed songs, each having a distinct style, giving the band's sound variety. Nights in White Satin and Tuesday Afternoon were written by Guitarist Justin Hayward, who tended towards balladry, although his hard rocking Story In Your Eyes, is my favorite Moody Blues tune. I'm Just a Singer, is from bassist, John Lodge, who, wrote some great rockers like this and Ride My See Saw. Lodge could toss off ballads too, Isn't Life Strange and One More Time to Live, are stellar. For I'm Just a Singer, Lodge was feeling frustrated that by the end of the turbulent 60's with various protests, wars and riots, some fans were viewing the band as messianic, and having answers to world problems. After this album, the band took a 3 year hiatus, and while they did reform for Octave, Pinder an early driving force for the band, was disenchanted with the Rock and Roll lifestyle, and, having some personal problems with Edge, left the band, as they started a 3rd phase of their careers.

The Moody Blues made a comeback in 1981 and charted big with an album called "Long Distance Voyager" and a song called "The Voice". It's up-tempo, and a Listening Experience as well. Then later on in the Eighties, their last two big hits were "Wildest Dreams" and "I Know You're Out There Somewhere" - two midtempo pop songs that are two of my favorites. Please react to "The Story in Your Eyes". It's a great Rock Song.

For me growing up in the seventies, the album, this is the moody blues, a double album of their hits and additional songs was my favorite. Now I love all of their albums. Got to see them in concert several times. I was a little jealous of the people that saw them in the sixties because I read they use to be known for giving very long concerts. 😂😂😂

The sounds you hear are often played on a Mellotron, one of the original electronic keyboard instruments. As someone else mentioned, be sure you also listen to Emerson, Lake and Palmer, a progressive rock supergroup. Keith Emerson was one of the best keyboard players you've ever heard. There is a video of the song Knife Edge which will show you their style.

They also put I'm Just A Singer out as a single...... Most albums you have to listen right through as they tell a story with each song......This is a long journey but so well worth it.

Too lazy to go look as I have most of these albums, lol. Check out 'The Story In Your Eyes'. (1971) ** Important ** Some Moody Blues songs should to be played along with it's intro tune for the best experience. I hope some of these combo's have been what you've heard. 'Departure' / 'Ride My See-Saw' (1968) from the 'In Search of The Lost Cord' album. Must be played together, 'Departure' is only 45 seconds long btw. 'In The Beginning' / 'Lovely To See You' (1969) from 'On The Threshold of a Dream. Each a stand alone but best played together. Cheers.

If you have seen concert, photos, video of Paul McCartney & Wings, there was one other consistent member, Denny Lane. Denny co-wrote with Paul, played guitar, played Bass during concert if Paul wanted to guitar. Denny was with the Moody's from 1964-'66. He sang on their first hit "Go now". Mow when the Moody Blues were inducted in the Rock Hall in 2018, Denny was included with them. He originally wasn't. I recall an interview, where Justin believed Denny was in with Wings. Wings had a rotation of members, -so only Paul McC' went in solo. Justin went and asked the Rock Hall to go back ,and ad Denny in their group as an original member. That was very "cool" of The Moody's to do. Denny died recently in Dec'2023. And, the Moody's should have been in the Hall years earlier!!

This band, which I didn't realize until a few years ago, is English with two vocalists. As I listen to them know I've made a discovery - at least for me. I think 🤔 the most similar American group, to The Moody Blues, was a seventies powerhouse named Chicago. Chicago relied on horns and orchestral arrangements. Only difference - Chicago had a much longer career span (nearly 17 years), put out 22 albums and did more ballads. Similar in material. If you didn't know better you'd swear THIS is a Chicago tune. I did until a DJ said otherwise. Great musicians in both groups.

"I'm Just a Singer ( In A Rock and Roll Band)" peaked at #12.

I heard the song writer, bassist John Lodge, say that he wrote the lyrics out of frustration because the band's fans would continually come to the musicians for answers about larger questions of the meaning of life. Apparently, because the Moody Blues tended to invoke cosmic themes, people thought they had some kind of special insight. In the song, Lodge was saying that the musicians really didn't know anything more than anyone else, despite the mysticism of their lyrics and the spaciousness of their music.

Agree with folks who say that pretty much anything from the Core Seven albums is worth a listen. There are so many good songs that I've never been able to pick out a top three favourites, or even a top ten. Nights in White Satin, of course, but after that it could be just about any track from any of the core seven albums. For My Lady from Seventh Sojourn is nearly always in my list, but after that it's often whatever I listened to last. And then there's the fact that several were "concept albums" where listening to the whole thing is an immersive experience and the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. They continued to produce some beautiful albums for years after those seven, but to me none of them were like "every song on this is great". Despite the contempt from music critics, they have a huge and loyal following, of which I'm a proud member. They're the only band that I have more than three of their albums (a dozen or so, not counting a few 'best-of' ones), mostly on vinyl.

A couple of suggestions from their later work are The Voice, Gemini Dream, and The Other Side Of Life.

It is accompanied by a full symphony orchestra and is one of the finest live videos I have ever seen. Don't pass that up. The Moody Blues are such a big part of symphonic prog rock at the beginning. The same stands for Emerson, Lake and Palmer also, who also have some fantastic tracks.

What a composition. The lyrics fit the melody (and they're a groove to sing), the melody fits the rhythm. The guitar solo could be written as a symphony. One of my all time favorite songs. So, I thought about doing a big performance of this in a concert, it would be like all the greats, plus me I guess. They'd come out for a cameo, and sing and play. Smokey Robinson with Henry Rollins. Bob Dillon and Buckethead... I'm just throwing the idea out there...Axl? 🤔

🇨🇦 The best music has come between 1959 - 1989 and if you are keeping score, more songs from this era are Vibrant, Energetic, Happy, Upbeat, Original, and Creative compared to the so called music of today ! 🇨🇦

Man I miss concept albums. By this album they had gained an almost religious/cult status with a lot of fans. Their telling them "we're just singers in a rock&roll band". I think the only artist who still attempts stuff at this level (but it takes her awhile) is Kate Bush. You should react to her "Nocturn" off Aerial". She takes you to another world.

According to John Lodge, bass player, who wrote this song, people were using the Moody's songs as, "a new beginning, heaven, on earth, etc.," and they were looking at the Moody's to lead them into the new "Promised Land." As John said, "We're just singers in a rock and roll band. We're nothing special."

"The Story in Your Eyes" is also a high-energy ride.

Melancholy Man is an excellent choice to check out. The Balance is also similar in subject matter

There's a great live performance of this one here on YT I wish you had viewed. I normally don't prefer a live performance, but this one is killer. 👍👍

The only instrument on this besides the usual (guitars, sax, piano, etc.) is the Melotron. It was an early electronic instrument using analog tape instead of digital signals. It was kind of an early synthesizer without the fourier drivers.

The Hayward/Lodge 1975 LP "Bluejays" and Hayward's 1977 solo LP "Songwriter" are fantastic listens.
