    Hello everyone - we were so gratified by the response of those who viewed and enjoyed Justin's wonderful performance that we uploaded a second Justin Hayward concert from October 2021, including 4 videos from Mike Dawes solo as the warmup act. . Here is the link for Forever Autumn from that concert. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyzjDU2tios

    How on earth has this guy kept his voice in check at his age? Simply remarkable. 👏
  • @stanf7862
    67 now I wish I could listen without tears falling from my eyes. Some of you will understand.
  • @sammybeck7794
    I have a lump in my throat just hearing the onset of the song. At his young age of 76 his voice is absolutely beautiful and his guitar playing is still immaculate
  • Doesn’t everyone miss the artwork on the album sleeves of the mid sixties and seventies of so many of the bands of that era?❤
  • @mbapache64
    Good stuff. For those not familiar, Jeff Wayne’s War of the Worlds is an outstanding story album. Richard Burtons narration is superb!
  • @davidroga6508
    Seeing this live is amazing. I thought it was too difficult to perform. Justin’s voice is simply out of this world. The flute work is just crazy and the music is sensational. How he does this song live is mind boggling. Just sensational.
  • @joemachunda
    Justin never trashed his voice schreeching rock songs. Not his style. What a lovely song and man. Thanks Justin

    My wife died two years ago, this song is the one that breaks me every time I hear it. This live performance is just as powerful as the album version.

    This song always brings tears to my eyes and l’m 63 and approaching the autumn of my life. Seems such a long time ago when I first heard this beautiful song.

    My wife were only dating when the war of the worlds came out. Forever Autumn became our song, we even called our son Justin.

    This takes me back to the 70s listening to that incredible album and looking at the amazing sleeve art work.

    A weeper. Gorgeous. Simply lovely. As Justin said he usually didn't record other people's material, but in this case, to his surprise, it worked out wonderfully. The lyrics are sad and reflective. It's Justin's voice that fuels the emotions in this beautiful ballad. When I first heard this tearjerker of a tune in 1978, I thought it was an original by the Moody Blues because it was their style. It peaked at #5 in the UK. This song chokes me up whenever I hear it. I think of loved ones who are no longer here. Ty, JH.

    Karmen’s Flute part is simply amazing as it effortlessly meanders between Justin’s Voice, and the 2 Guitars. Absolutely Beautiful!!! ❤❤❤

    Played during my sisters funeral, when they showed photographs of her from a baby to her death. So beautiful, so sad.
  • @gibsalisbury
    One of the many many Moody Blues beautiful songs. Well done Justin. You sound exactly the same as when you first recorded this masterpiece.
  • Justin was so freaking beautiful in his early years! Also. I consider “Nights in White Satan” to be the most beautiful song ever written.
