We love the Moody Blues! In fact, Nights in White Satin is "our" song!

[Joyce]

My mum loved Go Now from way back in the 60's she loved the Seekers too, the original band.  Her song was "I'll never find another you" we'd lost my dad around that time.

What about "The Carnival is over"? Mum loved it and bought the record for us all to enjoy, [except for one of my brothers] who was only into Elvis and Roy Orbison.

Didn't the lead singer with the Seekers have a beautiful voice?  Judith Durham, I think. I recently bought their greatest hits CD (I still like my CDs although I've got some music on-line as well).

The Sweet Greyhoundgirl!
I liked the lead singer Brian Conley or Conelly was it? Can you remember?
The New Seekers too.Had posters  of these and sweet plus loads of Donny Osmond and a big one of David Cassidy.I remember saving golden wonder crisp packets to get 3 posters one of Donny Osmond,David Cassidy and I think the other one was,a bit random,Steve McQueen which I gave away.
Those were the days!

The seekers.My dad was mad on Judith Durham,Jenny.
The carnival is over is lovely,my fave of theirs CM.
Go now by the moody blues is one of my fave 60s song Cubagirl.

Oh your so right Morwenna,
I have always loved music and associated it with different events, times in my life, but since I lost my lovely mum last year I just cannot listen to it now. There seems to be a memory in every song I hear, and I just can't hold back the tears. 

[Joyce]

San I was a Moody Blues fan back in the day, but since breaking up with a 'bad boyfriend' in 1978 who was also a big fan (my first ever 'proper' relationship too  ) I can no longer listen to them

Made me smile, it was my first "proper" boyfriend who introduced me to some of their album stuff.  We split too.  I've never listened to them since either.

It's so true that music can prompt memories. The reason I still listen to them is they take me back to a time which has a lot of happy memories for me.

Best of Bread has a similar effect. Some nice mellow tunes to chill to on that album too.

I also like light classical music. Got that love from my days at school and playing in the orchestra. Bach, Mozart and Schubert to name a few.
That with a bath and glass of something go together like cheese & crackers 

[Joyce]

I had that one too San.  Used to listen to it as I was going to bed at night, very relaxing. 

[Dyan]

I can't listen to Stevie Wonders song "Lately".
It was playing the day my then boyfriend( now my Hubby ) was going away to London to work for 18 mths leaving me in Norfolk.

Another one is "In Dreams" by Roy Orbison my dads favourite which I had played
at his funeral 18 yrs ago.

[Christine662]

Michael Jackson - One Day In YOur Life

always gets me teary...

Happy song for me is, Carpenters - Only Just Begun

[silverlady]

I still can't listen to the music from "Out of Africa" it was my mums favourite film and we had it played at her funeral.

Music is very powerful.

Hi Silverlady

I agree, it can make you lower listening to sad stuff or ones that bring back memories.

I choose my radio station each morning depending on my mood.

[silverlady]

So true Stumpy "Wind beneath my wings"  "The Power of Love" and "I want to know what love is" were amongst the songs that my OH put

onto a cassette for me when we first met, they still have the power to stir me when I hear them.
