Moody Blues, The - Are You Sitting Comfortably Lyrics






Take another sip my love and see what you will see,
A fleet of golden galleons, on a crystal sea.
Are you sitting comfortably?
Let Merlin cast his spell.

Ride along the winds of time and see where we have been,
The glorious age of Camelot, when Guinevere was Queen.
It all unfolds before your eyes
As Merlin casts his spell.

The seven wonders of the world he'll lay before your feet,
In far-off lands, on distant shores, so many friends to meet.
Are you sitting comfortably?
Let Merlin cast his spell.

Moody Blues, The Are You Sitting Comfortably Comments
  1. L.... P....

    More than apparent that the Moody Blues had seen the inside of a Music Conservatory as surely as a Tzaddik Rabbi saw the study halls of a Yeshiva and Kollel...Brilliant young men were this band back in the 1960s...Now they reside in the Palace of Immortality..."a Golden Age of Camelot when Guinevere was Queen..."

  2. J.... T....

    Encore une chanson intemporelle qui defie le temps. Ma jeunesse qui défile en écoutant cette chanson, avec tous ces paysages qui se confondent aux images qui couvr(ai)ent les pochettes des Moody Blues, qui à elles seules transform(ai)ent ces oeuvres en un vrai univers.

    Extremely ethereal ! Blissful. I start daydreaming and going into other worlds within my own mind. This music is so, so very aesthetic. I could listen to it over and over. It hits my heart strings. Aarre Peltomaa

  4. B.... M....

    WE must stop the destruction of the earth. And corporate greed. Love IS the answer.Trump IS not the chosen one all of us are chosen to make a difference. Witch way WE chose will deliver us.

  5. M.... N....

    Yes I am

  6. w.... ....

    I love Norda's jazzier solo, and Karmen's is more simple like Rays. All three great!

  7. C.... a....

    My GAWD I love this song. And NOW, 50 years later, I can finally listen to it stoned and NOT be breaking the law!

  8. P.... G....

    How can you compare this to today's shite

  9. c.... z....

    Take another sip my love and see what you will see,
    A fleet of golden galleons, on a crystal sea.
    Are you sitting comfortably?
    Let Merlin cast his spell.
    Ride along the winds of time and see where we have been,
    The glorious age of Camelot, when Guinevere was Queen.
    It all unfolds before your eyes
    As Merlin casts his spell.
    The seven wonders of the world he'll lay before your feet,
    In far-off lands, on distant shores, so many friends to meet.
    Are you sitting comfortably?
    Let Merlin cast his spell.

    The Moody blues are the magical mystery tour!

    Take another sip my love and see what you will see,

    Threshold of a Dream was their best album!

  13. s.... h....

    Trippy, man. Make me want to drop a microdot.

  14. S.... G....

    Wow. I just connected some things. I'd heard this many times by 1973. In December that year, I was meditating and had a 3D vision of Jupiter close on, hanging low in the sky, but above the horizon. Jupiter had rings, which surprised me. Near Jupiter I saw two things, both shining gold, and in the vision they were planets or moons. One was a fat dragon. One was a golden galleon. I never connected to this song until just now, 46 years later.

    Jupiter's rings were not discovered until 1979. I wasn't surprised to see them.

  15. J.... S....

    I believe in dragons and magic and I believe in you! You're just looking for a dream. Judy Sherry

  16. K.... l....

    Where can I get a copy of these beautiful pictures?

  17. R.... M....

    "are you sitting comfortably as Merlin casts his spell". A mesmerizing song, from a mesmerizing album, from a mesmerizing band.

  18. j.... b....

    been a fan since I first heard them in 73, seen them many times, love this track. one word sums up the moodys,, CLASS.

  19. R.... M....

    Beautiful accompanying graphics-very nice. Thanks 'coloradream'.

  20. T.... ....

    Makes me cry. The person i ever heard it with is gone on from this material realm. I miss him, my souldmate? SO much.😭

  21. N.... B....

    Love this song but I always change the lyrics....”Are you shitting comfortably....let Charmin cast its smell”.

  22. T.... K....

    My favorite Moody's song from the very first album I ever bought. When listening to it, I close my eyes and drift back to my teen years of the 70s and relive them as if they were yesterday. So calming and such wonderful memories.

  23. L.... G....

    Their music is very calming

  24. m.... m....

    If the Moodies music appeals to you then I think you may be... 1. A seeker of truth 2. your intelligence may be a little above the rest of the "Masses"and require a higher quality of music to satisfy your tastes 3.Miss the 60's vibe and want to go back there in your mind and stay for awhile...in any case your NOT your typical drug addicted/tatoo'ed "lost" loser with no direction in life of today...your a highly evolved human being who's got a brain!! I salute you all!!!

    m.... m....

    YOU ARE AMAZING.............
    💞💞🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🛸👽

  25. D.... T....

    this is a cd i will have to buy....love the moodies they take me to a wonderful place of peace and tranquility, a place where i just lose myself in the music

  26. M.... B....

    The images this tune conjure up. And Ray Thomas's flute make you drift away.

  27. D.... H....

    Headspace be like:

  28. D.... E....

    I love everything about The Moody Blues I purchase the songs on quadraphonic reel to reel years ago there's nothing better than this

  29. S.... ....

    2:08 and 3:02 what paintings are those?

  30. J.... ....

    Thank You Moody Blues a Million Times Over!!!!!

  32. A.... B....

    This is my favorite Moody Blues song. I can't decide if I want this song or Lazy Day played at my funeral. I know I want Blackbird by The Beatles and Time by Pink Floyd and something (not sure yet) by Tool. What does it say about me that 75% of my choices are from before I was ever even thought of?! Ah well, I blame my dad.

  33. A.... B....

    Can't wait unTil I retire in 2 years time ,so. Can sit back in my favorite chair and have a splif and listen to all my Moody Blue albums roll on 2021

    A.... B....

    Don't wait to retire - do it now because you don't know what the future holds! I don't know who said it but "life happens while you're planning for it." Peace!

  34. v.... ....

    Absolutely beautiful...whoever gave this thumbs down shouldn't even bother listening to it. Just go off in their dark little hole and stay there. Moody Blues will live on long after the men are gone..

  35. P.... ....

    Yes they do have a sense of spirit. This melts your heart away ......

  36. M.... M....

    They are time and space travelers wanting to share their gifts with the world. He or she who hears the 'All Aboard' cry first gets the best seats.

  37. Y.... S....

    The best gift I evergot from a friend, this album.

  38. J.... T....

    satin to your ears,soothing to your mind,that is moodies

  39. J.... T....

    Moody blues takes me to a place away from the shitty dark world😵

  40. B.... H....

    talking to you

  41. P.... C....

    Sir thank you very much for this.

  42. B.... Z....

    We were really lucky to enjoy this music 50 years ago, and to hear it today, it's just as good. Hard to find any music in the last 30 years that's been worth listening to.

  43. A.... ....

    The magic of the Moody Blues is eternal.

  44. J.... F....

    cant get enough!

  45. P.... C....

    Thank you coloradream for this wonderful time, I knew and listened to it but it's a real pleasure to rediscover it today!

  46. S.... H....

    Stunning. Soft. Great.

  47. a.... f....

    Spark a sweet joint and enjoy!

  48. D.... Z....

    As am I

  49. S.... H....

    OMG Thanks for this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  50. B.... S....

    If my head is just right this song takes me to another level.

  51. B.... S....

    At their peak the Moody Blues have to rank in the top 10 rock groups. No doubt, they were light years ahead of time.

  52. m.... m....

    The Moodies are not your typical human beings...they are highly evolved artists who perfectly reflected the BEST of the late 60's... a search for meaning/Flower children/LSD experimentation/they all meditated(TM) also...they are a VERY unique group of guys/were all lucky to have them for inspiration! PEACE/LOVE.

  53. B.... H....

    are you kidding !

  54. L.... K....

    Hypnotic occult music, witchcraft sorcery. This band was on the forefront of social engineering, when world leaders despair of capturing and manipulating young minds through witchcraft, so they created rock bands. Each album had a coven of witches casting spells and eventually, sorcery and witchcraft also became popular. Heck, they pushed LSD Leary, a CIA agent forward.

    L.... K....

    Hahahaha.......sap

  55. R.... ....

    There is something so ethereal about this song.
    I was taking a trip to Colorado a few years back, and we heard this while going through the mountains... it was utterly, utterly majestic. <3

  56. H.... ....

    Αξεπέραστο γκρουπ...

  57. S.... L....

    Favorite group of all time. Fell in love with my future wife to their music. Still in love 49 years later

  58. S.... T....

    1968 Heilbronn, Germany. 26th Signal Battalion, Wharton Barracks.Great listening, great band. Still listen to them as I fall asleep.

  59. V.... S....

    fantastic band

  60. D.... E....

    Drop 💊 and 🚬 pot. And play your flute. Songs

  61. J.... Q....

    Merlin has yet to be found in these woods.

  62. B.... H....

    always wanted to be a part of something like this

  63. D.... S....

    A lovely song, a very laid back song to chill out too.

  64. R.... H....

    THIS SONG IS SO HYPNOTIC AND MESMERIZING. IT TRANSFIXES YOU TO ANOTHER PLACE IN TIME. ONLY THE MOODY BLUES CAN MAKE MUSIC LIKE THIS.

  65. P.... L....

    Absolutely Magical....

  66. a.... D....

    I remember a wonderful weekend of love listening to this in my youth. Where have the years gone?

  67. S.... a....

    Merlin cast his spell/ I'm bound to share dreams w/ME

  68. R.... D....

    This lullaby is unequalled..

  69. H.... C....

    no...I am not happpy

  70. H.... C....

    kindness & knowledge is key

  71. H.... C....

    MY KIND

  72. C.... P....

    Justin's lyrics and vocals make this a song for the Ages. They will listen to this 500 years in the future and enjoy it. Thank you Moody Blues for being part of the Shift taking place. You were early in the Game but you will never be forgotten as higher Conciousness kicks in.

  73. M.... K....

    Love them Moody Blues always have, always will.....Mike Pace.

  74. D.... S....

    Wonderful band.....

  75. J.... M....

    Another in a long list of great tunes!

  76. B.... H....

    talking to us

  77. J.... B....

    MELLOTRON PORTAMENTOS TAKE YOU FROM THE PIT OF MANS FEARS TO THE SUMMIT OF HIS KNOWLEDGE 4:00

  78. J.... B....

    3:41 HAVE YOU HEARD

  79. B.... S....

    Moody Blues have to be in the top five of all rock groups. Their unique sound and
    dreamy lyrics always took us on surreal, incredible trips of love, peace, harmony, acceptance, tolerance and togetherness, and Brotherhood. What a great era, in which they played a huge part... WE were lucky to grow in the times where love, peace and free love and protest and hope was espoused, and not violence nor gun ownership... OH how lucky WE were.

    B.... S....

    Kinda new agey as well.

    B.... S....

    Do you know any other bands like this?

    B.... S....

    @Adeel Irshad I don't think there are any other bands like the Moodys, they were, and remain, completely unique.

    B.... S....

    @Debbie Thomas ok, so please share some of your favourite?

    B.... S....

    Oh, right you are Blair. I grew up with these guys and I know it made me a better a person.

  80. C.... P....

    This song transports me to another time and place, maybe to Medevil England.

  81. S.... A....

    I cast spells upon humans..........

  82. D.... S....

    When you feel bad, listen to them..

  83. P.... S....

    Perhaps some of the finest music there is.

  84. Q.... 4....

    The singularly most underrated musicians in the history of music.
    A Travesty that they have not been recognized by the R&R HoFame.

  85. M.... ....

    Ray Thomas' flute solos on this song never get old. I could listen to them again and again..

  86. R.... M....

    A musical address for the psychedelic sixties. It didn't matter where you were going cause it didn't matter where you had been........

  87. K.... g....

    Always find my way drifting back the the moody blues, so happy to have lived in the era of real music

  88. a.... ....
