"Forever Autumn" is a song written by Jeff Wayne, Gary Osborne and Paul Vigrass, and sung by Justin Hayward.
Vigrass and Osborne, the performers of the original jingle, added lyrics to the song and recorded it for inclusion on their 1972 album Queues.
Their interpretation was also released as a single and gained moderate commercial success in Japan, selling more than 100,000 copies and becoming a top-20 hit on the country's record chart.
Wayne chose Hayward, of The Moody Blues, to sing it saying that he "wanted that voice from 'Nights in White Satin'".
Hayward remembers being contacted: "Jeff Wayne called me up and asked me if I was the guy who sang "Nights In White Satin" and I told him 'Yes, I might have done that one!'
The next few weeks, I got more involved with the project, I played the guitar, and I did some other songs on it, and I was generally sort of hanging around.
