"Your Wildest Dreams" is a 1986 single by the progressive rock band the Moody Blues, written by Justin Hayward.

Written by Hayward as a lookback toward his first love, the song features a synth-pop style that marked a stylistic departure from the band's standard lush pop sound.

When released as a single, "Your Wildest Dreams" became the band's second biggest US hit, reaching number nine on the American charts.

Moody Blues singer and guitarist Justin Hayward was inspired to write "Your Wildest Dreams" after reminiscing about his first love.

"[2] According to Hayward, the song set off a "personal journey" to delve into his past, which he characterized as "fantastic, amazing, and disturbing."

"[4] Musically, "Your Wildest Dreams" featured a synth-heavy production that diverged from the band's traditionally lush arrangements.

Cash Box said of the song that "a lilting and pretty mid-tempo marks The Moody Blues resurfacing.

"[9] The Honolulu Advertiser critic Wayne Harada described the song as "a rockaballad typifying the sound of old" and saying that "It's almost as if the group never went on sabbatical; the charisma as well as the power remain undiminished.

"[11] Midder critic Will Fenton rated it as the Moody Blues' greatest song, saying that it "proved to be a lasting favorite, with its memorable sound and positive message continuing to resonate with listeners.

"Your Wildest Dreams" was followed up by a sequel song, "I Know You're Out There Somewhere", from the 1988 Moody Blues album Sur la Mer.

It depicts Hayward and an unnamed woman throughout his career, showing how their relationship drifted apart as the band's success grew.

In flashback scenes, the young Moody Blues are represented in the video by the British band Mood Six.
