Been listing since 67, when at 7 I heard them on the radio. Can't believe Mo's been gone 20 years and Robin what, 11 now? There will never be a group that comes close.
Robin Gibb....one of the best vibrato voices in musical history. Never to be repeated or duplicated in this life time. I was a teenager when this came out and remember it like it was yesterday. Music of today can not touch this. I can not remember some of todays music that was put out last year. The Gibb brothers music shall last us a lifetime.
Correction: Pop-music of today can not touch this. Just one example of a fantastic musician and singer of today is Devin Townsend. Very different genre(s) but he is fantastic in everything he does.
Does any else think this is a singing duel between Robin and Barry? Robin is so good that Barry has to sing even better. It results in amazing vocals by both brothers. Personally I give the win to Robin, but I was always partial to his voice, and this was the first Bee Gees song I ever heard when I was 9 or 10. I was pretty blown away.
Random Hong Kong-er here. You probably won't believe it, but everyone here were crazy for Bee Gees in the 60s~80s. Many people from those generations can hardly say a complete sentence in English, but they will always be able to sing or hum along with Bee Gees' songs. That's how influential the Gibbs brothers were, or still are.
Sad that nobody has commented on this wonderful video for over 5 years !! I'm now 62 and these tunes still bring back lovely memories of my 1st love..... and how their music was just so timeless.
Watching this video Dec 23 , 2022 . There's something special about the harmony that comes within a family . They all contribute to the unique sound called the Bee Gees . I still have some vinyl records .
Barry had a beautiful voice, but there was something very special about Robin. His voice reaches to the soul and makes you free for at least 3 minutes. Beautiful beautiful
It's small minded to come on here and criticize how they look. It was from a different era - just shut up and enjoy the harmony that can't really be taught when it comes to this trio.
Robin WAS the lead singer for a time, but then falsetto came in, and Barry could do it. Robin left the band once, because he felt Barry was getting all the attention. They were ALL so talented, and some one has to be the lead singer. He came back, and I'm so glad he did. Bee Gees forever!!! And now Barry is a Christian, thanks to Ricky Scaggs, and thinking of moving to Nashville and recording solo. That would be great. He'd be busy, and it would help his sorrow. August 20, 2017
They were amazing men, they did it all write, sing, produce. Robin had the most amazing beautiful voice I've ever hear. They were the greatest group ever.
The sweetness of robin's eyes struck me the very first time I saw the group on TV. I was in primary school....and I have never forgotten them since then...
I remember, as a little kid, when "I Started a Joke" came out and I fell in love with this song and would cry when I heard it on the radio. I never knew who did the song, but I will always remember it. When the Bee Gees started their meteoric rise to disco fame, I liked these guys, too. It was only later, that I found out that the Bee Gees also did "I Started a Joke", so I deduced that I was a Bee Gees fan, long before the 70s. =)
I could have written this post. My experience also. This song and some other earlier songs, I didn't know who song them when I was young. Seems like I have always been a fan also.
The song wax said by Barry Gibb that Robins song I started a joke had a righteous content and I knew then exactly what it was about amazing for someone so young
Rest in peace Robin, Andy and Maurice. You will never be forgotten. You were part of my childhood and adulthood and will always be a part of my life forever
I was born in 1971, to young to remember most of there early songs but my father was a disc jockey and made us appreciate all music. The Bee Gees are one of my favorites, listen to them everyday.❤️
I love you always, Robin. No band will ever again get even close to the Bee Gees. I''ve watched bands for 58 years, and the Bees Gees are right up there among the very best. RIP Robin, you are just precious!
Say what ya like, but The Bee Gees is one of the greatest bands in the history of pop music and these are two of their best. Fantastic Video. Perfect Performance.
Their songs give me the chills!!!!!!! I am 70 now and adore them and love their music as much if not more than I did the first time I heard them!!!!!!!!
Robin's vibrato is pure crystal, and to achieve it so naturally at such a young age (he was 19 when this was recorded) makes it even more mesmerizing. He had, in my opinion, the best talent in this whole family of highly gifted brothers. An unmistakable voice among falsettos.
Wow ! I saw this when I was 10 yrs. old, I'm now 67 yrs. Keep Music Alive & Well . The World needs to Sing & Dance No Matter What . It brings Us All Together ! Free Yourselves from the uglynness of Our U S Government . ✌️💞💖💯✌️🇺🇲💯
Whenever I listen "First of May", I am deeply missing the one from my heart. If I am sleeping, I can't help getting up as my missings are so deep. I love your songs. Thank you for your songs. Days are more beautiful with songs.
Robin is NATHANIEL ROBERTO'S idol he has a version of this beautiful song please watch him if you have time and if it's ok with you please subscribe it would be a great help for him thank you 🙏🙏
Been a fan since their appearrance on Australian Bandstand in 1963 after the family migrated from Manchester. Interesting man on drums backing here. Colin Peterson has been a childhood actor appearing in the 1955 movie Smiley. He was a band member until 1969.
ROBIN IS VERY CUTE AND I LOVE HIS LONG RED HAIR HE IS SO SWEET WITH HIS BIG BEAUTIFUL BROTHER BARRY SINGING HIS HEART OUT AND YES IT IS VERY SAD LOSING ROBIN HE WAS LIKE ROBIN HOOD AND HE WAS TOO YOUNG TO DIE HE SHOULD BE ALIVE TODAY
WHEN I HEAR THIS SONG IT'S VERY SAD BECAUSE THE MUSIC WORLD LOST ROBIN IN 2012 AND I COULDN'T STOP CRYING HE IS A LOSS AND I MISS ROBIN HE WAS CUTE WITH HIS RED HAIR AND THEN MY MAN BARRY SINGS FIRST OF MAY BACK IN 1969 I WAS ONLY 6 YOUNG AT CHRISTMAS I LOVE YOU BARRY FOREVER
Robin Gibb had a tremendous voice. Always enjoyed his leads. I'm so thankful God gave us the Bee Gees. Great contributions to music! Best wishes to Barry.

Robin had a voice of an angel. 💖😢
The best ever in the world. I still listen everyday. Love them. B

It's not a competition or duel between anyone, unless Robin saw it that way, which he often did.
Personally I give the win to Barry
He had such a beautiful voice
His voice overcame the bucket look.......
cruel, but funny
Good
@@cpospish ignorant, rude and false. Robin was attractive. He didn't have the luxury of getting braces during that time. Show us what you look like.
but not a beautiful hairstyle ...
Wonderful song and the only person who can sing. It. R.I.P. God bless you for 2023.
One of My fav ❤❤

I always send this song video on her birthday every year without fail.

Magnificent! Robin's voice just vibrates with every note. What an excellent voice.
HERMOSO!!
@scottwilliams1709 You words did indeed bring a smile to my face. Also, listening to the Bee Gees always gives me a lift and brightens my spirits

I love Robin. His voice soothes and relaxes me.
" Till I finally died, which starting the whole whole living . . . "
Rest in peace, the whole The Bee Gees, we love you, and love this song.
Why whole? Barry still alive
Apeng Great I know, that comment scared me for a second
Barry still alive bruh
Yes we do
Barry is still alive And also Colin Petersen as well
It's small minded to come on here and criticize how they look. It was from a different era - just shut up and enjoy the harmony that can't really be taught when it comes to this trio.
Those who criticize their faces are just people who has no talent at all,they just did is to be look good even though they ain't.
@@EDUCPHILcom com certeza absoluta irmão,bee Gees cantavam com o coração, parece até que cantava para anjos 😢
Música triste e perfeita
You got that right
I think they look gorgeous ❤
A very good song by Robin and his brother. Best regard worldcall.

+Carol Wade There was no era where Robin was the main lead singer for the Bee Gees, pre or post "falsetto".
Both Baz and Rob were lead in the early days. Rob's leads were the first to chart.
Love you Robin ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
i think robin is the gem of the beegees group
GREAT voice.
I think Barry is.
Robin may be a gem, but Barry's the mine.💎

grandissimo Robin, una delle più grandi canzoni d'amore di sempre. Ci manchi
je cesserai JAMAIS d'écouter cette chanson MERCI MERCI je vous aimes
love this man's voice just amazing so wish he was still here to sing to me Thank You Robin!
I loved Robin's voice from this first song. Powerful. Great singer, writer, and person from what i have seen.
Couldn’t agree with you more. Robin will forever be remembered for his unbelievable vibrato 😢❤
They were amazing men, they did it all write, sing, produce. Robin had the most amazing beautiful voice I've ever hear. They were the greatest group ever.
Rip brothers
É verdade, o melhor grupo musical de todos os tempos.
The sweetness of robin's eyes struck me the very first time I saw the group on TV. I was in primary school....and I have never forgotten them since then...
Robin Gibb - one of the finest voices of his generation. Simply divine
The Bee Gees, the finest voices in generations!
I Started a Joke Love that song and every Robin Gibb performance of it that I've found on RUclips.
Che voce aveva sto ragazzo non ci sarà mai nessuno come lui per sempre Robin❤❤❤❤

This song circa '65 started their career. Loved the BeeGees.
Robin will always be the
Sound of the BGs.
The 3 of them are the sound of The Bee Gees

Twin brother Maurice plays piano 🎹 his voice is also incredible
Rest in peace Robin, Andy and Maurice. You will never be forgotten. You were part of my childhood and adulthood and will always be a part of my life forever

The 60's Bee Gees were pretty incredible!
Yes they were. Wish more people listened to their 60s stuff its so iconic
@@applescruffs2894 Love your name. They should also listen to their Australian recordings, made while serving their apprenticeship out here.
I loved the early stuff, fantastic lyrics and vocals.
Gorgeous Barry and his sweet, soulful voice.💗
When Robin sings the bridge here in "I Started A Joke," I got serious chills! What a voice he had! Anyone who doesn't like this music has no soul.
Agreed. The falsetto at the end of his song always gets me.
Cathy Wood:well said...
me too,everytime!
@@JuIietaAmezcua
I've never understood why Barry got more lead vocals than Robin.
@@edwardlayden6935 probably because he wrote everything.
Robin really had a great and unique voice

Robin was an awesome vocalist that vibrato wil never be duplicated
Robin's voice is the best of his generation.
Robin's voice was my favorite. Always such a sweet tone to his voice. Natural talent for all three brothers.
I love you always, Robin. No band will ever again get even close to the Bee Gees. I''ve watched bands for 58 years, and the Bees Gees are right up there among the very best. RIP Robin, you are just precious!
Sorry folks, Ive watched all this bands too.. But no one got over Beatles...
Including Bee Gees the biggest Beatles's fans!!
That is because the Beatles were the first boy band.
Randi Holbrook It is because they were the best period! Having said that the bee gees are still incredibly great.
Well said
What a voice! RIP Robin
Say what ya like, but The Bee Gees is one of the greatest bands in the history of pop music and these are two of their best. Fantastic Video. Perfect Performance.

I’m an eye surgeon. I play The Bee Gees in the OR every week. Everyone loves it. Their talent is insane
AGREED😊😊❤
Concordo plenamente.

Very early BeeGees they were heaven sent

I've always felt that no one should ever attempt to sing "I started a joke". That song belongs to Robin's voice only.
I’ve written many, mostly unread, paragraphs and comments on that very fact.
The song should END at 2:24.
