Saturday Night fever was a low budget movie planned by the studio as a rehearsal for their big movie, Grease. Starred young unknown John Travolta. But the Bee Gees music made it a block buster. Scheduled for release in a modest number of theatres,demand swiftly expanded that number. Staff often had to cope with movie goers dancing in the aisles.
It’s so different watching your reaction!! The black people who do reactions say they have never heard this song before but as soon as the music starts they quickly pause and say, “oooooh!!! This is that song that’s on all those black movies!” Then when they actually see the brothers on the screen they quickly pause again and say, “wait!! You mean these guys are white!?!” Bee Gees stands for Brothers Gibb!! These 3 used to sing in their room as young boys when Barry was 6 and the twins were 3 and their mother used to think her sons were listening to the radio!! You need to check out songs they wrote for others too! My favorite is the song Immortality which was written for and recorded by Celine Dion!
They had "1st fame" as they called it in the late 60s , when they left Australia and went back to London. Several hits followed. SNF was another level, even they didn't expect it.
“That is a different type of greatness right there”, no truer statement !! You need to check out their early stuff not just the disco. Fanny be Tender, my favorite.
I love your videos. And your reactions are brilliant I was a kid of the 70s and 80 s great time to be alive remember this so well the disco days. God Bless you
It is absolutely true that "Stayin' Alive" is the perfect tempo for performing chest compressions when giving CPR. The title is also apropos. Unfortunately, the other song which has the correct tempo, has a rather unfortunate title as far as CPR is concerned: it is "Another One Bites the Dust" by Queen. Hahaha!
When I did a CPR course the guy said please don't use the Queen song because the last thing the family of someone having a heart attack wants to hear is someone doing cpr start singing another one bites the dust
Barry and his wife Linda will celebrate their 52nd wedding anniversary this year on September 1st which is also Barry's birthday and they've been together for 55 years. God bless them and you Devin.
I love your reactions 👍 Barry has an amazing voice but you should hear "Massachusetts" singing lead by Robin and "Closer than closer" singing lead by Maurice 😍👍
Love your joy--new subscriber! Also --I LOVE your openness about loving Jesus... and I'm a fan of the Bee Gees too--born in '72 & grew up hearing them!!
You have the greatest reactions! I can feel them down to my bones. They are priceless and you are adorable. If I were 20 years younger and you were single, mannnnnnn...
This came out when I was 13, and harkens me back to Saturday nights at the roller rink. "Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, this is an all-skate..."
If ever music for the Movies desrved an Oscar it was the Saturday Night Fever medley. The fact that it missed does not reflect well on the Oscar process.
Barry Gibb apparently had never heard the term 'Disco' when he wrote this, he said it - and the whole album it was on - was an R&B song. If you read the lyrics it is, 'Lifes going nowhere, somebody help me, somebody help me yeah' is the repeated chorus for example. Then there is their earlier work like ''I gotta get a message to you' which is about a condemned man walking to his execution giving the prison Chaplin his last message for his soon to be widow. Their 60s work is good but very not disco.
Just to let you know, this song and More than a woman,How deep is your love,If Icant have you and Night Fever were written in under a week when told that they needed these songs for Saturday Night Fever with an urgent deadline. Multiply the talent by one thousand!
Just SUBSCRIBED!!! YAY 😁🤗😆, I just came across your video reaction of The Bee Gees, anyone that can smoothly roll into this magical music, Well then I've gotta give em a chance!! I've been watching music reaction videos since they first come out, so approximately (2) yrs ago!! I've watched over 20 different reactors, and I only watch a few today. So, I hope you enjoy your journey my friend, thanks for the upload!!! 🎶🎶🎶
The Bee Gees have been singing together since they were children back in Australia. They hit number 1 as teens before heading back to Great Britain to join the upswing of music created by the Beetles. They joined the same company and hit it big there. Their individual manager split from the company and took them with him. Through ups and downs they dabbled with R&B. Moved to Florida. Hooked up with Arif Mardin who worked with black R&B artists such as Aretha Franklin. Changed their sound which is noticeable in their song “Jive Talkin.” Their careers once again surged upward. Started using the falsetto in the album “Main Course.” That album was a success. Went to France to work on another album and ended up creating songs that their manager took and used in his upcoming movie called “Saturday Night Fever.” Their music was dubbed “disco “ at this point. They didn’t agree. They felt it was R&B. The movie and soundtrack was a smash hit in America and beyond. That was just the first half of their career. So much more follows. You may want to watch a documentary to get it all in.
They're best known for their disco music, but they're extremely versatile, with a couple of songs one could easily mistake for the Beatles singing. Thanks for your reaction.
Thanks Devin. I was 18 in 1978 and I was a "closet case" Bee Gees fan like many others. It wasn't cool to like disco, hard rock dominated. The disco craze only lasted a few years however the music is everlasting. It got young white boys like myself out of the basement and into the disco where the ladies were. Thank you disco and to the Bee Gees who led the way!
A couple of corrections: They are British. They were born on the Isle of Mann. The family moved to Australia when they were young. They spent the rest of their childhood there and then moved back to England to hop onto the British Explosion and expand their career opportunities. Maurice is pronounced Morris. I love your reaction. 🙂
So, have you seen "Saturday Night Fever" yet? You should. This song is played in the opening scene with John Travolta walking down the street in NYC. It's so fitting, the young Travolta strutting his stuff.
OMG Saturday Night Fever was one of those phenomenons that changed the world; it’s like saying you haven’t seen the Godfather. It’s streaming somewhere, go watch it!
Stayin Alive saved a lot of people. That CPR beat. I’m not sure why you are being blocked by RUclips because I have watched many reactions on The Bee Gees.
@@nirvanaa5556 I don’t think that’s the reason because I’ve watched lots of reactions without pauses. Copyright laws should be fair with all reactors. RUclips needs to do better. 👍🏻
Love the BeeGees reactions; “rabbit hole” is correct!! They wrote or performed over 100 top ten hits; across nearly ALL genres of music. Check out “Fanny Be Tender(with my love) And “Nights on Broadway” two of my favorites!! Also, I believe I may have asked before, but you MUST react to Steelheart’s “She’s Gone” or “I’ll Never Let You Go”; the lead vocalist “Mike” Miljenko Matejevic is simply incredible; his vocal range is in the stratosphere! You carry yourself like prior service; would I be correct in that assumption? Pop into my channel if you get time brutha, I’m just getting it started though. I do educational vids and tool reviews as it relates to gunsmithing and collecting. Also have a FB group; both are under “StevensCollector” Enjoy what you do brother, and keep em coming!!
Don't even do the Disco times, they had so many more hits than those. Jive talkin, Nights on Broadway, how do you mend a broken heart, words, More than a woman, tragedy, Fanny pretender with my love, Massachusetts, Run to me., And thousands of more incredible hits. Don't limit yourself to Disco, they had over five decades of music together. You're not doing the Bee Gees any good if you're just doing the disco era. They also wrote many songs Barbra Streisand, Kenny Rogers Dolly Parton. There's also a great documentary that everybody has been watching that came out this year called how do you mend a broken heart, it was on HBO. It's already up for six Emmys this year. There's a movie coming out on them November 2022 same person that did Bohemian Rhapsody. They deserve proper Justice. They were the third biggest selling group ever. They were probably the best harmonizing group we will ever see. Nobody could write lyrics like those guys. They're the gods of Harmony.,💯🎼🎸❤️
*Maurice pronounced his name as Morris. This song was about surviving the streets of New York (Harlem, etc.) so the video was filmed on the old "Combat" TV series filming location. The guys lived in NYC for a while inspiring them to write the song and it wasn't long after Barry discovered his falsetto. (This is the FIRST time I've EVER heard of Bee Gee's material being blocked, and I've seen YEARS and tons of reactors! One guy does NOTHING but Bee Gee's EVERY weekend!)
@@p.j.morris633 - He ABSOLUTELY DID pronounce it as Morris even though it was spelled Maurice. You can check any one of about 100 videos to verify it! I've attached the Bee Gee's interview with Larry King where Mo confirms the pronunciation of his name. Go to 26:00 time stamp: ruclips.net/video/8uMlicTfbuQ/видео.html
Musical Guiences!!🎼🎸 I actually tweet with Barry and he has responded twice to me. You got over a hundred top songs or more that were in the top 100 Billboard charts. There's so many more you need to see. Please continue down this road, they also had a fourth brother named Andy, he had his own solo career.
Yeah right. The real Barry Gibb doesn't tweet. His son Stephen even said so. Don't know who your talking to but it's not Barry. I take his sons word over yours.

Even tho the video was blocked , I've seen it a million times. I know exactly what you are reacting to! 😂😂😂❤❤
I love their songs and i loved the movie when it came out.
Back than I did this song dance.
Devin, I love your personality and up beat attitude. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY. Love this channel, kid!
Barry recently donated this song to the American Heart Association because this is the beat recommended for chest compressions in CPR.
This music makes you come alive You felt the music run threw you What a feeling I believe the 1970 music was the best decade for real music

"A different type of greatness!" You are correct sir! They were THE BEST! EXCELLENCE was their motto in every song! ♥️
Please more Bee Gees ❤❤❤
hahahaha... grew up on this stuff.. it NEVER gets old!
I’m 69 and still dancing to them.
You’re one of the best reactions I’ve seen!
It’s so different watching your reaction!! The black people who do reactions say they have never heard this song before but as soon as the music starts they quickly pause and say, “oooooh!!!

You need to check out songs they wrote for others too! My favorite is the song Immortality which was written for and recorded by Celine Dion!
You may want to take a look at the movie "Saturday Night Fever" The Bee Gees did the entire soundtrack. It is what finally shot them to fame.
They had "1st fame" as they called it in the late 60s , when they left Australia and went back to London. Several hits followed. SNF was another level, even they didn't expect it.
I was rocking to the brothers gibb long before saturday nite fever wss made.
They were well known long before SNF - but that movie, the entire soundtrack WAS the times...and the BeeGees became more than my mom's favorites 💕
This was I think their 3rd comeback.
These 3 have talent you will not forget.🎶🎶🎶🎶💕💕💕💕
Its nice to see our young people enjoying real music. Your reactions are priceless.
“That is a different type of greatness right there”, no truer statement !! You need to check out their early stuff not just the disco. Fanny be Tender, my favorite.
Awesome. They're the best. So wonderful to see young people reviving the greatness! Never goes out of style. God bless you too.
I love your videos. And your reactions are brilliant I was a kid of the 70s and 80 s great time to be alive remember this so well the disco days. God Bless you
They are so awesome! So glad I got to see the Brothers in concert! # what a great era of music I grew up in!# THE BEE GEES..ANDY GIBB
This song always makes me wanna strut like a boss down the road like Travolta in the movie Saturday Night Fever 😉🕺

I have done CPR and it is crazy that this song was most definitely going in my head
Watch Travolta dancing to this. Hilarious!!!
Barry and his wife Linda will celebrate their 52nd wedding anniversary this year on September 1st which is also Barry's birthday and they've been together for 55 years. God bless them and you Devin.
You really must watch Saturday Night Fever. Full of Bee Gees and other great songs. John Travolta in him prime. The walk at the beginning is amazing.
Saturday Night Fever includes the now closed Lenny's Pizza 😢which is in the opening.
Put watching the movie Saturday Night Fever high on your todo list, John Travolta in his prime
You really need to watch Fanny be tender with my love, Barry and Robin go toe to toe on the falsetto!! It’s awesome!!!
The 70’s bro,you missed the party.
It was GREAT.
I love your reactions 👍 Barry has an amazing voice but you should hear "Massachusetts" singing lead by Robin and "Closer than closer" singing lead by Maurice 😍👍
Love your joy--new subscriber! Also --I LOVE your openness about loving Jesus...
and I'm a fan of the Bee Gees too--born in '72 & grew up hearing them!!
Love your energy❣️
Devin. I love this song! Bee Gees rule! 💘 them. Thank you Devin.
you make me smile you are so real
Thank you for this reaction video 😁 A bit of chair dancin' is good for the soul.
Don't know one metal head in their 40s and 50s who don't love this song
You have the greatest reactions! I can feel them down to my bones. They are priceless and you are adorable. If I were 20 years younger and you were single, mannnnnnn...
Be careful if you go down the Bee Gees rabbit-hole you might not get out
This came out when I was 13, and harkens me back to Saturday nights at the roller rink.
"Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, this is an all-skate..."
No one can out strut John Travolta love the Bee Gees
Well, except Barry in those white pants, which he later said in an interview were difficult to get into and even worse to get out of! :)
@@Pamsmith59 Barry can't out strut John not by a long shot
You have some awesome dance moves! You would've loved the disco era!

You may want to react to “immortality” sung by Celine Dion and The Bee Gees. Sooo good!
Yay!!!!!!!!!!!! Patience pays off. I have been wanting you to react to this video since you reacted to Queen’s Bohemian Rhapsody.
I hoped you liked your coffee ☕️ I got you !! Worth every penny dude!!
Would love to see your reactions to my favorite band of all time -Queen!
You need to find “Rings Around The Moon”. The video I just saw was from Robin’s Funeral! Beautiful song!
So glad you like them!!! They are awesome!!
Haha... "Taco Meat"... that made me laugh. I'll need to remember that one.
AFI is the American Film Institute. So it's a ranking of songs that have been in movies.
So, have you seen "Saturday Night Fever" yet? You should. This song is played in the opening scene with John Travolta walking down the street in NYC. It's so fitting, the young Travolta strutting his stuff.
You must hear Bee Gees - Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow?
👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
I love u Devin and thank you for the brilliant reacts
OMG Saturday Night Fever was one of those phenomenons that changed the world; it’s like saying you haven’t seen the Godfather. It’s streaming somewhere, go watch it!

Devin, have you done any Moody Blues yet? I'd suggest "Nights in White Satin" and "The Voice." Have a great day!
Tuesday Afternoon too!!!
A lot of people don't know this but you also can use the beat of that song to do CPR on a person to save their life
At the time, the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack was the ( and not sure if still is) the #1 movie soundtrack..ever..
Can’t listen without seeing John Travolta his leather jacket, paint can and 2 slices of pizza strutting in Brooklyn in the opening scene of the movie.
👌👏👏
Next to Elvis! Barry is next in line!
I think they all were ladies men!! Oh yes!
I think Barry was always faithful to his wife Linda.
