    When near the end Robin was asked if he approved a DNR (do not resuscitate) when he had had enough. He said there will never be a time when I've had enough. I want to live. He was one tough cookie, in and out of comas and amazing doctors at his determination, but it was not to be. He sang this into a recorder in his bedroom and hoped he and Barry could sing it together. Dwina said "He cried when he wrote it and I cried when I heard it." To his last breath he kept saying "I wish Mo was here. I can't believe he's gone". I'm sure Mo helped him cross over.

    Autumn leaves are falling... ( the end of life draws near) The battle is won... ( he lived a good & meaningful life)... I close my eyes ( Robin is resigned to & at peace with knowledge that his days are numbered).

    Heartbreaking song. I loved Robin Gibb's voice and I hate that he died so young. His voice was one of a kind. I just don't think he really ever got all the appreciation of his voice that he should have. That is why i always try and share every good song by him to other people.

  • @gabyehebrecht7435
    @gabyehebrecht7435 Год назад +11

    At first, I was hesitant to look at this reaction. I've only heard the song once before, found it so extremely sad and resolved never to listen to it again. But knowing that you are making this reaction and the feeling of listening to it together with the 3L Family who I now know about 3 years ( don’t know exactly when I started watching) comforted me and I dared to click on the video. It was worth it.
    I believe that people who are close to the end of life tend to think about the past and reflect on their lives. Days before my mother died, she told me a lot about earlier times and told me about events and her feelings that I never knew anything about before. Three days later, she left for good. I think Robin knew very well that his life would soon be over and was in this phase of remembering and reflecting. He did it the way he could do best - via a song . Rest in Peace, Robin.
    Thank you Chad. You’re amazing.

  • @lclark6854

    It is very sad but I find it beautiful too. He wanted to work and be creative right until the end and to reflect on his life with his brothers. The line "but you're not there" I presume is about Maurice who he must have missed sorely.

That song is very personal to Robin and his brothers and thats the way it should stay its Robins personal song for his brothers and that's the way it should stay because it was written for them 😢

    This is such a sad, sweet song that I'm so glad you reacted to, despite how sad you heard it is! 'Cause you get to hear Robin's true feelings at the core of his being near the end of his life. I love that what all the Gibb bros love/loved more than anything is being with their family and that being together is/was, at least, almost always more important to them than anything else. Unfortunately, we never got the duet of this song that Robin was planing on doing with Barry because he died before that got to happen. So, all we have is his solo demo of it. At least, we have it at all. I love your honest, fully invested reactions to any song, but, especially, the Gibb bro ones - and not just because they're my #1 favorite artists but because of how deeply into their music you dive, reacting to so many songs that no one else has.

    Yes, true, that he wanted to finish this recording (this is still kind of the "demo" form) with Barry, after he finished his titanic requiem (it was really important for him to finish the requiem in time for the 100th anniversary of the titanic sinking) but by that time, he was too sick. He couldn't even attend the performance of the requiem. he died a few weeks later. He and Barry never recorded together again.

  • @juanita6479
    @juanita6479 Год назад +9

    I finally listened to this song few time ago, it's very poignant and sad in all extension of the word. The line 'The battle's won now... The price was high' could apply to many situations in life where we fight tirelessly for something and when we finally get it, sometimes with several sacrifices along the way, we ask ourselves if it was really worth it, and I think that is what Robin meant, they actually reached the top, but at what cost?
    PS I agree 100% with the commet your follower made in the video 'You should be dancing' 👌

    It was sad. His last thoughts were of his family and childhood. Before everything got wild and complicated in their lives once they returned to England and became famous. I can understand the feeling of missing the simpler and wonderful times when we are young, I've reflected on it since my parents, and a number of other relatives have passed away.

    I live in Melbourne Australia and I remember and enjoyed watching those 3 gauky boys on TV in 1960s
    In 1972 I returned from serving in Vietnam and it was the Bee Gees songs which kept me going.
    I took my future wife to the Bee Gees concert at Festival Hall in 1973 when Robin was distracted by a person trying to get on the stage. What a concert
    Then in 2010 we saw Robin's Concert in Melbourne and he clearly was not well but still brilliant.
    I suppose that was one of his last concerts before he died. Devastating.
    Chad, I really appreciate the sincerity and respect you show towards this wonderful group.
    Lots of old Hit Parade listings have been coming up on facebook. You look at some of those old hits snd they are jist a memory. Not the Bee Gees
    I did a trip to the US and had the pleasure of meeting a Bee Gees sound engineer on a ferry in 2016.
    Keep up the good work
