Just love Blue Island. In true Bee Gees tradition, they dedicated this song to the children of war torn Bosnia. They were the conscience of that era imo
I was blessed to see the Bee Gees perform live in 1979 at the Oakland Coliseum. I purchased this album, Spirits Having Flown & Fannie are my favorite songs by the Bee Gees.
Bee Gees should be blessed for they were talented, generous, lovable musicians that loved the world and the kids ❤❤ so so much... unforgettable great band ... forever my band❤❤😊
I love their spiritual tour in 1979, this tour performance was so so amazing to watch and listen.... everyone should not miss to watch...a phenomenal tour performance ❤🎉😊😊
Total BG's fan. Forgot all about Spirits Having Flown. Loved hearing it. Blue Island was new to me---which I thought I knew them all. If you listen to Andy Gibb, the little brother, you will hear the same BeeGee's voice tone. Lovely tone. Thanks for the Reaction.
@@bShawreacts The “legend” created was that it was Barry double tracking himself. But watching the “making of tragedy” we see and hear Robins Falsetto as strong as Barry’s. Maurice also mentions in interviews that often the lead vocal might sound like two people, because it is.
Thanks Ben! Awesome reactions and great song choices. Spirits Having Flown and Main Course albums are my favorites. So many awesome songs. The Bee Gees are the greatest of all time. I am blessed to have had their music my whole life. You look good by the way. I hope you are feeling better. 😊
I was of their middle era forward my earliest memory of a Bee Gees song being Massachusetts when I was about 3 years old. However not all of us were able to get to their wonderful concerts. I am seeing them online for the first time now. I think Blue Island was written in aid of the Children of Bosnia when there was trouble out there. The idea of heaven being like a ble island was put about by an American psychic about that time. Barry heard it.
They were blessed to bless the world with their music. I'm not saying their talent or accomplishments can be duplicated, but I'm thankful that they were a prolific family, from oldest Gibb sibling Lesley to Andy-- they all had kids!! A total of 20! The Gibb DNA -- One can hope.
I like Spencer Gibb, Robin's oldest son. I love his songs Empty Room and You're Gonna Love Me Again. Steven, Barry's oldest son has an interesting voice, I like his Living In The Rain. Samantha, Mo's daughter has a lovely voice.
I’ve done For Whom The Bell Tolls already Amazing! I’ll have to watch and see if I’ve done Alone yet or not. I’ve done so many reactions that they are becoming harder to keep track of lol 😂!
Unfortunately, the sound on the clip of Blue Island was NOT the live acoustic music nor vocals. Here you can hear the actual LIVE vocals: they were only there without musicians, so it was their vocals and no accompanying music and they sang the harmonica part. ruclips.net/video/onUGRI8ihwc/видео.html
The video you shared is the only version I've watched (over and over) so this one with the harmonica detracts a bit from the song. Just an amazing performance.
I sent you a donation to listen to Barry Gibb’s 2016 album, 3 songs: In The Now, Grand Illusion, and Home Truth Song. Please take your time, but I think it will be interesting for you and others who aren’t as familiar with the Bee Gees newer music to see a new side of Barry since he’s the last man standing. Live versions if you’re able to find all 3 live.
In an interview with the guys, Barry said personally, he felt that Blue Island was one of their best songs ever written he loved it!!
2 guitars and 3 Brothers. Thats the Bee Gees ❤❤❤
You forgot to mention the unnatural amount of talent.
The greatest ever. Still the world number 1 in 2024❤❤❤

Spirits is one of my favorites
A sound like no other! 💕
Bee Gees should be blessed for they were talented, generous, lovable musicians that loved the world and the kids ❤❤ so so much... unforgettable great band ... forever my band❤❤😊

Please react to Edge of the universe by the BEEGEES thanks
Yes! I agree Edge of the Universe is awesome and I love Rings Around the Moon too.
I love the way Robin and Barry sort of chase and bounce around each other on the chorus with Maurice providing the lower registrar.
Me too!

Voci Immortali per sempre Bee gees nel mio cuore
spirits having flown...i ADORE this tune, and blue island too... ....have you listened "hold me like a child" ? from them.
No I haven’t heard of that one! I’ll give it a listen as soon as possible. Thanks!
@@bShawreacts If you really want frustration, watch them and listen to them harmonize when they were kids.
👌👌👍
Thanks Ben! Awesome reactions and great song choices. Spirits Having Flown and Main Course albums are my favorites. So many awesome songs. The Bee Gees are the greatest of all time. I am blessed to have had their music my whole life. You look good by the way. I hope you are feeling better. 😊
I’m putting on a brave face honestly. I’m sick. I’m tired. And most important I don’t see this getting any better
So sorry to hear about your continuing poor health, Ben.😔
@@bShawreacts I’m so sorry to hear this Ben. Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers. 🙏❤️
Thank you! It’s gotta get better sooner or later 🤷🏻♂️!
On a personal note you look so well 😊e

Love these two songs. They have so many great tunes. Have you done For Who The Bell Tolls and Alone?
I’ve done For Whom The Bell Tolls already Amazing! I’ll have to watch and see if I’ve done Alone yet or not. I’ve done so many reactions that they are becoming harder to keep track of lol 😂!
They said some native cultures call heaven a Blue Island written for children of Bosnian war in the 90s.
