Wow! Awesome collab!! No one dominated or got left out.l think the song is excellent. and the vocals are superb. Clapton and the Bee Gees at the tops of their games! Bravo, boys!
I never heard this song before.Fantastic🔝Ive been a Bee Gees Fan for over 46 years and believe it or not,they inspired me to listening to Eric Clapton,because of Miami and the album he did there,which inspired the Bee Gees to record Main Course in the same studio.However its a kind of magic,because I believe that we are all,in one way or another interconnected💡By the way today its Eric Claptons 78 Birthday,so I wanna send some birthday wishes out to Mr.Eric Slowhand Clapton🎸🎙🎂And also some best wishes and greetings to Barry Gibb And The Gibb Family and the Estate of Maurice and Robin Gibb🙏Thank You For The Music🎼
The song was on a cassette tape of the Seoul Olympics that I bought in Sapporo in 1988. It also included BARRY's solo guitar play “shape of things to come” in the interlude. I like both!!
This song was commissioned for the boxing event of the 1988 Summer Olympics soundtrack. It had a promising start but the vastly controversial & robbery lost of legend Roy Jones Jr. did not help the promotion of the soundtrack. Also it was in this Olympics that Lennox Lewis of Canada (that time) beat the US Riddick Bowe. The other BEE GEES song Shape of Things To Come was pulsatingly appropriate for the Tae-Kwon-Do event, but the event itself was not that popular, so a gem was underused. Both great songs which like Roy, was robbed of a win for the above reasons.
Me, (Allan Love) Midge Ure, Andy Hill, Barry and Robin Gibb did the back ups on this track and also the Elton John track for the Bunbury's. Great day of fun, BBQ and madness.
Thanks for additional info! Do you recall when exactly this took place? Info is generally sparse but suggests it was originally laid down in '86 but may have had additional recording and mixing done in '88. Reading Midge Ure was involved makes me think around the time of the '88 Prince's Trust event?
Y esta canción? Primera vez que la escucho, y tenía mis dudas de que pudiera ser una buena alianza, y la verdad, que gran sorpresa!!!! Gran canción, que debió ser un hit!! Fabulosa guitarra de Clapton, los coros de los BeeGees armónicamente perfectos, y el resultado es una canción buenísima !!! Escuchenla otra vez !!! Dónde estuvo esta canción todos estos años?
Pues por desgracia en el cubo de la basura, como todo lo de los Bee Gees. El grupo más estigmatizado y denostado de la historia de la música, durante toda su larga y excelente carrera musical. Durante décadas me comentaban que Barry Gibb cantaba en falsete por que era homosexual y yo les contestaba, no el homosexual era Freddy Mercury. Y que conste que soy fan también de Queen
Excellent song coolest drums and guitar !!! THe coolest of the cool!!!!!!Love it Bunberrys U ROCK IT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Always give Sir Barry some Listening time-first was Dave Mason Let It Go and We Just Disagree wit Rick Derringer--and the guy from Andys Band 10 years ago-dat Dave got i going on it!!!

Wit Raheem Kassaam we bee on GAB too!!! So good! For truth not Propaganda EC Buckem for LIFE!!!!
Each time I hear this track, I just think FABULOUS!
Eric Clapton and The Bee Gees had the same manager in the 70s, Mr. Robert Stigwood, they were very friends (Eric, Barry, Maurice and Robin).
Once again, the Bee Gees displaying their amazing songwriting versatility.

Great song. Great collaboration. Wish more people were aware of it.
THE BEEGEES ARE NOT ONLY GOOD SINGERS THEY WERE ALSO GREAT SONGWRITERS OF OTHER WE'LL KNOWN ARTISTS NOT ONLY I N U.S.
Here's another little piece of the BGs story...
Thank you Dan Gibb.

🥀Amazing Song Brilliant lyrics, vocals and music! Thanks for posting this song it's priceless to me to me🥀☝️🥀☝️
Great collaboration. This was when both Clapton and the Bee Gees were being managed by Robert Stigwood (from 1966-1990 or so).
WOW Excellent... Thanks for your post. Love ❤️ it July 2022
Love this song. Could be & should have been a top song any year.

😂
What a bummer, I can't find this song on Apple Music
This song is AMAZING!!!!

This is a great song my best friend introduced me to it.
Another good Bee Gee song for Stephen Gibb.
Steve gibb had nothing to do with this song
@@bobbybruce18 l know that!!! But when he toured with his Dad he sang a few B G songs, in a similar way to Eric here
It was performed during his U.K. leg of the Mythology tour.
Using this songs the NASCAR highlights 1993 on ABC sports.
Never heard this before. I loved it. Thank you for sharing this, I appreciate it very much.
Awesomeness ❣️
for those who didn't know this was a charity job tied in with a charity cricket team ec was involved with.
Thank you 🙋♀️

Has the same feel as the Journeyman album. :))
Great! Great!
They did this song to raise money for a children's charity,

Saludos a la familia gibb 👍❣️😍🥰
Não conhecia essa musica. É do mesmo estilo do album ESP
Esta' Cancion' Very good
Grandioso
Thanks,Dan.Beautiful.
Anyone knows how i Can find the song in Spotify?
No, it's out of print. CD or Cassette is the only way - but it's incredibly expensive.
Irgendwann war das doch auch in dem gleichen Jahr mit Andy Gibb passiert,oder?
No thanks I was switched off on wish you were here so I’ll just leave you alone
Forever Forever ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
