      @@generationgapreacts - Being under such pressure and performing publicly since they were @11 and 8 respectively, something had to give at some point. There were also two iconic voices and equally strong personalities competing, Barry and Robin, with Maurice trying to stop them from killing each other. The competition between them probably made them even better. The world is glad they reunited. One of my favorites sung by Robin is "Black Diamond" from the Odessa LP. The lyrics might sound strange on their own because Odessa was a concept album and the stories follow a theme. Black Diamond is about a sailor going to find his fame and fortune.

    FYI. There is a video, where Barry is preforming for the first time by himself, after Robin and Maurice have passed away. This was the first song in his performance, and about 20 seconds into the singing, he started to choke up, and could hardly sing. The part where Maurice and Robin would join in singing, was where he really had a tough time singing. The audience joined in and picked up the song, while he composed himself, with tears in his eyes. I think most of the audience also had tears in their eyes.

    Your Mom was right about the Bee Gees breakup and then getting back together. The disagreement that led to the Bee Gees breakup had to do who would be the lead singer more. Robin had been doing lead for the most part but Barry wanted to lead more. So the final straw was that Robin was the Lead on one song and Barry was the Lead Singer on one. Both Robin and Barry wanted their song on the A side of the Record. The A side of a Record usually was considered the Hit Side and the B side was not played as often,
    The Producer chose Barry's song and so Robin left. Maurice tried to get his brothers back together. Robin would talk to Maurice to get Barry a message and Barry sent a message through Maurice. Maurice was the Man in the Middle. He later wrote a song with that Title. Barry and Robin agreed to meet at Barry's House along with Maurice, Barry's house had a Music studio and they started singing and wrote How Can You Mend A Broken Heart. Robin agreed that Barry should be the lead singer more. In the song Robin started as the lead and then passed the lead to Barry. Robin would still get to lead some but the transition was complete.

    • @generationgapreacts
      @generationgapreacts  Год назад +3

      Wow that’s very interesting and a good thing to know! I can see how that would cause a riff between the brothers and poor Maurice being stuck in the middle. Robin really did have a wonderful voice and it might be my favorite between the two. But of course Barry’s head voice is iconic and amazing

    This is a song that brings back a lot of heartache and memories. My girlfriend/fiance was raised as Seventh Day adventist. Her minister father had decided it was best for her and the church to return to her 1 year old daughters father as an attempt to rekindle their fsiled marriage. I found out as they were beginning to drive off from our house. I was very upset and decided to drive to my parents house, about an hour away. Every radio station was playing the most popular song of the day, the Bee Gee's "How do you mend a broken heart". What a long and tortuous drive that was. It ended up she was pregnant and never told me. I finally met my daughter years ago and we get along great. She never felt close to the person whom she was told was her dad. Somethings were just meant to be.

    Greetings my friend!!....You are the right person to make this amazing reaction video and give us your opinion about this incredible singer...In 2017, the music world was shocked by the bursting onto the scene of a 22-year-old singer named Dimash Kudaibergen, who performed on the famous Chinese competition show for professional singers called “The Singer”... It was just it was necessary for this young man to make his first appearance, making a cover of one of the most difficult songs in the world, a famous French composition called "S.O.S. D'un Terrien En Détresse", to be considered from that moment on as the best singer in the entire planet....No one in the musical field had ever seen a human being, being able to reach vocal ranges above 7 octaves and several semitones, that is, all 88 keys of a digital piano, which reaches a little more than 7 octaves and as if that weren't enough, sing the more than 12 languages...Since then all kinds of experts (Vocal coachs, singers, musicians, analysts, singing teachers, youtubers, reactors, etc.) have dedicated themselves to reviewing their presentations to try to understand how someone can sing this way...The incredible thing is that that presentation in China was in 2017 but what Dimash has done in these 5 years is to further improve his wide vocal range, which is currently practically above of the 8 octaves... The Covid pandemic stopped his concerts worldwide, all with tickets sold in just seconds, via the internet, but at the same time it ended up catapulting him to the top of popularity worldwide...Anyway, since I think you are one of those reactors who have not yet met this impressive singer, here is the link of that presentation in China in 2017, with the song S.O.S. and I would like you to mention my name as the person who recommended him to you...You have to be prepared because your channel will explode with an avalanche of views, comments and new subscribers....I leave you one more recent video than the others, so it does not have the same number of views as the previous ones, which have millions of views, but it is a more complete video, with an intro, subtitles in several languages and with the improved quality of audio and sound....ruclips.net/video/bDX3FhmyNac/видео.html

    This as with most of their music was so wonderful. I know they had music that was never released and that saddens my heart. Thank you ladies for your reaction. What is so terrible is they will never have anymore new music for us to hear and fall in love with. Thanks to these super talented brothers that I love more today than last month. God bless you. Deme in Bama.😊

    I'm 64 soon to be 65 and when I was 10 years old I had a transistor radio and when I heard the song "I started a Joke" I was hooked on the band. So many years later and it's sad that Barry is the only alive now! love this song as well, And I always get teary eyed. Nice that I found your channel, Bless both of you!

    They wrote this one after they got back together and said it really represented how they all felt during the breakup. Beautiful song! Barry lead, and also Robin lead, and Mo is the harmony genius!! If you get a chance, watch their newest documentary called How Can you Mend a Broken Heart, it is the story of their rise to super star fame, then the disco crash that some DJ's brought against them and how it broke their hearts. Yep, they started singing "organically" (as Robin said) in 3-part harmony at 5 and 8 y/o in their bedroom and their mother heard them, and the rest is history!! That was in 1955 in Manchester England. They called themselves the Rattlesnakes and Wee Johnny Hayes and the Blue Cats, then they moved to Australia and changed to BG's, then Bee Gees, then they went back to England in 1967. Also try One, and again, anything from the Still Waters album!!

    The Bee Gees have a song that they wrote and sang in 1972 of course that was in a low period between the 60s and before the Disco era but this is a nice sweet little song it's kind of different than most of their other songs it's kind of a little bit of a love song but more of a Coming of Age song I think but that's one that you might like to and like I said it's a little different from their other songs it's kind of a soft pause in between the 60s and the mid-70s when they really start cranking out tons of disco and other great music. Oh I guess I forgot to actually put the name of the song in here I don't see it okay the name of that song is called run to me Real Simple Song.

  • @robin9876

    Just for kicks: The Bee Gees never even thought or knew what Disco was - they just made songs people could dance to on since those songs were for "Saturday Night Fever". They sadly said people made them miserable assuming they started disco - The say they didn't. I agree - they had to make dance songs for that movie.

  • @Noelle0026

    I would recommend doing Run To Me. It’s a beautiful one also. How Cab You Mend a Broken Heart makes me cry since the doc about them where Barry talks about losing his brothers. I’m so glad I got to see them perform in the 70s. They were so amazing!

    This was in the 60s, pre-falsetto when they used their natural voices only. Robin and Maurice were still in their teens. Robin started the song and handed the lead to Barry, and they did that with many songs after the breakup. They had more respect for each other.

    The brothers were broken and they needed to find a way to mend their broken hearts so that they could begin to live again. It was their Green from young childhood to be music stars as their own group and then when that was kind of split and you know Bad Blood kind of boiled up it definitely broke them and they needed to find their way back in their hearts and start living again living the dream that they had always had from smile small children on.
