For the young generation, this is difficult but they have to start believing that once upon a time, auto tune was not even an idea yet. Even digital was not an idea yet.
Honey, this was from the day when there was no auto-tune or any gimmicks. That's pure talent, and a lifetime spent singing together. They're brothers, the two on the side are twins, both deceased, sadly. Real voices. Maurice also wrote the song, and they donated the proceeds to charity. A class act, all the way. Not to mention gorgeous.
Yes indeed ....the short disco era. Every one clubbing all over the place. In New York City it was Studio 54 lighting it up Every weekend if not every nite.
All of the brothers had perfect pitch and despite writing hundreds of hits and playing instruments, none of them could read music. They gifted this track to UNICEF and it's made millions for the charity. I'm sure someone has already told you that the twins on either side of their big brother, have both passed and so has their younger brother called Andy. You will find some old black and white film from the very early days. Enjoy this rabbit hole. It's probably the longest ever
Michael jackson said he cried when he heard them for the first time in early 70s. 3 English brothers who grew up in Australia before returning in late 60s. They started in 1958 when kids, have written all their own songs for themselves and others. Welcome to the rabbit hole! 40 + year career. Try Staying Alive.
There is a story that they were stranded in an airport with all planes grounded for some reason. The rest of the stranded passengers started to get restive so they got up and started singing acapella. They sang hit after hit after hit in an airport lounge for the entertainment of the passengers. They were that good and had that many huge hits. True legends.
Love, love, love the Bee Gees. I am a black female, 67 yrs old, grew up with them. (A bit lengthy, but a must read.) The Bees Gees: (from left to right) Robin, Barry and Maurice (pronounced Morris) Maurice (Dec 22, 1949 - Jan. 12, 2003.) Robin (Dec. 22, 1949 - May 20, 2012.) Maurice and Robin were fraternal twins. Barry (the middle) said, 'I'm the last man standing.' He was 75 on September 1, 2021, which is also the 50th wedding anniversary with Linda. They have 5 adult children and 7 grandchildren. Barry's voice is a bit more mellow since he is older, but he continues to perform to sellout crowds!! Andy Gibb, the youngest brother, had his own successful career. He was 12 yrs younger than Barry. He and Barry looked so much alike, that they could had been twins! Andy passed away in 1988, at the age of 30. Barry stated that Andy lived the 'LA lifestyle' involving drugs, and he had heart problems. The brothers wrote all of his songs. On a side note, the first born is their sister, Lesley, who turned 78, January 12, 2022. Maurice passed on the same day as her 58th birthday. 😪Lesley didn't have an interest to be in the limelight, but she can sing. At about the age of 2, Barry reached on the table and a pot of hot tea fell on his chest and arms. You can see the shine on his chest. His mom said he did not talk for almost 2 yrs. Skin grafts were not used in the 40s, so he was in the hospital for a long time. His mom said he almost died. They wrote all of their songs, and songs for other singers, which they recorded after the songs were released for the other singers. The brothers have a VERY IMPRESSIVE catalogue of songs! I recommend the following songs: How Deep Is Your Love? ruclips.net/video/XpqqjU7u5Yc/видео.html Closer Than Close ruclips.net/video/m6XIdjEHLRs/видео.html One ruclips.net/video/KRUeMgzOCCo/видео.html You Win Again ruclips.net/video/KZY9oYSSjFI/видео.html Spirits (Having Flown) ruclips.net/video/ONmVEJnxysc/видео.html Bodyguard ruclips.net/video/Fx5XwIKCs3o/видео.html Emotion (Destiny's Child did a cover on this, but IMO Samantha Sang (original) is MUCH better. ruclips.net/video/b_wTZjo9azk/видео.html At one time 5 of their songs were in the top 10. Another time, four of the songs that were written by them for others were in the top 5. A song that Barry wrote for Andy was #2, but then it went to #1, and the Bee Gees song became #2
I have watched several "first time" witnessing the Bee Gees and I find it hard to believe that this many people have never heard of them before. AMAZING
I believe there are this many people who have never heard the Bee Gees before because after the "Disco Demolition" night that they were not played here in the US for decades! The only reason my kids know of them is because I have played them over and over again. However, none of their friends and none of my grandkids friends have ever heard of them. The Bee Gees have just recently seen a resurgence into the music world as artists have begun remaking their music and Barry has remade many of their songs on his album "Greenfields".
"First Time Hearing" reaction? He's singing along less than a minute after they start singing. Knowing the lyrics of a song you've never heard before is a talent indeed...
1000 registered songs; 150 million albums: 100 top 40 songs; 21number 1 songs; USA UK ROCK N ROLL HALL OF FAME MEMBERS one of the greatest recoding groups is all time (Beatles Michael Jackson Elvis Presley Bee Gees everything mowtown)
YES, were their real voices - and YES, they sounded just like this in concert. Perfection. So in sync it almost sounded like one voice, especially Robin and Barry ("King of the Falsetto" - center). You will NEVER again hear this kind of flawless, tight harmonies as the Brothers Gibb. Your reaction, is on-target, being amazed by what you've heard. Good news - There's SO many more songs. Try "Nights on Broadway" - Midnight Special video - that's LIVE, guaranteed. Keep listening...You'll become a fan of the Bee Gees easily as I did in the 1970's!
I have never heard of a human being alive that has never heard one of the Bee Gees songs. I am so glad that you listened to this. In my opinion the Bee Gees are the best most beautiful vocalist and the most talented songwriters on the planet. Their harmonies their voices their lyrics their personalities are perfection in my eyes.
@@Fremen1971 Agreed, love all their voices, Robins especially. Barry is wonderful in this though. I didn't realise the vocals were layered in this song though, I thought it was just recorded once with the three of them. But they sung different parts multiple times which were then amalgamated to make a fuller, richer sound.
@@Fremen1971, Robin had a vibratto, which in of itself is quite unique by himself. Yet, with the rest of his brothers combined was sheer heaven to listen to.
They are three brothers, and those are their real voices. They wrote this in 1978, for UNICEF, and 100% of the proceeds from this song still go to that children's organization today.
I grew up listening to the Bee Gee Brothers, & you have no idea how happy it makes me, to see the younger generation discover the music we fell in love with !!! All three brothers had amazing falsetto's, however, Barry Gibb, in my opinion, has the most unique falsetto, because in his falsetto, he also used his vibrato, which is rare! They span over many decades, & crossed quite a few genres, so if you choose to go down this rabbit hole, you will have a terrific journey!! I believe, that if there is music in Heaven, it would sound like the Bee Gee's ❤️❤️❤️
It is incredibly difficult to use a vibrato in falsetto but Barry made it look easy. For a listen to their ranges I'd take a look at Nights On Broadway and Fanny Be Tender. While recording “Nights on Broadway,” producer Arif Mardin asked that someone harmonize while screaming in the background, Maurice remembered. That was the first time Barry sang falsetto. “I was thinking, my god, where is this coming from? I can do this. My whole life I never knew I could do this,” Barry joked. They've been performing since the 50's but didn't become The Bee Gees until the 60's. They ranged from pop to R&B to disco. Outside of their falsettos all 3 brothers are fantastic tenors with Barry being able to hit in the upper baritone range as well.
The 70's and 80's produced by far the best performers not just the Bee Gees even though they are great. Check out AC DC, Queen, Fleetwood Mac, The Eagles, ABBA, Metallica, The Carpenters and the list goes on. We don't have anyone even close today.
This is real. Most talented group ever. Wrote all of their music , incredible voices and musicians. Wrote many songs for other artists. Highly recommend you review more of The Bee Gees!
No tricks, just three brothers who've sung together since they were little boys. And the one on the right wrote all their songs. They donated all the proceeds from this song to UNICEF children's fund. Very special people.
You might want to check, but Robin did not write all their songs 🤔... As a songwriter, Barry shares with John Lennon and Paul McCartney the record for most consecutive Billboard Hot 100 number ones, each having six. In total, Barry has written or co-written sixteen Billboard Hot 100 number ones. Guinness World Records lists Barry Gibb as the second most successful songwriter in history, behind McCartney.
The Bee Gees were the greatest ever! Their music touches your heart and soul!! Watch Fanny be tender with my love! Incredible song; but I warn you; you are going down the rabbit hole!!! Enjoy the ride!
This group, our musical geniuses!! You got a lot of songs to learn! I'm 56, years old I've been listening to them since as I was 11. They are my favorite group of all time. Forever and ever!! Musical geniuses!! There's actually four brothers, three of past passed on way too early. Andy had his own solo career. Enjoy!! You're going to love their music love
Watch the documentary that came out last year. “The Bee Gees: How Can You Mend a Broken Heart”. Barry (that gorgeous falsetto voice) is the only one left of the brothers. He’s in the movie and you feel the joy, pain, and sorrow, as well as appreciate their ridiculous talent. Singers, musicians, songwriters. Over decades they wrote hit after hit after hit. Enjoy!
When they sing.....you never want the song to end......angelical...spiritual....unbelievable beauty for the ears. They were simply..... AMAZING. GOD GIVEN TALENT.......no auto tune....no tricks....just TALENT. Check out the righteous brothers too ....unchained melody to start with....it was a solo....and then any of their duet songs after that.
The Bee Gees are Icons, this song Too Much Heaven was special because they donated all their Royalties to Unicef to help the children. You have got to see Saturday night Fever the film and listen to all the album mostly written by the Bee Gees featuring other artists why because in Saturday Night Fever a young John Travolta lead role and struts his stuff on and off the dance floor, then a year later he starred in Grease also influenced by Saturday night Fever. check it out
The brothers have been singing together since kids. Born on the Isle of Man then family moved to Manchester then migrated to Australia. Barry is sadly the only one left alive. He lives mainly in Florida, but still has a house in UK too.
If you would be interested in the hearing the extent of Barry's vocal range, Might I suggest "Winds of change Live 1976" and "I could not love you more". Picking a favorite BGs song is like trying to pick your favorite child lol
The three brothers are simply angelic. This is way before auto tune - it’s all them. Their harmony, range and song writing skills are second to none. You have started down the Bee Gee rabbit hole, my friend. Check out Fanny Be Tender and Nights on Broadway.
Musicians back in the day were just pure talent. They gave the people a piece of themselves and you feel it deep in your soul on a cellular level. It's pure talent. Thank you for keeping our music alive
You will have heard their music but never realised, not only did they have a huge catalog of music but wrote a huge amount of music for other singers. No auto tune for these guys just huge natural talent. Listen to World their is a part in it that will send shivers down your spine, I have heard it hundreds and hundreds of times and still get goosebumps.
Yes it is , one of the best bands in my day. They are brothers Barry, Robin, and Maurice, Barry is the only one living. They wrote all their music. I’m sure you’ve heard their song Staying Alive
Best ever group and their harmonies were fantastic. They have loads of great songs through many decades. Beside this one, one of my favourites is 'You Win Again'.
It’s called music. Real music has a conversation with your soul. The voices are real. No auto tune back then, just pure God given talent and true creative artistry.
Nothing better than family harmonies. Singing together since the early 60s when they were so young. Prolific song writers, all they sing, they wrote. And you would be shocked at home many songs they have written for other top artists over the years.
Been a fan since the mid 60s. They have gone through many phases in their careers and have so very many songs that are all jewels. Barry the eldest, the twins Robin and Maurice blazed a path which inspired their baby brother Andy who had his own brilliant career. Unfortunately, Andy died in 1988 and later Maurice in 2003, followed by Robin in 2012. It is tough watching Barry speak about them in past tense but any of the documentaries of them are worthy of your time. You must look at some of their early videos. Enjoy!
You my friend have entered the Bee Gee world! I don’t know that there is a song that they’ve ever saying that will let you down. They’re amazing songwriters! Barry is the oldest one in the middle and the two on either side of him or fraternal twins, Robin and Maurice. Their younger brother Andy died in the 1980s. And he looked a lot like Barry and sounded like him as well.
Love your reaction, you gotta keep going!!! I am a 56 yr old grandmother and love, love, love them and have only recently come across a few I have never heard as life got in the way and was too busy I guess. It's become a hobby for me to watch Bee Gee's reaction videos early morning when it's quiet. "For whom the bell tolls", "love so right", "fanny be tender with my love" are a few just recently discovered by me, and all their music is so amazing. Have loads of fun!!!
They are absolutely great. I was around as they became famous and have literally listened to hours and hours of such beautiful music. They are brothers and have sang together since they were 6 for the twins Robin and Maurice and Barry was 9. So much talent. There is a HBO documentary called How to Mend a Broken Heart which tells of their lives from childhood. Great reaction I could see you could feel it.
The Bee Gees are AMAZING, so much emotion listen to " You Should Be Dancing", SO HYPE!!...they also had a younger brother, Andy Gibb, who topped the charts at #1 in the U.S. the same time his older brothers did. Andy looked just like Barry!! Check out Andy Gibb " Shadow Dancing" or " I Just Wanna Be Your Everything". He's just as smooth as his older brothers, and the Bee Gees sang back up on his songs too!!💗💗
Nunca mais ouviremos vozes tão perfeitas, harmônicas, maravilhosas e divinas como essas! Ouço desde a minha infância! Amo, amo, amo demais! Bee Gees, The Best! They are uniques! From Paquetá Island - Rio de Janeiro - RJ - Brazil! 💖💖💖💖✨✨✨✨🙏🙏🙏🙏🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Three brothers, harmonizing into one mic, a live orchestra, one take, no auto tune! Just magic, pure talented magic! Stayin Alive, How Deep Is Your Love…dozens of hits!
I came across your channel while searching for reactions to Bee Gees music. I love how you said Too Much Heaven Had A Motown vibe. The Bee Gees are fantastic! The Bee Gees loved Black Music. In fact, producer Quincy Jones said the song Fanny( Be Tender With My Love) has to be one of his favorite R&B songs. The BeeGees wrote and performed this song. The Bee Gees wrote the song To Love Somebody for Otis Reading. Unfortunately, he died before he could record the song. Luckily. The Bee Gees recorded it themselves. I absolutely feel that The Bee Gees have the best harmonies!
'Nights on Broadway' is another great song. Forty plus years of fantastic music from these Brother Gibbs. FYI they had a younger brother Andy, also had great hits.
I’m sure this has been mentioned. They’re brothers & have been performing together as a trio since the late 50s. They write & perform their own material. Barry Gibb the oldest & the one in the middle. Had to be one of the most prolific songwriters. He’s also written for other artist...Island’s In The Stream, released as a single by Dolly Parton & Kenny Rogers is an example. There’s another brother, his name was Andy Gibb. He was the youngest and had a solo career.
Thank you for that, it was one of the best reaction videos I've seen on the BeeGees. Yes, that's their real voices. That's why guys my age don't care for most of the music made today. For more heart-moving BeeGees songs listen to For Whom the Bell Tolls and Fanny Be Tender.
@@justjord4088 They were influenced by The Stylistics and Delfonics soul groups of the 60s and 70s. React to The stylistics songs. , you make me feel brand new, betcha by golly wow, you are everything, break up to make up. Delfonics. La La Means I Love You, Break up to make up
The only bands to outsell these guys were The Beatles and The Supremes insofar as their own music is concerned.. But Barry and Maurice are particularly gifted songwriters as well and have written songs for some of the world's greatest artists. In terms of their song-writing, nobody else even comes close. They are THE original "boy band'.
Amazing and angelic voices' harmony was Bee Gees 'characteristic. The way their voices matched was incredible, from outerspace💕💕💕💕💕💕👍👍👍👍👍👍👍I 've been adoring them since I was 12.
Notice the fine musicianship in this song, too. It was fun watching you enjoy it. They were actually brothers. Keep listening to those 60s, 70s and 80s bands.
They started singing in the 50's, minor songs/records in the mid 60's, first major record in 1967 (Bee Gees 1st). My recommendations: Late 60's/early 70's: To Love Somebody, Massachusetts, I've Gotta Get A Message To You, I Started A Joke, Lonely Days. Commercial peak (mid to late 70's): Nights On Broadway, Jive Talkin', You Should Be Dancing, Stayin' Alive, How Deep Is Your Love, Tragedy Post Saturday Night Fever era: You Win Again, Shape Of Things To Come, One, Fallen Angel, Alone, This Is Where I Came In.
Music from the 60s through the 80s was a special time in history. The talent pool was deep. The Bee Gees were just a small part of that history, but they definitely left their mark with their unique vocal style. They gave us some great songs. I love seeing the younger generation discovering the talent of this era.
I'm 58 years old and I love the beautiful music that we had back in the 60 s through the 80s. Today's music doesn't give you that loving feeling as the music from back then. We were blessed who got to live through that. I am glad to see more young people on this journey with this music.

Real voices. No auto tune. Just them.
For the young generation, this is difficult but they have to start believing that once upon a time, auto tune was not even an idea yet. Even digital was not an idea yet.
Just three brothers in sync
It does my heart well to see younger people react to the masterpieces we had back in the 70s. No one could harmonize like the Brothers Gibb. NOBODY!!
Wouldn’t it be amazing if they could see the reactions to their songs
AMEN BABY!! 5 decades of amazing harmonies!!
Amen to that 🙏
Honey, this was from the day when there was no auto-tune or any gimmicks. That's pure talent, and a lifetime spent singing together. They're brothers, the two on the side are twins, both deceased, sadly. Real voices. Maurice also wrote the song, and they donated the proceeds to charity. A class act, all the way.

Being a teen-ager in the 70's was sooo great. We had the best music!
Indeed. You had the best of the best.
Rose55 I would say 60s and 70s for sure. There is some good music today but there was ALL good music then
Yes indeed ....the short disco era. Every one clubbing all over the place.
In New York City it was Studio 54 lighting it up
Every weekend if not every nite.
We had the best, for sure! No auto tune needed, just pure talent!
You seem to have to dig deeper these days for anything close to this.
All of the brothers had perfect pitch and despite writing hundreds of hits and playing instruments, none of them could read music. They gifted this track to UNICEF and it's made millions for the charity. I'm sure someone has already told you that the twins on either side of their big brother, have both passed and so has their younger brother called Andy. You will find some old black and white film from the very early days. Enjoy this rabbit hole. It's probably the longest ever
Michael jackson said he cried when he heard them for the first time in early 70s. 3 English brothers who grew up in Australia before returning in late 60s. They started in 1958 when kids, have written all their own songs for themselves and others. Welcome to the rabbit hole! 40 + year career. Try Staying Alive.
Andy their baby brother was phenomenal in his own career but died so young RIP
Damn...thats insane
Their music is so good that it made the king of pop cry😱
Iconic
I get Michael Jackson's reaction...he's a pure heart! Thanks for sharing that🌟💜🌟
There is a story that they were stranded in an airport with all planes grounded for some reason. The rest of the stranded passengers started to get restive so they got up and started singing acapella. They sang hit after hit after hit in an airport lounge for the entertainment of the passengers. They were that good and had that many huge hits. True legends.
Wow! Sooo cool of BGs to do that! Easy flo...total Heart!💜
Thanks for sharing that story 🌟💜🌟✌🏼☺️
They are in a whole genre of their own.
Fanny be tender. Like this beautiful song it will blow your mind . Amazing vocals!
Everything you hear from the Bee Gees gets better and better. They always sound incredible. They will never let you down.

The Brilliant Bgees...all live..no auto queue
4 songs.....hahaha
I have never heard of a human being alive that has never heard one of the Bee Gees songs. I am so glad that you listened to this. In my opinion the Bee Gees are the best most beautiful vocalist and the most talented songwriters on the planet. Their harmonies their voices their lyrics their personalities are perfection in my eyes.
Bro, those harmonies though! And Barry's falsetto voice! This is back in the days when songs were written like love letters haha. Loved the reaction 💙
If you'll pay attention to when Barry isn't singing, you'll realize the twins have great falsettos, as well.
@@Fremen1971 Agreed, love all their voices, Robins especially. Barry is wonderful in this though.

It really was a magical time back then__was it not?
The BEE GEES were the best. No one has ever topped them. This is their real voices and they wrote all their own music.
They sound just the same live ,they need no autotune ,nothing just a mike ! Pure talent !
Pure talent
Sadly robin and maurice are no longer with us RIP
The other brother Andy also passed way too soon...
That's the way we did it in the 60s and 70s..no autotune... it's live.
check out "More than a woman" "Love you inside out" "You should be dancing" "Night fever" "Jive talkin" "Stayin alive" some other great songs by them
Don't forget "Nights on Broadway" or "Fanny Be Tender"!! Everything is Awesome!!
And older hits back to mid 60s
They are three brothers, and those are their real voices. They wrote this in 1978, for UNICEF, and 100% of the proceeds from this song still go to that children's organization today.

Real voices? Yes. Live. For charity. They received not a penny. They made the world better.
First hit in the US was in 1967. Too Much Heaven was in 1978.
And back in the day no such thing as auto tune…just talent
Sooo true! Wish everyone could listen&understand!
There were ways of fixing bad singers back then too
It is incredibly difficult to use a vibrato in falsetto but Barry made it look easy. For a listen to their ranges I'd take a look at Nights On Broadway and Fanny Be Tender.
While recording “Nights on Broadway,” producer Arif Mardin asked that someone harmonize while screaming in the background, Maurice remembered. That was the first time Barry sang falsetto.
“I was thinking, my god, where is this coming from? I can do this. My whole life I never knew I could do this,” Barry joked.

The Bee Gee's were famous in the 1970's. They are brothers. They are from England. They had hit after hit for the whole decade. 7-30-2021
The 70's and 80's produced by far the best performers not just the Bee Gees even though they are great. Check out AC DC, Queen, Fleetwood Mac, The Eagles, ABBA, Metallica, The Carpenters and the list goes on. We don't have anyone even close today.
BeeGees = 3 brothers who wrote 100s of songs. Saturday night fever they done the songs and music. They were best live and always sounded perfect.
This is real. Most talented group ever. Wrote all of their music , incredible voices and musicians. Wrote many songs for other artists. Highly recommend you review more of The Bee Gees!
Best harmony & vocal band that has ever lived ! Bee Gees !! Never be beaten !! Never !
No tricks, just three brothers who've sung together since they were little boys. And the one on the right wrote all their songs. They donated all the proceeds from this song to UNICEF children's fund. Very special people.
You might want to check, but Robin did not write all their songs 🤔... As a songwriter, Barry shares with John Lennon and Paul McCartney the record for most consecutive Billboard Hot 100 number ones, each having six. In total, Barry has written or co-written sixteen Billboard Hot 100 number ones. Guinness World Records lists Barry Gibb as the second most successful songwriter in history, behind McCartney.
@@edhughes7235 Actually, I thought Maurice was the song writer! I still like what they did very much.
They harmonize so well because they are brothers. They didn't always do the falsetto but when they did, it was breathtaking.
I was never a big BeeGee's fan, but after watching all the reaction videos on them, I have a whole new appreciation for their music.
You have to listen American reactions to decide they were good..really ?
The Bee Gees were the greatest ever! Their music touches your heart and soul!! Watch Fanny be tender with my love! Incredible song; but I warn you; you are going down the rabbit hole!!! Enjoy the ride!
This group, our musical geniuses!! You got a lot of songs to learn! I'm 56, years old I've been listening to them since as I was 11. They are my favorite group of all time. Forever and ever!! Musical geniuses!! There's actually four brothers, three of past passed on way too early. Andy had his own solo career. Enjoy!! You're going to love their music love
Real voices!!🎼
Watch the documentary that came out last year. “The Bee Gees: How Can You Mend a Broken Heart”. Barry (that gorgeous falsetto voice) is the only one left of the brothers. He’s in the movie and you feel the joy, pain, and sorrow, as well as appreciate their ridiculous talent. Singers, musicians, songwriters. Over decades they wrote hit after hit after hit. Enjoy!
yes, Netflix, The Beegees, How do you mend a broken heart........,great documentary....
This is how angels sing. ❤️🇬🇧 Thank you.
He breaks when he hears the highest... not knowing they are about to go a 1/2 octave higher yet
No one can harmonize like family members...these brothers were the best!
In a way that others like the Beach Boys, Mamas and Papas, or later Boys to Men could not do. Genetics made a difference.
When they sing.....you never want the song to end......angelical...spiritual....unbelievable beauty for the ears. They were simply..... AMAZING. GOD GIVEN TALENT.......no auto tune....no tricks....just TALENT. Check out the righteous brothers too ....unchained melody to start with....it was a solo....and then any of their duet songs after that.
The Bee Gees are Icons, this song Too Much Heaven was special because they donated all their Royalties to Unicef to help the children.
You have got to see Saturday night Fever the film and listen to all the album mostly written by the Bee Gees featuring other artists why because in Saturday Night Fever a young John Travolta lead role and struts his stuff on and off the dance floor, then a year later he starred in Grease also influenced by Saturday night Fever.
check it out
By the way - what a perfect song for your introduction to the Bee Gees! One of their absolute best, in my opinion.
I so agree.
E.c
The brothers have been singing together since kids. Born on the Isle of Man then family moved to Manchester then migrated to Australia. Barry is sadly the only one left alive. He lives mainly in Florida, but still has a house in UK too.
If you would be interested in the hearing the extent of Barry's vocal range, Might I suggest "Winds of change Live 1976" and "I could not love you more". Picking a favorite BGs song is like trying to pick your favorite child lol
Nights on Broadway. Absolutely incredible.
The best 3 voice harmony ever!
The three brothers are simply angelic. This is way before auto tune - it’s all them. Their harmony, range and song writing skills are second to none. You have started down the Bee Gee rabbit hole, my friend. Check out Fanny Be Tender and Nights on Broadway.
Musicians back in the day were just pure talent. They gave the people a piece of themselves and you feel it deep in your soul on a cellular level. It's pure talent.
Thank you for keeping our music alive
You will have heard their music but never realised, not only did they have a huge catalog of music but wrote a huge amount of music for other singers. No auto tune for these guys just huge natural talent. Listen to World their is a part in it that will send shivers down your spine, I have heard it hundreds and hundreds of times and still get goosebumps.
Yes it is , one of the best bands in my day. They are brothers Barry, Robin, and Maurice, Barry is the only one living. They wrote all their music. I’m sure you’ve heard their song Staying Alive
Best ever group and their harmonies were fantastic. They have loads of great songs through many decades. Beside this one, one of my favourites is 'You Win Again'.
"Best ever group", AMEN!
Barry's falceto was stunning he is the last of the bros still alive nad still has that stunning voice\
The Bee Gees have many great songs but as a fist time reaction song Too Much Heaven is thee one to hear 👍
Real voices no auto tune in those days! They have an incredible catalogue , it’s a huge rabbit hole!
The Bee Gees were the greatest ever!! Their music touches your heart and soul!! Watch Fanny be tender with my love!! Awesome song!!
It was the 70’s. I miss those days. These guys didn’t read or write music, they felt the music.
It’s called music. Real music has a conversation with your soul. The voices are real. No auto tune back then, just pure God given talent and true creative artistry.
Nothing better than family harmonies. Singing together since the early 60s when they were so young. Prolific song writers, all they sing, they wrote. And you would be shocked at home many songs they have written for other top artists over the years.
Been a fan since the mid 60s. They have gone through many phases in their careers and have so very many songs that are all jewels. Barry the eldest, the twins Robin and Maurice blazed a path which inspired their baby brother Andy who had his own brilliant career. Unfortunately, Andy died in 1988 and later Maurice in 2003, followed by Robin in 2012. It is tough watching Barry speak about them in past tense but any of the documentaries of them are worthy of your time. You must look at some of their early videos. Enjoy!
These men are amazing
You my friend have entered the Bee Gee world! I don’t know that there is a song that they’ve ever saying that will let you down. They’re amazing songwriters! Barry is the oldest one in the middle and the two on either side of him or fraternal twins, Robin and Maurice. Their younger brother Andy died in the 1980s. And he looked a lot like Barry and sounded like him as well.
Love your reaction, you gotta keep going!!! I am a 56 yr old grandmother and love, love, love them and have only recently come across a few I have never heard as life got in the way and was too busy I guess. It's become a hobby for me to watch Bee Gee's reaction videos early morning when it's quiet. "For whom the bell tolls", "love so right", "fanny be tender with my love" are a few just recently discovered by me, and all their music is so amazing. Have loads of fun!!!
Its their real voices. Luv yur reaction. Please listen to more of this phenomenal brothers. I promise u will NOT be disappointed
They are absolutely great. I was around as they became famous and have literally listened to hours and hours of such beautiful music. They are brothers and have sang together since they were 6 for the twins Robin and Maurice and Barry was 9. So much talent. There is a HBO documentary called How to Mend a Broken Heart which tells of their lives from childhood. Great reaction I could see you could feel it.
The Bee Gees are AMAZING, so much emotion listen to " You Should Be Dancing", SO HYPE!!...they also had a younger brother, Andy Gibb, who topped the charts at #1 in the U.S. the same time his older brothers did. Andy looked just like Barry!! Check out Andy Gibb " Shadow Dancing" or " I Just Wanna Be Your Everything". He's just as smooth as his older brothers, and the Bee Gees sang back up on his songs too!!💗💗
They're for real and have been for 50 years. Perfection in vocals and harmonies.
Nunca mais ouviremos vozes tão perfeitas, harmônicas, maravilhosas e divinas como essas! Ouço desde a minha infância! Amo, amo, amo demais! Bee Gees, The Best! They are uniques! From Paquetá Island - Rio de Janeiro - RJ - Brazil! 💖💖💖💖✨✨✨✨🙏🙏🙏🙏🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Three brothers, harmonizing into one mic, a live orchestra, one take, no auto tune! Just magic, pure talented magic! Stayin Alive, How Deep Is Your Love…dozens of hits!
I came across your channel while searching for reactions to Bee Gees music.
I love how you said Too Much Heaven Had A Motown vibe.
The Bee Gees are fantastic!
The Bee Gees loved Black Music.
In fact, producer Quincy Jones said the song Fanny( Be Tender With My Love) has to be one of his favorite R&B songs. The BeeGees wrote and performed this song.
The Bee Gees wrote the song To Love Somebody for Otis Reading. Unfortunately, he died before he could record the song. Luckily. The Bee Gees recorded it themselves.
I absolutely feel that The Bee Gees have the best harmonies!
The Bee Gees are so Angelic it's crazy!
'Nights on Broadway' is another great song. Forty plus years of fantastic music from these Brother Gibbs. FYI they had a younger brother Andy, also had great hits.
I grew up with these songs ❤ They’re angelic 😊
I’m sure this has been mentioned. They’re brothers & have been performing together as a trio since the late 50s. They write & perform their own material. Barry Gibb the oldest & the one in the middle. Had to be one of the most prolific songwriters.
He’s also written for other artist...Island’s In The Stream, released as a single by Dolly Parton & Kenny Rogers is an example.
There’s another brother, his name was Andy Gibb. He was the youngest and had a solo career.
Also, listen to the Stylistics, who have a similar style to the Bee Gees including that falsetto sound.
Thank you for that, it was one of the best reaction videos I've seen on the BeeGees. Yes, that's their real voices. That's why guys my age don't care for most of the music made today. For more heart-moving BeeGees songs listen to For Whom the Bell Tolls and Fanny Be Tender.
Appreciate! We are the beat reaction channel out there! Happy for you to be apart of us! 🙏❤️
Best*
@@justjord4088 They were influenced by The Stylistics and Delfonics soul groups of the 60s and 70s. React to The stylistics songs. , you make me feel brand new, betcha by golly wow, you are everything, break up to make up. Delfonics. La La Means I Love You, Break up to make up
The only bands to outsell these guys were The Beatles and The Supremes insofar as their own music is concerned.. But Barry and Maurice are particularly gifted songwriters as well and have written songs for some of the world's greatest artists. In terms of their song-writing, nobody else even comes close. They are THE original "boy band'.
I loved your reaction to them and this song. They do have incredible and heavenly voices. ❤ I also love your accent. Its gorgeous. 💋
Family harmonies are always stunningly extraordinary. E.g Lennon Sisters 😉
They have many hits from the 60s through the 90s. So many, different sounds, all ranges. My favorite is Fanny be tender with your love.
The bee gees have been singing ever since they were children in 1967
Amazing and angelic voices' harmony was Bee Gees 'characteristic. The way their voices matched was incredible, from outerspace💕💕💕💕💕💕👍👍👍👍👍👍👍I 've been adoring them since I was 12.
Notice the fine musicianship in this song, too.
It was fun watching you enjoy it. They were actually brothers.
Keep listening to those 60s, 70s and 80s bands.
They had a younger brother Andy who was a solo artist who sadly passed away too soon at the age of 30 from a heart attack from cocaine abuse 😔💞
They started singing in the 50's, minor songs/records in the mid 60's, first major record in 1967 (Bee Gees 1st). My recommendations:
Late 60's/early 70's: To Love Somebody, Massachusetts, I've Gotta Get A Message To You, I Started A Joke, Lonely Days.
Commercial peak (mid to late 70's): Nights On Broadway, Jive Talkin', You Should Be Dancing, Stayin' Alive, How Deep Is Your Love, Tragedy
Post Saturday Night Fever era: You Win Again, Shape Of Things To Come, One, Fallen Angel, Alone, This Is Where I Came In.
Excellent reaction!!! That's exactly how I reacted when I first heard this song. Unbelievable falsettos.
Music from the 60s through the 80s was a special time in history. The talent pool was deep. The Bee Gees were just a small part of that history, but they definitely left their mark with their unique vocal style. They gave us some great songs. I love seeing the younger generation discovering the talent of this era.
Welcome to the Bee Gees rabbit hole. You've had to hear "Stayin' Alive before!
I love your reaction to this iconic song. I have adored them most of my life. ❤️
just real voices back then. you´ll find dozens of songs by them on that level (and by the way: you WILL KNOW a busload of these).
YOU MUST LISTEN TO ALL THEIR GREAT HITS
YOU'LL REALLY BE AMAZED 👍👏👏💕
GREW UP WITH THEM....
I'm 58 years old and I love the beautiful music that we had back in the 60 s through the 80s. Today's music doesn't give you that loving feeling as the music from back then. We were blessed who got to live through that. I am glad to see more young people on this journey with this music.
Takes me right back to my childhood. Their lyrics and harmonies were so pure and wholesome.
I was fortunate to grow up in the 50's, 60's, 70's, and 80's. You men have so much music to explore, you can't even imagine.
Bee Gees are awesome. I grew up with their music and yes, those are their real voices. Check out other songs and you will be amazed!!
You must listen to Fanny be tender with my love, you hear all their voices distinctively . Incredible.
Michael McDonald- I Keep Forgetting. He was the lead for the Doobie Brother.
Im having so much fun watching all u youngsters discovering the best musical group of all time.
Me too, along with hearing this wonderful song on repeat!
They are brothers. The two on the ends are twins. The one in the middle is the older. They have been singing since they were little in the 50s.
🐝🐝🐝Gees best love song pull on ur heart strings 💋💋💋❤️❤️❤️
This is one of my absolute favorites. Thank you for your amazing reaction. ❤️
Every time listening to the Bee Gees is like the first time and NEVER disappoints.
