I wish you people would do yr RESESRCH b4 you give these Evil People Such Praise .... find out who they really were and how They All Received Their Talent (Not Born With It)....
“Shadow Dancing” was a big hit during the summer of 1978. I was a 22 year old black woman with a bad sense of rhythm and this song was guaranteed to always get me dancing on the dance floor. Andy Gibb was the perfect example of “blue eyed soul”. He had a beautiful voice and with his brothers (the Bee Gees) singing backup this song was a big hit during a summer that had so many good songs. People make fun of the disco era, but the late 1970s had the most amazing music.
"Desire" is the only song with all four brothers singing on it......although not together. The Bee Gees recorded it about 18 months earlier, did not release it, and then Barry dubbed his voice, and Andy's voice, onto it to release for Andy.
@@OhJodi69 "Shadow Dancing" is the only one with the 4 brothers listed as songwriters, although they didn't all appear on it. "Desire" and another song, "Arrow Through the Heart", which was released posthumously on the Mythology box set has all four brothers performing on it.
It’s one of three that were credited formally - “Where Do I Go?” from Jimmy Ruffin’s “Sunrise” album and “Experience” from Diana Ross’ “Eaten Alive” are also B, R, M & A Gibb compositions.
Arguably, the greatest song writing team since the beatles, as well as Incredible performers. NONE of those eight persons mentioned, couldn’t read or write music…🤐
I love this song. So sad we lost him so young. Barry is the last one. It has to be hard on him not having his brothers. Andy had the same vocal skills as the Bee Gee’s. You picked a winner on this one. 👍🏻👍🏻
I saw Barry in an interview about a year or so ago. Barry said he would give up all the fame and fortune he had just to have all 3 of his brothers back.
What a shame we lost him so young! He was a talented guy and had that Brothers Gibb style. I'm so glad I got to see my handsome teen idol in concert in 1978!
Andy was my first concert (and probably my first celebrity crush, although that could have been John Travolta), I was 8. My second concert was The Bee Gees. My mom loved them all too and took me and my bff.
Those Gibb boys sure are talented. I was in love with Andy! He had a solo career but when your older brothers are The BeeGees of course they will help their baby brother. So much talent and tragedy in one family.
Absolutely! Yes, his brothers wrote all his music and it was a shared thing because he had the same vocal DNA they had and wanted to get his talent out there too! All those guys had great singing voices.
@@daviclar867Maurice & Robin only helped write 3 of Andy's songs & sang backing vocals on 1. Andy was very talented in his own right, but big brother Barry helped write many of Andy's songs (including his biggest hits) & sang backing vocals on most tracks.
I get a bit teary eyed EVERY TIME. It was like a punch in the gut when I heard on the news that he had passed. I was in shock. He was my first celebrity crush when I saw him on TV for the fist time when I was 8 years old. Andy will always have a special place in my heart.
I am 59 years old. Andy Gibb, Shaun Cassidy and Rick Springfield were my heart throbs, poster on the wall. So nice to see the younger folks listening to the music of my time.......God I miss the late 70's and 80's
Andy was like Barry’s twin, but born much later. I absolutely love him. He was such a lovely guy, so talented. He’d trained as a pilot before he passed. He’s survived and recovered. God rest his soul❤️
They did!!! All of the older brothers supported their little brother. But this song... SMH... It's the FUNK!!! This song is so good. So danceable, yet there was so much emotion going on in the song too, that you had to take pause to just feel. I love it! It's my favorite song by Andy. Lyrics, music, harmonies, arrangement... EVERYTHING!!! But I loved everything Andy and Bee Gees, so... You have to give it to the brothers. They knew how to put together a song from head to toe. Their music has so many layers. They were MASTERS!!!
My late wife used to hangout next door to Andy in Florida said what a kind and humble person he was, she always saw him playing basketball. What a shame he was very talented. The Gibb Brothers had so much heartbreak In their lives.
I cried when my brother’s friend sat on my “Shadow Dancing” record and broke it in half. He didn’t do it on purpose, but he laughed. I was only 8. So mean!!
Perfection... wasn't Andy magnificent. Jamel we adore you, your smile lights up any room. You are our oxygen. Another fabulous reaction, thank you Sir. xxxxxx
Andy was amazing.. there was no auto tune back then an Mic was his voice...so iconic on Gibbs nobody in this life time could ever hit falsettos like them ever... people need start checking there sister out because shes a beast to
Barry wrote Andy's first 5 songs, all hit #1 on the charts...Gibb brothers sang back up...Andy was planning to join the Bee Gees, after completing his current contract per interview with brothers, but passed away before that happened. Very sad to lose such a talented young man with so much potential.
@JamelAkaJamel Andy Gibb was the baby brother. He was so talented. He had his own solo career this was his solo this was not done with the beegees as their band but I believe the brothers are on this one. He had many hits. Solo Career I think he always wanted to be with his older brothers. The brothers were in the background on this one they've seen together many times Andy I think always wanted to be a member of the actual main bee gees band. You could tell sometimes in the videos of documentaries that they did or interviews you could see almost a sadness in Andy. We're up with these guys and Andy was very talented but he also had issues and he had a broken heart. It's too bad it was a tragedy that he died so young. He was dating Victoria principal from the television show Dallas. he loved her he ended up with a bad drug problem and I believe he died of a heart attack.
I had this man's posters on my wall. Loved him more than his brothers. My Dad surprised me and my friend and got us tickets for his Shadow Dancing tour concert after church and we went that night. We sat in nose bleed seats, with tons of screaming girls and grown women, while my Dad fell asleep. LOL. BEST DAD EVER!
Back in the day, Andy Gibb had three number one hits - "I JUST WANT TO BE YOUR EVERYTHING", "(LOVE IS) THICKER THAN WATER" and "SHADOW DANCING". His tracks "AN EVERLASTING LOVE", "DESIRE" and "(OUR LOVE) DON'T THROW IT ALL AWAY" scored in the top ten. Sadly, his voice went forever quiet way too soon, at the age of 30.
Love me some Andy Gibb!!! Was IN LOVE WITH HIM!!! Had posters, all his albums oh my what a sad day when he died!!! I was heartbroken for a LONG TIME! TFS!👍🏻🐶🐶💕🙏🏻
I was 9! Seriously, 1978 (and part of 1979) was the time of The Bee Gees and Andy Gibb. They were playing on all the pop and R&B stations, they were on TV. The guy who drove my bus to school would have the radio on and we kids would try to sing in harmony with them. I have their albums now, but as a kid, I didn't need them; their songs were played so often for almost 2 years that I knew all the words.
I was always a new kid at a new school. I was always so worried about being accepted or bullied... I would practice little dances to these songs (especially this one lol) as if they'd be like, "we have a new student, and she will be doing her interpretive dance to Andy Gibb" and they'd all love me hahaa Never panned out🤣😂
I've loved Andy since I was a pre teen in '78! And i took a lot of teasing about it too, lol. He had his own solo career supported by his famous brothers of course. He made my heart go pitter patter. Gone too soon at 30 yrs old.
Awe Andy Gibb. I remember when I was small, I used to see him hosting Solid Gold with Marilyn McCoo A few years ago I was living in Woodland Hills and found out Andy had lived off Winnetka / 101 back in the 80s. Gone too soon
The Bee Gees formed their group when Andy was born, so Andy was not apart of the Bee Gees because he was so much younger. Then when he was older he just went in a soloist direction.
Aww, my man! Little known fact, in 1979 (I was almost 10), I decided that when I grew up I would marry Andy! I planned to changed my name to Tina and marry my first crush! Tina Gibb!!! HAHAHAHAHA! Alas, in March 1988 he died...before I could contact him to tell him of our upcoming wedding! LOL!!! I stayed home from school that day, my senior year in HS. Man, I loved me some Andy! Back in the 70s though,, those were the days! The Teen Beat magazines, Andy Gibb lunch boxes, etc! Love this reaction!!! Boogie down, dude!!!! Do more Andy!!!
Well damn!!......pretty sure I haven't heard this since??, I had the 45 when I was a kid. This was one of THE hits back then in the late 70s ! He checked all the boxes for success, and burned pretty bright for a brief period....sadly his demons got the best of him.
I fell off a ladder a couple of days ago, but my toes were sure flying! I loved the Gibb brothers longer than I've loved my husband! 😍 Thanks for this, haven't heard it in forever!
I was fortunate to see Andy at the Illinois State Fair in 1978. Gone way too soon. RIP. The Dee Gees, aka The Foo Fighters, did a great cover of this recently with Taylor Hawkins on vocals.
My older sister had his album and we danced to this as preteens! What an innocent time. Listened to all types of music. Radio play R&B, pop, rock, country all on the same channel.
One of those miraculous collabs between Andy, his BG brothers, and Albhy Galuten, all of whom were the cogs of the machine that created all of the BG’s smashes on the “Saturday Night Fever” soundtrack. Pure solid gold DNA! They have us the grooves of good feelings. All geniuses. Andy…gone too soon! The song never gets old, you can play it hundreds of times, try it. Thanks for doing this one J!
Ah yes. My favorite Andy Gibb song. The Gibbs always did backup vocals for each other. You'll see Andy on stage with them in the "You should be dancing" Bee Gees video. From the Saturday night Fever movie.
OMG I got the chills! And I remember almost every word after all these years. My pre-teenage heartthrob💓💓💓 Wasn't old enough to go out dancing but I had posters of him plastered all over my room and listened to this album for hours! Couldn't wait for the new Teen Beat and Tiger Beat magazines came out with more pictures of Andy🥰😍🤩🥰😍🤩
You, my Brutha, just made me day...hell, my life!🤣 I'm 57, and just watching you react to, and dance to this classic, made me soooooo freakin' happy! There's no way anyone can listen to any song from any Gibb and not smile and move their body!
Barry said "Maurice & Robin are twins but Andy was mine". 😭 Tragic. He dated Victoria Principal of the show Dallas. He was madly in love and heart broken when they broke up. 💔 He dropped deeper and deeper into cocaine. The drug weakened his heart even more. He died of a virus inflammation of his heart. Barry was CRUSHED.
1978. This was the #1 song. The Brothers Gibb had 5 of the top 10 songs for the entire year #1 Shadow Dancing, #2 Night Fever, #4 Staying Alive, #6 How Deep is Your Love, and #8 (Love is) Thicker than Water. The last featured Joe Walsh on guitar. The Bee Gees also wrote 3 other songs that were in the top 20 performed by others that year: #11 Grease by Frankie Valli, #14 Emotion by Samantha Sang, and #19 If I Can't Have You by Yvonne Elliman. They dominated the year!
Written by The Bee Gees and the late Andy Gibb. Backing vocals by The Bee Gees. Andy demonstrated that he could sing well like his brothers. 🤯 Andy was the youngest of them. Suggested next video: I Want to Be Your Everything. RIP Andy Gibb.
I haven't heard this song for more than 40 years but I started singing all the words . Thanks for unlocking those beautiful memories. JAMEL, you rock brother!!
I love seeing Jamel react because he takes in every bit of the song and comments at the perfect times. Shadow Dancing is the ultimate 70's disco love song because it's ultra dramatic and bad ass. I need my satin jacket and bell bottoms when this one's on. Every family gathering I dance and lip sync to this one and everyone is dancing by the end of it. (and laughing!)
Ahh back in the day, age 14, dancing and singing with friends, crushing on Andy! And put a beard on him, and he's Barry. Those two look more alike than the twins! Well, of course they're fraternal twins, but you know Barry and Andy were related. And we were all devastated and shocked when he passed. Continue to RIP Andy, Robin and Maurice!
Didn't realise until I started watching some reactors how big Andy Gibb was in the USA. He was well known in the UK, obviously with that name, but only had moderate success with his singles and never had a number one (two in USA) with only one song reaching the top 10! Just shows there's still some surprises left for us oldies who lived through this music.
His brothers actually wrote the music and because he was the younger brother they wanted to help him become a star also, and he was, he had the same musical DNA as his older brothers.

I just loved Andy...and how I cried in high school when we lost him.
I've always loved Disco music.
@Agnes Powers- facts!!!I was 20 and thought I was grown!!Ah,those were some magic times!!
You should know how many Disco hits were hits with US.
I remember Rod Stewart's do you think I'm sexy and the Stones' Miss You playing on R&B stations
Interesting fact: "Shadow Dancing" is the only song with all four Gibb brothers (Barry, Robin, Maurice and Andy) listed as the songwriters.
"Desire" is the only song with all four brothers singing on it......although not together. The Bee Gees recorded it about 18 months earlier, did not release it, and then Barry dubbed his voice, and Andy's voice, onto it to release for Andy.

Especially with him being the oldest brother and having all his brothers die young, that’s rough.
Yeah the musical DNA was definitely there! Good observation!
I saw Barry in an interview about a year or so ago. Barry said he would give up all the fame and fortune he had just to have all 3 of his brothers back.
Forever love..love..love this song..tq
Barry misses his brothers 😢 💔 terribly. Watch his interviews when he speaks of them. He ALWAYS breaks down.
What a shame we lost him so young! He was a talented guy and had that Brothers Gibb style. I'm so glad I got to see my handsome teen idol in concert in 1978!
I saw him that year too in Fresno CA. I loved him, still do!
@@kimpalko3391 I had third row seats and when he came to the edge of the stage and moved his hair I swore I felt his sweat hit me! What a night!😍
@B. Chan And think of all who tried to help him.
Andy was my first concert (and probably my first celebrity crush, although that could have been John Travolta), I was 8. My second concert was The Bee Gees. My mom loved them all too and took me and my bff.
His brothers really added to his music! I love hearing The Bee Gees in the background!!
I love the voices of the GIBB BROTHERS, VERY UNIQUE AND BRITISH UNDERTONE!❤
Those Gibb boys sure are talented. I was in love with Andy! He had a solo career but when your older brothers are The BeeGees of course they will help their baby brother. So much talent and tragedy in one family.
Absolutely! Yes, his brothers wrote all his music and it was a shared thing because he had the same vocal DNA they had and wanted to get his talent out there too! All those guys had great singing voices.
This wants me to hear Shawn Cassidy hardy boys
Sad thing is, plans were for Andy to join his brothers and make the bee gees a quartet but his death deprived us of that.
@@daviclar867Maurice & Robin only helped write 3 of Andy's songs & sang backing vocals on 1. Andy was very talented in his own right, but big brother Barry helped write many of Andy's songs (including his biggest hits) & sang backing vocals on most tracks.
The youngest brother of the BeeGee’s he was definitely BarryGibbs twin 💜💜👏🏼👏🏼 I had such a huge crush on him in the day he had the voice and looks 🤩🤩
Same here!
@@cherylreichardt SAME HERE 💓 & I HAD HIS ALBUM, R I P ANDY ❤🙏🏻🌹🌹 GONE TOO SOON 😔
@@lilyj9924 He was special. That's why we all still think of him.
I still get a lump in my throat when I watch Andy perform. His death was so tragic and heartbreaking.
Same here! Seeing him & all the promise he had to continue the success he had…then snuffed-out so quickly, REALLY breaks my heart.
I get a bit teary eyed EVERY TIME. It was like a punch in the gut when I heard on the news that he had passed. I was in shock. He was my first celebrity crush when I saw him on TV for the fist time when I was 8 years old. Andy will always have a special place in my heart.
Muito triste 😢
The only singer to have three number 1 songs in a year.
I am 59 years old. Andy Gibb, Shaun Cassidy and Rick Springfield were my heart throbs, poster on the wall. So nice to see the younger folks listening to the music of my time.......God I miss the late 70's and 80's
It was his record, but you know it's still a family effort.
His brothers wrote it,
and Barry sang background on it.
Great family effort!
It also went to #1.
Andy was like Barry’s twin, but born much later. I absolutely love him. He was such a lovely guy, so talented. He’d trained as a pilot before he passed. He’s survived and recovered. God rest his soul❤️

Another great artist! Can't go wrong with the Gibbs !
I cried when my brother’s friend sat on my “Shadow Dancing” record and broke it in half. He didn’t do it on purpose, but he laughed. I was only 8. So mean!!
Love Andy Gibb songs! He had duets with Marie Osmond, Olivia Newton-John.. He died too young!
His best duet was with Victoria Principal
R I P ANDY 🙏🏻❤🌹🌹
I like the performance of Grease he did with Frankie Valli and his Solid Gold performances
“I need that sweet sensation of living in your love” typical Barry lyric so deep
This is one Andy’s many solo songs, although he wrote it along with his Brothers.
Plus Barry sang backing & harmony vocals & co-produced it (as Gibb-Galuten-Richardson).
Barry pretty much wrote/co-wrote and sang background on all of
Andy’s hits.
Perfection... wasn't Andy magnificent. Jamel we adore you, your smile lights up any room. You are our oxygen. Another fabulous reaction, thank you Sir. xxxxxx
The Gibb brother's really blew up the music industry.
Man! Those Gibbs brothers wrote some great music and lyrics. Can't go wrong with these guys!
Yes, thats big brother Barry singing back up! It was a solo song for Andy that he and Barry wrote together💙🎶💙🎶
It's a great night when a song gets Jamel to start dancing! ❤🙂
I loved Andy with ever bit of my 8yr old heart. His days hosting Solid Gold proved he could sing any genre.
I just wrote the same thing. So much more was ahead for him. Still breaks my heart
Andy was amazing.. there was no auto tune back then an Mic was his voice...so iconic on Gibbs nobody in this life time could ever hit falsettos like them ever... people need start checking there sister out because shes a beast to
Andy Gibb was my first crush when I was 9. Still listening to him now and I’m 52. RIP Andy
I was just a kid when this song came out. I'm now 50. Still love it. RIP Andy. Love ❤ You!
The foo fighters just did a cover under the name Dee Gees. My kindergarten and college years have collided.
This dude was the mack daddy!! Got the finest girls..RIP Andy gone to soon
Love that song! Love anything by The Bee Gees and Andy. I grew up with that music!
Barry wrote Andy's first 5 songs, all hit #1 on the charts...Gibb brothers sang back up...Andy was planning to join the Bee Gees, after completing his current contract per interview with brothers, but passed away before that happened.

Rest easy Andy, we'll take it from here.
@JamelAkaJamel Andy Gibb was the baby brother. He was so talented. He had his own solo career this was his solo this was not done with the beegees as their band but I believe the brothers are on this one. He had many hits. Solo Career

You need to show the Midnight Special he did a couple of songs on there. Brandi Modrak XOXO means hugs and Kisses to you and your family RIP Andy Gibb
Back in the day, Andy Gibb had three number one hits - "I JUST WANT TO BE YOUR EVERYTHING", "(LOVE IS) THICKER THAN WATER" and "SHADOW DANCING".
His tracks "AN EVERLASTING LOVE", "DESIRE" and "(OUR LOVE) DON'T THROW IT ALL AWAY" scored in the top ten.
Sadly, his voice went forever quiet way too soon, at the age of 30.
All 6 of those songs were written or co-written by Barry, with help from his brothers on just 2 of them.🎼
Grew up in the Andy era.. miss him.. Died of a broken heart
Love me some Andy Gibb!!! Was IN LOVE WITH HIM!!! Had posters, all his albums oh my what a sad day when he died!!! I was heartbroken for a LONG TIME! TFS!👍🏻🐶🐶💕🙏🏻
I was 9! Seriously, 1978 (and part of 1979) was the time of The Bee Gees and Andy Gibb. They were playing on all the pop and R&B stations, they were on TV.

I have their albums now, but as a kid, I didn't need them; their songs were played so often for almost 2 years that I knew all the words.
Andy was a force of his own. The Bee Gees supported their brother.
I was always a new kid at a new school. I was always so worried about being accepted or bullied... I would practice little dances to these songs (especially this one lol) as if they'd be like, "we have a new student, and she will be doing her interpretive dance to Andy Gibb" and they'd all love me hahaa
Never panned out🤣😂
Samantha Sang's "Emotion" is also backed the Brothers Gibb
written by the BeeGees :)
Chain Reaction by Diana Ross also, big hit in Europe, criminally underrated in this part of the world.
I've loved Andy since I was a pre teen in '78! And i took a lot of teasing about it too, lol. He had his own solo career supported by his famous brothers of course. He made my heart go pitter patter. Gone too soon at 30 yrs old.

A few years ago I was living in Woodland Hills and found out Andy had lived off Winnetka / 101 back in the 80s.
Gone too soon
We were all in love with Andy Gibb in 1977/78. Posters hanging on the wall. Still got all his vinyl albums
My first album was Flowing Rivers, and yes I still have it - and the t-shirt.
If you're starting to jump into Andy's work, I reccomend Everlasting Love.
I’m so obsessed with the Bee Gees and I freaking love Andy Gibb
The Bee Gees formed their group when Andy was born, so Andy was not apart of the Bee Gees because he was so much younger. Then when he was older he just went in a soloist direction.

Your puppers are too cute
We were wearing gouchos with our fry boots dancing to this song in 1978 Bell bottoms had passed. We also wore dress pants and silk shirts
This and (Love Is) Thicker Than Water are my two most favorite Andy Gibb tunes.
> (Love Is) Thicker Than Water
Yeah! Talk about smooooth; that song's top-notch for sure.
I was fortunate to see Andy at the Illinois State Fair in 1978. Gone way too soon. RIP. The Dee Gees, aka The Foo Fighters, did a great cover of this recently with Taylor Hawkins on vocals.
Yvonne Elliman, If I can't have you.. was another one they worked closely with
I remember roller skating to this song as a kid when it came out. One of my favorites of his, too bad he died so young.
I was a huge Andy Gibb fan back in the day. Didn’t recognize what a killer groove this song had.
Love this song! Sad that he left us so soon. Gotta do our love don’t throw it all away…Jamel will be groovin’
Andy Gibb was gorgeous & very talented as much as his brothers. Loved this song my fav is I just want to be your everything - so beautiful 💜
My older sister had his album and we danced to this as preteens! What an innocent time. Listened to all types of music. Radio play R&B, pop, rock, country all on the same channel.
I love Andy. Everlasting love is another great one
Not only can we hear the unmistakable Bee Gees sound/voice. But the production is so the Bee Gees..you can hear his brothers all over it!!
I was waiting for your face when the brothers came in as back up!! Love it!! You know Andy, Maurice and Robin are all singing in Heaven!!❤️
One of those miraculous collabs between Andy, his BG brothers, and Albhy Galuten, all of whom were the cogs of the machine that created all of the BG’s smashes on the “Saturday Night Fever” soundtrack.

The Brothers Gibb had 5 of the top 10 songs for the entire year #1 Shadow Dancing, #2 Night Fever, #4 Staying Alive, #6 How Deep is Your Love, and #8 (Love is) Thicker than Water. The last featured Joe Walsh on guitar. The Bee Gees also wrote 3 other songs that were in the top 20 performed by others that year: #11 Grease by Frankie Valli, #14 Emotion by Samantha Sang, and #19 If I Can't Have You by Yvonne Elliman. They dominated the year!
I feel like I could do a reaction video watching Jamel dance because he's so entertaining watching somebody else!
What a beautiful memories!!!
Brothers giving that harmony
Written by The Bee Gees and the late Andy Gibb. Backing vocals by The Bee Gees.
Andy demonstrated that he could sing well like his brothers. 🤯
Andy was the youngest of them.
Suggested next video: I Want to Be Your Everything.
RIP Andy Gibb.
And ‘Everlasting Love’ is a total classic too by Andy Gibb.
I loved your reaction when you heard the Bee Gees..priceless
I got me a big grin on my face watching Jamel get his groove on. 😁
I haven't heard this song for more than 40 years but I started singing all the words . Thanks for unlocking those beautiful memories. JAMEL, you rock brother!!
Jamal your smile, moves your whole demeanor is infectious.Like you radiate peace and happiness it's a precious gift!Very cool!God bless your heart!
The Brothers Gibb were very supportive if younger brother Andy's career and they all pitched in on this one. Andy was quite the teenage heartthrob.
It doesn't hurt to have the Bee Gees backing you up!! R.I.P.- Andy, Maurice, and Robin! You are ALL missed!!
So agree this song is so awesome with his brothers backing him up

He forgot Barry
Vehicle by Ides of March. It will cause some shoulder-shaking.
YES!!! Amazing tune
I had the biggest crush on Andy ❤️
Miss Andy! He would have definitely been a star. U seen how he did that little shoulder dip lol
I love seeing Jamel react because he takes in every bit of the song and comments at the perfect times. Shadow Dancing is the ultimate 70's disco love song because it's ultra dramatic and bad ass. I need my satin jacket and bell bottoms when this one's on. Every family gathering I dance and lip sync to this one and everyone is dancing by the end of it. (and laughing!)
I love 💞 Andy Gibb in my opinion he went home to soon rip
Love that Barry help him and was his back up dinner
Number #1 song of 1978,and yes we were dancing our butts off!
Ahh back in the day, age 14, dancing and singing with friends, crushing on Andy! And put a beard on him, and he's Barry. Those two look more alike than the twins! Well, of course they're fraternal twins, but you know Barry and Andy were related. And we were all devastated and shocked when he passed. Continue to RIP Andy, Robin and Maurice!
OMG! Using other halves tablet. Had a crazy crush on Andy!!!! Thanks for reminding me of my younger days!! JoAnn Sigby
Omg I had the biggest crush on him! I was devastated when he died.
Me too!
This is the song. I had such a crush on Andy he definitely was a teen heart throbe back In the day. RIP Andy thank you for your gift of music.
Didn't realise until I started watching some reactors how big Andy Gibb was in the USA. He was well known in the UK, obviously with that name, but only had moderate success with his singles and never had a number one (two in USA) with only one song reaching the top 10! Just shows there's still some surprises left for us oldies who lived through this music.
You were right, my brother, we were some dancing dudes. All the Bee Gees music was so amazing and all the girls were there.
Andy would be 64 on March 5th! Loved and Missed💔
Andy Gibb was a solo artist. He was never billed as "with the Bee Gees."
His brothers actually wrote the music and because he was the younger brother they wanted to help him become a star also, and he was, he had the same musical DNA as his older brothers.
Andy had started to join the group full time when he died
Very true, but you should understand why he was as big as he was
