I always wonder how many people are listening to a Bee Gees song at any given moment all over the world. Wouldn't that be something if we could hover above the earth and listen. I bet the entire universe would be veiled with these angels' voices.
The song "Forever Today" was written by Robin and Alistair it is beautiful. Both songs sound like something Robin would write. Miss his talent RIP sweet Robin.
Chad,. This one hits you in the gut. 💔💔. Beautiful song 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶💕💕💕💕. I just realized that. The year mo died,. And by Christmas close to mo,s &. Robins birthday 💐💐💐. 😢😢
Such a beautiful song sung to perfection by Robin & Alistair. I wonder how painful it was for Robin to sing this so soon after his beloved Maurice had passed away. The two voices blend so beautifully with great emotion and I love how Robin clenched his fists to his chest, something that he always did in the old days. Thank you Chad for remembering Robin in this way this weekend. Must go now, my eyes are leaking x
I love that you zeroed in on the clenched fist!😉 Robin had those certain signature moves when he sang, huh!? Sometimes he looked like he was conducting an invisible orchestra, and of course his hand to his ear thing, before they had earbuds!😜 I missed that in their later performances. As he got older Robin wasn't as demonstrative on stage. But when he was young he could be a real live-wire at their concerts! He was as interesting and fun to watch as to listen to!!😉😜
@@gloriamaryhaywood2217 I loved the young Robin's epic dance moves and I agree that he was just as much fun to watch as he was to listen to. I never felt that he found it awkward not to have an instrument to play. He just got so lost in the music and lyrics. I can't even stand in a queue without having something in my hands to fiddle with, usually keys or my mobile 🙄
@@miriamkirk7293 Robin was a beautiful hot mess!😁 LOL. A very long-term follower of the brothers once stated under a video of theirs, that Robin was "window-shopping" again!😉 Because Robin had developed a habit of walking around behind Barry and pacing back-and-forth across the stage until it was his time for his part of the song! Or sometimes he would 'hide' behind Barry and suddenly jump out to the mic when it was his turn! (This was later on though.) And Oh Gawd! Robins dancing was Epic!!Haha! Robin couldn't dance or carry a beat to save his sweet life, BUT that didn't Stop Robin from doing his thang!😜 Sometimes when I'm feeling down or got a case of the 'Blues', I scroll on over to a few of Robins epic dance move videos and before I know it I'm Laughing Out Loud for sure!!😁😉 and I've always loved Robins mischievous little smile! (I wonder if he ever had an idea of how much joy he brought to Sooo many of us??)
I think I just melted into my chair. Two beautiful voices. Still give the edge to RHG. So vulnerable and soulful. When he sings you BELIEVE every word he says.. Robin was always willing to share the stage and promote new talent. He did say though, commenting on new artists, that music should not be a beauty contest and that songwriting was SO very important. No good songwriters, nothing good to sing.
Alistair Griffin just released new cd “Forever Today. He wrote this song with Robin Gibb in 2005. It is beautifully written and sung. Deserves to b heard. Also on cd r covers of Robin’s most famous songs. All r beautifully arranged and sung.
O my goodness this song is indeed from "Still Waters by the Bee Gees", but this version give me chills. Robin is performing this 11 months after Mo's passing away. Unbeliveble Wonderful it brings tears in my eye's. RIP dear Robin and thanks Chad for remembering Robin this way 🥀
Robin is is the world's best singer fantastic Robin u r grate loss wish u were here with us. The other singer is good but u leave everyone standing u make a song come a live the way u come in is fantastic Robin 💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔
La voz de Robin Gibb, era única y especial. Toda su música, incluido en solitario, éxito asegurado. Tenía muchos proyectos a nivel musical. Pero su enfermedad pudo con el. Robin, nunca te olvidaremos. Siempre con nosotros. El 20 de mayo, se cumplió 10 años de su fallecimiento. Esta canción que acabamos de escuchar, es todo un homenaje. Siempre Robin Gibb. EXTRAORDINARIA CANCIÓN. UNA DE MIS FAVORITAS DE BEEGEES.
The brothers did this one on the "Still Waters" album. It is amazingly beautiful & an all-time favorite. Such a beautiful song. Chad did a reaction to that version one year ago.
It was so sad that we will never hear from the 3 brothers singing in unison again but we do have all the beautiful song up until Mo's death. After Mo's death Robin threw himself into other projects, this including mentoring Alistair Griffin, Alistair toured with Robin as well. Robin was a big proponent of new talented young people being recognized and given a chance. Alistair has released this month "Forever Today" written in 2005 (2 yrs after Mo's death) by Robin and Alistair in honor of his mentor. I felt Robin was thinking of Mo when writing this song. Sadly he was not part of the recording but you can feel Robin in it. Thank you Chad for dedicating this weekend to Robin
And, Chad, Alistair just released a tribute album for Robin called "Forever Today". I've heard a few snippets from it when Alistair was interviewed about it recently and it sounds really wonderful!
We adore robin his voice gives you chills, this beautiful, thank you our rob for leaving this beauty, this Ur best wow, our beautiful rob from our town of Manchester and living near you a real honour n privilege, so funny so great fab as you're mo. N twins the best ever born. Bless you dear local lad. Thank you. N we treasure the time U bounded down our street s n the photos we got n U signed for us n now forever ❤❤❤❤🙏😇🙏😢🌟🌟🌟👍🌟🌟👍🌟🌟
Beautiful song their voices blends so well but God Robin's voice just takes me to another place I love both versions both beautiful I also got the tribute album that Alistair has released just need to listen to it
This was a beautiful tribute to Robin on the 10th anniversary of his death. You did a great job putting the two versions together. I personally LOVED both. Thank you Chad ❤️
Oh, Chad. I'm crying as I type these words and goosebumps all over. Two different performances of this truly amazing song! Thank you for reacting to both!
Such a beautiful song. Robin's voice is so good what can I say! Alistair's voice is great as well. I'm a little bias toward Robin of course. Love this!! Thank you Chad!
Its nice to hear Robin without the brothers on occasion and this was a very nice version, but I prefer the Bee Gees version too. Thanks for featuring Robin this weekend.
Patty-I know that the brothers' voices are unbelievable, but this version is my favorite. I love Robin's solos. Gives me chills and a warm feeling at the same time.
Hey, Chad! Thanks for reacting to these two versions of one of my favorite Bee Gees songs. They are really terrific and a nice tribute to Robin! I am wearing out (if that's possible with a CD) the Still Waters album. I have to have it on in the car--and I replay this song when it comes up.
Robin's voice is so unique, I know it immediately when I hear it, love it.❤ Alistair and Robin's voices blend so beautifully, sounds like angels singing. 🎶🎵🎶
Lindíssima música! A voz de Robin me encanta demais! Amo demais suas músicas! Tenho certeza que esse jovem cantor, nunca esquecerá esse momento com Robin, jovem muito talentoso também. Muito obrigada chad, por nos proporcionar momentos de grandes emoções. Amooooooo!!!❤❤❤❤👋👋👋👋👋🇧🇷
We thank you so much for this Chad! One of my favorites. Gorgeous. Oh Robin I miss you so much. This gives me chills so amazing! Robins voice will live on forever! Those voices. Alistair’s voice blends well with Robin. Love this!!! I love the way Robin clenched his chest with so much emotion! We love you Chad!
Beautiful song. I personaly prefer this version to the one on Still Waters. Maybe because Robin's voice is soooo soulful here. Allistair did a very great job, too. He himself once said, that he was influenced by Robin very much, concerning singing and songwriting. And that he was blessed that Robin mentored him. I think both versions here are the same.In the live performance they lipsinced (right word???) to the original studio recording. But it was nice seeing them both performing. This song seems to be perfection to me.❤️
This song is beautiful just love Robin's voice ...alistair has just released a song called forever today that he and. robin wrote yrs ago its really lovely great reactions 😄
❤Thank you for this amazingly emotional song. Everything is right when Robin sings. It speaks volumes of what Robin thought of young Alistair by taking him under his wing. I'm sure Robin is smiling on his student. You're missed Robin.....Oh, that voice and all that you meant to so many...tears 😢
Thank you for getting to this. I've been waiting a long time for it but Robin Gibb is worth it. To me this version is much better than the original on Still Waters. And what can we say about Alistair Griffen, he sings from his toes. So beautiful. The studio version is on my play list. Thank you Thank you thank you.
This is an incredibly beautiful song and shows what talent true singers have (the ones who never used auto tune). This song sounds the same in live as it did in the studio.
@@natashyahendrix2 I just walked in the door about 20 minutes ago. I spent the week with my Mom and Dad. I am tired and my back hurts, but okay. Back to work tomorrow. She is about the same, but got to be back at the farm for the week. She's back with my sister now, so she can get back to her PT. Thank you for asking. How are you?
@@janicetrimmell6897 I'm doing well. As of last week, I'm back in the office Mondays and Tuesdays. It was so weird being back but it was OK. You a good daughter. Get some rest and have a good week.
Chad, I love this song performed by Robin Gibb and his student! I'm glad for your reaction today to the two interpretations! I also liked your interaction with the woman you love! Nice reaction!🤗
When that Christmas video was first shown on RUclips, a long time fan of the Brothers stated that she wondered if that young man, Alistair, truly knew Who he was so honored to be singing with?? I think they both sounded so, so Good! Their voices blended and complimented each others voice. I have always preferred this version to The Bee Gees version with Barry singing lead. Yes, Barry sounded fine, but he used that light breathy voice and it didn't carry the emotional impact that this version does. Count on Robin to bring in the "feelings" to a song. His vocal changed a pretty song into a deep emotionally moving song. Have watched the Xmas version many times but it's been a while since I viewed it. Thanks for choosing this beautiful song, Chad!💜
Beautiful song Chad for this occasion. Robin's voice makes this song exquisite and Alistair's blends in with his very well. Loved your reaction on the second one where you sat still and let the music wash over you like a gentle wave. I agree with the others that this is a rare occasion when this version is better than the original.
I think Robin has the best vocals in the world 🌎 incredible incredible he leaves everyone standing Robin might be gon the this man's music lives on for ever what a singer fantastic Robin
Time is passing by like a rocket. 10 years without Robin, but his voice still lives with so many tracks/videos like an eternal flame. Only thing I have to say about this recording is yes it's very good, but I'm not one of those, prefering it more than the original. And that's my opinion about every Bee Gees song, whoever sang it someday, somehow, somewhere.
Allistair Griffin has so much talent. His new tribute album is just superb but his own stuff is equally good. Such a great voice. I do believe that they were lip sinking the same recorded track in both videos though. Still, a wonderful song sung by two very talented people.
Oh Chad, you did it again, what a wonderful DOUBLE reaction. And yes, Robin kills the song, I don't want to offend anybody here, just my preference, but this version even without his brothers, to me is much more touching than the original, as you said, Rob opens his mouth and we all get caught on his otherworldly voice. Now that you said even when Rob does not have the main part of the song he's able to give us chills over and over with his voice, great if you check 'First of May' with G4, you decide if it's worth for a reaction or just for yourself, but it's incredibly stunning, Rob on his 60s I think, singing with 4 very young men, with very powerful voices, and when he opens his mouth, My Lord!!! Please listen to that one and let me know 😊 and if you react to it I'm not going to be upset 😃
I much prefer this version. The emotion he puts into it is enough to make you cry. Same with "First of May". Both good but just totally different versions.
@@susieq9801 that's the whole thing about Robin. He just brings the emotion and makes you feel every word he sings. He said he sings with his heart and that's what always made him so special to all of us. He once said he liked the sound of his voice so he really wasn't up for the falcetto. Barry said he thought Robin didn't really find his voice until the train accident where he and his 1st wife before they married nearly were killed. I'm just so glad he found it. It's beautiful no matter what he sings. We were so lucky to have had him for the time we did.
@@christinestornable1816 - I think he found his voice, physically at least, way before Hither Green. Massachusetts was #1 before that. Because of that hit he and Molly were able to afford a first class coach back from Hastings where they were visiting her parents. All those killed were in 2nd class coaches. Barry did say though that the crash brought out the pathos in Robin's beautiful lyrics. It sure did change him from bring very outgoing to often being somber and moody. It was a shame that he never received treatment for his PTSD. It just wasn't done in those days. The emotion in his singing could bring a tear to a glass eye. His voice in the Bee Gees was the first one I heard back in 1967 when in my teens and I was hooked.
This is a lovely version of this as Robin sounds gorgeous. Alistair was my favourite in Fame Academy that year but he came second. It might just be me but that second version looks mimed to me and the same as the video version.
This was my first time hearing this live version of the song and my second or third time hearing this studio version of it. I remember not having a huge reaction to it and thinking that I much preferred the original “Still Waters” version of it because that version had all three Bee Gees singing it. That was quite awhile ago because I decided to only listen to the “Still Waters” version because I thought it was so much better than this version. But, when I was just listening to it in this video, I was in awe of how absolutely beautiful it was! I don't know what my problem was when I listened to it before! I think that Alistair Griffin sounds really good, but Robin's voice is just truly gorgeous and what really grabs me in the song! You're absolutely right! It doesn’t matter what Robin is doing in a song. As soon as he opens his mouth (I forget what you said after that, but...), pure beauty pours out of it! Now, I need to listen to the “Still Waters” version, even though I've listened to it lots of times before and I already know I love it, since I just listened to this version, and see which one I think I like better now. Although, right now, I think I could listen to this version over and over again. Great reaction, by the way!
In 2003 before Fame academy started ( a must see intelligent talent show), Robin undertook previously contracted appearances to promote Magnet, his new Solo Album, He was asked to be a mentor on Fame academy and he jumped at the chance because Contestants had to be able to sing, play an instrument, compose their own songs.Robin felt this was ideal as he had said often talent shows shouldn't be "beauty competitions": If you were lucky enough to get in, you lived in the academy for the duration of the show. Mentors came in and out throughout the week and the live show was on a Friday night where one was voted off by the public. Friday night's show was live and the mentors then became the judging panel. Robin was criticized for being too nice when it came to critiquing but he qualified this by saying young talent should be nurtured and given positive feedback rather than bruise them before they really blossom. Anyways the panel already had nasty Richard who held nothing back and Robin would get visibly uncomfortable. Robin was mentoring Alistair and although he didn't win, Alistair has since said he learned an awful lot from Robin and continued to do so after Fame academy ended. Two years later they were writing songs together and remained friends. Robin spent the rest of 2003 promoting his new solo album, Magnet from which the single Please came. He started travelling and performing from as early as one month after Mos passed, just breaking for Fame academy. Work is how Robin dealt with his gut wrenching grief which I felt he never recovered from......
@@karis_H.2000 You're welcome. Robin had a finger in many pies here in the UK and was truly loved. The live version of Robin and Alistair was actually sang during the final of Fame Academy when each finalist sang with a celebrity, It seemed only natural that Robin sang with Alistair as he was his mentor. I remember watching the final at the time and crying through this song as it was going to be the first Christmas without Mo and they loved getting together .. .How devastated Robin must have felt - lonely too I'm guessing, without his twin. x
@@paulakivelehan.beegeesme4076 WOW. Thank you for posting all of this info! OMyGosh, I just love learning background info on Robin. (I have Absolute Adoration and Respect for Robin.)
Yes, what a beautiful surprise to check back in and see if round 2 of this weekend's marathon was up. Alistair was runner up in the Fame Academy singing contest and Robin loved his voice so much he wanted to work with him. I love the version with Wanya Morris (Boys II Men) and Lance Bass with Robin too. The music video of that version is online too. As Robin would say....triumph deluxe!
It's amazing to hear Robin sing this song when he was not in good health at the time and still sounds better then Alistair. Don't get me wrong here, Alistair can sing, for sure. I just feel he's being outclassed here. Just like Chad, I must admit I like the original more, but these versions are very enjoyable as well. Robin, what a special human being, what a special voice, what an absolute joy to see and hear him perform. He's missed still to this day, and will be long into the future.
@@gingerduran1592 I love these versions. Robin's voice is just gorgeous, but I too am drawn to the studio version more. Partly it's the brotherly harmony, and then there is the key change from heaven. Also, Barry sounds very intimate. I guess I just love song no matter how it is done.
love this video You should out Grief never grows old with Robin Gibb and Russell Watson. Grief Never Grows Old" is a song written by Mike Read and recorded by the music supergroup One World Project in 2005 to raise money for relief of the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami in Asia. It was released on 24 January 2005 and reached a peak position of number 4 in the UK Singles Chart. you will find it on youtube

I always wonder how many people are listening to a Bee Gees song at any given moment all over the world. Wouldn't that be something if we could hover above the earth and listen. I bet the entire universe would be veiled with these angels' voices.
Omg ! What a Beautiful song from Robin and Allistar.
Robin was a magician.He killed it,and brought it to life,at the same time.Magic.😊
Beautiful. Robin's voice is just lovely. Thank you for celebrating his life with a marathon devoted to him.
Wonder if Alister realized how lucky he was to share the stage with Robin.....and be mentored by this great legend......
Oh, how I loved Robin! I loved everything about him! Especially his voice....and he was a darned sexy man!!❤❤❤
The song "Forever Today" was written by Robin and Alistair it is beautiful. Both songs sound like something Robin would write. Miss his talent RIP sweet Robin.
Rest In Paradise Robin Hugh Gibb
Chad,. This one hits you in the gut. 💔💔. Beautiful song 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶💕💕💕💕. I just realized that. The year mo died,. And by Christmas close to mo,s &. Robins birthday 💐💐💐. 😢😢

No one does emotion like Robin.

Beautiful song Chad for this occasion. Robin's voice makes this song exquisite and Alistair's blends in with his very well. Loved your reaction on the second one where you sat still and let the music wash over you like a gentle wave.
I agree with the others that this is a rare occasion when this version is better than the original.
Robin puts all his feelings into his songs .beautiful .him and his music also great with alistair hes a lovely voice ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Just love this Robins voice it just hits u. U just have to listen to him love to know who is singing about Rip 🙏 Robin 💔💔💔💔
I think Robin has the best vocals in the world 🌎 incredible incredible he leaves everyone standing Robin might be gon the this man's music lives on for ever what a singer fantastic Robin
Thank you so much for this Chad I loved it💖💖
Good one Chad!!👏👏👏👏👏👏😍😍
Time is passing by like a rocket. 10 years without Robin, but his voice still lives with so many tracks/videos like an eternal flame. Only thing I have to say about this recording is yes it's very good, but I'm not one of those, prefering it more than the original. And that's my opinion about every Bee Gees song, whoever sang it someday, somehow, somewhere.
Ohjhhhjjj❤ yo también sentí como vos el escalofrío en todo mi ser!!!!! Robin, sólo él puede lograr tanto en el alma!! Graaaaacias!
Allistair Griffin has so much talent. His new tribute album is just superb but his own stuff is equally good. Such a great voice. I do believe that they were lip sinking the same recorded track in both videos though. Still, a wonderful song sung by two very talented people.
Oh Chad, you did it again, what a wonderful DOUBLE reaction. And yes, Robin kills the song, I don't want to offend anybody here, just my preference, but this version even without his brothers, to me is much more touching than the original, as you said, Rob opens his mouth and we all get caught on his otherworldly voice. Now that you said even when Rob does not have the main part of the song he's able to give us chills over and over with his voice, great if you check 'First of May' with G4, you decide if it's worth for a reaction or just for yourself, but it's incredibly stunning, Rob on his 60s I think, singing with 4 very young men, with very powerful voices, and when he opens his mouth, My Lord!!! Please listen to that one and let me know 😊 and if you react to it I'm not going to be upset 😃
I much prefer this version. The emotion he puts into it is enough to make you cry. Same with "First of May". Both good but just totally different versions.
Me, too, girls!
@@susieq9801 that's the whole thing about Robin. He just brings the emotion and makes you feel every word he sings. He said he sings with his heart and that's what always made him so special to all of us. He once said he liked the sound of his voice so he really wasn't up for the falcetto. Barry said he thought Robin didn't really find his voice until the train accident where he and his 1st wife before they married nearly were killed. I'm just so glad he found it. It's beautiful no matter what he sings. We were so lucky to have had him for the time we did.
@@christinestornable1816 - I think he found his voice, physically at least, way before Hither Green. Massachusetts was #1 before that. Because of that hit he and Molly were able to afford a first class coach back from Hastings where they were visiting her parents. All those killed were in 2nd class coaches.
Barry did say though that the crash brought out the pathos in Robin's beautiful lyrics. It sure did change him from bring very outgoing to often being somber and moody. It was a shame that he never received treatment for his PTSD. It just wasn't done in those days.
The emotion in his singing could bring a tear to a glass eye. His voice in the Bee Gees was the first one I heard back in 1967 when in my teens and I was hooked.
❤❤❤just so unbelievably beautiful. Love Nobody can top Robin ❤❤❤
This is a lovely version of this as Robin sounds gorgeous. Alistair was my favourite in Fame Academy that year but he came second. It might just be me but that second version looks mimed to me and the same as the video version.
This was my first time hearing this live version of the song and my second or third time hearing this studio version of it. I remember not having a huge reaction to it and thinking that I much preferred the original “Still Waters” version of it because that version had all three Bee Gees singing it. That was quite awhile ago because I decided to only listen to the “Still Waters” version because I thought it was so much better than this version. But, when I was just listening to it in this video, I was in awe of how absolutely beautiful it was! I don't know what my problem was when I listened to it before! I think that Alistair Griffin sounds really good, but Robin's voice is just truly gorgeous and what really grabs me in the song! You're absolutely right! It doesn’t matter what Robin is doing in a song. As soon as he opens his mouth (I forget what you said after that, but...), pure beauty pours out of it! Now, I need to listen to the “Still Waters” version, even though I've listened to it lots of times before and I already know I love it, since I just listened to this version, and see which one I think I like better now. Although, right now, I think I could listen to this version over and over again. Great reaction, by the way!
In 2003 before Fame academy started ( a must see intelligent talent show), Robin undertook previously contracted appearances to promote Magnet, his new Solo Album, He was asked to be a mentor on Fame academy and he jumped at the chance because Contestants had to be able to sing, play an instrument, compose their own songs.Robin felt this was ideal as he had said often talent shows shouldn't be "beauty competitions": If you were lucky enough to get in, you lived in the academy for the duration of the show. Mentors came in and out throughout the week and the live show was on a Friday night where one was voted off by the public. Friday night's show was live and the mentors then became the judging panel. Robin was criticized for being too nice when it came to critiquing but he qualified this by saying young talent should be nurtured and given positive feedback rather than bruise them before they really blossom. Anyways the panel already had nasty Richard who held nothing back and Robin would get visibly uncomfortable. Robin was mentoring Alistair and although he didn't win, Alistair has since said he learned an awful lot from Robin and continued to do so after Fame academy ended. Two years later they were writing songs together and remained friends.
Robin spent the rest of 2003 promoting his new solo album, Magnet from which the single Please came. He started travelling and performing from as early as one month after Mos passed, just breaking for Fame academy. Work is how Robin dealt with his gut wrenching grief which I felt he never recovered from......
@@paulakivelehan.beegeesme4076 Wow! Interesting! I didn’t know about Fame Academy! So interesting! Thanks for telling me all of this!
@@karis_H.2000 You're welcome. Robin had a finger in many pies here in the UK and was truly loved. The live version of Robin and Alistair was actually sang during the final of Fame Academy when each finalist sang with a celebrity, It seemed only natural that Robin sang with Alistair as he was his mentor. I remember watching the final at the time and crying through this song as it was going to be the first Christmas without Mo and they loved getting together .. .How devastated Robin must have felt - lonely too I'm guessing, without his twin. x
@@paulakivelehan.beegeesme4076 Thank you for this wonderful background info!
@@paulakivelehan.beegeesme4076 WOW. Thank you for posting all of this info! OMyGosh, I just love learning background info on Robin.
(I have Absolute Adoration and Respect for Robin.)
So glad robin chose alistair from the singers as hes brill love his voice and deserveda chance ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Such a beautiful and heartfelt, emotional song🥳
Yes Robin is so good
Yes, what a beautiful surprise to check back in and see if round 2 of this weekend's marathon was up. Alistair was runner up in the Fame Academy singing contest and Robin loved his voice so much he wanted to work with him. I love the version with Wanya Morris (Boys II Men) and Lance Bass with Robin too. The music video of that version is online too. As Robin would say....triumph deluxe!
Beautiful. So used to hearing that accent through the whole song. But this was gorgeous. Doesn’t Barry usually sing the lead when it’s all three?
It's amazing to hear Robin sing this song when he was not in good health at the time and still sounds better then Alistair. Don't get me wrong here, Alistair can sing, for sure. I just feel he's being outclassed here. Just like Chad, I must admit I like the original more, but these versions are very enjoyable as well. Robin, what a special human being, what a special voice, what an absolute joy to see and hear him perform. He's missed still to this day, and will be long into the future.
Agree on all points!
@@gingerduran1592 I love these versions. Robin's voice is just gorgeous, but I too am drawn to the studio version more. Partly it's the brotherly harmony, and then there is the key change from heaven. Also, Barry sounds very intimate. I guess I just love song no matter how it is done.
love this video You should out Grief never grows old with Robin Gibb and Russell Watson.
Grief Never Grows Old" is a song written by Mike Read and recorded by the music supergroup One World Project in 2005 to raise money for relief of the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami in Asia. It was released on 24 January 2005 and reached a peak position of number 4 in the UK Singles Chart.
you will find it on youtube
So much better than on the album 👏
Chad, Robin and Maurice birthdays were Dec. 22, 1949 Robin passed away May 20, 2012. Maurice passed away 2003. 😢
👌👏👏
Love it
Wonderful song 💓
When Robin sings some songs like this I wonder if he thinking of someone it seems so I would love to no who 😏💔
I like Robin and Alistair's version of this better than still waters version. I guess im partial to Robin's voice over Barry's. Lol
Chad, Amo 🎶
I almost like this better than the original
Juliet
Chad…in all honestly, just your option…who’s voice do you prefer..Barry. Robin. Mo.
Robin and Robin only!
