Sir Barry Gibb was male perfection. He could of had all the women but has been married to the same woman for over 50 years. When this song was recorded he had been married for 8 or 9 years.
Yep and that's also good as he decided not to be a male whore.
Although she was his second marriage, but yes he’s been with his wife over 5 decades and still in love with one another still today ❤
@@rhondabeaulieu4633 with the 1st one he and she were very young. It was obviously not meant to be. They were married when they were still in Australia Barry was only 19. I really dont think he should be critised for it.
@@rhondabeaulieu4633 Barry was with Maureen for only 5 months before leaving Australia, so not much of a marriage.
They’re brothers. Many of these songs come from the movie Saturday Night Live. If you can find that movie, try to watch it.
In general there are six main vocal ranges: soprano, mezzo-soprano, alto, tenor, baritone, and bass. In this composition, the Bee Gees are using what is known as falsetto singing to make this sound and hit these notes that their chest voice, or normal full voice, wouldn't allow them to do. In between those two styles you have the head voice which is sort of a mixture of both. Typically a falsetto tends to be weak, thin and sometimes airy. Barry Gibb probably has one of the best and most powerful sounding falsetto voices.
Ahhhh I didn’t know it was six! That is insane !!!
I believe there are 7 ranges, the extra is one is known as the "Dimash" range, lol............
Really though, if you don't know who the amazing Dimash is I recommend you bless your ears with his vocals, he can sing equally as well in the "bass" range as he can in the "counter-tenor" range. He is able to cover 7 Octaves which, I think, is pretty impressive. He has performed the song known as The "Diva Song" from the movie "The 5th Element'", which is a song known to not be humanly possible to sing because of how the song was devised in the first place but Dimash shows how a singer can. Below is a link to a video of him performing the "Diva Dance" song,
-["Dive Dance" in Bastau Concert 2017]: ruclips.net/video/o5zMupUOgQo/видео.html
Barry is definitely a counter-tenor
@Susan Hunter NO. ? Sorry to hear that. Who's your favorite singer ?
@Susan Hunter It’s a shame so many people associate the BeeGees with disco. In their vast catalog of music, the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack is barely a blip. The first song I remember hearing by them-when I was a wee tot in the late 70s-was “How Can You Mend a Broken Heart”. It’s been a love story ever since. ❤😊
They are brothers.. and the best harmony group to ever exist in my opinion..
I agree
Exactly
Along with Crosby, Stills and Nash and the Eagles.
Idk about the best….. but yes they are great. I’d have to put the Andrew Sisters right up there at the top in terms of best harmonies too. Hard to compare because they were very different types of music.
I’m so glad to see reactors go back and give these older performers so much respect! Love it!!

Yes, women everywhere were swooning over Barry but no, he was not "knocking 'em down" as you said. He & his wife, Linda have been happily (& faithfully) married since Sept. 1, 1970. They got married on Barry's 24th birthday & eventually had 5 kids together. He credits Linda for helping him through the pressures of his early career, pulled him out of deep grief/depression over his brothers' deaths, & for pushing him to keep making music after he lost his lifelong musical partners. Linda deserves credit for keeping their music alive & still captivating new audiences for years to come...
Also, I read Linda kept Barry free of drugs… his brothers had addiction problems… Linda would flush any drugs down the drain… she kept him on the straight and narrow… he was blessed with a wonderful wife…
They don't always sing in falsetto....you have only begun the Bee Gees journey, they have written over 2000 songs!
"Jive Talking" Look into the inspiration for that one
The one in the middle ,Barry, my personal favorite,has been married 51 years to the same women. This is my favorite group. 3 brothers . Harmonizing beautifully. They wrote their own songs. And wrote for others too.
I feel sorry for young people. I lived through this time, and literally every week from 1976 to about 1988 there was another smash hit. It was crazy. We listened to Kasey Kasem and each week there was a new song we 'had to buy the 45'. I'm so lucky.
All three were great by themselves, but together,....pure magic!! No autotune, just talent!
Something to note on this performance; Three singers, one mike. No mistakes allowed on the harmony. This is a perfect example of how much talent these guys had.
that was NOT a live recording, just the video made for the song. They were very talented though, love them!
@@daryldietz3839 You beat me to it. Studio recording but, yep, amazing either way.
100%
They could sing the phone book and it would sound like heaven!!!!!
Barry, the lead singer, is the big brother. The other 2 are twins ... Maurice and Robin. The twins have sadly passed away but Barry is still with us and still making music!!!! They wrote all their own music and NO autotune!!!!! This is PURE talent! SO glad I got to grow up with this music!!!
I know I wish death or disease never happened or existed because I like them and I wish people lived forever and death and disease never existed or happened ever again 😢❤💜♥️❤️🩹😭😩💝🥹😔
because I’ve been their biggest fan and supporter for a long time now 😢❤😭😩🥹💜💗❤️💕💝❤️🩹😭😔
You missed the baby brother, Andy. He was so big back in the mid 70s. A teen heart throb of the time. 💕
@@tinalinge2782who was taken away to soon. Often wondered how it would have been had he lived.
Let's not forget Andy
No auto tune just talent they were the best
So happy to see this generation appreciate music from the 70's! It's over 40 years and Bee Gees songs are classics!
Barry married his wife (still married) in Sept. 1970, so he ain't been knockin' nothin' but her. 😄 Harmony like that only comes with singing together their whole lives. Barry was 9, and Robin and Maurice (fraternal twins) were 6 when they started. Check out 'Boys Do Fall In Love' to hear a totally different Robin!
They gave the proceeds from this song to Unicef in perpetuity. The first year it earned over $1m for the charity and it is still going. Last I heard it has given over $60m to Unicef
"Nobody gets too much heaven no more". I think it means that its difficult to attain that special love. They're still waiting in line for it. Its like climbing that mountain
They WROTE THEIR OWN LYRICS AND MUSIC TOO. WROTE FOR MANY OTHER ARTISTS TOO. THEY WERE BORN TO DO THIS. THEIR VOICES WERE ON LOAN FROM HEAVEN. PERIOD
God given. Spot on.
The Bee Gees are the 3 Brothers Gibb. Barry was born in 1946. Robin (long blond hair) and Maurice (pronounced Morris) are fraternal twins born in 1949. They started singing when Barry was 8 and the twins Maurice and Robin were 5 in 1958. Their first albums came out in the early 1960’s. Their career ran from 1958 to 2009. After 2009 Robin and Barry still produced music and albums but not under the Bee Gees.
Their father was a drummer who had a band that played in clubs. Their mother was a dance hall singer. They started singing and playing their instruments as young children on the back of a pickup truck at the Sidney, Australia speedway for the coins tossed to them for spending money. The music producer Bill Gates saw them at the speedway and offered to manage them. Once the boys started getting a lot of gigs their father became their manager and the boys supported the family of 7 (Mother, father, Barry, the twins, a sister, and their younger brother Andy). When they were in their later teens they dropped out of school and eventually moved back to the UK where they were born. This was the same time as the Beatles phenomenon. The rest is history.
The twins have passed away, Maurice (1/12/2002) and Robin (5/20/2012). Barry is still alive at the age of 76, and still writing songs, performing, and putting out albums. One of the great things about the Bee Gees and their long career is that they were constantly growing and reinventing themselves.
They have a younger brother Andy (born 3/5/1958) who performed on his own. The Bee Gees wrote songs for him and sometimes they all performed together. Andy was just as talented as his older brothers. Andy died in 3/10/1988 from inflammation of the years, as a result of a viral infection.
The Bee Gees wrote and produced over 1,000 songs to include songs they wrote for Diana Ross, Dion Warrick, Celine Dion, Barbara Streisand, Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton and even Michael Jackson.
They have sold over 120 million records worldwide (with estimates as high as over 225 million records sold worldwide), making them among the best-selling music artists of all time. They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997; the Hall's citation says, "Only Elvis Presley, the Beatles, Michael Jackson, Garth Brooks and Paul McCartney have outsold the Bee Gees." With nine number-one hits on the Billboard Hot 100, the Bee Gees are the third-most successful band in Billboard charts history behind only the Beatles and the Supremes.
Just a little thing; They did start when Barry was 8-9 & the twins 5, nearly 6, in 1955 (rather than 1958). 1955, they began as The Rattlesnakes. They moved to Australia early 1958 & performed briefly as Wee Johnny Hays & the Blue Cats, which is when they met Bill Goode & Bill Gates. 1958, Gates changed their name to BG's (later Bee Gees), inspired by all the BG initial's in the room (Bill Gates, Bill Goode, Barry Gibb & mother Barbara Gibb). They later realized BGs/Bee Gees could also stand for Brothers Gibb.
The Bee Gees' sister Lesley Gibb, born 1945, England, was an English singer, now retired, Lesley also performed with her brothers, If I'm correct in a London concert early 1970's Lesley filled in for one of her brothers. Lesley is now a dog breeder and lives in New South Wales, Australia.
Robin passed away in 2012. Only Barry is left of the 4 brothers (not forgetting Andy, who briefly sung with the group before going solo).
@@kens.4198 My understanding of Andy’s career trajectory is different. Being 12 years younger than Barry and 9 years younger than the twins, Andy started his career in groups with his peers and then had a solo career (with the songwriting, producing and backup singing support of his brothers, Barry in particular). Andy performed with The Bee Gees a bit in the Spirits Having Flown concerts and was planning on joining them more in 1988, but sadly, he unexpectedly passed before that became a reality. He left us with so many gorgeous songs, for which I’m very thankful.
This is my first time sitting in with you, thank you for allowing me to do that! Barry's falsetto is what you are noticing when he goes high like that!
"He's about to do it again" I loved it when you said that! GREAT reaction, I'm glad I chose this as my first time sitting in with you! FABULOUS!
They have many songs that will blow you away! AWESOME!
Too Much Heaven is from the Bee Gee's live performance at The Music for UNICEF Concert: A Gift of Song. It was a benefit concert of popular music held in the United Nations General Assembly in New York City on January 9, 1979. It was intended to raise money for UNICEF world hunger programs and to mark the beginning of the International Year of the Child. The concert was videotaped and broadcast the following day on NBC in the U.S. and around the world. The Bee Gees gave UNICEF rights to all royalties from the song. It's raised about $13 Million for UNICEF thus far.
this my cousin? Eileen:)
@@ecoman351 No, not your cousin. But it's always good to meet another Welch. 😀
My fascination for the Bee Gees started in 1967 when I was in the 8th grade. For me their best songs were the early ones . Words, Gotta Get a Message to You, I Started a Joke, How Do Mend a Broken Heart, To love Somebody, Massachusetts , Holiday. These are my favorites.
In later years I liked How Deep is your Love.
I have seen a lot of reaction videos to this song and yours was up there for me. You really appreciate their voices. They have been singing together since 1958! They were just young lads. They’ve been singing through the 60s, the 70s, the 80s, the 90s, and even into the early 2000s before Maurice passed away in 2003. They have written over 1000 songs. In my opinion they are the best singers/songwriters in the entire universe. Hands-down. Nobody can sound like the Bee Gees you are in for a treat going down the Bee Gees rabbit hole.😅
So glad to see people appreciate the wonderful music of the Bee Gees again. We thought nothing of the high notes and beautiful harmonies at the time but we loved the Bee Gees! They have a catalogue that would keep you busy for the next few years, believe me. They have a great variety in their music and their voices are so unique. If you love this song, you will love their other works. Thank you for keeping this great music alive. My favorite is "How Can You Mend A Broken Heart", among many others.
Their range, harmony and song writing skills are second to none. The Brothers Brilliant never disappoint.
In this song, and many others of theirs they sing in falsetto - a method of voice production used by male singers, especially tenors, to sing notes higher than their normal range. A lot of their songs are done in their natural deeper voices. They discovered their falsetto voices in the 1970's.
You want funk, check out their song “ love you inside and out”….they liked the Delphonics, the Spinners and others. They grew up listening to the Mills Brothers. You should hear Barry’s Chest voice…he has a fantastic range, can go low he can go high. Low is Barbitone, middle is Tenor and high is soprano. The lead on this song is Barry, he has been married to Linda for over 50 years and took her and his family on the road, she was there for everything. He said family was everything to him, that he couldn’t do what he did without having them. He has 5 grown children and last count 8 grandchildren. In fact when they moved their operation to Miami in the 70’s He moved his wife’s family from Scotland over too. The two on the sides were twins, Robin and Maurice ( pronounced Morris), they are fraternal twins. They have been recording and performing as the BeeGees since 1958 through the 2000’s until Mo died. They wrote over 1000 songs and wrote songs for other artists and produced them too.
This song is over 40 years old now. They wrote this song for UNICEF, all of the royalties has raised over 15 million dollars for that organization over the years. The lead singer is Barry Gibb, sadly the other brothers has passed away a number of years ago. Check out their song Night Fever
They started singing professionally as small children in the 1950s and had hits for 5 decades until Maurice’s death in 2003. Their sound/style changed with every decade. Hope you try more!
Spent the evening watching loads of you youngsters falling in love with the Bee Gees like I did growing up with them
Barry and his friend David were driving back to Miami from Philadelphia (circa 74) and listening to tunes on the radio when the Stylistics came on. The Gibb brothers had only recently moved to America and were looking for a new sound since their previous ballads were no longer in demand. Barry says he was amazed and intrigued by the falsetto from this R&B group, and it wasn't long before he was trying it out himself; and ultimately found the new sound for the Bee Gees.
Soo the story I saw on their documentary was when it was suggested by the producer one of them scream while recording Nights on Broadway, and Barry did. And voila, they discovered Barry's falsetto, now legendary:)
@@happy777abc Barry's also said that he always appreciated the falsettos used by the Beach Boys, as well as Frankie Valli; so he must've been surprised at how his own developed during that period of the recording of "Main Course."
Great reaction, you have to check out "Fanny be tender with my love", the vocal range that they show in that song will truly blow you away. They're a once in a lifetime talent that generations will get to appreciate
Such a great song.
10/10 indeed ! here we can see just how good the human voice can get.
I loved their sixties songs. 70s included disco. 80s, 90s and early 2000 all excellent, but different styles. Barry released an album of older songs with a new twist, sung by him and several guests, e.g. Dolly Parton, Olivia Newton-John, etc. Lovely. Btw Barry has been married to his wife for about 52 years. 5 kids. The twins passed away, Morris in 2003 and Robin in 2012, if I remember correctly. The youngest brother, Andy, died in 1988. He also had a successful singing career. Amazing talents.
This song and all proceeds was given to UNICEF charities. Has raised like 15 million dollars. They not only sang, but wrote, hundreds and hundreds of songs
Great journey ahead. Bee Gees started in 1958 as kids. Late 60s first success, then mid 70s, then late 70s MEGA success. 40 plus year career. Wrote all their own songs Inc hits for others! How Deep is your Love, Fanny be tender with my love, Night Fever, You should be dancing, You Win Again...just to get you started!
As close to perfection that can be achieved ;) They didn't know they could sing that high until 3 years before this song. That's what I would call fast learners lol
your right manthese vocals are supernatural ,they are flawless,way beyond the ability of man,they were gifted by God.The same God that makes the birds sing their songs every mirning.
They all have perfect pitch.
Sad news, only Barry, the lead singer, is still alive today.
The Gibb Brothers, including younger bother Andy , not seen here, will forever be remembered as some of the best pure macho male vocals ever
Welcome to the rabbit hole! The Bee Gees were the greatest ever!! Their music touches your heart and soul! Watch Fanny be tender with my love!!
There's a song they did in 1967 called " To Love Somebody " It was before they did falsetto it's also one of my favorite songs by them-hope you give it a try
Mesmerising arent they?

I love to watch a reactor who reacts to the songs! It’s fun to rediscover a favorite artist through new eyes and the insight they offer. Too many reactors play a video, say “I really liked that song” then go into a five minute pitch to get you to subscribe to their channel! Thank you for a wonderful reaction!
I was a young married woman (19) in 1977 when Staying Alive the Movie came out. Ohmygoodness gracious, the BeeGees were sooo awesome!
Loved your reaction!!! It's a trip watching the younger generation discovering the Bee Gees. (Sorry for flooding your comments. I've been rediscovering the Bee Gees and really enjoy this. Hope this is all helpfull to you.)
Music is all about frequencies. When the frequencies touch your soul, you get chills. Welcome to my generation music.
Guinness World Records lists Barry Gibb as the second highest-grossing songwriter in history behind McCartney. Try Fanny be tender , You should be dancing, nights on broadway, love you inside out....1
In my opinion that's the way they rank in Rock history also. Beatles #1 and BGs #2.
This song came out in 1979.
Barry (middle) has a high pitched falsetto, and he had that tremble in his voice. They have unique voices, especially Barry, when he hits those high notes! They harmonize beautifully together. Yet, they each stand out. I love The Bee Gees! Barry... ahhhh! Especially when he sings, "Ooooh, you and me girl..." My God! Barry, makes women fall in love with him. 😜
Maurice has quite a deep voice, see him with Lulu doing the first of May. Robin has a very unique voice, see Massachusetts. Barry's voice sounds a little higher, see Words, from early in their career. They write the songs, when they became unpopular after disco died, he just started writing hits for other artists, Mo called him a hit machine. You have to see Jive Talking, for the funk. These guys were first signed in the 60's as kids, Barry did an album last year they wrote over 1,000 songs..
They listened to Motown groups, the Everly Brothers, Beach Boys, the Mills Brothers, the Beatles for the harmonies. Mo loved to sing harmony and he said he would listen for hours to the groups that harmonized and that is how he learned to sing harmony. They also loved Stevie Wonder, Otis Redding (wrote a song for him but he died before he could record it, so they recorded it) and other black artists.
I was in high school in the seventies. The Bee Gees got some radio play then, but Saturday Night really pushed them over the top and on to a string of hits. The pure talent of the Brothers Gibb.
Did you get to see them live?
@@MMBxMOB No. I was into hard rock, but I respected their talent.
The BeeGees one of Gods gifts to mankind!!
Barry, the guy in the middle has been very happily married for the last 56 years. He could've had any woman, clearly. But he loves his wife. Something you don't see much.
Pure raw talent that's all
So there are so many songs that I want you to listen to from the Bee Gees but here are some of my favorites to get started. Fanny be tender with my love, love you inside and out, to love somebody, nights on Broadway, I started a joke, holiday, and New York Mining disaster. Enjoy😊
They're brothers that got into singing at an early age. I think at least one of their parents was into music professionally.
Gotta love the Bee Gees! They started churning out hits in the 60s. Barry is still at it, and came out with a new album about 2 years ago - a compilation of Bee Gees tunes in duets with country singers. It's excellent, and called Greenfields. Oh, and he's been happily married since 1970 to Linda Gray.
they had a younger broher named Andy Gibb , he died at 30 years old , he was so good . i really think you would enjoy his music also . my favorite song is Shadow Dancing and Barry sings backup it is wonderful .
Nowadays, the Bee Gees are mostly famous for singing in the falsetto range, but in their early days they sounded a lot different. Their music career spans over 5 decades - first formed in 1958 as a trio of kid singers/musicians. So there is a variety of different music that they've delved into & collaborated with many other artists over the years. Barry (the oldest, in the middle) is usually lead, but Robin has also been lead vocals on several notable songs. Robin (on the left, white shirt) had such a melodic, ethereal voice with that soft warbling we all recognized as being his unique trademark sound. He was considered to be the "songbird" of the family. Many folks say that Robin had the best voice out of all the Gibb brothers. Sadly, both twins passed away (2003 & 2012). Luckily for us, Barry is still alive & continues to make music. His 3rd solo album was released in Jan. 2021
Their inspiration started with the Mills Brothers (Their dad's favorite group) and the harmonies they were famous for. Then later lots of soul singers influenced their RnB, funk, falsetto phase 1975- 1985-ish and later, once in a while, a track or two per album.
Ahhhh that is interesting, so music is literally in their veins!
Barry is the oldest, he is the only one alive. The one on his right is Robin, (white shirt) on the left is Maurice. Robin and Maurice are twins. Their younger brother Andy who had a solo career passed away at 30. The boys have been singing together since they were 13 and 10 years old. Check out their songs from rhe beginning, Massachusetts, and New York Minning Disaster
Many babies were conceived with their music.
Yes this was a no.1 song and the incredible generous Bees donated the royalty of the song to the Unicel to help the children of the world.🎉❤😊
Great group you’d like Fanny Be Tender With My Heart. and Tragedy. Jive Talking. Nobody has a voice like theirs. Unbelievable. They had hits in the 60’s 70’s 80’s and 90’s in the 90’s it was When The Bell Toll’s. They still had it lol. Three brothers Barry lead singer twin brothers Robin and Maurice. They wrote all their music even wrote songs for other artist. Barry is the only one still living
They formed as a group in 1958 and have been performing since the 1960's consisting of Barry, Maurice and Robin. They had a younger brother Andy that also had a awesome voice died in his early thirty's. Barry is the only surviving member. They have written numerous Number One hits for many other artists such as Dolly Parton/Kenny Rogers Islands in the Stream, Immortality for Celine Dion
What a fantastic reaction video! Your astonishment is delightful xx Everyone has already said anything I could add except that to note that they were all wonderful musicians as well, particularly Maurice. His ear and ability to translate the sound to numerous instruments is really fantastic. His bass playing was above par... take a listen to Jive Talkin', my favorite bass line of all time. Also, none of the brothers could read music. They had pure genuine talent, each with different vocal sounds and areas that they excelled in, as well as the ability to mimic each other and combine their voices together to create an even different sound (like Barry and Robin singing melody together.) I really do hope you have time to explore more of their entire catalog. I believe you will continue to be astonished at what you hear. Also, they wrote for other vocalists of the time as well... Kenny and Dolly, Dionne Warwick, Diana Ross, Oliva Newton John, Barbara Streisand, Celine Dion and many others. Enjoy!!
The three high ranges of the Bee Gees sound is vibrato, soprano, and falsetto
Robin was the only one with vibrato, a rapid variation in pitch in milliseconds and is natural to very few people. Barry had tremolo, a variation in volume that sounds similar but can be learned..
The Bees Gees were amazing! The late 70s and 80s ROCKED!!!! Times were much simpler then. Everyone loved everyone…. We lived, loved and laughed hard…. Had a blast…
Great reaction love the Bee gees there my favourite band I still have the vinyl records I bought when I was a teenager.thanks for the memories . I do have a request Her name his Graces Vanderwall she’s a singer songwriter I often compare her music to the bee gees because is her voice and lyrics if you could you check out a song she wrote for sister at the age of 12 the song is called (Beautiful Thing) you can find it on her channel hopefully you can react to her
Thanks again for this great reaction
Try Love You Inside Out! One of my favorite BeeGees. SO many to pick from
That’s what we in Texas call “panty dropper vocals”!!!!!! The woman were throwing their underwear on stage after that performance!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 So says Austin Tx!!!!! 😎🍸
I doubt it.
They are basically singing "finding love is hard, its hard to come by. But you and me, we got a good thing, we got it".
Barry's falsetto is outrageous. All great singers and musicians. + writers.
Fantastic reaction 😊
good prom song...back in them late 70s I know they wore it out in the prom
The harmony of the Bee Gees was spot on and amazing. As you know they were very popular in the 70's also with Disco. There was a 4th Bee Gees brother called Andy Gibb. Check out Shadow dancing with Andy Gibb. Sadly, Andy passed on at a early age but very talented.
The BeeGees sing all Base Tenner Alto. Superbly! Give them a fair chance and you WILL be amazed.
If you want to hear their normal voice range you need to see *To Love Somebody* 1967.
If you like Barry's high notes you should check out the *Righteous Brothers* from the 60's. Start with *You've Lost That Loving Feeling* then do *Unchained Melody* 1965 where the tenor of their duo does a solo song.
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 their own unique falsetto's, baritone chest voices, and everything in-between, and were also able to slide up and down with ease!!! IMO, they are the most talented group, & exceptional singers of all time! 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 ❤❤❤
I appreciate this reaction, real, honest and you appreciate the vocals , i was a teenager in the 70's and then disco in the 80's and 90's , they were honestly great! timeless music
Thank you Kathleen!
The song you need to do next is "How Deep is Your Love." Excellent just like all the other BeeGee songs.
The Bee Gees were the '70s. The Bee Gees and KC and the Sunshine band and Andy Gibb the little brother they were the 70s. Another great one from the Bee Gees is love you inside and out. Spirits having flown so many
4 beegees brothers Barry, the twins Robin and Maurice and Andy. Barry is the only one left. They started in the late 50's. Barry wrote the song to his wife.
All three brothers are credited as writers of this song, not just Barry. Most people think Barry wrote everything. He wrote most of the songs only until the twins were in their early teens. Barry and Robin usually wrote together (@90% of their songs and those they wrote for other singers)and occasionally Maurice as well. Maurice did most of the musical arrangements. Robin also wrote quite a few solo songs.
Love how Robin sings with his hands on his hips making it look so effortless~
You should listen to Fanny Be Tender With My Love. That will show more range. Their catalogue is amazing and the rabbit hole is extremely deep! Enjoy the journey. You won’t be disappointed.
You need to listen to their songs from other eras, not just disco. You need to hear the other brothers sing lead as well. Robin's voice (the beardless one) was my favorite. All three wrote their songs.
Robin is my favorite too. Listen to some of their early songs where he sang lead.
@@donyawicken2521 - He sang a lot of leads in the 80's and 90's too once they dropped the disco stuff. Great songs like "Bodyguard", "I still love you", "Rings around the moon", "Heart like mine", "When he's gone", "Cryin' every day", "Fallen Angel", and some great solo albums with songs like "Juliet", "Don't cry alone". "Days of wine and roses", "All we have is now".
Really, really late to this party RG's. Just catching up and loved all your comments. We need to always keep our guy in the forefront and encourage our wonderful reactors to delve into pre and post disco era songs.
@@lauriebarnes2999 - We need to encourage reactors to listen to all of their different eras and genres of music. They are so much more than one type of music although everyone reacts to "disco" and "falsetto". They were not just one vocalist and composer but three composers, unique voices and three distinct personalities. IMO the twins were the most witty and personable of them all. To ignore Mo and Rob is simply to deprive listeners and the reactors themselves.
Well said, Q, well said.
That is a Gift for God.
Great reaction. You crack me e up. You gave the Bee Gees their just due and this song, as well.
I found your channel looking for Bee gees reactions. Please react to the Bee Gees song Fanny be Tender with My Love
Now you know when we say old school had the best music now you know why. I grew up with the Bee Gees (BGs=Brothers Gibb) and I always thank them for the many sore backs they helped me get. That was long before auto-tune, they are legendary. Only he (Barry) is alive now, they were musical geniuses.
They are brothers and wrote their own music and lyrics . 2 brothers are dead now but the middle one . .Barry . .is still alive
Andy their younger Brother passed and Robin and Maurice passed away and their parents too
Look how relaxed BeeGees sing Two Much Heaven, not one BeeGee straining to reach a note 11/21/22
Dude the harmony of all three of them together is so amazing
Middle aged white woman here-I love watching the reactions of black men to this song by the BeeGees! Precious!
I know of no black band that can sing power falsetto like the brothers Gibb, only ballads! For some reason, blacks seem to think they are superior in singing, sports & everything else, but I have news for them, white people have rhythm & blues also.
I had the absolute pleasure of getting to see these amazing band of brothers LIVE in 1998. They didn't disappoint. What an amazing show! It's sad that nobody will ever get to see them live again but I'm super proud I can say I did. R.I.P Maurice & Robin 🙏🙏❤❤❤
Just stumbled upon your channel today. I've watched numerous RUclipsrs react to the Bee Gees over the past few years. It's always so refreshing (& fun) to watch new people discover all the amazing music I was lucky to grow up with... I'm 55 now (56 next spring) & discovered The Bee Gees when I was about 10 years old, when the movie Saturday Night Fever came out in 1977.
Let me rephrase that, I had first heard the Bee Gees on a song called "Jive Talkin" when I was about 8 yrs old. It was on the radio all the time. It's one of those songs with such an infectious beat that it just takes over & your body starts moving automatically. I had heard their music on radio or TV, but never made the connection of WHO they were, y'know what I mean?
OK, flash forward 2 years & my cousin just bought the soundtrack album to the 1977 film "Saturday Night Fever". Of course, neither one of us saw the movie, as it was R rated & we were only 10 & 13 yrs old at the time. She bought the double album & we listened to it on repeat. I remember it had photos of scenes from the movie. But I didn't care about the film, I just liked all the great music I was hearing! Shortly after that day, I went out to the music store (What are those?!?! LOL) & bought the album for myself. I remember that it was the first time I had purchased "grown up's music" with my own weekly allowance money.
The Bee Gees wrote most of that soundtrack & it is filled with so much great music, sang either by them or other artists. The album is one of the best selling in recorded music history (40+ million copies) & still remains as the 2nd biggest selling soundtrack. It was #1 for years until The Bodyguard soundtrack (by Whitney Houston) broke sales record held since the late 70's!
In my youth, I was more of a fan-girl for their little brother, Andy Gibb. He tragically died back in 1988 at only 30 yrs old. His brothers collaborated on some of his music & he even performed with them a few times. A great video to check out by the Bee Gees is "You should be dancing" (from Saturday Night Fever). The video shows them on stage with Andy, standing next to Maurice & it also has clips from the movie featuring John Travolta's glorious disco dance moves.
And to think NO autotune or enhancements. This was recorded 20 years BEFORE autotune.
Never again will hear harmonies like this that only brothers could achieve.
Real talent, 1 mic and 3 voices as one.
RIP Maurice, Robin and little brother Andy.
PERFECT HARMONY
….. Took all of the Grammy’s in the 70’s 🏆.
Soprano, Alto, Tenor, Bass. They could sing high for sure (falsetto), but didn't always, but yeah CHILLS!! 😁 I think they are probably tenors, but can sing the entire range. You'll have to check out their 5+ decade catalog deeper to catch it all! 😁 Barry (middle) and fraternal twin brothers Robin (white shirt) and Maurice (black shirt). They said their inspirations were The Mills Brothers, The Everly Brothers, The Beatles, etc. They called themselves blue-eyed soul R&B. Their dad was drummer in a band and their mother the singer. They started singing "organically" in 3 part harmony at about 5 and 8, immigrated to Australia in 1958 from England, became the Bee Gees, then went back to England in 1967 and their first #1 was New York Mining Disaster and then Massachusetts. Some of my other favorites that I would recommend are One, Mr. Natural, Walking on Air, Alone, You Win Again (Princess Diana's favorite song), Paying the Price of Love, Still Waters (and everything from the Still Waters album!), Paradise, Happy Ever After, Love is Blind, Just in Case, For Whom the Bell Tolls, This is Where I Came In, Fanny Be Tender with My Love, To Love Somebody, Lay It On Me, Living Eyes, Wildflower, Tears, When He's Gone, and Man In The Middle, JUST TO NAME A FEW!! ❤❤❤
Great reaction, loved it!! Enjoy the Bee Gees rabbit hole, you are now hooked!!
