Old songs are incomparable to today's garbage. Remember, when American DJs wouldn't play BeeGees songs because they considered them crap, well they're dead wrong coz people find them classic - a masterpiece , and will be enjoyed by generations to come.
The Bee Gees - three musical geniuses whose lyrics, harmonies, melodies and unique sound (and talent to adapt and stay current for five decades...) will remain unmatched - indefinitely... because, true Legends never die... 💙💛🌹💜🍎🇺🇸
It's astonishing the garbage that passes for music these. And have the nerve to reward such crap with Grammy's and accolades galore.. I only listen to 60s and 70s music. Nothing really compares.
I love you Robin. You were so intelligent. You were always so handsome. Your voice could make songs so haunting and beautiful. You will be in my heart forever. Rest In Peace. ❤️🌹❤️
God how awful to lose these treasures ,I feel the world will never have the quality of the 60s, 70s, I feel so sad that commercial music today cannot ever measure up to the Bee Gees sheer natural harmonies.
There will NEVER be another sound comparable to the Bee Gees! There's was uniquely without limits. They could do any genre of music, and do it better than anyone else ever could. Their talent and gift of prolific composition of both music and lyrics cannot be matched. Their stage presence and senses of humor brought light and love to all those who witnessed their GREATNESS! IMO even the Beatles didn't compare to the Bee Gees...not in composition or harmonics! THEY WERE THE GREATEST!!!
They also wrote their own stuff, while the Beatles were a covers band until they were signed and had their songs written for them. Donovan wrote Blackbird and George Martin wrote Eleanor Rigby, for example. The Bee Gees left the Beatles in the dust talent-wise.
@@coolnamebroAmen! They knew nothing about music, only what they felt in their heart and soul really. They wanted to be famous and I tell you this.....They delivered! 👍👏 ❤J
I recognized talent when I saw The Bee Gees for the first time on Top Of The Pops in 1967. The song was Massachusetts and immediately I was hooked. I was 12 and played it on our local jukebox till eventually I decided to buy the record with my pocket money. Then, they did “World” and the next day I bought the record in the freezing cold at the end Of 1967. These two songs are still my favourites by them and, amazingly, I managed to hold on to the records!
I used to listen to Radio Luxemburg at night, secretly, and every time I turned the radio on there was a BeeGees song. Loved the older songs, didn't quite care for the disco era, got quite a few CDs with the older material. They had to do the hard slog to start up like the Beatles, performing in clubs and pubs, really like any of the great bands in the sixties, no synthesizer, electric guitars just tlent. I like how he said we and us, just a gentleman.
Carve it in stone! Everything Robin said is the rock solid truth about the junk I hear today! Beautiful and complex harmonies over amazingly clever chord changes, the Gibbs were masters at it, master! In 40 years NO ONE will be listening to J.B. or B.S., no one! However, Barry, Maurice and Robin Gibb's great-grandchildren will still be enjoying a steady stream of royalties! Their music simply defies description...
The Bee Gees are, were & will ALWAYS be the best. They are also 3 of the nicest famous people I've met. Thank you guys for giving me some amazing memories.
I am from America, I am an old lady and loved the Bee Gees music in the 60's and 70's. Just recently I started listening to them again and now I am obsessed with their music and learning new things about them. I enjoy watching the old videos of them when they were just boys. Robin was my favorite. He really was fun to watch. Always clowning around. Not to mention his voice. Every time I hear him sing I get chills. I Started A Joke is one of my old favorites. I just recently ordered the Ultimate Bee Gees CD on Amazon. It has all my favorites by them. Can't wait to get it so I can listen to them in my vehicle. RIP Robin and Maurice. Your music lives on through your fans.
We love so much a talented cutest a handsome in those their days powerful melody are blending together trio beegees, love them Barry, rob!& mo.rip the two miss them !!!
Robin should have walked out on this interview. What a jerk! How dare him. Robin is an icon and should demand respect. The Bee Gees truly did "live and breathe in the recording studio." Nobody handed them their success.
This is very, very different to, for example the Clive Anderson interview. The whole notion of this segment was 'Hard Talk' where it was designed to be asking tough, sensitive questions. There is no ambush going on here, and Robin knew before he went on what the line of questions was likely to be on so he was able to be prepared and with his eyes open. Which he did, and did very well throughout this interview. So no, I'm afraid I don't agree with your comment, and nor should any other objective, aware person.
Oh My God Robin... Are you Busy after the show... I miss you so much. I see the brightest star that shines ever night. And that is you and Andy and Maurice. I Miss you Men so much. Music has never been the same. See you all in Heaven one day... Much LOVE!!!!!!!!
Robin was so brilliant, talented and a beautiful loving person! Miss you, Robin! I think of Dwina often and hope she is doing well. Robin and Dwina stuck together through good and sad times.
yes the bee gees were child stars, but there was no record label that pushed them on stage. everything they did was done because they loved making music and were good at it. and they grew up and still made popular music, which is something we most likely wont see Justin bieber do.
I get where Robin is coming from. No band can outdo nor replicate them and what they have contributed to the music industry. RIP to this great artist and to Mo and Andy!
Creating music for the love of the craft. I agree with everything he said. Auto tune is something I would not use. In my opinion hearing small areas where there is some imperfection is great because you know you are listening to pure music. I remember singing in front of a person that had done some songs. I heard this person say...those mics will make anyone sound good. It actually caused me to join a group of musicians and vocalists who critiqued each other’s work. I wrote most of my own songs...did some collaborations...and it was so uplifting. It did become too much work because the more you had following you, the more you followed and you had to keep up with comments and other artists music. At around 5000 followers...I cut it off. My father was sick and I did not have the time to keep up with comments and following other artists. I plan to do more music at some point, but currently I am caring for my mother. Having said all that I have the upmost respect for the music of The Bee Gees. This is real talent. No smoke and mirrors. This is a group that composed music that cannot he touched by any other artists. I am in awe of their talent.
It was their God -given gift that enabled them to Purdue their dream and sing . This compare us so annoying . He keeps trying to layer the interview with his own criticisms . Great , honest responses from Robyn .
My husband and I often talk about How today they Take someone who Looks good but can't sing and Add all kind of Sinthesized Voices. There is no individual voices. All sound alike. So glad I grew up When there was real Talent. Bravo to real talent.
How can you mend a broken hurt.my heart was so broken when Andy Maurice and Robin dies they left me so broken hurted up to now only thier videos make feel happy.but so empty.i love you brother gibb.
Bee Gees have so many memorable songs from each album. Today's "artists" have only one hit wonders which are attached to movies or even memes but are musically empty.
So what? He had to say it so often so that this arrogant interviewer and all other fools GET IT. I am not sure they do... He answered the questions exemplarily, he is a gentleman. RIP Robin, you have my total respect!
I couldn't agree with You more! This "host" is behaving like a complete JERK - while Robin Gibb (as always...) remained a true Gentle-man (dash intended...). We lost a musical genius way too soon...💜 💙💛🌹💜🍎🇺🇸
I so agree with Robin about artist now a days because now a days most pop singers can't sing live, and they are just not true artist. I mean some pop singer don't even deserve what they have. I mean for sake, all people really care about how they sound it is how they look. I mean singers also don't even work up to what they are now. You can just get discovered od frkien youtube now a days, I mean they just didn't work up to what they have and it just isn't fair.
Oh, my dear Robin, you and Mo are forever missed! Everything about you was special, the three of you brother's was other worldly. I do understand that it was work and real dedication to your craft! But, the three, Brother's Gibb never gave up, you were dedicated crafter's with a Golden Gift from above! And, the smile you put on the World will go on and on in the decades to come! See you in Heaven.
Robin was great, he outtalked and outsmarted that host because he is so intelligent and puts weight behind his words, he never sais anything without carefully thinking through every word before he says it . And he is very hard to talk over as well because he doesn't let interviewers do it he holds his own with them as this interview and others show. I really enjoy watching it, thanks for posting When was this broadcast? Seems to me like 2010. Am I right?
Oh, spot on Robin! Pop musicians these days sell their looks, not any talent they may have. The people who write the songs for them stay in the shadows, no one cares to know their names. (Geeze, I think that _I_ sing better than most of today's pop artists.) Everyone goes on about the Bee Gees' harmonies, which were great, but they could all hold their own alone as well and their lyrics actually meant something. And good job not letting the guy get away with dominating the conversation and putting words in your mouth.
Thanks for sharing this posting Julian.Robin did good on this interview as the interviewer was a bit straight.love all the Bee Gees and Andy.RIP .maurice.Robin.Andy.Hugh & Barbara Gibb. Xx
Robin is/was brilliant. The interviewer was a bit of a jerk and kept insisting they were pushed on stage as children. Robin was such a gentleman when the reporter kept contradicting him. I'd have told him to shut the hell up and listen!
Actually, Violet640, NO! I don't remember there EVER being a time when DJ's wouldn't play the Bee Gees in America. The Bee Gees were ALWAYS considered a stellar group for composition, style, harmonics, and presentation. There's simply NO possible way to avoid hearing/seeing talent when it's as obvious as the Bee Gees!
He's a straight shooter with strong opinions and very proud of his achievements. He's so right about today's karaoke singers. The 70s and 80s musicians in general were so creative, writing their own music, creating their own style. I remember listening to the radio back then and there was always something new and so exciting every week.
Is this guy even listening or just trying to validate his own assumptions, I think Robin might be the definitive expert on his own fricken life, If you don't mind big boy.
2:57 -- OMG that's hilarious and sad at the same time. "It was harder, because you had to be able to sing." Ain't that the damn truth. You had to actually be a MUSICIAN.
Awesome interview Robin. You handled it like a Boss. Very intelligent & can speak volume & make sense ..beautiful response to the dumb questions asked.🍂
The good old days were just better, there is no comparison today to Beatles, Stones, ABBA, Bee Gees, Motown, no one will be listening to Ed Sheeran or Taylor Swift in 2074.
"what does it take to be a pop idol?" Huh? Sounds like the notorious Clive Anderson interview all over again. It starts badly and gets worse. Bee Gees made hugely touching songs, impossibly wonderful harmonies. In Europe they're total heroes, but the UK media never understood em. The brothers weren't their own best publicists: It's all in the Songs, not the singers.
To those of you that think Robin was treated unfairly and disrespectfully this is the raison detre of the programme HARDtalk provides "in-depth interviews with hard-hitting questions and sensitive topics being covered as famous personalities from all walks of life talk about the highs and lows in their lives."[
Barry Gordy was working with class artists , today they are 4th division artists compared to then, waterman came along and then music died, with minogue and jason donavan, and just when you think it cant get worse, cowell comes along with his cronies, and does a hughie green type of bent show, that only promotes his acts, who he says is good, its corruption of the highest standard
I Get Robin cause like The Bee Gees my band the gudgetts is a band that are finding it’s footing by areselfs And not go for all that X factor Crap so good one Robin gibb very open on his Beliefs
Old songs are incomparable to today's garbage. Remember, when American DJs wouldn't play BeeGees songs because they considered them crap, well they're dead wrong coz people find them classic - a masterpiece , and

Nobody taught them anything about music! That voice - those harmonies -- those songs... Unfreakinbelievable!!
Robin worked so hard to succeed and that he did masterfully! An angel singing in heaven now.
I love you Robin. You were so intelligent. You were always so handsome. Your voice could make songs so haunting and beautiful. You will be in my heart forever. Rest In Peace. ❤️🌹❤️
Sadly Robin passed away 10 years ago today. Such a talented singer and writer of some of the best songs ever written. Love the BeeGees ❤️

Robin is sooooo intelligent~ NOT just a beautiful voice!
The Gibb brothers actually possessed genuine, abundant Talent. Masters of Music.
And this interviewer just wants to argue with Robin! Pathetic little man.
❤❤❤😂😊😊😊
Bee Gees are so different and very special. Music is so cool and sweet to everyone's ear. There's no copy cat at all. Genius and the best of all💖🌟

Awesome interview Robin.
You handled it like a Boss.
Very intelligent & can speak volume & make sense ..beautiful response to the dumb questions asked.🍂
Lovely man with a wonderful voice. Does anyone hear what he says at 3:27 while the interviewer is talking?
The good old days were just better, there is no comparison today to Beatles, Stones, ABBA, Bee Gees, Motown, no one will be listening to Ed Sheeran or Taylor Swift in 2074.
superb harmonies, and songwriters
"what does it take to be a pop idol?" Huh? Sounds like the notorious Clive Anderson interview all over again. It starts badly and gets worse.

The brothers weren't their own best publicists: It's all in the Songs, not the singers.
Yeah, and in that interview, the Bee Gees walk out after being insulted. I don't blame them a bit.
Can someone please tell me how the hell are you going to compare shit like Justin Bieber or Britney Spears to the Bee Gees!!!!
RIP ROBIN Your Music will live on so your infinity Love and miss you prayers Forever my friend.
Zero comparison
Bee Gees performances were actually concerts not just a show !!
Karaoke..is a good description of today's music
Anche se non capisco l'inglese per me è un piacere vederlo e sentire la sua voce ❤
No they don't get it. That's why most mainstream music today sounds like shit. Mainly because they are not composers and they are not musicians
I am 75 in Dec. 2019 and i love Robin and his brothers always.
Thanks Julian,great video,!
Great interview!!

Julian is right and Gloria, but I think Robin did a great job of answering the questions graciously and intelligently.
omg Robin answers the first 10 question bye saying, well we were composers, from an early age, ok Robin we get it
We get it, but I'm not sure the interviewer was getting it.
Well Andy the interviewer didn't get it. He kept repeating his question.
