Where is the sun
That shone on my head
The sun in my life
It is dead
It is dead
Where is the light
That would play
In my streets
And where are the friends
I could meet
I could meet
Where are the girls
I left far behind
The spicks and the specks
Of the girls on my mind
Where is the sun
That shone on my head
The sun in my life
It is dead
It is dead
Where are the girls
I left far behind
The spicks and the specks
Of the girls on my mind
Where are the girls
I left far behind
The spicks and the specks
Of the girls on my mind
Where is the girl I loved
All along
The girl that I loved
She's gone
She's gone
All of my life
I call yesterday
The spicks and the specks
Of my life 've gone away
All of my life
I call yesterday
The spicks and the specks
Of my life 've gone away
Everybody
Spicks and Specks

My father rented a house to the Gibb family in the early 60s. We lived in that home before moving into a larger house across the street. The only nemory i have of the Gibb family is looking across the street at a very young Andy Gibb and their German Shepherd dog.
I just found out this was played in an episode of The Walking Dead. Season 5. I had stuck in my head ever since 🙂
Same here for me. How are you doing? Hope you are fine and staying safe out there?
Same here 😂
De todos nós! Haha
You just had to be there at that time listening to this in walking dead to experience. Hope you're keeping well
Same
It's impossible to overstate the genius and the talent of the Bee Gees. They were so much more than the disco years.
Absolutely
Fabulous!!
Ya está la BIOPIC, HBO...I WAIT THE SAME SUCCES OF "BOHEMIAN RAPSODY" about QUEEN... AND ALL THE WORLD REVIVAL THIS MUSIC , THEIR VOICES AND SONGS!!!.
A sportscaster said he didn`t like the Bee Gees since it was disco music. I tweeted him to explain how they were way more than that.
@@eddygsmusicworld1708 - The guy is an idiot musically. Their so called disco era could accurately be described as R&B but the Bee Gees got labelled as disco, but their earlier stuff was very inventive, sometimes mistaken for the Beatles, and they did a lot of great stuff (Robin's solo cd's and their work with other artists) about which he has no clue. That's like saying you don't like ice cream because you don't like strawberry ice cream when there are dozens of flavors. He needs an education. I was born the same year as the twins and grew up with a lot of great music in the 60's and beyond. You can't dismiss someone because of a couple of songs you dislike or an era that was labelled as something. Robin cracks me up in this video. He surely was a character although he didn't always show it.
@@susieq7401 the guy is in his mid 30`s so its before his time. And i know the Bee Gees are more than disco . The guys focus in life is sports. I wish I saw the group,would be happy with just Barry since hes the only 1 left.
Robins face when Barry starts singing is priceless.
The three siblings who made up the Bee Gees had their first break when a DJ asked them to record some tracks for him. In a BBC tribute screened shortly after the death of Robin Gibb, they explained that after releasing no less than 13 singles, they felt they were not making any real progress, and decided to head back to the UK to ride the Mersey boom - which was launched by The Beatles. They issued what was intended to be their last Australian piece, “Spicks and Specks” (1966) and off they went.
Back then, they sailed rather then flew, and a week out they realized the song had reached #1❕💙🎼💜
Great song Barry. Entertaining video. He has some cool, modern-looking shades on, and it looks like he got his teeth fixed, and they’re toothpaste white. 😃 I like Robin’s reaction to Barry breaking into song. They don’t mind getting up close and personal, do they? Hope Barry ate some breath mints. Love his voice. ♥️
Why does this song get so overlooked ?.....there very first si gle release and such a good song from a brilliantly talented group😊😊😊.....God bless b kind to each other and love animals ❤
It's considered racist nowadays.
...and plants!
I loved pre disco BeeGees!
And this video is brilliant especially for the time period …. Epic!
@@Kube_DogThere’s nothing racist about it.
ウォーキングデッドで使われている曲で一瞬で好きになりました探して見つける事出来て嬉しい
My mum was with Barry and Robin Gibb at a coffee shop near the Enfield Hotel in South Australia when they penned this classic tune!😯😮😲🙂🙃
I'd love to hear about it!
Probably the most talented guys ever. Their list is incredible. Can't get enough
Hanson
So true!
@@sexobscurano
My mate Alex Hill played rhythm guitar in this classic for the Bee Gees, he passed away aged 72 last year, how time flies.
webaroos
That's great ! So sorry to hear he died. I miss Rob and Mo.
The Bee Gees were great their harmonies were mind blowing rip Maurice and robin
Barry is still singing today 🇬🇧🇮🇲🇦🇺🇨🇦🇫🇯🏴🇺🇸🏴 All OVER THE WORLD 🌎 MARILYN MARRIED BARRY GIBB HE LOVES MARILYN HE MARRIED ME
Marilyn NEWTON wtf....
@@marilynnewton2221 why do you post this everywhere?
Thank you BARRY, MAURICE and ROBIN for your wonderfull music !!!!!!!
What about andy gibb aswell when my uncle introduced me to songs from the beegees that I hadn't heard I was gob smacked how much I loved there music because I was not aware of all the songs that was written by them for other artists they had an absolute load of songs that they wrote which were chart toppers they have my respect
Barry is, quite simply, the best songwriter in modern times. IMHO and period.
Amen to that. How sad that artists at this level are not often fully recognized during their lifetimes.
Brilliant at such a young age and only got better. It’s almost unbelievable how gifted they were! ❤️
Das ist war!! ❤❤❤
Imagine a group of mere teenagers creating and performing a song at this calibre in today's day and age.
So true...and I'm still amazed how the early song lyrics are so profound and poetic rather than juvenile. Also, the majority of their songs are less repetitive.
you dont need to imagine, it still happens
I just wanna say im 20 years old now , born at 2000 and really love to hear all of bee gees song
@@karebushmarebu233 Actually it essentially NEVER happens today, and hasn't been happening for decades. Music died out decades ago unfortunately.
@@virginiaconner3340 Interestingly, I think it had to do with less formal schooling for these boys, which I think resulted in their creative geniuses being released early on.
The fact that a 20 year old kid can write such an amazing song with so poignant and introspective lyrics, is simply mind-blowing! Thankfully, Barry proved that he wasn't a flash in the pan, and the same goes for his brothers!
So many amazing songs and so many wonderful moments we were blessed to have delivered to us by the Gibb Brothers... I could never properly express the love, respect, admiration, and gratitude I feel I owe them...
And Robin wrote The Joke Is On Me when he was 19
Barry had been writing songs for years by this time, too.
Well said. 👏
The Bee Gees music is timeless
Absolutely timeless. How are you doing? Hope you are fine and staying safe out there?
and more...........
.... and hopeless
@@ericharrison7 Just now seeing this. Thank you and doing great. Hope all is well with you and also doing great.
@@Chapps1941 A little jealous are we?? Bee Gees could get number one hits back too back!! Barry Gibb and his Brothers were one of the best song writers of there Time. They were unstoppable!! And Barry Gibb is still writing songs!! Barry is Staying Alive!!!!😂😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Luv the song, luv how it brings me back to my childhood, luv luv luv the Bee Gees for creating and sharing their wonderful music with us❤❤❤
BG remains me my childhood and to the best movie ever " MELODY"
Barry Gibb is in the same Class as Dylan, Lennon and McCartney👌
Oh yes of course!!
😊❤🎹🎵🎼
I agree, but it wasn't just Barry on his own, it was three of them. Barry is considered the 2nd best songwriter of all times, but I think they should include Robin and Maurice in the top 10, they always wrote the hits together and it's kind of unfair. (even tho, all the first beegees songs were writen by Barry)
And Robin, please. 💖
BARRY IS STILL WRITING SEXY SONGS TO MEE ALWAYS IS MY SWEETHEART
@@pilarmartinez9753 - Yes, Robin wrote a lot of great solo songs like "Juliet", "Saved by the Bell", "Kathy's gone" and "Boys do fall in love" not to mention the later stuff he wrote like "Days of Wine and Roses", "Don't cry Alone", Etc.
UNDERRATED group of all time. We need a BIO PIC
Coming up soon on HBO
I've been saying the same thing...just like Queen's movie bio pic. Who could you even cast? Who's out there that's even gorgeous enough to play Barry??? HBO is a documentary.
@@bethsnyder8376 I'd rather a documentary than what they did with the Queen movie.
The Bee Gees, like many other significant groups of the modern era are impossible to do via a 2 hour movie.
@@PAlex-us4ov why don't you address this to the previous comment...I didn't say I prefer one over the other. I already watched the doc twice on the east coast and the west coast feed.
Love the Bee Gees, so great to hear this song on Walking Dead
Thank you Beegees...your talent and personalities make my day, every day...❤
Look at these guys Robin and Maurice are barely 16 and Barry 19 or 20 the future is looking very bright for the Gibb brothers in 1966..
johnny10301968 Barry was 18 in 1966
Philip Howard Barry was 20. He was born in 1946 so 19 turning into 20
AND Barry was married!!!!! We had no idea at the time. I heard about it years later.
@@allymayful Did it come as a crushing blow for you Ally?😉(smiles)☺... I know what a huge Barry fan you are!lol.
@@gloriamaryhaywood2217 Hi dear lady. No not really. Always thought of him more as my kid brother. Plus for me there was a big gap between me seeing them on the TV as kids, and then suddenly back with this hit record. What a moment it was!!! And to think he was married as well - at 18/19 - crazy! Feel a bit sad for the girl, tho' - him being career driven, moving her overseas, and having very little time for her - then him falling head over heals for another - who he obviously found time for.
3 daft brothers having FUN! Barry, very handsome, Maurice, a wonderful, underrated voice, Robin, a wonderful vibrato/tremulous voice! Bless his heart though, we say in Ireland 'he didn't have a step in his leg!' Couldn't dance for toffee! 😍. Loved them then, love them now! Even with Robins, very bad 'dad dancing'.
Wie habe ich es damals geliebt und ich liebe es heute noch ❤️
Simplemente maravillosos...❤
I find this song hard to listen to now, with 2 (3 really) gone. I suppose it's because it's a reminiscent number; it's the same with the Christmas trees were small song. I feel so sorry for Barry. Love 'em, always have, always will, no matter if pop, ballads or disco.
I feel the same way. I love their music but having watched two different documentaries of their life recently it really sinks in how special they are/were and they are almost gone.
@@guidedmeditation2396 'First of May'
Some of their songs make me cry, all these years later. Especially, To Love Somebody
@@doneestoner9945 I know. Did you happen to see where the Facebook ad on tv for "Dads With Daughters" used their song "To Love Somebody" for their promotion? And I was so happy to hear 'our boys' singing it and not a cover artist!!!😉
Perfect choice of a song!
I really love Slicks and Specks song.I have it on repeat.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The first song from the Bee Gees I heard was in the Netherlands where the song was number 1 in our hit parade.
And to this day I sometimes miss that song that got me started in the music. How far they have come with
their music, simply genius. God Bless them.
Robin and Maurice were 16 when this was filmed. Let that sink in...
Barry wrote Morning Of My Life, 15yo.
ClintexL2b IT DOES THAT IS WHY I LOOOOOOOOOOOVE THEM😂😂😂😂😂😂
Michael Jackson was like 10 when he was doing this stuff
@Red Leader Playz BARRY IS THE MAN I PRAY HE IS ALRIGHT I SAW HIM ON A TV SPECIAL SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER THE BEST DISCO MOVIE EVER MADE IT WAS ON REELZ😁😁😁
Bad Cornflakes look up the brothers Gibb. Robin & Maurice are like 8. It’s not a competition.
Loved this song since 1966 and will always love the Bee Gees till I die. RIP Andy, Maurice and Robin. Anita Jackson, SA
Have never heard of this until reading about their recording history. Thank you for posting this.
This video is genius.
Did you know that the video of "Spicks and Specks" by The Bee Gees was featured on Spicks and Specks Season 1 Episode 39 Aired November 2nd 2005 with Clare Bowditch, Adam Rozenbachs, Glenn Shorrock (The Twilights, Little River Band) and Hamish Blake (Hamish & Andy) 🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶
My dad was 3 when this was a song! He shared it with me and all of their songs
2:16 oh my gosh, I don't think so when Sir Barry almost try to kiss Robin while his singing 😁😁😁
This music video is black and white that time because super amazing and talented. Tribute to the Bee Gees because only Sir Barry is the last Bee Gee survivor.
Thank you for sharing with this video. God bless you.
This was also a very innovative video, for its day, wasn't it? They say ABBA was the landmark group for video promotion of their recordings, but this was 10 yrs earlier - even before the Beatles stopped touring, and used film to promote their new releases.
buenisimo video
Yes, very innovative for it's time! But also, I have heard it was part of a Cessna commercial !?
+allymayful yep. ....they were so cool... young rascals just full of ideas!! Love 'em
lyndy ma You got it in a nutshell - rascals!
allymayful AGAIN
I first heard this song on the radio while living in Australia about 10 years ago. Just like the Bee Gees, I too returned to the UK, but this song will always bring back fond memories of living Down Under, and all the amazing people I met.
Although they moved back to the UK in the late 60s, from the mid-late 1970s they actually spent most of their time living in the USA.
Greetings from Adelaide, South Australia. 🖐️
House of the rising sun always reminds me of oz. I used to drink in a bar called the wool shed in Cairns and the owner used to stand on his head, on a chair, and play this song once a night. It was what the bar was known for. 2001
Why did you do such an act of self harm?
Robin would have made an excellent actor too. He was a very artsy type!
Louisa Ti - True. Loved his video of "Like a fool". He could have been a good actor.
I agree with you 100%
I so love Robin
I agree your comment
Barry god bless you...
The music you and your brothers wrote..
The years..
Thank god for your talent that was used in a positive message
A great bunch of guys,and sooo cute,too.😁
That’s absolutely true. How are you doing? Hope you are fine and staying safe out there?
I’m sure I am the exception but this is my favorite Bee Gees song
My mom gifted me her vinyl collection... i played one of her MANY beegees records (dont get me wrong, ive always loved the beegees) i was minding my bussiness, doing some webbrowsing, when this song came on.... idk man, it hit me hard... i LOVE this song!
I love Bee Gees.
Why the hell don't the DJs o
Play ▶️ this song on the radio? This is a great song 👌👌👌👌👍👌👍
The fabulous Gibb. Forever. 💖💖💖
My favorite Bee Gees video and one of my favorite songs, top 10!
I adore this music and the Beegees
They had been on Australian TV for all their teenage years and never reached a number 1 hit. On the way to England they discovered they finally had their no 1 hit with this song.
This song always makes me smile but now tinged with sadness that Robin and Maurice are no longer here.
I was totally enchanted the moment the piano beat came in.
Robin is sooooooooo CUTE AHHHHHH 😍😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Jennifer Elizabeth - Love his facial expressions on the plane beside Barry.
Man do I love this song brings me back to when life was so much more simple
man wey she his gumony
You are so right 😁
Don't we all of us wish we could go back
2:17 I love the way how Robin look at Barry it looks so adorable 😘
So many awesome songs over the decades but I think this is still my fave♥♥♥
We're so lucky they got to make this promotional film. I thought at first it was just some early footage of them uploaded to go with the song, but they actually mouth the lyrics so it was made for the song. They were only on the small independent label Spin Records, so they must have thought a lot of them to do this for their first big hit. The talent was all there already.
Borthers Gibbb & Bee Gees = my guilty pleasure.
I don't feel guilty loving them and there music.
The Bee Gees, simply the Greatest Musical Group Ever!!.
Greatest ever? They certainly had some great singles in the 60s. There was this other band called The Beatles that wasn't too bad.
@@yourtubesteak This is true
@@yourtubesteak yeah they aren’t bad but not popular like the bee gees.
@@leonchalita2169 Not popular? The Beatles are literally the most popular band in history.
@@leonchalita2169 you off your meds? Led Zeppelin, Beatles, Stones, Who, Animals, Cold Chisel, Supertramp, Pink Floyd, Midnight Oils, Moody Blues, Eagles, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Cranberries, Fleetwood Mac and many more are better than the Bee Gees (& I'm an Aussie😀😛😝😜🤪😂🤣)
Love the grainy B&W film, captures the era very well. An all time fan favorite song!
Spicks & Specks was my favorite song of the Bee Gees in 1967 while I was 3rd year in college. The song makes me feel young again. Thank you RUclips.
I didn't realize until lately that they even had this song in 66. I started being a fan in 67. I was all of 8 years old. Barry fascinated me. Of course, so did Bill Cowsill. My first young crushes.
本物の名曲。
メロディー大好き
nostalgia for when the show aired. i would finish watching abc for kids at 7 and this was on straight after. good days
Nice song they was having fun, Maurice and robin each had one girl on their arm but Barry had two..nice see them having fun.the way robin looked when Barry asked where are the girls. That made me smile.I will always love the bee gees and Andy. Thanks for posting and sharing.afa n.a.JJ.
I can see this again, again and again. After that I am overwhelmed, would like to live in that time and yet I am in a really great mood.
Thank you so much for this song.
ホントにいい曲。素晴らしい！
Djdudu Did ウォーキングデッドで聞いてハマりました！いい曲ですよね！
This was their first ever number one and this became number one in New Zealand
This was BG first song that I heard x years ago and fell in love with their music! Unforgettable!
Yes, this is an outstanding song!
For me too. It was their first #1 hit in Australia. So very exciting until l heard they had moved back to the UK. Broke my heart.
I love you, Robin!
EVERYBODY LOVES ROBIN AND MY MAN IS BARRY FOREVER
I Love Robin Gibb 🌹🌹🌹❤️💯 too
I always love robin too
Me too ♥️
Great track had it first time round
I used to sing Karaoke to this at a Coffs Harbour pub between 91-92. It was (and still is) my favourite Bee Gees song.
the genius and talent is unbelievable i didnt realize they were this good before the disco era insane
Since a few months I know from who this song is. Don’t know why but it’s my favorite Bee Gees Song. Everything perfect with it
the talent of the Bee Gee's brought me here and this was released by Capitol Records my favorite record company by far
it's so sad that two of them died to soon they had so much music to give
So sweet the BOYS!!!!!!
Absolutely adorable!!!
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE ALL 4 OF THESE BROTHERS, BEAUTIFUL MUSIC BEAUTIFUL VOICES AND GREAT TALENT. REST IN PEACE ANDREW, MAURICE AND ROBIN. THESE GUYS HERE ARE SOME OF THE WORLDS GREATEST MUSICIANS. I SAW BARRY IN A Recent VIDEO AND HE IS STILL VERY HANDSOME AND STILL SINGS AMAZING!
Great to see in the description it actually reached number 1 in my country New Zealand. I love the the Bee Gees.
This had to be a fun video to make. They look like they truly enjoy each other's company.
ウォーキングデッドの中で流れてて、初めて聞いたのにどこか懐かしいような感じがしてSiri に調べてもらいました。何度も聞くうちに好きな曲の１つになりました🌈❤️
Yes. I remember even as a 8/9 year old..going into my sister's room and listening to her albums. I remember the Bee Gees album she had...it was the yellow album with the 4 of them....the brothers and the other guy, I think he was the drummer. The album was, "The Best of the Bee Gees." Loved that album.
It’s one of my favourite. How are you doing? Hope you are fine and staying safe out there?
so deep, so iconic
WOW THIS IS GREAT MUSIC FOR BEE GEES FANS EVERYWHERE AND I LOVE BARRY SINGING THIS SONG SO SWEETLY WITH ROBIN AND MAURICE IN 1966
Early Songs of The Bee Gees from 1960 to 1970 playlist. I dedicated to all my best friends workers in Everest Textile in Forest City, NC USA from Kenneth Ellenboro, NC USA…
Loved this, but for some reason I'd forgotten it..... then last night I watched an episode of The Walking Dead.....!
I like their style,so simple,very catchy.you make me happy,if you are still alive robin and Maurice
they were teenagers by then and already had great voices!!!
+Ovis Musmón es cierto grandes voces las voces de los bee gees cuando los bee gees hicieron esta cancion andy era una criatura quien le hubiese dicho a esa criatura inocente que años mas tarde conoceria a una vibora ponzoñosa que le arruinaria la vida y que por su causa andy se dejaria morir
WELCOME TO THE 60s!
Bee Gees Never Die
I agree 😁
Robin got a little too close to Barry, LOL. His reaction was hilarious.
Yes I can't stop laughing between Sir Barry and Robin 😂😂😂
I thought that as well until I realized they were in a little plane. Also, Barry only sang in this song.
Aparte de ser buenos músicos también son buenos actores,muy simpáticos ❤chicos traviesos los amo..
For the aviation buffs, the takeoff is from Hoxton Park airport on runway 34 and the Cessna distributor looks like Hangar 400 (??) at Bankstown Airport. They're in the western suburbs of Sydney, NSW, Australia. Hoxton Park was one of thousands of emergency landing strips built during 1942 in Australia. It was used by light aircraft and was a real haven for wildlife until redeveloped into warehouses after 2008. It lay just east of the M7 near Cowpasture Road. The latter takes its names from "The Cowpastures", a location where early British settlers found cattle that had escaped from Sydney Cove shortly after the NSW penal colony was established. Bankstown Airport is Sydney's main light aircraft airfield and is on a site cleared and developed during the depression for job creation.
@Clair Parkes Wow. Awesome bit of info.
@Clair Parkes grew up next door to the airport in Georges Hall, rellies still live there today. I remember getting chased around by Security in the Yellow Jeeps when we got into the parked planes ;)
The Gibb brothers themselves lived in Brisbane for many years
@Clair Parkes They often say it themselves - "we don't dance" which is why their being associated with the Disco movement is so funny!
I take that this the very songs that they started with I love it loads
I had only heard this a few times and was searching for it in vain...then they played it on TWD. I immediately started an ugly cry. Lol!
Fantastic brothers forever. 💝💝💝
Perfect closing song....
Why was this never played on the Radio ? It sounds like a huge hit to me.....
Rick Grimes, the myth, the beard, the LEGEND! Hot Rick 4 Evah!
Gracias.gracias.Beegees por tanto QEPD los amo por haberme dado tanto.
cracking track Manchester's Beatles !
@flip inheck Lesley and Andy (the eldest and youngest) were born in Manchester. Barry, Robin and Maurice were born in Douglas. Their father, Hugh, was from Manchester and their mother, Barbara, was from Bolton.
They're about as Manx as they are Australian.
What a great piano playing with me.😊💚🌹what a beautiful song.xs lg❤
The "piano' was Mo 🥀😔♥️🌹🌹🌹
