"First of May" is also a great song. The banter between Lulu and Tom Jones makes this fantastic! I'm going to see if someone has uploaded the entire show.
Barry Gibb says in the Bee Gees documentary that he would give up all the group's hits if he could just have his brothers Robin and Maurice back. Well, Barry, your brothers and you are immortal because of those hits, which only the Bee Gees could have delivered so beautifully! God bless you three--and Andy too.
"We don't say goodbye" from their best ever song "Immortality" as so aptly sung by Celine Dion in a tearjerker video production before their losses with the exception of Andy. RIP Maurice, Robin and René. Truer words never spoken.
They wrote some of the most beautiful music ever and carried those songs with three of the most uniquely beautiful voices I’ve ever heard. I love these guys dearly. Don’t know where all that sadness came from..
I first listened Robin's a started a joke in 1969 when I was 17 now I am 71 ,the everlasting melody is still as vivid as before.. Thank U the Gibbs brothers.. Ur songs have enriched my life all these years
Really absolutely awful are you deaf he looks and sounds ridiculous are you mental he is absolutely awful the only way they're ever going to shut up is when there dead oh that's happened thank God bloody awfull freeks
THE BEE GEES ARE STILL IN MY HEART FOREVER BARRY KNOWS ME WE MET IN 1977 WHEN I WAS 14 AND HE AND I DATED WE WERE EATING OUT AT DIFFERENT RESTURANTS WE HAD FUN EATING TOGETHER

Robin’s beautiful wobbling voice strangles my heart and shakes the tears out with every wavering shake of his vibrato. Never been another singer quite like him.
I'm a big big fan of Robin, I started a joke is one of my favorite songs of them since childhood! I'm 58 now, this song still sounds as beautiful as yesterday ＆ brings back so many memories.
We are still listening to their beautiful songs in 2024 The Bee Gees forever We Love those men all three sang so beautifully. We will always be listening to their songs.
My brother Phil and myself fell into the job of a lifetime, full time proprieters for the summer of 1975 at Wells Street Beach on the southern tip of Lake Michigan on the east border of Gary Indiana , what a summer. We had to wake up early to bury the dead alewives before the crowds came and I would put 10$ of quarters in the juke box and play this song over and over and over ........😢
@@TheBrownlj See here you are again, not accepting other people's preferences. Maybe it's you that should just scroll past positive comments about anyone except Barry, I'm certain he doesn't need you or anyone else disrespecting his beloved brothers.
@lindajames978 didn't say anything negative about Robin at all just said it was my least favourite song. It's your problem how you interpret that, not mine.
Robin Gibb your voice is amazing. It always melt my heart and soul. We won't forget you and your brothers. You will always be remembered. Rest in peace beside our Heavenly Father. 🙏
My best friend and I were likely the first kids in town to discover the Bee Gees. First album is my all time favorite Bee Gees album. I first played "To Love Somebody" for him and he was mesmerized by the thumping bass line between verses. I played guitar and he asked me if I could teach that part to him. He was so enthusiastic that he went to a music store and bought a cheap bass guitar for $89.00 so I could teach him. In a month he learned to play well enough that we started a little three piece basement band and started playing a few small gigs. Over the decades we were the biggest fans ever. We played their hits, mixed in with Black Sabbath, GFR, James Gang, Hendrix. Quite a contrast, but the audience enjoyed it.
he was my favourite singer. I loved the Bee Gees. I was very sad to hear he had died. Seemed such a gente soul. A very beautiful song. It tells a lot about sensitivity.
We owe a lot to the Brothers Gibb, we thank them from the bottom of our hearts for us to listen to their Songs and Music. God bless all the Brothers Gibb. Perhaps we will meet at Heavens Door. Peter Keane.
These were beautiful and touching songs. Simple, melodic, lovely. The hair, the style, all 1960’s, so that does not matter to the lens of time looking backward. What does is their incredible talent and harmonies that was such a gift to all of them, and to us all so many years later.
Thanks for posting this wonderful footage which may otherwise have been lost forever. The 60s was a wonderful decade for music and there's not a day passes without me listening to it.
I remember me and my little brother along with my mom and had just gone to the movies to see Rachell Welch in 1 Million years BC...we' were driving back to the house in Ipswitch in England...and this started playing just as we approach the house...my dad just kept driving until the song was over...amazing what sticks in your head...life is good.
Robin was the epitamy of a masterful voice. We shall never know all the greatness he could have achieved. He sings and we all sit up and take notice. A life-changing experience. Gone too soon.
1st of May was a beautiful song. Who knew, that years later long after Lulu and Maurice married & divorced, that they would reunite and sing that same song together as a duet!! Beautiful!! You could tell there was still love between, both of them!! Thank You, for the memories!!
@sharonmoore9934 That was so stunning. That performance took my breath away and had me in tears. It was really beyond touching and to think that it was within a few months and beautiful Mo was gone 😭💔
'Joke' will be remembered always. One of the greatest songs of all time. And robin's vocals, masterful perfection. It belongs in the music hall of fame, along with robin gibb.
*Boomer here: I sincerely hope Gen Z takes away one big lesson from this song. No machine, no computer, no bot will ever top human talent, passion, and creativity. Machines and computers, they can do many things humans can't do. But not the arts, not [real] music. Never lose real music. In a way, you already have. Rap isn't music, it's talking. 60s, 70s, and 80s... that was real music. It changes your mood, your mind, and your thinking. Never give up real music, nothing replaces it.*
Being that I was born mid 50's I know what you're saying but I'll be honest, I just love music. It's subjective imo. Nirvana, James Taylor, Jelly Roll, Elvis, Jackson 5 (RIP Michael) Coolio (gangster paradise*) Nat KIng Cole, Tchaikovsky, Amy Winehouse etc etc. I appreciate that there are Artists for all my moods, mind & thinking.
Another boomer here (81 years young). I agree. I loved Elvis, Nat King Cole, etc., when I was young, but the BeeGees are my all-time favorite for their genius songwriting and beautiful harmonizing voices. The music of the 70s was especially phenomenal, with Foreigner, Journey and far too many more groups and singers to name. Also the 80s. No computers, no autotune, just passionate songwriting and pure instrumental and vocal talent.
For those who don't know Maurice Gibb was married to Lulu for four years from 1969 - 1973. Hence the laughter whenever she mentions his name to Tom Jones at the beginning.
At least Mo got some attention here.... diligently and beautifully playing the piano out of the spotlight. Thx Lulu. They were fantastic for 5+ decades. ❤ Always missed.
Barry Gibb, Tom Jones and Cliff Richards the only 3 male singers who sound as good now as they did when they were younger. (Robin and Maurice if still with us, I have no doubt would be in the same category also).
I LOVE their music as much as I loved the Mamas and Papas they were both sensational. And there's the Beatles, and more! Wow, we had it really good music wise in the 60's.
Bee Gees are an extremely rare exception of vocalists that sound even better when the accompaniment drops out. Normally that reveals weaknesses. But if fine and startling quality is what your voice is really about, it reveals that too.
OH!!! MY!!! What voices. Every time I hear them (since 1971 when I was 8 going on 9) they are like a slab of butter on a hot ear of corn. You put it on and wait for it to melt as you salivate in anticipation.
Who is still listening to this in 2024 ? I am, its a classic ❤
"First of May" is also a great song. The banter between Lulu and Tom Jones makes this fantastic! I'm going to see if someone has uploaded the entire show.

Ur songs have enriched my life all these years
Me too! I remember trying to figure out what the song meant then!
It’s been a wild ride
the magic of this song can never be forgotten
Well said and well put !
I do not think we will ever hear harmonies like that again.
I believe that somewhere in the world, there are people who feel the same emotions that I feel when I listen to masterpieces like this song.
I’m one of those people 👍
I'm here too.
So am I
Amo amo amo❤❤Robin Robin Robin❤❤
Yes me in the Netherlands
Oh what a magnificent group with the most unforgettable songs. I'm here in August 2024, in , Cape Town, still with tears at these guys!!
As simple as it sounds, Ive always thought the song "I've started a joke" is one of the most beautiful songs ever
Agree
I never get tired of listening to Robin sing lead vocals. Such a beautiful voice.
Indubitably !
Was Robin their lead singer in the 60's ? Then Barry in the 70's ?
@@ayf1983 Barry and Robin were both Lead singers. It seems like Barry sung the majority of the songs, but Robin sang some great ones.
@@ayf1983it was always the frontman who wrote the Song. Barry wrote most of the songs.
Robin's voice is pure magic.
I totally agree !!
There's nothing magic about vibrato.

There will never be a group like the Bee Gees. again. They were, and still are, the best of the best, then, now, and forever
U are so correct never will such a group exist

I Started A Joke is such a sad song. I love it though. And Robin’s voice is so beautiful.
❤✅✅✅
Robin has the best voice.
Indeed.
A voice loss to the world
Robin’s beautiful wobbling voice strangles my heart and shakes the tears out with every wavering shake of his vibrato. Never been another singer quite like him.
Wobbling is actually called vibrato.
@@edthomas8486 yes, indeed.. that is why I said “with every wavering shake of his vibrato”
I like the way he does Massachusetts too. Think it is my favorite of his.
As with the Beatles, each had a unique vocal quality to add to their distinctive group sound.
Robin's voice was unique and beautiful 😍
I am 68 and this music takes me back to my childhood days, Such talent with no auto tune equipment
I miss Robin. His voice is so hauntingly beautiful. May you sing with the angels up there.
Barry Gibb the only one living in 2023?! B Gees are and were of the greatest group! .❤️🌺🌺🌺❤️

The first bee gee song I ever heard was robin singing Massachusetts.
It blew me away - and I’ve been a fan of this group ever since.

@Frances Hunt 100%
Nope on both fronts
Looks and vocal talent are subjective !😊😊
Their voices together were everything.
@joycheek6756 no he wasn't , lots of us ladies prefer Robin and not just for his voice.
Words of this world can not truly define the Bee Gees!
I miss robin so so much when he died I cried for two days he is my hero trust me.
If you didn't get to grow up with The Bee Gees, I'm sorry for you it was great✌️✌️✌️
RIP Robin such an angelic voice, truly missed 2023 ❤

Surely you're not serious
The Bee Gees could sing Beatles songs, but the Beatles could not sing The Bee Gees
Now how about legendary status
Wow. Back-to-back my two favorite Bee Gees songs. Their songs never get old.
There voices are just magical? There music will always be in our hearts!❤ and thats no Joke!😊
