Robin Gibb is really the one with the best voice of all the bee gees, he can get to very high tones with his real voice, not like the ugly falsete from barry.
Why do these guys of G4 have to sing when Robin is there? My 2nd most favourite song in the world can only be sung by one person - Barry Gibb. Sorry guys. Good try though, Robin.
I love his vocal with this song, once he sings, he voice just sang so brilliently from these four poeple, you know the differences instantly how beautifully his voice is.
Wow, listen Robin's voice, it shines over all of them billiantly, but , the others cannot over shadow his voice, it is amazing and is stunning, babe, Oh Robin, you are the real one for the song, not them !!!!!
como se presta robin a cantar con esos insipidos sin talento creo que no esta bien que un señoron como robin cante con principiantes es una ofensa a su carrera y a su talento
This is such a gorgeous song. I first heard it on their box set, and it's been one of my favorites ever since. Thanks for posting this performance! :-)
Absolutely beautiful! I first heard the album version on MySpace, and instantly loved it, but truth be told, he's always been my favorite Bee Gees member anyway.
great song and done brilliantly by G4 .Seems G4 were holding back to allow Robin take the song at his pace. These guys can sing anything. You should hear their version of bohemian Rhapsody The original will always be the best but this definitely runs a good second
Wow...my stomach is turning listening to this. Run Robin....Run boy!! This is a true tradgedy. It was such a good song when the Brothers Gibb sang it together, now it has been besmirched by these ham-and-eggers!
Well the music buying public and that crowd of several thousand disagreed, it got early Bee Gees back in the charts. (Or not due to a technical problem)
And Robin sounds amazing and probably enjoyed doing this bit of harmony, it certainly sounds like it, what a voice.
Beautiful harmony!!!! I'm not up on who the band is, but they harmonize beautifully, especially for this song and Robin Gibb's voice. I really liked it.
i was going to ask who the hell G4 were, but i repeal and just say I hope Robin Gibb never makes this mistake again. The fans of G4 have no idea what they are witnessing. Its actually sad.
Well this single would of got to 6 in the UK charts,(like the album) but it was expelled due to a advertising cock up, this wasn't a mistake I say.;)Robin far outshines G4 but that was entirely expected by everyone because he is unique and incredible, the best.
Its a good record, and a great chance to play the Royal Albert Hall in front of a sell out crowd.;)
I agree, that Robin vibrato is like a depth charge, incredible, I haven't heared him sing First of May in his solo set lists, he really should, and release his own version on his next album this November!:D
G4 were winners of a TV show called The X Factor..and went on to relese an Album..this particular piece wit Robin Gibb was released on the G4 & Friends Album..I hope this answer helps?..
there's negative comments on this video. robin only joined another group on stage to perform one off his songs. it's not like all the reoginal recordings have been destroyed and only this video is availbale for hearing this song. it's a compliment to be asked to use ones song.
robin could have delivered this song better by himself. there's a certain way this song has to be sung, it being very sentimental and personal... lulu and maurice's version of this song was way better than this.
In his last few years on earth Maurice sobered up and became, perhaps, the most sensible, and endearing of the brothers. You can't fault Robin's voice, though. The song most associated with the breakup is Robin's solo tour de force "Saved by the Bell", --the epitome of distinctive Bee Gee sound. That song is definitely worthy of posting. Too bad the only SBTB anybody under age 50 remembers is the prepubescent TV series.
Great .. Love G4 So Much x && Miss Them Even More! If I'm Honest, I <3 The Song, But Don' t Like Robin Gibb Much. But Jon Mike Matt & Ben Will Forever Be In My Heart! <3 '=]
This version is bad. Folks, This song is about a broken-hearted man....much like Paul McCartney's "Yesteday." Can you imagine how poor "Yesterday" would sound if sung by a group of men? These kinds of emotional ballads only work when sung by a single man....
one more thing...those G4 guys sing perfectly, but they don't have the unique characteristics of Robin's voice, this video really shows that. Robin Gibb simply has a voice for the ages.
I never get tired of hearing new versions of this song. The youtube post of Maurice singing with Lulu brings tears to my eyes. This version is terrific too! Thanks for posting!!!
I agree; The soaring, neo-operatic treatment seems at odds with such a plaintive song, but I certainly appreciate the effort, just as I love hearing Robin sing. Thanks so much for the post!
