  • There she is with hers' & Here I am with out mine. And still I remain hopelessly devoted to HER

  • Andy Gibb the bes t!!!

  • Sometimes it is very hard to believe that 1978 and 2011 are part of the same reality.

  • Perfect. Thanks VistaLasVegas!

  • My kind of of music.

  • And the very best part is that is live! All of it. How absolutely f**kin' priceless was this performance. Just a timeless and treasured part of my life. This is the reason YouTube was invented.

  • @claptons1 Your not thinking very big, or morralistically either. Again, a billion would buy you anything. Health, protection (because of privacy), anything....to turn a BILLION down is just plain stupid in my opinion no matter how ya look at it.

  • I miss shows like this, variety specials, even just plain variety shows.

  • props to the backing band for flawlessly changing songs, sounds, time signatures and overall just incredible LIVE musicianship by REAL musicians... not many can even claim that anymore... such a sin...

  • This is pretty fantastic!

  • Bjorn has the best moment of them all: at 6:45 he's squished between the two most beautiful women in the history of pop music. Lucky bastard.

  • Andy is so gorgeous like an angel.

  • love this.. all my favorites all together..

  • ONJ is stunning. thanks for posing!!!

  • I heard somwhere that ABBA was offered one BILLION dollars to tour again, and ofcourse, like any rational humans, they turned it down. Wish I had enough cash to turn down a billion bucks. Kinda makes me pissed. I mean, couldent they have done one last tour, made the fans happy, then at the end, if they dident want the money, give it to Africa and give them ALL water or something?? :) I mean common. You could build a UFO for a billion I bet. For fuck sake ABBA, think BIG.

  • @sralmy I think they sacrificed enough of their personal lives for years (at great personal cost to their relationships, etc), and figure no price can be put on their privacy (once you lose it, the only way to regain it is to end on a low note). The growing hype/superficiality of recent decades wouldn't encourage them to return to the huge spotlight either....... :-)

  • @sralmy A billion? I'd take that with a grain of salt. That's a lot even for a Bill Gates or Warren Buffet to dole out.

  • @MegaBorodino

    Googles a wonderful thing  :) Try putting in "Abba billion to tour again" and see what comes up. I think you'll be surprised what that grain of salt will get you.....

  • @MegaBorodino The offer was for ten million each for one hundred shows. It almost undoubtably was not for all one hundred shows worth in advance. Probably it never got to details, because ABBA is too smart to go back on stage thirty years out of their experation date.

  • It´s fantastic,only lacked the Bee Gees then this performance!!!

  • Oh I just love the song Hopelessly Devoted To You and I love ABBA!!!!! Olivia is so beautiful! Her hair is so pretty! And I adore Anni-Frid Lyngstad! She is so adorable!

  • man oh man, Frida, Agnetha, and Olivia in the same video! where was this video when i was 13 and seriously in love with all three :-) thanks for the 2 part medley VistaLasVegas, great memories.

  • It still breaks my heart that Andy left us too early

  • I loved abba and olivia newton john, but i LOVED andy gibb. he was a beautiful young man and as a young gay kid i was totally mesmerized by him. keep your hater comments to yourself... i dont care.

  • To anyone who was there when this was filmed......I HATE YOU! LOL!

  • WOOOWWW!!

    

  • すばらしい!

  • ô época boa. pena que ai eu ainda estava no deposito do meu pai...hihihihih

  • Ohhhhhh I so miss him...

  • @uretitibeach ME TOO!!!!

  • How time flies us by so fast.... capture with both hands, before its gone... Great medley VLV...

  • if this kind of music was played todaty you'd never pull me away from the tv.. wouldn't wanna miss a minute

  • If this music was new today it would cut trough ANYTHING like a hot knife in butter. This is music never to be surpassed. Simply ever lasting gold. 100%

  • AAAH HOLY 70'S.... GOOD MUSIC, GOOD PEOPLE, ABBA, NO AIDS...

  • Amazing! My beautiful Andy, Abba and Olivia together. Real talent without auto-tune!

  • I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!1

  • Doesn't Andy look like a singer who was caught into a public men's room asking for solicitation?

  • Olivia is beautiful!

    Thank you. (^-^)

  • Beautiful people with the beautiful music!

  • Olivia was a well singing barbie doll back then :)

  • You just can't find this talent today.

  • olivia is beutiful

  • I am an american but i love australia and the singers there.

  • I am just in AWE that Olivia sang with Andy and Abba... I wish I was THAT fly on that wall, How cool would that have been ;0)

  • Andy is gone :( How much does he sound like Barry ? What a loss.

    Of the 2 greatest super groups of all time (Beatles, ABBA ) only one can reunite it's original members in 2011.....please ABBA ??? Olivia is perhaps the greatest solo female singer ever in my opinion and she is an Aussie :)

  • AUSSIE PRIDE

    

  • know it will never happen even if Andy G is still around (RIP) and feel sad that ABBA has gone their separate ways...will pay US$3000 for a pair of tickets to watch them "live" anywhere in London, Tokyo, New York, Melbourne, Buenos Aires, Shanghai, etc. U have a DVD of them?

  • "Take a Chance on Me" leading into "Shadow Dancing" leading into "Hopeless Devoted"...by the original singers...at the same time on the same stage... assisting one another with backup vocals as necessary... I'm ... I'm just at a loss...

    Where the F has this video been all my life?!?!?!

  • @ChristopherDrum I can watch this......an its the nearest thing to aTime capsule

  • @ChristopherDrum First time I've watched it, too. Amazing, eh?

    

  • @ChristopherDrum ...no lip sync here either!!!!!

  • @Ramona817 Heck no! That's the REAL DEAL™!

  • @ChristopherDrum lol! I totally agree w/u. this vid has everything. the world without disco and andy gibb... what a loss.

  • the good old days of the supershow they dont make em like that no more too bad the three of them together was magic i remember this when it aired i love it love abba andy an d olivia best time in the usa love beutiful music america it felt like it not no more this new crap cant beat the good old days of real music thanks guys for the memories awesome just awesome

  • I was a child in the 70s, but grew up around older sisters who appreciated music! These 2 videos (parts 1 and 2) bring me back.. AWESOME MUSIC! SO MUCH TALENT!!! All we can do is buy their greatest hits nowadays! MISS THIS STUFF!!

  • Only the best of music!

  • love andy's teeth

  • how lovely is liv. completly changed now. and i don't only mean older.

  • Great stuff, thanks for posting!

  • Sono veramente bravi tutti questi grandi vocalisti..! Di una grandisima qualità e talento...Video eccezionale veramente..Complimenti...!!!

  • Beautiful Olivia forever.

  • It cracks me up that from a distance Andy Gibb looks a bit like Michael Beck (Swan from the Warriors movie). Oh wait, he was in Xanadu....

    Great music. My radio stays on a local 70's station and I hear all this stuff on a daily basis, I just pray it doesn't go off the air!

  • @mantis914 I envy you for having a local 70's station playing this kind of music. Any stations around here I can't listen to more than 10 minutes cause I get annoyed by all this fake sounding 'modern' crap they play.

  • I feel they are still punching in prices on registers and I'm watching ABC in black & white.

  • @ghostinthemean lmao I feel like Chips will be on any minute

  • .....AND THIS IS LIVE.

  • i want to put olivia newton-john in my mouth

  • I want to die right now and be taken by an angel to a heaven where only this kind of music its played.

  • @redstar127 The time when playback was not an option... I miss you good artists!!!!!!!!! (Today's artists cannot be called artists... they're just crap (with some exceptions...))

  • Amazing how they share the limelight, everbody seems so comforable singing along with the others. This is truly wonderfull Great clips!

  • wish they would have the BEE GEEs here as well

  • Magnificent. I've just listened to ONJ from the concert in Santiago 151110. She still has the voice and beat me, if not many women would like to look that good at age 42......and she's 62!!!!!!

  • awesome,awesomw,awesomw.....wh­at a collection...brings back big memories...thanks

  • Makes me want to bow down and do the Wayne's World "We're not worthy" thing. 6 amazing, incredible talents together on one stage how incredible it must have been to be in that audience

  • I like 2:42 Benny's dance:D

  • Those were the days my frens , we thot they never end :)

  • This was the show Great Talent...

  • Andy Gibb was like all the Bee Gees in one. None of the Bee Gees could sing as good solo as Andy.

  • OMG!! Standing ovation!!!!! I love those 3 groups!!

  • Andy Gibb died on March 10 1988. He just turned thirty.

  • Wow!!! The best of the 70's combined. My gave group, female singer, and male singer in one package. Can't beat it. Thanx whoever posted this.

  • Can you imagine being in the audience for THIS??? Wow...!

  • Just think we could have had a Barry Jr. for years. I wish he was alive to take Maurice's roll. He always said he would love the be a BeeGee. What a shame. A broken heart took him from us.

  • Lots of boys and men had a crush on olivia in the 70s and 80s. Even more after Grease.

  • ABBA did pretty great with these medleys considering they spoke no English!

  • ABBA I LOVE YOU!!!!

  • When I heard a child say "Mamma Mia" the show or movie and didn't know where this amazing music comes from these amazing artists. I was young but it was a great time for music!

  • @babylo70 70s music is truly fantastic.

  • His daughter looks just like him. Beautiful!

  • All those who were present at the filming of this were very lucky people, to look back and think what a moment it was, I only wish I was there

  • Olivia was and im sure still is a very beautiful woman.

  • I never knew such a thing existed. This has to be the greatest medley ever.

  • @dbraun2001 Indeed,it would have been nice to see Karen Carpenter in this performance,don't you think?

  • More please @ VistaLasVegas

  • this is what you call talent..unlike these days talents have to show their ass instead of voice..

  • long time ago don't needed ass, just voice

  • This woman right here is my dream date......^-^

  • Wow, someone said Andy kinda looks like Heath Ledger...I think he does! Weird. And no one today could wear a hot pink body suit and look that hot!

  • What a great show to see all of my favorite artistes together. Thanks for uploading.

  • Great performance Andy !! R.I.P

  • She sounds fantastic here. Not a note out of place.

  • those people had no idea at that time how lucky they were to be in that show,I didn't see this tv show before when I was growing up,I guess I missed it. Cool!

  • gibb looks kinda like heath ledger

  • dear Kinjip ,thank you very much for this wonderful sharing !

    beautiful song !!!

    SYL

  • wow, such an interesting mix. for us, young, it's something special. thanks for sharing it with us.

  • He look like his brothers; at least Barry. He got the same smile...

  • Wow! I didn't see this show as a teen, but here are three of my favourite singers/groups all in one night! Thanks for the memories, I appreciate the trip back in time. :D

  • Benny is a teddy bear!

  • Benny is so cute at 2:38!

  • Andy had all his wanted.. Talent.. Looks.. But Drugs banished them all..

  • If I was Gay..I would.....god given talent...missed.

  • Andy was a DOLL!! Such a tragic loss to the music industry. Can't believe he's been gone over 20 years now!

  • Benny is musicgenius,and he is so happy when Andy sing a souldisco song, it´s a great clip,I love the down under folks to have abba at there hearts !!

  • Amazing!

    xoxo

    The Clarences

  • hey andy gibb is no joke this guy has some talent.the black girls singing backup are gettin down too.

  • wat a shame the hair and make up ruined a natural beauty in onj.

  • this are the real singers! Live! Olivia is still the best!

  • Andy sounds and looks exactly like his brother Barry Gibb, if there were more Gibb brothers they probely had talent too, R,I.P Andy + Maurice

  • There were only 4 Gibb brothers, but their elder sister Lesley briefly joined The Bee Gees on a part-time basis in '69 when Robin took a year out of the band. She had a good voice, but she left show business soon afterwards and returned to Australia.

  • I know there were only brother and Leslie, but did not know she joined Barry and mo for a while, Leslie is on one of the photo,s on a viedo clip with the 3 beegees, no Andy would have been nice to see them alll togethr, Most people don,t even know the BeeGees have a sister ;-)

  • What a talent singer i appreciate in this video.

    Thanks for uploading

  • GREAT

  • amazing ...

  • Thanks to this format, we are able to once again witness the finest assembly of talent in the 20th century, and I dare say, probably better than anything the 21st century has to offer.

  • Olivia looks like an angel here. She is such a sweetheart of a person. Met her once. Andy is greatly missed. Gibb Brothers were like no other..and Abba...speaks for themselves... Fantastic

  • Bee Gees and Andy were great but so overplayed at that time with Saturday Night Fever, Duets, Solo, just got to much. Saturday Night Fever and later MTV changed music forever ending the singer songwriter, classic rock, soul and country eras in one sweep. Technology, plastic surgeons,

    steroids, video clips.. that's the modern artist.

  • Remember that annoying first video they played?. Video Killed the Radio Star, it did not come to pass right away, but eventually fake artificial music took over indeed. Also, in 1978/1979 was the famous Disco Bonfire at some stadium, Disco had already over stayed its visit by then.

  • no mexicanos see comprende fuck.you dont belong on the abba borders

  • del putas

  • I like how good the band is.You dont see this shit any more.AWESOME

  • @MrLocostSeven Would be better if you did not call it shit!

  • God Andy was so handsome and Olivia so Beautiful those were the Stars They were Just Natural Beauties! Not fake and could sing live not like most singers these days

  • Personally, I find it scary when Olivia & BOTH ABBA ladies are singing at a lower pitch than a bloke (Andy). Great clip by the way!

  • @EarlJohn61 mate he was a Gibb brother.... they have a higher pitch history :-)

  • Yeah I know that. It's still a bit scary. (LOL)

  • I also know that The Beach Boys & the BeeGees were the only groups at the time to regularly hit those notes (MALE or FEMALE)

  • Yeah,he wasnt gay. He got all the hot chicks of his day.Have a little respect for him. He died.

  • bulafritz u r a jackass

  • The guy in the pink suit is very faggy. I was 13 in 1978, but even then nobody dressed like that. No wonder he turned to cocaine.

  • @bulafritz enough with the gay putdowns!!! it's like its the one thing left that you straight people have that you can get away with! its not right that you can put a person down just because they may or may not look faggy as you put it.

  • I was 13 when this was on. I wish I could have stayed up to watch it......lol. Great memories though.

  • wow!! i love to see them sing together like this even i wasn't in that era...guess what i was born on 1980.but i luv to hear this songs

  • Watch videos where Andy Gibb sings "Don't throw away our love, our love" to appreciate the talent the had. He was only 19 or 20 when he appeared on this show , having been born in March 1958. He died in 1988, at the age of 30...

  • Olivia Newton John is so beautiful here! I love her hair and her voice is just amazing! What a collection of talent here! Everyone is singing live and possess ridiculous talent. You can clearly see why they were stars!

  • Totally agree.

  • yeah everyone is entitled to their own opinions, of course, but pretty bad when someone is dead and gone and they are STILL be berated. I always loved Andy Gibb, he was a heart throb "back in my day", am 44 and damn shame what happened to him, as has befell many others, but that is sadly what drug and alchohol addiction can lead to for some. I wish he could have gotten the help he needed. He left us too soon, as have others before and after. I also was and am an ABBA and ONJ fan... memories...

  • Back then, being a singer meant you actually needed to be able to sing...

  • totaly agree with you, and Andy can sure sing if compared to doday's singers, yet considering the company he's in, his act is just a gimmick.. and (don't kill me 'cuz it's true) Olivia's is not that far from being one either.

  • Are you talking bad about Andy Gibb? The most talented, beautiful, handsome and gorgeous man that ever lived? No you could not be. Andy was and is fabulous this man was pure perfection at the least. He was taken way too early and he is still very loved and missed. I would give my live for this man to be here right now. I love Andy Gibb forever.

  • @messiah668 Hmm Rebecca Ferguson can actually sing as you say

  • The guy in the pink is Andy Gibb his brothers are the Bee Gee's, he died tragically either in the late seventies or early eighties. My wife thinks my boyhood crush on Olivia is funny. I've had it for a long time. Even before I first saw Xanadu in the late 70's.

  • Thats funny, I have the same crush on Olivia. I'll watch one of these old videos and feel like I am 14 again. I love these old songs. Wish there was a modern equivalent.

  • u are not alone...i was 7 when Grease came out..

  • Andy died in the late 80s - '88 I think.

    Andy and Oliva had several other duets in the following years, after this was filmed in 1978.

    E.g. during the Hollywood special Olivia did in 1980.

  • @Redtailedhawk99 - I guess your wife doesn't get your crush on Olivia because she's not a guy! LOL! I had a big crush on her too since about 1974. She was gorgeous (still is) with a beautiful voice and great songs. Still love her music! What a great video this is that I happened upon today. Love the BeeGees, Andy, and Abba!

  • @meehowz - I had/ have a crush on Olivia and I'm a girl who likes guys! She's gorgeous: no-one can resist her beauty!

  • Andy Gibb died 10th of March 1988.

  • I love this video, and Love with all my energy Olivia Newton-John I would like marry with her. I will travel to Australia next month and my dream is know her.

    TE AMO OLIVIA!!!!!!!!YOU ARE THE ONE!

  • omg he sucks the guy in the pink..i was born in 1984 by the way. i love olivia N J singing magic..its cool lol

  • You don't go around writing stuff like "OMG he sucks" about dead people, you twit. Show a little respect for people like that. You might get some youself, or by then, maybe everyone will say, "He's just a dead donkey." DAW

  • jeez.. don't get yer nickers in a twist and read what I wrote.

    I said he CAN sing.. yet his ACT is a gimmick... talent ? sure.. many singers/musicioans around have great talent, but it isn't put in the right place.

    That's all I wrote. As for "respect for people like that".. you mean dead people ? hmm... no comment

  • I just have to say one more thing, about what I wrote( ;)) ): when I said talent isn't put in the right place, I meant that many tallented people sing/play/compose according to the aestethical mood of the moment only, not listening to their heart. and that's (again that word) a gimmick, not art wich is what music should be. consider this for a moment

  • Some people have deep difficulty with concepts like "Don't insult people who are not longer able to insult you back."

    On the other hand, if you want to insult Hermann Goering, please have at it, by all means! DAW

  • lol. I still don't see the point.. 1st of all I didn't insult anyone, second of all you didn't type anything about insults, but about lack of respect... if you feel that it's the same thing, well.. umm... again no comment, except that respect needs to be earned, and same goes for an insult.

  • wow!!!

  • I remember watching this when I was a kid. Great video thanks for the memories!!!

  • Excellent!!!

  • Andy sure was something wasn't he, I remember watching him on Solid Gold he was on almost every week sort of like a house regular along with the lovely Sheena Easton. The world lost one enormous talent with his most untimely passing.

  • its called love is thicker than water

  • Whats the name of the first song that Andy sings in this video. I can't find it and I would like to hear the whole thing.???????>>>>

  • I am 150% sure it is ( Love Is) I use to have the record. hope this helps.

  • just take a full look at the information box on the right side ;)

  • Andy reminds me of the story of Icarus, who flew too close to the sun (look it up if you haven't heard it). Sad. But at least he had his moment in the sun.......

    It's so great to see these LEGENDS together on one stage singing live!!

  • yes it´s true, he sounds like bee gees...

  • andy gibb sounds just like hes brothers.

  • awesome..really... abba olivia, andy...if bee gees...and boney m..oufff total.

  • ya like
