@purselady2 yes. Lived in England, moved to Australia between puberty and teenage years, where they were "discovered" so to speak, made several television appearances, given a record deal and released their own songs and the eldest wrote songs for older successful artists. this is the short synopsis. Very interesting history if you ever want to look into it :)
@purselady2 ..... Maurice(left - keyboard/piano ~ recently passed away) - Robin (middle) - and Barry (right). Intially called The Brothers Gibbs. There was a 4th brother Andy who didn't officially become part of The Bee Gees, but had Andy had a short solo career and died at a young age. Andy did sing with the group from time to time as they tried to help get his career going.
I graduated from high school in 1971. This song was all over the radio that summer. My girlfriend and I had just gotten back together and were "making out" when this song came on my car radio. We got married in 1975 and we are still happily married today.(with two kids and two grandkids).
My dad, brother and me are musicians and dad always told me that sometimes old timers change a word in the lyric during the song just to fuck around and sometimes even bet on it. I am pretty sure on one of the parts " please help me mend, my broken heart " Robin says "my broken ass". Check it out, I am sure they did that thing. Love you Bee Gees, you rule !!!
@JoeRedfield1046 Right at about 3:31! That's what I thought he said too. Then @ 3:58 he's grinning like a little kid cause he knows he got away with it.
this was written in the afternoon that they reformed after a 15 month breakup.they also wrote good morning mr sunshine in the same afternoon .I say write but they cant read or write music .This was said by them on this is your life ..... brilliant sheer genius
So much talent wrapped up in these three beautiful souls!!! I love this song more and more each time I hear it. The Bee Gees will live on forever . . . 2:26 Robin's face is priceless. They are all so handsome in this video!!! L-O-V-E you guys so much for your contribution to making my world a better place to live in!!
Musica tocada em cena do filme " O LIVRO DE ELI" com Denzel Washington e Gary Oldmant, que está nos cinemas . Não sei porque não usaram a gravação do Bee Gees que lançou a musica justamente na época que aconteceu o apocalipse( no filme)???????
He was crooning the lyrics softly, the trumpet player didn't tone down and drowned him out. I would imagine Awesome Gibb had a word with him later over that one!
Slowmambo# , your dead on with that about the Gibb brothers and MJ..mutual respect between good friends. Losers will always ramble about stuff they know nothing about. One of MJ favorite songs.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Michael Jackson is not even in the same league as the Bee Gees!! This was a time that singers could really sing live and play their instruments. All Michael could do was dance and grab his crouch! Oh yeah, and molest little boys. All I can say is; when I heard MJ was dead; I thought at least all the little children are safe now!!!
Barry Gibb said "Michael was my friend, the only recording artist I truly knew and who truly knew me. He was the Godfather to my son Michael. We have lost a dear member of our family, we are devastated. Michael you will live forever in our hearts. Fly away butterfly take it to your journeys end. We will always love you." -
Not to get into a great debate, especially over someone who is deceased; but, last I heard, he was never convicted of anything. It is not for us to be the judge. He is in front of the most important judge now. IF, and I stress the word "IF", he did what he had been accused of, he will answer for it.
This tragedy should teach us a lesson to value and praise those gifts while we still have them in the world. If even a small portion of the praise that is bestowed on Michael Jackson now in death was given to him last year in life, he might well still be with us. That is the sad truth. One consolation is that he will triumph by his legacy."
Robbin said "Weve not only lost a great friend in Michael but also lost a wonderful sensitive human being. The Bee Gees heard music with the same ears. Michael had a great voice and millions of people yet to be born will sing his songs.
lol its from 2:23 to 2:30 hahhahahah i won !!!!!! i won the contest i have spotted when barry forgot his words woohah besides its a good song!!! beegees for life
All 4 brothers are here!. Not many videos around including Andy Gibb except from the very early days. Andy split from the group in the early 80's having a relatively succesfull solo career of his own. Never made it into the 90's. Might have done had he stayed in the Band of Brothers! BeeGees such great singer- songwriters and now only two remain as Maurice died in 2002 I think? Great retro Video & they were looking good !
One Of Their Best Songs Ever. You need to learn to live and enjoy to the fullest, you'll never know when the happiness it's going to start fading from your life....
I was born in 1980 but have spent my entire life listening to real musicians like the bee gees and I still do today. I prefer the classics to the crap that people make today!!! This is real music
In answer to the question asked by favsis, "Can you spot where Barry forgets the words?" I caught it at 2:24. He acted very professional & didn't miss a beat.
Oh, how I wish everyone of us that can remember when this song first came out could go back in time & live life again. If we only new then what we know now.......
Music from the 70's will never die! Thank you boys! Brilliant, just brilliant!!!
I cry every time I hear this song. I broke someone's heart 40 years ago, and I suffer the guilt of that everyday, and when I hear this song...it moves me beyond anything I can explain.
The summer of 1971, I was at boy scout camp, I had my transistor radio with me. I bet this song played 10 to 12 times a day. Sometimes I wish I could go back.
Wow! This was rare! Really always wondering why you guys got this stuff and not us! But it's still ok since you guys share it out!
I love Robin face expression! So deep inside! I don't think Barry forgot the lyrics. Just a bit. I still can listen that Barry sing "that ruses over trees". Haha!
well, not sure how to answer. Not sure if it is out for commercial sales, but, some have it. I think most of it is out here in youtube land in video clips.
I can still feel the breeze that hmm hmm hmmm hmm hmm, you can see it in his eyes he kind of went blank just before trying to get the words out. Very good performance even still.
Robin please make your album NOW!
