Bee Gees interview on Sunrise - Part 1 - 13/11/09

[violet640]

That's no wig. I think Robin had 'hair implant'. It hurts me to see him so painfully thin. I hope and pray that his health improves.

HOW DEEP IS MY LOVE FOR THE BEEGEES PRETTY DAMN DEEP

[belinda2118]

Have you seen how many hits they have. They are unique. Gods gift to us.

[kevthedrummer]

I'm gonna start doing the falsetto "MA MA MA" toilet acoustic test.

[TheSketchJoseph]

IM BARRY F-ING GIBB

[cybaker1982]

I don't think that Barry will ever stop creating; music, screenplays, soundtracks, writing, producing, mentoring...

[low72]

Why do news channels always have to have huge windows in the back for idiots to make fools of themselves? Seriously?

[0917gva]

Imagine going back to the place where a lot of your earlier songs were recorded. The amazing wall with all the gold records. It was would be amazing - I mean to walk through the very door that you walked through so many years ago, with the full knowledge that, once upon a time, you had your hand on that door knob never knowing that years down the road you would come back with all the success in the world. Success you may never have dreamed of. Pretty amazing to me. Thank you.

[melomane2010]

You fucking better support your boys. I know I do, and I'm a yank.

[Mugenat0r]

Barry is so down to earth

[gardenofarcane]

Strange to hear em talk I always thought they had girly voices, freaks!

[hayden50]

@gardenofarcane "girly voices" ? fuck you asshole.

[fishandfestival]

Barry, Maurice and Robin were/are a great musical group...It's a pity that Maurice departed this earth so early, but the Bee Gees' music will live on forever...I never understood how come Maurice and Robin were twins, yet they look so different...Andy and Barry looked a lot alike...Speakng of Andy, it's a pity that he departed this earth so early as well...I hope that Barry and Robin will live on for a long time to come and that there will be a new generation of Bee Gees one day.

[ciao614]

@fishandfestival They are fraternal twins. Google it.

[Weidenmietzchen]

die sind klasse.

[hollywoodswinging79]

stayin alive is the best thing that happened to them

[briabba123]

it can't be easy once your twin dies it must be even harder when you share esp with them it also must of been hard when the brothers wern't speeking to eachother

[smoothhoney1265]

I got the opportunity to see Robin perform live a couple of days ago. What can I say? It was a magical and wonderful experience. The magic of their songs just never fades :)

[leilalovesrobin]

god bless you robin and barry....ive always love you...and robin please take care of yourself. i love you so much it hurts to see you unwell.

[anteroXBash]

i have a question what would happen if maurice never died (god bless his soul)

would they make new songs tour alot or just bask in the legends they became? that's my question to you people.

[smeggs30]

@anteroXBash -- The Bee Gees last studio album was released just under 2 years before Maurice's death (This is Where I Came In). The lads were all still active musically when Mo died, and I see no reason why they wouldn't have continued to do so had that not happened. If The Bee Gees have shown anything over their extensive recording career, it's their ability to adapt and successfully tap into current musical trends. Don't think they know how to bask. ;-)

[JulesJJF]

I love you Barry!!!!!!!

[jmlbloom]

man i'm impressed that considering how great looking Barry was and all the adoration he must have got/gets he seems so down to earth and gentle. He also does not seem to have had/has a superiority complex over his bros due to the greater attention paid to him.

[HabibTh]

I actually prefer Robin without hair, he looks fine and natural during the One Night Only Show.

[opendtuning]

why do people in association with the Bee gees always laugh at the word "Disco" when every saturday night in Your town people gather in all ages at the "Disco"???

[SweetSesatia]

wow! Barry looks a lot like my ol' daddy here! lol! He's aged well though. Robin not so much, but hey, whatever, they're still great!! Fantastic singers and musicians!! I bet Andy would have aged very well!!!!!

[smeggs30]

@Holdenon3 "Blond like you've always been?"

Do you mean blonde like the brown he was as a child?

Or perhaps blonde like the brown he was in the 60s?

How about blonde like the redhead he was in the 70s?

Maybe you mean blonde like the brown he reverted to in the 90s-00s?

Yes, he was blonde in the 80s. Not to be indelicate or anything, but the man's been around for a lot longer than one decade, and he's been not-blonde for longer than he's been playing with the bleach.

[sirtinycreep]

@Holdenon3 I agree. With all that money he has surely he could afford a better wig. He'd look all right in a wig like Christopher Lee's.

[jordan04n]

Oh, the pain on Robins face is so much to bare....lovin brothers all way thro....bless...love u all...please tour...we need u....holding on by a thread....love

[Edam3000]

Wow ! - Barry got fat.

[EffieReal]

LOLz at upside-down sign at the end :)

[PJrecords12]

Please Barry and Robin Gibb write one more HIT record !!

[A3iisky]

@PJrecords12 not the same without Maurice.

[marquimsc]

Congratulations for the video posted. At 3:15 there is a live performance of "Closer Than Close", someone has the link of this performance of "Closer Than Close"? (ONO Las Vegas I know the link, but it does not). Thank you.

[LBJTV]

Why do people giggle when they think or say ''disco'' ...like the reporter did near the end...

It was one of the most exciting years full of beautiful music...

I do not know why it is frowned upon...

[beatlejuice72]

The Bee Gees always admired R&B artists, true R&B artists. Not like the R&B that's out now. Otis Redding, Stevie Wonder, the great Motown groups. The Bee Gees always admired them and they had written "To Love Somebody" for Otis Redding. So the foray into R&B/disco from rock/pop was not totally unexpected. And, one has to remember, the "Main Course" album was made 2 years prior to "Saturday Night Fever." This was before disco really began to become part of the mainstream.

[beegeebetty]

I love the Bee Gees! I have always loved them. Although the loss of Maurice will always be painful and the Bee Gees will never be the same I am thrilled to see Barry and Robin performing together. They are the most talented group ever. I must say that I still think Barry Gibb is the sexiest man ever born. I makes my heart race. His beauty is ageless. Love those Bee Gees!

[KatyinWI]

I love the BEE GEE'S !  Their songwriters over 1000+ songs, composers. That's a rariety. Love seeing the two brothers on Dancing with the Stars. Thanks for all the beautiful music! They are so humble about their sucesses! Congratulations on 50 years of performing under The BEE GEES!

[rhart123]

I hated disco and Saturday Night Fever, but I've got to respect these guys overall. 50 years? I thought the Rolling Stones would be the first to reach 50 years as a band.

[powerpuffkiss17]

disco was the best part of the 70's man come on i rather listen to this rather than the crap they have today

[rhart123]

Well, I might have to agree regarding today's crap, but as far as disco being the best part of the 70's? No way. Can't agree with that.

[BonaDun]

BTW, I'd like to shove it in that interviewer's mouth

Fuckin Aussies

[smeggs30]

Excuse me?

[BonaDun]

what part of my comment do you object to?

[smeggs30]

Partly asking for clarification on the first part of the comment, since you were anything but clear. And partly objecting to the second part of your comment, since I am, as you so eloquently put it, a fuckin Aussie. Do you have a specific problem with Aussies, or are you always a prat?

[BonaDun]

smeggs30 said: '...since you were anything but clear...'

Oh, I'm sorry luv, 'shove it in' as in 'manifestation of transcendent desire in carnal form'. "Fucking Aussies" is simply an homage to Australia and its people as it is my impression that they are most particularly engaged in the possibilities of sexual energies on their highest levels. I like Australia and its people despite all the sub-human characteristics ascribed to them.

[BonaDun]

underrated song writers

[ilsy74]

I missed part 2 today. Can you post it?? Would love it - cheers:)

[smeggs30]

@ilsy74 Will do! I forgot to set the DVR at work, so it won't be as good a quality, unfortunately. But I should have it up tomorrow night. They repeated a couple parts of the first interview but there were other highlights. :)
