They have been around since the 1960s, through the 1980s. I was lucky to have grown up listening to them. Only Barry is still alive. I love seeing the younger generation discovering them.
The Bee Gees started sing[ng in the mid 1950's and were trio until Maurice's death in 2003. Barry and Robin continued singing until 2010 and Robin died in 3013.
This song has the rather unique distinction of having been donated in its entirety to UNICEF. This includes all of the publishing rights. The song went number 1and has raised incredible amounts of money for children.
Actually there were a few groups/artists that did this. It was done as part of a special show for UNICEF. Rod Steward, Donna Summer, Abba and Earth, Wind and Fire were just a few of the participants of this event. Andy Gibb also gave them 2 songs that night.
OMG I love you kids! Ya'll are such great people. She reminds me so much of my niece! Love that you two are getting so into this. I grew up listening to the Bee Gees
Sorry kids, barry (the one in the front ) is the only bee gee left . The other two are his younger brother's robin ( no beard)& Maurice (with a beard), whom are fraternal twins ,and theyhad a younger brother named andy gibb ( famous in his own right) .he looked like barry except younger and without the beard. They would back up andy on vocals.
This was a top band from the 19 70's and are recognized as one of the greatest vocal groups of all time. Brothers Barry, Maurice and Robin, and no, Barry couldn't and wouldn't have done this alone.
They also write all thier songs & alot of songs for other big name singers like country stars Dolly Parton & Kenny Rogers & songs on the movie Grease & even Barbara Streisand.
BGs or BeeGees stands for Brothers Gibb, as all 3 are brothers: Barry (lead, oldest), Robin (long blonde) and twin of Maurice (in black}. Barry still living. Robin & Maurice have passed. Rest in peace. Andy is also another brother, in the mold of Barry, that passed some time ago.
The Bee Gee's are one of the most commercially successful groups of all time. They are also prolific song writers. They wrote for themselves as well as many other artists of the day. They are a group of brothers with perfect harmony. Too Much Heaven came out in 1978. It was posted to UA-cam in 2017.
No don't call them by that... they are classic and deserve respect. They had 6 songs in the top 10 at one time!! They've written over 200 classic songs... not just for themselves but a lot of different people. They are the best group ever!!! They can all sing very good. Each have their own gifts and sing lead on different songs. The 2 twins on the ends have passed away... they also have a younger brother "Andy Gibb" who was a sole artist ...who has also passed away. The 1 in the middle is Barry and is the only 1 still living. He does have a sister, but she never got into the music industry. The Bee Gee's are and always will be the best group ever!! I grew up listening to them and their brother, Andy. The best times ever!! And no computer crap to help them either!! It's pure talent!
Hello! I love your channel. Both of you are so filled with joy and happiness. Fun comments. Dude your lady is #beatififul . Keep her happy and young lady your dude is a happy and cool guy. The two of you have a connection. MAY GOD BLESS YOU ON THIS EASTER SUNDAY.......I’m holed on you two!!! Keep up the #grind you’ll get to the top
No, Barry could not have done this by himself. The main driving part of The Bee Gees is the harmonies. The chorus would not work without Robin and Maurice. The group did not have a main singer but when it came to the falsetto songs Barry was the main man.
@@fredklimenko3311 I do not agree. Barry had so much control on the falsetto voice whereas both Robin and Maurice had troubles when it came to holding the tones. But I think you are correct, Maurice had a good voice, the way that he was the link between Robin and Barry's voices just shows that. Without him the harmonies would not be the same.
This is an older song. Every penny made from this song went to UNICEF the first band to ever give all of the proceeds from music to charity. The guy in the black died in 2003 his name is Maurice pronounced Morris. The one in the middle is Barry and he is famous for his falsetto. He is the only brother alive and he I believe is 77. The guy on the left his name is Robin who happens to be fraternal twin with Maurice, died in 2012. They had a younger Brother named Andy who also was a singer who died in 1988. I am 59 and I was raised on the Bee Gees I was blessed enough to see them perform in 1978. I have seen this video and heard this song 1000 times and every time I hear it I still get goosebumps even in the middle of the summer. There is no other group like the Bee Gees and there never will be.
Robin and Maurice were better singers than Barry as far as range is concerned ...Robins lead vocals on the early songs are off the charts and Maurice made a bit of music on his own when he left the band and it is awesome ..
So you are aware... The Bee Gees were three brothers who began writing lyrics and performing music when they were very young. Barry, the oldest was nine years old and his twin brothers Maurice & Robin were six years old. This was back in the late ’50s! Only Barry is left. He is now 75 years old and is working to preserve the Bee Gees catalog of music. A phenomenal group for five decades!!!
BeeGees, 3 brothers, complete, sweet harmony of siblings. Amazing. This is from 1978. Guy in the middle, Barry is the only living brother, been married to his only wife over 50 yrs. This song would be nothing without the harmonies. He could not do this one alone.
The Bee Gees were a music group formed in 1958. Their lineup consisted of brothers Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb. The trio were especially successful as a popular music act in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and later as prominent performers of the disco music era in the mid-to-late 1970s.
And they grew up in Australia and sung together as kids on local TV talent shows down here. I’m an old Aussie bloke and grew up listening to their music even before they moved to the US where they became famous especially during the Disco Era of the 1970’s.
It’s was 4 brothers Barry Gibbs the one in the middle. Robin and Maurice and Andy passed away. Barry is 77 years old he still performs. Listening to the best of The Bee Gees u won’t regret
Totally unique no other group can come close to the BeeGees. sadly only one is left the other two are dead. and the legends are no more. but they left there talents with us and will never be forgotten when the last Bee Gee joins his brothers rip.your music lives on.
The BeeGees (Brothers Gibb) have been a favorite of mine since high school (Class of '79, Baby!) My graduation gift was two tickets to their concert at the Oakland Coliseum... so happy you two like them, too! Great reactions- keep doing what you're doing. I'm looking forward to seeing your channel grow!
Seeing the joy of the 1970's on the face of the generation of the 2020's makes me tear up. You cannot help but be caught up in the lyrics and the harmony! Great job!
I was your age when this song came out (1978). It is very good to see young people like you discover these songs. There is much more by so many people. Enjoy your adventure!
3 Brothers from Australia and made this in 1978. Barry middle Bother only one still living. His 2 brothers have passed. Barry Maurice and Robin. My music I grew up with. Thanks for the memories
No. BeeGees. Pronunciation is B G’s. Best vocalists you’ll ever hear. No joke!!!!!! These guys have been around since way before you were born. They had hits in the 60s the 70s the 80s and even into the 90s. They have the most beautiful voices and the way they harmonize is like no other. You have three brothers and their voices together sound like heaven. Welcome to the beautiful world, the beautiful music of the greatest singers ever. If I lived to be 100, there will never be another group like these guys❤️
The video came out in the 70s. They're brothers and that's Barry Gibb the oldest brother in the middle. The other two were twins Robin and Maurice. They both died unfortunately. Barry Gibb is the only surviving member. Bee Gees song to react to: Fanny Be Tender (With My Love). Its a banger. Also Samantha Sang's "Emotion". Barry Gibb wrote the song and sings background vocals on it!
I see that Samantha Sang song occasionally on my cable video channels - and I'm always surprised that they mention the BeeGees or Barry - b/c it's so obvious!
Ah .... young people hearing good music. Not the overproduced, manufactured, commercialized, so called "music" of today. No. This is real music that reaches into your soul and won't let go. Keep searching young people; music like this is out there just waiting for you to hear it.
This was originally done in the late 70's ! The one in the Middle is Barry Gibb, he's the lone survivor, his Brothers there, Robin, and Maurice passed away years ago!😢 Barry still produces music!!🎶
This was one of the biggest groups in the 70's. Only one remains. Two have passed away. They had such perfect harmony. The middle guy and the one with the darker hair have passed away. They were greatly missed due the harmony. Great to see the reaction you both had
The way you're liking this now, is the way we liked it in the 70s. These guys are all brothers and Barry Gibb, the one in the middle, is the only one still living. I can tell you exactly why you're liking this. The harmony is fantastic, you can understand all of the words, and it's one of those tunes that you'll be singing all day long. These are all what we were feeling when we first heard them so many years ago. A good song will always be a good song. I happy you're finding these older tunes for you to love and to pass them down to younger generations. By doing that, younger performers to come will be inspired to write songs like this and restart the style that made the Bee Gee's so popular and well loved. There are so many songs left by these guys that you haven't heard yet, you both are in for treat. Enjoy....
It's like they invented harmony. Live band, no auto tune, no computerized voice enhancement and one mic for all three of them. Back then (1979). singing was just pure, raw talent. By the date of this recording, the BeeGees had already been singing together professionally for 21 years when Barry was 12 years old and the twins were just 9. All of the Gibb brothers including little brother, Andy, could sing in that amazing falsetto voice. But Barry was the master. He was able to exorcise more control over it. The Gibbs were, in my opinion, the most multi-talented families in music history. They wrote their own songs as well as writing songs for many other musical greats.This song was included on a compilation album to benefit UNICEF. There were many artists who recorded songs on the album, but the BeeGees gave all the royalties from this song in any form. In, at that time, an unprecedented move, they also gave UNICEF the publishing rights to Too Much Heaven. To date, Too Much Heaven has raised over 11 million dollars for UNICEF. In 1967, they wrote a song called To Love Somebody which appeared on their third album titled BeeGees 1st, but their first internationally, as the first two albums were only released in Australia. BeeGees 1st was released in July '67. Otis Redding was set to record To Love Somebody on his next album. Sadly, Otis was killed in a plane crash, Dec 10,1967. I thought for the longest time that they didn't record it themselves until after the death of Otis Redding. Their brother Andy Gibb had a very successful solo career as well until his death on March 10,1988. Just 5 days after turning 30. Andy had developed myocarditis, inflammation of the heart, which was brought on by a viral infection While most people recover from myocarditis, Andy's body was unable to fight the infection due to his history of drug use. Soo sad!
As one Bible worshiper to another, thanks for your reactions. And if you like The Bee Gees, you might want to investigate their earlier work from the late 60's, like "Lonely Days" or "To Love Somebody".
i grew up on this music . i loved all of their music . they had a younger brother named Andy Gibb who was really good , but he died at 30 years old . my favorite song that he had was Shadow Dancing .
The Bee Gees wrote over 1000 songs and Barry is still writing. You have a lot of delight ahead of you because every one of their songs is amazing!!! 💜👏🤗
This was in 1979. The middle guy is Barry Gibb. He's the oldest brother. The other 2 are twins. Robin is on the left and Maurice on the right. Both Robin & Maurice have passed away.
Barry Gibb, whom is the middle guy, is the lead singer. The group was named after him, Bee (Barry) Gibb (Gees). Barry wrote, and produced all the songs and music for their records.
The Bee Gees was comprised of Barry Gibb and his two brothers, twins Maurice and Robin. Maurice died unexpectedly in 2003 from complications of a twisted intestine, and Robin died nine years later in 2012 after his health declined due to similar problems.Jun 20, 2017
This performance was in the recording studio in 1978-79. They recorded the song for a children's charity. Plus, the song came out a little after the Saturday Night Fever Soundtrack which was done in 77-78. Barry,Maurice, and Robin Gibb (Maurice was on the right and Robin was on the left. They were twins). Barry was in the middle. Unfortunately Robin Gibb passed away from a stroke and Maurice passed from lung cancer. They had another brother named Andy. Barry wrote a few songs for him like "I just want to be your everything", "shadow dancing", (our love) Don't Throw it All Away", and "Love is thicker than water". But, when was just 30, he passed away from a drug overdose. Please pick out some of those songs and they'll be good for you.
I just seen a video from an Australian variety show in 1963. Brother Gibbs aka Bee Gees: Barry, Robin, and Maurice were in their teens singing a song. I figured out their ages during this time: Barry was 16, Robin and Maurice were 14. Barry still sings today with his own band. His son, Steve Gibb plays guitar with the band. Someone mentioned about their younger brother, Andy Gibb died in 1988.
The BeeGees wrote over 1,000 songs, for themself and MANY other Top Musicians. They also have the 2nd highest selling Single Album in History - 63 MILLION. In their career together, (60's - 90's) they sold over 220 MILLION albums, so what they did seemed to work :-)
They were incredibly successful, particularly in the late 70s but they didn't sell that many albums. By any official and accredited sales charts, they don't make the top 10 of groups. I've checked it out several times before. The Beatles are at number 1. Abba are at number 10. In between it's all classic rock band, such as Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Eagles, The Rolling Stones, AC/DC, Queen etc.
@@fredklimenko3311 - I've checked this many times over. It's you that needs to check again. The Bee Gees don't make the top10. Also, I'm presuming the album you're referring to is Saturday Night Fever? It's the 7th biggest selling album of all-time, with 40 million sales. More importantly it's not a Bee Gees album. It's a film soundtrack album featuring several different artists. Even more importantly, none of their other albums trouble the top 200. In contrast, a band like Zeppelin had every album, except their debut, go to number 1 in both the UK and the US, as well as numerous other countries. Even their debut was top 10. This includes several of the biggest selling albums of all-time. Including Led Zeppelin IV, which is only a couple of million behind Saturday Night Fever. It's a similar story with Pink Floyd, whose Dark Side of the Moon is the 3rd biggest selling album of all-time and which holds the record for most weeks on the Billboard album chart, by a mile! Having spent close to 1000 weeks on the chart. That's almost 20 years! They also have several other albums in the top 100 biggest sellers. I know this because I've checked and double-checked, when discussing the topic with diehard fans, of various bands, who've made similar exaggerated claims for their favourite act. My favourite was an Abba fan that was claiming more than 2 billion record sales for Abba. That would have meant Abba selling more than The Beatles, Elvis Presley, Led Zeppelin, Michael Jackson and Pink Floyd combined!
Zeppelin and Floyd are also in the top 3, when it comes to best selling back catalogues. Even today their albums outsell most contemporary artists. It's a similar story, to a slightly lesser degree, for acts like Queen and The Rolling Stones. In contrast, the Bee Gees back catalogue doesn't trouble any contemporary charts.
The only surviving member of the Bee Gees, Barry Gibb, says he sometimes "hears and sees" his late brothers. Robin died in 2012 aged 62, nine years after his twin Maurice. The youngest Gibb brother - Andy - died of a heart attack aged 30 in 1988.
This song came out in 1977.. Barry Gibb, the one in the middle, is the oldest and Maurice and Robin Gibb are on the right and left. Maurice and Robin are twins and they have both died. Barry is still performing. They started in 1958 at the ages of 12 and nine and went through the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's and more. They wrote for others also.
5 decades. 3 brothers - Robin (whose falsetto is allegedly higher than Barry’s) and Maurice. Barry usually has his guitar. Maurice (the “little one,” as you put it) usually has a bass or keyboard. There’s a considerably younger brother, Andy, who died tragically just as he was supposed to join the group. He had his own solo career. Barry and Robin usually split who sings lead, but most Barry. Maurice passed. Next and the. Robin. Barry is the oldest and the only one left. And yes, Barry still performs with two of his sons. Always loved Barry’s hair! They just kept changing with the times. My fave group of all time. There’s a documentary on HBO(?) about them on now. I also love You Win Again and Fallen Angel (Caroline). Barry didn’t always use the falsetto because he didn’t know he could! Watch the doc!
The lead singer Is Barry Gibb is now 74 years old to two others are his younger brothers Maurice and Robin. Maurice passed away in 2001 and Robin passed away in 2012.
The group is three brothers. Been singing together for 50 years up until early 200 when the two on the outside died suddenly(cancer and a botched heart surgery respectively). Barry in the middle still sings with a band but has stated he still misses his brothers terribly. They had three big runs from the late 50s, then 70s when the high pitch harmonies started and late 80s which is when this came out I think. Large catalog of hits they sang and where they just wrote for others starting in the 80s and 90s. Deep dive these guys. You'll love it all. Great to see younger folks getting into this old school stuff again.
Hey fun kids, just gonna let y'all know this song was released back in 1977. The two younger brothers passed away and Barry is still alive. He's about 72 yr old. They ruled the 70's.
Bee Gees' biggest bangers in chronological order: You Should Be Dancing (1976), How Deep Is Your Love (1977), More Than a Woman (1977), Stayin' Alive (1977), Night Fever (1978), Too Much Heaven (1978), Tragedy (1979), Alone (1997)
Song originally recorded in 1978. So about four decades before the 2017 date of the upload. :) Is a classic. The Bee Gees are an amazing band and have a load of classics not just the songs they sing themselves but the many songs they wrote for other artists too. :)
Barry Gibb in the middle is the only Bee Gee left and is 74 years old. The other two are his younger brothers, Robin (without a beard) and Maurice (with a beard) have both passed away. Maurice in 2003 and Robin in 2012.
Finally getting the respect they deserve ? These guys had everybody's respect from way back. The other artists that these guys wrote songs for is crazy long. These guys are legends in the music industry.
People who liked Disco gave them respect im from the south side of Chicago and was there when disco was blown up at comiskey Park after that night disco was dead and so were alot of artists careers it wasn't kool to like the Bee Gees so ya its good to see people who don't know them lov there music
@@ricoalvarado54 One last quick comment, these guys were a thing way before disco was a thing. Disco was just one more genre they nailed moving forward. And when I read south side of Chicago, Ha Ha, automatically went to the night Chicago died. Lots of good music out there.
Why The Bee Gees ? Mother’s name, Barbara Gibb (BG) Lead singer, Barry Gibb (BG) Twin brothers, Brothers Gibb (BG) First sponsor/DJ, Bill Gates (BG) Hope that helps one to remember the pronunciation of their group. It was a symphony playing & they did not routinely accompany The Bee Gees, however the Bee Gees did have 3 instrumental players since early in their career. Both twins are long gone now & Barry, the eldest, has suffered with severe chronic pain for decades, which one would never know watching them in concert.
They made the song in 1978. They are all brothers from the United Kingdom. They also had a baby brother name Andy Gibbs that recorded as well. Andy died from a OD at the age of 30. They are all deceased except the middle brother. You should check out the life of the Gibb Brother's, very interesting. But also, quite devastating what happened to them in the music industry. Love them!!
the bee gees short for The Brothers Gibb ...the two on the outside Morris in black and Robin in white were twins and have both passed away and gone to that heaven... only Barry the eldest left ... ... this was out about 1978 but they were singing together from the late 1950s as kids... they had hits in the 1960s ...great to see young people enjoying the music from a great era...and yeah you guys wouldv enjoyed that era can see it in your eyes..really was a great time to be young
Can you imagine how many of us women fell in love with this mans voice? Omg!
They have been around since the 1960s, through the 1980s. I was lucky to have grown up listening to them. Only Barry is still alive. I love seeing the younger generation discovering them.
Right there with you Mary.
Those were the best of times.
Butterfly is so poetic
They were around to the 2000s actually.
The Bee Gees started sing[ng in the mid 1950's and were trio until Maurice's death in 2003. Barry and Robin continued singing until 2010 and Robin died in 3013.
This song has the rather unique distinction of having been donated in its entirety to UNICEF. This includes all of the publishing rights. The song went number 1and has raised incredible amounts of money for children.
Thanks - I did not know that, but am not surprised -- these guys were awesome in every way!
That's why I love this song is it went to charity
I wish other big artists would do the same at least I do not know of any
Actually there were a few groups/artists that did this. It was done as part of a special show for UNICEF. Rod Steward, Donna Summer, Abba and Earth, Wind and Fire were just a few of the participants of this event. Andy Gibb also gave them 2 songs that night.

OMG I love you kids! Ya'll are such great people. She reminds me so much of my niece! Love that you two are getting so into this. I grew up listening to the Bee Gees
The Bee Gees were the greatest ever!! Their music touches your heart and soul! Anybody can relate and feel this
Sorry kids, barry (the one in the front ) is the only bee gee left . The other two are his younger brother's robin ( no beard)& Maurice (with a beard), whom are fraternal twins ,and theyhad a younger brother named andy gibb ( famous in his own right) .he looked like barry except younger and without the beard. They would back up andy on vocals.
So VERY sad....they were all gone WAY to soon....beautiful voices...💔😥💔. Barry is a continuing treasure...💜❤💙🧡
Barry be hitting those Mariah notes
This was a top band from the 19 70's and are recognized as one of the greatest vocal groups of all time. Brothers Barry, Maurice and Robin, and no, Barry couldn't and wouldn't have done this alone.
So sad that the others passed now Barry being the only one left. 😪
They also write all thier songs & alot of songs for other big name singers like country stars Dolly Parton & Kenny Rogers & songs on the movie Grease & even Barbara Streisand.
Grew up on the Bee Gees......No Talk box....No auto tune.....All Talented and gifted..especially this song.....Its just something you can't repeat!
BGs or BeeGees stands for Brothers Gibb, as all 3 are brothers: Barry (lead, oldest), Robin (long blonde) and twin of Maurice (in black}. Barry still living. Robin & Maurice have passed. Rest in peace. Andy is also another brother, in the mold of Barry, that passed some time ago.

Just love when youngins finally hear our music 🎶
This what you call real music from people who have real talent.
No don't call them by that... they are classic and deserve respect. They had 6 songs in the top 10 at one time!! They've written over 200 classic songs... not just for themselves but a lot of different people. They are the best group ever!!! They can all sing very good. Each have their own gifts and sing lead on different songs. The 2 twins on the ends have passed away... they also have a younger brother "Andy Gibb" who was a sole artist ...who has also passed away. The 1 in the middle is Barry and is the only 1 still living. He does have a sister, but she never got into the music industry. The Bee Gee's are and always will be the best group ever!! I grew up listening to them and their brother, Andy. The best times ever!! And no computer crap to help them either!! It's pure talent!

The group did not have a main singer but when it came to the falsetto songs Barry was the main man.
I totally agree that Barry would not had sound as amazing solo, it was the combination of the three, they are missed.
maurice had better falsetto than barry and lovely voice
@@fredklimenko3311 I do not agree. Barry had so much control on the falsetto voice whereas both Robin and Maurice had troubles when it came to holding the tones.
But I think you are correct, Maurice had a good voice, the way that he was the link between Robin and Barry's voices just shows that.
Without him the harmonies would not be the same.
@@fredklimenko3311 no he didnt
The group did, too, have lead singers. Barry, lead one, Robin, lead two, Maurice harmony. That’s how they described it on Larry King.
"It's a bright spirit that hits you."
Well said young man!
This is an older song. Every penny made from this song went to UNICEF the first band to ever give all of the proceeds from music to charity. The guy in the black died in 2003 his name is Maurice pronounced Morris. The one in the middle is Barry and he is famous for his falsetto. He is the only brother alive and he I believe is 77.

The older I get the more I realize how great it was to grow up with the music of the 70's.
Yall are very young .cause your reactions show it.
The other (Robin and Maurice) two help make the harmonies pop. So Barry (the middle guy) couldn’t have done it by himself.
Robin and Maurice were better singers than Barry as far as range is concerned ...Robins lead vocals on the early songs are off the charts and Maurice made a bit of music on his own when he left the band and it is awesome ..
The BeeGees came out in 1958 and were an immediate 🙌 Success!!! We loved them then and we love them today ❤💕
So you are aware... The Bee Gees were three brothers who began writing lyrics and performing music when they were very young.

I took my girlfriend to see them in concert in 1979 in Texas. WOW, it was amazing. high energy. Listen to "Tragedy"
These guys are the best. Nothing better when it comes to harmony. Just wow
BeeGees, 3 brothers, complete, sweet harmony of siblings. Amazing. This is from 1978. Guy in the middle, Barry is the only living brother, been married to his only wife over 50 yrs. This song would be nothing without the harmonies. He could not do this one alone.

Love the BeeGees. I’m 59 and feel great about growing up and old with their music.
Totally unique no other group can come close to the BeeGees. sadly only one is left the other two are dead. and the legends are no more. but they left there talents with us and will never be forgotten when the last Bee Gee joins his brothers rip.your music lives on.
It's like Relaxing on top of a Hill Watching The Sun Rise How Breath Taking this song is you can easily get so lost inside of it's embrace.
The BeeGees (Brothers Gibb) have been a favorite of mine since high school (Class of '79, Baby!) My graduation gift was two tickets to their concert at the Oakland Coliseum... so happy you two like them, too! Great reactions- keep doing what you're doing. I'm looking forward to seeing your channel grow!
I'm from Australia and grew up with B GEEES, They
were four brothers, the youngest died early in his his singing life..
The greatest band of all of my time need to have their name pronounced correctly. It's just the respect their due.
Exactly! Totally ruins the song!
Don't be so harsh, they are just being playful. Lighten up!
How long were you upset about it? Did it mess up your whole day?
LOL!! My thoughts exactly!
@@AdamKoestline619 I wish!! It actually formed the entire curse of 2020!! Barf!!
I've heard this song 500 times and I still act like y'all are. Love y'all.
Seeing the joy of the 1970's on the face of the generation of the 2020's makes me tear up. You cannot help but be caught up in the lyrics and the harmony! Great job!
I was your age when this song came out (1978). It is very good to see young people like you discover these songs. There is much more by so many people. Enjoy your adventure!
I love you guys! I love your reaction and appreciation to music I be listen to for 40 years now. Bless the both of you. Too adorable!!
They are brothers. Such magnifice!!😎
I always thought they sounded like how angels would sing. ❤️🇬🇧
3 Brothers from Australia and made this in 1978. Barry middle Bother only one still living. His 2 brothers have passed. Barry Maurice and Robin. My music I grew up with. Thanks for the memories
No. BeeGees. Pronunciation is
B G’s. Best vocalists you’ll ever hear. No joke!!!!!! These guys have been around since way before you were born. They had hits in the 60s the 70s the 80s and even into the 90s.
They have the most beautiful voices and the way they harmonize is like no other. You have three brothers and their voices together sound like heaven. Welcome to the beautiful world, the beautiful music of the greatest singers ever.
If I lived to be 100, there will never be another group like these guys❤️
❤️ **IF THERE IS MUSIC IN HEAVEN, IT WOULD SOUND LIKE THE BEE GEE'S** ❤️ R.I.P. Andy, Maurice, & Robin…️
The video came out in the 70s. They're brothers and that's Barry Gibb the oldest brother in the middle. The other two were twins Robin and Maurice. They both died unfortunately. Barry Gibb is the only surviving member. Bee Gees song to react to: Fanny Be Tender (With My Love). Its a banger. Also Samantha Sang's "Emotion". Barry Gibb wrote the song and sings background vocals on it!
I see that Samantha Sang song occasionally on my cable video channels - and I'm always surprised that they mention the BeeGees or Barry - b/c it's so obvious!
He can hit higher notes in Staying Alive.
Ah .... young people hearing good music. Not the overproduced, manufactured, commercialized, so called "music" of today. No. This is real music that reaches into your soul and won't let go. Keep searching young people; music like this is out there just waiting for you to hear it.
This was originally done in the late 70's ! The one in the Middle is Barry Gibb, he's the lone survivor, his Brothers there, Robin, and Maurice passed away years ago!😢 Barry still produces music!!🎶
THIS IS WHY THE 70s IS my Fav DECADE ,, MUSIC WAS FANTASTIC
This was one of the biggest groups in the 70's. Only one remains. Two have passed away. They had such perfect harmony. The middle guy and the one with the darker hair have passed away. They were greatly missed due the harmony. Great to see the reaction you both had
the middle guy is named Barry , he is the oldest brother , but he is the only one still alive .
The way you're liking this now, is the way we liked it in the 70s. These guys are all brothers and Barry Gibb, the one in the middle, is the only one still living. I can tell you exactly why you're liking this. The harmony is fantastic, you can understand all of the words, and it's one of those tunes that you'll be singing all day long. These are all what we were feeling when we first heard them so many years ago. A good song will always be a good song. I happy you're finding these older tunes for you to love and to pass them down to younger generations.
By doing that, younger performers to come will be inspired to write songs like this and restart the style that made the Bee Gee's so popular and well loved. There are so many songs left by these guys that you haven't heard yet, you both are in for treat. Enjoy....
They are brothers. Only one left. His two brothers died. Beautiful music.
It's like they invented harmony. Live band, no auto tune, no computerized voice enhancement and one mic for all three of them. Back then (1979). singing was just pure, raw talent. By the date of this recording, the BeeGees had already been singing together professionally for 21 years when Barry was 12 years old and the twins were just 9. All of the Gibb brothers including little brother, Andy, could sing in that amazing falsetto voice. But Barry was the master. He was able to exorcise more control over it. The Gibbs were, in my opinion, the most multi-talented families in music history. They wrote their own songs as well as writing songs for many other musical greats.This song was included on a compilation album to benefit UNICEF. There were many artists who recorded songs on the album, but the BeeGees gave all the royalties from this song in any form. In, at that time, an unprecedented move, they also gave UNICEF the publishing rights to Too Much Heaven. To date, Too Much Heaven has raised over 11 million dollars for UNICEF. In 1967, they wrote a song called To Love Somebody which appeared on their third album titled BeeGees 1st, but their first internationally, as the first two albums were only released in Australia. BeeGees 1st was released in July '67. Otis Redding was set to record To Love Somebody on his next album. Sadly, Otis was killed in a plane crash, Dec 10,1967. I thought for the longest time that they didn't record it themselves until after the death of Otis Redding. Their brother Andy Gibb had a very successful solo career as well until his death on March 10,1988. Just 5 days after turning 30. Andy had developed myocarditis, inflammation of the heart, which was brought on by a viral infection While most people recover from myocarditis, Andy's body was unable to fight the infection due to his history of drug use. Soo sad!
As one Bible worshiper to another, thanks for your reactions. And if you like The Bee Gees, you might want to investigate their earlier work from the late 60's, like "Lonely Days" or "To Love Somebody".
i grew up on this music . i loved all of their music . they had a younger brother named Andy Gibb who was really good , but he died at 30 years old . my favorite song that he had was Shadow Dancing .
"Jive talkin'", "Nights on broadway" and "Love you inside out" should be next
You Should Be Dancing and Stayin’ Alive, as well.
Words as well.
Maurice put it perfectly 1 bee gee is okay 2 is good 3 is perfection
I'm calling you on it, it's the BEE GEES!! Lol, great video as ever. Fun couple :-)
The Bee Gees wrote over 1000 songs and Barry is still writing. You have a lot of delight ahead of you because every one of their songs is amazing!!! 💜👏🤗
I love reaction videos. Love when the reactor knows a bit about the artist/artists.
Barry make it seam so effortless, hands of hips and just belting out the notes
This was in 1979. The middle guy is Barry Gibb. He's the oldest brother. The other 2 are twins. Robin is on the left and Maurice on the right. Both Robin & Maurice have passed away.
Barry Gibb, whom is the middle guy, is the lead singer. The group was named after him, Bee (Barry) Gibb (Gees). Barry wrote, and produced all the songs and music for their records.
I love the sincere look in Livy's eyes. You can tell she digs this sound.
The Bee Gees was comprised of Barry Gibb and his two brothers, twins Maurice and Robin. Maurice died unexpectedly in 2003 from complications of a twisted intestine, and Robin died nine years later in 2012 after his health declined due to similar problems.Jun 20, 2017
This was recorded in the 1970s folks. All brothers , all 3 brothers have amazing solo voices too.
1979 so yeah older ! Glad you liked the song 👍🏻 it’s very beautiful ♥️
This performance was in the recording studio in 1978-79. They recorded the song for a children's charity. Plus, the song came out a little after the Saturday Night Fever Soundtrack which was done in 77-78. Barry,Maurice, and Robin Gibb (Maurice was on the right and Robin was on the left. They were twins). Barry was in the middle.
Unfortunately Robin Gibb passed away from a stroke and Maurice passed from lung cancer. They had another brother named Andy. Barry wrote a few songs for him like "I just want to be your everything", "shadow dancing", (our love) Don't Throw it All Away", and "Love is thicker than water". But, when was just 30, he passed away from a drug overdose.
Please pick out some of those songs and they'll be good for you.
All Proceeds from this song were donated to feed hungry children, Unicef.
I just seen a video from an Australian variety show in 1963. Brother Gibbs aka Bee Gees: Barry, Robin, and Maurice were in their teens singing a song. I figured out their ages during this time: Barry was 16, Robin and Maurice were 14. Barry still sings today with his own band. His son, Steve Gibb plays guitar with the band. Someone mentioned about their younger brother, Andy Gibb died in 1988.
The BeeGees wrote over 1,000 songs, for themself and MANY other Top
Musicians. They also have the 2nd highest selling Single Album in History - 63 MILLION. In their career together, (60's - 90's) they sold over 220 MILLION albums, so what they did seemed to work :-)
They were incredibly successful, particularly in the late 70s but they didn't sell that many albums. By any official and accredited sales charts, they don't make the top 10 of groups. I've checked it out several times before. The Beatles are at number 1. Abba are at number 10. In between it's all classic rock band, such as Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Eagles, The Rolling Stones, AC/DC, Queen etc.
@@Codex7777 check again the only one that beats them is the beatles, and islands in the stream is best selling country and western song
@@fredklimenko3311 - I've checked this many times over. It's you that needs to check again. The Bee Gees don't make the top10. Also, I'm presuming the album you're referring to is Saturday Night Fever? It's the 7th biggest selling album of all-time, with 40 million sales. More importantly it's not a Bee Gees album. It's a film soundtrack album featuring several different artists. Even more importantly, none of their other albums trouble the top 200. In contrast, a band like Zeppelin had every album, except their debut, go to number 1 in both the UK and the US, as well as numerous other countries. Even their debut was top 10. This includes several of the biggest selling albums of all-time. Including Led Zeppelin IV, which is only a couple of million behind Saturday Night Fever. It's a similar story with Pink Floyd, whose Dark Side of the Moon is the 3rd biggest selling album of all-time and which holds the record for most weeks on the Billboard album chart, by a mile! Having spent close to 1000 weeks on the chart. That's almost 20 years! They also have several other albums in the top 100 biggest sellers. I know this because I've checked and double-checked, when discussing the topic with diehard fans, of various bands, who've made similar exaggerated claims for their favourite act. My favourite was an Abba fan that was claiming more than 2 billion record sales for Abba. That would have meant Abba selling more than The Beatles, Elvis Presley, Led Zeppelin, Michael Jackson and Pink Floyd combined!
Zeppelin and Floyd are also in the top 3, when it comes to best selling back catalogues. Even today their albums outsell most contemporary artists. It's a similar story, to a slightly lesser degree, for acts like Queen and The Rolling Stones. In contrast, the Bee Gees back catalogue doesn't trouble any contemporary charts.
Very good!! React For whom the bell tolls live Bee Gees...
The only surviving member of the Bee Gees, Barry Gibb, says he sometimes "hears and sees" his late brothers. Robin died in 2012 aged 62, nine years after his twin Maurice. The youngest Gibb brother - Andy - died of a heart attack aged 30 in 1988.
This song came out in 1977.. Barry Gibb, the one in the middle, is the oldest and Maurice and Robin Gibb are on the right and left. Maurice and Robin are twins and they have both died. Barry is still performing. They started in 1958 at the ages of 12 and nine and went through the 60's, 70's, 80's, 90's and more. They wrote for others also.
5 decades. 3 brothers - Robin (whose falsetto is allegedly higher than Barry’s) and Maurice. Barry usually has his guitar. Maurice (the “little one,” as you put it) usually has a bass or keyboard. There’s a considerably younger brother, Andy, who died tragically just as he was supposed to join the group. He had his own solo career. Barry and Robin usually split who sings lead, but most Barry. Maurice passed. Next and the. Robin. Barry is the oldest and the only one left. And yes, Barry still performs with two of his sons. Always loved Barry’s hair! They just kept changing with the times. My fave group of all time. There’s a documentary on HBO(?) about them on now. I also love You Win Again and Fallen Angel (Caroline). Barry didn’t always use the falsetto because he didn’t know he could! Watch the doc!
They have lots and lots of great songs. Check out "you should be dancing" That one has all 4 brothers performing.
The lead singer Is Barry Gibb is now 74 years old to two others are his younger brothers Maurice and Robin. Maurice passed away in 2001 and Robin passed away in 2012.
you didnt see how cold he was when he first leaned into the mic. That was fire!
Thank you. Yes, more Bee Gee's "Stayin Alive"
They are the epitome of Greatness and Awesomeness!!!
"How Deep Is Your Love is the 🎵 song you're talking of...they also performed the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack...
The group is three brothers. Been singing together for 50 years up until early 200 when the two on the outside died suddenly(cancer and a botched heart surgery respectively). Barry in the middle still sings with a band but has stated he still misses his brothers terribly. They had three big runs from the late 50s, then 70s when the high pitch harmonies started and late 80s which is when this came out I think. Large catalog of hits they sang and where they just wrote for others starting in the 80s and 90s. Deep dive these guys. You'll love it all. Great to see younger folks getting into this old school stuff again.
Hey fun kids, just gonna let y'all know this song was released back in 1977. The two younger brothers passed away and Barry is still alive. He's about 72 yr old. They ruled the 70's.
These guys are dope this came out in 1978. two of these guys are deceased. The one in the middle is the only one left alive. These guys were awesome.
I know I'm young but i know and love the Bee Gees cuz i grew up with those kind of songs and those are really great songs
Bee Gees' biggest bangers in chronological order: You Should Be Dancing (1976), How Deep Is Your Love (1977), More Than a Woman (1977), Stayin' Alive (1977), Night Fever (1978), Too Much Heaven (1978), Tragedy (1979), Alone (1997)
they wrote over 1000 songs. lots for others.
As far as i know, Michael jackson was a fan of beegees
He was! In fact, he and Barry were very good friends. Michael Jackson was the Godfather of Barry’s son, Michael.
@@elainecresie7913 they did song together
Yes he did:) He would call up Barry and ask him to sing How To Mend A Broken Heart to him over the phone.
All the proceeds from this goes to Unicef. From the day it was released back in 1976 to this date in 2020 it has raised more than 10 million dollars.
Song originally recorded in 1978. So about four decades before the 2017 date of the upload. :) Is a classic. The Bee Gees are an amazing band and have a load of classics not just the songs they sing themselves but the many songs they wrote for other artists too. :)
They were a 70's group Barry the one in the middle is still performing. The other two are deceased.
Barry Gibb in the middle is the only Bee Gee left and is 74 years old. The other two are his younger brothers, Robin (without a beard) and Maurice (with a beard) have both passed away. Maurice in 2003 and Robin in 2012.
They are finally getting the respect they deserve those guys have some of the greatest Hits 3 Brother's just having fun singing together
Finally getting the respect they deserve ? These guys had everybody's respect from way back. The other artists that these guys wrote songs for is crazy long. These guys are legends in the music industry.
People who liked Disco gave them respect im from the south side of Chicago and was there when disco was blown up at comiskey Park after that night disco was dead and so were alot of artists careers it wasn't kool to like the Bee Gees so ya its good to see people who don't know them lov there music
@@ricoalvarado54 One last quick comment, these guys were a thing way before disco was a thing. Disco was just one more genre they nailed moving forward. And when I read south side of Chicago, Ha Ha, automatically went to the night Chicago died. Lots of good music out there.
This came in the 70’s kids, and there’s only one BeeGee left and that’s Barry Gibb. The song too much heaven was actually released in 1967.
"Oh you make my world a summer day"...Ahhhhh GREAT REACTION!
Dat boy said naw foreal I like that😂😂😂
Lol
The Bee Gees are from a different reality. Love your reactions.
Why The Bee Gees ?
Mother’s name, Barbara Gibb (BG)
Lead singer, Barry Gibb (BG)
Twin brothers, Brothers Gibb (BG)
First sponsor/DJ, Bill Gates (BG)
Hope that helps one to remember the pronunciation of their group.
It was a symphony playing & they did not routinely accompany The Bee Gees, however the Bee Gees did have 3 instrumental players since early in their career.
Both twins are long gone now & Barry, the eldest, has suffered with severe chronic pain for decades, which one would never know watching them in concert.
1978 is when it came out
After the 85th pause I bailed out
They made the song in 1978. They are all brothers from the United Kingdom. They also had a baby brother name Andy Gibbs that recorded as well. Andy died from a OD at the age of 30. They are all deceased except the middle brother. You should check out the life of the Gibb Brother's, very interesting. But also, quite devastating what happened to them in the music industry. Love them!!
This song came out in like 1979. The middle brother who is Barry Gibb, is the only one alive now. His other two brothers are deceased.
This was 1979. Barry Gibb in the middle is still alive. His brothers Robin and Mauris have passed away.
the bee gees short for The Brothers Gibb ...the two on the outside Morris in black and Robin in white were twins and have both passed away and gone to that heaven... only Barry the eldest left ... ... this was out about 1978 but they were singing together from the late 1950s as kids... they had hits in the 1960s ...great to see young people enjoying the music from a great era...and yeah you guys wouldv enjoyed that era can see it in your eyes..really was a great time to be young
