- Опубліковано 1 жов 2024
- "Massachusetts" is a song by the Bee Gees, released in 1967. Written by Barry, Robin & Maurice Gibb. Robin Gibb sang lead vocals on this song and it would become one of his staple songs to perform during concerts on both Bee Gees and his solo concerts. It later appeared on their 1968 album, Horizontal.
The song became the first of the group's five No. 1 hits in the UK, reached No. 1 in twelve other countries, peaked at No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 and eventually became one of the best-selling singles of all time, selling over five million copies worldwide. When the brothers wrote the song, they had never been to Massachusetts. In a UK television special on ITV in December 2011, it was voted third (behind "How Deep Is Your Love" and "You Win Again") in "The Nation's Favourite Bee Gees Song".

Lyrics
Feel I'm goin' back to Massachusetts
Something's telling me I must go home
And the lights all went down in Massachusetts
The day I left her standing on her own
Tried to hitch a ride to San Francisco
Gotta do the things I wanna do
And the lights all went down in Massachusetts
They brought me back to see my way with you
Talk about the life in Massachusetts
Speak about the people I have seen
And the lights all went down in Massachusetts
And Massachusetts is one place I have seen
What a brilliant tribute to the Bee Gees you have played Dave!
So simple yet so effective!
Much respect,my friend!
Cheers
Geoff.

DAVE is one of the best guitar players there will never be one again like DAVE i have is music on all day
I wish to meet this man someday before i die and thank him for making every morning a brilliant memory listening to his tunes!!
I have just seen your comment on this tune (Massachusetts) you made two months ago.
I'm very sorry but I didn't see it before as it was classed as a spam message.
Anyway, I'd like to accept your thanks and want you to know that getting great feedback like this is what its all about and makes it all worthwhile.
So a big thank you to you for letting me know.
Take care,
Dave
Hi Dave,
WOW ! The best version I've heard so far. Beautiful tone and your playing is so emotional ! You remind me of Robin Gibb and my younger days ! Thanks. BTU&5*****
All the best, JP.
Gracias por escuchar mi música.
Saludos cordiales
David
Great achievement David Monk, this melody recently inspired me to launch a philosophical message, and I needed an instrumental version to materialize that message and your version seemed perfect to me. I wanted to ask if I can use it; I do not have any commercial and economic interest, only for personal use with an entertainment purpose and to send that message to the one who visualizes my file. If you do not agree to use the melody I have no problem in removing the video. regards
It's so lovely and romantic with your great performance! I really liked it. Many thanks for pleasant moments!
Merry Christmas to you and your family! 🎸❤🎄❤🎸
Já ouvi umas centenas de vezes!!! Maravilhosa!!!
Hi Sunny,
thank you very much.
I agree the backing track is superb.
Kind regards
Dave
Que música maravilhosa eu não canso de ouvir
Viajo nos tempos dos anos 60 😉
Many thanks.
This is a slower than usual backing track that really suits the tune.
Best Regards,
Dave
Thank you,
sleep well,
God bless,
Dave
Hi Dave - I've got a chair just like that - do you find the arms get in the way when you play the guitar and you have to sit on the edge of it. LOL
Back to the song - yes makes a very nice instrumental and you played it very well - great tribute to Robin.
All the best... Phil
É simplesmente maravilhoso, você é fantástico.💕👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Hi Klaas,
Thank you so much.
Yes the Bee Gees music is superb.
You have a great day too.
Kind Regards
Dave

Hermosa música instrumental tocas la guitarra hermoso

Hi Phil,
Yes...spot on!
I have searched high and low for a comfortable chair with quickly detachable arms.
So far no success under a small fortune.
If I'm doing the green screen I swap it for a stool, so it doesn't show.
I like the comfort of the arm chair for general computing.
Thanks.
All the best
Dave
Hi Ian,
It sounds as if you might have liked it!
I agree the backing track is superb. Others are too fast.
I put quite a bit of thought into how I was going to do the ending.
I don't use the expression pedal enough because I have my pedal on a keyboard tray in the desk, and I am too lazy to get it on the floor.
Really pleased you liked it 'cause I do too! LOL
All the best
Dave
Hi Dave!
This is an excellent version of this Bee Gee's classic and played beautifully with a great tone and lots of feeling in your phrasing. Robin's loss was so sudden but he will always be remembered along with the music he helped to create
Best Wishes
Chris
Hi Chris,
Thank you very much.
I really enjoyed your version of this song.
Yes the Bee Gees will live on in their music.
All the best
Dave
Hi Geoff,
Thank you very much.
People seem to like this version and I'm pleased because I like it too.
Thanks again
Dave
Werbung muss in Deutschland Verboten werden....ab 20...00 Uhr dürfen keine Werbung erfolgen
Gericht müsse dafür sorgen daß die Menschen ihren Abend Programme ohne die Werbung sehen können.....
Das müsse in Deutschland umgesetzt werden...Dankeschön.... !
Hi Malcolm,

This is a particularly good backing track.

Dave
Hi Ray,

OldGuitarMonkey and geoffers47 are my two favorite instrumentalist players. I never tire or seem to get enough of their playing.
I just wish I were able to play like them.
Thank you Dan for your lovely comment.
The music will live on.
Kind Regards
Dave
Hi Brian,
Yes its amazing how many songs the Bee Gees wrote for other singers/groups.
The were an awesome team together.
All the best
Dave
Hi Eric,
I chose a slow backing track especially as it carries so much more emotion in it.
Thank you kindly,
Dave
High Dave Monkey Tonight, I'm listening to Busy's Masachusetsu, I've always liked this group, I've been listening to your performance, I've been listening to it nostalgic, even if I take it, your performance is smooth Even if I take the sound, I'm listening to it, and I feel sad and soak into my heart. Thank you for the wonderful performance even if I take it. I'll listen slowly.
Emocionante.lindo. encantador. Brasília-Df. Brasil

Hi, Dave :
Great sound here, and I agree, that the slower tempo and change of key are more suited to the message you're trying to convey, which is a tribute to Robin, who has left us much too soon.
Wonderful job, Dave !
Regards,
Dan.
Thanks Hugh,
