Tysheen, Andy was born in 1958 so he was only 10 years old when his brothers were singing here. He died in 1988, 5 days after his 30th birthday. I'd love for you to react to several of Robin's leads, "I Can't See Nobody", another song from this same time period, as well as "I Started a Joke". You'll really get to know what a beautiful voice (with that wonderful vibrato) Robin really has. Please use their 1974 Melbourne concert for your reaction for "I Can't See Nobody". This is a great source for reacting to many of their late 60's to early 70's hits where Robin often had the lead or shared leads with big brother Barry, like on "I Gotta Get a Message to You". I always suggest their 1989 Melbourne concert for "I Started a Joke" however, because I really feel that this performance was his very best one. The audience agreed since they gave him a standing ovation that lasted almost one minute. If you react to these two Robin leads using the concerts suggested, I promise that you won't be disappointed!
I was 8 years old and cried buckets lol i was a sensitive kid - which means i spent a lot of time in both laughter and tears in the 60s and 70s lol; we had all the music. If you love this and are knocked out by the harmonics, please try Jethro Tull, Yes and of course Pink Floyd. I'm following your channel , this is so much fun for us old people! Almost makes me want to do an "old people react to young people" 😂💞
Very nice reaction. Maurice had a sweet and soft voice. I adore when he's singing lead. He did it on several songs , for example: "Man in the middle", "Trafalgar", "You know it's for you", "Man in the middle", "On time", "Railroad", "Lay it on Me", "Country Woman", "On Time", "The loner", "Walking on air", "All by myself"(1966), "Hold her in your hand", "Dimensions", "House of shame", "Suddenly", "Overnight", "Omega man", "Country man","Angel of mercy", "Above and beyond", "Wildflower", ‘’Lonely winter’’, ....and don’t forget his unissued LP "THE LONER" etc,. ...
Gotta love the Brothers Gibb. My favorites of theirs are like this one, long before the Disco years. I Started A Joke, New York Mining Disaster 1941, Every Christian Lion Hearted Man Will Show You, &c &c.
What's always so thrilling to me is the way, they bring the verses, whoever does lead, to their three-part-harmony choruses, which are unbeatable good. Barry dominates here, so he's always singing the first voice, Robin second, what's kinda difficult, so he's singing first voice on verse and Maurice with his great sense for music, doin' third voice so easily, but it's not if you try it. Over the years, Maurice did lots of leads on songs like 'Lonely Winter', 'All By Myself', 'Where Are You', 'Kitty Can', 'Suddenly', 'My Thing', 'Railroad', 'Lay It On Me', 'It's Just The Way', 'You know It's For You, 'On Time', 'Country Woman', 'Trafalgar', 'Wildflower', 'House Of Shame', 'Dimensions', 'Overnight', 'Omega Man', 'Angel Of Mercy', 'Above And Beyond', 'Closer Than Close, 'Hold Her In Your Hand', 'The Bridge', 'Walking On Air' and 'Man In The Middle'. Rather complete list, so go on! But did you know, that he was on british singer Lulu's (his first wife) TV-Show, where they did a heartbreaking duet of the Bee Gees classic 'First Of May'. To me, a must to check out!
Maurice was there playing base and wearing a vest over a white shirt. Barry would be about 21 and the twins 18, so Andy (12 years younger than Barry) was only about 9 at this time. Maybe react to ROBIN GIBB SAVED BY THE BELL for one of Robin’s early solo songs written and recorded without Barry, and MAURICE GIBB ON TIME for one of his early solo songs written and recorded without his brothers. Andy had a different quality (almost hoarseness??) in his voice that sets it apart from Barry, but they are similar. React to ANDY GIBB SHADOW DANCING to help you hear his voice.
So Interesting, any younger person wouldn't even know "you ain't gotta dime, there's not time for the phone.." in the song, meant, it took 10 cents to make payphone call back then. Most won't even know what a "payphone" is/was?
Maurice was up there. He was playing guitar/bass I can't remember which. Andy wasn't a part of the Bee Gees. This song is about a man who is being executed for murder. I have now seen five reactions and only one got it.
Robin and Maurice were only 18 years old at this time!
I was 15 when this came out, I loved it. My favourite was 'I started a joke'.
LOVE THEM AND LOVE THIS SONG...GO ROBIN

Just love it. Fanny be tender and Mr Natural and I can't see nobody live in 74.
For Maurice, "Man in the Middle"
For Robin , "For whom the bell tolls"
bee gees love you inside out
i agree andy and barry have similar voices i think robin is on another level though
Barry sings this as a duet with Keith Urban on Barry's new CD, "Greenfields". Always have loved this song!
Gotta love the Brothers Gibb. My favorites of theirs are like this one, long before the Disco years. I Started A Joke, New York Mining Disaster 1941, Every Christian Lion Hearted Man Will Show You, &c &c.
Quincy Jones said the best rhythm n' blues song was The Bee Gees
doing 'Fannie-Be Tender With my love'. The falsettos are unreal !
Andy was 30 in 1988 and died that same year soon after his birthday.
Andy brought out his own album which I bought and I loved that too. I can't remember what year it was though.
Please react to the Bee Gees Song Man in the Middle if you want to hear Maurice sing lead.
MAN IN THE MIDDLE is from their last album together and has a live version available.
Okay, thanks
I believe it was the second #1 in UK to BEE GEES
(the first was Massachussets in 1967)

Wow. I'm going to check those videos.

If you want to hear Maurice, listen to Man In The Middle, and for Robin's best song, either For Whom The Bell Tolls, or his solo hit, Juliet.
Words and Run to me are great ones. I like Robins voice best.
Andybpassed in 1988. He would have been 10 in 68
Andy would have been 10 years old at this time.
Andy was to young at this time. He passed in 1988, right before he was going to join the group.
Awwww
Can you please react to “The lady of heaven trailer?”❤️😀
