I literally laughed out loud when they said "I've never heard The Bee Gee's", and patiently waited for the "Ooooooohhhh" as soon as the intro played. They did not disappoint.
yeah lol, Same. And similarly Queen. Queens career never took off in the US, though their songs did. sounds weird, but especially before that movie a few years ago, SOOOO many people would have no idea who the band queen was if you asked them, but they would almost certainly know at least 5 of their songs lol. THat movie kinda ruined it for me, but I used to love just asking people if they heard of the band queen, and if they hadnt, getting a chuckle out of naming off their major hits: We Will Rock You, We are the Champions, Another one Bites the Dust, Bohemian Rhapsody... Each song they are slightly more shocked that the SAME BAND that they had NOT HEARD OF played all of those songs.
3 brothers singing and performing since childhood ..... the voices you hear are their own ..... no autotune ..... they mastered one of the most difficult vocal techniques ... 3 part harmony in falsetto. A monster super group ......their music will live forever.
And not to forget there was a 4th younger brother with the same singing chops too. One talented family. Born English and then raised in Australia, so we both get to claim them.
@@LeftSideoftheDash Oh yeah, a few songs they did well together. I was thinking about the Jacksons when they were young as well. Though All the Gibbs brothers were lyrical geniuses since they were kids.
The Bee Gees not only wrote their own songs, they also wrote songs for others such as Diana Ross & Barbara Streisand among others. These 3 brothers were remarkable.
Yep they wrote over a thousand different songs. That shit is crazy good. They would write the music, play it in the studio then just create the lyrics to go with it.
Not to mention, these guys, the BEE GEES, the Gibb brothers, wrote all their own music, played all the instruments, produced it …they were the real deal ! And we can’t forget Andy RIP…Blast from the past ! 😍
I grew up in the 70's and 80's. It cannot be disputed that it was the best time for music. The talent, experimentation, and legendary music exploded onto the scene in those two decades. And it still holds today. The Bee Gees were (are still are) one of the best of the era.
As a child of the 70s, it baffles me to see so many reaction channels are surprised that auto-tune wasn’t always around. Any song that came out before the mid-90s did NOT have auto tune. Period. Only natural genuine talent. ABBA, Queen, Journey… all of the greats had to have real talent to make it in the biz. Great reaction! Love you guys 💕
Wrong...Auto tuning has basically been around since the 70s. Back in the day it was called "Pitch Correction". And I would bet money Journey used it once they sold out and got Perry in the band. Steve Perry turned a hard rock fusion band into a top 40 teeny bopper girly band. The fact that you mentioned them with Abba proves my point. I was in a rock band the 7th grade 1971(and am still playing). So you might say I was a child of the 70s too.
@@daveaglasgow It was call pitch correction in the 70s and many top 40 artists used it. Then in the 90s it was called auto tuning and used as an effect rather than a tool. In the beginning it was used to actually keep the vocals on pitch. Then it was used as a gimmick.
"Auto-Tune was originally intended to disguise or correct off-key inaccuracies, allowing vocal tracks to be perfectly tuned despite originally being slightly off-pitch. The 1998 Cher song "Believe" popularized the technique of using Auto-Tune to distort vocals." From Wikipedia It was the top 40 artists/producers that ruined a good tool for vocals.
Their talent for songwriting was right up there with the best! Something that is overlooked because so many artists don't write their own songs! Lionel Richie is also an amazing writer and performer. Their songs have been covered by many great artists.
Finally, they wrote most of their own songs and songs for others back in the days. And they were golden for decades, not just 1 hit wonders.

The iconic brothers Gibb (BeeGees) began singing as a group when they were children iin the late '50s and by 2012 had sold over 250,000 million records. They have had No 1 hits in every decade. Sadly, the younger twins, Robin and Maurice, have passed away and only older brother Barry is still living. Their music -- including all the hits they wrote for other artists -- will live forever. Their ability to harmonize naturally is amazing.
Too Much Heaven? Please. Nights On Broadway or Fanny (Be Tender With My Love)-the vocal tracks on that one are so complex they couldn't reproduce it live.
And he is the oldest. The Bee Gees are the Brothers Gibb. The wrote and produce their music and have written for many other stars. They have a catalog goes on forever.
I love y'all's reaction to my generations music. In my opinion I had the best music & band's ever. Thank you for giving my generation's music a chance. As I would say in the day ✌️&❤️ my friend
There was this thing called "roller disco" back in the '70s, and this song was so much fun to skate to. You're just cruising around the rink, under the disco ball, lights everywhere, your "bell bottoms" flapping backward, your long hair flowing in the air, music blaring. Great memories. 🙂
Now that you’ve opened the Bee Gees can, you must listen to Too Much Heaven. Their harmonies are perfection and Barry’s voice is heaven. It’s a panty dropper.
And so many more. How Deep Is Your Love, I Started a Joke, Emotion (Theirs and Samantha Sang's version), Lonely Days, Massachusetts, Jive Talkin', I've Gotta Get A Message To You, on and on
They wrote over a 1000 songs and wrote for many top artist! Their music was considered Disco and I loved every song they produced. They had such massive talent it’s unreal to think of and the singing was natural, no auto tune, lots of amazing talent. Sad to think that Barry is the sole survivor of them all. Their younger brother “Andy Gibb” died at 30 and he was very talented as well but got he caught up in the drug scene. Thos group was a massive part of my youth and I enjoy watching your video’s.
And they were around long before the disco movement. My roommate in college was a disco queen. I used to keep a stack of paperbacks next to my bed to throw at her when she was getting ready for her early classes listening to this stuff. Though, I think the BeeGees music from that era held up pretty well. I was much fonder of their '60's hits.
It's so entertaining, as an oldie, to see young people reacting to the music of my era. I am SO glad I grew up when I did because the music was effing fabulous.
I agree. I would play originals for kids when they would play Rap songs using samples. These videos while old at the time were never played on MTV's early years.
Exactly LT. How many groups do you know of today that you can say that they had 5 decades of hits and they just kept on goin? Yeah, get back to me when you come up with an answer to that one. The BeeGees were insanely cool AND talented. 🔥🔥🔥 None of that phony autotune for these guys. They were always the real deal. ♥♥♥♥💂♀💂♀💂♀😉😉😉
The main guy with the fly hair is Barry Gibb and he is the second most successful song writer in history. 16 billboard #1s...The Bee Gees had 9 #1's, 15 top 10 hits and 43 in the top 100s. Legends
I love it. He said "if you hear this thing first thing in the morning, you about to clean up the house"😂😂😂 PS fellas: this part of the Bee Gee's we're not on drugs. They were just that good. ❤️ Love them all still today.
These brothers were all genres over a 50 year period. They kept evolving with over a thousand songs and also wrote for other artists. Musical geniuses. It was the 70s.
This new generation have no idea what they have missed out on we had real music real people n original Style back in the day most importantly we had real family and friends,,, man I sure miss those days,,,
70s disco fellas!!! Because I'm a bit you for them but my mum loved them I just did not realise how cool they were. This video shows exactly how cool they were!! Superb musicians
This is around 1976-77 and they were THE MOST FAMOUS GROUP IN THE WORLD THEN. Only Barry is still living the other two brothers died within the past 12 years. Barry is 76 and is STILL married to the same woman for over 50 years and was faithful to her and they have 4 or 5 kids. They are English but raised in Australia. They started out singing when they were older children. They've had so many hits and they were BFF's with Michael Jackson. Y'all should see the movie Saturday Night Fever with John Travolta dancing if you haven't already came out in 1977. Your friend with the curly mullet is a style from the early to mid 80's. Many white men permed their hair in the 70's it's funny and some of them look ridiculous your friend ought to get a 70's fro!
@@brendaclark8344 I'm sorry just saw your reply now! THAT'S AWFUL! How Irresponsible! Was it in Nashville? I am from Knoxville, TN East of Nashville. We don't always get wind of everything like that goes on in middle TN. THAT IS SO STUPID! You don't throw a cigarette on a old wood porch! And it's rude to do that at someone's house whether it's Barry or anybody. Most smokers I've known in the past will wet their cigarette under a faucet and throw it in the trash and won't even smoke in your house. Responsible smokers are respectful of others. I assume he was fired and I wonder if charges were pressed?
@@paigecat9104 Not to mention their little brother Andy who was just as talented as they were. They wanted him to be in the group from the beginning but he was too young. He died at age 30. It was basically a severe heart problem that came from his years of drug abuse. Cocaine most of all weakened his heart. He had just celebrated his 30th birthday 5 days before his death and the worst part is that Barry, Robin and Maurice were *just about to finally add him to the group. They were about to make him the 4th Bee Gee at last but he died before he could get his chance to finally sing with his brothers just like he always wanted.* It's sad. And even more sad that Barry is the last one left having to live the rest of his life missing all of his brothers terribly. Yes he still has his sister Lesley (the oldest child in the family and the only girl who is never ever talked about at all) but it's still heartbreaking.
@@truthseeker9249 Oh I know! I remember when he died and was shocked! His poor mother how hard that was on her for going through losing her baby boy he was the youngest and was a Mama's boy which isn't a bad thing but precious. I remember he dated Victoria Principle and she broke up with him due to his drug use and the public really blamed her for dumpling him and she let them didn't reveal till later why. That's grace. He was so talented and handsome like Barry.
I grew up in the 70s and 80's ... hands down the best era in music ever. We ushered in MTV (back when it only played music) and had just great music. But the Bee Gees started performing in 1958 as a kids group, and as music changed they did as well. They last multiple decades until one of them (Maurice) died in 2003 from a twisted intestine. Robin died in 2012 from Cancer and Barry (the oldest) is still alive and performing at 76.
These guys were incredibly talented. Check out the sheer number of songs they have written - for themselves and for other artists. They are the sound of my youth.
These guys performed for more than 50 years before the first one died in 2003!! They were placed in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and were recently named as experts in the Australian Songwriters Association just a few weeks ago! Bee Gees stands for Brothers Gibb. They used to sing in their bedroom as kids when Barry (the one in the middle) was 6 and the twins were 3! Their mother thought her sons were listening to the radio but it was actually them singing! The twins are Robin (Red shirt) and Maurice (pronounced Morris). They are a true class act! This song is 1970s disco!! This group performed beginning in the 1950s and their last album was released in 2001! They’ve changed their style over the decades to keep up with the change in music over the years. Listen to a song from the 1960s from this group and then listen to a more recent song and you would NEVER know it was the same group. To Love Somebody is a good one from the 1960s and You Win Again is more recent. Sounds like a different group!! R. I. P. Robin and Maurice, we love and miss you!!🫶
😲. Can’t believe y’all have never heard of The Bee Gees (aka Brothers Gibb…Barry, Robin & Maurice Gibb)! They were the Disco phenomenon in the 70’s! Sooo many great songs! Go down the rabbit hole, & listen to ALL The Bee Gees songs! You won’t regret it!
This is from the soundtrack album to Saturday Night Fever, which they wrote entirely. This was for a while, the biggest selling album in history. Sad that Barry is the only one left. BeeGees are LEGENDARY!
They did not write the whole Saturday Night Fever album. They wrote seven of the 16 songs. Two of the 7 were on previous Bee Gees albums. Three had been already written and recorded for an upcoming album they were working on. The Bee Gees weren't even asked for songs until the movie was in post production.
@@OhJodi69 to clarify, and i understand your direction, i meant the song in question, not the whole album. I see where my phrasing seemed like the other. Good looking out bud
**They didn't have no auto-tune...think about that!!!** True story! And musicians played instruments! Love to see the appreciation for the older music, always.
It's amazing how the Younger Generations have started listening to 60's, 70's, even 80's. When it wasn't that long ago that they Laughed about it all. All I can say is, Welcome to the Older people. Not so bad now, IS IT😊
This is my generations music, and it's why I never wanted to leave (grow up). Everyone needs to listen to vocalists without auto tune. It really shows where true talent is.
Honestly this guy's voice is too amazing to even be real sometimes. These guys could do it on request live, no autotune no backing tracks. I wish I really got into these guys earlier in my life but I'm glad I eventually went down the rabbit hole
I don't know how anyone couldn't like the Bee Gees their songs are classic from this era! I think even John Lydon aka Johnny Rotten from the Sex Pistols likes the Bee Gees and Dave Grohl from the Foo Fighters. It's just good music.
These guys launched out of Redcliffe, Queensland-Australia. Small seaside town in North Brisbane, Australia. One of my fav places in the world to live. No auto-tune..straight banger that will never get too old!
Yes, indeed. There was once a time when singers actually had to _be able to sing._ On their own. With no help. People went to concerts expected the band to sound the same as on the album. Imagine that. :D Love the Bee Gees, pretty much all of their 70's era stuff is absolute gold. They were the Kings of Disco. Another band you'd like from then is Wild Cherry - check out "Play That Funky Music". Funk was huge, HUGE in the 70's.
These days you take any artist into a recording studio and tell them they can't use a computer to cheat and they just look at you funny like you crazy LOL
True story. If you ever have to do CPR, your pumps should match the beat of this song. There are others, including Star Wars' "Imperial March", but the irony of this song being "Stayin' Alive" and being the correct beat to keep someone alive make it the one to remember. A few suggestions for future reactions (apologies if you've done them, I haven't checked your entire catalogue yet): Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Pentatonix, Alabama 3, Tori Amos, Heilung, Wardruna, the Chi-lites (Oh, Girl, and Have You Seen Her), and Marty Robbins (El Paso, Feleena, and El Paso City, in that order and/or Big Iron). Love the reactions, guys, keep it up! DZ
When I took CPR the instructor told us that we should chest compress to the beat of this song or Another One Bites the Dust. We all laughed but he wasn't kidding. Both have the right tempo, lol.
And believe it or not, it was the one thing that calmed me down when I was giving my fiance CPR. Focused on the music and just kept going until the ambulance arrived.
Their younger brother Andy was also a great singer and died young of drug overdose. Maurice had some kind of medical emergency & died which devastated Barry the lead singer. Robin because of a woman he married was ostracized by the family & died. The BeeGees were #1 hit making machines but they were SO popular & so everywhere that they became almost hated for several years before making a comeback. Their music is still exceptional today. Was fun to hear them again.
They have insanely ridiculous vocals 😱 and they’re the kings of harmonizing. Check out their songs: Too Much Heaven, How Deep is your Love, Night Fever, and Tragedy 🔥🔥🔥
It's funny watching the younger generations talking about "no autotune"....music was never meant to have autotune in the first place :D Back then, you had to have REAL talent to make it
How can you nit have heard of The Bee Gees the mind boggles . Great reaction lads love watching these reactions especially from young people to older songs n groups .
I can’t for the life of me understand people who purposely stick to one genre of music. I’m always so happy to see reactors like y’all explore music that is new to you. Real ones know that all music is inspired by each other across all genres. You don’t have to like it all but to refuse to listen is a sin fr.
Yes, as a lover of all genres of music, I agree. I raised my daughter and now my grandkids to love all types of music. My 18 y/o granddaughter tells me, people/friends, always ask her how do you know this song? -from 60s/70s/80s/90s...LOL
The Bee Gees was so awesome in concert! Bee Gees mean Brothers Gibb. When they where at the peak of Saturday Night Fever… the brothers did another album and did a world tour. Here is where their younger brother Andy joined them. In the matter of fact , they where going to add Andy to the group. Andy died at a young age of 30. Their music will live on forever!! The falsetto started in the albums before this!
How can anyone not be familiar with the Bee Gees music? They had hit after hit out for years, were highly talented and legendary. One of the top musical groups of all time. Glad that you finally listened to one of their songs.
They never heard The Beatles either before doing a review of one of their songs so don’t feel bad. Smh. Kids nowadays need to take music history or something.
Hmm! Let’s see I guess there’s rap and hip hop and what else is there! At least that’s probably what they listen to until they have a channel and finally discover other music!
@@bonnieinla how familiar were you, as a younger person, with the music of the early 30s? It is 45 years since Saturday Night Fever. Which is the same time as 1932 to 1977. Soooo......
Watching their reactions is priceless. I've laughed so much at their Righteous Brothers reviews that my sides hurt. Please keep posting these guys. Thanks So Much!
This song is so amazing the fire department, cops, EMTs and all medical staff have been trained to give CPR to the rhythm of this song. It's the "stayin' alive" rhythm for someone whose heart has stopped.
Twenty years from now there will not be a single song written after 1996 played on popular media, but songs from the 60's,70's,80's,90's will dominate the media.
Barry Gibb (lead vocalist) is by far one of the best singers with such an amazing range. FANTASTIC - thanks for reviving one of my favorite songs of the 70s! Long Live Disco!
My 1st concert in 77 Whitney Houston's Mother's group opened up for them. She was the backup singers for Elvis Presley. I was eleven years old the best harmony of brothers in history they sounded just as good LIVE
1977.… I’m 23 years old. O.C. Calif, out in the clubs 3-4 times per week. I was asked to dance by more Ladies to the Bee Gees Music than any other group. Easily over 100 times. One of the All Time Greatest Groups.
Barry gibb is the only brother still surviving. Absolutely tragic when you think of the music they where capable of. Chain reaction by Diana Ross, you can hear them in the background because they wrote it. Brilliant channel lads.
After I retired July 2020, I spent 2 years catching up on their songs. I viewed soooo many videos; talk shows; showing their families; their parents; feeling so sad when Maurice and Robin passed. Maurice was the one that was beginning to go bald. He embraced it. I saw a video where he said, "I'm Baldy Bee Gee." Then he smiled and laughed. He was my favorite. There's a video showing Barry at Robin's funeral. He kissed a rose, then placed in on Robin's casket. Michael Jackson was at the funeral. He stayed with Barry for a short time to get away from the troubles in his life. Sir Barry was 'knighted' by Prince Charles, who is now King Charles. Knighted means he received special recognition for his service to the music industry. His brothers received awards posthumously. There is another video where Barry is being interviewed, and tears started to come in his eyes.
The Bee Gees (The Brothers Gibb) Barry (singing lead), Robin and Maurice (cowriter with Barry). They had hits in the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and 00s. Try "Jive Talkin'", "Nights On Broadway", "You Should Be Dancing", "How Can You Mend A Broken Heart" for some other huge songs.
I literally laughed out loud when they said "I've never heard The Bee Gee's", and patiently waited for the "Ooooooohhhh" as soon as the intro played. They did not disappoint.

They were the Brothers Gibb. Really brothers. I think only one is still alive. This genre would be DISCO!
Same! 😂
Is that tom selleck there
Believe it or not, this song is 45 years old! Still as cool as 1977!
Farrrk I'm old. I remember when the movie came out and sneaking in because it was18+.
That’s how old my Mom is.
It will always be just as cool as it was then. 😎😎😎😎😎
Sheesh! I remember it like yesterday. !

3 brothers singing and performing since childhood ..... the voices you hear are their own ..... no autotune ..... they mastered one of the most difficult vocal techniques ... 3 part harmony in falsetto. A monster super group ......their music will live forever.

70s and 80s rule!!
No other group in music history harmonized like the Bee-Gees.
Check out Chromeo. A band out of Montreal. The Bee Gees even invited them out to their studio because they are so cool.

Yep they wrote over a thousand different songs. That shit is crazy good. They would write the music, play it in the studio then just create the lyrics to go with it.
Barry wrote or co-wrote something like 100 Top-40 songs!
THE most distinct, recognizable voice in the world.
Brian Johnson is up there
The Bee Gees did things with 3 part harmonies that will never be duplicated. Their early stuff, going back to the '60s was mind blowing.
The New York Mining Disaster was one of my faves. I loved the early stuff. When thet went into the Disco shit, I split...
No autotune - just lots of soul.
No auto tune, just plain talent.
Just imagine an age when a computer couldn't help you cheat to get a record contract --- it actually required real talent --- what a concept

And so many more. How Deep Is Your Love, I Started a Joke, Emotion (Theirs and Samantha Sang's version), Lonely Days, Massachusetts, Jive Talkin', I've Gotta Get A Message To You, on and on
Lol..Naive white people buying the phony reactions!
I feel if you can sing that any woman would be all over you from 20-60 xD
That's where the real sounds come from the 60s 70s 80s and 90s. Y'all young bloods don't know nothing about that other than it is GOOD 👍
They wrote over a 1000 songs and wrote for many top artist! Their music was considered Disco and I loved every song they produced. They had such massive talent it’s unreal to think of and the singing was natural, no auto tune, lots of amazing talent. Sad to think that Barry is the sole survivor of them all. Their younger brother “Andy Gibb” died at 30 and he was very talented as well but got he caught up in the drug scene. Thos group was a massive part of my youth and I enjoy watching your video’s.
And they were around long before the disco movement. My roommate in college was a disco queen. I used to keep a stack of paperbacks next to my bed to throw at her when she was getting ready for her early classes listening to this stuff. Though, I think the BeeGees music from that era held up pretty well. I was much fonder of their '60's hits.
It's so entertaining, as an oldie, to see young people reacting to the music of my era. I am SO glad I grew up when I did because the music was effing fabulous.
YES it was! Stands the test of time forever
I agree. I would play originals for kids when they would play Rap songs using samples. These videos while old at the time were never played on MTV's early years.
Oh to be 18 again and heading out to my local disco😊
@@Sofasurfayou're not kidding !!!!!
Amen!
You guys are hysterical. Next you have to try “Too Much Heaven”. Then “You Should Be Dancing”.
They’re brothers with 5 decades of hits.
Thanks!
YES!!
Exactly LT. How many groups do you know of today that you can say that they had 5 decades of hits and they just kept on goin? Yeah, get back to me when you come up with an answer to that one. The BeeGees were insanely cool AND talented. 🔥🔥🔥 None of that phony autotune for these guys. They were always the real deal. ♥♥♥♥💂♀💂♀💂♀😉😉😉
Exactly! I’ve loved their music since I first heard them in 1968.
Hysterical = shit 💩💩💩💩
Vocals on that are flawless!
You guys make this old lady smile!!! Y’all are so much fun!! You need to watch Lynyrd Skynyrd Freebird
The main guy with the fly hair is Barry Gibb and he is the second most successful song writer in history. 16 billboard #1s...The Bee Gees had 9 #1's, 15 top 10 hits and 43 in the top 100s. Legends
I love it. He said "if you hear this thing first thing in the morning, you about to clean up the house"😂😂😂 PS fellas: this part of the Bee Gee's we're not on drugs. They were just that good. ❤️ Love them all still today.
Definitely a good first thing in the morning song 😂❤ u definitely havin a good rest of ur day
Jive Talkin by the BeeGees is amazing. You Should Be Dancing, too. They have tons of hit songs, they ruled the 70s
Oh yeah; "Jeh-jeh-jeh-J I V E Talkin'..."...classic! Memories of summers at the pool. 🎶🎶
and the 60's - their music won the airwaves for decades - beautiful
The 70's had some incredible music in many different genres.
That's my favourite song of theirs
Love that tune
Love watching you young folks liking music from my time! Prolly your grandmas age! Ah, ah,ah, ah staying alive!
1977 swag! Barry can hold those notes so long!❤
These brothers were all genres over a 50 year period. They kept evolving with over a thousand songs and also wrote for other artists. Musical geniuses. It was the 70s.
This was the SUPER 70s BABY ,,, 8 0df the top 25 biggest selling LPS IN THE USA are from the 1970s .....A true fact
80s swagg my ASS ,,This was 1977
Hey gentlemen. The Bee Gees are legendary for their falsetto voice. The man you are speaking of is Barry Gibb. He is amazing!
This new generation have no idea what they have missed out on we had real music real people n original Style back in the day most importantly we had real family and friends,,, man I sure miss those days,,,
70s disco fellas!!!
Because I'm a bit you for them but my mum loved them I just did not realise how cool they were. This video shows exactly how cool they were!! Superb musicians
The 1970's: tracked instruments & no autotune. Pure talent.
This is around 1976-77 and they were THE MOST FAMOUS GROUP IN THE WORLD THEN. Only Barry is still living the other two brothers died within the past 12 years. Barry is 76 and is STILL married to the same woman for over 50 years and was faithful to her and they have 4 or 5 kids. They are English but raised in Australia. They started out singing when they were older children. They've had so many hits and they were BFF's with Michael Jackson. Y'all should see the movie Saturday Night Fever with John Travolta dancing if you haven't already came out in 1977. Your friend with the curly mullet is a style from the early to mid 80's. Many white men permed their hair in the 70's it's funny and some of them look ridiculous your friend ought to get a 70's fro!
Barry bought Johnny Cash's house and a worker threw a lit cigarette on the recently treated wood porch and burned it to the ground.
@@brendaclark8344 Wow, I didn't know how it burned!
@@brendaclark8344 I'm sorry just saw your reply now! THAT'S AWFUL! How Irresponsible! Was it in Nashville? I am from Knoxville, TN East of Nashville. We don't always get wind of everything like that goes on in middle TN. THAT IS SO STUPID! You don't throw a cigarette on a old wood porch! And it's rude to do that at someone's house whether it's Barry or anybody. Most smokers I've known in the past will wet their cigarette under a faucet and throw it in the trash and won't even smoke in your house. Responsible smokers are respectful of others. I assume he was fired and I wonder if charges were pressed?
@@paigecat9104 Not to mention their little brother Andy who was just as talented as they were. They wanted him to be in the group from the beginning but he was too young. He died at age 30. It was basically a severe heart problem that came from his years of drug abuse. Cocaine most of all weakened his heart. He had just celebrated his 30th birthday 5 days before his death and the worst part is that Barry, Robin and Maurice were *just about to finally add him to the group. They were about to make him the 4th Bee Gee at last but he died before he could get his chance to finally sing with his brothers just like he always wanted.* It's sad. And even more sad that Barry is the last one left having to live the rest of his life missing all of his brothers terribly. Yes he still has his sister Lesley (the oldest child in the family and the only girl who is never ever talked about at all) but it's still heartbreaking.
@@truthseeker9249 Oh I know! I remember when he died and was shocked! His poor mother how hard that was on her for going through losing her baby boy he was the youngest and was a Mama's boy which isn't a bad thing but precious. I remember he dated Victoria Principle and she broke up with him due to his drug use and the public really blamed her for dumpling him and she let them didn't reveal till later why. That's grace. He was so talented and handsome like Barry.
I grew up in the 70s and 80's ... hands down the best era in music ever. We ushered in MTV (back when it only played music) and had just great music. But the Bee Gees started performing in 1958 as a kids group, and as music changed they did as well. They last multiple decades until one of them (Maurice) died in 2003 from a twisted intestine. Robin died in 2012 from Cancer and Barry (the oldest) is still alive and performing at 76.
I played these tunes on the rd w/my 🎶🎹🎵 Band in the 70's...a really Happy FUN time in America
Bee Gee's are a deep rabbit hole!... They have SO many good songs!... You can't go wrong listening to the Brothers Gibb!
These guys were incredibly talented. Check out the sheer number of songs they have written - for themselves and for other artists. They are the sound of my youth.
These guys performed for more than 50 years before the first one died in 2003!! They were placed in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and were recently named as experts in the Australian Songwriters Association just a few weeks ago! Bee Gees stands for Brothers Gibb. They used to sing in their bedroom as kids when Barry (the one in the middle) was 6 and the twins were 3! Their mother thought her sons were listening to the radio but it was actually them singing! The twins are Robin (Red shirt) and Maurice (pronounced Morris). They are a true class act! This song is 1970s disco!! This group performed beginning in the 1950s and their last album was released in 2001! They’ve changed their style over the decades to keep up with the change in music over the years. Listen to a song from the 1960s from this group and then listen to a more recent song and you would NEVER know it was the same group. To Love Somebody is a good one from the 1960s and You Win Again is more recent. Sounds like a different group!! R. I. P. Robin and Maurice, we love and miss you!!🫶
Wow….shocked anyone never heard of The Bee Gees…legends
😲. Can’t believe y’all have never heard of The Bee Gees (aka Brothers Gibb…Barry, Robin & Maurice Gibb)! They were the Disco phenomenon in the 70’s! Sooo many great songs! Go down the rabbit hole, & listen to ALL The Bee Gees songs! You won’t regret it!
I'm a Paige too!
they grew up with rap it's not bad too
This is from the soundtrack album to Saturday Night Fever, which they wrote entirely. This was for a while, the biggest selling album in history. Sad that Barry is the only one left. BeeGees are LEGENDARY!
They did not write the whole Saturday Night Fever album. They wrote seven of the 16 songs. Two of the 7 were on previous Bee Gees albums. Three had been already written and recorded for an upcoming album they were working on. The Bee Gees weren't even asked for songs until the movie was in post production.
@@OhJodi69 to clarify, and i understand your direction, i meant the song in question, not the whole album. I see where my phrasing seemed like the other. Good looking out bud
**They didn't have no auto-tune...think about that!!!** True story! And musicians played instruments! Love to see the appreciation for the older music, always.
It's amazing how the Younger Generations have started listening to 60's, 70's, even 80's. When it wasn't that long ago that they Laughed about it all. All I can say is, Welcome to the Older people. Not so bad now, IS IT😊
Y’all need to review more Bee Gees. The skills are unmatched.
This is my generations music, and it's why I never wanted to leave (grow up). Everyone needs to listen to vocalists without auto tune. It really shows where true talent is.
Honestly this guy's voice is too amazing to even be real sometimes. These guys could do it on request live, no autotune no backing tracks. I wish I really got into these guys earlier in my life but I'm glad I eventually went down the rabbit hole
I literally laughed so hard!!! I had this “cassette” tape in my room and singin’ and dancing in like 7th grade!!!
Love the 70’s hair on the BeeGees!
The Bee Gees are amongst, if not the most legendary group ever.
Barry Gibb of the Bee Gees has written a ton of hits for other artists as well.
All 3 brothers wrote for other artists.
Actually, Robin wrote more hits than any of the brothers.
Amazing song writers
The BeeGees did so many banging disco hits. Try 'You Should Be Dancing' and Night Fever.
I don't know how anyone couldn't like the Bee Gees their songs are classic from this era! I think even John Lydon aka Johnny Rotten from the Sex Pistols likes the Bee Gees and Dave Grohl from the Foo Fighters. It's just good music.
Yes!! “You should be dancing” is my all time fav, that one will def make ya wanna get up and dance!!!
Before disco the had some hits like New York Mining Disaster, I've just Gotta Get a Message to you, very serious and dramatic!?
These guys launched out of Redcliffe, Queensland-Australia. Small seaside town in North Brisbane, Australia. One of my fav places in the world to live. No auto-tune..straight banger that will never get too old!
Have been to their tribute site. Fabulous!
British band though
@@floominggonzo283yes ppls trying to claim them 😂
The Bee Gees were one of the best groups from the 70's! They were like the kings of disco!!🎉
Yes, indeed. There was once a time when singers actually had to _be able to sing._ On their own. With no help. People went to concerts expected the band to sound the same as on the album. Imagine that. :D
Love the Bee Gees, pretty much all of their 70's era stuff is absolute gold. They were the Kings of Disco. Another band you'd like from then is Wild Cherry - check out "Play That Funky Music". Funk was huge, HUGE in the 70's.
Plus no beats, actual musicians
Heh I loved the way that was stated. But yeah, simpler times.
👍👍👍✌️
I LOVE Play That Funky Music!
These days you take any artist into a recording studio and tell them they can't use a computer to cheat and they just look at you funny like you crazy LOL
True story. If you ever have to do CPR, your pumps should match the beat of this song. There are others, including Star Wars' "Imperial March", but the irony of this song being "Stayin' Alive" and being the correct beat to keep someone alive make it the one to remember.
A few suggestions for future reactions (apologies if you've done them, I haven't checked your entire catalogue yet): Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Pentatonix, Alabama 3, Tori Amos, Heilung, Wardruna, the Chi-lites (Oh, Girl, and Have You Seen Her), and Marty Robbins (El Paso, Feleena, and El Paso City, in that order and/or Big Iron).
Love the reactions, guys, keep it up!
DZ
When you finally figure out music has beats per minute and tempo 🙄
@@jeffcivjeep7 i love music but im tone deaf. just like phineas and ferb i aint got rhythm so a familiar song helps
Yes, I was taught that too in CPR training! This song will live on in many ways we cannot imagine!! 🙂
When I took CPR the instructor told us that we should chest compress to the beat of this song or Another One Bites the Dust. We all laughed but he wasn't kidding. Both have the right tempo, lol.
And believe it or not, it was the one thing that calmed me down when I was giving my fiance CPR. Focused on the music and just kept going until the ambulance arrived.
Bee Gees are the best, for ever, i love this group
Their younger brother Andy was also a great singer and died young of drug overdose. Maurice had some kind of medical emergency & died which devastated Barry the lead singer. Robin because of a woman he married was ostracized by the family & died. The BeeGees were #1 hit making machines but they were SO popular & so everywhere that they became almost hated for several years before making a comeback. Their music is still exceptional today. Was fun to hear them again.
They have insanely ridiculous vocals 😱 and they’re the kings of harmonizing. Check out their songs: Too Much Heaven, How Deep is your Love, Night Fever, and Tragedy 🔥🔥🔥
It's funny watching the younger generations talking about "no autotune"....music was never meant to have autotune in the first place :D Back then, you had to have REAL talent to make it
How can you nit have heard of The Bee Gees the mind boggles . Great reaction lads love watching these reactions especially from young people to older songs n groups .
I love how when a jam hits, it hits! No matter generation, genre or style. These dudes reactions are always so funny 😂😂
The BeeGees one of Gods gifts to humanity!!
I can’t for the life of me understand people who purposely stick to one genre of music. I’m always so happy to see reactors like y’all explore music that is new to you. Real ones know that all music is inspired by each other across all genres. You don’t have to like it all but to refuse to listen is a sin fr.
Yes, as a lover of all genres of music, I agree. I raised my daughter and now my grandkids to love all types of music. My 18 y/o granddaughter tells me, people/friends, always ask her how do you know this song? -from 60s/70s/80s/90s...LOL
Agreed. Music is a language without words that everyone can understand. :D Why limit yourself to only one kind?
Totally agree!
My all time favourite BeeGees song is Spirits Having Flown. Just beautiful
The Bee Gees was so awesome in concert! Bee Gees mean Brothers Gibb. When they where at the peak of Saturday Night Fever… the brothers did another album and did a world tour. Here is where their younger brother Andy joined them. In the matter of fact , they where going to add Andy to the group. Andy died at a young age of 30. Their music will live on forever!! The falsetto started in the albums before this!
I'm 57 and I remember this first time around. It still sounds good all these years later. The Bee Gees were the bomb!
How can anyone not be familiar with the Bee Gees music? They had hit after hit out for years, were highly talented and legendary. One of the top musical groups of all time. Glad that you finally listened to one of their songs.
Some of these kids parents were likely not even born during the Bee Gees era
They never heard The Beatles either before doing a review of one of their songs so don’t feel bad. Smh. Kids nowadays need to take music history or something.
Hmm! Let’s see I guess there’s rap and hip hop and what else is there! At least that’s probably what they listen to until they have a channel and finally discover other music!
THEY didnt need Auto tone lol
@@bonnieinla how familiar were you, as a younger person, with the music of the early 30s? It is 45 years since Saturday Night Fever. Which is the same time as 1932 to 1977. Soooo......
Watching their reactions is priceless. I've laughed so much at their Righteous Brothers reviews that my sides hurt. Please keep posting these guys. Thanks So Much!
More Bee Gees reactions please.
Too Much Heaven.
Fanny Be Tender.
You Should Be Dancing.
Jive Talkin.
To Love Somebody.
Words.
You Win Again.
70 year old white lady again. I love watching you guys!! Bee Gees ruled the 70s!! They had nonstop hits!!
Keep reacting!! ❤️ it!!
This song is so amazing the fire department, cops, EMTs and all medical staff have been trained to give CPR to the rhythm of this song. It's the "stayin' alive" rhythm for someone whose heart has stopped.
They are brothers. The lead singer is the only one still living. They had a younger brother too named Andy. Great singers!!! ❤
Twenty years from now there will not be a single song written after 1996 played on popular media, but songs from the 60's,70's,80's,90's will dominate the media.
Classic, stunning talent -- vocals, instruments, arrangements -- all of it. Just one amazing group.
Barry Gibb (lead vocalist) is by far one of the best singers with such an amazing range. FANTASTIC - thanks for reviving one of my favorite songs of the 70s! Long Live Disco!
These guys are too funny for words. 68 year old woman here, just loving these guys.
The lyrics to this song are awesome 🎶
this song we use for chest compressions while doing cpr, this is the right tempo..
And great song of Course, love the BeeGees! 🎶🎤💜
this song, or "another one bites the dust" works too lol
I learned CPR that way!
No auto tune, exactly right. Just pure God given talent.
My 1st concert in 77 Whitney Houston's Mother's group opened up for them. She was the backup singers for Elvis Presley. I was eleven years old the best harmony of brothers in history they sounded just as good LIVE
Haha ! I actually clean house to this song a lot ! Gets me motivated cuz it’s upbeat ! Love y’all’s reaction to it 😂
When that guy said he had better hair then me i fell out laughing. Barry had better hair than anybody. Loved this reaction.
Stayin' Alive STILL gets me movin' and groovin' to this day! Take me to a dance party and play this one and watch me go!!!
Staying Alive is The Jam Baby !! And the Bee Gees were great !! Unfortunately 2 brothers are no longer with us. 😔
1977.… I’m 23 years old. O.C. Calif, out in the clubs 3-4 times per week. I was asked to dance by more Ladies to the Bee Gees Music than any other group. Easily over 100 times. One of the All Time Greatest Groups.
My favorite song by them is “How Deep is Your Love “ 🔥 😎
Great harmony, great hair...super cool dudes! Nothing duplicated or could imitate the Gibb Brothers
Barry gibb is the only brother still surviving. Absolutely tragic when you think of the music they where capable of. Chain reaction by Diana Ross, you can hear them in the background because they wrote it. Brilliant channel lads.
Love it, ❤Great Jams right! DUDES STILL SINGING!!
After I retired July 2020, I spent 2 years catching up on their songs. I viewed soooo many videos; talk shows; showing their families; their parents; feeling so sad when Maurice and Robin passed. Maurice was the one that was beginning to go bald. He embraced it. I saw a video where he said, "I'm Baldy Bee Gee." Then he smiled and laughed. He was my favorite. There's a video showing Barry at Robin's funeral. He kissed a rose, then placed in on Robin's casket. Michael Jackson was at the funeral. He stayed with Barry for a short time to get away from the troubles in his life. Sir Barry was 'knighted' by Prince Charles, who is now King Charles. Knighted means he received special recognition for his service to the music industry. His brothers received awards posthumously. There is another video where Barry is being interviewed, and tears started to come in his eyes.
The Bee Gees (The Brothers Gibb) Barry (singing lead), Robin and Maurice (cowriter with Barry). They had hits in the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and 00s. Try "Jive Talkin'", "Nights On Broadway", "You Should Be Dancing", "How Can You Mend A Broken Heart" for some other huge songs.
These guys are the epitome of the disco genre. Extremely talented songwriters and vocalists!! Timeless sounds!!
They have a ton of great songs!
