Marilyn McCoo enunciates and you can understand every word she's singing. Reminds me of Brandon Flowers of The Killers. So many singers, you can't understand the lyrics they're singing.
Oh my goodness, I love this video of Andy and Marilyn signing one of my favorite songs of Andy's. They have real chemistry together and sound amazing! Marilyn is classy, gorgeous, and has an incredible voice! Andy is gorgeous, too and sings with so much feeling and passion and I never tire of him...love, love, love him! Two fantastic artists!!!
Letting Marilyn McCoo the hosting job of hosting Solid Gold was just that solid gold. A very underrated singer,she can sing any music genre. Knows how to adjust her pitch to whatever she sings and whoever she is singing with. A true gift from God,our Lord and Savior. I miss Andy Gibb,a life gone too soon. ✝️🙏
I recall this "Solid Gold" broadcast, Andy Gibb and Marilyn McCoo singing Andy's classic '77 hit. What a classic song and better times those days were, no social media, and political divisiveness etc.
I love them both so much! Marilyn is a goddess with the voice of angel and Andy is such a likeable and charismatic singer and performer! And I can't even begin to describe how amazing the song is... Pure Barry Gibb magic!
This show will always be synonymous with Dionne Warwick, but Marilyn also had a magical energy about her on it. She sounds good singing anything, and she always looks beautiful. People commenting about missing Andy are right. He had talent. I like his songs and his singing style. I remember him on Solid Gold. But even on that show you could see that he was struggling. There were episodes when he was a bit off and sweating way too much, and one who knows the signs could tell that he was high. Marilyn had to use many guest hosts to cover for him because he was absent a lot. I remember he was only on the show for about one or two seasons before the producers got tired of him and fired him. He never really got to be a part of the huge success of the Bee Gee's with his brothers, which was something that he really wanted. He struggled with depression over that. He had a decent solo Top 40 career but it didn't last long because he was fired by the record label too. Then he had the misfortune of falling hard in love with women who didn't love him back the same way. Seems he tried to cover up his depression and insecurities with coke for many years, and when he decided to turn things around and try for a comeback it was just too late. That was too bad because his brothers were seriously trying to help him pull himself up and relaunch his career just before he died. He might have stopped using long before if the people close to him had shown him tough love and kept encouraging him instead of always blowing him off, putting him down, and firing him. He reminds me of a few of the patients I've worked with in addiction recovery. They're not bad people, just weak, lack motivation, low self-esteem, and need a LOT of patience and guidance. Making the break from substance addiction is not as easy as some people think.
Andy and Marilyn made such a great singing couple....Andy, so dog-gone handsome and sexy, and Marilyn so strikingly beautiful. This song holds such a special place in my heart, since it was Andy's first hit (and that's when I fell for him, hook line and sinker! ) Thanks for sharing this Andy treasure!
As Andy sings as stares into Marilyn's eyes, I look into his eyes and imagine he's really singing and looking into my eyes. I bet everyone that watches this does that!!! Andy's eyes are mesmerizing
Two icons singing such a beautifully written/produced song. I adore both of their voices. Such a sad loss to lose Andy so early on in his career! Thank god we still have marilyn!
Wow. He looks great there. My mother told me to look up clips from Solid Gold because she had such a BIGG crush on him when she was a teen.. I NOW see why! :P
What a great duet! Andy is so handsome and Marilyn is beautiful. Andy zones in and barely takes his eyes off her. He's so passionate! Love the harmonizing. Thanks for posting this treasure!
Oh my god ! How i use to see this Solid Gold Program, i still remember it, Saturdays afternoons, i was Thirteen Years Old. . . Love it, I dont Wanna cry tears please.....!
Gibb was a right good singer. Marilyn is one of the best, straight up, no gimmicks singers I have heard. Karen Carpenter was another. To me, gimmicks would mean extraneous runs and trills, over singing, fake accents, etc.
+Evelyn Japson I can't disagree with that. I do wish they had keyed the song a couple of steps higher so Gibb could use that falsetto and Marilyn could have shined, even more than she did.
@Elegant Oprah Notice I said, "extraneous". Nothing wrong with a few to add interest to a song, as the few in this song, that, I believe, were actually written. An example of what I am referring to would the the way "The Star Spangled Banner" is often sung, by pop singers, at sporting events, taking away from the song. Sometimes, less is more.
Andy at his best! Singing one of his great songs with a quality lady - Marilyn! always loved her - from fifth Dimension days! :) Thanks for sharing! Lisa
Back when music was great
Marilyn McCoo is by far one of the most beautiful women in the world.
She was one of the most underrated female singers ever. Love her music.
She was very popular and successful with the fifth dimension
Needed more material. Was a devout Baptist. Maybe it held back her career.
Not a great cover. Definitely not a fit for her voice. Plus she made it too bouncy.
@@you2449 Yes! accurate assessment ! She was the one who killed “Bill”. That was a fit!
She was wonderful plus tax
Oh boy do i miss Andy Gibb. He never knew how much we would miss him. Just imagine the music he would of come out with in his later years?
Marilyn was one of my favorites. Beautiful singer, beautiful woman.
Never missed a weekend episode of Marilyn's show. She is gorgeous and a great singer. As handsome as Andy Gibb is, she outshines him in this duet.
Love will turn the key❤
Late Andy Gibb, was a one terrific singer and Marilyn herself is one best singer of all time.
when you hear a Andy Gibb song you never want it to end, ever, dam it Andy, we miss you
AGREE!!!!!
amen!
Yes, we miss him sont much
How did he die again? I forgot.

Almost looks like he has a crush on her
Two very professional attractive vocalists that knew how entertain an audience. Seeing
them together was a terrific live performance.

Andy was the best R&B singer of his generation.
So classy... no female singer like her today !
Marilyn McCoo is soooo beautiful and a gorgeous singer. Andy is adorable and it is sad he died so young.

Great performance

I still can't believe he was taken too soon..absolutely love his music..fly high beautiful boy..xxx
Another great duet between two great musician singers of the 20th Century, MY century!
Can you imagine that beautiful man looking at you that way while singing this? I'd be in love forever ❤️
J Texas so would I, and I’m a straight guy lol.
I think it's the other way around. She's innocent, sweet, sexy and can she ever sing 🎤🎤🎤

Beautifully done.

This is beautiful
Excellent!!!!! His voice brings me to heaven!!
I LOVE ANDY AND SOILD GOLD

@Elegant Oprah Or everyone on American Idol type shows. When they comprise 70% of a song they are gimmicks.
Nostalgic!
I know, still to this day I remember where I was at when I heard he had died and it still hurts as much as that day, March 10, 1988
Awesomely gifted talent and a very sweet combination couple. ( hmmm I wonder if)....🤔
What a loss we have Stunning duet by two of the greats RIP Andy You were much loved
two of my all time favorites, I love Andy & Marilyn thanks for posting this,i love Andy on Solid Gold
