      Mo was a great singer in his own right. He could do falsetto almost as good as Barry, but he just felt that Barry and Robin were better singers than him and he never pushed himself forward.

    What I liked about Robin's voice he could change his voice to sound different. Different pitches I think he probably had,,3 or 4 different sounds. You have to keep playing their music to know what I'm taking about. Actually all 3 could change their sound. But I love when Robin's voice sounded fragile 😅

    The contrasting voices really make this song whether alternating or sung together. Barry's is sad and soft sound about a lost love. Robin's is a powerful cry of anguish for someone lost to him forever..."a hole in my soul". You should listen to "I started a joke" live in Melbourne 1989 if you haven't done so. Robin was called by many critics and peers the best blue eyed soul voice of his generation. His vibrato was in inimitable and effortless. Another great Robin lead when still in his teens is "Black Diamond".

The official clip and also the version that sing outside in New York. Brilliant. Another beautiful later song of theirs is I Could Not Love You More. There's a lovely official video but an even better one where it's just the 3 of them. Never go wrong with the lads.😢

    Thanks for this reaction, I definitely agreed with your comments. This live performance of the song 'For Whom the Bell Tolls' was epic. Robin really owned it. I have seen the music videos and had an equal appreciation of Barry's soft soothing voice then the contrast with Robin's more emotional soulful voice. I couldn't say which appealed to me more. Here Robin's voice seemed super charged with emotions .. magnificent 👏
    Another hidden gem...It Doesn't Matter Much To Me'. There is a back and forth between Barry and Robin's vocals in that song.

It punches straight through to my soul every time unlike any other vocalist I can think of.

  • @mariekeung7187

    President Pat, your reaction was spot on! The look on your face when Robin came in with the chorus said it all. What you said about the emotion Robin evokes when he sings is well known among the masses. He sounds like he is crying with heartbreak when he sings. He has always said that he sings from the heart. And he does a great job doing so with his incredible vibrato. I have yet to hear anyone, past and present, that has a vibrato like Robin's. So glad that it is now your favorite Bee Gees song, as it is mine, too, along with Massachusetts. Listen to Massachusetts, if you haven't already. You can really hear his vibrato on that song, too.

    As you are probably aware, the Bee Gees started their singing and song writing career in 1958 when they were young children. Their father had a band and was a drummer. Their mother was a dance hall singer. The boys ended up supporting their family with their music. I'm posting a link here for a performance they did in 1960 (the video title says it's from 1963, but I really think it's from 1960). I think this video gives good insight into how natural their talent was and how far they grew over the years. Hope you enjoy the video,.
