If you’re diggin your new exposure to The Bee Gees stream the movie Sgt Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band which feature the bee gees along with Peter Frampton. It’s kind of hilariously silly but I love listening to it in the background. Aerosmith and Earth Wind and Fire also make an appearance.

They were a boy band when they started! They formed a band and were singing before they were teenagers! I think Robin and Maurice were about 8 years old.
I am 70 and we had the best music, most uplifting, and this band was the best.....their Too much Heaven was my all time favorite, REAL music!!! But this a very close second!
Andy Gibb was not part of The Bee Gees, he was the younger brother and a solo artist. (Sir) Barry Gibb is the lead singer of The Bee Gees, with Maurice and Robin, and is still very much alive.
@egrosenesq Firstly,, I am very well aware of Andy & never said he was,, I was just paying my respects to the brothers who have passed,, Andy,, Maurice & Robin,, Who are all very much NOT alive.
It’s a sacrilege to call these talented brothers a “boy band”. That’s a term for these new age choreography boys who feel the need to dance to their music. The Bee Gees could stand in front of a mic and magic would happen. Just pure talent. Not manufactured like today.
Saw them in Anchorage Alaska in 1976 when they were passing through. We only had the West High School Auditorium and I was just 20 seats away. They were TALLER than I realized. I was about 23 years old... 72 now
No they definitely are NOT a one hit wonder! Their career spans 62 years!! 1958-2021! Plus they have written/sang/produced of 1000+ songs not only for themselves but other artists. They also have a younger brother who had his own solo career that they helped with. His name is Andy Gibb. What would’ve been his 65th birthday is coming up on Sunday March 5. He passed away 5 days after he turned 30. Please check out his song Shadow Dancing!
@@TheCinder24 Gosh, I was so in love with Andy! Maurice and Robin may have been twins, but Andy was the spitting image of Barry. My 10yr old heart still throbs.
They weren’t a boy band, they were men, real men and brothers too. That’s why their voices blend so beautifully. I wore out all their albums. Yes, albums, real records that wore out. Barry the on with all the hair is the only one still alive. I had such a crush on him. Remember making videos were a new thing back then. They did what they could!
In my opinion, the Bee Gees are the best band in history. Their writing, the vocal ranges, their harmonies....... the hair! They had it all. And the way they came up with ideas for their songs was so inspire: Jive Talking came about becuase they were passing over a road with ridges on it and the sound the tyres made gave them the intro for the song. It takes a certain talent to hear a song in such everyday things. They're musical geniuses.
The Beegees had something that can never be matched because it is all 100% REAL voice, no auto tune, no manipulation like everything now is packed with. Your authentic reaction was a great compliment to the song
This is for the,Bee Gee's reaction. They were brothers, Barry, Maurice,Robin. Parenteral twins. Sang their tail off. If you enjoy music how do you not know them?
Bee Gees only have masterpieces. With a catalogue of 1000+ songs written for themselves and other top artists there’s a lot to choose from. You won’t be able to find anyone else who can harmonize like The Bee Gees. That was a great reaction, thank you. ❤❤❤❤
They're brothers. The shorter ones are twins and the one with the high picth voice is the oldest, he's also the only one still alive and producing music for other artists.
What's really sad is everyone seems to have forgotten younger brother Andy Gibb. He was a solo artist who had several number one hits. Unfortunately he died very young.
"Saturday Night Fever" soundtrack is still in the top 10 selling albums in history. And yet remarkably, that album and the songs on it do not even define the Bee Gees. It is not possible to measure their talent as their body of work spans 50 years +
The Bee Gees have been around since the mid-60’s. Check out, “Words,” “Massachusetts,” “I Started A Joke,” and all the music the write for the film “Saturday Night Fever.” Only Barry (lead singer) is still alive.
Hits for 5 decades. No. Not a one hit wonder. 100 top 10 hits through the years. 6 consecutive number ones. Great reaction. Love anything from these guys. Close to a billion views on YT, just on one song, and just in the past 12 years. Not bad for a group with their first hits in the 60s
@@inacornerHe was making that comment because he had just reacted to Too Much Heaven that he heard for the first time, and had never heard of the group. It was just a positive observation comment.
Barry Gibb just his song writing ability alone puts him up at the top as far as lyricists go but than add in that leading vocal voice with the falcetto & ability to harmonize so well with his brothers. AMAZING band
Can't believe this person has never watched a movie with the bee gees music. They were a boy band when they were boys. Respect the talent they like Elvis and Micheal jacksonceas one of a kind.
Oh you sweet boy. Bee Gees rocked my world in the 70's. I still have their album. Yes, floating on the notes. Still in love with Barry Gibbs hair. ❤❤❤ They didn't have to try to be all that, they were.
THEIR VOICES HARMONIZE SO WELL TOGETHER BECAUSE THEY ARE BROTHERS!!!! THEY HAD SO MANY MANY HITS, SOME ARE: STAYIN' ALIVE, YOU SHOULD BE DANCIN', MORE THAN A WOMAN, RUN TO ME, JIVE TALKIN', TO LOVE SOMEBODY, AND SO MANY MANY MORE...ENJOY THIS RIDE!!!!!!
They wrote music for “ Staying Alive” with John Travolta ,yes Disco. They were in Yellow Submarine by The Beatles. And they had a younger brother Andy Gibb .
The Bee Gees were the disco Era. When the war on disco was declared and they were burning the disco records the Bee Gees music got caught up in that. They stopped playing for awhile and Berry the lead singer started writing songs for other artists. You'd be surprised at the songs and people he wrote and wrote for. They reimerged as a band again in the late 80's. Berry wrote sound tracts for movies and he wrote Grease and many songs for Olivia Newton John. He also wrote many Country songs.
They lived in Redcliffe QLD Australia for a long time too. They were boarding the ship Fairsky in January 1967 to go to England to make their fame and fortune. I was disembarking the ship with my parents to start our new life in Australia at the same time they were boarding!
Barry Gibb, the one with the beard and fabulous hair who sings lead, defined the music industry in the 70's and 80's. He produced and wrote songs for everybody, and the Soundtrack they did for Saturday Night Fever is iconic. They were the disco wave, but they started in the 60s and though Maurice & Robin have passed (as well as younger brother and solo artist Andy Gibb) I believe Barry is still making music.
You cracked me up when you said they are not just a one hit wonder! These guys have a catalogue of songs stretching back to the 1960's! And they wrote their own songs. One of my favorite Bee Gees songs is from about 1970....Lonely Days. Check it out.
1980's when Love, Emotion, poetry and dance died. The Bee Gees is How Real Men talked to Real Women in 'courtship'..(panties flew 😊). #1 Highest Selling Album in History...that nobody 'admits' to. 💋
It hurts that they died in almost reverse order. Barry was the oldest brother, and Andy, their youngest brother, was the first to die - so very young. And then Robin and Maurice. Imagine being Barry, outliving all your younger siblings. That's brutal.
Originally known as the brothers Gibb. There was four Brothers Barry, the oldest, and the falsetto of the group. Fraternal twins Robin and Maurice (not identical) and then the youngest brother, Andy. So we had Barry, Maurice and Robin, who were the Bee Gees B/Gs and then Andy Gibb who was a solo artist. They started in Mid sixties and achieved success in the 70s and 80s. Then in the late 70s early 80s younger brother Andy got involved became a solo artist and had a song called "I just want to be your everything" which reached #1 on the pop charts in Canada and on the Pop tarts in the US. He was also nominated for four Grammy awards in 78 Best New artist being one of them. In the mid 80s he began dating actress Victoria Principal who was very popular at the time. Then in 1988 he died from myocarditis and inflammation of the heart it was real hard on the brothers. The Bee Gees as a band had gone on to create 23 studio albums starting in 1965 through 2002 of which they had 9 - #1 on the chart hits of their own.
In the courtyard between tower 1 & 2 of the World Trade Center, this song was playing when many of the jumpers hit the pavement. Bittersweet to think that they heard 2 or 3 seconds of this heavenly harmonizing, and it was the last thing they ever heard.
🌟🌟🌟 Yes, Three Of The Brothers Are Still Walking Up In Heaven 😇😇😇 Andy Gibb Was The Youngest Brother Who Sang Solo....Barry Gibb Is The Only Living Brother. I Miss Them So Much! ❣️ May They Continue To Sleep In Peace And Forever Live In Heavenly Paradise. ❤❤❤ 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
This was my band. You should see Blue Weaver talk about being present while they wrote this song. It brings him to tears how it was just pulled from the ether.
I Am a granny, but I’m also a woman...and they can Still sing off my unmentionables!! Listen to 100 of their most famous songs, then you’ll know why!!❤❤❤
Yeah, I never heard the term "boy band" until the 80s with New Kids on the Block, Backstreet Boys, Menudo and 'N Sync. It was reserved for "manufactured" groups that were assembled with singers that would appeal to teenage girls and didn't write any of their own music. In the 60s and 70s there were bands with young males but they were generally family groups like The Bee Gees and The Jackson 5 that lasted into their adulthood and had artistry that developed over the decades.
you say that they wrote "a lot of their own material"?...............emmm ... very amusing. The actual facts are... They wrote 1,000's of songs and wrote ALL of their own hits and tracks. lol
The Bee Gees were all born in England and then moved to Australia with their parents when they were older. I grew up listening to these guys as well as Mowtown and it never occurred to me that they sounded like Smokey Robinson but you are so right. You need to listen to “Only Words” and The lights went down in Massechusetts as well. They had a younger brother Andy as well who also joined but sadly died of a drug overdose and Maurice used to be married to Lulu another UK singer from Glasgow. The music in that era just seems to outshine a lot of today’s stuff, or maybe I am just getting old 😂 PS Jive Talking as well - one of my faves,
I am a 75 year old music lover-listener. Spent a life turning people on to different music. I love watching people react to new things. I lost that part of me, but watching you react brought my joy back. You feel it. You immediately get it. I will keep watching you baby!
If you weren't fortunate enough to be a teen age boy with a teen age girl in a candlelit basement swaying to this song on the radio the first time around, you might have had a great life, but you didn't have the greatest life.
Bee Gees stands for Brothers Gibb. Being brothers greatly contributed to their voices to harmonize. Born on the Isle of Man. Only Barry survives but their music will live on for quite some time.
I did have a little chuckle when you said that they're not a one-hit wonder ;) Not only were they great performers and wrote their own songs, they wrote tons of songs for others.
Not to forget what prolific songwriters they were. They wrote many hits for other artists. Dionne Warwick, Diana Ross, Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton, Barbara Streisand, The song Grease for the movie, and many many more. These two songs you have listened to were for the movie Saturday Night Fever. Their earlier music in the 60s is well worth a listen too. Less falsetto, but their amazing harmonies are always there. Tragically the fraternal twins Maurice and Robin either side of Barry the main singer have passed both were quite young... and their other much younger brother Andy who sang solo also tragically died at a very young age. I think there is a fairly recent documentary about Barry, 'the last brother standing' or something like that. They are true treasures.
And they were brothers 💙💙💙 My very straight Mum got taken to Saturday Night Fever , us kids thought she’d be 😱😱😱 cos back in the day we thought shed be shocked by John Travolta ‘s sexiness here in Wales 🏴 😅 She came home with the full song album 33 of Saturday Night Fever and probably played it twice a day minimum for years ❤❤❤ I know every word ☺️ Bee Gees were amazing , now legendary , deservedly so xxx
I had the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack on vinyl and also on 8 track. Played it nonstop in my little red Nova. Great memories for this 70 year old granny.

Hello … Saturday Night Fever!
No one sings better harmony than siblings. What an amazing range Barry had. Also, that high stuff as you probably know is falsetto.
Another legendary artists from Manchester UK so many from Manchester alone
Barry Gibb is one of the more talented and prolific songwriters, he wrote songs for other artists as well...
Amazing but this guy does not get it.
Arguably the greatest love song ever recorded….
This wasn’t a boy band, it was a MAN band 😊 AND they wrote their music!!!!

Sadly, only one of the three still lives. They were the "it" group during the disco days of my youth. Very nostalgic

In the 60s and 70s there were bands with young males but they were generally family groups like The Bee Gees and The Jackson 5 that lasted into their adulthood and had artistry that developed over the decades.
@@Scary__fun heard them describe themselves as a tongue-in-cheek boy band, then corrected that to man band 🤣😂🤣
They wrote hundreds of songs for others as well
you say that they wrote "a lot of their own material"?...............emmm ... very amusing. The actual facts are... They wrote 1,000's of songs and wrote ALL of their own hits and tracks. lol
@@Scary__fun the Bee Gees and the Osmonds were the best!
And they were both the original boy bands!
The Bee Gees were all born in England and then moved to Australia with their parents when they were older. I grew up listening to these guys as well as Mowtown and it never occurred to me that they sounded like Smokey Robinson but you are so right. You need to listen to “Only Words” and The lights went down in Massechusetts as well. They had a younger brother Andy as well who also joined but sadly died of a drug overdose and Maurice used to be married to Lulu another UK singer from Glasgow. The music in that era just seems to outshine a lot of today’s stuff, or maybe I am just getting old 😂 PS Jive Talking as well - one of my faves,
Rest in Peace Robin and Maurice Gibb.
I am a 75 year old music lover-listener. Spent a life turning people on to different music. I love watching people react to new things. I lost that part of me, but watching you react brought my joy back. You feel it. You immediately get it. I will keep watching you baby!
If you weren't fortunate enough to be a teen age boy with a teen age girl in a candlelit basement swaying to this song on the radio the first time around, you might have had a great life, but you didn't have the greatest life.
Bee Gees stands for Brothers Gibb. Being brothers greatly contributed to their voices to harmonize. Born on the Isle of Man. Only Barry survives but their music will live on for quite some time.
They are a 1,000 hit wonder...over 100 in the top 10, and wrote songs for many of the top voices of 3 decades.
Here here 🥂
I did have a little chuckle when you said that they're not a one-hit wonder ;) Not only were they great performers and wrote their own songs, they wrote tons of songs for others.
They make it look easy just like any true professional in any profession does pure talent
They're called THE BEE GEES, They're real Last name is GIBB... THEY WERE THE GIBB BROTHERS...
Not to forget what prolific songwriters they were. They wrote many hits for other artists. Dionne Warwick, Diana Ross, Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton, Barbara Streisand, The song Grease for the movie, and many many more. These two songs you have listened to were for the movie Saturday Night Fever. Their earlier music in the 60s is well worth a listen too. Less falsetto, but their amazing harmonies are always there. Tragically the fraternal twins Maurice and Robin either side of Barry the main singer have passed both were quite young... and their other much younger brother Andy who sang solo also tragically died at a very young age. I think there is a fairly recent documentary about Barry, 'the last brother standing' or something like that. They are true treasures.
That's what real talent looks like.
BeeGees and "one hit wonder" 😅 these guys are geniuses. Great reaction
They spanned at least 3 decades. Brilliant man band. No boys there. Lol
On Sept .1970 Barry Gibbs and Linda were married .
At this same time, Barry turned 24 years old.
This was definitely THEIR song..

OMG!
On Oct.1st my hubby and I will be married 47 years. This, too , was our song.
What a memory.. thank you!!
And they were brothers 💙💙💙 My very straight Mum got taken to Saturday Night Fever , us kids thought she’d be 😱😱😱 cos back in the day we thought shed be shocked by John Travolta ‘s sexiness here in Wales 🏴 😅
She came home with the full song album 33 of Saturday Night Fever and probably played it twice a day minimum for years ❤❤❤ I know every word ☺️ Bee Gees were amazing , now legendary , deservedly so xxx
I'm a Metalhead born in 1970, but I know all the words to this song and MANY more!
I had the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack on vinyl and also on 8 track. Played it nonstop in my little red Nova. Great memories for this 70 year old granny.
I've listened to this song regularly since my beloved husband passed... and I'll never stop.
🥰
