We all owe Burt Sugarman a debt of gratitude for having the foresight to preserve these treasures in the manner he did (converting the original master tapes to 1 inch then finally to digital). Much of what made that era so special has been lost to time, but through his careful stewardship we will have these incredible performances in perpetuity. Such a gift!! Thank you sir.
And some of the ' Top of The Pops' were saved, don't know who did that, but thanks to them as well. BBC had a habit of taping over old shows and we're lucky some were saved. Same with the Monty Python episodes.
Yes. I agree. The vocal, arrangment and orchestra melodies so perfect. Listen these song o only vocals and only instrumental in separeted. Pure perfection.❤
The harmony gives me the same goosebumps every time I hear it. This is so clear you can hear separate mics. Incredible Mo is singing low harmony when the chorus starts and switches to high as it concludes. Barry on lead, Barry and Robin together are spectacular.
@@donaldbeard6231 I was laughed too for liking the Bee Gees... The crap my generation listened too is done and gone, the Bee Gees remain ... who's laughing now
I agree, it's literally bonkers how many truly class songs these guys penned. They definitely sit at the Top Table of Musical Royalty along with just a handful of equally talented musicians.
I remember being a young teen, watching this late one night, and seeing Barry for the first time… “WHO is THIS?!?” OMG, it was the beginning of a 50 year love affair with The Bee Gees (and Barry).
Same here. That man was absolutely gorgeous. There will never be another group who can come anywhere close to pulling off those effortless tight harmonies.
It's amazing that the Bee Gees were on the show 5 times in 1973 when their career was pretty much in the doldrums at that time. The Midnight Special may have been responsible for keeping them going.
The music industry and record companies wanted another kind of music. Noisier, simpler chords, fewer orchestras (higher cost). But the great songwriters and singers knew how to reinvent themselves and the change took them to the top of the Galaxy.
I absolutely love and adore this song. One of my all time faves of theirs. The words are so beautiful. They are the BEST songwriters ever. The harmonies are other wordly. And my Barry as always reaching down into his soul singing with so much emotion and feeling. He gives me chills everytime I listen to it. He touches a place down in my heart and soul that ONLY he can touch. He truly is a "gift"❤️ The Brothers Gibb are..PERFECTION. THEY ARE TIMELESS.I have so much love for them.❤️❤️❤️ BEE GEES FOREVER💙💙💙🎶🎸
Lol 😂 my wife was a hard core country music fan Until we watched the midnight special and saw the BGS LOL 😅and she saw Barry Gib and she became a BGS fan right then lol 😂 I almost or should I say got a little jealous or should I be honest and say I got jealous and pissed or should I say I still love the BGS and don't know how she feels because she is married to someone else lol 😂 don't know about her but the BGS are still super stars ⭐ to me. 😊
Such a beautiful song. It can’t be stressed enough that their harmonies are spectacular and they are amazing live. Barry’s short-lived blonde phase. 😁 While I am absolutely a “Barry girl”, Robin’s voice soars and I love the contrast to Barry’s soulful natural voice.
I had listen to this song for many years in a CD player and never got to see them performing it live. I'm blown away by Maurice Gibb's vocals mixing high and low voices in just one chorus. A chorus that always gave me chills on the radio, gives me chills now seeing them live.
These clips are great and the picture and sound are terrific... my wish is to have entire intact shows instead of broken up into clips ... The Bee Gees are so great, this was at a time just before the change to their 70's dominance
Barry’s so gorgeous! Gorgeous, sparkly eyes, perfect profile, chiseled cheekbones, perfect nose, strong chin, perfect mouth, sunkissed skin, a glorious head of hair. He always has to do a couple hair flips, too. Tall, built, fills out his sexy outfit nicely. And he has a sweet, clear, powerful instrument in that throat. I also really like Maurice’s jewel-colored outfit.
So great and beautiful. Here, such a clean sound with a wonderful singin', where also Maurice shines. His ability in singin' both lower and higher harmony-parts is significant.
Holy Moly, this youtube channel! All the Bee Gees clips. You're doing a great public service. I love the Brothers but I wasn't born yet when "The Midnight Special" was on TV.
Oldies lovers, get “the midnight specials” dvd set. It has all the songs we love live. So many artists performed on midnight special. If I’m trying to think of a group, I picture their name in those red lights and then I remember.
Not sure if they created the genre called disco. Moving to Miami changed their style that I think improved what is called 'disco'. Disco was basically crap dance music, however some artists started to write some very good songs that fitted in the disco genre.
Love this song and performance. Awesome to clearly hear all three voices. Just finished watching your Bee Gees playlist. Absolutely fantastic. So many amazing performances! One of my favorites was with Wilson Pickett and they sang Hey Jude. So much energy and soul, and they all looked like they were having so much fun! Thanks for sharing these great clips!
Artistas de ese nivel nunca volverán a verse y menos si seguimos poniendo en alto a los exponentes actuales; sin talento y vulgares. Bee Gees, formidables

Well said , I agree
Спасибо большое, СЭР! Мы Вам очень благодарны!
Thank you Burt. I am loving these Midnight Special memories!
Indeed we do!
One of the most beautiful songs ever written in my humble opinion
Uma das ....
Yes. I agree. The vocal, arrangment and orchestra melodies so perfect. Listen these song o only vocals and only instrumental in separeted. Pure perfection.❤
I second that.
The BeeGees wrote their songs.
Perfection
So complicated to pull off live, and here the Bee Gees make it look simple
It’s natural for them
Snce they were kids.
Natural talent from a very young age, to them it was simple.
Mo was so much better than I ever knew till just the last few years.
Agree….lovely and talented man~
The harmony gives me the same goosebumps every time I hear it. This is so clear you can hear separate mics. Incredible Mo is singing low harmony when the chorus starts and switches to high as it concludes. Barry on lead, Barry and Robin together are spectacular.
Glad you are enjoying it. Burt Sugarman insisted on the best sound mixers that were around back then ... it obviously paid off!
@@themidnightspecialtvshow I’m so happy The Midnight Special is getting some of the attention and appreciation it deserves.
Its hard to believe but people used to laugh at me for liking the BGS LOL 😂 who cares I actually LOVE THEM 😊
Just Wonderful
@@donaldbeard6231 I was laughed too for liking the Bee Gees... The crap my generation listened too is done and gone, the Bee Gees remain ... who's laughing now
Robin's voice blends so well with Barry's xxx
Barry Gibb pours his heart and soul into his full-throated singing. This is an amazing live performance.
De verdade. Canta com a alma e com o coração
Guves me the chills!
I just love how Barry sings the beginning and Robin comes in for the chorus. Then I could hear Mo. The BGs are awesome.
Write great songs, harmonize like few others, and are great to look at. They had it all.
It's great to be reminded of the ridiculous talent of the Bee Gees.
I agree, it's literally bonkers how many truly class songs these guys penned. They definitely sit at the Top Table of Musical Royalty along with just a handful of equally talented musicians.
Robin ' s voice !!!
Linda
Beautiful ROBIN, beautiful voice.
Forever a BeeGees fan. Their voices are so pure. I love them all. Thanks to The Midnight Special for these incredible videos.
Can we talk about Barry's hair and my obsession with it? And yeah, they're singing live in this one proving their chops!
The hair is perfection. I want to run my fingers through it.
@@reginabohn5213Me too....I wish!🥰
Me three.
@@BGWhispererme 4❤
I feel.your heartbeat, When you run your fingers through my hair, Oh yeah...from their song ONE.❤

Yep! Who is this absolutely gorgeous man?!😍
Me too! Absolutely Gorgeous.
Barry is Mother Nature's Masterpiece!! 💜
Нам в СССР такое не показывали по телевизору. Я была ещё маленькой и Барри был бы точно моей первой любовью❤. Всю жизнь люблю bee gees❤
My gosh, those harmonies. Ethereal. Otherworldly. ❤
Lord, Barry, that hair is on point
Came here to say this! LAWDY that hair is magnificent!!!
My first crush in the 70s!!
The dry look by Gillette.
@@shedoosmine too!😘😘😘🥰🥰🥰
ALWAYS!
I'm so thrilled to hear this one. You can clearly hear Mo harmonizing with Robin.
It's amazing that the Bee Gees were on the show 5 times in 1973 when their career was pretty much in the doldrums at that time. The Midnight Special may have been responsible for keeping them going.
Yes a relative doldrums but they kept charting straight through from their original era to the disco years. Also wrote many hit songs for others.
@@edwardruff7927Spot on!
The music industry and record companies wanted another kind of music. Noisier, simpler chords, fewer orchestras (higher cost). But the great songwriters and singers knew how to reinvent themselves and the change took them to the top of the Galaxy.
Thank God they were there!
I really like being able to hear Maurice’s low harmony in a few places. What a treat!
That hair-4 years ahead of it's time.
no this was 1973 .my hair was the same then.
Beautiful. I love them and miss them so much. 💜💜💜
They were born to sing as one. Chills. The Bee Gees, The Brothers Gibb, THE VERY BEST.🖖💜🖖
Barry and Robin Gibb had the most gorgeous hair. 💜
Barry always did, but Robin started wearing hairpieces by the 80s.
Andy had gorgeous hair too!
Sadly Maurice started balding at age 12
I love The Bee Gees and Barry is the last bee gee left ! I miss his brothers !
They will always be the best of the best.... Beautiful...
Kudos to the Midnight Special for putting on amazing talent and showcasing their music 🎶 🎵. Ty for all the good times and memories.
They had everybody on !!!❤
@@marciapasthing6799 That's why it was an amazing show
Bee Gees were just simply That Good ! Miss those guys ......
Beautiful song. And the hair...
Amazing vocal, harmonies and melody.
Wonderful arrangement and beautiful orchestra. This is a pure Bee Gees Song.
Barry's falsetto is tops!
Those three brothers are magic!
Thank you for sharing! 💖
Nessa época eles ainda não faziam falsete, vozes naturais e deslumbrantes, a voz do Robin é maravilhosa
@@giselemarcianolourenco6646-Barry is blowing everyone away 🤷♀️
Strong voice, leads those harmonies. Robin and Mo hold their own too!
Just beautiful. This is one of my favorite songs and you can hear each of their voices so clearly
Those sweet voices and harmony are so incredible! Barry is so adorable ❤

😂
Those harmonies sent shivers up & down my spine every time. I love The Bee Gees!!
Alll their songs literally , saved my life.

Barry has that effect. 😁
I suppose it's possible that there have been men who have been more handsome than Barry Gibb, but you couldn't prove it by me.
@@pamshort4590It’s not possible. Barry’s the most handsome man who’s ever existed.
@@BGWhisperer Yes, you are right. I'm sorry that I suggested otherwise.
He looks especially good in this video.
Love these guys! Robin's voice especially was so beautiful!
I like Barry’s best.
Such a beautiful song. It can’t be stressed enough that their harmonies are spectacular and they are amazing live.
Barry’s short-lived blonde phase. 😁
While I am absolutely a “Barry girl”, Robin’s voice soars and I love the contrast to Barry’s soulful natural voice.
Love those highlights!
These guys were 1 in a billion
Que maravilla, BeeGees espectaculares, cantautores de décadas demostraron que eran los mejores!!! Los hermanos Gibb por siempre!!!

You could hear Maurice's low harmonies here so clearly. Lovely.
@@lizz5235and lovely high harmony at the end. 💖
Breathtaking.❤️
Love all of their smiles love the song ❤
Amzing! MORE , MORE, MORE BEE GEES
gorgeous love that song xxxx♥♥♥♥♥
These clips are great and the picture and sound are terrific... my wish is to have entire intact shows instead of broken up into clips ... The Bee Gees are so great, this was at a time just before the change to their 70's dominance
Hopefully we will be posting full episodes soon.
Love the Bee Gees video's! Awesome! ❤
Glad you like them!

amazingly beautiful song, great harmonies just like our boys are made, Chapeau

Glad you found us and can still appreciate the music so many years later. Enjoy!
@@themidnightspecialtvshow this is true art and distinguishes our boys because they were very variable and never boring
This song showcases Barry’s voice so powerfully-love, love, love it!
What a head of hair he had!
Still has nice hair!
Vorrei cercarti e correre da te mio adorato Robin ,fa tanto male sapere che non ci sei più. RIPOSA IN PACE, SEMPRE NEL MIO CUORE 😔❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏
Oldies lovers, get “the midnight specials” dvd set. It has all the songs we love live. So many artists performed on midnight special. If I’m trying to think of a group, I picture their name in those red lights and then I remember.
What makes this even more incredible is the fact that there weren't on stage monitors back then.
❤❤❤ Love all three brothers..
Barry’s hair! 🤤😋 loved since 1974.
Barry and Robin harmonize fantastically..I find Maurices voice isn't as powerful but still essential to the group
I just love Robin's voice and the way they just all blend/harmonize.
His voice was just so pure. Ethereal.
Oh my god . . . I stand amazed in the presence . . .
Bee Gees before Disco, even though they never intended to create a genre that changed the world.
Not sure if they created the genre called disco.
Moving to Miami changed their style that I think improved what is called 'disco'.
Disco was basically crap dance music, however some artists started to write some very good songs that fitted in the disco genre.
Such a lovely song.
Bee gees my go to music to remember, relax and feel blessed 🙏. Lot of love on my path to where I am now, I treasure all those times xx
Love❤the❤bee❤gees❤❤❤
Bom dia. Essa transcende décadas e continua maravilhosa. ❤
RIP …Robin we missed you.May GOD keep you in his arms.❤❤❤👉Surasak Bangkok Thailand ❤❤
I’m jealous on who had the opportunity to watch them live…
Robin ase su parte espectacular....!!!!grande ver gees!!!!
Bella voz la de Barry. Además que hermoso hombre fue

Que voces mas angelicales, no hay ni habrán voces como la de los hermanos Gibb. Barry te amo y te amaré por siempre.
💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞
Love the song and love Barry's blond hair. ❤❤❤❤
Their last hit before their music became disco which they may have invented.
Beautiful hair
They were a special group
This was on my 23rd Birthday, wish I could have been there.
