Y’all say my guy Barry wrote this and recorded it!! I gotta hear it now I just got home and read these and I’m SHOOK!!!
Love this version but The Bee Gees - fabulous.
Yes, Al changed this Gibbs song a bit from the original version. But you have to dig deeper with Al Green: “Let’s Stay Together,” “Love and Happiness,” “I’m Still in Love with You,” “You Ought to Be With Me,” “I’m So Tired of Being Alone,” etc. Thanks ✨🤪
And suggesting more great soulful vocals: TEDDY PENDERGRASS (solo or with Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes) - “WAKE UP EVERYBODY.” - a classic vocally with important lyrics! Thanks ✨🤪
I thought you reacted to this Bee Gees song already. I guess I'm wrong. Can't wait for you to react to it!!!!!
These arms of mine is another epic song. You should definitely check it out.

Quick trivia on this song. The song was written by Barry and Robin Gibb, and it was their song in 1971 first. That’s why I said the other day you hadn’t heard their old stuff yet. And they’ve got stuff much older.
I've requested this song several times by the Bee Gees.
Bee Gees sing it better. Lol!
@@brendadye2145 I agree! Their harmonies are terrific on it.
Bee Gees .....listen to their version
I like Al Green other songs better but I’ve never been crazy about his version of this Bee Gees classic theirs is so much better! Whenever people make requests they should give a little background on it. You both will love the original I sent it to you
The best rendition of this song. Period. Full stop!
Aĺ Green BLOWS them ALL Away. Sooo much Soul and Emotion. You really FEEL It...
THIS is the first song the Bee Gee's wrote when they got back together after their 15 month breakup in 69 to show how much they had broken each other's hearts with bad feelings and immature behavior. It was a way to mend their relationships❤

Didn't know this.
This is what, (at its best) the internet was created for. Informational transfer.
Thank you!
Didnt know this
You'll love Al Green's "Let's Stay Together" and "Tired Of Being Alone".!!! Great Soul/R&B. Gotta love '70s music
Here's the link to the Bee Gees original version. th-cam.com/video/ZInWGC5L2T8/w-d-xo.html
And "Still in Love with You": th-cam.com/video/M8AtyaxgtOU/w-d-xo.html
Love and Happiness is phenomenal!!!!!! Al Green is absolutely amazing!✌❤
That entire album - 'Let's Stay Together' is one of the finest romantic soul recordings ever made!
What about "Belle"?
Oh my god, that is vocal gymnastics, Al Green just about the most soulful man this human race has ever produced.
This song came on the radio as I was driving to the airport after leaving my sister’s death bed, and it BROKE ME. Still does. I’ve always loved the original Bee Gees version, but Al Green’s is the one that tears me apart. I listen when I need a good soul-cleansing cry. Thanks for covering it. Bless you both and your beautiful family. 💞 You bring me a lot of joy, and these days, that’s... everything!
'Let's Stay Together', 'Tired Of Being Alone', 'For The Good Times', 'I'm Still In Love',...all great Al Green Songs. Looking forward to more Rob Squad Al Green reactions.
For the Good Times. Yes!
Yessss
Love And Happiness!!
I LOVE AL GREEN. Was at the DAVID LETTERMAN SHOW where he performed the night before being inducted into the Rock n Roll hall of fame. He’s a beautiful soul and a deeply religious person AL GREEN #LEGEND #ICON
Al Green sings this song also.
The Reverend just preaches smooth and his voice does melt like chocolate a perfect analogy 😁💚
And he IS a reverend preacher, too
Al Green is the epitome of a soul singer. This song is a cover of a Bee Gees song. Al did his version not too long after this became a hit for the Bee Gees.
You can never go wrong with Al Green.....Al Green is SOUL MUSIC!
“ So Tired of Being Alone” masterful searing soul song.
For your second Al Green song, it has to be "Let's Stay Together". It's an R&B classic.
My fav Al Green song…
Thank you for reacting to this live performance. I’ve not seen it before and it was truly a treat. Al Green is a forgotten treasure.
Al Green is my favorite of all time!!! Amazing!
Bee Gees wrote this and of corse recoded it. It is one of their greatest hits. Funny that you mentioned just like Barry, now I think you know what you need to do.
Let us see your reaction to the Bee Gees singing this
Love you guys xx
Al Green "Lets Stay Together" ❤
I love that Jay had no clue this was Barry's song. From the TITLE, I thought he did! You've GOT to hear Barry sing it, Jay! It's my favorite of his!! He even named his documentary "How To Mend A Broken Heart"
That’s exactly what I was thinking!😂😂
Definitely
True!
I found it funny that while unboxing the packages that He didn’t get the connection while reading the title of the documentary of course it’s their song. Watch the documentary How can You Mend a Broken Heart and read the magazine I sent
@@elizabethfranco1284 That's am amazing gift! I've watched it several times & it's truly amazing! I learned so much!
Thanks for the smile 😊☮️❤️🌻👵🏼
Saw Al green in a bar in NYC 30 years ago. Was not ready for his talent. All of us there were mesmerized by what we were hearing.
Great artist with a great voice. Try hearing "I'm So Tired Of Being Alone" "Let's Stay Together" "Put A Little Love In Your Heart" "Judy" "So You're Leaving".
those are all my favs 🥰
I think I like the original version of “Put a Little Love In Your Heart” by Jackie DeShannon a little bit better. Maybe because that it’s the one I grew up with.
@@G-grandma_Army completely different song, and different artist! But it is good.
@@michaelmacdermott6340 i thought it was the same song. Been many years. Guess I’ll have to go listen to them both agains. Thanks for giving me an excuse :)
@@G-grandma_Army LOVE always has a purpose, go and enjoy!
🙏🏻☝🏻❤️
The original version of "Take Me to the River" is by Al Green. His version is much more soulful than "The Talking Heads" version. And I love the Talking Heads
Ooh come on do some Talking Heads
I love both versions of that song but distinctly different sounding.
Al Green has always been my favorite! He is the King of Soul!!!
Yes! 💛
Expresive and wonderful voice the man the voice al green
The Bee Gees released this in 1971. Love Al Green’s version. Al also did another cover of FOR THE GOOD TIMES originally done by Ray Price and written by Kris Kristofferson. Kris wrote Me and Bobby McGee that Janis Joplin sang. Back to Al Green, his version of FOR THE GOOD TIMES is amazing! ✌️
Soul Train version
My favorite Barry Gibb vocal & Bee Gees song - and Al Green KILLED it! You have no idea how many times I've watched this performance. I get chills every time! ❤
YASSSS!!! Al Green is a fave of mine. Sitting in the porch swing listening to Al Green is the best. Next Song: *Still In Love With You* such a great range in this song
It’s like the microphone is just there, an inanimate thing. God bless you Al 🙌🏼💙 my my my
I love that you guys don't stick to a genre. You are all over the place and I love it. In the 70's there were so many crossover hits. We listened to soul, country, rock, easy listening... everything all on the same radio station!!
This was written by Barry and Robin Gibb when they reunited after being broken up for nearly 2 years. It’s also the Bee Gees first song to reach #1 in the US.
The Bee Gees had broken up over egos in 1970, they reconciled in 1971 and gathered at Barry’s house and wrote this song. They were still living in England at the time but this became there first #1 hit in the USA.
"For The Good Times" ... he really makes you feel his pain in this song.
When I first saw Al Green perform this video I thought it was impressive, but do you know how difficult it is to have that vocal dominant range with a microphone mid-show? Wow, he was a vocal technical marvel.
Al Green was kicked out of the family home when his very religious father caught him listening to Wilson Pickett. Now there is a singer you need to hear too, if you don't know him already. I suggest In The Midnight Hour to start (horns, Amber!)
They did Wilson Pickett last week as Tom Jones described him as a great influence.
Funky Broadway!!
Al Green and Marvin Gaye are two of the most iconic artists of all time as far as I'm concerned.
I personally wouldn't go that far, myself. However, I do know why you said that. They are both brilliant!
Yep - lets throw Luther in the mix.
I vividly remember when Al Green came on the music scene around 1970. I was 7 years old. I think Let's Stay Together was the first song I heard. My step cousin absolutely loved him. She's the reason I even knew about him. His music never sounds old to me.
One of my all time favorite artist. His stage presence is just amazing.
LOL!!! I’m dying. J just looked at Barry like, “Dude, I’m sorry, but I may have a new favorite singer.”
Barry wrote the song though.
@@jonothandoeser
Some will become Al's followers, We understand it~ but no one can compete!~
Barry is BEST!
He's in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Gospel Music Hall of Fame, and the Songwriter's Hall of Fame. He's the pastor of the Full Gospel Tabernacle in Memphis, TN.
He visited my Baptist church when I was little and even though he was older he still had an amazing voice, I’ll never forget it. Not to mention his service hit me deeper than any I’d heard before.
This was really nice. Been an Al Green superfan for many years and hadn't heard him do this song before!
Just beautiful I’ve never listened to Al green but omg I got goosebumps I’m crying but I still love my bee gees thank you Amber great great song 🙏🏻🙏🏻
As much as I like Al’s version, the original by the BeeGees will always be my favorite.
Nowhere near as good as Als version
@@bobhook336 Sorry. No way.
I prefer the musical arrangement and the soul vocal of the AL Greene version more. I think the Soul vocal arrangement carries more emotional impact then the BeeGees collective soft high tone. Even when pronouncing fractions of the lyric words Al muddles/turns the phrasing to a soul sound like when he pronounces it as "what i'm tryin to say is", that is masterful. When you add the background horns on top of his performance it makes a deeper emotional vibe than the BeeGees muster.
The BeeGees' studio version is one of my all time favorites.
Love and Happiness should definitely be heard. I had a huge crush on him when I was in high school. He has so much soul 💕
I nearly lost my mind, Jordan, when you turned and looked at Barry when Rev. Al hit that high note because Barry and his brother wrote this song!!!
I just loved this reaction video, been a fan of Al Green since I was a kid in the 1970's.
There is a great version of "Let's Stay Together" live from a David Letterman Anniversary special with Al Green and Toni Childs accompanied by an All Star Band! Check it out!
Btw, this reaction video made me 😊 smile!
Take Care, Jordan & Amber. ✌
In a interview with Larry king Barry speaks of the many covers of mend a broken heart and stated Al recording was the best of all of them.
Listen to Al's studio version everybody it a gem.
One of my very very favorite R&B performers from back in the day! Get a chance please react to his very first hit “let’s stay together”, that’s what got me started with the great Al Green
And now that little 'Al' shaped hole in your soul, that you didn't know was there, is filled 😄
'Simply Beautiful ' will make your knees go ☺
Oh my gosh!! I have not heard this. It's wonderful. Love Al Green.
I would have paid money to see your reaction when you found out this was Barry’s song!🤣🤣🥰🥰
He is now a Preacher in Memphis. His church is right around the corner from my job.
How Awesome! I'd be there every week!
Al Green, voice, smooth,sexy vocals and legendary tone, perfect combination of voice control at it's best, but you all facing expressions and comments about hearing Al Green for the first time priceless ☺️
I love Al Green! There is no one like him! Many have imitated him but never duplicated! His voice is powerful and like butter at the same time! ❤❤
It would have been nice if you'd started with one of his biggest hits. There's none bigger than his first, "Let's Stay Together." One of the greatest R&B songs ever.
Al’s as cool as it gets!
His great songs are oft about relationships and his smile is *brilliant!*
One of the best R&B dudes of all time! 🤘
Al Green prince of soul! He's one of very few artist that sounds even better live.
Whenever my mother played Al Green I knew she was going out. "I'm Still In Love With You" is an album I can listen to from first song to last no skips!
"How Can You Mend a Broken Heart" is a song released by the Bee Gees in 1971. It was written by Barry and Robin Gibb in 1970 and was the first single on the group's 1971 album Trafalgar. It was their first US No. 1 single and also reached No. 1. Al Green recorded the song for his album Let's Stay Together in 1972.
That was hysterical…this is a cover of a Bee Gees song!
😂 I'd love to see his face when he finds out! 🤣
@@dv3507 It doesn't matter the point is Al Greens awesomeness that's what they're freaking out over.
Being a cover doesn't mean it isn't awesome. I've heard plenty of covers of different songs. Some covers are different from the originals but they are still good.
I've noticed over the years, whether it's hearing a song for the first time or eating a certain food for the first time, people tend to like the first one better and compare everything else to it. Example: I heard a cover of Hey Jude before I knew it was a Beatles song. I like the cover better.
@@mildredpierce4506 of course!
@@harr77 my point is that he loved the song (Al's version) and he loves Barry but he had no idea his guy Barry wrote it and performed it first. He's going to be surprised! My comment takes nothing away from Al's version.
It’s funny when he hit the falsetto, you looked at Barry and probably had no idea that Barry wrote that song! LMAO. I loved your reaction
Al Green deserves a place on your wall, his music was iconic. You definitely need to hear more of his best songs. Great reactions!
Their wall is reserved for mainly rock, country and pop artist.
Your absolute best reaction yet. First time I've heard this too. This guy is a true artist.
I hope you guys realize this song is a remake of none other than your boy’s favorite band, THE BEE GEES. Now you guys need to do the hit version of HOW CAN YOU MEND A BROKEN HEART that The Bee Gees took to #1 in 1971. It’s on TH-cam. You’ll love it.
One of The most soulful voices from the past that you will fine. I absolutely love this man’s work. And he was from my moms generation. These are my all-time Al Green favorites:
Tired of Being Alone
Call Me (Come Back Home)
I’m Still in Love with You
Here I Am (Come and Take Me)
Love and Happiness
Let’s Stay Together
I Can’t Get Next to You
You Ought to Be with Me
For the Goodtimes
Sha La La (Make me happy)
Barry would expect you to look at him after hearing Al's voice of which Barry would agree is magnificent!
Marc Cohn sings about "the reverand Green". He's talking about The Reverand Al Green, who has a church in Memphis. This song was written by the Gibb Brothers. Al Green is a treasure on the level of Otis Redding and Wilson Pickett.
You mean in Marc Cohn's song "Walking in Memphis". Yes, he's got a lyric about Al Green. Maybe they could listen to Marc Cohn's Walking in Memphis
Al Green did a great version too of "I Can't Get Next to You" (originally recorded by The Temptations). I love both versions. Both worth a listen.
YES!! Please do more Al Green. Amber? Please react with Jay to "Love & Happiness" and "Let's Stay Together." Al Green is one of the greatest singers of all time. Anyone who doesn't love Al is crazy! So glad you guys are digging into this music!
YES Al Green is my favorite artist of all time! My mama loved him and raised me with him. When I lost her a few years back I saw he was on tour and sold a bunch of my stuff so I could go FRONT ROW at the Chicago theatre! I even caught one of the roses he threw to the audience and have it in a frame now. Let me tell you this man was 72 or 73 when I saw him and he still absolutely killed it. Night of a lifetime.
When he hits that note though I love your reaction!!! And look how he STEPS BACKWARDS. He makes love to that mic haha this performance.
Listen to the note at the end of his version of "Can't Get Next to You". Mariah who? My husband calls it "the mosquito". The man has a range and voice like none other. So fun to see others having the same reactions to him! He's a straight up experience that comes over you. To see him go straight to your faves is so great. Nobody my age knows him. I hope you got that pic put up!
This is a cover of a Bee Gee's song. Rob, I think you know what you need to do! :)
"Let's Stay Together" is my favorite of his
LOVED your reaction to this gem of a song. What an amazing song. Glad you guys loved this.
I had 2 of his albums, amazing singer and the arrangements are great. He is an amazing performer, the only regret I have I didn't see him live.
I agree Al greens version is great but you have to hear Barry and Robin sing it.
This is a Bee Gees original. I don't think you've reacted to that one, seems like the next logical thing to do.
Was blessed to see Al Green in concert around ‘73 or ‘74. Fantastic performance….by the audience…..as Al just possessed everybody!
Wow never heard Al Green cover this great Bee Gees song! Love it! Very jazzy.
Great reaction to the incomparable Al Green! And Jay, Mama's fixin' to take you to school! And she's right, I didn't think you'd be into Al. I have some of his albums from the 70's and my wife and I still play them. Can't wait to see you react to more of Al Green!
You have to listen to the Bee Gees do this. Barry really does bring it on this song.
Yes, Al Green! Many more you can hear from him.
OH MY GOSH!!!! Thank you for introducing me to him! Fantastic!!
Amber...you have to let him listen to Love And Happiness!
Oh the soul in that man’s voice!
Great reaction! He is the REVEREND Al Green.
'Look What You Done For Me' is one of Al Green's best songs, IMHO. That voice, the beat, the horns, and the organ make this an Al Green song that'll send shivers down your spine. 🌞
I've been listening to this since it came
Out, in my opinion, It's a masterpiece!!!!
Please go down the Al Green rabbit hole,
You Will Not be disappointed!!!!
Thank you for doing this song 💞💞💞💞
The reaction that I would have liked to see is when you realized that this song is from the Bee Gees.
Great reaction… More Al Green PLZZZZ AND THANK YOU ‼️‼️🙌🏾🙌🏾
Al Green is something else...I love him! Had the joy of seeing him in concert :) His voice has been a part of my life for a long time.
My older sister was in love with Al Green when we were kids and I had to swear fealty to him in order not to be murdered in my sleep. Now the Reverend always brings good memories.
I’m 56 now but when I was 12 my best friend who was 14 called me up to come over a listen to an 8 track of al greens greatist hits. We started listening to it at 4 pm and didn’t stop until the next morning. His passion for sing his songs is so deep it’s mezmorizing.
This also lets you know how great legendary singers were live , a lot of singers couldn’t or can’t pull it off live🎤🎤🎤🎤
Written and recorded by The Bee Gees Al Green loved it so much he recorded it.
Al Green's vocal style is an 'experience.' It's singular and Instantly recognizable.
Lol..I was gonna say its a Bee Gee song. He will be totally " SHOOK "when he finds out, its gonna be to funny.
This is one of my all time favourite songs period! The raw soul and emotion and smoothness, can't help but close your eyes and sway and feel the whole song through your whole body. Amazing reaction! You kept interrupting his moments when he was in the zone with the music lol
One of my favorites from childhood, Al Green...First time for me hearing this, too!!!
I love Al Green, but actually love the Bee Gees version of this particular song better The song was written by Barry and Robin Gibbs.
Al Green is awesome, but I agree, I prefer the Bee Gees version better. Al's doing too many "tricks" with his voice. I'm not a fan when singers do that.
Agree! I absolutely love hearing the Bee Gees sing this song!
I'll third this. I like the Bee Gees version a bit better.
Honestly no one can sing this song like Barry.
I like Al Green's version better
You’re really on it today guys glad you’re finally getting to all this great music
OMG Al Green was my father's favorite probably still is. That voice of his is unparalleled. You guys need to try others like Teddy pendergrass Eddie Holman all of their distinctive bluesy R&b sounds were just wonderful to listen to
Breathtaking vocals and performance! Chills 🤯
