We love them so much for their legendary talent but also because they were so down-to-earth and humble. That is not an easy combination to find among mega stars. Even now, Barry (according to his son) is painfully humble. They were just so human and easy to love.
You didn't hear anyone complain about Barry's voice back in the day. We, the fans loved the Bee Gees and Barry's voice was a bonus. His voice fit right into the disco sound.
Robin was with Lesley at the start of the video. Now we know he really WAS a Gibb because they look so alike although he didn't look much like his brothers. She saved him from drowning as a toddler and Robin was always her "baby".
Such a great song! I loved all the pictures that were put in this video! The love these brothers shared was so evident. It brought tears to my eyes seeing them all together. 💖💖🙂🙂😢
Listening to certain BeeGees songs I feel that Barry saw certain things before they happened.Its like he was preparing himself for a future without his brothers. They sang the songs together ,but it seemed that Barry was alone.Especially songs like "Reaching out",,and "Alone".I remember an interview his mother Barbara did saying Barry hated being alone. These guys are so amazingly talented.Barry must get a lot of inspiration from them.R.I.P. Twins and Andy.
Another beautiful song sung by those boys with their wonderful voices. They can do no wrong in my opinion as they always deliver a fantastic performance. Thank you for your reaction chaired I always enjoy them
Absolutely beautiful song. So sad that Mo, Robin, and Andy are gone. This makes me think of Barry. When recording this he had no idea that he would be only brother left in the end. This song can have so many interpretations as it can be about a lost love too. I’ve lost most of my family so it has special meaning to me. The vocals and emotions are amazing. Falsetto was very appropriate here. Love this!!
Oh Yes Chad, starting off the weekend with "Spirits." "Reaching Out " is so beautiful. I'm a fan of this beautiful falsetto, and Barry's vibrato. Even though they do it all the time, these guys are the master of key changes and tonal surprises. The sadness, the build, the beautiful harmony all make this one a winner. Shallow note - My heart flutters with the quick picture of the "Spirits"Tour and Barry shirtless - Yeah to who ever put the slide show together.
So soft, I love these guys..So talented they never fail to amaze me. The greatest group ever. Great start to our wonderful weekend. Thank you forever Chad you are the best reactor.
Thank you Chad. Beautiful singing on this one by Barry and his brothers. The Bee Gees consistently were Reaching Out to us their audience through different emotions, artforms, languages, genres, and artists who performed their songs. They gave so much, through so much, for so long.
Carol Espinoza - Nobody seemed to notice Lesley at the start of the video. At least we know Robin really is a Gibb. Those two look so alike. She saved him from drowning when he was a toddler and he was always her "baby".
The Spirits album was a great album. And the vocals fit the songs. Even Barry said that he got tired of singing falsetto at times but that's what people wanted. Now he does what he wants pretty much, I think he did very little of it he said on Greenfields. Mostly he used his natural voice, which is very good anyway. He's very talented.
I always cry when I listen to this song, The lyrics and the falsettos sound so besutiful and angelic. The falsettos convey high emotions to me. That. is a very beautiful part when combined with the beautiful lyrics and melody.
Adore this song, definitely shows the blue eye soul of the Bee Gees. Always brings tears to my eyes, the sadness, I truly love Barry's voice in this one (reminds me of the Stylistics). Thanks Chad for putting it on the weekend menu❤
In the Saturday Night Fever songs, Robin sang in unison, in chest voice, with Barry, which smoothed the sharp edges off Barry’s falsetto. People thought it was one voice. It even fooled a lot of music critics. They didn’t do that in the Sprits Having Flown era. I know other fans loved it, but it’s one cd that won’t be added to my collection.
What a song Chad ... how long have I not listened to this beautiful song ... this beautiful song is a caress to the soul ... it really is one of my favorites ... without words ... Congratulations Chad ... I see that you were overwhelmed ...! ! 👏👏👏👏👏💪💪💪
A quick thought, that second picture (after Mo blowing bubbles) is Robin and their older sister Lesley. We hardly ever see a picture of her. That was nice.
It's always a great day to enjoy songs from the Bee Gees. Even better spent with other Bee Gee fans. Thanks for this selection, I enjoyed it very much. Great insight into the song and their history.
Please react to Robin’s solo song Elan Vannin, and ideally the official video with the King William’s College Choir. It was filmed on location on the Isle of Mann - their birthplace - and includes verses he wrote to go with what is considered the Manx national anthem.
Thank you for starting the weekend with this touching and awesome song. Their songs and amazing voices were just the best of the best on so many levels....!!!!
Chad ....the highest note that Barry has sung in his life , was at the very end of staying alive is an E 9 in the piano scale. you can hear this highest note in 4:27 Stayin' Alive - Bee Gees (lyrics) - TH-cam
Chad, thanks for bringing us such great bee Gees music. Have you listened to the entire cd Still Waters? It is absolutely fantastic. The Gibb brothers change their sound. The songs are on fused with an rhythm and blues sound and a pop sound. I Surrender is absolutely great, but the entire cd is great. I can't emphasize that enough. Can you add this cd to a Bee Gees selection for one of your podcasts? You won't regret it. Thanks for the positivity that you bring to this world.
Great start to our Bee Gees weekend, Chad. Another beautiful song from "Spirits". Wonderful to chill out with today. Waiting patiently for your next reaction!
I know many people argue about the overuse of falsetto but to me it happened afterwards, at the end of the 80s, but just because his voice changed drastically not because I didn't like the falsetto anymore, by the time of this album all three were at their prime, also those demos recorded for Barbara and Diana are astonishing good. In fact now I was listening to my entire album and that brought me here and I like it as much as I liked it in 1979, or even more.
Chad, you are right on the money with this one. The falsetto is so smooth and the harmonies. I actually forgot about this one until I started listening. It was a nice surprise to hear it again! I noticed in the pictures that the second picture is of Robin with their sister Leslie. She is the oldest sibling. She lives in Australia. Also I did recognize a lot of the pictures. However it seems that many of them were the bloopers. You know out of a set of five pictures usually only one makes it to the public. So somebody had access to these other pictures. Interesting indeed.
Thank you so much 💓 first when I saw the title of the song ,I don't know the song But when I hear the melody and the voices, oh wow i heard it before You know Chad I'm very happy,why???because you make me realize that I'm already a bee gees fan before way back my elementary days.this is great I'm so happy 😊☺thank you chad
I liked the falsetto but yes I think it was over used. I love Barry's voice tho because he knows how to bring it down to a whisper. I love his booming voice in Nights on Broadway. Have you ever watched either the 1971 or 1974 Melbourne concerts? Both are great for different reasons. One is in Black and white but it makes it more personal. Idk if you react to concerts or not but they're interesting.
Así es, a mucha gente demasiado falsetto de Barry los alejó de los BEE GEES...sobre todo cuando TODA la línea principal es en falsetto y muy poca intervención de los TWINS... llegó a saturar... él tiene excelente voz "de pecho"... Seguir con el falsetto le garantizaba el protagonismo como líder vocal, desplazando a Robin. Y MAURICE que tiene una voz espectacular pero no sé si él decidió realmente no cantar. yo adoro a los BEE GEES, pero hay que reconocer que BARRY se sintió el dueño del grupo, los productores lo enfatizaba por su imagen, fue hasta modelo en Vogue y, más allá de su talento, sometió bastante a los TWINS y se volvió muy "narciso". ROBIN tuvo razón cuando se sintió lastimado por las diferencias que hacían. A ROBIN le llamaban "el más feo"... eran adolescentes... Barry se burlaba de sus movimientos pero nunca lo ví bailar a él. Y lo que dijo después de la muerte de todos " tendría que haber DEJADO que Robin cantará más canciones" habla de su totalitarismo y eso del "hermano mayor" , ya eran TODOS GRANDES...Y así decretó seguir indefinidamente con el falsetto, al que MAURICE y Robin llegaban también. Basta ver cómo no los deja hablar en las entrevistas.hasta que un día Mo le dice " no me interrumpas" .."si, perdón, te interrumpí recién " y Mo agregó "SIEMPRE nos interrumpes"... Todo en un tono muy suave, Mo era un dulce, pero no aguantó más. Barry tuvo su mejor canción en LINDA, su compañera bellísima ,sensual e incondicional que lo cuidó de todo. Lo dice él mismo. Otra hubiera Sido la historia sin una mujer como ella al lado. divorcios, adicciones .. éso también le hacía sentir una "superioridad " moral frente a los TWINS. y no estuvo bien. Robin tuvo muchos problemas con su primer y temprana mujer, y la segunda. Buehhhh.. MAURICE se recuperó pero no con Lulú, que tenía un divismo infernal... Yo tengo debilidad por los TWINS sobre BARRY...no me importa cuan sex symbol fuera... No tenía el especial carisma de los TWINS y ellos eran bellísimos y superdotados de talento... Y la voz de Robin, por Dios!!!! Es ESTREMECEDORA!! Por suerte después volvieron a la voz de pecho, a un protagonismo compartido más equitativamente...y cómo siempre, fueron SUBLIMES...juntos, los tres, IGUALMENTE MARAVILLOSOS. ❤️❤️😍😍😍😍
The songs, which are mostly sung in falsetto, are usually not among my favorites. But I find this song very beautiful and soft. Thank you Chad for your reactions. I think they are very profound. You just notice that there is already some wisdom of life. Your videos are for adults.:-) Is that the reason your channel is still the only one I subscribed??!!
The problem with the falsetto on the Spirits album is that they chose to do the harmonies in falsetto as well. Compare that to the harmonies, say on "Night Fever", where they blend in natural voices, which to me is much easier to listen to. When you listen to the Spirits album straight through, by the time you get to "Living Together", the voices start sounding shrill. The writing and production was top notch on that album, but all the falsetto leads make everything sound so similar, when there are varied styles on that album, none of which is disco.
The best falsetto i have ever heard. The range is superb. I love the music. I can liten to it ovwr and over without getting tired of the melody.
Love this one....BEE GEES...❤
But Barry's high range is perfection, its not forced or cracking...its beautiful 😍
Three gorgeous men inside and out!
bee gees crying everyday
Such a beautiful song 🤩🤩🤩😭😭😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️.
We love them so much for their legendary talent but also because they were so down-to-earth and humble. That is not an easy combination to find among mega stars. Even now, Barry (according to his son) is painfully humble. They were just so human and easy to love.
You didn't hear anyone complain about Barry's voice back in the day.
We, the fans loved the Bee Gees and Barry's voice was a bonus. His voice fit right into the disco sound.
“SPIRITS HAVING FLOWN” The album is a Masterpiece!
Barry’s falsettos, changed the brothers lives.
"SPIRITS" and "Here at Last Live" kept me company and semi-sane when I had a new job, new place in new city
💖❣️Love love this song and Barry's falsetto. 💞
Robin was with Lesley at the start of the video. Now we know he really WAS a Gibb because they look so alike although he didn't look much like his brothers. She saved him from drowning as a toddler and Robin was always her "baby".
Such a great song! I loved all the pictures that were put in this video! The love these brothers shared was so evident. It brought tears to my eyes seeing them all together. 💖💖🙂🙂😢
Love the song. Also love these pictures that show how much they loved each other and how they shared the same sense of humor & laughed a lot.
They were probably the only group that had fun doing a lot of hard work. Shows how much they loved it
@4:58 that's Keppel Road in Manchester, the street they grew up on.
I recently saw the doc.
Listening to certain BeeGees songs I feel that Barry saw certain things before they happened.Its like he was preparing himself for a future without his brothers.
They sang the songs together ,but it seemed that Barry was alone.Especially songs like
"Reaching out",,and "Alone".I remember an interview his mother Barbara did saying Barry hated
being alone.
These guys are so amazingly talented.Barry must get a lot of inspiration from them.R.I.P. Twins and Andy.

😊 chad .gran análisis de este.gran composición de los bee gees. Abrazo

This song can have so many interpretations as it can be about a lost love too. I’ve lost most of my family so it has special meaning to me. The vocals and emotions are amazing.

Whenever I hear this track Chad, the harmonies just 'washover me'. It's simple therapy.
My Sweet Lord….Robin at 4:23 with a beard!!!!! Made my heart skip a beat….
New song for me…will put in my request to find it…
Loved the beard, always thought he should have kept it for longer than he did
I liked it too. Must have been around the time of the LA Forum concert. Seems like he had it on the "Here At Last Live" album.
Oh Yes Chad, starting off the weekend with "Spirits." "Reaching Out " is so beautiful. I'm a fan of this beautiful falsetto, and Barry's vibrato. Even though they do it all the time, these guys are the master of key changes and tonal surprises. The sadness, the build, the beautiful harmony all make this one a winner. Shallow note - My heart flutters with the quick picture of the "Spirits"Tour and Barry shirtless - Yeah to who ever put the slide show together.
Chills beautiful falsetto,love it💕
So soft, I love these guys..So talented they never fail to amaze me. The greatest group ever. Great start to our wonderful weekend. Thank you forever Chad you are the best reactor.
❣️❣️❣️

That song is sad to hear. So much emotion in that song. Everytime i am listening to that song i feel like i want to cry my heart, my mind and my soul.
Great song, and what beautiful pictures. I havent seen alot of them.💞💞💞 thank you chad great start this weekend.🥰
Carol Espinoza - Nobody seemed to notice Lesley at the start of the video. At least we know Robin really is a Gibb. Those two look so alike. She saved him from drowning when he was a toddler and he was always her "baby".
Susie q. She looks more his twin than mo in that picture 😲😲😲. You have great eyes👍😍
Awesome.
The Spirits album was a great album. And the vocals fit the songs. Even Barry said that he got tired of singing falsetto at times but that's what people wanted.

thank you Chad, Barry´s falsetto sounds so natural, i love LOVE his falsetto at this time
Yes, a great weekend kick of.
Adore this song, definitely shows the blue eye soul of the Bee Gees. Always brings tears to my eyes, the sadness, I truly love Barry's voice in this one (reminds me of the Stylistics). Thanks Chad for putting it on the weekend menu❤

It even fooled a lot of music critics. They didn’t do that in the Sprits Having Flown era. I know other fans loved it, but it’s one cd that won’t be added to my collection.
This is why CD singles existed and single downloads exist today. Every Bee Gee album had something for every fan.
Such a beautiful song. Makes me think of my mom actually.
Love this song. Love these pictures, awww there’s Andy in these too. ♥️♥️♥️♥️
What a song Chad ... how long have I not listened to this beautiful song ... this beautiful song is a caress to the soul ... it really is one of my favorites ... without words ... Congratulations Chad ... I see that you were overwhelmed ...! ! 👏👏👏👏👏💪💪💪
Thanks for the great reaction. The Bee Gees were and will always be the best, ❤️
A quick thought, that second picture (after Mo blowing bubbles) is Robin and their older sister Lesley. We hardly ever see a picture of her. That was nice.
Found, the family resemblance for Robin. I had often thought they looked alike. She always remained pretty low profile.
I see some resemblance to her father too.
Hi Chad!. Another amazing reaction. Love this song SO MUCH
Love Bee Gees Foreve 👏👏👏👏
Thanks for reacting to this song. Love the BeeGees.
How I love this song.To the depths of my being,that’s how.
Thank you what a beautiful song but so sad ❤
Wow, I just listened to this the other day (same video in fact). Spirits another's great album and this was a great ballad off it.❤
💖🙂😢💖 *******Such a range emotions with this song********** 💖🙂😢💖
Another beautiful song from Bee Gees I just heard..thank you Chad!
Chad thanks , for this songs the Beegees. So beatiful , wonderful
Today and forever.
Happy weekend
Thanks! If you hear only the voice you know it could be only the Bee Gees.
It's always a great day to enjoy songs from the Bee Gees. Even better spent with other Bee Gee fans. Thanks for this selection, I enjoyed it very much. Great insight into the song and their history.
Spirit having flown Best album
Please react to Robin’s solo song Elan Vannin, and ideally the official video with the King William’s College Choir. It was filmed on location on the Isle of Mann - their birthplace - and includes verses he wrote to go with what is considered the Manx national anthem.
I've been waiting for that one for months! It was Robin's dying tribute to his birthplace.
Yes! That's a beautiful song and video.
Thank you for starting the weekend with this touching and awesome song. Their songs and amazing voices were just the best of the best on so many levels....!!!!
Very well said on "I believe in yesterday..."
This really hits my spot!
Thank you for sharing.
Another beautiful song that I love the most from The Bee Gees. Nice one Chad! Thank you.
Thank you for this reaction. 🙂
Chad ....the highest note that Barry has sung in his life , was at the very end of staying alive is an E 9 in the piano scale. you can hear this highest note in 4:27 Stayin' Alive - Bee Gees (lyrics) - TH-cam
Great reaction Chad! 💯 I believe this song wouldn't be as powerful without Barry's beautiful and soulful falsetto! ❤
Li ho adorati dal primo ascolto.
BEEGEES MEDLEY 1989

Maravilhoso Barry Gibb e seu falseto
Chad, Robin was Vibrato and Barry and Mo were the Falsettos.
Thank you so much for your reaction to one of my favorite song awesome job

Great song and lovley picture of them together smiling and having fun . You can see how close they was x
👏👏👏👏👏
Very good!! REACT LIVE OR DIE BEE GEES...
Barry's falsetto is not from this Planet ❤❤❤

Hi Chad . . . . . . . . . . . Have you seen this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guilty_Pleasures_(Barbra_Streisand_album) . . They made another album.
The problem with the falsetto on the Spirits album is that they chose to do the harmonies in falsetto as well. Compare that to the harmonies, say on "Night Fever", where they blend in natural voices, which to me is much easier to listen to. When you listen to the Spirits album straight through, by the time you get to "Living Together", the voices start sounding shrill. The writing and production was top notch on that album, but all the falsetto leads make everything sound so similar, when there are varied styles on that album, none of which is disco.
Now this is a valid critique even the most fanatical of Bee Gees fans (me) can accept. Well said and well done.
