This is one of the best songs ever written, sung by the best group from back then, still now and probably forever... Being filmed in New York, with the Twin Towers in the background, made it even more special and poignant for me...
I always notice the Twin Towers too.
Seeing the twin towers and thinking of Robin and Mo being gone…. Very emotional
@@generationgapreacts Not only the twin towers but you can of course also see the Statue Of Liberty in the background as well! :)
When Robin kicks in he steals the WHOLE thing! What an amazing song!
Barry Gibb when asked in a interview what his favourite Bee Gees song was, he replied this one.
Absolutely brilliant song, performance, and video ..... Robyn Gibb, what a voice .
All of your reactions to Bee Gee's songs have been great. Thank you for introducing your daughter to The Bee Gee's. I enjoy watching and hearing the younger generation get introduced to music from the 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's
It is incredibly hard to pick a favourite Beegee's song as there are so many to choose from, but for me this one just scrapes it as my favourite
Love the reaction to this song, especially the daughter's reaction when Robin started singing. Her eyes popped out once Robin sang the chorus. The two of you are now, officially, members of the worldwide Robin devotees. We love him and his voice. His voice is incomparable and just so magnificent. You must hear more of Robin's songs, particularly Massachusetts, Mr. Natural, I Gotta Get a Message to You, I Started a Joke, etc. He will keep wowing you with his voice and the emotions he sings with. I want to see your reactions to these songs. LOL!
Definitely Robin devotee! Check out Massachusetts and I Started A Joke (may or may not cry again in that video). And the others are on our long list of bee gees songs to tackle soon ☺️
@@generationgapreacts Awesome! Will check them out, but also do I Gotta Get a Message to You and Mr. Natural. Robin really shines on those songs, as well.
Amen! Robin ❤
I totally agree, love the daughter reaction. Swinging her head left to right,right to lift and when Robin sings, her eyes was, “Huh, WOW! “ 🥰. This song definitely gets me emotional, every single time I hear this . Bee Gees #1!
Now to see Mo sing lead do closer than close man in the middle
What is it about the Bee Gees that makes a grown man cry? Such a great great song
Bee Gees are the best.. love them, a beautiful Robin lead song is.... Don't fall in love with me Baby....A Maurice lead song Closer than Close....great songs.
Thanks ladies!!
This is off the Bee gees 1993 album titled
Size Isn't Everything
Good album
Robin Gibb greatest Vibrato singer to have ever lived, miss him so much ❤😢
When Barry and Robin sing separate verses and then together, the contrast makes the lyrics all the more stunning. This song also shows Robin's power. Usually he sings more softly, almost like a cry. Although not as pronounced in this song, NOBODY had Robin's vibrato. He was variously called the "Songbird" or "The Pavarotti of Pop". Vibrato is something you either have or do not. Some claim it can be learned with much effort but not from what I have read or heard. His was untrained, effortless and totally natural. It is an absolutely accurate variation in pitch a dozen times in a millisecond. I've heard it described like AC (alternating current) and it involves the central nervous system's effect on the vocal chords. Right, don't forget Mo's voice is in there too! Notice the twin towers?
Well said, Q, well said! You and your friend have a wonderful trip. I'd give anything to go with you. Just promise me when you visit our sweet angel that you tell him how much I love him and take wonderful pictures to share with all of us when you get back. 💖
What ever is powering Robins voice is pure magic. Loved this song so much
@@lauriebarnes2999 - Thanks. Will visit Robin's resting place on Sunday. I have little flags for several countries the RG's are from (Canada, the US and Colombia).
@@susieq9801 I love that. Thank you.
Very insightful, thank you! Lovely response
Barry starts this off in an extraordinary r&b falsetto. Then he and Robin sing in unison before Robin unleashes the magic. The power in his voice soars to the heavens. To me, this is an anthem. One of things I like best (and there are many) about these brothers is the way they play to each others gifts. The contrast between Robin and Barry is stunning, but listen to their unison, their voices are in perfect pitch. Can you tell which is which? Oh, and Mo is the Webster's definition of cool. Their is a line in his 1970 song, "Railroad" that goes "I ain't juiced none of that glory." Every time I hear him sing it, I think only he is so totally cool enough to pull that off. I love seeing Alan right there playing guitar with them. This song is sad, I understand it was written about Andy's break up with his "TV star" girlfriend. This is only 5 years after his passing, so you can tell grieving is still going on. Lastly, I love this song so much, but this video gives me goosebumps. The twin towers are in the background. There truly is a "hole in my soul."
We were thinking that about New York and seeing the twin towers behind them, and sad that Robin and Mo are gone too. It was an emotional song all around. Like I said, song perfection!
Ii believe this song was written for Andy as a tribute after his death.
wow thinking it was only me who was crying when robin sang what a heartfeld reaction love from Denmark
WOW!! they never let us down such great music, so sad we ll never see a group like this again
Sadly no! Thank goodness for their decades of beautiful music
It’s most melodically perfect bee gees song. Check out “you win again” huge come back hit for them in 87
You said so eloquently, “This is like song perfection.”
Robins voice .Heart rendering ❤ sadly departed 😢
Please check out Maurice singing lead in Cloer than close! And check out their children singing Please don’t turn out the lights The Gibb Collective!!!
You are both becoming very addicted to the bee gees.Welcome to the club
I believe the Bee Gees recorded this version of For Whom The Bell Tolls for several reasons, but in particular as a dedication to their younger brother Andy, who died in 1988 at the tender age of 30 years.
I never heard any of the three brothers say they wrote any song for Andy but "Wish You Were Here" but this one and 3 or 4 others are frequently said to be "for Andy" in TH-cam comments. I could be wrong, of course, but this seems particularly unlike a song about a lost brother. I don't think Barry, Robin or Maurice were as obsessed with Victoria Principal's break up with Andy (which this is claimed to reference) as perhaps some fans were. Everyone hates to see a sibling or a friend get their heart broken but generally none of us are still brokenhearted about it ourselves 15 or 16 years later.
I can't begin to tell you how much I love this song. Its the greatest. By far.
react to RUN TO ME from their 1972 album TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN
If you want to react to pure Robin lead songs there would be "Country Lanes" from 1975, "IStarted A Joke" from 1968 or maybe "Lamplight" and "Black Diamond" from 1969.
Then there is "My Life Has Been A Song" from 1972/73, a very repetitive song but Robins vocals are insane.
And there is "The Singer Sang His Song" and "In The Summer Of His Years" and "And The Sun Will Shine" all from 1968.
Or maybe "Wedding Day" from 2001.
There is also his solo works like "Juliet", "Like A Fool", "Boys Do Fall In Love", "Toys", "Please" and more.
Another shared lead would be "I've Gotta Get A Message To You" fra 1968
There is to my knowledge only one song where the 3 brothers has a verse each and that would be "Elisa" from 1973.
Also if you listen to the their "Ellan Vaninn" song, the unofficial anthem for Isle Of Man you will hear Robins distinct voice.
That also goes for their rendition of the Carol King song "Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow", here Robin's part always hits you when he comes in.
But there is so many more that it is hard to choose.
Thanks for your great selections! I would love to hear more of Robin, too.
Bang right on, beegeesbuster1 for 'Country Lanes' being THE song to showcase Robin's remarkable voice. As well as the other ones you mentioned, there is a very early one that also fits as a song to display Robin's voice. 'I Am the World' is another example of Robin at his finest.
Their cover of Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow is better than Carole King's original, in my opinion. It is beautiful.
If you want to hear Robin's voice highlighted you should listen to their 1967 hit "Massachusetts" 👍👍
The Bee Gees are the greatest singers and song writers of all time.
Thanks for showcasing this beautiful song.
Robin has the best voice of all of them in my opinion. Just incredible. I started a joke, is my favourite and showcases his vocals just beautifully. Keep up the great work ladies 😊👍
Thank you again!
Yep what can I say they my favorite band im 70 from dont forget to remember me just love them
Prefect l grew up with beautiful songs like Dont forget to remember me First of may I started a joke but Nights on Broadway to who the bells toll and Lamplight is just on another level Bee Gees the best of the very best
BEAUTIFUL song!! LOVE the combination of Barry and Robin leads and Mo's genius harmonies!! The 4th person is Alan Kendall and sometimes Maurice will introduce him live as "he's been with us longer than we have", lol!! And don't forget Too Much Heaven was also your favorite, lol!! Sooooo many great songs!!
I can’t decide which song is my favorite anymore! My list of favorites keeps growing
Oh robins voice what a loss he was a legend 🙏🙏
There are so many great Bee Gees songs, I thought that only the most popular ones were the best, but after going through most of their albums I found there are a ton more awesome songs.
My experience too! Whatever I listened to and heard on the radio in the 60's-90's were my favorites. Then I made it a point these past few years to really listen to their (almost all) less known tracks. I'm blown away by their genius!
I met Robin wile playing paintball in Florida . I didn’t know it was Him at the time . I thought He looked familiar but at the time I didn’t know . About a week or two later my brother told Me One of the BeeGees was out there play paintball . I wish I would have recognized Him .
That was Maurice who played paintball. He also owned a paintball supply shop called Commander Mo's.
That must have been cool nonetheless!
Have you listened to New York Mining Disaster , another very moving song by them
this is a true winner and they still had "it" here in 93 - mo was super super cool no doubt - especially in this
IT'S A TOSSUP BETWEEN FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLL'S & THERE AMAZING SONG WEDDING DAY YOU WILL AGREE ONCE YOU WATCH THE BLUE AND PURPLE BACKGROUND AND THERE AMAZING VOICES
Robins huge dimples 😍 he owns this if time. Love this song
After the beatles in my mind bee gees greatest uk ex port
Even more perfect when you consider that, as songwriters, they are able to translate their personal tragedy into such a beautiful tribute knowing that so so many listeners can relate... making it somehow comforting to know we are not alone in our grief. After Andy died, their first song was WISH YOU WERE HERE, and also TEARS. Their father died almost 3 years to the day after Andy, they said of a broken heart. They wrote this song that same year. Some of the words sound like it’s written from the point of view of their father, but some certainly their own feelings. It was typical to give the song more commercial appeal by implying a love interest. I’m hesitant to request a reaction to TEARS, but..
Whoever shot video really captured New York, in background, Twin Towers, Statue of Liberty, Manhattan Bridge....wow.
The song was written about their younger brother Andy who died following drug and alcohol addiction struggles after a traumatic break up. He died in the 1970s and it wasn’t until the 1990s that they felt able to write and perform this. He was also a singer in the Uk but I’m not sure whether or not he was known/successful in the USA or just in the UK.
Andy died in 1988 at 30 years old.
You two blew me away. The sentiment is intense.
Thank you Gina ☺️
Wonderful reaction ladies to such a beautiful song! Robin just owns it with his unique vocals. One of my all time favorites from these three amazing men! Please promise me that you'll go back and view their official video with them on top the cliffs. Just awe inspiring!
Yes we definitely will!
The way Robin is standing with his arms up, all I could think is "get down from there before you fall." Scaredy cat in me LOL.
Love Your reactions The Bee Gees lived near my home town in the 70’s at Barsham manor in UK. Another great song sang live to react to Is Tom Jones I’ll never fall in love again 1967. I’m enjoying your reactions ❤
Fanny be tender with my love is up there for me probably top three for sure. The harmonies are unbelievable I love that song.
Making of 'Immortality' 😍 - th-cam.com/video/nw830SLOhJ8/w-d-xo.html or live at th-cam.com/video/DAtjhtjnqXo/w-d-xo.html
Love Love Love this song!! I think what gets lost in the filming is Maurice singing after Barry & before Robin.
The look you two shared @ the 2:04 mark was absolutely priceless. ❤
As Mo always says "Robin has that voice that reaches your heart ". I think he touched her heart right there!❤
@@Zlata1313 💯! I’ve heard this song hundreds of times and still makes me emotional every time I hear it.
Couldn’t help but to play this song 10 more times after filming ❤️
I love the background with the Statue of Liberty and the Twin Towers. The guys look amazing and really deliver.
WOW, maybe I'm the first to view! Black Diamond and Country Roads by Robin are terrific as well as his solo Juliet (live in Berlin). Hint, hint. 😁
I'm right behind you Q. Robin's voice melts my heart. I could listen to Robin all day long.
Tokyo Nights. My World,.... agree 100% with your suggestions too Q!👍
Keep up with the excellent suggestions, Q and Janet!!
Walking Back to Waterloo, Living in Chicago, Mr Natural more great songs to react to...
I have to hear "When He's Gone" too.
Robin has a sweet powerhouse of a voice.
Loved this reaction. Missed it on my recent uploads search but found it on your video list. If you like Robins vouce, you will love his lead in Don't Fall in live with me,. His son Spencer does a hauntingly besutifyl rendition of tis as well. See the Gibb Collective
We certainly do breed some great musical talent in the UK, the Bee Gees were magnificent.
Uhm, to be fair, their whole musical genius journey was fostered and found in Australia.
@@lynw.6140 Started there music career in England went to Australia for 8 years come back and blew up here 🇬🇧
@@samueljames17 Only after all that was done here in Oz..listen to what Barry says…he is Aussie through and through.
@@lynw.6140 he's British like all of them hense the title "Sir" Barry Gibb and hense why they all had houses in England and none in Australia, all British citizen ships aswell, born here, parents are English, stop trying to claim them and enjoy the wiggles 🇬🇧
@@samueljames17 You wish…just listen to what Barry had to say. If you can take it..
They have so many great songs.,.you have a long way to go!
We’re trucking along! So many great songs to get to
Should check out Barry and Michael Jackson duet from 2002 called
All in your name
If you wanna talk about harmonies, try their MTV unplugged version of the song Blue Island, you will be blown away. Its LIVE.... love your reactions.
Thanks Tamer! Love the suggestions
I agree. That performance of Blue Island was harmony perfection.
For me Robin`s voice is on another level. If I may suggest you try "Ellan Vannin" which is the national anthem of the Isle of Man were they born or "Mr Natural", "Nights on Broadway" to start.
Oh you poor things. You've joined the ranks of Bee Gees/Robin Gibb fan girls. So heartbreaking now since Robin and Morris are no longer with us.
Beautiful song! But I LOVE the Bee Gees so much! If you loved this you will certainly love another post disco song of theirs from the 90's called "Wedding Day" This song also features a lot of Robin solo. Its a loving song about a couple's wedding day, obviously, but I find it so precious. Even though all the brothers were on their 2nd marriages, those marriages lasted a lot of yrs for each of them. Maurice's second marriage 28 yrs until he passed away. Robin 27 yrs until he passed. And Barry's 2nd marriage 52 years. So I really commend them for that because that is very unusual in the music business! Another song from the 90's you might like is "One". And I don't think you have reacted to "How Deep is Your Love" which is from the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack. I think that one is my ultimate fave of the Bee Gees...and "Fanny..." haha
We might have one of those song suggestions coming Saturday 🤭 and I’d love to add Wedding Day for a video!
This song shouts out to me......... " You never know what you have until it's gone ". I saw so many male friends in my time that took their partner for granted. If they had only nurtured their relationship it could have grown and stayed strong over time. I made it a point to always be there for whoever I was in a relationship with. Most of the time I got taken for granted which was heartbreaking to say the least. This song brings back a lot of memories from the past. It's melancholy but still beautiful......
Totally agree, even though I was around for most of their career, I never heard this song until a couple of years ago and completely fell in love with it. As far as I know, it never hit the charts or got released as a single so I think that's why it gets overlooked.
This was a Top 5 hit in the UK (reaching Number 4) not sure about elsewhere but it was most definitely released as a single.
Was a big hit all over Europe and other countries, except the US. Overlooking them was many times obvious in the states, so no surprise to me you didn't know about it.
According to Barry, this song did not get the airplay in the US and he voiced his frustration as to why some songs get airplay and some don't. If it had gotten the airplay, surely, this song would have been at least a top 5 song. It is too good.
One of their best! This song is pure gold and it hits me in all the feels. I lovethat you both are reacting to two of my favorite bands ever, BTS and the Bee Gees.
Our favorites too!
'Closer than close' or 'Bodyguard' are great for firstly a Maurice lead song; and secondly a 3 lead song.
This is the greatest song ever written.
Another lost gem that should have been a number one!
I love this song. I always believed it was about missing their younger brother Andy.
Goosebumps every single time that Robin comes in to sing the chorus. I love hearing Barry, then they sing together, then Robin takes over and I am blown away. Mo is really into this song, too. This song just tugs at your heartstrings with the beautiful vocals, music, and the setting there on the New York Harbor with the Twin Towers in thr background. Fantastic reaction to one of my absolute favorite songs by the Bee Gees. Thanks for doing this one, especially this version. ~Sue
Song perfection! It doesn’t get any better than this song
great and honest reaction - subscribed :) For whom the bell tolls also is my all time favorite from the Bee Gees. Another great and often overlooked sond is "Ordinary lives", that I can highly recommend
Thank you! We hope to do Ordinary Lives soon
I understand completely! Robin's fabulous singing is superb. Ofcourse Barry too, I adore Maurice also! When I was a teenager in the 70's I always was playing The Bee Gees. Believe it or not, I did see this from another reactor, but just wanted to know what you thought. It's only about a year ago I actually did see this particular song, it is SUPERB & ofcourse sad, so well written too. The lyrics, wow!! xx 💝💝💝
To me, it's a song like a cathedral. You only can look up open mouthed, wondering what's goin' on. The whole songconstruction is just wonderful and brilliant. And then the singing! Sharing leads between Barry and Robin, both of them superb and phantastic, nothing lesser than genius. And Mr. three-part-harmony, Maurice, bringing the whole thing to perfection at all. Now listen to a song, called 'Give A Hand, Take A Hand', out of the album 'Mr. Natural', their anthemsong. You'll hear stunning chorusses. But check out the original, not the earlier demoversion.
Yes, the cathedral is the New York skyline with such unexpected contrasts between the sweet soft r&b and then the power. I just listened to the Mr. Natural album yesterday. "Give a Hand Take A Hand" is a must for a reaction. (1974 album version - not demo master). Beautiful gospel harmony and the best key change ever.
Great reaction. This is one of their best in a very very very long line of amazing songs.
Instant favorite
My Favorite BeeGee song. Followed by Alive! Ahh heck, so many great songs!
I looked for it, and there it was. Every time I see someone listen to this amazing song for the first time, the immediate look of astonishment when Robin's voice kicks in. One of the most powerful songs ever written and sung in my opinion, and Robin's performance is almost inexplicably good.
I would love to hear and see you react to the Bee Gees "Jumbo" it's an oldie but goodie....Barry sings a riff that will make you want to take a breath for him....Barry just runs with it without taking a breath.....it's amazing!!!!
From the Bee Gees album titled Size isn't everything, 1993
You young ladies get emotional on this one emotion is a sign of a good heart, great song good reaction, thank you. 🌹🌹🇬🇧 🥃
Powerfully emotional song with heart-wrenching lyrics! The title is the same as Ernest Hemingway's classic novel published in 1940. Hemingway himself derived the title from a line of an essay by 17th century writer John Donne. It says, "...any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; therefore, never send to know FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS; it tolls for thee!" So, the title of this song has a fairly illustrious history behind it .
Robin said it was the book that gave him the inspiration for the title to the song. He happened to be looking through a bookshelf full of different books and there was the book with that title. And the rest is history!
When Barry release his album of duets a couple years ago, he did a Reddit AMA, and I asked him a question about what song he thought showcased Robin's voice the best. His answer was "And the Sun Will Shine". "Heart Like Mine" is my favorite of his.
Your daughters eyes and beauty captures my heart ❤
I mean I watched this twice because of it..I realise she's married haha but she's an experience!
My all time favourite song!
Best Reaction Ever Ladies
This is definitely one of the best song they wrote for all the reasons you said. I like romantic ballads with R&B sounds and so How deep is your love or Too much heaven are tied. Beautiful ladies can you react to the first song, you (daughter) probably will feel in your soul too! You may like Nights of broadway (live version) Thank you for your great reactions :)
Great reaction, still 100's more to go! You have only scratched the surface! Love you Guys, Thank You!!
Maurice was doing the beautiful harmonizing with Robin when he first starts his part each time 😊
Ur at the top table with the brillant beegees ❤❤❤❤
I still remember hearing it for the first time in 1993, and yeah - it was beautiful on the equally fine Size Isn't Everything CD, and still is. And hey, it peaked at no. 4 on the UK Singles Chart! ))
I think the 90s is such an underrated time-frame in the Bee Gees musical careers. While not dominating the music charts the way they did in the 70s, they really recorded some great songs in the 90s that are definitely worth exploring and re-visiting. For Whom The Bell Tolls is one of them. Another favorite 90s Bee Gees song that I'd love to see you do a reaction for is "Alone". That came out in 1997 and was one of their last hits. Also, if you want to watch a spectacular Bee Gees concert, check out their One Night Only concert from Las Vegas on 1997. The full concert is in youtube.
I will definitely watch the concert. So far I am totally in love with their 90s songs. We have a video for Alone and that was a winner too!
Hi im not sure if you had watched Maurice Gibb Solo such as " Man in the Middle " .
Also try listen to Bee Gees ' Alone" and " love so right "
Bee Gees is my all time favorite music artist.
Thanks Generation Gap both ( Mom and Daughter )
guys your reaction here was really beautiful, what another great song!! one of my favourite robin vocals for sure! i can’t wait to see more bee gees from you guys! for some more robin power please react to Nights On Broadway (the song where barry actually discovered his falsetto!) and of course the gorgeous Massachusetts!
Thank you! We will definitely include those songs. Love Robin a lot!
bee gees secret love
You have a new subscriber! I'm loving your Bee Gees reactions, as I am a mom probably close to "mom's" age 😊. I love Robin's voice the most too. Early on in the mid-late 60's Robin sang lead more often and he has the highest natural voice. I have heard that the record label pushed for Barry to sing more lead vocals because women would find him more attractive! Shame on them! Please do Massachusetts next! Also, would you consider reacting to Pink's music? She's my all time favorite artist and I think you would enjoy some of her most recent music from her 2019 album Hurts 2B Human.
Hello J, thank you for your kind words. Massachusetts is on our list of beautiful Bee Gees song. Stay tuned for more Bee Gees this week. Also, Pink would be a great choice too. Thank you for the suggestions! 😃
I'm not crying your crying. You should react to "Alone" to hear more of Robin's beautiful voice. Bee Gees stand for the letters B. G., the brothers Gibb.
👏👏👌
This is one of my favorites. I could listen to it over and over and over
Same Carolyn! I'm sure I have the whole song memorized now. I absolutely love it
Steelheart - never let you go , is a sort of power ballad in the early 90s it's a really powerful and cool song think I was 19 when that came out maybe around 1991!
Thanks for the great reactions! Such talent!! If you want to hear a great song that features Robin's beautiful and haunting voice, be sure to try "I Can't See Nobody", specifically the 1973 Midnight Special version is the best, but all the versions are great. And/or "Massachusetts" (the all for one tour live, is the best version). These guys are just so great, sometimes it's hard to believe! Probably the most talented singers/songwriters of the 20th century, and into the 21st.
This is one of my favorites too! The vocals are incredible and the twin towers in the background really get my emotions .
Love this song...
This song was to do with their younger brother Andy went into deep depression and died young after being devastated when he lost his love Victoria Principal.
