This is Barry Gibb at his most gorgeous best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And that voice!!!!!!!!!!!!! How many women would love to run their fingers through that hair?
There definitely were other parts of Barry I (and millions of others) would've gladly offered in exchange for runny our fingers through. Sooooo HOT!!!! BUT.... ALONG CAME LINDA...HE SHOULD WRITE A SONG ENTITLED "ALONG CAME LINDA".
Hey - I admit to being absolutely smitten with Barry back in those days but I suspect your fingers wouldn't exactly run through that fabulous head of hair. I'll bet he used a whole can of Aqua Net to keep those locks in place!
@@serenade4739 haha - love it! But hey, there would be worse things than being stuck to Barry for the rest of your natural life because you couldn’t physically remove your fingers from his hair 😁🥰❤️❤️
I absolutely love the reactions this song has. Every time I have seen a reaction the streamer looks happy after the first note. This is brilliant music. Listen to other songs by the Bee Gees and other artists from the 70s and early 80s. Barry the one in the middle, has been married to his wife for 50 years. So although they looked like they would be spreading their love around, they didn't. They were as loyal to their partners as they were capable to sing without gadgets and gizmos.
I'm not ashamed to say that I'm one of those grown men who sheds a few tears to this, as well as a couple of other songs of theirs. The Bee Gee's are my third favourite group of all time, and I'm not ashamed to say that either
3 brothers who write the music, write those lyrics which are poetry, do the arrangements, play the instruments, sing their own songs with their incredible harmonies, give great concerts and look good. They have been singing together since the late 1950s and recording since the late 60s. Those are their natural voices and harmonies. No auto tune. God-given pure talent. No formal training, self-taught with instruments and when they started they couldn't even read music. Barry hit High C in this song which is incredibly hard for an un-trained male voice. They have also written songs for a variety of big artists.
Barry didn't know he could sing falsetto until the producer on the song Nights On Broadway wanted a high pitch scream at the end of the song. History was made.
Let me share a secret with you.....you tear up....cause it's more beautiful than anything you have ever witnessed. Don't feel bad.....they give me the chills when I hear them. Michael Jackson CRIED the first time he heard them!!!!!!! They became good friends.
Barry Gibb has a 5 octive range of his voice and is an amazing artist and his falsetto voice is still the best voice in the world.. Robin and Maurice were right there with the talent also
Yeah Robin and Maurice, the twin bros on the left and right of Barry loved his falsetto so they pushed him to do it as much as possible and the results speak for themselves....They' d been singing together since they were in single digits...so unique harmonies have a tendency come from all that time singin together...they layered it many times in the studio to get the choir effect......R.I.P Robin and Maurice...also the baby brother Andy who was a popular singer in his own right and passed away in his 30s from heart failure...Barry is still with us....This song came out when I was 15...and I'm 56 now....and it still moves me to tears....they gave all the publishing profits from this song to UNICEF charity for children back in 79.....I could go on..lol.....What incredible talents and men!
It's like they invented harmony. Live band, no auto tune, no computerized voice enhancement and one mic for all three of them. Back then (1979). singing was just pure, raw talent. By the date of this recording, the BeeGees had already been singing together professionally for 21 years when Barry was 12 years old and the twins were just 9. All of the Gibb brothers including little brother, Andy, could sing in that amazing falsetto voice. But Barry was the master. He was able to exorcise more control over it. The Gibbs were, in my opinion, the most multi-talented families in music history. They wrote their own songs as well as writing songs for many other musical greats.This song was included on a compilation album to benefit UNICEF. There were many artists who recorded songs on the album, but the BeeGees gave all the royalties from this song in any form. In, at that time, an unprecedented move, they also gave UNICEF the publishing rights to Too Much Heaven. To date, Too Much Heaven has raised over 11 million dollars for UNICEF. In 1967, they wrote a song called To Love Somebody which appeared on their third album titled BeeGees 1st, but their first internationally, as the first two albums were only released in Australia. BeeGees 1st was released in July '67. Otis Redding was set to record To Love Somebody on his next album. Sadly, Otis was killed in a plane crash, Dec 10,1967. I thought for the longest time that they didn't record it themselves until after the death of Otis Redding. Their brother Andy Gibb had a very successful solo career as well until his death on March 10,1988. Just 5 days after turning 30. Andy had developed myocarditis, inflammation of the heart, which was brought on by a viral infection While most people recover from myocarditis, Andy's body was unable to fight the infection due to his history of drug use. Soo sad! The 1st time I heard this song, I was 15 years old. I was sitting on the floor in our living room. They sang with so much emotion that I had tears running down my face. It didn't hurt that before this I found out that Barry and I shared the same birthday, me in 1963 and him in 1946. While I was crying, my daddy came in and told me to knock it off or he'd change the channel. He was mean.
Their Dad was mean too according to Barry. He said that their Dad would hit them. Mine was mean as well; he used to say "All dogs go to hell" in place of "All dogs go to heaven."
@@andreaharris7397 What interview did Barry say those things about their dad? I know in one interview he said his dad was a very dogmatic man and an angry man but I've never heard him say the things your talking about.
@kudabear4898 I read an article where he was talking about hanging with Michael Jackson and comparing his dad with Michael's. He said that his dad would strike them, but in no way compared to MJ's dad.
I think the worst of the history of the BeeGees was that as the oldest, Barry was sure he'd be the first to die later in life...only to find that he was the last to survive. Can you imagine not just outliving your younger siblings, but having them ALL die much younger than they ever should have, and living for years afterward alone, after having been together so long... The interviews with Barry about his family are heartbreaking...
It was on Amazon ... sold out! But I couldn't understand how folks were selling it one month after it had been released. What do they do, buy a lot, then put on Amazon, at a higher price?
You got my vote for the Award for Best Male YT Reaction to Bee Gees Too Much Heaven. Authentic candor, proves you not only hear the music but you genuinely listen to it and feel the lyrics and the message the artists are conveying. Can't thank you enough for sharing this reaction, best of luck going forward.
Bro! When it first dropped in 1978, it had the same effect it is having in 2024. Blues, Country, Rock, Gospel, Soul/R&B, there weren't many radio stations this song didn't play on. It was and is the most beautiful song I had ever heard. I was only 13 when it came out. And it rivaled everything that came out that year. It's getting its resurrected release in 2024!!
Just for the record.... when these 3 men were singing & traveling the world, none of the 3 men ever cheated on their wives! And they all 3 were married! Think of that! That's 3 GOOD MEN there!!
Unless you're made of wood, this song will make anyone feel tears welling up because it's a prayer from the deepest part of our hearts. I quote a movie, Auntie Mame: "Life is a banquet, but most poor suckers are starving to death." Who in your life has ever asked you, "Are you getting enough love, Hap3speakz? Are you getting enough heavenly joy?" No. I didn't think so, sadly. The BeeGees gently put these questions to all of us. We are starving for love and heaven and we need to make more of it here on earth. We need our banquet.
...and to show how classy these Brothers Gibb (BGs) were, they donated all profits from this '79 song to UNICEF, a underprivileged children's charity, where this song reached #1 in 11 countries, including the USA. Amen.
They had a different sound, hits in the 60s, 70s, eighties and 90s. You can't pigeon holes these brothers. They can do it all and they did. Barry has the deepest voice, he can go deep, soft and of course how famous head voice. They all can and again they have on different songs.
The Brothers Gibb wrote all their music.....their song catalog has over 2000 songs in it.....some finished and record, some finished and not recorded and released and some just in bits and pieces.....they NEVER recorded any song until it was perfect. It will take you years to go through their full song catalog. Have fun.....you won't be disappointed!!!!
Sir Barry Gibb (the heart throb in the middle...) has been happily married to his wife Linda for over 50 years... The brothers donated this song to UNICEF - every penny goes to helping children in need. Three humble and extremely talented brothers that became true Legends during their own lifetime...💖💖💖 (All five siblings - Leslie [big sister...], Barry, twins Robin & Maurice and Andy [baby brother...] are/were born with the gift of music...)
LOVE YOUR REACTION. I myself was brought to tears multiple times the first few times I heard them sing this song! Will be checking out more of your BeeGees reactions ( they wrote & sang so many good songs!)
This song makes me wanna cry every time. I dont know what it is. They have a spiritual vibe about them. They really loved what they were doing and it shows.
I suggested BeeGees in so many comments so glad you guys took a chance not because of my comment but what ever reason Andy Gibb went on his own His voice is just un real there will never be such Great voices There was no technology to help u out they are so over looked in this voice shows.
Heyup Haps, there were 4 brothers. Andy who died young in 1988 (although not part of the Bee Gees), Maurice who died in 2003, Robin who died in 2012, leaving Barry as the only surviving member of the group.................He's still got it: th-cam.com/video/fr6xz34CLyI/w-d-xo.html
Huge in 60’s 70’s 80’s. And so on. They wrote for many others as well as their own. They only did Disco for movie. Saturday night fever. Listen to I started a Joke.
They donated the royalties and publishing rights to the children of the world through Unicef. Millions of dollars. You should try Immortality Barry said this was his favorite this week in an interview for his new album. Celine Dion singing with them. That was 1997. They were all great married men and fathers. Barry just married 50 years. The sixties stuff. It's amazing how many sounds they have had.
Phenomenal talented brothers. Lots of practice. Singing and writing sons since the twins were 9 and Barry in the middle was 12.. there also was Andy Gibb who died right after his 30th birthday and that took the piss out of them for a bit. The twins are gone now also which leaves Barry going it alone. He has a older sister. So after the American Country Western community opened their arms up to him and helped him back on his feet. Gave him confidence and affection. He now tours with his sons and sings with his nieces and nephews and is enjoying a new life. Just earned a number one record in his middle 70s. You’ve got some catching up to do. Side note. This song earned them millions and they donated it to UNICEF. They were awesome.
I'm a little late to the party!! It's New Years Eve of 2022. The Bee Gees music 🎶🎶 will stand the test of time. I lived through that whole " Death of Disco " thing and it was horrible . Going to a Disco and dancing to the music of the BeeGees, Donna Summer etc. was great fun.
One of my favorite songs by the B.G's. The falsetto voices Barry said they got admiring a group called the Stylistics and other Black groups back in the day. Those groups only had one falsetto singer, the BeeGees took it up to another level, with all three singing falsetto. Ah yes, Barry was definitely some eye candy. He will be 75yrs old this year.
I really appreciate your genuine reaction to this song. I love when the younger generation can appreciate the music from my generation. You made my day. ❤❤❤❤
The Brothers Gibb ...... Professionally known as 'The Bee Gees.' I was married a year before this song was released. The song would had been our wedding song, even if hubby said no. They wrote ALL of their songs! Born on the Isle of Man to English parents, the Gibb brothers lived in England, then moved to Australia. (1) Maurice (on the right-short hair ) While on his way to surgery for his intestines, he had a heart attack, yet the doctors operated anyway. (I heard Barry say this on a video.) He was in the hospital for only 2 days! Maurice (pronounced Morris) passed in 2003. I feel he should had been the lead on at least one song on every album. Beautiful voice. (2) Robin (on the left-long hair) passed in 2012 from cancer. He and Barry complimented each other with their voices. To me, he was the comedian of the group. Robin and Maurice were fraternal twins. (3) Andy, (not pictured) the youngest brother had his own successful career. He passed in 1988, at the age of 30, from inflammation of the muscles around his heart. He and Barry could had passed as twins, even though he was 12 yrs younger than Barry. The 3 brothers were also married and had children. (4) Barry (in the middle) said, "I am the last man standing." Barry is the eldest of the brothers. On September 1, 2021, he and his wife, Linda will celebrate their 51st wedding anniversary, which is also Barry's 75th birthday. They have 5 adult children, and 7 grandchildren. The Bee Gees have sold over 220 million records worldwide (probably more by now.) They were also writers for other musical artists. On a side note, their sister, Lesley is the first born. She was 76, January, 2021. She lives a quiet life with her family. If you haven't yet, listen to: How Deep Is Your Love ----- Staying Alive --- You Win Again --- Emotion (a song written for Samantha Sang)
Thanks Hap for your very real response/reaction! I'm 59 and love the Bee Gees, very much! It warms my heart to see the younger people appreciating the talent from that era. I like to watch many reaction video channels, but only have subscribed to a few and yours is one of them. I love your heart felt response, analysis and attention to detail. Did I miss it or is there any chance you would react to some Boston? Love you brother!
This video is from a live UNICEF Concert: A Gift of Song was a benefit concert of popular music held in the United Nations General Assembly in New York City on January 9, 1979. It was intended to raise money for UNICEF world hunger programs and to mark the beginning of the International Year of the Child. What you hear here is just their voices, not electronic manipulation.
First of all I have to say you’re a looker and your voice is very nice. But I need to say this song is a masterpiece in all areas. The instruments, the voices, the lyrics, the harmonizing. And they all look so good. Barry sexy as they come. Maurice he looks amazing. I’m in love with these guys all three of them including their little brother Andy. rest in peace.😞
The Bee Gees are one of my favorites. See I do listen to more than just QUEEN. Glad you picked this song because to me its their most harmonizing song that they have. I just love these guys they remind me of my teenage years when they were on top of the world. Barry Gibb is the lead singer and I still have such a crush on him. Thank you for checking out the BEE GEES. Take care my friend. Your girl, QUEEN BEE.
I had a complete crush on Barry also. Their early songs are so good. Didn't surprise me that they created exceptional music for the SNF movie soundtrack.
Debbie Bush - I grew up with the Bee Gees and the first song I heard by them was in 1967 with Robin singing lead and it was HIS voice that made me a fan far before the falsetto and "disco" era. It was Robin's unique and distinctive voice and amazing range that critics called the best white soul voice of his generation. Even Barry said Robin's voice was "killer". I always preferred his voice, humor and eccentric personality and he actually sang lead on many of the 60's songs when they first gained fame so it is wrong to say Barry was the "lead singer". If you listen to any concerts from the 60's or early 70's, Robin sang the lead about 50% of the time and also sang lead on most of their early songs like "Massachusetts", "I started a joke", "My World", "Really and Sincerely", "I can't see nobody", "Close another door" and co lead on "1941 NY Mining disaster" and others. He also wrote some of their biggest 60's hits although credited to all three. Some of his 80's solo work like "Boys do fall in love", "Like a fool" and "Juliet" were big hits everywhere except the US where the Bee Gees were blackballed by DJ's due to the stupid and unfair SNF backlash. I like them all and, no disrespect to Barry, but poor Robin always gets the shaft because Barry was "pretty" and did the falsetto on the Saturday Night Fever songs which were more familiar to newer fans. All three did amazing falsetto, especially Maurice. I liked their 60's and early 70's stuff. Maurice got almost no credit and he was an amazing singer, arranger and the best musician of the three. The Bee Gees were THREE and together were amazing. Just gotta' stick up for my boy Rob.
The Saturday Night Fever Days, I remember them well! ;-) Excellent soundtrack. I think my top two favorite Bee Gees songs are To Love Somebody and I Started A Joke, which date back to the 60s, pre disco era. But then again, Lonely Nights, Jive Talkin' and How Can You Mend a Broken hard are great also..... to many to choose from! Excellent song writers and they have the type of harmony only brothers can achieve. Saw them in concert at Dodger Stadium in 1979 and they were awesome live. Thanks, Hap! This was fun.
Bee gees are absolute best!!!! There are so many songs you can go after they're beautiful written by these beautiful Brothers. Amazing amazing talent.my teen idols back in the day and they are still my favorite group. Bee gees will live on forever
THE BEE GEES SO TALENTED! AND THEIR VOICES SO PERFECTLY IN SINK WITH EACH OTHER. AWESOME. TO MUCH HEAVEN IS A BEAUTIFUL SONG. IT'S IS VERY EMOTIONAL . LOVE IT.!! YOUR REACTION HAP LIKE NO OTHER!🥰❤🎶
I've been listening to reactions to this song all morning and tears spring to my eyes every time. It's as if we were visited by celestial beings from another world. A moment of grace. Thank you.
Bee Gees are my second favorite group with Queen being number one! They have such wonderful voices. I really enjoyed this. thanks! Barry just has another #1 hit album! doesn't surprise me at all.

I was one
Hey - I admit to being absolutely smitten with Barry back in those days but I suspect your fingers wouldn't exactly run through that fabulous head of hair. I'll bet he used a whole can of Aqua Net to keep those locks in place!
@@serenade4739 haha - love it! But hey, there would be worse things than being stuck to Barry for the rest of your natural life because you couldn’t physically remove your fingers from his hair 😁🥰❤️❤️
Barry Gibb is one of the best looking men I have ever seen.
I absolutely love the reactions this song has. Every time I have seen a reaction the streamer looks happy after the first note.
This is brilliant music. Listen to other songs by the Bee Gees and other artists from the 70s and early 80s.
Barry the one in the middle, has been married to his wife for 50 years. So although they looked like they would be spreading their love around, they didn't. They were as loyal to their partners as they were capable to sing without gadgets and gizmos.
I’ve seen grown men cry listening to this song. Did you know that the BeeGees actually wrote all their music? They really are extraordinary.
I'm not ashamed to say that I'm one of those grown men who sheds a few tears to this, as well as a couple of other songs of theirs. The Bee Gee's are my third favourite group of all time, and I'm not ashamed to say that either
yep they did still love them...
YES! They are extraordinary ❤
It's like one person split in three. Perfectly in sync as one. Perfect love song. Beautiful performance from three adorable men.
3 brothers who write the music, write those lyrics which are poetry, do the arrangements, play the instruments, sing their own songs with their incredible harmonies, give great concerts and look good.

Barry Gibb has a 5 octive range of his voice and is an amazing artist and his falsetto voice is still the best voice in the world.. Robin and Maurice were right there with the talent also
Yeah Robin and Maurice, the twin bros on the left and right of Barry loved his falsetto so they pushed him to do it as much as possible and the results speak for themselves....They' d been singing together since they were in single digits...so unique harmonies have a tendency come from all that time singin together...they layered it many times in the studio to get the choir effect......R.I.P Robin and Maurice...also the baby brother Andy who was a popular singer in his own right and passed away in his 30s from heart failure...Barry is still with us....This song came out when I was 15...and I'm 56 now....and it still moves me to tears....they gave all the publishing profits from this song to UNICEF charity for children back in 79.....I could go on..lol.....What incredible talents and men!
Simply the most successful and prolific family band in human history. Brothers in harmony.
It's like they invented harmony. Live band, no auto tune, no computerized voice enhancement and one mic for all three of them. Back then (1979). singing was just pure, raw talent. By the date of this recording, the BeeGees had already been singing together professionally for 21 years when Barry was 12 years old and the twins were just 9. All of the Gibb brothers including little brother, Andy, could sing in that amazing falsetto voice. But Barry was the master. He was able to exorcise more control over it. The Gibbs were, in my opinion, the most multi-talented families in music history. They wrote their own songs as well as writing songs for many other musical greats.This song was included on a compilation album to benefit UNICEF. There were many artists who recorded songs on the album, but the BeeGees gave all the royalties from this song in any form. In, at that time, an unprecedented move, they also gave UNICEF the publishing rights to Too Much Heaven. To date, Too Much Heaven has raised over 11 million dollars for UNICEF. In 1967, they wrote a song called To Love Somebody which appeared on their third album titled BeeGees 1st, but their first internationally, as the first two albums were only released in Australia. BeeGees 1st was released in July '67. Otis Redding was set to record To Love Somebody on his next album. Sadly, Otis was killed in a plane crash, Dec 10,1967. I thought for the longest time that they didn't record it themselves until after the death of Otis Redding. Their brother Andy Gibb had a very successful solo career as well until his death on March 10,1988. Just 5 days after turning 30. Andy had developed myocarditis, inflammation of the heart, which was brought on by a viral infection While most people recover from myocarditis, Andy's body was unable to fight the infection due to his history of drug use. Soo sad!
The 1st time I heard this song, I was 15 years old. I was sitting on the floor in our living room. They sang with so much emotion that I had tears running down my face. It didn't hurt that before this I found out that Barry and I shared the same birthday, me in 1963 and him in 1946. While I was crying, my daddy came in and told me to knock it off or he'd change the channel. He was mean.
Their Dad was mean too according to Barry. He said that their Dad would hit them. Mine was mean as well; he used to say "All dogs go to hell" in place of "All dogs go to heaven."
@@andreaharris7397
What interview did Barry say those things about their dad? I know in one interview he said his dad was a very dogmatic man and an angry man but I've never heard him say the things your talking about.
@kudabear4898 I read an article where he was talking about hanging with Michael Jackson and comparing his dad with Michael's. He said that his dad would strike them, but in no way compared to MJ's dad.
They touched your soul and your heart. So beautiful! It's your heritage. Harmony for the world. Tks for these.
Wow, thank you!
I think the worst of the history of the BeeGees was that as the oldest, Barry was sure he'd be the first to die later in life...only to find that he was the last to survive. Can you imagine not just outliving your younger siblings, but having them ALL die much younger than they ever should have, and living for years afterward alone, after having been together so long...
The interviews with Barry about his family are heartbreaking...
Too bad its not the 70's anymore! Best music, best everything! Love your reaction💝
“Brothers singing together is like having an instrument nobody else can buy”. So true! A quote from the documentary.
Barry Gibb was singing this song to his wife in the audience. They’ve been married for 50 yrs.!
Barry Gibbs just had #1 hit in GB 40 years after Bee Gees last #1 hit
His album of duets GREENFIELDS is also #1 in Australia!
It was on Amazon ... sold out!
But I couldn't understand how folks were selling it one month after it had been released.
What do they do, buy a lot, then put on Amazon, at a higher price?
@@brendawilson8208 They untouchable & will never be forgotten!
I love how they put feelings out there that men sometimes struggle to express.
You really need to check out their whole story. I think you'd enjoy it

LOVE YOUR REACTION. I myself was brought to tears multiple times the first few times I heard them sing this song! Will be checking out more of your BeeGees reactions ( they wrote & sang so many good songs!)
Great, raw reaction to this beautiful song. Were truer words ever spoken?: nobody gets too much heaven, nobody gets too much love.
Believe me they have over 1,000 songs that they written but this is one of my top 3!
Gives me goosebumps. Every. Single. Time!!!!!!!
You know it's good when it brings a tear to your eyes
It's okay, I was tearing up too. Something ethereal and divine about this. They were a blessed gift to the world.
Barry is a baritone singing an amazing falsetto
Beautiful....thank you for reviewing
This song makes me wanna cry every time. I dont know what it is. They have a spiritual vibe about them. They really loved what they were doing and it shows.
How Deep is your love and Fanny be tender with my love, Jive Talking, the list is pretty endless. Great review.
Barry's natural singing voice is baritone. They switched to falsetto in the late 70's during the disco craze.
I suggested BeeGees in so many comments so glad you guys took a chance not because of my comment but what ever reason Andy Gibb went on his own His voice is just un real there will never be such Great voices There was no technology to help u out they are so over looked in this voice shows.
You HAVE to listen to the BeeGees "You Win Again" from 1987, and "For Whom the Bell Tolls" from the 90's. You will NOT be disappointed!!
There's no one like them. They are perfect!
They grew up singing together from an early age. It was natural to them .
Cool video,great reaction, to a beautiful song by the fantastic bee gees
A lot of babies were made to this song ❤
Heyup Haps, there were 4 brothers. Andy who died young in 1988 (although not part of the Bee Gees), Maurice who died in 2003, Robin who died in 2012, leaving Barry as the only surviving member of the group.................He's still got it: th-cam.com/video/fr6xz34CLyI/w-d-xo.html
Beautiful reaction…I was blessed to grow up listening to The Bee Gees…I’m so glad you get to experience them, too
If you didn’t tear up, you wouldn’t be normal, it’s a very emotional song all the way. Nothing but beautiful.
Hi don’t know what happened to my -1st post but they will live on forever,
Beautiful music & voices ❤️❤️
He is singing in falsetto, the one in the middle. Gorgeous man! Prince also sings in falsetto with his hit "Kiss".
Huge in 60’s 70’s 80’s. And so on. They wrote for many others as well as their own. They only did Disco for movie. Saturday night fever. Listen to I started a Joke.
They donated the royalties and publishing rights to the children of the world through Unicef. Millions of dollars.
You should try Immortality Barry said this was his favorite this week in an interview for his new album. Celine Dion singing with them. That was 1997. They were all great married men and fathers. Barry just married 50 years. The sixties stuff. It's amazing how many sounds they have had.
Phenomenal talented brothers. Lots of practice. Singing and writing sons since the twins were 9 and Barry in the middle was 12.. there also was Andy Gibb who died right after his 30th birthday and that took the piss out of them for a bit. The twins are gone now also which leaves Barry going it alone. He has a older sister. So after the American Country Western community opened their arms up to him and helped him back on his feet. Gave him confidence and affection. He now tours with his sons and sings with his nieces and nephews and is enjoying a new life. Just earned a number one record in his middle 70s.
You’ve got some catching up to do. Side note. This song earned them millions and they donated it to UNICEF. They were awesome.
They have been singing together since Barry in the middle 9. And the twins robin & maurice 6
Love you insight.. can't even imagine being that talented 💖👍
Love love love love....there it is
ROBIN N MAURICE ARE JUST AS INCREDIBLE AS BARRY THEYRE ALL DIFFERENT
I'm a little late to the party!! It's New Years Eve of 2022. The Bee Gees music 🎶🎶 will stand the test of time. I lived through that whole " Death of Disco " thing and it was horrible . Going to a Disco and dancing to the music of the BeeGees, Donna Summer etc. was great fun.
I love your reactions mate! So real.
Sometimes their voice is just too beautiful for words! Amazing harmony!
Men should never be afraid to cry. It shows that they feel, and being able to feel is life.
Really enjoyed this! Thank you!
One of my favorite songs by the B.G's. The falsetto voices Barry said they got admiring a group called the Stylistics and other Black groups back in the day. Those groups only had one falsetto singer, the BeeGees took it up to another level, with all three singing falsetto.
Ah yes, Barry was definitely some eye candy. He will be 75yrs old this year.
dustee - Actually, I thought Robin was "adorkable".
Great reaction guy,👍💞 bee gees have so many more great songs many.😍😍😍
More to come!
I will be waiting for you sweetie 💞💞
I loved yout reacction..thansk from Spain
All the proceeds from this song were given to charity. These were humble charitable guys. Love them
No Auto-Tunes… just Talent. And what about those damn jeans.
I'm in tears too - let's face it 'nobody gets any love anymore':(
I really appreciate your genuine reaction to this song. I love when the younger generation can appreciate the music from my generation. You made my day. ❤❤❤❤
I love this!
The Brothers Gibb ...... Professionally known as 'The Bee Gees.' I was married a year before this song was released. The song would had been our wedding song, even if hubby said no.
They wrote ALL of their songs! Born on the Isle of Man to English parents, the Gibb brothers lived in England, then moved to Australia.
(1) Maurice (on the right-short hair ) While on his way to surgery for his intestines, he had a heart attack, yet the doctors operated anyway. (I heard Barry say this on a video.) He was in the hospital for only 2 days! Maurice (pronounced Morris) passed in 2003. I feel he should had been the lead on at least one song on every album. Beautiful voice.
(2) Robin (on the left-long hair) passed in 2012 from cancer. He and Barry complimented each other with their voices. To me, he was the comedian of the group. Robin and Maurice were fraternal twins.
(3) Andy, (not pictured) the youngest brother had his own successful career. He passed in 1988, at the age of 30, from inflammation of the muscles around his heart. He and Barry could had passed as twins, even though he was 12 yrs younger than Barry. The 3 brothers were also married and had children.
(4) Barry (in the middle) said, "I am the last man standing." Barry is the eldest of the brothers. On September 1, 2021, he and his wife, Linda will celebrate their 51st wedding anniversary, which is also Barry's 75th birthday. They have 5 adult children, and 7 grandchildren. The Bee Gees have sold over 220 million records worldwide (probably more by now.) They were also writers for other musical artists.
On a side note, their sister, Lesley is the first born. She was 76, January, 2021. She lives a quiet life with her family. If you haven't yet, listen to: How Deep Is Your Love ----- Staying Alive --- You Win Again --- Emotion (a song written for Samantha Sang)
Bee Gees hard to beat
Thanks Hap for your very real response/reaction! I'm 59 and love the Bee Gees, very much! It warms my heart to see the younger people appreciating the talent from that era. I like to watch many reaction video channels, but only have subscribed to a few and yours is one of them. I love your heart felt response, analysis and attention to detail. Did I miss it or is there any chance you would react to some Boston? Love you brother!
This video is from a live UNICEF Concert: A Gift of Song was a benefit concert of popular music held in the United Nations General Assembly in New York City on January 9, 1979. It was intended to raise money for UNICEF world hunger programs and to mark the beginning of the International Year of the Child.
What you hear here is just their voices, not electronic manipulation.
First of all I have to say you’re a looker and your voice is very nice. But I need to say this song is a masterpiece in all areas. The instruments, the voices, the lyrics, the harmonizing. And they all look so good. Barry sexy as they come. Maurice he looks amazing. I’m in love with these guys all three of them including their little brother Andy. rest in peace.😞
Love your reaction
They gave all the proceeds of this song to I believe UNICEF. Which makes this hit song even more special! Love it!👍♥️
Music that made you feel, that's why you teared up, music isn't like anymore. AWESOME REACTION!
if you don't like that you don't like music. Perfection!
Born on the Isle of Man, moved to Manchester, then to Australia....
The Bee Gees are one of my favorites. See I do listen to more than just QUEEN. Glad you picked this song because to me its their most harmonizing song that they have. I just love these guys they remind me of my teenage years when they were on top of the world. Barry Gibb is the lead singer and I still have such a crush on him. Thank you for checking out the BEE GEES. Take care my friend. Your girl, QUEEN BEE.
Same....
I had a complete crush on Barry also. Their early songs are so good. Didn't surprise me that they created exceptional music for the SNF movie soundtrack.
Debbie Bush - I grew up with the Bee Gees and the first song I heard by them was in 1967 with Robin singing lead and it was HIS voice that made me a fan far before the falsetto and "disco" era. It was Robin's unique and distinctive voice and amazing range that critics called the best white soul voice of his generation. Even Barry said Robin's voice was "killer". I always preferred his voice, humor and eccentric personality and he actually sang lead on many of the 60's songs when they first gained fame so it is wrong to say Barry was the "lead singer". If you listen to any concerts from the 60's or early 70's, Robin sang the lead about 50% of the time and also sang lead on most of their early songs like "Massachusetts", "I started a joke", "My World", "Really and Sincerely", "I can't see nobody", "Close another door" and co lead on "1941 NY Mining disaster" and others. He also wrote some of their biggest 60's hits although credited to all three. Some of his 80's solo work like "Boys do fall in love", "Like a fool" and "Juliet" were big hits everywhere except the US where the Bee Gees were blackballed by DJ's due to the stupid and unfair SNF backlash. I like them all and, no disrespect to Barry, but poor Robin always gets the shaft because Barry was "pretty" and did the falsetto on the Saturday Night Fever songs which were more familiar to newer fans. All three did amazing falsetto, especially Maurice. I liked their 60's and early 70's stuff. Maurice got almost no credit and he was an amazing singer, arranger and the best musician of the three. The Bee Gees were THREE and together were amazing. Just gotta' stick up for my boy Rob.
MASTERFUL!!!❤❤❤
first time to hear real music will bring tears to any soul............
❤ Your reaction was a joy to watch ❤
U got tht right smooooottthhh
The Saturday Night Fever Days, I remember them well! ;-) Excellent soundtrack. I think my top two favorite Bee Gees songs are To Love Somebody and I Started A Joke, which date back to the 60s, pre disco era. But then again, Lonely Nights, Jive Talkin' and How Can You Mend a Broken hard are great also..... to many to choose from! Excellent song writers and they have the type of harmony only brothers can achieve. Saw them in concert at Dodger Stadium in 1979 and they were awesome live. Thanks, Hap! This was fun.
That is rad you got to see them live! Damm....
Love the Classics
They were definitely a group that CANNOT be equalled! Singer/songwriters, what talent!
A hug for the soul. ❤️
Bee gees are absolute best!!!! There are so many songs you can go after they're beautiful written by these beautiful Brothers. Amazing amazing talent.my teen idols back in the day and they are still my favorite group. Bee gees will live on forever
The range of their voices are amazing. Disco was only a short period in their music history.
THE BEE GEES SO TALENTED! AND THEIR VOICES SO PERFECTLY IN SINK WITH EACH OTHER. AWESOME. TO MUCH HEAVEN IS A BEAUTIFUL SONG. IT'S IS VERY EMOTIONAL . LOVE IT.!! YOUR REACTION HAP LIKE NO OTHER!🥰❤🎶
I've been listening to reactions to this song all morning and tears spring to my eyes every time. It's as if we were visited by celestial beings from another world. A moment of grace. Thank you.
This is one of the most beautiful songs I’ve ever heard. Gives me chills every time
Bee Gees are my second favorite group with Queen being number one! They have such wonderful voices. I really enjoyed this. thanks! Barry just has another #1 hit album! doesn't surprise me at all.
Wow loved song his voice I got no words beautiful 🙏👌👌
