I love both your reactions but I think your daughter’s reactions are delightful. I love to see when someone appreciates their music. They have five decades of fantastic, wonderful music to appreciate.
I remember hearing Barry in an interview. He said he would get frustrated when people would call them a disco group. Because they are so much more than that. I mean they started singing in 1958 and through the 60s the 70s the 80s and 90s and even into the early 2000s before Maurice passed away in 2003. I think some of their best music was in the 60s. If you look at a lot of their songs I bet you will adore them just like you loved this one. Great reaction. Sorry I’m so long-winded.
I am almost 65 and have been listening to them for over 50 years. I always loved them. Every genre they tackled was done perfectly. Barry Gibb has one of the most distinctive voices ever. Robin also. I am loving watching you and your daughter react to them. I always love to see younger people appreciate this music. One of my favourite Bee Gees songs. Many artists have covered it but you should check out Keith Urban's live performance of it at a Bee Gees tribute with Barry and family in the audience. Michael Bolton also did a great cover of this song.
Barry looks so much like Andy in this video. 😍. They are so amazing, to go from this video to Alone and see how they’ve had to change some with the times to stay relevant, yet never lost who they were.
To Love Somebody was on the Bee Gees third album titled, "Bee Gees First? " The album was called that because it was theie 1st international selling album Their 1st rwo were only sold in the UK. Bee Gees 1st was released in July of 1967 and Otis Redding died in a small plane crash on December 10, 1967, It's actually a common misconception that the song was written specically for Redding.., so the Bee Gees recotded it themselves following Otis" death. Public records and dates don't back up that story. The Bee Gees recorded To Love Somebody 5 months before Otis Redding died. R.I.P. Otis Redding Maurice Gibb Robin Gibb and Andy Gibb. I'm ancient so I received Bee Gees 1st as a gift in 1967. Every song is AWESOME!!!!! :( They are all so missed! :(
The Bee Gees are the greatest singers and song writers of all time This is their 1st worldwide hit while they were all teenagers Thanks for sharing this amazing song
This has to be one of my all-time favorite songs! It was used very sweetly in the film "Melody", about two schoolmates who want to get married. The brothers' early stuff was pretty profound when you realize how young they were at the time.
These are their natural voices. And they are so talented vocally, as musicians, as songwriters. And unlike many they could change with the times and still be themselves. Have you listened to any of Barry's new album Greenfields?
The BeeGees are one of my favorite all time groups. When they performed in Madison, Wisconsin I got to be their driver. Something my wife was very jealous of.
Do you know why I love this group so much? Not only are their voice is perfection, but the emotion the raw emotion that they have on their faces and how they sing so expressively like their heart comes right out into every word of every song. Wow just wow😂
When asked in various interviews over the years about their favorite songs, Barry and Robin often said "To Love Somebody" was one of their most finely crafted. Who am I, but to agree. Later in 1967 Barry would turn 21 and the twins 18. Can you believe the soul at this age. 100's of performers have covered this magnificent piece, including Janis Joplin, Tom Jones, Michael Bolton. It is beautiful. The brothers are so much more than the era of "big falsetto" in the 70's. I happen to love what they did with falsetto, but here you can hear chest (and very young) voices.
so many great songs of theirs from late 60s. Massachusetts their 1st #1. Words, I Started A Joke, How Can You Mend A Broken Heart, My World. Mom lots of us here commenting are going to challenge you for #1 fan😁
I've love seeing the younger generations finding the Bee Gees and how AMAZING their music is.....Something the older generations already knew! The Bee Gees are the GREATEST group to EVER grace the music world!!!!
Hi girls - those were the beginnings of the BeeGees and the hippie era. I experienced those years consciously; in 1966 (just 15 years old) I lost my musical innocence in a large city in Germany. The BeeGees, the aforementioned Otis Redding, Pink Floyd, Marvin Gaye, and many more. Marvin Gaye and the MOTOWN label in particular influenced me. But I loved the BeeGees from the very first song. Yes, back then Barry still sang "normally", only later did he discover his falsetto voice. At the same time as the legendary disco hit "Saturday Night Fever"
I love love loooove the old Bee Gees songs. I have older siblings, so I heard them play the old songs and then I bought my own albums. Thanks for doing the Bee Gees.
Love the way you two love these guys. You will cry your eyes out when you see their live tribute to little brother Andy, Dont throw it all away. Oh, and when you hear Barrys The End of the Rainbow, the song he wrote and sang to Robin before Robin died in 2012. The song was not finished then, if I remember correctly. Barry put it on his 2016 In the Now album. Beautiful
Oh noooo I know I will absolutely sob at the tribute songs. My mom recently told me about their younger brother Andy.... I don't think I've hard The End of the Rainbow... I haven't recovered yet from the 2 Bee Gees songs mom picked today
followed listened to the BEE GEES all my life worn out many records, what you just seen was a snippet in what I call the Renaissance of music and movie..the BEE GEES were a big part of that, and this song is one of my favourites of theirs. I am just grateful to God to have lived through this time period. thanks for your priceless reaction to a masterpiece.
Get out of my rabbit hole I'm the only one allowed to love the bee gees. How dare you drag your daughter down here. I'm the only one allowed to be brought to tears by their heavenly voices. NO seriously grab a comfy chair come on down kick back and relax and enjoy the greatest singer songwriters to ever exist.come on and join the other billion or so who refuse to leave this rabbit hole.
Barry has said if there was one final song he could sing to his wife Linda, that this would be it🥰!! LOVE him & their love for each other😘! Also think almost all their songs have beautifully written lyrics....& the harmonies are unlike any other....EVER😉!!
Here again ladies, because of deep respect to both ofya, doin' such great reactions. I'd like to bring you into songs of them, which are to find on albums and not on singles. Why? Because of really art in music and so, so deeper meanings. Don't get me wrong, their mainstream-songs are brilliant at all, but there's such much more about them. Also, that's a chance to get into their different voices. Check'em out with 'Be Who You Are' and 'Bury Me Down By A River' (Barry), 'Really And Sincerely' and 'Black Diamond' (Robin), 'Trafalgar' and 'Walking On Air' (Maurice).
Many people might already know this but for those that don't, there is something very unique when members of the same family sing and harmonize together because they share the same genetics. Ths
That sibling harmony cannot be beat. So many family groups had that great sound that only comes from spending your first decades growing up with one another.
This TV-performance was done in Germany (1968, Beat Club). I'm livin' there and as a 14 year old boy exactly that song kinda electrified me at once. And it's priceless, lookin' into the eyes of your daughter, seeing the same thing happen again. Timeline-experiance. Barry once said, "Our songs are the stars, we bring them to the world like little babies, hoping they're doing well and my greatest wish is that our music will last". His wish came true and I'm sure, as long mankind will exist, it'll be(e) so!
It doesn't matter the time-frame. You can never go wrong with any Bee Gees songs. They're all great classics. I enjoy your choice of songs and reactions. I'm glad I found your channel today and subscribed. I think you're both terrific.
My favorite version ever ,such an incredibly beautiful song. One of the greatest songs in music history. They did a duet with Helen Reddy with this song and Helen hit it out of the. park. Would be a nice video to react to
Actually they started to write this song before they left Australia to conquer the world! They left here in January 1967 with two other Aussies, Vince Maloney on lead guitar and Colin Petersen on drums. The rest as they say is history!
So she’s seen Barry’s 1967 and 1978 looks. Please react to WORDS 1979 LIVE - Barry’s solo spotlight song, and I STARTED A JOKE 1979 Live - which is Robin’s. Both performances are perfect!!! ... and Mo is playing keyboards for both.
I hope Massachusetts, Holiday, Kilburn Towers, Run To Me, Words, and other great stuff from the early BGs era are in order. And there is no Bee Gees without How Deep Is Your Love (official video). Just Kidding. There'll always be Bee Gees, just love that song. We are in for such a great journey. Thank you so much, ladies! You are doing a great job keeping great music alive! God Speed!
I don't know about now but when I was in high school and college in the 60's, there was an explosion of music types, sounds, genres, styles, subjects and entertainers. It was a fabulous time for popular music. Many of the songs have become iconic and will probably be enjoyed another 50 years from now. I'll take the music from the 60's over the music today any day of the week.
I've liked the Bee Gees through all their years of recordings but I still prefer the pre-disco era overall. Looking forward to you two exploring them further.
I am 62 and I have followed the Bee Gees since I was 9.... Still today I play a Bee Gees CD in my car at least once a week! Remember they were around since 1958.....
hi guys love the reactions im a 66 year bee gees fan my first LP was Odessa back in the 70s so iv grown with them..i wonder if you would be so kind as to react to the bee gees song (TOKYO ) featuring robin gibb im sure you will LOVE IT..im now subscribed and hope fully i can watch your reactions..keep up the good reactions i love it rgds phil from the UK,,
Growing up, I knew the Bee Gees only from their disco stuff (which I detested). I discovered their earlier music later in life and absolutely love a lot of their early stuff. These guys could craft an incredible pop song. Right up there with Richard Carpenter.
Lots of covers of this beautiful song!! Barry so young and with no beard! Robin so young and such a beautiful voice! Mo with beads and beautiful harmonies and playing the piano! Late 1960s I think :-)
The Bee Gees- found their legs in Australia and became famous in Australia where they had immigrated to with their parents. They were just children when they first went on Australian TV, then went back to their mother country- the UK to capture a bigger market in 1967! You should listen to their first major Aussie hit "Spicks and Specks" and "Words" is also an early song that is simple but quite beautiful.
Watch some of the early 60s music and watch Robin’s face and watch how he always holds his hand up to his ear it’s like he just explodes with expression with each word.
I love both your reactions but I think your daughter’s reactions are delightful. I love to see when someone appreciates their music. They have five decades of fantastic, wonderful music to appreciate.
Thank you Angelina! We are working our way through all their amazing songs and loving it
To me the pre-disco Bee Gees were the best
Hi! Bee Gees - To Love Somebody. For me one of the greatest songs of all times! 💯
I think it just might be my favorite 🥰
Mine too and Barry was so handsome! Their harmonies are perfection.
Your so cute!
I've always preferred the pre Saturday Night Fever Bee Gees. THANK YOU FOR THIS!
Real music. Real musicians

Nina Simone does an incredible version of this song too.
How many bands or solo artists have sung songs in different voices and have hits
They changed through the decades to remain relevant more than any other group I know. Loved them then, and now and forever.
This group started in the 60s and are amazing all these years
This reaction was just beautiful. ❤
Thank you Amy 🥰 it was emotional
Barry looks so much like Andy in this video. 😍. They are so amazing, to go from this video to Alone and see how they’ve had to change some with the times to stay relevant, yet never lost who they were.
Mo really shows out on his part of this song! They all are so talented.
So great to see Mo get a well-deserved moment in the spotlight! He sounded amazing!

The Bee Gees are the greatest singers and song writers of all time
This is their 1st worldwide hit while they were all teenagers
Thanks for sharing this amazing song
I Smile at your reactions Ive loved them for 50+yrs
Definitely the best Bee Gees era
Very nice and emotional reaction you look bella, with a nice face, great to remember to the fabulous Bee Gees.
The sight of Mother re-living through the joy of the past alongside with Daughter discovering real great music - is priceless )))
Aw that was such a nice thing to say! Thank you
@@generationgapreacts You two stole my day! )))
Isn't that just a beautiful, inspired song? It says exactly what needs to be said.
This has to be one of my all-time favorite songs! It was used very sweetly in the film "Melody", about two schoolmates who want to get married. The brothers' early stuff was pretty profound when you realize how young they were at the time.

The BeeGees are one of my favorite all time groups. When they performed in Madison, Wisconsin I got to be their driver. Something my wife was very jealous of.
This was popular when I was in high school, and it had a special meaning with me then as I was going through a break up with a girl I was crazy about.
Love you reactions! This was pre falsetto. Barry stated this is his favorite song because he thinks of his wife when he sings it.
It’s funny seeing Maurice. I’m used to seeing more hair on his face than on his head. Here he has no beard & a head full of hair.
FYI. BARRY DID NOT START SINGING IN HIGH PITCH VOICE UNTIL LATER AND IT WAS AN ACCIDENT WHEN HE STARTED. MY FAVORITE GROUP OF ALL TIME
This is the very reason I watch reaction videos -- I get to feel the feeling (vicariously) of discovering amazing music all over again!
Do you know why I love this group so much? Not only are their voice is perfection, but the emotion the raw emotion that they have on their faces and how they sing so expressively like their heart comes right out into every word of every song. Wow just wow😂
I agree 100%, from the heart ☺️

You two have great reactions to great music. You have to do "I Cant Tell You Why" by the Eagles. Super song.
Love the Bee Gees. This song has been done by so many artist. The Bee Gees are the best. Barry was 20 and the twins were 17…Love your reaction!
Bee Gees singing this will always be my favorite! Brings me to tears with their amazing vocals
They always had soul.
From the Bee Gees album titled Bee Gees 1st, 1967
These guys sung together since childhood. They were never forced to do it, like so many other child groups. They just did it because they loved it.
Awesome reaction! Definitely a super performance from the Bee Gees. Good to see the young appreciate REAL talent.
followed listened to the BEE GEES all my life worn out many records, what you just seen was a snippet in what I call the Renaissance of music and movie..the BEE GEES were a big part of that, and this song is one of my favourites of theirs. I am just grateful to God to have lived through this time period. thanks for your priceless reaction to a masterpiece.
Awesome Reaction
Thank you again GSTE :)
One of the most covered song of all time. Thanks for this reaqction! 👍
This was my favourite sound from them hands down.
You both are very beautiful as the song's
You favor each other and are very beautiful
even in glorious black and white and mono sound it stil sounds and looks great
I heard this on the radio in 67, when I was 7 and became a lifelong fan. They were the best! ❤️. Mo really brought it! ❤️
Get out of my rabbit hole I'm the only one allowed to love the bee gees. How dare you drag your daughter down here. I'm the only one allowed to be brought to tears by their heavenly voices. NO seriously grab a comfy chair come on down kick back and relax and enjoy the greatest singer songwriters to ever exist.come on and join the other billion or so who refuse to leave this rabbit hole.
Yes. WOW is right. Once again...PERFECTION from the Bee Gees.
The early Bee Gees were the best. The disco era never grabbed me. Their early writing and performances were the best version of the group by far.
I totally understand both of your reactions! I love them too!❤️❤️❤️
Oh, you got to the early Bee Gees. You make me so happy! Thanks!
Barry has said if there was one final song he could sing to his wife Linda, that this would be it🥰!! LOVE him & their love for each other😘! Also think almost all their songs have beautifully written lyrics....& the harmonies are unlike any other....EVER😉!!
you both are so beautiful!
Hey mom,remember Bobby Goldsboro.Let daughter have a good cry.
Oh my goodness yes!
I've always found that their earlier music was some of their best work.
Here again ladies, because of deep respect to both ofya, doin' such great reactions. I'd like to bring you into songs of them, which are to find on albums and not on singles. Why? Because of really art in music and so, so deeper meanings. Don't get me wrong, their mainstream-songs are brilliant at all, but there's such much more about them.

Check'em out with 'Be Who You Are' and 'Bury Me Down By A River' (Barry), 'Really And Sincerely' and 'Black Diamond' (Robin), 'Trafalgar' and 'Walking On Air' (Maurice).
Agree!/ " Really and sincerely " ...the most spine_chilling song ever...it makes the soul tremble...❤Robin🙏🏿
I think this was the first Bee Gees
Song I fell in love with or Massachusetts can't remember which was first ❤️😎🥰✌️
Many people might already know this but for those that don't, there is something very unique when members of the same family sing and harmonize together because they share the same genetics. Ths
You just fell a little bit in love! Barry was 21 and the twins were only 18!
That sibling harmony cannot be beat. So many family groups had that great sound that only comes from spending your first decades growing up with one another.
Absolutely adore them always will ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Barry backing up his music. He has been married to the same woman for over 50 years.
Love your spontaneous and emotional reaction!! Please, continue. Okay, I'm requesting "Nights on Broadway" or "Jive Talkin.'" Thank you!
This TV-performance was done in Germany (1968, Beat Club). I'm livin' there and as a 14 year old boy exactly that song kinda electrified me at once.

That was beautifully put! Their songs are definitely stars and we are all still enjoying them and taking great care.
Beautiful ty
Apparently, I was five years old when this song came out now maybe I understand why it’s one of my all-time favorites❤😂🎉
You are both awesome and your taste in music also is awesome !!!
Oh this is wonderful, such a lovely review from you both 🌺🌼
bee gees i could not love you more
It doesn't matter the time-frame. You can never go wrong with any Bee Gees songs. They're all great classics. I enjoy your choice of songs and reactions. I'm glad I found your channel today and subscribed. I think you're both terrific.
Thank you Stephen, that means so much to us! So happy to hear you're enjoying the videos.
Love your reaction to this lovely song..... Genuine emotion and feelings to what is a work of art!
My favorite version ever ,such an incredibly beautiful song. One of the greatest songs in music history. They did a duet with Helen Reddy with this song and Helen hit it out of the. park. Would be a nice video to react to
I've just discovered your channel 7 loving how different generations can equally enjoy & appreciate such wonderful music !
Thanks Robert! Glad you are enjoying the videos :)
Actually they started to write this song before they left Australia to conquer the world! They left here in January 1967 with two other Aussies, Vince Maloney on lead guitar and Colin Petersen on drums. The rest as they say is history!

I started a joke coming this week or next. And I’d love to listen to Words
I hope Massachusetts, Holiday, Kilburn Towers, Run To Me, Words, and other great stuff from the early BGs era are in order. And there is no Bee Gees without How Deep Is Your Love (official video). Just Kidding. There'll always be Bee Gees, just love that song. We are in for such a great journey. Thank you so much, ladies! You are doing a great job keeping great music alive! God Speed!
Some of those songs are definitely coming soon! Maybe next week? :)
I particularly love Run to Me.
@@cindyknudson2715 Absolutely! Unique, unexcelled harmonies in the chorus!
Some of their great early songs were in my opinion sung much better when they were older, however i love the rawness of this one.
Yes definitely loved this one
Every time I watch this video, I'm just blown away by how much Barry looks and sounds like their youngest brother Andy Gibb
I can actually hear Otis Redding singing this in my mind and it is beautiful.
I don't know about now but when I was in high school and college in the 60's, there was an explosion of music types, sounds, genres, styles, subjects and entertainers. It was a fabulous time for popular music. Many of the songs have become iconic and will probably be enjoyed another 50 years from now. I'll take the music from the 60's over the music today any day of the week.
Maurice deserves so much credit for 3:35
Sorry ladies, I’m their #1 fan. I’m 76 and have loved them since the 60’s. ❤❤😂😂😂❤❤
I've liked the Bee Gees through all their years of recordings but I still prefer the pre-disco era overall. Looking forward to you two exploring them further.
I am 62 and I have followed the Bee Gees since I was 9.... Still today I play a Bee Gees CD in my car at least once a week! Remember they were around since 1958.....
NYmining, Spicks and Specks and this song are the very good old Bree Gees moments.
hi guys love the reactions im a 66 year bee gees fan my first LP was Odessa back in the 70s so iv grown with them..i wonder if you would be so kind as to react to the bee gees song (TOKYO ) featuring robin gibb im sure you will LOVE IT..im now subscribed and hope fully i can watch your reactions..keep up the good reactions i love it rgds phil from the UK,,
many don't realise Jackie De Shannon had a bigger hit with it than the BGs did
Growing up, I knew the Bee Gees only from their disco stuff (which I detested). I discovered their earlier music later in life and absolutely love a lot of their early stuff. These guys could craft an incredible pop song. Right up there with Richard Carpenter.
Lots of covers of this beautiful song!! Barry so young and with no beard! Robin so young and such a beautiful voice! Mo with beads and beautiful harmonies and playing the piano! Late 1960s I think :-)
I only liked the early beegees music like this one and others, thanks girls 😊😎
El mejor tema de ellos!
Hottest men on earth, always!!❤❤❤
Love mums reaction, straight away she was into it! The way it got the rest of us.
The Bee Gees- found their legs in Australia and became famous in Australia where they had immigrated to with their parents. They were just children when they first went on Australian TV, then went back to their mother country- the UK to capture a bigger market in 1967! You should listen to their first major Aussie hit "Spicks and Specks" and "Words" is also an early song that is simple but quite beautiful.
We have those on our list of songs ☺️ we will definitely get to them soon
Watch some of the early 60s music and watch Robin’s face and watch how he always holds his hand up to his ear it’s like he just explodes with expression with each word.
