They are nothing short of angels 😇. The Brothers Gibb need no introduction....they are iconic legends. No one can compare
Before Autotune there was a thing called talent:) You have now been Bee Geed!
Can't compare Bee gees to any other group...They created a music world of utmost uniqueness. Awesome
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
💯% agree. The phenomenal Bee Gees.
Kinda true they popularized falsetto during the late 70s their such a unique singing group
Their my all time favorite group
OK, their harmony is just divine..💯💯💯💯😍😍😍
Well. Depende de la música..love Boney M..y Montserrat Caballeé
I believe this song was recorded in one take. I've been to close to a dozen of their concerts and they never failed to amaze me with their perfect harmonies. Perhaps the best vocal group ever existed, and am glad you found them. You are never too young to enjoy their music.
18 takes
But this from Wikipedia....
"The recording process was the longest of all the tracks on Spirits Having Flown as there are nine layers of three-part harmony, creating 27 voices, though the high falsetto voices are the most pronounced in the final mix:[6]
Barry on falsetto lead three times
falsetto high harmony three times
falsetto low harmony three times
Barry on natural voice lead three times
high harmony three times
low harmony three times
Barry, Robin and Maurice together on lead three times
high harmony three times
low harmony three times"
😮😅❤❤@@restherparsleymartin2200
I’m so thrilled that the younger generations love the awe-inspiring music of the 70’s. There were so many wonderful singers (true, pure singers) and groups. If this was your first Bee Gee’s song, buckle up baby cause you are in for a fantastic ride!
It’s a shame that the twins aren’t here to see how much they are loved after these years! I know some people made fun of them but I would put their beautiful voices, normal and falsetto, against anyone! I was in love with Andy as a younger girl but now as a 58 year old woman, the hot flashes that Barry is giving me is not menopause! Lord, that man is gorgeous!!❤❤❤
They're brothers, that's why they harmonize so perfectly.
And the fact that they started singing together when they were very young.
Brothers. And Maurice and Robin were twins.
Exactly and great ears....
Yes, like Emotions, DeBarges, Jacksons and other families...think siblings singing since young great at harmonizing
Their younger brother, Andy, sounded just like them as well!
Barry's hair has caused "hair envy" for decades. So nice to see people being introduced to the Bee Gees.
I agree😍
It doesn’t now I wish he would get it cut
@@lynnepashley4281 I like his hair It's all good☺❤Peace
I really envy his amazing voice too.
Melody Kubiak - Barry didn't have a lot of chest hair, another thing SOME ladies (not me) like because he was badly burned as a child and severely scarred. Robin had so much chest hair you could make a rug from it. Yuch. Otherwise I loved robin!
Your poor generation has been so starved for good music, real music, that when you hear it, it overwhelms you. What we took for granted back in the 70s it's like manna from heaven to this generation. I'm glad you had a chance to listen to the wonderful pop music that we had from back in the day
Brother! so right.
This was recorded live with orchestra. Not too many takes. No over dubs. Pure talent.
This is a "rabbit hole " you might find very hard to climb out of! They are a Super group that never cease to amaze!
Truth.
Dereck could easily fall into that rabbit hole if he dives deeply into this ENTIRE era's music - a great collection of incredible songs by incredible artists.
I fell into that rabbit hole as a 12 year old in 2006... none of the other kids got it
Exactly I never appreciated it when I was a kid and my parents played this all the time now I'm making up for lost time
Sorry Dave, but they're not a super group, though they are super and superb and every other superlative that can be used. A super group is made up members from other groups, like The Traveling Wilburys, and as far as I know the Bee Gees were never in separate groups at any stage. Just an FYI mate. Otherwise I totally agree.
The phenomenal Bee Gees. They'll never be another amazingly talented trio of singers, songwriters and brothers. 💜💜💜
The Bee Gees are THE BEST OF ALL TIME. NO ONE COMPARES.
All natural harmonies. BORN WITH. Never read music. Wrote everything they do.
And THIS SONG they gave all rights and sales too UNICEF, first group to do that also.
BEST EVER, and most caring sibling relationship. ❤💙
One of the most beautiful songs ever written and sung by one of the most fantastic groups ever. Pure Genius.
Esta joya me vuelve loca❤❤❤❤
Perfection as brothers. There will never be another group like the Bee Gees. Barry Gibb is still carrying on as a singer and producer.
Perfect Harmony. No one could match them. The harmony only a family can produce. Greatest group, greatest body of work, greatest sound of all time. A devoted fan!
Not only can he sing, he wrote most, if not all of their songs.
No takes, this is live. This was the sound of the 70's - 80's. Best years ever
Not live. 27 layered vocal tracks. It is their most complex vocal arrangement in fact. Sonic bliss, but they are lip synching to the recording.
Prepare to be blown out of the water when your hear Barry’s voice on Tragedy
By the time of this recording, they had been singing professionally for 20 years. Their music has spanned 6 decades. They also had a younger brother named Andy Gibb. Andy was a music sensation all his own. He was an amazing singer. But, he left us much too soon. He died in 1988. He was only 30 years old. I was a married 25 year old with a toddler when I heard that he died. But, I still cried like a baby. He had so much more music to give the world.
Andy Gibb sang with his brothers on stage in live version of the Bee Gees",You Should Be Dancing"
th-cam.com/video/xI68A-rntIk/w-d-xo.html
So many tracks have been added on the Vocal to get that harmony sound. It is Barry doing them. It is the same with Queen. Freddie adds so many harmony vocals to their tracks. Natural singers
You made a very true statement when you said it's all voice. This was pure talent, before auto tune..The proof is right there on the video. Just there voices with a live orchestra.
No auto tune. This is pure talent.
You will NEVER run out of material to love from this group. They have 5 decades on TOP of what they wrote for others. Just amazing songs, singers, songwriters, they own much of the soundtrack of my life! Loved them my whole life!
They wrote over 1000 songs. Two of their top hits were write on some afternoons.
Voices ... A gift from God!!! 🙏
1978 high school dance no fights, no drugs just great music and we danced well into the night,it followed us thru life we return to get some peace,
How do they harmonize like that? They're brothers. It's DNA
Robin ( with the long hair ) has a voice with a tremulo that is to die for, as they say. Unique, too.
How Deep Is Your Love, is probably one of the best songs ever written & recorded. All of the Gibb brothers were beyond talented.
To Much Heaven has literally saved children. The Bee Gee’s wrote & released it in 1978. It was already topping charts world wide when they performed it in Jan. 1979, for The United Nations Children's Fund fundraiser, “Music for UNICEF.” They then donated all royalties & publishing rights to UNICEF, the 1st band to make such a donation to charity. The last official tally I saw was as of 2011, saying UNICEF had received more than 10 million British pounds from it, for emergency food & healthcare. Elsewhere someone said it hit 20 million as of 2019 (but I haven’t found an official source for that).
WN Safford
Unfortunately UNICEF was found to have only gave a pittance to their charities. They kept the rest to give the c.e.o.s mansions and cars. The worst charity ever.
@@roymagnus827 Because I give to UNICEF, I wanted to research this. Thankfully, it appears claims of “worst charity” trace back to a debunked, 2005, anonymous email, that gets revised & recirculated. The 2017 version claimed UNICEF the worst offender 11 years in a row, with the CEO receiving 1.2 mil a year salary, a Royal Royce & an expense account rumored to be over $150K (UNICEF is in 190 countries, so actually has multiple CEO’s) It further claims “less than $0.14 per dollar” goes to the cause Every “fact checking” site I found, including Snopes & non-profit watchdogs, like CharityWatch & Charity Navigator, say those claims are false. Watchdog groups state the requirements to get on their “Good” lists, including what % gets to the cause (typically 75% or better), % for costs (salaries, fundraising, etc), as well as a charity’s willingness to open their records for review (including tax returns). CharityWatch gives UNICEF an“A” rating. Charity Navigator (& the 2009 Forbes “200 Largest U.S. Charities” report) gave UNICEF a positive efficiency of 91%. I do appreciate your post, as everyone should research before donating & I hadn’t done so before, so thank you for that.
WN Safford well. I'm glad I was wrong. And good that you donate.
What a waste. UNICEF. As much as a scam as the Red Cross.
Great, Great song..But giving your royalties to UNICEF ?? Deadly mistake !! ...Out of 1$ ,95 cents go to salaries for the CEOs !,, that’s just wrong !! I’m pretty sure they regret it until the very end .I don’t question their motives , sincere and honest ,but they gave those royalties to the wrong organization.
Im 65 yrs. old and I've never heard any group cover the BeeGees They were brothers and their voices were so similar that their harmonies were unable to be copied. Barry's falsettto is a thing of legend.
Barry ! ❤️❤️
This song was recorded live and in one take. The Brothers were already singing more then 20 years together. I grew up with then, hearing then as a child in the late 60's and 70's. Love them Always!! Truly gifted!!!
Maurice (the shorter bearded twin) was the genius behind the harmonies.
Robin’s vibrato was/is incomparable. ‘I started a joke’ and ‘Saved by the bell’ are must listen Robin tracks.
Yes! Thank you for saying it. Mo never gets enough credit.
@@sole.81 Exactly! Mo is also behind all the sick bass lines. Very underrated bass player in my opinion. You can really see him shine in Jive Talkin' . Absolutely looove these guys!!
Music aside, Mo has THE BEST speaking voice. I would have loved listening to him narrate an audiobook. Or something.
They're three brothers who have been singing together all of their lives, and two of them are twins.
Barry and twins, Robin and Maurice (pronounced Morris) 🙂
There will never be anyone like them again. Pure voices, no auto tune, just pure talent. I’m so thankful to have grown up with their music. They were just as awesome in concert. This is why our generation has such a hard time with music these days. We had THIS!
You’re hearing three brothers singing in perfect harmony.all three in falsetto with the exact same vibrato. Barry in the middle was14 and the twins around 10 when the formed in the fifties. It wasn’t hard for them except that it was Barry’s idea to do the song in falsetto. Barry did have a little more talent wise with producing their stuff and others and his writing. But the brothers were keyboardist and other instruments and the write and produced themselves none of them were slouches.
Dennis Caldwell other started when the twins were 5 and Barry was only 8 after listening to the Mills Bros. Musically all three were talented. Watch them perform acoustically on Michael Parkinson Show. Musical families can do this but they were exceptionally gifted. They also had a great sense of humour and were very humble.
You are mistaking a bit here.. Barry was 9 and the twins (Robin and Maurice) were 6 when they started singing together. This song has many vocal layers, not only falsetto but also their standard voices. Barry and Robin usually wrote the lyrics, while Maurice was the instrumentalist.
@@magg93 - Robin also had the most AMAZING vibrato and actually all three could sing falsetto (Fanny be tender, Too much heaven) but Barry had a longer sustain.
Pure talent. Glad to see a younger generation to listen to music when it was genuine and honest. Kudos!
They sing like angels. I'm sure their voices are ON LOAN FROM GOD.
I love to seek out the first time reaction to the Bee Gee's and especially to the Too Much Heaven song. Love to see the look on your face when Barry soars into that falsetto. Yes, this is baby making music. One guy said, "Don't let these guys anywhere near your girlfriends!" LOL Well that was a long time ago. Miss you Robin!
The legendary Brothers Gibb. Their falsetto harmonies and songs defined an Era! Iconic! 👏👏👏👏👏👏 ❤️❤️❤️
No gimmicks, no auto tune! Live! Just a microphone and incredible talent. 🔥🔥🔥🔥
In those days, men didn't think that falsetto was a manly style, but we had BeeGees albums. Ladies loved them.
They wrote it and the royalties were donated to UNICEF so far approx. £15 million. One take, no auto tune just amazingly talented.
Still after all these years, the most beautiful song I've ever heard. Perfect in every Way! Love the Bee Gees, always will ! ❤😚
Three angels. Love their voices. And the lyrics are so sweet.
One angel is still on ground level - Barry at 73 still has his vocal skills while Robin & Maurice plus their younger brother, Andy are Angels in Heaven watching over Barry and rest of the Gibb Family.
They were angels Andy sounded like Barry to sad he died so young all 4 had beautiful voices
In January 1979,UNICEF officially proclaimed the year as “The Year Of The Child”. That month,a concert was held at the UN building in NYC. The concert was broadcast live worldwide(NBC in the USA). The invited performers, including The Bee Gees,ABBA & Rod Stewart and others,each contributed a song for the cause. This was The Bee Gees contribution. All sales and airplay from the song go to UNICEF.
I wish the Bee Gees and ABBA could have collaborated on a song or album, that would have been epic
There is a special that is on youtube that aired in Australia with Abba, Olivia Newton John and Andy Gibb. I know it's not the same but its nice to watch.
Hahahaha, why do they have so many common fans?
I don’t know if the world could have handled that
That would have been Too Much Heaven!
I feel old realising not everyone has heard the Bee Gees before..lol.. even non Bee Gees fans would have heard them on the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack (now feeling even older realising the film came out in 1977!)
It's hard to imagine isn't it! I still remember them in their hey-day! My God! They were everywhere and so incredible. I still listen to the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack.
I'm 22 and I grew up with this kind of music. I'm from the Philippines and Filipinos just love older music so almost all of the younger generations know a lot of singers from the 60s onwards. Being here in the US, it's seems so different 😂 most younglings should listen to this more often.
And they have a whole catalogue of outstanding music prior to 1977.
-A whole lot of babies made to this music...just sayin'😁
They were the kings of falsetto. They had 5 of the top ten songs at one time.
the bee gees changed the face of music , they always try to make their songs reach the peak of perfection , to me they are the best music group ever , they have along everlasting ist of hits . they once had 5 hits in the American top 10 chart , they have an endless list of everlasting songs , please react to ( staying alive , the only love , you should be dancing , love you inside and out , paying the price of love , Dimensions , someone belonging to someone , the only love ) ( wish you were here , tragedy , for whom the bell tolls ) .
Add 'Rings around the moon', and the list is complete. Although, 'Shape of things to come' could be an awsome song to add to the list as well. 😀
Someone Belonging to Someone💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
If you wonder how many takes it took for them to harmonize perfectly, I can give you the answer. ! take. That is all they EVER need. If you dont believe that perfection is real, check out their live concerts and performances. Check out their acapella performances. PERFECTION! And they wrote ALL of their own music as well as huge hits for other artists.
Do “Fanny Be Tender” - SO many layers and the blend of Barry’s natural voice and falsettos are nuts. It gives me chills when I play it on my Bose speakers.
Yes!!! Spirits Having Flown is great too...
i've gotta get a message to you , Nights on broadway , Run to me , You win again
My all time favorite Bee Gees song. Love it!!!
I 2nd this one...Fanny be tender
@@stang7342 Fanny and Spirits are my favs
" SPIRITS HAVING FLOWN " is a wonderful song by them
Dereck you should start with some of their 60's songs to get how they evolved into the 70's sound, you won't be dissapointed.
You are absolutely right about the brilliant and beautiful voices, the perfect harmony, Barry's gorgeous hair, etc, but also know that the Bee Gees were lyricists and composers of ALL their music and some of the music for many other artists (and none of the Bee Gees could read music!). Truly a genius talent given by God! Also, from all of the interviews and documentaries I have seen, they were/are truly wonderful and kind men!
Amazing always, their brother Andy sounds just like them and had his own successful career
Knowing that they were consummate professionals, they probably went into that studio and knocked this masterpiece out in one take!
Not quite. This song has 27 overlaid tracks; Barry sang 18 of them solo and the other 9 were the 3 brothers together. Karl Richardson the producer if the album said Barry was at his zenith then. He was composing songs in real time at the mic and when he recorded the tracks for this one each of the 18 solos was so perfect and exactly like the others they had to “roughen” it up a bit in the studio as it sounded too perfect. Incredible.
They are the best..singers in their own right and harmonize so beautifully. 40 years i have love them. Listen to New York Mining Disaster. Before Saturday night fever , Barry sang in his natural voice..which also wonderful. They are awesome..brothers and their love for each other shines thru. BEEGees forever..
Love the Bee Gee brothers❤❤❤
Sadly, two of the three have passed away. Barry, the one in the middle, is the last Bee Gee left. There was another brother, Andy, the youngest brother of the four, passed in 1988.
Just imagine being one of those musicians playing this song while Robin, Barry and Maurice doing their thing.
Robin cool as a cucumber with hands on hips throughout!🥰
I know i'm an old men when i know someone, like you, discovering Bee Gees. This is then music band of my life
They're brothers and they had been doing it for a long time. Big impact on music.
No fake instrumentation like today like a lot of singers of today all instruments no fake voice this guys are super talented u heard it from a straight up Mexican
They were also the only singers to have 5 of their songs in the top ten at the same time. They sang three of the songs. The other two songs were sung by other artist, but it was still written by the BeeGees.
I just love how the you people react to this song . Most all of them weren’t even born yet. The Bee Gees had longevity that no other group had. Sing writing was unmatched by most also. They were the total package ❤️❤️❤️
What a fantastic introduction to The BeeGees. I'm so glad and feel you will become a fan.
That feathered silky 70's hair, you should check out their brother Andy! but they were so much more, amazing talents all of them, which makes me so sad that Barry is the only one still with us as i write this, they all could write and harmonize the hell out of their songs, LOVE them, all of their music. Don't let anyone mislead you into believing that their Disco years were not as great, their whole discography is amazing and i'm glad you finally got to react to them, and fall in love with their music, and Barry's hair ;)
They all had naturally curly hair that blow dries into a soft full look.
Because they are brothers that's why they harmonize perfectly
This song gets you in your heart ♥ love them all
I have watched yur to the Bee Gees and ABSOLUTELY watching yur excitement and smile. There will NEVER be another group as talented as these guys. Longevity.....50 yrs i think. Phenomenal
Notice the subtle, elegant syncopations from the instruments. I've been hearing this song since slow dances at the disco and couples-only skates at the roller rink. I get old, but good music never does.
I don't know how many takes it took to produce this video, but make no mistake, they could do this live just as well as this sounds.
There music was highly commercial polished in the studio, you have to love it. Live performances where often with a backingtrack like today's artist's.
Maurice's voice gave their harmony the depth. That is one reason Barry and Robin stopped after Maurice's depth. If you listen to them, after Maurice died, there was no comparison. Their voices were a gift from god. They are truly one of the greatest groups in history. Their harmonization and song writing has inspired musicians for the last 50 years, and will inspire bands for another 100 years.
Richard Sass - The Bee Gees died with Maurice and half of Robin died with his twin. He was a broken man after losing Mo.
Agree. Mo was just irreplaceable
I love what you said “gift from God” that sums it up perfectly! Their voices were truly the best in harmony
I believe it was 1 take. This song was for a UNICEF benefit fof kids. All the proceeds still go there. Brothers Gibb. Pure natural talent
If you notice, they were all stood back from the Mike. That way the clarity of their voices could be heard in full. No distortion at all.
I LOVE when young people can really listen and appreciate the music from my era. Thank you for your analysis and genuine appreciation of the Bee Gees. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
❤Barry'voice ❤🔝🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶💥💥💥💥
These three brothers have been performing from kids,so it's just so natural to them to harmonize so well.
Part of what I find that makes their singing together work so well, is how they pronounce their words. They all cut off the same words short, together, it's tight. They use the same vowel sounds, it's uniform, and they're doing this...with natural talent. There's no auto-tune. You go in the studio and you lay tracks. Over and over if it takes it. The instrumentation, it's supportive, as it should be in this song, because it's all about the voice. Front and center.
Brothers will do that
Great intonation, phrasing, breath control...
It's a beautiful song, takes me back to my childhood x
& me x
Very true
Bee Gees are THE BEST! All the noises you make are what makes you you. ❤🎶
thanks dereck for your reaction to the Bee Gees Too much Heaven wow fantastic !! Bee Gees music is great smooth music :)
These boys are above all. Very special. One of a kind.
If you want to hear Barry's lower-register voice, I recommend "How Deep Is Your Love" and "Jive Talkin' ," which were also No. 1 hits like "Too Much Heaven" was.
My favorite is his voice in “To Love Somebody” especially in the earlier part of their career-seems intense and strong. “But what good does it do?”
They wrote this song in one day and a recorded it with the orchestra. They did this whole video in one take. One.
We loved them. They can’t be forgotten. 💜
I was in high school when these guys were really popular. I saw them in 1978 during their Saturday night fever craze. Was a piece of heaven. I love how the brother on the left just stands there with his hands on his hips and sings like an angel!
Candle Lit Dining, Walks On The Beaches, The Park, Hot Bubble Baths When I listen to This Beautiful Song.
This was done in one take. Mind blowing
Glad to see you've finally fallen down the Bee Gees rabbit hole. There is no escape. Smooooooooother than the top of your morning latte.
Loved the BG s for more then 40 years,they are the best harmony voices👍👌
This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written and performed. Can't say enough about that. I have to say that your reaction was marvelous to watch, especially at 6:30 into your video. The look on your face was so joyful to watch as you heard this masterpiece. Thank you so much for a great reaction.
I've loved them since I was a kid in the 70s. I'm now 56 and still love them. Barry is the only one left.
They started harmonizing when they were about 6 and 3. Love them so much. From Barry s falsettos to the Harmony's, to Robins beautiful voice!
They are brothers, it can't be replicated!!!
They harmonize so well because they are brothers. The two on the outside twins.
Your reaction is sooooo much details.........from technical singing to hair. Loveit😍😍😍😍😍😍
Thanks enjoy ✌🏽
I grew up with the Bee Gees, & you have no idea how happy it makes me, to see the younger generation discover the music we fell in love with !!! Barry Gibb, in my opinion, has the best falsetto voice ever, & what makes it so incredible, is that in his falsetto, he also used his vibrato, which is very rare! Thank you so much for this, they were brothers, & Barry is the last one, but please review more of their music, you will not be disappointed, & they span over years, & crossed many genres 😍 I also believe, that
if there is music in Heaven, it would sound like the Bee Gee's ❤️❤️❤️
Every reaction to Bee Gees remarks on incredible harmonies. Remember they are brothers and 2 are twins. Brother and sister groups have always had the best harmonies.
I love your reaction Dereck seems the Bee Gee"s took you by surprise Mate.....
They were truly amazing their harmonies were unbelievable
