The BeeGees have been going for fifty years . I can not think of any other band that changed their music with the times like these guys .They still and forever will always be . Barry is still writing songs and singing .Unfortunately we lost four of the BeeGees to soon Rest In Peace.
They had hit after hit after hit and it was so much fun to dance to their music in the 70s. I feel so blessed to have grown up at that time. These guys were my all time favorite.
I think you would love watching the video where they showed the recording of this song! It’s amazing the things they had to do to get the sounds they wanted. It took 8 minutes to write the lyrics and one time singing the song to recording it! No rehearsal before recording the song, they just did it! These 3 brothers were born with a true gift!
The summer this was released I was 10; I had the 45 rpm of this and played it over and over and over - so much so that my parents refer to that as “The Summer of Tragedy” 😂 I still love it!
Oh wow, I was 10 in 1998 when the Steps cover came out and it was later in the year so summer was just starting (in New Zealand). As bee gees fans since the 60s, my parents redirected me to the original version they had on CD and I played it on repeat all that summer 😂. History repeats!
I guess we are same age! But I listened Tragedy not in 1979 when it was released, but bit later. I was mesmerized and did the same, listened again and again the whole Spirits album! All songs on that album just increadible, but Tragedy is just a gem!
Listening to the BeeGees got me through all my treatments for breast cancer was great to introduce the nurses taking care of me to the music of the Beegees, almost all are now Beegees fans.
It makes me happy to see anyone in your generation loving our music!! Some music transcends time because ITS JUST GOOD MUSIC!! Thanks, young man, for bridging the generation gap!❤️❤️❤️
Thing is I didnt fully appreciate them when I was young because we were into all the cool music at the time . But as I got older I realised just how incredible they were. Now I cant get enough!
I love tragedy . I agree with you wholeheartedly. I can be in the worst mood ever and I listen to Bee Gees music and it just changes my attitude and puts a smile on my face I don't know what it is it just hits me somewhere deep inside. I love the Bee Gees For something really different listen to words. It's barry's signature song.
GO ALL THE WAY back to 1968 to I'VE GOT TO GET A MESSAGE TO YOU and start there and I challenge you to find a song that does not evoke an emotion. YOU DON'T LISTEN to the BeeGees you feel them. I have felt them on the disco dance floor (yes I am that old) and watched my partner feel it too.
Born in the wrong era!!!! You need a time machine to transport you to the 70's!!! Magical time for music!!!💜🎵🎶🎼😊🤟 They made life bearable as a teenager!!!
Yep….& Andy’s Shadow Dancing!!! Barry said on Piers Morgan special in 2017 that they’d take “a pill”…..& were good to go for 8-10 hours(if you know what I mean🤔)!!
They wrote "Too Much Heaven" "Tragedy" and "Shadow Dancing" (for baby brother Andy) all in the same afternoon....The Bee Gees were POWER HOUSES when it came to writing, singing and producing.
I'm sitting here grinning from ear to ear watching your reactions to this group. Virtually every single song of there's is a classic across the globe. Glad you love their music so much.
There is a “Making of Tragedy” video showing The Bee Gees in studio and the process they go through when recording a song. It is a great inside look at the guys and their personalities. It would also be a great video for a reaction from you.
That’s a good video. Shows some of their humor and how Barry made the explosion sound was really funny. It also blows me away on how they finish writing the lyrics and just walk in and start singing the track. Hell, the music starts before Barry even gets into the studio!
You just made my day!!! I can't stop smiling. This song came out the year I graduated from high school. I remember the first time I heard it; I was driving home after school in my 1963 VW bug, windows down, big hair blowing in the wind and this premiered on the radio.... It stole my heart very first listen. It never gets old. Play on!!
I just love your reactions! You're so animated. So happy to see you've found my music. Have you heard " Fanny Be Tender?" Great song. The Bee Gees never made a bad song. Ever. Enjoy!
I imagine most Bee Gees fans can tell you that the "explosion" at 6:56 is Barry making the noise in the microphone. There's a cool video about the recording of this song.
burned out a couple of these guys tapes in the 90s when i and all my friends were huge metal heads in public, had no idea thats badass. EDIT i should say they were a guilt pleasure when i was at home.
My mom is a person of the Disco era and she shared with me all her music growing up so I know the Bee Gee's and all their songs. And this song is my most FAVORITE of theirs. :-D
Fanny be tender with my love def. Love your reviews and positivity. The Bee Gees have spoken to my soul for years. Lovely to see a young man discover all their great music.
Love this one, too. But then, the Bee Gees are MY favorite artists of all time. They were magic! I hope you'll listen to their song "Emotion." It was actually recorded first by Samantha Sang, but they wrote, and then later, recorded it, themselves. BEAUTIFUL! LOVED your reaction, Bro!
Three Musical Geniuses whose talents we got to enjoy for close to 50 years... They became true Legends - and their music will be played for generations to come... (If You haven't already, check out "New York Mining Disaster", "To Love Somebody", "Words", "Massachusetts" "Nights On Broadway", "One", "Wish You Were Here" and "For Whom The Bell Tolls".) These three brothers musically adapted to each passing decade - no other group will ever match these guys...💖💖💖
Young Sir, this whole album is a MASTERPIECE. Now I Know how you react, so I HIGHLY recommend reaching out, and satisfied. Both will tear you apart. GUARANTEED.
The beegees career spanned FIVE decades! I would love to see you react to some music from one of their other periods... Like "Spicks and Specks" which was recorded when they were teenagers! Or "To Love Somebody" written by Barry for Otis Redding who sadly didnt live to record it.... Or listen to "This is where I came in" recorded in 2001 not long before Morris' death. I could name maybe 50 songs that you NEED to hear. You need to hear Barry's non-falsetto voice. Or Robbin's soul piercing voice on "I cant see nobody" (midnight special version) OMG I adore how much you are enjoying their dance music but they are so SO much more. m.th-cam.com/video/CouKuIk_P0s/w-d-xo.html
Even though their music goes back a few years, great talent like this is timeless. It's as perfect today as it was when it first came out. I haven't seen anyone else recommend these two, but don't miss either of these songs: Love You Inside Out, and You Win Again. And so much more. Basically, like you said, ALL their songs are GREAT. The others below are also GREAT (How Can You Mend a Broken Heart, Fanny Be Tender, on and on and on). They were and are the best, most talented singers and song writers ever. And how many do you know who would donate the profits made by some of their songs to charity? Love your honest and fun reactions. Hope you'll do another Bee Gees reaction video soon. God bless you and all the good folks here!
At one point, 5 of their songs were in the top 10 music charts, and Barry had written 3 songs that were in the top 5. I enjoy the Bee Gees just as much today as I did when they were topping the charts. Talent overflowing.
Try "words" "to love somebody " paying the price of love" "fanny" "one " "love you inside out " "you win again " "I gotta get a message to you " "man in the middle " "this is where I came in " "how do you mend a broken heart " try some of these, there are sooooo many. Plus, Robin and Barry made solo albums.
@@juliefox1743 i think it was because it was their next step forward into or toward what was becoming popular at that time. So, not so many people expected it. It's part of what always made them great, they tried different things while still being true to themselves.
I agree. They were never confined by genre. I always said that if you took a recording of "this is where i came in" and brought it to a progressive/alternative type radio station at the time without the name beegees on it that the program manager would play the shit out of that song.
In December 1968 I made my first overseas trip, first stop was the island of Java in Indonesia. I was shocked/surprised when all the young people just wanted to know about the Bee Gees. As an Australian we knew all of their hits and loved them, but it was great to know that their fame had spread to other countries. Pretty soon they had conquered the world. Making a big comeback now in Covid-19 lockdown.
Barry's voice made that sound COOL...
HOW CAN YOU MEND A BROKEN HEART ???? incredible song
One of my favorite songs by them
Love all their music, but this is one of my favorites of their songs.
Again... their harmony was untouchable... love love love
The BeeGees have been going for fifty years . I can not think of any other band that changed their music with the times like these guys .They still and forever will always be . Barry is still writing songs and singing .Unfortunately we lost four of the BeeGees to soon Rest In Peace.
And they still sounded uniquely them
Lost 3 of the Bee Gees Barry's still alive!
They had hit after hit after hit and it was so much fun to dance to their music in the 70s. I feel so blessed to have grown up at that time. These guys were my all time favorite.
The BeeGees are exceptional; this is such an awesome song; their voices blend; they will never disappoint you
You are LOVING the Bee Gees! Its infectious
Bee gees are the best!!!
I think you would love watching the video where they showed the recording of this song! It’s amazing the things they had to do to get the sounds they wanted. It took 8 minutes to write the lyrics and one time singing the song to recording it! No rehearsal before recording the song, they just did it! These 3 brothers were born with a true gift!
The Bee Gees were very unique, they will never be another group like it.
Your reaction is just amazing👍👍👍👍🤩🤩🤩 The Bee Gees are unique, Kings of the Kings❤️❤️😍😍😍
From 75 on ...Nights on Broadway, Fannie be Tender with my Love, and Too much Heaven.
Lol late 50s actually
The summer this was released I was 10; I had the 45 rpm of this and played it over and over and over - so much so that my parents refer to that as “The Summer of Tragedy” 😂 I still love it!
Great story 😁
I LOVE it!!! 🤣🤣
I did the same🤣🤣🤣🤣such a wonderful band and wonderful guys❤️❤️❤️love them forever💕💕💕
Oh wow, I was 10 in 1998 when the Steps cover came out and it was later in the year so summer was just starting (in New Zealand). As bee gees fans since the 60s, my parents redirected me to the original version they had on CD and I played it on repeat all that summer 😂. History repeats!

Bee Gees “how can you mend a broken heart” ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Al Green = Definitive version :-)
Elvis Presley. Gospel Medley 68 special....
EoS
GOAT so many great songs who doesn’t like them no one
My all time favorite song from the Bee Gees!
Listening to the BeeGees got me through all my treatments for breast cancer was great to introduce the nurses taking care of me to the music of the Beegees, almost all are now Beegees fans.
Born in 1961. The Bee Gees were THE group of my teen years. Thrilled that you like them as much as I do!
It makes me happy to see anyone in your generation loving our music!! Some music transcends time because ITS JUST GOOD MUSIC!! Thanks, young man, for bridging the generation gap!❤️❤️❤️
Me too. 61 was a good year!
My dad was born the same year but never got into them. I learned to love them on my own but I was also influenced by my moms taste in music.
Me too!
Thing is I didnt fully appreciate them when I was young because we were into all the cool music at the time . But as I got older I realised just how incredible they were. Now I cant get enough!
They were, are and will always be a phenomenon 🎶
When something unfortunate happens when I'm with my friends, I start singing Tragedy . It's a good song and expresses whats happening.
I love tragedy . I agree with you wholeheartedly. I can be in the worst mood ever and I listen to Bee Gees music and it just changes my attitude and puts a smile on my face I don't know what it is it just hits me somewhere deep inside. I love the Bee Gees
For something really different listen to words. It's barry's signature song.
GO ALL THE WAY back to 1968 to I'VE GOT TO GET A MESSAGE TO YOU and start there and I challenge you to find a song that does not evoke an emotion. YOU DON'T LISTEN to the BeeGees you feel them. I have felt them on the disco dance floor (yes I am that old) and watched my partner feel it too.
AGREE....i did a separate comment as well.
Go back even further! - Blowing In The Wind (1963) - Bee Gees
You like Disco, I dare you to listen to Barry Manilow Copacabana.
Agree- also try New York Mining Disaster by the Brothers Gibb. Cool story on how this song was written by them.
@@fiddiehacked Where can I read about the story behind NY Mining Disaster?
"Nights on Broadway" NEXT PLEASE!!!!!
Link here: th-cam.com/video/bqlbFA0qOoA/w-d-xo.html
Yes, " NIGHTS ON BROADWAY" all the way!
Excellent suggestion.👍
YES!!
One of the best!!!!!
Heck yeah!!!
Born in the wrong era!!!! You need a time machine to transport you to the 70's!!! Magical time for music!!!💜🎵🎶🎼😊🤟 They made life bearable as a teenager!!!
FANNY BE TINDER WITH MY LOVE!!! One of their very, very best. I dare anyone to not like and be moved by this song Love the Bee Gees❤️🌹❤️🌹❤️🌹
I’m so happy you love the Bee Gees so much. ❤️
EDIT: I just learned that they wrote this and Too Much Heaven in the very same afternoon!!!
I believe you, but it's still hard to believe.
Too Much Heaven was released 42 years ago today 😊
AND a hit for Andy as well that day.
Yep….& Andy’s Shadow Dancing!!! Barry said on Piers Morgan special in 2017 that they’d take “a pill”…..& were good to go for 8-10 hours(if you know what I mean🤔)!!
They wrote "Too Much Heaven" "Tragedy" and "Shadow Dancing" (for baby brother Andy) all in the same afternoon....The Bee Gees were POWER HOUSES when it came to writing, singing and producing.

They spoke to EVERYBODY's soul!! 🤩
I was 5 when Saturday Night Fever came out and I became a big Bee Gees fan. THis was my favorite of their songs.
It is because they have the gift of music that converts music to magic. ❣️❣️
The BeeGees were a total masterpiece
Absolutely love your channel some more bee gees songs you wit love kiss of life wish you were here and the only love love your vibes x
There is a “Making of Tragedy” video showing The Bee Gees in studio and the process they go through when recording a song. It is a great inside look at the guys and their personalities. It would also be a great video for a reaction from you.
Definitely!
I absolutely love the 'Making of Tragedy', i have watched it loads, including just now again. They are so funny, talented and charismatic...
I loved this video too!
That’s a good video. Shows some of their humor and how Barry made the explosion sound was really funny. It also blows me away on how they finish writing the lyrics and just walk in and start singing the track. Hell, the music starts before Barry even gets into the studio!
I hear you...i luv them they are the best EVER😍
They're so good because they have music in their blood, extra good because siblings' voices are best together.
They are good because they are The Bee Gees! Nights on Broadway is another great song by them. 💕💕
My generation is pleased to hand down our music to younger ears.
Watching this reaction again. Just puts me in a great mood. Makes me want to move. And yepp. They ARE allergic to making bad music. Great insight
You just made my day!!! I can't stop smiling. This song came out the year I graduated from high school. I remember the first time I heard it; I was driving home after school in my 1963 VW bug, windows down, big hair blowing in the wind and this premiered on the radio.... It stole my heart very first listen. It never gets old. Play on!!
Love your soul - energy! God bless! Great reaction!
The BeeGees are exceptional; their voices all blend; the arrangement is amazng; BeeGees don't disappoint
I was raising 3 kids when the Bee Gees were popular, and their music could get me out of the baby blues immediately!!!
Like you said, "If it's a Bee Gee's song, you already know.." Have you reacted to "Jive Talkin'?" If not..it's a MUST!!!
Love the Bee Gees. One of my all time right there.
I agree once I started learning about them and their music i can't stop. They were very talented and could do anything.
I was obsessed with this song in my childhood, this is such a great song. Awesome band.
I just love your reactions! You're so animated. So happy to see you've found my music. Have you heard " Fanny Be Tender?" Great song. The Bee Gees never made a bad song. Ever. Enjoy!
"Love You Inside and Out" - Bee Gees
Fanny Be Tender With My Love, is another great one by the BeeGees
Thats my favorite from them
The b side was called 'Love be tender with my fanny'...
yes, definitely want to see his reaction, my eyes popped out of my head the first time I heard it reach the climax. Very beautifully presented song.
My favorite! Great choice!
Yep, awesome song.
They don’t know how to make a bad song. Pure Hit Makers!!!
I highly recommend “How Can You Mend A Broken Heart” by The Bee Gees. One of their big pre disco hits. So much emotion in that one
One of my favourites from when they were much younger 👍🏻 lovely song ♥️
Not disco💃🏼; it’s a ballad, But it’s still a wonderful song 🎶 .
I don’t know why it’s so fun to watch you dancing to these guys. You’re just stinkin CUTE about it!
Talented family. They write and sing and practically invented disco.
Loved your reaction!!!! If u get a chance react to bee gees song (You Should Be Dancing). Trust me it will be hard to sit down and do it.
I imagine most Bee Gees fans can tell you that the "explosion" at 6:56 is Barry making the noise in the microphone. There's a cool video about the recording of this song.
burned out a couple of these guys tapes in the 90s when i and all my friends were huge metal heads in public, had no idea thats badass.
EDIT i should say they were a guilt pleasure when i was at home.
I grew up when the Bee Gees were popular. This makes me feel so good that you love them!
Bee Gees!!!!!❤️👍💖💕
Ty for your reaction...luved it ..
My mom is a person of the Disco era and she shared with me all her music growing up so I know the Bee Gee's and all their songs. And this song is my most FAVORITE of theirs. :-D
JIVE TALKIN’!! it’s grooves!! 🎶👍🏼❤️
Wow! Great Bee Gees! Thanks for the amazing reaction!
You’re exactly right. They soothe your souls!!
Love this song 🔥 so glad my mom introduced me to so many artists but especially ones from the 70's. Such a good era.
Fanny be tender with my love def. Love your reviews and positivity. The Bee Gees have spoken to my soul for years. Lovely to see a young man discover all their great music.
Hahahaha! “They’re allergic to making bad music”. That was the best comment, and SO true!
This track is one of my favorites as well. I also like "Nights On Broadway."
Before starting the video I heard tragedy I said "he doesn't know what he is in for " amazing song top 10 for me. 3:17 😂😂😂😂
Barry has an Amazing voice
They were even better songwriters than performers. They had great vocals and harmonizing.
Sing it James...This was big in the skating rinks back in the day...Great for power skating with tricks...Awesome group of guys.
If you haven't already Emotion by the Bee Gees. You won't regret it.
Love this one, too. But then, the Bee Gees are MY favorite artists of all time. They were magic! I hope you'll listen to their song "Emotion." It was actually recorded first by Samantha Sang, but they wrote, and then later, recorded it, themselves. BEAUTIFUL! LOVED your reaction, Bro!

Songs I suggest by the Bee Gees (chronologically): To Love Somebody, Nights On Broadway, You Win Again, and Alone.
I absolutely LOVE this song!
danced to this a ton on the lighted dance floors, back in the day
My favorite Bee Gees song!

To Love Somebody. 💕 Many artists have covered it bc it’s AMAZING 🤩!!
I LOVE HOW YOU DESCRIBE THE BEEGEES, You get it 🥰
Barry is one of the last class act entertainers left! I miss the crazy insane talent blessed from heaven above! God bless you for reacting to them.
Lonely days lonely nights Bee Gees. Great great song pre disco.
I also really love the pre disco era of Bee Gees. To Love Somebody, Words and I've Gotta get a Message to You are all great songs.
THANK YOU!!!!!!! Your honesty on what you're hearing from the Bee Gees is fantastic.
I still have the original album LP from the 70’s !! 🤩
Another song that has this vibe, but not the Bee Gees, is "What a Feeling" by Irene Cara. Now I gotta go listen to it.
And Gloria by Laura Branigan
Love this song!!!!
You make me cry.....just you saying how much you enjoy this music!
magic group...just so special
I had this album back in the day, my Barbies loved getting down to the Bee Gees! Lol. Thanks for the memory!
Try "words" "to love somebody " paying the price of love" "fanny" "one " "love you inside out " "you win again " "I gotta get a message to you " "man in the middle " "this is where I came in " "how do you mend a broken heart " try some of these, there are sooooo many. Plus, Robin and Barry made solo albums.
Yes yes yes!!!!! Nobody ever mentions "this is where I came in" it didnt have huge commercial success but it's among my favorites
@@juliefox1743 i think it was because it was their next step forward into or toward what was becoming popular at that time. So, not so many people expected it. It's part of what always made them great, they tried different things while still being true to themselves.

Bee Gees R my WORLD 🌎😘
They are so great!!! I was lucky to see them once!!🎶🎶🎶🎶👏👏👏👏
I like you & your personality!!! Subscribed. 6:55 that's Barry making a boom sound vocally.
In December 1968 I made my first overseas trip, first stop was the island of Java in Indonesia. I was shocked/surprised when all the young people just wanted to know about the Bee Gees. As an Australian we knew all of their hits and loved them, but it was great to know that their fame had spread to other countries. Pretty soon they had conquered the world. Making a big comeback now in Covid-19 lockdown.
