@JourneytotheBeats This song was actually written by his big brother Barry, who also sung background, played guitar, and produced Andy’s records. Andy idolized Barry. They worked together on all of Andy’s albums. And congrats on improving the sound quality of your reactions.👌🏾 More of Andy, do I just wanna be your everything (another one written by Barry); or Shadow Dancing (written by all 4 brothers) Bee Gees: do FANNY BE TENDER WITH MY LOVE (one of my favorites and the late Quincy Jones said this was his favorite R&B song.)
Thank you very much Sandra. We definitely plan to do more of Andy's music. Also, I'm glad that the sound of the video is better to you. Let me know if you have any other suggestions. We are hoping to keep improving 😁💯
The Bee Gees had five songs in the TOP 5 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart for one week in March 1978. The songs were: Night Fever: The number one song Stayin' Alive: The number two song Love Is Thicker Than Water: By Andy Gibb Emotion: By Samantha Sang If I Can't Have You: By Yvonne Elliman They wrote the last 2 songs for Samantha Sang and Yvonne Elliman and also recorded it themselves
Some more Andy songs you would like: Desire (written by Bee Gees) Love is Thicker than water Shadow dancing His brothers dedicated their album One to Andy. He was supposed to have joined them on that album but sadly passed away. They wrote Wish you were here for Andy but could not perform it live (just too hard), also a song called Tears.
I loved Andy. Huge crush. Andy had a solo career because he was born the year the group Bee Gees was established. In January of 88 they announced Andy would be joining the group as a permanent member but sadly Andy passed away on March 10th just five days after his 30th birthday. They would have been even more sensational with all four. A beautiful song they wrote for Andy is, Wish You Were Here. Please react to Andy on the Midnight Special singing, I Just Wanna Be Your Everything. His first three releases hit number one. Nobody else has done this. At one time 6 Bee Gees songs were in the top 10. One was sang by Andy but written by him and the brothers. He even knocked them out of the number one spot. Barry and Andy were a lot alike. They were 12 years apart but had identical birthmarks. There's a video of Andy singing Words where he's growing a beard and looks so much like Barry it's crazy. He's wearing a black tuxedo in the video and singing for President Reagan.
Sadly, Barry was outvoted twice by the twins for Andy to join, so that wasn't gonna ever happen. There's several interviews where Barry talks about it.
Andy was kind of Barry's mini me, about half a foot shorter and 12 years younger but they were the only lefties of the family. However, his voice was nowhere near as broad in range or as strong as Barry's. As producer Alby Galuten said in the book "Tales of the brothers Gibb "Andy's falsetto was nowhere near Barry's." Andy had a lower, huskier, sound to his voice and his range was not as big as Barry's. I personally always thought his voice was much better suited to songs of his first album, Flowing Rivers. Andy died of myocarditis - which is an inflammation of the heart - on March 10, 1988, 5 days after his 30th birthday. His heart had been weakened by his drug addiction over the years which, by the way, was also the main reason for his split from Victoria Principal. He also had a congenital heart problem that was later also discovered in Barry and Barry's second son Ashley. Try listening to the song Dreamin' on th-cam.com/video/-KdBVKcSSSw/w-d-xo.html which is kind of a duet with Barry. And here are the 4 brothers live on stage in 1979 doing You Should Be Dancing th-cam.com/video/_6MR-E_Qzz0/w-d-xo.html And finally a few photos of Barry and Andy: i.postimg.cc/jS6n3Jkv/Barry-Andy.jpg and i.postimg.cc/TwnPh8M0/82c126fc42a35d3b737867af41338199.jpg and the 4 brothers with their mother i.postimg.cc/FRNMbwkD/b9b2561eadffee11347573c97063c2f8-zpsd89478eb.jpg The BeeGees were: the tallest and oldest brother ('lead vocals on this song; later with the big hair and beard), Barry Gibb, born September 1, 1946, the only surviving Gibb brother. Robin Gibb (with the long hair, no beard), born December 22, 1949-passed away May 20, 2012, and Robin's fraternal twin brother Maurice (the balding brother with the beard, pronounced "Morris") Gibb, born December 22, 1949-passed away January 12, 2003. This clip showed Barry (the bigger boy) and Robin (the smaller boy) when they were kids. They also had another, younger, brother Andy Gibb, born March 5, 1958-passed away March 10, 1988. The three oldest brothers were born on the Isle of Man (UK). Oldest brother Barry got seriously burned when he accidentally pulled boiling tea over himself at 18 months old. He was in coma for a while, nearly died and was in hospital for many months. Because of this, he did not learn to talk until after the twins were born. Later the family moved to Manchester and from there they emigrated to Australia in 1958, right after Andy was born. All 4 brothers are just natural musical talents. All of them dropped out of high school in their early teens and none of them could read or write music. All their compositions were created completely organically. Their musical career, which they had started as little kids, didn't lead to international success so they moved back to the UK in 1967. Then they had a string of big hits, until they temporarily broke up around 1970 for 15 months. Started back up, looking for a new sound which they first found in 1974 with the transitional album "Mr. Natural". After that "Main Course" was the first album that moved them into a new direction: more rhythm&blues, dance music like with great hits like Nights on Broadway and Jive Talkin' (and was also actually the first album on which their logo was introduced). From 1976 on they went all out with falsetto driven dance music which lead to their biggest commercial success as they provided classic songs for the Saturday Night Fever Soundtrack (1977 Stayin' Alive, How Deep is Your Love, Night Fever amongst them).

Love this song. You can hear the BeeGees sound coming through. RIP Andy, Robin and Mo❤
Agreed 💯 Thank you so much for watching this and joining our community here.
Although it's just Barry on backing vocals.

👍👍👌
😁👍
Will you please react on Be Who You Are singin by Barry Gibb frome the album living eyes?
That's such a great song! It's Barry's anthem to the public (or middle finger) after the unfair backlash they received.
michael jackson and barry gibb all in your name
I recommend the following song
