This group is NOT from America. Please disregard that brief statement. Ty corrected himself in real time but apparently forgot to change this during editing. Carry on!

The Bee Gees had a long and successful career BEFORE "Saturday Night Fever".

This song is not disco. It is more 70s R&B. It is a soulful ballad. Disco qualities are embedded but it is missing the particular beat that defines disco. Having said that, bring on all the disco you want. I love it.

Quincy Jones said BeeGees hit “ Fanny be Tender” is one of the best R&B songs he’s ever heard- Definitely worth a listen- it’s amazing!

Perhaps not in your wheelhouse, but Barry Gibb and Barbra Streisand did a duet "Guilty " worth a listen with two fabulous voices

My belief is that most people who said they "hated" disco were those who couldn't dance. Just my opinion.

They were crucified, criticized, and blackballed by critics, radio, and people for decades due to them being the face of disco. They were bitter and for good reason. They were uber talented and geniuses/

KC and the Sunshine Band would be a good choice for some disco. Also the queen of disco Donna Summer, I Feel Love or Love To Love Ya Baby. Kool and the Gang and Earth Wind and Fire are great as well.. Lots to pick from.

The BeeGees were: the tallest and oldest brother (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. 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 1966. 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). You should react to the 1979 live version of Stayin' Alive, too kzfaq.info/get/bejne/bdSZi7aZnNy7gn0.html Other great songs to analyze: great album tracks from the 1979 Spirits Having Flown album, the title song: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ja6PnZxhy6mtm2g.html, the outrageously beautiful song Reaching Out kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rMx4iLZmssyUYIU.html.

Fanny be tender. You’ll be blown away. Best harmonies ever.

One of the most beautiful pop songs ever. Classic Brothers Gibb.

Are you kidding? This song is FIRE! And every BeeGee song. You haven't done near enough of their catalog.

“Too Much Heaven” is a Bee Gees must listen !!

You have to listen to the original video of Fanny be tender with my love. Quincy Jones and Paul McCartney call it one of the best R&B song ever written. High praise of two of the greats.

Y'all have been in the Yacht Rock groove lately. I would suggest Jive Talking or Nights on Broadway for something a little spicier.

My favorite love song of theirs was "Too Much Heaven" It always gave me chills. A great upbeat song is "Tragedy"

Finally, the first Bee Gees video on this channel! Congratulations!

If you really want Bee Gees disco, try their #1 song "You Should Be Dancing."

*FUN FACT* The Bee Gees wrote the theme song to the movie GREASE (1978). Frankie Valli sang it.

I grow up with the best Group ever. Amazing Voices Amazing Song Amazing Bee Gees. Nobody can switch there Voices like the Bee Gees. I love it. 🕺🥰👍

This is the best song the Bee Gees ever composed or recorded. Period. 🤘🤘

I never considered this song to be disco. The Moody Blues had strings about 10 years before this album

I feel sorry for anyone that hasn't heard the best group that ever lived. They are so very talented and sing so many genres, always reinventing themselves. I have so much love and respect for each of them. Also younger brother Andy was quite the teen throb. Bee Gees music will last forever!!

Barry Gibb grrrreat songwriter and voice control!!❤

Disco was a unique era. The Bee Gees overall were not a disco group. It was one section of their history. Delve into early BGs, I Started A Joke ... and later stuff, For Whom The Bell Tolls, etc...

The brother's Gibb brilliant songwriters,their songs have been recorded by many famous artists. They just sound so good together. They were famous long before Saturday Night Fever. There is a clip on KZfaq of them covering Beatles records, you should really watch it

British of course ,let's make America British again. 👍😂

Watch the movie and listen to the whole soundtrack. These songs take on a whole other level when you see the scenes in which they are part of.

The Bee Gees used orchestral strings and arrangements very early on in their career in the 60s. Bill Shepherd arranged their music for them because they could neither read or write music. Check out their early music - Massachusetts, To Love Somebody, How Can You Mend a Broken Heart, I Started A Joke - so much great music...

Even as a metal head i can tell there’s great harmonies in this song 🤘🏻

Everyone who craps on disco does it to fit in, and then goes home and dances to disco while singing into a hairbrush. Because disco is amazing.

The Bee Bees also wrote over 100 top 10 songs for multiple artists like Diana Ross, Barbara Streisand, Kenny Rogers and more. You hear a lot of Robin in "how deep is your love" too. They are all incredible in their own way and Robin singing Fannie be Tender and I started a Lie are awesome and his voice is almost haunting. Amazingly talented family!

I love this and the 60's Bee Gees....they have a huge catalogue of great pop songs from that decade.

Songs like this remind me of what a great time that was to be alive!

You are right, this was a two step dance (Schleicher (sneak) in german) song in disco, where the light was dimmed and couples danced close- there had no place between a sheet of paper, flirted, kissed.... Fun fact about Barrys smooth, soft voice and sleeping: Barry and M. Jackson were very close friends and by the time M couldn't fall asleep (he was having trouble sleeping) he called Barry to sing "How can you mend a broken heart" to him over the phone!!!

Disco was awesome! Most people liked it but then those who liked rock began to rebel against it because they were afraid disco was going to push rock out completely.......which never happened............pop basically pushed rock to the side more than anything else. But disco was great because it allowed everyone to have a great time any time!

“ Too much heaven!!! And guilty “those are a must

MORE DISCO!!!!! Bring it!!!!

Coincidentally I saw a mini documentary about this album yesterday. And as Barry himself said here, this is not disco. They never saw themselves as a disco group, but were judged by the disco haters, which caused record sales to fall. But ironically they had countless hits after this with songs that they let others sing. Barry had another #1 hit album in the UK in 2021 with "Greenfields - The Gibb Brothers Songbook Vol. 1". Worth listening to.

Too Much Heaven next, please! 💯

One of the greatest love songs ever written. Timeless and beautiful.

Love Disco and the Bee Gees even more...

More Bee Gees please! You should be dancing and Too much heaven

"Fanny (be Tender)" is THE Bee Gees song that displays an outstanding vocal arrangement and layers of harmonies like no other.

Their falsettos are beautiful. Yes we used to dance slow together at discothèques.

I love The Bee Gees before and after this album.

Many other artists had hits with songs written and/or produced by the Gibb brothers, particularly Barry.

I think the Bee Gees stands for Brothers Gib. Listen to some of their pre-disco music. Lonely Days is a good listen. The disco era was like one big party! Lots of dancing and drinking. I am a boomer. We had the Beetles, Led Zeppelin, Motown, the Who, the Bee Gees , MJ, Neil Diamond., etc. We were blessed!

This song played when Travolta was on a train, having a little alone time between jive dancing! 😅 And people who know Bee Gees love this, and every song of theirs. Like 'Too Much Heaven', 'Tragedy', 'Nights On Broadway', 'Alone' (stratospherically high falsettos by all three of them), even higher than Too Much Heaven!

I hated disco but loved the Bee Gees because their music was in a class by itself.

Boz Scaggs has a few songs in the classic movie Urban Cowboy which also stars John Travolta.

For a high school male this was grab azz heaven at the dances. The kind of song that would get you in trouble with the chaperones. :)

I think I almost choked to death. The Bee Gees took off in the 60's. There were serious hits throughout the 60's which a lot of young people completely miss. This also continued into the 70's. Then in 1977, remarkably they were asked to write a soundtrack to a proposed movie called, Saturday Night Fever. And well, as they say the rest is history! I personally prefer their early 60's music. But hey, we are talking about he Bee Gees, I will take it all!😁

Don't forget about Andy rest in peace Add a early age... The teen beat hearthrob!

amazing song and unless times change we will never hear songs like this again, the 70's is the best era of music in human history period

Disco never dies 😊

I’ve always liked The Bee Gees. Some of my favorites are Tragedy, Jive Talkin, Stayin Alive, just to name a few. Theses songs that I mentioned are faster pace songs which you can dance to though. And I love disco, mainly because I like to dance. Donna Summer was a disco queen for sure. I liked Hot Stuff, I Feel Love, Bad Girls, just to name a few of hers, as well.

I watched the film "Saturday Night Fever", a dance melodrama, I liked the way John Travolta played, especially his dancing in this film to the music of the Bee Gees, they don't shoot this now, I recommend watching it.

So many Bee Gee`s hits...you must hear "Too Much Heaven" (the official video) a huge hit & they gave all the proceeds to charity. Many more..."Night Fever"; "More Than A Woman"; "Jive Talking", many more. But, check out 'Too Much Heaven" first!!!

Tragedy and Fanny be tender if you want more Bee Gees....If You want Disco...Donna Summers

Too Much Heaven is the best Bee Gees song

Ryan may flip if y'all do Too Much Heaven by the Bee Gees. I'm as a rule I like that y'all do the studio or radio when you react. But if y'all decide to do Too Much Heaven do the live studio version where u get to see Barry expressions while singing. And Robin and Maurice back up vocals are great and there all three vocals are so together it's fantastic

They had so many hits before the disco era. They hated to be known as a disco band. They could change genre with every decade. They have number one hits in 4 decades. The rabbit hole is so deep. They have also written for so many artist and so many artist have covered their hits. Not one of the brothers can read or write music. That's what makes them even more amazing.

Other great Bee Gees songs: "Fanny (Be Tender With My Love)" "One" "Alone" "Nights On Broadway"

All the genres from every time and style all had good and bad songs in them. These guys and Queen and Elvis Presley, Joe Cocker, Chicago, Roy Orbison, Ray Charles, and so many others will live on in their great songs way into the future. There are even a few women like Shirley Bassey, Aretha Franklin, and …… I’m starting to forget names now. Most people favour the best of their growing up music… until Dimash came along…..he completely changed the ball game.

Greatest Love song ever written.....

They did a lot of mega hits , but just a few Disco songs .

I like this song but I prefer the older Bee Gees songs like, "Massachusetts", "How Can You Mend A Broken Heart", "I Started A Joke" and "Lonely Days, Lonely Nights".

I don't know what took so long to play them. One of the most incredible groups EVER! More please! Fanny be tender with my love is so mind blowing. So is love you inside out.

Long story short: my mom got tired of having to put the needle back on One Way Or Another by Blondie when I was like 6 because I wasn't allowed to touch the stereo, so I got my own turntable and speakers for my birthday that year. I freakin' love Bee Gees and always have! I had the Saturday Night Fever album, AND Sesame Street Fever, same album cover but muppets (Grover was Travolta, c'man!). These gentlemen are my guilty pleasure, I bump these boys all the time! You Should Be Dancing has been my jam for over 40 years!

Bee Gees 'Tragedy', upbeat like 'Staying Alive'

The greatest of all times. GOAT 😊

I love disco… I was born in 1973 so I was still very young when disco was popular but I love it. Get this… I can remember my mom had this soundtrack on 8-Track! I remember her playing it in her 1967 Ford Mustang. 😂 Night Fever is my favorite from The Bee Gees … they’re a great band!

My family legend says I could sing *all* the Bee Gees songs, before I could speak, as a baby. Give their 1960's tunes a listen, "Massachusetts" or "I started a Joke" with Robin on lead, it'll bring you to tears.

You say you want a little something more at the end of a Bee Gee's song, Nick?? Then take a listen to Fanny (Be Tender With My Love)! This song is one of their best!! It is a vocal & musical masterpiece and will definitely blow your socks and headphones off 🎶🎵🔊🧦🎧

The crazy thing about The Bee Gees is that they are basically a punch line in modern culture. Yet every time one of their song comes on, we're all smiling at the music the way you gents are in this video. Love your content, keep up the good work.

So utterly smooth. 1977 was such a big year, the music just kept coming and coming. Thanks guys

Disco was a great era! Those of us who lived through that time had a great time dancing to it.

Bee gees are British Born in the Isle of Man and moved to Australia. They are brothers and Robin and Maurice are twins Barry in the middle is the lead singer and the older brother. I listened to them when I was a child. This particular song was released in Disco era but has got Earth Wind and Fire influence and Beach boys harmony. So nice that young people like you can appreciate this type of music. I am 65 and my son is teaching me new music and I think music is timeless, when you listen to it it gets to your heart. I can listen to bee gees leave it for a while and come back to it and feel the same. They have that magic time after time. Thanks guys I enjoyed your reaction very much.

Love the Bee Gee's, I was in Germany in the 70's and they were the most popular group going. They made DISCO as far as I am concerned. I think disco brought in the strings, like yoou were saying. Check out some other Disco Groups from the 70's. Fantastic.

BeeGees is why I fell in love with disco when I was a teenager.

Cause we're living in a world of fools breaking us down when they all should let us be, we belong to you and me😭❤️

Those boys could sure write songs. 'You Should be Dancing' is a great one from the album. Lots going on in it and Barry hits you with both the falsetto and his stronger lower voice. It's a great performance.

Love this song!

I know the Bee Gees since 1978 and they will be hot forever!❤

Those voices and that harmony you can't beat! Loved this movie in the 70s! ❤

The Bee Gees were, I think, British kids, all brothers, brought up at Cribb Island, a suburb of Brisbane, Australia, and did local stuff before being heard and moving to America, back when I was a teenager.

You can play just about any track off the Saturday Night Fever sound track,and it's going to be good,whether the boomers admit it or not,Bee Gee's were a great group in the 70's,be it disco or other genres.I prefer southern rock myself,but there are so many 70's groups it was just a great time to grow up and experience it all!

They had some great songs in the disco era which I love, but I do prefer their earlier hits. My favorite song of theirs though is actually the title track from their album "Spirits Having Flown". Love that song!

The Bee Gees have 5 songs on this album!!! Need to to listen to the whole album cause every song is great !!!! Staying Alive Night Fever Jive Talkin You Should Be Dancing 🕺 😂❤

This song is a Slow Dance Song, No Disco didn't draw in the strings.. The Big Band Era brought in the Strings in Orchestras... Slow dance was very different than dancing they do today...today is just standing there be bopping or something, not real dancing. Back in my day it was Class to see a couple that could actually dance beautifully together..

LOWDOWN is definitely disco especially when that signature flute motive enters. Do YOU SHOULD BE DANCING or TRAGEDY next 🕺🏼

Some of the Bee Gees songs were Disco...Most all are Loved today because they are timeless. There was Disco music back in the day that was pretty cheesy and played in small nightclubs, but The Bee Gees Wasn't one of them....A lot of Disco back in my day was just Dance music..not a whole lot of singing. The Bee Gees songs will live on in the memories of the past and in the future Memories yet to be made. A certain Genre of people liked MJ, a certain Genre of people liked the Beatles, A certain Genre of People like Country but I can't think of any race, any gender, any age, any Genre of music fans that do not like The Bee Gees. I'm hitting 80 and went to Woodstock. My favorite music is The Eagles, CCR, Hendrix, Garth Brooks, Sam Cooke, Boz Scaggs and The Bee Gees....

The song hasn't even begun and the 3 of you are already cracking up. You Rock

Let me tell you. I was in my early 20s during disco's peak and it was so much fun. I used to get dressed up and go to clubs that played 45 minute songs. Motown had strings in most of its songs starting in the 1960s.

The Bee Gees are one if my favorite groups. Growing up listening to them was fantastic. “Fanny Be Tender” is the best song ever. Disco was fun. There was a lot if disco to enjoy.

This is an easy listening love song that was composed and performed by a group that had 3 huge disco songs, Staying Alive, Night Fever, and More Than A Woman,. All 4 on the biggest selling disco album of all time. The song Tragedy came out a few years later and had a more synth-rock sound to it, although it was likely a hit on the dance floors and at roller-skating rinks.

The Gibb brothers as you read earlier, started to sing together when they were six and Barry was nine. I have been a fan since I was a teenager and I’m 62 now. I have read every book about them. Listen to every interview I have almost every CD that they’ve ever come out with. For some reason even though they’ve been singing together over 50 years people still call them a disco group. And that is one thing that Barry Gibb used to get really upset about. Because Saturday night fever soundtrack was definitely when disco was popular. But they only sang disco songs maybe two or three years and they’re Scan of the time that they were together was 40 years plus. They had hits in the 60s in the 70s the 80s the 90s and even the early 2000s until Maurice passed away. If you really want to hear some of their best work, listen to some of their music from the 60s such as I can’t see nobody, to love somebody, world, Spicks and specks. You will be pleasantly surprised.❤

I fell in love with the BeeGees at 15ys old in the 70s going to skateland in my home town it was so wonderful...aww love ❤️ 😍 💖 the BeeGees.. I'm 60 now but the love is still there ❤. Have you listened to TO MUCH HEAVEN??

Thanks, I always look forward to your next reaction! There are SOOOOOO many more impressive BeeGees songs, in my humble opinion, than this one. I'd love to see you react to amazing songs from my favorite Bee Gees era - the 1960s! For starters, try: Massachusetts I Started a Joke New York Mining Disaster 1941 To Love Somebody Words To Love Somebody In 1975, there's a fantastic live performance on the TV program called The Midnight Special of a song I think all of you would enjoy,, called Nights on Broadway. Final recommendation- please watch the video from their 1997 song, Alone, if you haven't already. They'd been creating and performing together for 40 years!
