Any Bee Gees in good Bee Gees. They didn’t get half the credit they deserved

I love hearing Barry's and Robin's incredible full voices! This song shows Mo's beautiful and powerful voice too - all so necessary in their fabulous harmonies. Beautiful! I listened to them for all their years except the youngest but have gone back to listen to them over the years as an adult (not a teen). I love all the phases and talent and respect them for everything they did. Like watching her face at the points I love the most in their voices.

I loved the pre-disco Bee Gees Their music was so much more varied and displayed their incredible vocal range Robin took the lead in many of their early songs too His voice is incredible.

Barry has said this is his all-time favorite song the BeeGees ever performed. Barry's natural voice has a range from baritone to mid-tenor. (The late) Robin's natural voice was really more encompassing of the full tenor spectrum, while Robin's twin brother, (the late) Maurice, ranged from bass to baritone and was a master of harmonizing. Barry claims his first real adventure in singing falsetto was when they recorded "Nights on Broadway" in 1975. It went over so well, they incorporated that falsetto sound into their future heyday of hit, after hit, after iconic and amazing hit. At one time, they had 4 songs in the Top-10, 3 of them were in the Top-5.

LOVE and respect the Bee Gees. They certainly worked their butts off to be able to have the hit songs they had over 5 decades. They deserve the accolades! And I love watching younger people enjoy and analyze their music and methods. The voices and harmony of those brothers was a gift from God.

Early on, Maurice provided the falsetto. He does the high part on Nights on Broadway.

I loved them pre-disco a bit more as well. Nights on Broadway is my favourite BeeGees song. They are so masterful with their harmonies. So lovely.

So glad to see someone do the bee gees. Especially their old stuff. It's the best.

The Brothers Gibb. Enough said. PS that's Sir Barry 🙌🏼❤️🙏💰🎸🎹🎤😉🍰

Masters of harmony. And brilliant song 🎶 writers.

I've heard that song 100 times and NEVER noticed how he doesn't finish "somebody". What an excellent call out and how they worked so well together.

I love listening to you explain. Barry and Robin wrote this song for Ottis Redding a soul singer, so it was very R&B. Ottis Redding died in a plane crash in 1967 before he could record this record. The Bee Gees ended up sing ing it themselves. They stayed amazingly relevant. Their music in the 1990's was some of my favorite even the 2000's.

Please show more Bee Gees your insight is impeccable. And a joy to hear. Too Much Heavan or How Deep is you love. This is no doubt the most talented and successful family group in history.

A recording tech said once he asked Barry to re-do a section e few times, so he could pick and choose the best bits to use. He sang the same section with No variations, note perfect, same timing, 5 times in a row. How is that for musical excellence, instincts and performance. That is why they sound the same live. He did get sick of the falsetto, saId so, his bros said it's still working, so he kept on with it.

I am so glad you are reacting to the early Bee Gees! I loved their early music. I didn’t care too much for disco music.

Great reaction. Love your dissection of this song and group. They have always been my favorite over the years, so much talent!

Maurice sings the falsettos on this song.

If you get a chance have a listen to Too Much Heaven by the Bee Gees. I think you'll love it, the voices are amazing.

Always been a Bee Gees fan. I loved Andy also. Gone too soon. Pre-disco, smack dab in disco, post-disco. Doesn’t matter to me. I just loved them. Loved How Deep is Your Love.

Wow they are so young... I had to look it up... Barry was only 20-21 and the twins 17-18 in 1967.

Best band of all time by such a long way never get old listening to bee gees classics.and yes better than the Beatles and the stone

Please, How deep is your love, Too much heaven, both of the official videos would be wonderful. Thank you :)

review to much heaven, the harmonies are unreal

My favorite Bee Gees song and performance by far !!!

So beautiful song I Like so much

Been a fan since almost their beginnings…. Got their 2 greatest hits records for my birthday in either 75 or 76…. Have you seen their performance of “Massachusetts” on (I think) the Parkinson show? Impromptu version with just a guitar. Absolutely stunning. And then in the 2000s, came an album called “man in the middle” which had some terrific songs on it. So they kept making great music in the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s, and 00s. Not bad for a band that “nobody liked”.

There's just something special about brothers singing together and the beautiful blended sound they create.

Love your reactions. Always learn a lot from you and you seem to enjoy as well.

Great comments by this professional. I enjoyed your evaluation of these voices.

One of my all-time favourite artists. Loved their music through the years regardless of the style. Beth I love how you’re bringing back these artists of the past to give us a new appreciation of their vocal talents and skills.❤

You do a great job--look, personality, voice--a natural.

Thanks for this!! I liked what you said at the end - yes I grew up w/ the Bee Gees. Dad bringing home the albums (He was a DJ so always the latest albums and concerts even when I was 5.) BUt the mid 70's the Bee Gee's were looking for a new sound. I believe you saw the "Mr. Natural videos and that era just before Jive Talkin - some very good never really heard before material. This was really Robin's era. Look up "Alone Again" on Midnight special.. or "Mr Natural" on Mike Douglas show.. You can see them changing right there.. Love it!!!

Horizontal from the album of the same name is one of my favorite early BeeGees songs. Very underrated. Also Lemons Never Forget i think youll be surprised how good these teenagers could write and perform early on. Love your reactions. Dont stop ❤❤

Thank you so much for having done Bee Gees. I grew up with them and love them. If you haven't already, could you do a video of one of their songs in which Robin's voice is more prominent, maybe 'Run to Me' or 'Nights on Broadway'? I am interested in his voice. Keep up the great work and thanks again. I love your unique and informative videos!

Barry had so may different singing voices, he was like at least three lead singers in one. Thanks for pointing that out. He loved to play with different volumes, textures, tones, etc. I have never figured out why they have Maurice lip syncing Robin's ad lib at the end, but of course, that's Robin's unmistakable voice.

Something about the line “a certain kind of light that never shown on me” is just so good! I’m not sure what it is but i love it haha! And love the BeeGees of course!

Wow those outfits. What a talented bunch

The pre-disco Bee Gees are the only Bee Gees i love. Great songwriting that sometimes equalled Lennon/McCartney. Fantastic harmonies. It's a shame that so many reaction channels only listen to the disco tunes.

“I Started A Joke” with a gorgeous Robin vocal would be another great Bee Gees track to react to Bethany! I love that you did an older pre disco Bee Gees song and a live version as well. You are my favorite reaction channel and I love your knowledge, passion and enthusiasm! More Bee Gees please! 🥰❤️🙏

Bethany ,great reaction wow ....

Maurice in this ❤❤❤

Thank the algorithm for bringing you to my starving ears. Your observations are just so spot on. Coulda happened sooner you know.

Thank you for your amazing analyses. Can du do more on bee gees and heart.. ❤

This song was half written before they left Australia to seek fame overseas. I know because I own the sheet of paper that the boys used. When they left Australia they took about 25 songs they had already written or were in the process of doing. I also own around 30 songs they did record here in Hurstville Studios, Sydney that have never been released.

60's sideburns on the host... quite impressive.

Barry goes back to his chest voice after the 70s in thier music in the 80s, 90s and 2000s. My fav era of the Bee gees

I love this early Bee Gees because it was blues, before they (more or less) created Disco. I don't hate disco now, but back then I was not ready.

Love these guys and ALL their music, ballads to funky R&B to contemporary R&B. It's all great. Wonderful analysis. TY

The Bee Gees knew how to evolve during the decades, not just with their singing, but also with their writing of songs. What we sometimes forget is the number of songs that the Bee Gees wrote for other artists that also became well known hits. You can go back a lot earlier to when they began on TV in Australia in the late 1950's where they performed on Australia's version of Bandstand hosted by Brian Henderson.

What is interesting about this song is that Maurice at the very end takes the high part of the harmony - he always usually sang the low register of the 3 part harmony, but he could switch from one part to another seamlessly. It is why Barry said they couldn't carry on as the "Bee Gees" when Maurice died.

The one thing other than Barry's voice is how he controls the mic. Watch close he pulls it away on the high/loud notes. Former sound engineer. Great review thank you!

Indeed. 60s BeeGees were very cool and hip.

I have not yet seen a reaction to the Bee Gees' FANNY (Be Tender With My Love)...reactionists, specially those with sound recording knowledge, and even musical/chorale directors should listen to this, because it is the only song that they have never done live due to the technical complexity involved when they recorded it. Also, this song was one of three hit singles from their transition album MAIN COURSE, as it was in their single NIGHTS on BROADWAY where they first discovered and put to substantial use Barry's falsetto. This album was truly BALLAD Bee Gees to R&B, eventually evolving into music that would be mistakenly identified as disco.

My fave channel doing this. Not only is she absolutely lovely, but she loves music and it comes through in her smile and joy . Infectious ❤❤❤

Talk about fulfilling your purpose on earth! The Bee Gees certainly did that and more. We are so lucky they have given us all of this wonderful music to enjoy.

Agree. They are so gifted and fascinating to watch through the years. Barry’s signature song became WORDS. Watching his 1968, then 1979 Live, then 1989 Live performances is amazing. Also their 1960, 1963, and other tv performances as kids and teens. Would love to watch more of your Bee Gees reactions and analysis.

Hey, must say this was such a great pleasure to hear your analysis, so thanxalot from a die-hard Bee Gees fan since 1967, when I heard them first as a 13 year old boy. Was like thunder and lightning to me, so never before such voice-abilities came to my ear. So let me giveya a string of songs over the decades, to build up your mind about these tracks. It's only one out of the sixties up to 2001. 'Let There Be Love' (1969), 'Had A Lot Of Love Tonight' (1972), 'Ordinary People' (1988), 'For Whom The Bell Tolls' (1992) and 'Wedding Day' (2001). I'm sure, you'll have lotsafun!

I just love the way you explain how amazing these artists are. It makes me appreciate them so much !!

HOW GOOD WERE THOSE GUYS!

Ah... the late 60s. Nothing, dress-wise, was too crazy to wear! Here we see lush paisley fabric for Barry's coat coupled with (gasp!) wide striped bell bottom pants. Kind of the Baroque Look. Etcetera. It was crazy... it was outrageous... and damn, it sure was Fun !!!

This was in Australia. The guys got their start here and first No.1 hit with Spicks and Specks. Their dad quit hit job and drove the boys around, singing wherever they could. They had a lot of TV appearances so by the time they went back to England they had honed their craft. Barry destroyed his voice singing falsetto, which Maurice could sing naturally. Barry was the bossy boots LOL. Maurice should have been used far more than he was.

The Bee Gees are just the most fantastic band. Their voices individually, the way their harmonies just blend so beautifully together, their prolific songwriting with their lyrical poetry. Thank you for your analysis of this timeless classic. Please react to LOVE YOU INSIDE OUT, thank you. ❤❤❤

I had never noticed how much Maurice is showcased in this song until this reaction. They were all outstanding singers and musicians!

Would love to hear a Robin led song (like 'Lamplight' on Odessa), his voice is so distinct and unique. I love the Robin lead songs best.

I recall when this song came on the radio. God, did I love the Bee Gees. Still do!!

You are so good at your analysis.And of the other 1000 people trying to do reactions videos you are so much better. Also, glad you don’t use the annoying huge headsets and gigantic microphone.

One of my favorite Reactors and a great choice to present - pre disco BeeGees are very very underrated. I always thought the emotion they projected in their songs was better than most performers that just seem to sing a song, Listening to this (and many of their others) feels like they lived the song, not just sang it. My old Choir Director (trained from Eastman School of music) said he thought Meatloaf's For Crying Out Loud (studio version) was the greatest male vocal performance ever - I think it would be a great reaction choice for you and to hear f you agree. On a side note, Don Potter gives an amazing vocal performance in Chuck Mangione's Children of Sanchez kzfaq.info/get/bejne/aJ6Upplq0Ne9aKc.html This isn't popular enough for a reaction video but for your own enjoyment of a genre you have probably never heard before, its worth a listen.

웃는얼굴로 방송하는 당신은 정말 아름답군요.

You should listen to their 1989 Medley where they sing a lot of their songs live without much backup music.

This is my favorite Bee Gees song. I've been a fan since 1967 and saw them 5 times in concert. 💖

Disco may have saved the Bee Gees career for another decade or so but the pre disco Bee Gees was awesome for rock and roll and they were certainly a major player in the British Invasion grew up listening to this and though I wasn't a disco fan they became the high water mark in Disco in my humble opinion

We watched these guys grow up on Australian TV in the 60s. A few years before this performance I saw the in a rock and roll tent show at the Sydney Royal Easter Show.

You really must check out the harmonies of the pre-teen Bee Gees videos.

I love you bethany

Its cute how this youngster doesn't realize that all these old tv shows were entirely lip synched. She thinks the brothers Gibb are singing live, but this is identical in every way to the original studio recording. 😉

I grew up with this great group & had a lot of their albums. Most people react to their disco era. My favorites are from the 60's-70's. Some of their early hits were "New York Mining Disaster 1941", "Holiday", "World", "And The Sun Will Shine", "Really & Sincerely", "The Singer Sang His Song", "Lonely Days", "Melody Fair", "First Of May", "I Started A Joke", "I've Gotta Get A Message To You", "Massachusetts" etc.

♥️✨♥️

Ciao Bellissima, non avevo mai visto i Bee Gees così giovani..impressionante

Need to hear "too much heaven"

Love, love, love, The Bee Gees. The man's mutton's chops in the very beginning not so much.

Please do Too Much Heaven!

Barry was 21, and the twins were 18, in this video.

Check out the Live version of Nights on Broadway from the show Saturday Night Special. Berry doesn't use the falsetto and I think that Maurice who uses his, has the better falsetto out of the 2 of them

I had no idea this was the beegees

I saw the Bee Gees live at the Municipal Auditorium in Nashville, TN in the early to mid-1970s. The Nashville Symphony Orchestra was their backup. I never liked the disco stuff they did, but I loved the older music.

😻😻😻😻😻

Brava!! Love your analysis. I've listened to this song/track several dozen times over the last couple of years alone (mostly other YT reactions), but yours brought new info a nd observations to the table. Thanks! Saving this reaction to watch again and I subbed to your channel!

I've been waiting for a vocal channel to do early Bee Gees. Thank you.

Bee Gees in the 60s and early 70s were one of my favorite bands/groups. I couldn't stand their Saturday Night Album in '78. For me, it was the end of an era. This particular song is iconic for the time--so many artists covered it, from Janis Joplin to Barbra Streisand and everyone in between.

Has anyone ever mentioned your similarity to Karen lynn Gorney (Stephanie) Saturday Night Fever🤔

I love the analysis and discussion! The 60s BeeGees are my favorite, although I love them in all eras. Great song to showcase ❤

First U.S. hits were New York Mining Disaster of 1941 and Massachusetts.

Am cray I miss you❤❤ so guy so guy

I love it when the analyzer doesn't know the history of an artist and just assumes they changed their music style because they "grew" as artists. The Bee Gees broke up not too long after this because Robin was jealous that Barry was getting all the attention and singing lead and wanted to be a solo artist. When they reunited a few years later they were struggling commerciallyl and almost lost their record deal. It was Robert Stigwood who told them they needed to write some popular music, have some hits or they were going to lose their record deal. They had already written and recorded most of what became the soundtrack to Saturday Night Fever when Stigwood convinced them to let the music be used in the movie to maximize exposure for their new album. The rest, as they say, is history. So yeah, 50 years later it looks deliberate - but it wasn't that way at all.

Do I see Dave Lee Travis introducing them there?

Back in the 60's they didn't even know they could sing falsetto

Loved the Bee Gees until they went disco. Then, I couldn't tell you.

i dont know what to watch or listen..i was more into her teeths .it so white and she has such a lovely smile to go with it

This particular performance is a lip sync to the official record. However, the Bee Gees were very good fully live as well, and you can find fully live performances on KZfaq. It's just that most of the early ones are more obscure songs. They do sing some of their old songs in later live performances though.

When someone creates videos that reflect their own true feelings, it's almost impossible to not betray who they really are. Beyond your technical expertise lies a charming and endearing personality. In my mind this is due to many factors, but is largely the result of your upbringing. My compliments to your family, but especially to your father. As a peer, I have a feeling that he and I would get along really well. Please give him my best, and my thanks, for raising such a great daughter.
