We must protect Barry Gibb at all costs! ❤️ He's our last Bee Gee!

"Excuse me, stewardess...I speak Jive". One of the best lines in a movie. Ever. Peace and Love.

The Bee Gees get dismissed as a “Disco” band but they are so much more than “disco”. Damn fine songwriters right up there with the best! And fantastic musicians. Adore them... all of them. So sad only Barry remains.

The Bass line in this song is truly epic on all levels, Maurice was a hell of a Bass player.

Did anyone else envision Mr. Jamel in a leisure suit, platform shoes, big hair while he was burning up the dance floor at the disco? Or was that just me?

Mo laying down this bass line throughout the song is RIDICULOUS!!! so underrated!

I love how Jamel snapped into that groove from the very first NOTE!

I grew up in the 60s and 70s and was NEVER ashamed to say I loved the Bee Gees.

Barry said that the musical inspiration for this song’s rhythm, was the click clack sound of a car going over a bridge near his home... Proof that Inspiration can come from anywhere.

Can't say it to loud but this rocker loves him some BeeGee's. Keep going.

Maurice is playing some savage bass on this one.

I love the sound Maurice gets out of that Rickenbacker bass.

The amazing beat that runs through this song was inspired by the sound their car made driving over the bridge that led to their studio.

Some people would refer to "Jive" as meaning lying. Like instead of: "Are you BSn' me?" They might say, "Are you jiven'?"

The Bee Gees can sing anything. They wrote their own music and wrote songs for a lot of other stars.

You gotta admit, Maurice on that bass, bad as hell on this song!

The Bee Gees had so many great songs. It was several different eras. They could create a genre or adapt to one.

"Excuse me stewardess I speak jive." Great line from that movie.

My husband just told me to turn the volume down - why did I marry someone 6 years older than me??? He use to like loud music.

The intro was developed from a sound of going across a bridge ... and they did not initially know what ‘Jive Talking’ really meant 😂 Truly authentic and soulful group 💞

This was the song I did my leg workout to when I was a 30 something hottie back in the day. I'm a 74 year old great grandmother now. Love the music.

Their smooth harmonies on "Emotion" and the power behind "Tragedy" are two I know you'll love!

Here's another fun fact for you, Jamel... When this song was first released, the Bee gees and their management were afraid it wouldn't get any airplay because at that time, the band was basically type cast by the stuff they did earlier in their career and they were out of vogue, so they sent the song out to radio stations with a plain white label. Jive Talkin' actually became a monster hit before anyone even knew it was the Bee Gees, and by the time the radio stations figured out who it was, the train was already rolling down the tracks. No stopping the Bee gees Express! ALL ABOARD!!!

"Funky as Hell!" 🤣🤣🤣 Now you know about the Bee Gees!

"You should Be Dancin'" is another great one by these guys.

That solo is one of the most memorable disco synthesizer riffs of the '70s.

Ain't nothin' like a funky groove to put one in a really good mood... "Can ya dig it? I KNEW thatcha could!" Love it.

I recently watched a documentary on Sky here in the UK called The Bee Gees How to Mend a Broken Heart. A must for anyone who loves their music. They said they got the groove for this song when driving over a bridge on the way to the studio in Florida. The sound of the traffic on the bridge gave them the idea for the beat. That’s why it was originally called Drive Talking.

love the beegees playing the instruments. maurice's bass tone is absolutely sick. just amazing

Damn, Jamel literally cut a rug on this one!

This and Nights On Broadway are my favorite songs from them. Really funky and groovy! My high school friends made fun of me for being into disco back then but I knew that I just loved ALL good music and they were the fools!

My father was an ardent Bee Gees fan, what a precious bond to have had with him! Their harmonies are unparalleled.

Back in the day, "jive" also referred to being fake or deceptive. "Don't play me like that" is the basic message. "Don't give me no jive."

If this song doesn’t get you moving, you should probably check yourself for a pulse.

Memories.....holy shit!!!! My mom driving...I was like 7 or 8. We sang this together along with the am radio!!!!. I'm old...mom is 82 and as full of life as ever!!! Love my memories ❤️ ❤️❤️❤️

I've gotten in trouble when driving with this song on and it gets to the hand claps, like I CANNOT, like IMPOSSIBLY NOT clap along, so I'm holding the steering wheel with my leg and hoping I don't have to shift gears. (militant manual driver) It's a freaking beauty ❤️

Gibb brother Andy Gibbs's "Shadow Dancin"' is another great shoulder mover.

The Bee Gee’s Is in the top 5 greatest artist of all time.

They never got the credit they deserved when they were still all alive and making music. They are truly a treasure.💜❤️

Gotta love Jamel....one of the happiest & hippest dudes for his age!!

That scene in Airplane when Barbara Billingsly starts talkin jive is so freakin hilarious!🤣🤣

Beaver's mother speaks jive-😂

There is a Bee Gees documentary that tells how they came up with the sound at the beginning of this song. Its one of my biggest favourites of their music. 😊

When you said “what is this?!” I cracked up. Man The Bee Gees always jammed. Watch the HBO documentary - you’ll learn how racists tried to destroy disco.

Fanny (Be Tender With My Love) from Bee Gees is great too. Same album as Jive Talkin 👍 revamped their career

"Nights On Broadway" is next as a companion to Jive Talkin. This was their transition period between early sound and the disco era.

The best harmonies your ears ever heard

Barry Gibb is a goddamned beautiful Lion.

Bee Gee's " How Can You Mend A Broken Heart".

Bee Gees - You Should Be Dancing!!!!

This is my absolute favorite video of yours. I love how much joy and happiness you have watching it. Keep up the great work!

They originally did not know what Jive talkin meant. Their R&B producer, Arif Mardin, explained what it meant so they changed the lyrics to match. Maurice, the bass player in this song, talked about it in an interview. Considering they were relatively new to America they were clueless LOL!

Luv the Bee Gees! "Tragedy" is another awesome song from them 🥰🦋✌

The Bee Gees are a Pandora’s Box to open. If you ever feel like watching a TV concert watch the BeeGees “One Night Only”

100% my fave Bee Gees song. Always puts me in a good mood.

The Bee Gees can and have done it all we will never know how much they contributed to music in whole

“Tragedy” by The Bee Gees won’t disappoint.

Jamal, I'm an old Jewish guy, 70 years old, and I get the biggest enjoyment from your videos. If I could, I'd sit with you for hours listening and watching these old-school songs - we'd have a great time together! All the best to you.

LOVE this reaction! That iconic bass, keyboard and of course those BEE GEE voices, really got y'all groovin' to this one!

The rythme up front came as they were crossing a bridge and hearing the rumble.

I suggest you review " You Should Be Dancing" by the Bee Gees. There's a video, it's funky as sh...!💃✴️🕺🏾

if everyone listened to this to start the day the world would be a happier place

The squeeking rickety noise in begining is from the BeeGees riding in the back of an old pickup on the way to the recording studio. They put in recording from their experience!

There is nothing better than seeing your reactions to songs. I watched this two months ago but doubling back. I saw them in 1979 but not close enough😳. Thank you 🙏

Nights on Broadway!!! You gotta do it!

Bee Gees are timeless, both 60's era and 70's era!!

Bass synth is ridiculously catchy...from Anglo pop rock to this danceable groove...those melodies were always there so props to Arif Mardin and Blue Weaver as well

I watch these things ALOT! I was 9 when this song came out! BLEW MY MIND! FAVE BEE GEE SONG,AND LOVE ALMOST ALL OF EM!!!

One of my prize possessions is this 45 ♥️🎶🎸🎤♥️

"How can you mend a broken heart...". So many great songs and genres from the Bee Gees. Keep your reactions coming - thank you!

The BeeGees put the “ Funk” in Funkadelic! Loved the reaction! All BeeGees songs are off the hook🔥😜

In this time period Jive Talkin' was lying. He is talking about a girl.

I don't know what I enjoy more - listening to all these songs from my childhood, teens and early adult years or watching your reactions. I love watching you move to these songs and you reaction to this one "funky as hell!" Hilarious and spot on!

One of my favorite songs since I was 7. This was their "comeback" song between the 60's BeeGees and the disco BeeGees. It went to #1 if I recall.

Jamal....that was the 70's baby!!! I'd go BACK IN A HEARTBEAT if I could!!! LOVE watchin' you watch the videos too!!!

Jamal love the way you interpret the lyrics in all the songs you have reviewed. You understand the lyrics very well, I'm sure the Beegees would appreciate your reactions and thoughts on there music.

There aren't many ways you can go wrong with the Bee Gees...

The Bee Gees had hits in every decade from the 60s up until the 00s

Just revisiting my favorite reaction. One of the first I watched. Saw Barry on his last tour with his and his brother's children. Beautiful.

I came to find an old video so I could watch Jamel dance. He did not dissapoint!

These brothers could harmonize like only brothers who grew up together can. Love this.

I can’t tell you how many times I dance to this song when I was a teen

they didn't even know what jive talk was at first. I listen to their concerts over and over. They are also very funny.

"I started a joke" is the best song Robin did. His voice could make you cry it is so beautiful.

Another one you'll like is "Nights On Broadway".

My first concert ever was the BeeGees 1979, I was 17. Still have the shirt!

The Bee Gees had a long musical history BEFORE Saturday Night Fever. There were some of us who struggled with their change in musical styles. But they reinvented themselves and blew up.....again.

They were bringing it ❤️💙💙 to you Hey Now 😁😊❤️💙

"Make me wanna put on some platform shoes..." You mean like, "Boogie Shoes?" 😉😊

Check out “To Love Someday,” “Massachusetts,” “How Deep is Your Love,” and so many more that The Bee Gees did. A phenomenal group!

LOVE YOU INSIDE AND OUT!!!!!!!!!!! FROM THE BEE GEES!!!! NEXT ONE TO DO!!!!!!! FUNK HERE TOOOO!!!!!!!

Jive Talkin and You Should Be Dancing are my favs by BeeGees.

Good song! "Love You Inside out" is also a must!

My favorite Bee Gees song, I think. I think it was their first disco hit coming from their folk past

Thank-God I grew up with this music.

If you don't start tapping your foot then dancing listening to this you are a corpse 😂

"Nights on Broadway" a must!

If you like this, then listen to “Tragedy” by them

I could listen to the BEE GEE'S all day Love Barry & Maurice and Robin so much. 💕😘
