Interesting Robin Gibb Vocals, Part 2: 1974 - 2001 

That versatile style, again takes their music to a level no one can ever match. Their innovation, genius creativity with wider sounds changing as heard here in many sophisticated ways that has made their music so very popular.

Their Voices r the Best.

I love their voices and their style as no one has. I need To listen To the Bee Gees every day, specialy in the night, when i am alone. They miss me all of three. I think that their story, since Begining, is really magic and wonderfull. What a beautifull career ! Over 60 years ! The best group of singers for me, whith Thé Beatles and Elvis, of course. They miss me, and hopefully, we have their wonderfull songs. A-M from France

Robing and Mo could composes to but Barr took aii t he creded but later I think he new he wrong and tryd to put it rite he getting on now 77 so he can't do much now in to much pain hope he stays safe and his wife who is her 70 now and looks fin let them spend the rest of the lif in peace xx❤ 6:15

@@lynnchivres4425 - Yes, Robin co-wrote almost all....@90%....of the songs after @1966 when he turned 15....both for the Bee Gees and for other artists WITH Barry (and some alone like "Massachusetts" and "I started a joke") but people think Barry wrote everything and Barry never discouraged that idea. Maurice also helped write many of their songs (and an LP of his own) by finding the right chords and putting Barry and Robin's lyrics and melodies to music. He was the master musician. Robin also wrote 2 LP's in 1969 and 1970 during their split. Robin and Maurice wrote 3 solo LP's for Robin in the 80's, another about a decade later. Robin also wrote a beautiful LP which was released after he died and an orchestral piece "The Titanic Requiem" played by the Philharmonic. Barry said Robin was a very good songwriter.

❤❤❤

I'm a big Mr Natural fan. Kind of the last hurrah of the typical early-70s Robin.

❤❤❤

Possibly my favorite! It's just so hard to choose a favorite!

I really need to watch the Sgt Pepper movie! I've been put off because of the reviews etc but i reckon i need to view it with an open mind and both eyes peeled for darling Robin

Thanks for your comment! I am a big fan of Mr Natural too. I am curious... what is your other favorite Robin lead?

@@beegeesjam Massachusetts. These 3 songs are my favorite Robin lead songs. Of course, I love I Started A Joke and I Gotta Get a Message to You, but these 3 are really my favorites of all my favorites.

Спасибо за Tokyo Night!

100% correct!!!❤❤❤

❤❤❤

Out of the Stratosphere; that's Robin's voice!! I need a daily dose of listening to Robin Gibb singing lead!

❤

❤

Me too...i love his voice....amazing!!!❤❤❤

Muy de acuerdo acertado comentario Robin hermoso con esa voz de Angel te amo Robin ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Me too! A real character too!

@@susieq9801 A long term fan once stated that had it not been for Robin she would not have become A Bee Gee fan. She said that Barry's lead voice, although very good and powerful, would not have been enough to pull her in. That it was Robins stunning voice that drew her to The BeeGees! I Completely AGREE!!😍😎

@@gloriamaryhaywood2217 - The same with me. Barry's voice was good but Robin's was absolutely unique among his peers and when I heard his voice in 1967, I went out and bought the Bee Gees LP. When the group split in 1969, Colin Peterson said the group would not be able to make it without his voice. Interestingly, Colin was fired shortly thereafter.

@@susieq9801 During the Split of '69 I heard that Barry tried to get their manager to *replace* Robin with a dude by the name of Peter somsthing-or-other??🤔 BUT..Stigwood was Smart enough to show Barry and that dude the damn freaking Door!!😉 NO ONE could replace Robin and Stigwood pulled back on his strong-arm tactics to try and force Robin back to the band. He left Robin alone and let him return in his own time and choosing. Smart move on Stigwoods part!😎 And dang, Poor Colin, from what I've been able to learn, it seems that he truly got Screwed Over by the management!??🤐

@@gloriamaryhaywood2217 - Peter Mason. Stigwood stopped it. The band with Vince and Colin was a tight little rocking unit. Loved that incarnation. Of course at the same time DJ's were coerced by Hugh, Robert and "others" not to play Robin's solo work but one DJ, ex Aussie Alan Freeman, did and he had a hit. Robin wrote a tribute to him on "50 St Catherine's Drive" and, in his capacity as President of the British Heritage Society, had a blue historic plaque placed on Freeman's home so we know the stories were true. Dirty dealings against poor Robin.

Miss him terribly❤❤❤

Glad you enjoyed. They will live on forever through their music!

Glad you liked it!

Я до этого тоже писала о прекрасном исполнении 16 летнего Робина "Somewhere" из мюзикла Леонарда Бернштайна. Но запись была стёрта. Здесь есть фанатические ненавистники Робина, которым не интересна музыка и группа Bee Gees. Это наглые, примитивные тролли. Troll.

Как железом по стеклу😅😅😅

Здравствуйте. Хотелось бы чтобы это прочли те, кто начал разговоры о Робине, обвиняя его во всех грехах, недостатках, о его провалах, о его невыразительности и амбициях, не достигших цели. Робин - суперзвезда, стоящая на одном пьедестале и на одном уровне с Барри. Робин больше, чем его внешность, чем его осанка на сцене и больше, нежели его эксцентричность, его искусство вне времени. Ему удалось сохранить свой неповторимый, уникальный голос до конца своих дней. И как это ни удивительно, но у Робина прекрасно получалось, несмотря на его кажущееся внешнее несовершенство, приковывать всеобщее внимание к себе, а не исчезать в тени своего великолепного брата. Взгляд зрителя скользил мимо самого красивого, и уже не мог оторваться от незаурядного. Представьте, такое тоже может быть. Через два года после смерти Робина в одном из интервью, Барри сказал, что петь песни, которые пел Робин, он не будет из уважения к памяти брата. Он не может петь его песни, потому что его голос потерял своё молодое звучание. И он не будет их петь, потому что он, вообще, никогда бы не смог этого сделать, не прежде, не теперь, ему это не дано.

@@user-br4jc3wu3j как красиво написано.,.. какой Барри молодец! Огромное вам спасибо, я не знала об этом! Робин очарователен, конечно. Трогателен и трагичен, величественен и тонок... Тот музыкант, который пел для будущего. Впрочем, все братья Гиббы работали на вечность.

@@user-yq5hs3pc7b Есть

Хотела добавить следующее. Все наши предыдущие дебаты были стёрты. Там много было высказано такого, от чего можно было покраснеть. Я отвечаю за свою резкость и извиняюсь, если кого- то задела. Тот, кто открыл комментарии, а потом стёр все записи, этим своим действием, очевидно, признаёт свою неправоту.

Very nice song😁

Who could that POSSIBLY be, LOL! 🤣

I know...right??

Thanks for your comment! Robin sang lead a lot, more than most people might think, and more than I included in these videos. One reason it might seem like Barry is always the one singing at concerts is that the greatest hits tended to be sung by Barry. But when you look at the albums, there is a much more even division of lead singer. In their official releases as the Bee Gees from 1967-2001, Barry sang 80% of lead vocals, Robin 48%, and Maurice 17%. Stigwood's favoritism of Barry for lead vocalist is certainly a contributing factor to why Robin left. Barry had a more universally marketable sound, while Robin's voice is not for everyone. The record-buying public taught the Bee Gees throughout their career what proportion of BRM leads they preferred, from 100% Barry in Spirits Having Flown to 62%/62%/46% in Idea. Before the breakup, the lead vocals were shared more equally (70%/58%/ 18%). It wasn't a matter of Robin "getting" to sing the songs; the brothers often said that they just naturally felt who was best to sing a particular song, without any ego involved. That said, there are instances of a change in lead vocalist from the demo to the final product, and we can only speculate why. We are all fortunate for the hundreds of Gibb songs we have at our fingertips!

​​@@beegeesjamВы совершенно правы, у Барри универсальный голос и универсальная внешность, которые нравились БОЛЬШИНСТВУ зрителей и слушателей, что очень важно для успеха любого исполнителя. У Робина очень специфический голос и специфическая внешность, которые нравились дааааалеко не всем. Вполне закономерно, что продюссеры группы учитывали прежде всего интересы и вкусы БОЛЬШИНСТВА слушателей. Им нужен был коммерческий успех группы. Тут уж не до сантиментов, не до обиженного и обделенного Робина. Шоу-бизнес вообще жестокая вещь!

@@beegeesjam - Just teasing but you must realise that 80% + 48% + 17% is 145%. That's impossible. 😁

@@susieq9801 Some are shared lead vocals--that's why the sum is above 100%

@@beegeesjamSomeone finally speaking truth & thank you for this! So perfectly said.👍

Very much so ❤

Nope. His own hair. Sometimes he had it in a ponytail.

I really like "Gone with the Wind" too, but I hadn't really discovered it before I made this video. Thanks for your comment!
