Thankyou James.A lovely interview.Rob really couldn't see what all the fuss was about.He was in remission and doing ok at the time.It was the chemo that got too much and then having the second op and pnumonia on top.All his life either ill health or accidents dogged him,but passed him by.I just wish he didn't have to suffer at the end.He was a lovely man.So very loved and he did know that.xLesley
And now his body is free... he will be laughing with his two brothers Maurice & Andy: “Wow that was a great life, all the joy, passion, laughter and pain, we lived every part of it...”. He will always be with us through his beautiful spirit & passion, his music, his voice... and his strength & inspiration. What a stunning man he is. What memories he leaves for us. Love you Robin, you live in the hearts of so many and will never be forgotten. Your music and your essence is eternal ♥️
Bomber Command Memorial is now open,it was a lovely,sunny day but sad because Robin wasn't there.A Lancaster Bomber flew over and shed thousands of poppies.I felt proud and devastated at the same time.Robin we salute you and of course the Bomber boys.xxLesley
I grew up listening to the BeeGees I was very young and I thought Robin was the cutest boy I had ever seen his smile was so cute and I miss him singing but when I heard he had died I could not believe it he has the most beautiful voice and no one will ever take his place I have loved all 3 of BeeGees for ever but Robin is my heart string rest in peace sweetie I love you my angel I will go on listening to you sing as long as I am able
Agree. Robin refused to play victim or even let anyone else put the focus on his illness. He'd always change the subject immediately. And he kept pushing for things that were important to him like the British Bomber Command Memorial, right up to the very end. Robin had a Beautiful heart.
My heart was broken hearing the very ill robin almost near his death. Wish he was given some extension on earth, but that's life. Everything happens for a reason. Thank you for your magical, fantastic, incomparable voice❤
Robin didn't want to stop making music. Barry had to tell him that the dream came true. Oh my...makes me cry....but you can tell listening to him here he is not well. He was a fighter! RIP beautiful Robin. You made so many of us happy with your music and yours and Mo's comedic acts! Love you always and 4-ever!!
As much as l like to claim the Bee Gees as part of Aussie heritage, l have massive respect for Robyn and his love of England and it's history, and making his contribution to having it recognised. l would like to think, that if he was still with us, a University would have been proud to have recognised, this supposedly uneducated man, for how well read he was in UK history.
The most beautiful voice in the world dont sing anymore.Love you so much Robin,my sweatheart.My you rest in piece.You will never bee forgotten.Your music is always in our hearts and memories.My love. 🥀🌹🌹🌷🌷
Robin was such a trooper!...But oh yeah, I can hear how frail he was just in the sound in his voice here alone. Wasn't long after this that Robin finally lost his courageous battle. Yep, that would have been just like Robin to not have understood "what all the fuss was about"..concerning his illness. My heart breaks for this beautiful man....I love him and don't visit these kind of interviews often, ..as it affects me so deeply. I'm sure that I am not alone in that.
I love Robin too.There Will never be someone like him in this world.Its so sad that he is gone.Its huge loss for this world.He was so brave all through his illness ,but i am sure he must have rough days too.R.I,P dear Robin.You Will forever been loved ,and never forgotten.💔
I watched one interview of one of Robin's last television interviews. It was oh so sad. Robin's speech was greatly affected. He was mumbling half the time. It was so painful to watch. He passed away about 7 months later.
"Fit as a fiddle". My poor Robin. This is what I really admire. Not feeling sorry for himself, just kept going till the end. you'll always be in my heart. Most beautiful voice the world has ever heard.
@@susieq9801 Yes. Horrible. As was Robins last performance of 'Singing with the Soldiers.' Heartbreaking to watch for sure. The soldiers are all so strong, fit and healthy looking standing there in a semi-circle with Robin. And there's poor Robin, so very tiny. By this time he was nothing but skin stretched over bones. He looks like a little kid dressed up in his father's clothes or something. That orange jacket just swallowed him up. But one thing Robin had in Spades was Determination. He would not give up or give in. There's a story I heard about how when the Titanic Requium was being debuted, and Barry was with Robin in his hospital room, that Robin was determined to try and attend with Barry. That he somehow got out of the hospital bed but then of course, he collapsed.💔 And I'm told that Robin had a sign placed there welcoming Barry as his Special Guest. Barry didn't attend though. He chose to stay with Robin. And for that I give Barry full credit and a thank you. OMG. Thinking about all this stuff is just too damn SAD.
@@gloriamaryhaywood2217 - SAD doesn't even begin to describe it. The last time I saw him he was at home, a skeleton wrapped in a blanket with his nose dripping and unable to speak. RJ was speaking for him. I don't understand why they let him be seen like that but Robin was determined. That shouldn't even be allowed on the internet. I was a nurse and have seen a lot of dying people and my heart was ripped to shreds seeing him like that. Although it was a natural thing for Barry to want to stay with Robin it was still admirable and to his immense credit. If Robin tried to get up and collapsed, which I could easily believe, it just reinforced my belief that Robin was one helluva gutsy and determined guy. He fought like hell!!! It's just so damn maddening that Robin couldn't hold on for the unveiling of the memorial by the Queen and to see his Requiem performed. He deserved a knighthood and I truly believe he should be awarded one posthumously. To hell with the rules. He DESERVED it!
Impossible to choose a favourite Gibb. All four men were so very gifted and special in their own ways. We are so fortunate that they shared so much with us all.
Corajoso até o fim. Inspiração e incentivo para todos nós! Um homem admirável sob todos os aspectos. Um artista inigualável! Além de tudo, amou e honrou sua Pátria.
Dear Robin, you are so brave and strong. I can hear in your voice that you aren't your normal self, although you are pretending to be. I hate it that you suffered so like George Harrison., who also died of cancer. George was a great talent too. Robin, you had the best voice I have ever heard. You also had so much talent composing different kinds of music. I miss you, my love. Rest In Peace with George. You two can make beautiful music together. ❤️🌹❤️
Robin should have stayed at home to fully recover as he had no immune system. Instead he went to Germany and other places almost immediately . No wonder he picked up major infections so easily.
@@josephspiano4427 , He probably knew he wasn’t going to be around much longer. I had cancer, and I tried my best to be my normal self. I didn’t want the kids to worry. How he got all that energy, I don’t know. He did overdo it.
@@patriciabarkley735 Yes that is understandable . He was told 2 years earlier he needed to have further scans after he had bowel surgery 2010. Robin did not want to know because he was fearful of what would be found. So sad as I just loved his Surperb voice
My uncle was part of Bomber Command, a Pathfinder and was shot down over Germany aged 28yrs. Thank you Robin for honouring all those thousands of men who died. I will be laying a wreath at the Beachy Head memorial near to where I live and I will leave roses for you too xx
Dorothy Scarth Robin said that his contribution to the Bomber Command Memorial was the thing he was Most proud of in his life. ..More than all the awards and accolades he'd received over his lifetine for his music. Robin totally believed in that campaign and stayed committed to it. So glad he got to view it from scaffolds before he passed ...which was shortly before it opened to the public. I've seen pics of Robin up on that scaffold gazing at the magnificent sculptures...and the expression on Robins face says it all!! Rest in Peace, Robin....You ARE Missed.
My uncle was in Bomber Command and shot down in 1941 and a prisoner for 4 years. We are so grateful to you Robin for your fight to honour these brave men, made more special as you were fighting your own battle. A truly special, unique man who is sorely missed.
This was very hard to listen to, knowing this interview was just 3 months before Robin's passing. It is clear he was not "fit as a fiddle". His voice was very frail and words were slurred, nothing like his normal voice, which was always clear, concise, and he enunciated his words perfectly. In another interview I saw earlier, with his son, RJ, discussing their work on Titanic Requiem, he looked 20-30 years older and looked very weak. His body and head were drooping, as if unable to support his body upright. He kept working until the end. I wished he had slowed down and rest his body to allow it to fight the disease. He might have lived longer. He was, clearly, dying. But he didn't want anyone to know. Even Barry didn't know until he saw pictures of Robin, and quickly went to be by his side. Barry sang the song "End of the Rainbow" to Robin, as he laid unconscious in bed. He said he didn't know if Robin heard him or not. It was very sad. I am glad Robin is no longer in pain and reunited with his other half, Maurice, baby brother, Andy, and his parents.
How strong was Robin in this interview..... he never gave up.... 3months later he was gone from all our lives. Miss you Robin.... like you will never know.xxxxxx
Nice soul forever he and his brothers are all. Let’s not forget he’s human and not immortal,get sick do make wrong decisions in his younger years etc like all of us.
he wasnt as fit as a fiddle though he was frail in from 2010 onwards- till he died. he had several illnesses bless him. people say that he knew about his illness but ignored because he was scared of the outcome.
Robin sounds so ill and tired in this interview. I still miss his voice but know he's with his brothers so I wouldn't want him to still be here and in pain. God bless him and his family.
Maybe he was in denial or the doctors didn't detect how bad the cancer was. To me remission doesn't mean cured. He had colon and Liver cancer. Liver cancer is very painful while the cancer is eating up your liver. When your liver isn't fuctioning correctly it cause Kidney failure. Sadly the Kidney failure cause the pnumonia. Same thing happened to a deaar friend of mine and my mother had the liver cancer and such pain.
The fact is, he was terminal at the time of this interview.. He even kept it from family.. A magazine released pics of Robin that brought into question his health. Subsequently, Barry took this picture to his Dr , & Barry's Dr suggestion he go see him immediately because the Dr belived , from the picture, that Robin was critically ill... Barry barely got there before he died.. In fact, he was so near death that Robin was unable to talk & died within a few hours.
Глупо скажу я всем , имея деньги и не хотеть вылечится ! Ведь можно было раньше обратится к врачам и очень много людей на ранней стадии излечивались от рака ! Он просто не имел права плевать на свое здоровье , ведь понимал какой он талант , и сколько ещё мог написать красивых песен !!! Я его очень уважаю и люблю ! Но не люблю тех кто опускает руки и сдается !!!!!
