"First of May" is also a great song. The banter between Lulu and Tom Jones makes this fantastic! I'm going to see if someone has uploaded the entire show.
I first listened Robin's a started a joke in 1969 when I was 17 now I am 71 ,the everlasting melody is still as vivid as before.. Thank U the Gibbs brothers.. Ur songs have enriched my life all these years
Barry Gibb says in the Bee Gees documentary that he would give up all the group's hits if he could just have his brothers Robin and Maurice back. Well, Barry, your brothers and you are immortal because of those hits, which only the Bee Gees could have delivered so beautifully! God bless you three--and Andy too.
"We don't say goodbye" from their best ever song "Immortality" as so aptly sung by Celine Dion in a tearjerker video production before their losses with the exception of Andy. RIP Maurice, Robin and René. Truer words never spoken.
They wrote some of the most beautiful music ever and carried those songs with three of the most uniquely beautiful voices I’ve ever heard. I love these guys dearly. Don’t know where all that sadness came from..
THE BEE GEES ARE STILL IN MY HEART FOREVER BARRY KNOWS ME WE MET IN 1977 WHEN I WAS 14 AND HE AND I DATED WE WERE EATING OUT AT DIFFERENT RESTURANTS WE HAD FUN EATING TOGETHER
@@stillstanding6031❤❤❤ I am 72 next week and will play them all evening , my Hubby doesn’t get jealous, he has grown to know the words as well as me, Nika via Steph3m
Robin’s beautiful wobbling voice strangles my heart and shakes the tears out with every wavering shake of his vibrato. Never been another singer quite like him.
I'm a big big fan of Robin, I started a joke is one of my favorite songs of them since childhood! I'm 58 now, this song still sounds as beautiful as yesterday ＆ brings back so many memories.
@@TheBrownlj See here you are again, not accepting other people's preferences. Maybe it's you that should just scroll past positive comments about anyone except Barry, I'm certain he doesn't need you or anyone else disrespecting his beloved brothers.
@lindajames978 didn't say anything negative about Robin at all just said it was my least favourite song. It's your problem how you interpret that, not mine.
Robin Gibb your voice is amazing. It always melt my heart and soul. We won't forget you and your brothers. You will always be remembered. Rest in peace beside our Heavenly Father. 🙏
We owe a lot to the Brothers Gibb, we thank them from the bottom of our hearts for us to listen to their Songs and Music. God bless all the Brothers Gibb. Perhaps we will meet at Heavens Door. Peter Keane.
These were beautiful and touching songs. Simple, melodic, lovely. The hair, the style, all 1960’s, so that does not matter to the lens of time looking backward. What does is their incredible talent and harmonies that was such a gift to all of them, and to us all so many years later.
1st of May was a beautiful song. Who knew, that years later long after Lulu and Maurice married & divorced, that they would reunite and sing that same song together as a duet!! Beautiful!! You could tell there was still love between, both of them!! Thank You, for the memories!!
@sharonmoore9934 That was so stunning. That performance took my breath away and had me in tears. It was really beyond touching and to think that it was within a few months and beautiful Mo was gone 😭💔
For those who don't know Maurice Gibb was married to Lulu for four years from 1969 - 1973. Hence the laughter whenever she mentions his name to Tom Jones at the beginning.
*Boomer here: I sincerely hope Gen Z takes away one big lesson from this song. No machine, no computer, no bot will ever top human talent, passion, and creativity. Machines and computers, they can do many things humans can't do. But not the arts, not [real] music. Never lose real music. In a way, you already have. Rap isn't music, it's talking. 60s, 70s, and 80s... that was real music. It changes your mood, your mind, and your thinking. Never give up real music, nothing replaces it.*
Being that I was born mid 50's I know what you're saying but I'll be honest, I just love music. It's subjective imo. Nirvana, James Taylor, Jelly Roll, Elvis, Jackson 5 (RIP Michael) Coolio (gangster paradise*) Nat KIng Cole, Tchaikovsky, Amy Winehouse etc etc. I appreciate that there are Artists for all my moods, mind & thinking.
At least Mo got some attention here.... diligently and beautifully playing the piano out of the spotlight. Thx Lulu. They were fantastic for 5+ decades. ❤ Always missed.
I remember me and my little brother along with my mom and had just gone to the movies to see Rachell Welch in 1 Million years BC...we' were driving back to the house in Ipswitch in England...and this started playing just as we approach the house...my dad just kept driving until the song was over...amazing what sticks in your head...life is good.
Barry Gibb, Tom Jones and Cliff Richards the only 3 male singers who sound as good now as they did when they were younger. (Robin and Maurice if still with us, I have no doubt would be in the same category also).
Bee Gees are an extremely rare exception of vocalists that sound even better when the accompaniment drops out. Normally that reveals weaknesses. But if fine and startling quality is what your voice is really about, it reveals that too.
Robin was the epitamy of a masterful voice. We shall never know all the greatness he could have achieved. He sings and we all sit up and take notice. A life-changing experience. Gone too soon.
I still adore the Beegees ! So talented! On my bestest list from beginning to present, never die!!💕They will always be remembered as one of the best ever….
