The BEE GEES MORE THAN A WOMAN REACTION - I used to think this was a TAVARES song exclusively 

Anything by the Bee Gees is good. Anything.

Remember that Barry also wrote the song "Grease" for Frankie Valli on the movie Grease.

It’s hard not to like The Bee Gees. Great song! Thanks for your reaction.

I’ll say this again the Bee Gees could sing the phonebook and make it sound fantastic.

Bee Gees may be the best ever in terms of achieving the best harmony in music.

The Bee Gee's actually wrote it FOR Tavares in mind to record, but they did go on to record it themselves, too, later. Plus, it was used in the movie. MANY of the songs they wrote were started out with, "Let's write _____'s next #1 hit." And Barry found his falsetto voice, that he uses in this song, when he did "Nights on Broadway". Michael Jackson and Barry Gibb recorded a song together called "In His Name". Barry's son, Michael, is named for MJ, and MJ was his Godfather.

This is a Tavares song! The Bee Gees wrote several songs for the Saturday Night Fever Soundtrack. One of those songs was recorded by Tavares for the soundtrack as well. The version by Tavares was released by the record company and it was a hit on the Soul, Pop and Disco Charts. When the record company decided to release the version by The Bee Gees while the version by Tavares was still making it up the charts, The Bee Gees called the management and told them to stop their release so the version by Tavares could get maximum sales. The Bee Gees had a lot of heart to pull what easily could have been their next #1 hit from the soundtrack! It remained unreleased as a single.

Bee Gees wrote over a thousand songs and many of them were for others.

BEE GEES ARE A FANTASTIC GROUP

The greatest group of all time by a long way.

Bee Gees gave Yvonne Elliman their song "If I Can't Have You" to sing, which charted #1 and is part of the Saturday Night Fever score. They also gave Samantha Sang "Emotion" which went to #1 in the charts, which later was covered by Destiny's Child. Bee Gees (mainly Barry Gibb) produced Diana Ross' album Eaten Alive which contained a song with same title (Michael Jackson collaborated with the Bee Gees) The number that was the single from that album is "Chain Reaction" by the Bee Gees in the style of Ross's Supremes records. Then in the same decade that Barry produced albums and wrote songs for Streisand and Ross-- Barry and his Brothers wrote and produced "Islands in the Stream" for Kenny Rogers and Dolly. .. The best-selling song of all time in Country Western history. Barry produced Roger's album Eyes That See in the Dark, and wrote songs for it besides its single "Islands". Then, of course, there is Celine and "Immortality." Barry has won Grammy Producer awards, as well as for a handful of top-charting single for other artists, including the youngest sibling Andy Gibb, who was a very good songwriter on his own. Oh, and Barry wrote and suggested Frankie Valli sing the title song to the movie "Grease" which went to #1. Check out Nina Simone's , as well as Janis Joplin's, cover of the Bee Gees' "To Love Somebody" . Also Elvis covered Barry's "Words" in his Vegas concerts-- He loved that song!

The Bee Gees wrote it, so they knew exactly how it should sound to make everyone want to love it. Their talent for music, just incredible, writing, singing, and playing various instruments too. They worked with so many other artists. If you look for all the covers, you'll have a long list, huge. People have been recording their music since they were kids and just starting out. Please play more of their music.

This song was a hit for The Bee Gees and Tavares at about the same time. That just show how great a song this is when it can be played on the radio by 2 different groups and people still can't get enough of it.

The best three part harmony in the world!

Superb reaction and all I can say is keep reacting to many more of the Bee Gees. They go back to 1960s to 1990s. Now only Barry is alive, the others passed unfortunately. One song that I recommend is Massachusetts (live version).

The only reactors that I listen to are those that play a lot of Bee Gees. Just because they’re my all-time favorite and I can’t explain what the music does to me. It does something to my soul and someone that has struggled with depression and anxiety, listening to them cures me in every way I’m just in all of their talent. They are not only wonderful musicians and songwriters, but they’re good human beings too which makes it better for me.

Harris, anything these brothers do turns to gold. Thank God I found their music. I've been in love with mo & always will love him. 💔💔💔💔💔💔💔

Definitely, this original version is my favorite . The distinct sound of the bee gees and the harmonies are heavenly.

When I heard this as a kid, I thought they were saying "Four Letter Woman", meaning that they liked women who swore a lot. I was a weird kid :/

Talent incarnate

When you read the lyrics of this song, it is really beautiful!

Tavares did a great job with this song, so no shame in liking that version.

bee gees if i can't have you

Still can't get over how much groove is in that hi-hat...

I remember when this came out and Tavarres sang it, they did a great job but I’m partial to the BeeGees!❤️

A bee gees classic, penned by the bee gees.

I was a teen when this song was released but only learned a about 10 years that it was never released as a single in the U.S. this was surprising because of how often I heard it on top 40 radio. It was in regular rotation for a very long time.

This song was written by the Bee Gees 1977 for the movie Saturday Night Fever. They recorded their own version, but also had Tavares do it. Both versions were used in the movie and on the soundtrack, but the Tavares version was released as a single, peaking at #32 in America on May 6, 1978, the same week "Night Fever," another Bee Gees song from the film, was at #1. Tavares were backstage at a Madison Square Garden show when the Bee Gees asked them to record the song.

Not sure if somebody suggested this yet but ' To love somebody ' is a heavily covered song by the Beegees. One of my favorites.

The Foo Fighters are doing BeeGees covers right now, and released one cover recently.

Most of what the BeeGees write and sing is pretty great! Their influence is found in so many artist’s music, including Michael! If you haven’t listened to Nights on Broadway, it’s really good and Barry uses more of a baritone register. Also the song he discovered his falsetto- although I think Maurice sings falsetto in the live version which is great!

The Saturday Night Fever is amazing. I still have my vinyl copy from 77.

The fab BGs wrote all their 🎵songs sooooooooo amazingly gifted...alot of artists took their songs n sang them...

Harri, the Bee Gees didn't just write and sing this song, they had a big hit with it. Checking out covers to Bee Gees songs might be fun but you should really check out their music from 1967 to around 1975. There's a treasure of music there.

"Words" is a Beegees song covered by Elvis when he returned to live performances in 69-70. There's an audio version from 69 and a video version from 70. Both are magnificent.

All In Your Name is the song Barry Gibb and Michael Jackson recorded together. Great song.

Hes gifted

Love your reactions and really do appreciate you keeping your language appropriate when so many reactors don’t; condolences on England’s loss in your football( soccer to us yanks😊 ) championship match( if that is what it was ). I also happen to think that your voice is lovely; are you a professional singer as well? You imitate Barry beautifully.👍👍

other songs written by the Bee Gees to check out: if i can't have you - Yvonne Elliman Heartbreaker - Dionne Warwick Emotion - Samantha Sang All the songs on Barbra Streisand albums "Guilty" and Guilty Pleasures"

You must get SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER THE BEST MOVIE SOUNDTRACK EVERin my opinion I DANCED AT MY HS PROM, my wedding my daughters’ weddings and one day with God’s help my nieces and my granddaughters weddings #Peace and #Love

Destiny’s child did a cover their song Emotion, Boyzone did How deep is your love. But Barry’s favorite cover was Al Green’s How do you mend a broken heart. Thr Diana Ross, Dionne Warwick, Kenny Rogers, Barbara Striesand and Celine Dion songs were written for them. ❤❤❤❤

I seem to recall reading somewhere that the BeeGees wrote more than 1,000 songs that charted. But sometimes they could tell that their own performed version could be improved upon... Also at one time I think they had become so dominant in the Pop charts that listeners were getting a little tired of their music always playing on the radio - maybe?

The Bee Gees gave this song to the Tavares to sing , sent Tavares their demo tape to show how their song could sound. Then the Bee Gees's own version was used in the Saturday Night Fever movie as decided by the film's producers.

As good as the day it hit the airwaves.

Harri my man, excellent review, let’s not talk football cheers 😂🤷🏼‍♂️👍🏼💔

You have a good Falsetto voice yourself! Digging it dude!

Oh yes they became friends , badass

So sorry for your loss.

check out their song too much heaven if you want to hear his really high pitch

Good point on the “you got me working day & night” lyric and MJs song later. Also happened with the lyrics “Blaming it all, on the Nights on Broadway” BGs wrote in 1975, the MJ did ‘Blame it on the Boogie” in 1978. The BeeGees influenced everybody!

Barry has a low chest voice. Check out Nights on Broadway, if you haven’t already 😎

Play the music, they will come!

Love to view people who love music. Subscribing to you

HELLO HARI HOPE YOU ARE WELL

Please do Lonely nights next it's so great with the vocals!!! BTW for every frown in England there is a smile in Italy! Viva Italy

Boy, by now, Barry had mastered that falsetto. Yawwwsssuuuhh!!!!

Hi Harri , how are you , oh no , im so sorry , I know the feeling , yes Sir , drag me out hun 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 🤍💗💖💯🤗🥰 , you know these guys , always perfect , lovely ,feel better soon ok , bless you ☺🌴🌴🌴🌈✨✨✨✨

Tavaras for the win!

You lived under a rock

Harri. The song Lonley Days by the Bee Gees is one of my favs by them. Please listen to that one.

Sounds like you can hit those high notes as well. Good points regarding the connection between Michael Jackson and The Bee Gees. I was in tears after the England loss, too. I’ll have to listen to the version of this song you’re more familiar with.

So sorry about your team. The Bee Gees wrote so many great songs. For others as well as themselves.

Come on Over was covered by Olivia Newton John. A brilliant song and Love me. It was covered by a female group in the 80s but I can'tremember who it was.

Musical geniuses 🎼🎼🎶

It's not easy in singing such level of falsetto.From the documentary,we know that its hard to achieve it and it quite harmful to the throat and voice... However our great Barry tried to overcome every obstacle in their musical journey....to make later spectacular Bee Gees musical era🎉🎉😊❤

It’s probably been mentioned, but “Emotion” by Samantha Sang is a must listen! Written by The Gibbs and released around the time as these SNF songs. It went to #2, held up, I’m sure, by another Gibb song.

Love both versions, but there was a time back in the late 70's when I preferred the Bee Gees version because they mostly played the Tavares version on the radio. Now I mostly hear the Bee Gees version, so I have a fondness for the Tavares version because my memories of my childhood are tied in with that. Have you heard "A Penny for your Thoughts" by Tavares. It's a great song.

Working day and night is a pretty common expression used in everyday language for years and years, so it may just be coincidence. I'm 60, so I've heard it used in other songs and people just speaking going way back. Now a days people say working 24/7. Haha

Elvis actually sang "Words" written by The Bee Gees

Music is healing. Exactly Harri!

If you do your homework, the brothers had most of the songs already written before Robert Stigwood approached them for SNF. They gave this song to Tavares, but, there's was the song they danced to on SNF. THEY DIDN'T RELEASE IT,HELL, THEY didn't have to everyone bought the sound track. They where afraid of over exposure, which did happen. They had 5 songs on the top 10. LOVE THE BEE GEES!

Barry has a faucito voice , very unique .

❤❤❤❤

Leonid & Friends

Watching from Texas. Cheers Harri, another brilliant video. I too was disappointed that England didn't bring it home. But they played VERY well! Next time! Love and happy thoughts from 5000 miles away. Xx

Watch the documentary about The Bee Gees you will learn a lot about them.

One of my favorite tunes by The Bee Gees And Tavares!

Torquay holiday 1978, remember hearing the song in a night club and purchased the album when I got home. Still got it

You got such great taste in music 😃

"Emotion" by Samantha Sang was written by the Bee Gees.

On your own, you need to check out the "Saturday Night Fever" soundtrack. As well as both versions of this song, but you the extended version of the Tramp's "Disco Inferno".

Songs that sound like Bee Gees (but are not Bee Gees): "Suddenly" by Olivia Newton John and Cliff Richard; "Not Gonna Be The One" by Olivia Newton John; "Magic" by Olivia Newton John; "Better Love Next Time" by Dr Hook; "You Make Me Feel Like Dancing" by Leo Sayer; "Couldn't Get It Right" by Climax Blues Band; "The Best Of Me" by David Foster and Olivia Newton John; 'Alone Again (Naturally)" by Gilbert O'Sullivan

Procal Harum live in Denmark 2006

They wrote almost the whole Saturday night fever album. I believe if I can't have you was another they wrote but I think yvonne Elliman who sang it on the soundtrack

Another great Tavares song is Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel, would be a good reaction.

Speaking of covers of the Bee Gees songs, you should check out Al Green's cover of their song, "How Can You Mend A Broken Heart"

Thanks for this one.

Beegees I grew up with❤and Yes our England lost boooooo Xx but you cheer me up❤

Smile , You are loved

Bee Gees wrote and gave their songs to some famous singers, like : Woman in love & Guilty : Barbra Straisand Emotion : Samantha Sang The Love of A Woman : Samantha Sang How Can You Mend A Broken Heart : Al Green If I Can't Have You : Yvonne Elliman Love Me : Yvonne Elliman More Than A Woman : Tavarez Grease : Frankie Valli Hold On To My Love : Jimmy Ruffin Carried Away : Olivia Newton John Heart Breaker : Dionne Warwick You And I : Kenny Rogers Island in the stream : Kenny Rogers & Dolly I love being in love with you : Diana Ross Chain Reaction : Diana Ross Immortality : Celine Dion

I’m pretty sure not many people are aware of Jordan Hill - Too Much Heaven. She even does a Mariah Carey like high note 😉

You need to listen to the Bee Gees version of "Heartbreaker" then listen to Dionne Warwick version.

They never did disco...they wrote all those songs for an album & their manager asked them. If they had any song for this small movie ..he was doing..they refused @ 1st..but gave in to Robert Stigwood in the end..well the rest is history so the BGs never did the songs for disco..the movie ended up being a fanominam earth wide...records selling .millions!!!❤...

Listen to Eaten Alive! Diana Ross ft. Michael Jackson and the Bee Gees! It's the perfect Combination between Jackson and Bee Gees Style

Yes Saturday Night Fever the movie wasn't initiated as big a hit as Grease. I much prefered Saturday Night Fever album because of the Bee Gees and the other artists music. I was introduced to a young John Travolta struts his stuff on and off the dance floor, he starred in Grease a year later. 👌

I love your reaction channel! Thanks for covering "More Than a Woman." Destiny's Child covered "Emotion"-- as did one-hit wonder (guess what hit) Samantha Sang's #1 original. The Bee Gees gave her that song. You can list to the Bee Gees' version at: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Xk2UrBlRgl4.html

Don't forget Conway Twitty's "Rest Your Love On Me"

I just checked this out Candi Statin covered Nights on Broadway originally done by The Bee Gees Yes am blaming this all on those crazy, crazy nights lol

Tavares also sang this song on the soundtrack. I like this version much better.

……both recorded at basically the same time-ish… Both are awesome. Different from each other but stand out in their own right. I just can’t choose. Luckily I don’t have to… Lol
