Bee Gees - Too Much Heaven (Official Music Video)-REACTION VIDEO

[@Mrcool19771]

Sir. This is the greatest group of all time! I'm a 61 year old black man. Have heard every genre in these 61 years . And no one is better than this group ! Trust me . I'm a musician and former deejay.

[@proudgram61]

You are so right!!!! They are the best of the best, on so many levels!!

[@dgodfrey8953]

i'm right there with you

[@michellejackson6679]

I'm a 54 yr old white woman.. and to me the Bee Gee's were everything...

[@leannewilson7184]

What was great about the Bee Gees is they were for every one, black or white- didn’t matter. 🙋🏻‍♀️

[@Pamsmith59]

And the Bee Gees have explained that they consider themselves R&B and even Bluegrass and that's the direction they wanted to pursue. Otis Redding was one of their greatest influences. But their record company stopped them saying they couldn't make it in that niche. Well, they've made it now for 50 years with people from every sector newly discovering and loving them. Personally glad I got on the bus in the early 70's and have enjoyed them since.

[@BGWhisperer]

When people think the Bee Gees they’re thinking Barry’s voice. His voice is their signature. Their harmonies as well.

[@kthor]

So true!

[@lydiabugner6437]

This is the most perfect love song ever and this was from 1978. And they wrote the music, the poetry of their lyrics, the arrangements for the orchestra and then they sing it. And they did this for all the songs they recorded or sang and also wrote songs for other artists like Ceiine Dion, Barbra Streisand, Michael Jackson, Diana Ross, Dione Warwick, and a lot more. All this with no formal music or voice training. No auto tune here. All the harmonizing is natural and not forced and it is all their voices. No one sounded like them or will ever sound like them again. They were the whole package. Listen to their song "Alone" which was done in the late 90s and please pay attention to the video that it goes with that shows some of their old home movies growing up together in Australia and when they first returned to England to get into the recording industry. And Barry is the only one left after Maurice and Robin have both died and now he is alone but recording with Maurice's daughter and his own son and touring. Reply

[@marlafowler3543]

Barry Gibb.... holy crap, your talent is in another stratosphere. The softness and control of those perfect little runs, leave people in awe still to this day.

[@rosiebuys254]

🙌🫶🙌

[@bethjoyner3727]

The Bee Gees donated all the proceeds from this song to UNICEF! Kind of unheard of during that time but they raised millions from this song alone. These guys were huge humanitarians. I can't say enough wonderful things about these talented men who came from very humble beginnings. Barry is the last one living but thanks to youtube, we can enjoy these fabulous songs and beautiful harmonies indefinitely. Thank you Bee Gees.

[@user-st6nt4ou6f]

Barry said his dad was a big fan of the Mills Brothers, a trio of African American men in the 1940s. They started out singing in that mode. Interesting. They Are truly phenomenal. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@marie-christinescutt7888]

I am still in love with them , voices, harmonies, songs I am 65 and I still love them all

[@LadyGator1983]

Barry’s falsetto is the bomb!!! Barry, Maurice & Robin harmonize like no one else I’ve ever heard!!!!

[@Christobanistan]

Probably helps a lot that they're brothers.

[@marilynlotz7845]

Priceless reaction. 💝💝💝BeeGees!

[@gregpek1624]

This was one of three BeeGee hits conceived and substantially written in one afternoon.

[@nighthawkde]

This song truly shows the glory of the Bee Gees and their amazing voices. I grew up with their music, saw them in concert and their voices are pure magic. There will be no one like them again. RIP Robin and Mo. You are truly missed.

[@1InvisionProductions]

Heaven on earth... Nobody will ever sound as good as the Bee Gees

[@bluesky-rb8fn]

Bottom line super talented!!! Plus I love when poor folks make it big!! Soar with the angels Andy, Mo and Robin!!❤️

[@kathystammen3060]

In my opinion this song is a true masterpiece. I love to watch Barry’s face when he’s singing the song it’s like he puts his heart and soul into every word. There’s no other group like the Bee Gees there never will be. I’ve always said they could sing the phonebook and it would sound like perfection.

[@cathyopthof8136]

This is Barry’s favorite song!

[@BGWhisperer]

@@cathyopthof8136His favorite song changes every time someone asks him.

[@petergrant2810]

The GOAT group

[@QuantumG432]

I get a kick out of the younger generation as they hear real music of the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s. Way better than todays music and still like todays music, but nothing truly compares.

[@donnafackerell8316]

Nobody has ever had a voice like Barry Gibb and his two brothers

[@catlady443]

Andy Gibb - He was going to join the group, but died before it happened. Ther is a video of the 4 of them singing live at a concert. "You Should be Dancing"

[@ScottPothan]

As a teenager raised in Sydney in the 1960’s I knew of the BeeGees they were on television a lot. They were Aussie musical hero’s already. By the ‘70’s they were leading my crazy London and NY dance club life of disco. By the ‘80’s they were writing for serious artists like Diana Ross Barbara Streisand and Dionne Warwick- then they moved into serious resonating ballads in the ‘90’s. There’s no question there’s one group only who were the soundtrack to my life. To many of our lives. It wasn’t the Beatles. It was the Bee Gees. They are gods of musicality

[@bettybrown5011]

Amen!

[@karieshumaker4783]

💯👍😁👍

[@LizzieRD]

Im with you there. Raised in oz in the 50s, 60s and 70s. Loved this group then. My first Single wish was Wine and Women. Found it on the Bee Gees site a couple of weeks ago.

[@debbienedeloff9473]

100%

[@drchrisheidelberg]

It's the brothers unique voice harmony that only the Jacksons rival in my opinion. Andy Gibb the youngest was a great solo artist who died too soon

[@jennifertaylor6197]

This song was written for Unicef and all of the proceeds are donated to the children. To this day has raised millions. This song rose to #1 in the US and Canada, #3 in the UK and was 4 of the 6 consecutive #1 hits equaling a record set by Elvis Presley.

[@bertc2314]

Thanks for the info.

[@paulauvray1962]

No ! is been written for they reunification after there break up 😉

[@aquariaaustin2077]

Complete bollocks about writing it for UNICEF. This song came out in 1975. In 1978 the Bee Gees announced that they would donate the proceeds of their next single to UNICEF. That song was Too Much Heaven. It wasn't written for UNICEF, but simply a song for their album, Spirits Having Flown. They wrote it when they were bored during a lull in filming Sgt Pepper's. At least try to get one bloody fact correct so that you look less like a dishonest wanker.

[@BGWhisperer]

It wasn’t written for them, but they gave it to them.

[@kthor]

⁠@@aquariaaustin2077Think most your info is correct, except it certainly didn't come out in 1975, but late '78.

[@maryannashenfelder5513]

when music was really music, no audio tune, either you had it or you didn't, not the nonsense today, how many now could just sing with there raw voices?!!! 69yrs old here.

[@haroldlee1989]

Their talent & abilities were God given; they used their voices in such a brilliant way

[@aquariaaustin2077]

No, they weren't. There's zero evidence for psychopathic scumbags in the sky. They could sing because they had the privilege of having parents who could afford to let them study music, especially at a young age, and then they worked their asses off for the rest. No genocidal space buddy necessary.

[@kayjohnson8377]

As beautiful as the song is, the BeeGees are wonderful men. They gave this song to UNICEF children’s charity and they have never received one cent of royalty moneyfrom it.

[@user-st6nt4ou6f]

Truly kind and generous

[@yuewenb]

Wow! The harmonies were Heavenly! And the way Barry scaled up around 5 ranges toward the end was unbelievable! This song and "How deep is your love" by the Bee Gee's are some of my very favorite songs, top 4 easy.

[@joelellingson679]

what a gift to this planet!!

[@proudarmymom8657]

RIP Andy, Maurice and Robin 💔

[@natashyahendrix2]

It amazes me how he has a natural vibrato while singing falsetto.

[@saturnnet1627]

This part of his amazing falsetto is often over looked.

[@13chigrl]

They actually harmonize in Falsetto Vibrato. Now THAT is something nobody else has done since.

[@TinyFreya59]

@@saturnnet1627 I think it’s overlooked because the listener is simply stunned into silence by it’s beauty. 😆😆

[@rosiebuys254]

Falsetto & Barry's vibrato leaves me speachless. Its super heavens❤goosbums ❤

[@seanjohnson6186]

Actually there aren’t usually problems with copyrights with the BeeGees. I guess they figure they are rich enough. I also know Barry (the only one still living) doesn’t want their music to be forgotten, so he doesn’t inforce the copyright rules for reactions.

[@bettyartis3648]

They also gifted the royalties to Unicef forever

[@kangaroojack7678]

The greatest trio in music history

[@richelmore6286]

I appreciate your review on The Bee Gees. Always been my favorite group. I’m 68. Followed them many years and glad to see younger generations appreciate great talent. Love your honest and humble opinion, great job! Try their song “ Love So Right”. Thank you.

[@paulauvray1962]

The music was very good at this time in the 70's nothing compare today 🤔 i was 22 when they sing this song thank you to you bee gees love you for ever 😍

[@cathyopthof8136]

Dear Pat! The Bee Gees Are extraordinary!!! The Lead singer is Barry. His chest voice is lower, but he does most of the falsettos. Robin is usually in the middle. I don’t know what to say about him except for that he has the most unusual, mellow voice, and has the most amazing vibrato on earth! Maurice( believe it or not) is my favorite. He is sooo freakin handsome, the sharpest dresser, he’s hilarious. He actually arranges all of the music, because he can hear every note, and knows where it goes. He often sings the falsettos that you think are Barry. He plays every instrument possible. Without Maurice...there would be no Bee Gees!❤❤❤

[@susancobb901]

Glad to see you appreciate Barry's falsetto and the harmony of the three brothers. You can never never go wrong with the Bee Gees.

[@whostosay3256]

Classic Bee Gees - phenomenal voices and harmonizing

[@danmaher7947]

Thank you for not pausing the video every 5 seconds like some do!

[@kathieovercash8414]

I'm so grateful I grew up in this era. Fun fact. None of them ever learned to read and write music.

[@AlamoDame7]

These Brothers Gibb give 100% in their performance, song-writing, production, etc. Such professionalism and P A S S I O N. I listen to their music every day-- one song or several. A part of my day-to-day routine.

[@toodlescae]

They, Barry especially, make it look so easy.

[@M-10VisualDistributions]

Great reaction Bro...I agree their harmony is some serious....Bee Gees one of the most successful pop groups of all time with more than 200 million records sold. No copy cats because no one else can match their harmony without auto tune. I guess being real brothers does have an advantage growing up singing together all the time.

[@troypolk1156]

This is also Barry's personal favorite. Hard to imagine with all of the songs they have done not only for theirselves but for other artists as well. It is also my favorite 🙃

[@bobr4987]

You should do their song, "Fannie Be Tender With My Love". Very melodic with even more falsetto, but also Barry's mid range voice comes through.

[@lisasmithline1386]

Thank you, Bob; I've been recommending that song to these reaction guys. Funny that my mom had that album when I was a kid ( I was born in 68 and my mom was born in 51), and I got tired of her playing that album so much back in the 70s.

[@dimpleface2163]

This has always been my cut....this is blue-eyed SOUL!

[@catlady443]

More than Legendary, More than GOAT. They have the very rare quality of creating magic from music.

[@kmwwrench]

Some of the best cheek-to-cheek slow-dancing music from my youth. This is my first time at your channel. So happy to see someone your age appreciate this music. Just as a side note, you have a pretty wonderful voice yourself. Very velvety and soothing.

[@Tairaterces]

Go to Wikipedia and look for the song "Too Much Heaven" ---- The Bee Gees donated all the sales proceeds to UNICEF to help all of the children of the world which totaled $17 million ------ May God Bless them all - Barry - Robin - Maurice

[@michelleheimbuch6322]

I still get chills when I hear this song! I was a 16 yr old girl when this came out all my friends and I had the"hot's" for Barry 😄

[@brendajones9321]

Their approach to songwriting was unique ...they first composed all the music & then the lyrics were written, without changing any of the music. Maurice [pronouced:"Morris"]/Mo was the musical & harmonic genius; Barry was main lyricist & lead singer; & Robin also sang lead, with his one-of-a-kind voice. The BeeGees had an almost 50-year career & were only stopped by Mo's tragic & totally unnecessary death.

[@sfkeepay]

Refreshing to hear someone give credit to all three brothers…they all really are truly amazing. And by the way, your presentation is FANTASTIC. I’ve seen far more of these reaction videos than anyone should have times ten, but this is the first time any of them has mixed commentary with the specific examples about which they are speaking. It’s really very clever, and I bet you this approach will become a benchmark for reaction content. It works really, really well. Exceptional work!

[@lydmarl.475]

Every time Barry get to the part where he repeats love, love. love, love, wow my heart melts!!!!

[@LillyMarz777]

Yes.

[@iahelcathartesaura3887]

The BeeGees are awesome, so nice to see you younger folks discover & react to them! And you have a wonderful speaking voice, I could listen to you talk all day. I hope you do some ASMR videos. They would be a great success!

[@markr.devereux3385]

The Bee Gees harmonised so beautifully together. They were probably my favourite group at that time. Massachusetts is another wonderful song by them, with Robin as lead singer. Another great song is Words. Living in New Zealand, & the Bee Gees being an Australian group, they were on the radio & on television a lot, & I loved their music. Great Reaction. Thanks.

They began singing together as kids, and by 1966 they began singing publicly whenever they could. They had that magical music harmony only family members who sing together have.

[@debortahwelch9298]

I LOVE that you are enjoying THE BEEGEES, their voices are made to go together but to really KNOW them you need to listen to each brother's voice. Maurice "Man in the Middle" for one, Robin "I told a Joke". And of course Barry. RIP Robin and Maurice. Thank you for the beautiful music.

[@awordfrompresidentpat1985]

Noted. I will for sure check those songs out. Bee Gees are one of the latest acts that I discovered late in life but truly enjoying the journey. These guys are for sure one of the greatest in any genre of music.

[@jackiesteele5024]

This is MY music!! Back then, you HAD to be able to sing, you had to have a voice, talent. Didn't have what they have today to make the voice sound better. Just natural talent. They were some of the best, in a category of their own. Thanks for a great reaction!!

[@kathleenmayhorne3183]

I heard a quote from a recording technician, he said Barry wanted to add something to a recording, from out of his head, but hadn't rehearsed it beforehand. He went in and did the track, just as he wanted it, they asked for a few more takes, and he did them all exactly the same way, note perfect. When the tracks were all put together, it worked beautifully without adjustments. I may not have this exactly right, there are interviews on you-tube and a documentary on this.

[@MaginFlaBlueChoice]

Beautiful natural harmony, EPIC VOICES!! RIGHTEOUS BROTHERS “You’ve lost that loving feeling”. The range, the harmony, known as a “panty dropper” …….it absolutely is too!!

While in the studio recording Nights on Broadway, their manager told them they need more in the background and asked them to scream. When they did they were shocked and realized their falsetto with vibrato:) Listen to How Deep Is Your Love and How To Mend A Broken Heart.

[@1969madame]

Bee Gees are my favorite group of all time. I've been a fan since the 1970s, and it warms my heart when young people recognize them and their God-given gifts. (I still cry every single time I hear this song). Barry, Robin (RIP), and Maurice (RIP) are forever a part of the fabric of my life. I love your channel (subscribed) and am impressed by your professional demeanor, analysis, and presentation. Keep up the good work.

[@ArlynMeylan-jo7hq]

There is no one like them beutifull soulful ❤😊

[@cathyopthof8136]

You’re right! They all have their own type of perfection! What one cant do, the others can!!

[@dortheychastain2195]

It's like they invented harmony. Live band, no auto tune, no computerized voice enhancement and one mic for all three of them. Back then (1979). singing was just pure, raw talent. By the date of this recording, the BeeGees had already been singing together professionally for 21 years when Barry was 12 years old and the twins were just 9. All of the Gibb brothers including little brother, Andy, could sing in that amazing falsetto voice. But Barry was the master. He was able to exorcise more control over it. The Gibbs were, in my opinion, the most multi-talented families in music history. They wrote their own songs as well as writing songs for many other musical greats.This song was included on a compilation album to benefit UNICEF. There were many artists who recorded songs on the album, but the BeeGees gave all the royalties from this song in any form. In, at that time, an unprecedented move, they also gave UNICEF the publishing rights to Too Much Heaven. To date, Too Much Heaven has raised over 11 million dollars for UNICEF. In 1967, they wrote a song called To Love Somebody which appeared on their third album titled BeeGees 1st, but their first internationally, as the first two albums were only released in Australia. BeeGees 1st was released in July '67. Otis Redding was set to record To Love Somebody on his next album. Sadly, Otis was killed in a plane crash, Dec 10,1967. I thought for the longest time that they didn't record it themselves until after the death of Otis Redding. Their brother Andy Gibb had a very successful solo career as well until his death on March 10,1988. Just 5 days after turning 30. Andy had developed myocarditis, inflammation of the heart, which was brought on by a viral infection While most people recover from myocarditis, Andy's body was unable to fight the infection due to his history of drug use. Soo sad! The 1st time I heard this song, I was 15 years old. I was sitting on the floor in our living room. They sang with so much emotion that I had tears running down my face. It didn't hurt that before this I found out that Barry and I shared the same birthday, me in 1963 and him in 1946. While I was crying, my daddy came in and told me to knock it off or he'd change the channel. He was mean.
