Beatles Medley - Bee Gees | The Midnight Special

[@DannyintheSpirit]

The thing about the Bee Gees is that they were brothers and their voices were very similar genetically, so when they sang together there is this magic that many others could never even hope to capture.

there's a term that describes that phenomenon... you hear it in the everly brothers, the isley brothers, and of course the bee gees. it's called 'blood harmony.' which describes the sound of voices that originate from the same sources. ts
