Bee Gees - Massachusetts *REACTION*

[@user-megpegW]

The ethereal quality of Robin's voice never ceases to touch a special place in my heart . No matter how many times I listen I'm still moved to tears by their unique talent. Very grateful for the legacy they left for us to enjoy. ❤🙏🙏🙏

[@joepowell7025]

THe songs of the 60's and 70's are enchanting ... There is soooo much more for you to explore. LOVE your reactions, please keep it up.

[@jeannettewelty6920]

I love your reactions.I am 61 and their singing still makes me feel the way you describe.They were all incredible.

[@TimothySmiths]

I Started A Joke is my favorite Robin song out of all of his.

[@bettyartis3648]

Love your reactions and burgeoning love for the Bee Gees. Excellent point about live performances. So much for you to still enjoy. Fanny be tender with my love, How Deep is your Love, More than a Woman, Love you inside and out, Love so Right, I started a joke...you'll be set for years!

[@pauperme8852]

Well its fantastic the someone younger loves the sounds from the past, some great songs from the bee gees, for whom the bell Tolls is a great one with Barry and Robin killing it

[@LillyMarz777]

I love the Brothers Gibb. They were the best.❤

[@GinMae]

Thanks, Amber! Such a beautiful song.. (this was a much "older" version than the original) Robin was always my favorite! appreciate your reaction... (no better harmonies that among family...) One version of this song was done on the Johnny Carson show.. live.. with Robin singing lead and oldest brother Barry playing guitar... Robin's fraternal twin Maurice.. who never gets the credit he deserved... is "clowning" b/c his part is intermittent.. it's really fun, so if you have time & inclination, check this out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rneaaZKwfrCHmbs

[@conniebrown983]

This is the first #1 Bee Gees song in America! This was 1960s before Barry started using or discovered his falsetto. Interestingly enough, it’s Maurice that sings the high parts in this song! These 3 brothers used to sing in their bedroom as youngsters and their mother thought they accidentally left the radio on. Mom opened the door to turn the radio off and realized she didn’t hear the radio, rather, she was hearing her sons singing! They started performing when the twins were 5 and Barry was 8!

[@sorrystaunton]

Saw them live at Madison Square Garden they were incredible and so professional. Their sound was fantastic.

[@susieq9801]

The brothers were Manx (from the Isle of Man) and their first TV performance was in Australia in 1960 when the twins were 9 and Barry 12. They had no musical education and cannot read or write music but have composed an amazingly versatile collection of over 1000 songs for themselves and hits for other big stars. They were labelled as disco but that is terribly inaccurate. They actually considered that era R&B and it was only a brief phase of their career. They became very popular with that, overexposed and blacklisted so nobody would play their great music from the '80's, 90's and 2000's. STUPID! I like a lot of their older songs. Robin had a 5 octave range and beautiful vibrato. He did a lot of leads early in their career and quite a few after disco. Early ones - "I started a joke" from this same concert. "And the sun will shine", "Country lanes", etc. Post disco Robin is prominent in "When he's gone", "Bodyguard", "Please" and others. He did more leads than many realise. It's just that the disco era with Barry's falsetto was so well known. Robin also was a big contributor to the songwriting with Barry and as well as writing an orchestral piece "The Titanic Requiem" played by the National Philharmonic. Maurice was the musical wonder boy who put their lyrics and melodies to music and found the right 3rd harmony. Barry was the eldest and leader. PS the medley from this concert is amazing and highlights some of their hits AND those they wrote for others and shows each brother's fortes....One for all tour Melbourne 1989.

[@romarobbins270]

I love Robin’s voice! Check out I Started a Joke, it’s another Robin song.

[@lindabqc]

You got a beautiful rabbit hole to go down. I still cry at the perfection

[@bella-xp7qd]

When they wrote this song 🎵 they had never been to Massachusetts. Released in 1968. Love their pre falsetto works. I've been listening to them since 1968. This was one of their first songs I heard.

[@miminewell334]

Honey you need to use headphones or earbuds when listening to The Bee Gees lol. Their my favorite group!!! Thank you for your reaction videos!!❤️🎼🎤🎼❤️

[@mimiwiz1]

Agreed! Headphones enhance the musicality and vocals, a must.

[@richelmore8167]

You are so Spot On about these guys. Great reaction, and well said. Kudos.

[@winsomeblandford1076]

The best my fave song by Robin❤

[@jamescanole3940]

Welcome from Massachusetts! So many beautiful songs like this one from their '60s songs...Words, New York Mining Disaster, Holiday, To Love Somebody, I Started A Joke, First Of May and more. Enjoy the journey!

[@Sandra6411]

Yes…they were great! Keep The Bee Gees coming!!!! DO Fanny Be Tender next! OR… if you really want to hear their harmonies live, do the LIVE MEDLEY from this same concert - 1989. It’s just the 3 of them singing around 1 mic, and the harmonies are fantastic! Make sure you do the entire medley which is about 12-14 minutes in length… but it’s worth it!

[@yellowbeardjamesgibson9297]

[@kevindobson3701]

Sir Barry Gibb is the only one left alive and still sings and performs today . Maurice sadly died in 2003 and Robin died in 2012 They had a younger brother Andy who sang solo who died in 1988.

[@paulcasey5486]

robin,s voice is brilliant but fun fact it was the second song ever played on radio 1

[@nelerhabarber5602]

If you love the harmonies, react to their medley 1989 One for all live!

[@lindabqc]

Immortality

[@kthor]

Beautiful song written by Barry & Mo in 3 & a half minutes, though credited to all three.🎵

[@marshaibarra7729]

I do listen to it almost daily

[@kathieovercash8414]

You should react to their much younger brother Andy Gibb on the Midnight Special singing, I Just Wanna Be Your Everything. He was adorable. Kind of a Barry mini me. They even had identical birthmarks but 12 years apart.

[@kevindobson3701]

You are extremely gorgeous !

[@marshaibarra7729]

I absolutely Love ❤ this song and the ending ❤❤❤

[@AXXXDEAN]

I've Gotta Get A Message To You ( Live One Night Only) Robin and Barry swapping lead and the harmony on the last note is just as good as this one

[@tubularguynine]

Some of their best harmony is on 'Run To Me', Maurice brings it in the choruses! And in 'Alone', another super high falsetto fantasy, he hits notes that sound more like a flute than a human! I'm an old guy, and saw them do 'Night's On Broadway and other songs on the Midnight Special TV show, and 'Alone' still sounds like the first time I heard it..

[@singluna888]

Beautiful. As only they can do.

[@jerrypost9651]

Loves your reaction. 😊 So many brilliant tunes from these guys -- with the '60s stuff being among the best. Robin's "I Started a Joke" is a masterpiece.

[@bevnickel7693]

Great song choice A.D Reacts, the Bee Gees were world class singers, more songs like , how deep is your love and One live enjoy.

[@rickthoma6428]

These guys wrote their own songs

[@eddyalfa6651]

Nice reaction, of the best Bee Gees, can you react the songs: You should Be dancing, More Than a Woman, How Deep Is your Love and Night Fever, please

[@jamiesweitzer8469]

Lonely Days was the Bee Gees answer the Beatles question "Where would I be without my woman"!😅😅😅❤❤❤

[@lindabqc]

Please do more

[@A.DReacts]

I will!

[@cariza5]

​@@A.DReactsYou must do, Bee Gees - Night Fever Original Video.

[@LoveClassicMusic0205]

They had a fourth brother named Andy who had a solo career. He sings a song called "Shadow Dancing" that you should react to. He looks like Barry's twin, even though he's quite a few years younger. I believe the original plan was to bring him into the Bee Gees, but sadly he died at the age of 30 before that could happen.

[@haratriantafillou3208]

Try i started a joke and i cant see nobody❤️❤️

[@user-xg6jw7mp5e]

Great reaction to the fantastic Bee Gees …. Another great Australian artist to react to is John Farnham singing Help with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, you won’t be disappointed. Hello from Sydney Australia.

[@marciaeliasen4708]

I cannot swear to the truth of this, but I have read (some time ago) that in order to prevent conflict between the brothers about the recording of songs, whichever brother wrote the song would take the lead. These three "power houses of song" also had a much younger brother (Andy) who sang with them for a bit, but then went out on his own. Unfortunately, Andy died at a very young age. I believe he was only about 30 years old.

[@romysan1]

The Bee Gee's are the worldly....Thanks guys !!!

[@davidleatherneck]

Watched you vid of BGs "Too much Heaven" but comments were closed. So, to add to that review, that was done in the Studio and was being recorded. Nice job on both songs. Thanks. Oh, for a whole show- 'One night only in Los Vegas. '

[@scottharvey6892]

Here's a few you might consider. Run the ones you don't know past your Mom and see which ones stick. "Disco Inferno" by The Trammps "Night Fever" by Bee Gees "Boogie Nights" by Heatwave "I'm Your Boogie Man" by K.C. & the Sunshine Band "Shake Your Booty" by K.C. & the Sunshine Band "Born To Be Alive" by Patrick Hernandez "Boogie Fever" by The Sylvers I'll be along for the ride regardless to whatever you react. Good reaction videos.

[@kevindobson3701]

I love your channel , your so genine & heartfelt

[@jimnicosia5934]

I saw them live in Saratoga, NY.😊

[@noplacelikehomecrochet5335]

I started a joke was a wonderful song by Robin. Where ever your reaction journey takes you, I wish you the best 💐❤️ there is an artist up and coming really worth checking out. Hi REN by Ren is an amazing place to start caution there is a bit of language. He’s a singer, rapper, poet, storyteller and so much more with a large audience that loves new people discovering his many talents.

[@jimnicosia5934]

I saw them live in Saratoga Springs.

[@terezinhafernandes8164]

Sou uma grande fã dos Bee Gees e adoro ver jovens reagindo às suas músicas. Eles fizeram parte da minha adolescência e juventude aqui no Brasil e os jovens precisam conhecê-los. Por favor, vc precisa ouvir "I Started a Joke", "Fanny Be Tender" e "How Deep Is Your Love" só para começar. A quantidade de músicas maravilhosas que eles têm é inacreditável! Obrigada por seu trabalho!😊

[@dawndeleon3765]

Yup. No one does harmony like these guys. That last, I think it's a five to one chord change at the very end, nothing like it. This one in the link attached, from Here At Last...Bee Gees Live, you can hear it even more clearly (at 11:40 in the video). If you want to go down the Bee Gees rabbit hole, I suggest to start, To Love Somebody, Smoke and Mirrors Nights on Broadway and Too Much Heaven. kzbin.info/www/bejne/j17FlaanbLh_pKc

[@slucas60]

Love your channel! Please react to "Tragedy" and "To Love Somebody"!!!

[@jeffstevens4262]

I can't watch the Bee Gees perform together because it really breaks my heart to know apart from Barry, they've now all gone. They all sang like angels. God rest Robin, Andy, and Maurice. 💔💔💔

[@GabrielRodriguesYT]

I love your reactions. Most Gen Z people seem to be nonchalant when listening to these gems.

[@angelapietro4734]

You need to watch their harmonies starting from when they were younger and then watch their progression..its absolutely amazing, heads up their catalog is HUGE so buckle in ❤ music.kzbin.info/www/bejne/oXyopWBvo8p3jaM&si=HgECaVVGXb53OX3s

[@SVT293]

They were teenagers when they wrote this song.

[@A.DReacts]

So much talent in that family!

[@rayrodriguez8417]

Hi im new to the chanel , if you looking for something funky from the BG's but with the same Harmonies try " LOVE YOU INSIDE OUT"

[@ed.z.]

When they wrote this the had been to Massachusetts.

[@johnvetere]

I love the B Gs to but Queen has great harmonies too.

[@AXXXDEAN]

[@pauperme8852]

Please watch a video of For whom the bell Tolls great song from them all

[@BM4-Life]

Hello *Amber* How are you nice start to your channel 😊 wonder if you would like to react to my favorite band called *BAND-MAID* they are an all female rock band from Japan they are an awesome set of musicians and I think you might enjoy them. With over 4,000 reaction *BAND-MAID* has a strong following and would be welcome with open arms 😁 Please react to their official live video of *Don't You Tell ME* I think you would enjoy it a lot. 😊 _BTW can you give me a shout out if you decide to do it, Thanks._

[@robertrockwell7581]

I always preferred Robin. he always did the more soulful and or sad songs.

[@dreadwolf4644]

And all of that without Autotune and lipsinking. Then again, that was back when musicians actually had talent.

[@jefffisher1045]

Great analysis, and also the truth about your generation is missing out on great music. Also, you going to have to fix the audio on the music, sounds like it's coming out of a broken speaker.

[@markclements7767]

@A.DReacts Hello there, greetings from UK I notice that you have a brand new channel and therefore I don't know what your musical tastes may encompass, but I noticed that you have a reaction to Disturbed in your reaction list, so I thought that I would give you a song recommendation that may, or may not be something you might like? A favourite with most reactors is a band called Nightwish. They play what is termed 'Symphonic Metal'. It may not be what you at first envision Metal to be. One of their songs is in the top three most reacted songs in KZbin history, but I am recommending a song which they realeased just last week as it has an awesome music video to accompany it It is a song called "Perfume Of The Timeless" Releaseed just eight days ago it has so far amassed 1.3 Million views 😁 I hope that you enjoy it and decide to react to it 😊 kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXmmko2jft-lZtEsi=kqk5KKYZG26FdjT5 Who knows, you may get a visit from The Nightwish Army coming to watch your reaction

[@kevindobson3701]

Can you please react to Elegantly Wasted by INXS , music video version please 😊 😊 😉

[@l-b7353]

you should adjust the sound output of the video, it is very difficult to hear.

[@Noname-ni1dy]

Isn’t it sad when you compare the mega selling musicians of today to the amazing music of The BeeGees, Beatles, Eagles, Three Dog Night and so many others of the 1960’s and 70’s. Young people today think Taylor Swift is the greatest thing in the history of music. She and other current “superstars” can’t come close to the music of the 60’s and 70’s.

[@A.DReacts]

I have to agree on this!

[@elizabethavolck7784]

Listen to the original 45 that we grew up with on the radio.....why these live performances? Studio version is by far better.

[@DavidWilkerson-q1t]

Your generation has no clue.
