The fact they played this live is amazing, and proves how good they were. No one was playing live on tv at this time.

[@gregpek1624]

Adam Lambert still does.

[@robertcarli1969]

@@williampaul7096 was this performance on ' The Midnight Special' live ?

[@williampaul7096]

Yes, all the midnight specials were live. In the studio version of the song Barry does the falsettos, they were overlayed in the song. Now obviously he couldn’t sing lead and do the falsettos live so Maurice did the falsetto in this performance.

[@renyauger4560]

Barry is singing lead in his natural voice. They discovered his high range by accident during a recording session. He has a huge range.

[@carloskymvilches1765]

Exactly!!!

[@quicktastic]

Freaking live. Love hearing Maurice do those high callouts at the end. What a performance.

[@lt6134]

Barry was singing lead here - just his lower voice. Robin was in middle. Maurice was singing the high part in chorus (although on the record, Barry sang that part too)

[@sirrobin4394]

Barry and Robin shared lead vocals on this one.

[@charlesoneill8389]

[@reneemanning5194]

Pronounced "Morris"

[@helzapoppin9810]

Absolutely insane that this was a live performance. Perfect tight harmonies.

[@dortheyc5276]

Love, love, love them!!! This is pre-disco, pre-falsetto days. My heart always skips a beat when Robin starts singing, "Well I had to follow you.....". His voice is so captivating. And Mo's voice and musical instrumentation are just mind blowing.

[@TheCornishCockney]

For the diehard rock fan in the 70’s,the BeeGees were seen as cheesy,but trust me,they were EVERYONES guilty pleasure and we’ve ALL danced to many of their tracks.

[@gregorywright2798]

You can tell they are really singing the song because there's no filler music in the background. if you hear the album, the song seems very different because there's a lot of their filler voices in between the music they Sing. it's really really good to hearing them sing naturally, without all the background and filler music that albums have. it shows their talent and they are very talented!!!

[@terrimobley6067]

This song was the one that Barry learned people liked his high voice from the back drop vocals he did... And a whole new sound was born

[@telstar4772]

The high pitched singing is Maurice. Make something else up lol

[@sallymcmanus9198]

I love that this performance features all brothers voices, especially Maurice using his falsetto long before Barry discovered his! ☮️✌️ Edit: Barry is on the right, Robin in the middle with Maurice (pronounced Morris) on the left. Barry did sing the falsetto on the recording but could not when singing live

[@davidmoorecatdaddy6994]

That's interesting , I didn't know that . Just curious , why couldn't Barry hit the high notes live ?

[@jamiestowe39]

@@davidmoorecatdaddy6994 Because Barry is already singing lead on the main vocals. While he can multitrack in the studio, Barry can't sing two different parts at the same time live.

[@sallyhallada]

@@davidmoorecatdaddy6994 It’s just for that song - he sang plenty falsetto live! 😉

[@sallymcmanus9198]

@@davidmoorecatdaddy6994 Early on, before the “birth” of Barry’s falsetto, he & Robin basically shared lead. Then in the 70’s is when they were asked to kind of scream is when Barry discovered he could control it much better than Robin & Maurice. All of them could sing with the falsetto, just not as easily as Barry & because of that it seems he sang lead more because of that. Before the whole disco onset, early on, in their harmonies Maurice sang the high harmony a lot. In an interview, Barry once said that Maurice was a genius at instinctively knowing how to use his voice in harmony ☮️✌️

[@kthor]

@@sallymcmanus9198 And it was on this very song Barry realized the falsetto in him & they began writing more music for this newly discovered voice!

[@gordomctavish6599]

I love your reaction at 4:44, which parallels my reaction to that part: The song is bopping along, and then it shifts, those ascending chords come in, and the sadness, the loss enter. One can feel it immediately. And the harmonies build, wrapping around one, and giving some solace. It is an amazing piece of art.

Hi Angela it’s Robin singing the part you were interested in.

[@scottcraft2364]

Maurice sang the falsetto part in the end!

[@frankstiling9999]

Even if it's takes a lifetime 💥

[@jrpearcey9352]

One of my favorites Bee Gees performances -- especially Maurice hitting those falsetto high notes and Robin's solo elements. Thanks for the reaction!

[@Mr.56Goldtop]

This whole album, Main Course, is a great album! No throw away songs here! Many consider it their best album. And Fanny, Be Tender is on it. That's reason enough to own it!

[@victoriajohnson5461]

My brother had it and he knew 🎵 music!

[@victoriajohnson5461]

It was. Their best LP.😘

[@allybeetulk1457]

I have about 13 copies now of main course from different countries. All are a different shade of green and I think its hilarious. The one from mum's teenage collection is obviously my favourite though.

[@785boats]

Ahhh. the original 'auto tune'. Cupping the hand to the ear which allowed the singer to better hear the pitch of their own voice an adjust their vocals themselves while they were singing. Especially when singing harmonies. So many great singers used to do that. Great reaction to a disco classic.

[@monilaninetynine3811]

Great things that "real" singers used to do.

[@tylerjerabek5204]

Yup Robin did it all the time- proved they’re really good and doing it live

[@GinMae]

Thanks - this is a great song - and I really love ROBIN! :) - Maurice is a key part, as well - probably least known and appreciated...

[@scootdaws25]

Barry was on the far right, Robin, with his unique quaver in the middle and Maurice on the left doing the high parts at the end. Put em all together and you have close to perfection.

[@robinfry4408]

All the brothers have very distinct voices, the magic happens when the 3 voices blend together & they sound like one in perfect harmony...they are without peer in my opinion❤

[@rranger1014]

Fosho!

[@kimberlinibambini1988]

Love all things Bee Gees- however I highly recommend the studio version as well- There’s more bass and bits you might not catch or even hear if you’re not very familiar with it- .. Much “fuller” sound in the studio version- 💙💜✌️

[@chrisharris6206]

Your right about the other version , too each it's own . But I don't understand why most reactions don't do that version 💯🙄🤗

[@justasurfer8596]

I actually prefer this one. Barry without all the falsetto. His voice is pretty powerful

[@dub16100]

I agree

[@elizabethheadid5996]

Kimberlini I so agree! Even though this is still good, the studio version blends the instruments and vocals evenly bringing out the greatness of all who were part of this masterpiece. 🙌

[@ccbearcreek]

Correct.

[@vandoraginther6421]

The Bee Gees are true talents. I love them and have been privileged to have listened to them all my life. So many great songs, so diverse. Amazing!!! Love your reaction it was great!!

[@namwob77]

Although Morris was singing a few lines in high falsetto, this is the first song where Barry Gibb was asked by their producer to do a scream near the end of the song also in high falsetto which then led to the "iconic" Bee Bee sound from that time forward.

[@pegbars]

Robin Gibb is in the middle here. Barry you know already. Robin and Maurice (they pronounced it almost like "Morris") were fraternal twins. Barry was the oldest brother and today is the last living Bee Gee (2022). Robin really shines, singing the lead on "I Started a Joke".

[@patcount1883]

I saw one other person mention this somewhere in here, but to highlight the point. It was during the recording of Nights on Broadway that Barry discovered he could sing falsetto. It was THIS song that led to the long line of famous falsetto Bee Gees songs. Here Maurice sings the falsetto parts because it’s live and Barry is singing the lead with his full voice.

[@carolinegilles9181]

To listen carefully : Barry rarely singing chest..!!! My dearest,so adorable Rob Singing Bird taking leads (with his ADORABLE ❤️moves) And my FOREVER and ALWAYS Babe Mo singing falsetto (cos YEP, for whom had any doubt, Mo did FANTASTIC falsetto + being an INCREDIBLE drummer, guitar and bass player, piano player, and Keyboard) + his harmony without which BGS would never have existed..!!! Die hard fan of the Bros since I was 12, a long time ago..!!! Had the privileged to be a GEN X, and to delight MY G’s in gig multiple times...!!!

Don’t forget the wah wah pedal 🙂

[@robertserra7107]

Actually it was Barry Gibb singing lead vocals and Robin and Maurice Gibb singing backup vocals but Robin Gibb has a small vocal solo in this song.

[@runforitscooby]

If I wore tight pants like they did in the "70s I'd have a high voice too

[@stevenm.6886]

Live vocals here. Just great. You can’t beat family singing harmonies. Love this tune

[@theshop62]

The lead was Barry just not using his falsetto voice. Actually Mo had to sing falsetto in the end just the way the song was designed. But they can all sing falsetto and harmonize. There will never be another family trio like them

[@ginagirlio]

Maurice(pronounced Morris)is singing falsetto here and Barry and Robin are singing lead. Barry sings the falsetto part on the recording. Loved The Bee Gees then and love them even more now.

[@chaoticneutral3487]

My favorite Bee Gee's song! It's a banger of a tune.

[@bencobb1040]

That is so funky....

[@benrogers3386]

Yeah the funky wah wah guitar effect really makes this song. I also love the moog synthesizer bass underneath holding it all down. Not to mention some of the greatest harmonies of all time from The Brothers Gibb. So sad that only Barry is the only one left now :(

[@negf22]

That was Barry singing lead, he has a deep chest voice. Everyone thinks he just sings in falsetto…that only came out in the late 70’s. They have bunches of great songs from the 60’s and early 70’s with Barry using his chest voice. He has a fantastic range. Mo Maurice ( pronounced Morris, Mo for short) does the. Harmonies and the high parts at the end (live)

[@jupiteralmighty3730]

Maurice is the one on the left, he's doing the falsetto's live for this song. Robin is the one in the middle and Barry is the one on the right, he has most parts in the song.

[@chercee]

Barry, the one on the right, is the oldest, and the only surviving member. Maurice (pronounced Morris - on the left) passed away first. His twin, Robin, in the middle, passed away next. But before that, their youngest brother, Andy Gibb, who was not a member of The Gee Gees also had some hit songs, passed away at only 30. There had been talk of Andy joining the group, but it ended up not happening (Although all four brothers are together onstage in the video - Andy shares the microphone with Maurice - in the video for You Should Be Dancing, kzbin.info/www/bejne/lXvSi4Zsgcykj6s, which is the reason I love it!). There are only Barry and a sister left.
