BEEGEES-TOO MUCH HEAVEN-REACTION

[@brunopaolucci6054]

Isn’t it crazy how the world is in 2024 but, you hear this song and it DOES but a smile on your face!

[@CatRemy2016]

Amen.. transported right back there with an all teeth shining smile.. so so true @brunopaolucci6054!!

[@eduardoditommasogarrido9190]

No autotune .... No dirty lyrics...... Just pure music !!!!!!! I’m grateful for your work and lagacy!

[@Muckylittleme]

Pure heaven.

[@analuisahering2043]

Just pure talent ❤

[@johnrusk6490]

So right!! Pure joy

[@CampbellArchitect]

I am 70 and the music of the 60s 70s and 80s was the best. The Bee Gees were the best of all of them for me. The twins and Barry started singing at 3 and 4. Barry writes them and still is. See them sing with another brother Andy. THIS IS MY FAVORITE SONG OF ALL TIME other than some church music. I am so glad people are rediscovering them!!!! There is hardly any good music today!!!

[@Tammy-fq9gl]

All of the brothers wrote music, not just Barry

[@mossy_hollow_creations]

Same for me - born in 71 - 60s, 70s, 80s is the best compilation of decade music - the BeeGees are top tier - perfection.

[@michelle172ct]

They were inspired by many artists. They wrote for Otis Redding, Diana Ross, Dolly Parton, Barbra Streisand and many many others-AND none of the brothers could read or write music. Pure God given talent.

[@churchboy5827]

That's incredible. It took me a while to learn music theory after I started playing. I'm amazed.God-given talent indeed.

[@brendawilson8208]

Yes, they wrote a song for Otis Redding, but before he could record it, he died in a plane crash. So, the song 'Islands in the Stream' was given to Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers which became a huge hit for them.

[@wickedwillis5611]

@@brendawilson8208 The song they wrote for Otis Redding was To Love Somebody which they then released in 1967 the same year Otis Redding died,

[@gregtaylor8651]

Cannot agree more on the Pure God Talent.

[@sherriwoodfin6586]

We can't forget Al Green How do you Mend a Broken Heart.

[@johnrodrigues5974]

The Bee Gees donated all of the proceeds from this song to UNICEF. It’s to help children around the world. To this date they have received over 10 Million dollars and still collecting today.

[@CatRemy2016]

They gave the song to Unicef so they will always have without question of proceeds vs song ownership! Aren't these guys the best!?!? We had it good !!! Take Care!!

[@angelinasanchez5083]

I’m so glad you loved the song. The beauty of The Bee Gees was not only their angelic voices, their heavenly harmonies but the fact that they wrote all their own music. They loved to use all different kinds of instruments in their arrangements. Knew were they wanted violins, saxophones, trumpets, etc…and all without knowing how to write or read music. The were all self taught and played guitar, piano/keyboard etc..Maurice was the multi instrumentalist of the three. They even wrote top hits for top artists. They wrote over 1000+ songs of different genres and they were heavily influenced by R&B, Soul, funk. They were perfectionists and would not release something if it did not meet up to their standards. Their three part harmonies are unequaled. Please react to LOVE YOU INSIDE OUT, it’s R&B and Barry’s falsetto is impeccable, thank you for your great reaction. ❤❤❤

[@michelle172ct]

Quincy Jones said their hit “Fanny be Tender with my love “ is one of the best R&B songs he’s ever heard

[@Gkprjustme]

He also said the Bee Gees are the greatest harmonies ever said he’s ever heard in. Nobody will ever be like them again.

[@gibber1600]

One of my favs

[@RbsReflection]

And Barry Gibb has been married for 53 years to the same woman. Love the brothers Gibb! ❤😊

[@sandradyer5956]

Their range, harmony and songwriting skills are second to none. The Brothers Brilliant never disappoint! This was before autotune was even invented. They are pure talent.

[@waltermorris5786]

ITS LIKE GOD HAS GIVEN US A SMALL GLIMPSE OF WHAT HEAVENLY MUSIC WILL SOUND LIKE, BUT ONLY MORE LOVELY.

[@conniebrown983]

These 3 brothers were born to sing! The 2 on the outside are actually twins! These three used to sing in their bedroom as kids and their mother thought her boys were listening to the radio. Their first performance was when the twins were only 5!! R. I. P. To the twins Robin and Maurice Gibb, you are missed!

[@judyhorstmann6332]

The rabbit hole of the Bee Gees is extremely deep. You're welcome!!

[@sallyhallada]

It’s a magical song and when it was released, they gave away the rights to UNICEF and it’s raised millions for the charity even if someone else covers it - first group to do that 👍🏻 Nobody like them 🤩

[@ryanfamilyfun]

They always credit the Mills Brothers as one of their main inspirations

[@DeLaineTriplitt]

ChurchBoy, I just love your enthusiasm for these talented brothers! Your reactions brought joy to my heart. The Bee Gees were singing harmony the year I was born and I'm on the downhill run to 70. They were blessed with talent and worked very diligently. But I believe their music was fueled by love. Each had his own unique voice and vocal strength. I'd encourage you to explore more deeply. Thank you for sharing your joy! 💕

[@jesserice5258]

Watching the faces of those of you who weren’t lucky enough to grow up with the music of my generation is sooo satisfying! We were lucky enough to be inundated with great, timeless music and I’m so happy to see its sound touch a new generation. ❤️

[@fauxmedia3182]

Love the Tone of your voice ❤❤❤

[@TonyLoraMullins]

My love swept me off my feet to this song 46 years ago. Its timeless and beautiful and it means so much to me STILL❤❤❤❤

[@gavinmcleod7446]

Great heartfelt reaction to this classic.🙌 “ FANNY BE TENDER WITH MY LOVE” is another harmonious and beautiful soulful/R&B jam…..they were inspired by the Mills Brothers and the Stylistics.

[@buckleymordecai9605]

Right? Let's here it for my generation. Born in '56...freaking LOVE the Bee Gees!

[@Sabrineable]

This song was donated to Unicef. There was a concert for Unicef and they donated the song and rights to that charity. The song netted $10 million for the charity. This is so beautiful. If this song was re-released today, It would go to number 1 and probably a Grammy for Song of the Year.

[@raycewilliams3300]

I believe that the Bee Gees had a few groups that inspired them. Some of them were The Mills Brothers and The Harmony Kings. The Gibb brothers have been singing together since they were young boys. Their harmonies have been crafted for decades and we are hearing a great example of those harmonies in this song.

[@doug8841]

They were masters of their craft. Their harmonies were the essence of their greatness . Fantastic group. Man they don't make music like this anymore .🔥

[@kathieovercash8414]

One of my favorite things about them is whether they're live or recorded they sound exactly the same. They don't like loving a song and hearing it live and it doesn't sound like the recording. They always sound live just like the record.

[@GwenByrd-d4k]

God gave talent to every race Not just black people have soul.

[@michelebriere9569]

They were born in the late 40s, so their influences were soul, Motown. Listen to some of their interviews. They loved talking about music. They could also be very funny. Great sense of humor.

[@htbald1]

They loved the way The Stylistics sounded and wanted to partially emulate them vocally!

[@kimberlyrineer6822]

One of my favs

[@churchboy5827]

The stylistics is on my list.

[@craiganders3424]

The bass is played by one of them, Maurice Gibb!

[@bettyartis3648]

They never learned to read or write music yet they were gifted geniuses. They always wrote from the heart. Their father was an English band leader and their mother was a singer. People often thought they were black which they took as a massive compliment! Inspired by Everly Brothers, Motown, can't think of others at the moment. It was always about the harmonies.

[@churchboy5827]

Wow..I absolutely love this group!

[@stevelloyd6940]

The Bee Gees had hits in the 60’s 70’s 80’s 90’s and 2000’s and had 22 studio albums and 83 singles. They also wrote songs for most of the top artists such as Dolly Parton and Kenny Rogers, Elvis, Barbara Streisand, Diana Ross, Olivia Newton-John, Yvonne Elliman, Tavares, Frankie Valli, Jimmy Ruffin and Dionne Warwick to name but a few. They wrote over 1,000 songs are in the Songwriters Hall of Fame and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

[@rammallerheiligen5040]

The smile on your face,says it all!!!

[@MockingBirdCanta]

Too Much Heaven is from the Bee Gee's live performance at The Music for UNICEF Concert: A Gift of Song. It was a benefit concert of popular music held in the United Nations General Assembly in New York City on January 9, 1979. It was intended to raise money for UNICEF world hunger programs and to mark the beginning of the International Year of the Child. The concert was videotaped and broadcast the following day on NBC in the U.S. and around the world. The Bee Gees gave UNICEF rights to all royalties from the song. It's raised about $13 Million for UNICEF thus far.

[@tropaes]

Hearing this appreciation from someone who also knows music theory makes it even more valuable. Great reaction.

[@robing9278]

Barry is the oldest and also the last surviving brother. I can't imagine not having their wonderful music all of these years (I'm 65).

[@ingridneumann8196]

Welcome in the Univers of the Bee Gees. They had so many Songs. And every Song is a surprice. I grow up with the best Group ever. Amazing Voices Amazing Song Amazing Bee Gees. 🕺🥰👍

The brothers harmonize perfectly they did this live in a studio with an orchestra, no auto tunes in the 70's Robin, Barry in the middle, Maurice Gibb

[@jillsample1846]

They reinvented themselves constantly. Watch the chest, breathing of Barry. Powerful voice!!! They sang as one. They've been singing together since the age of 6 and 9 yrs old.

I love the reactions to this video clip. I have not seen one where the person didn't break into a beautiful genuine smile. This is such a good feeling sound. There are very possibly many adults now who are the result of the beautiful music and vibes the Bee Gees. Smoochie music makes the future generations 😊

[@jeffreymosher6334]

22 studio albums over 50 years, 83 singles released, and the brothers composed close to if not a thousand songs for themselves and many others. The two you’ve reacted to were two of six consecutive #1s they had late 1977 to mid 1979, when they were the biggest thing in the world. 81 other singles to try with easily 30 well worth trying out. Love the Brothers Gibb, BG, Bee Gees.

[@spacefanatic]

The Bee Gees are 3 brothers who were born on the Isle of Man, then moved to Manchester before emigrating to Australia. They then returned to the UK before moving to the USA. They wrote loads of great songs over many decades and genres. They also sounded just as good live as on the studio versions and had fabulous harmonies. The Bee Gees also wrote for other singers including Barbara Stresand etc.

[@krystalaura5634]

Music is all about frequencies and when those frequencies touch your soul you get chills.

[@iainsmith2434]

To my ear the most enjoyable harmonies occur between Robin and Maurice while Barry does his trill (if that’s a word) over the top. Known this one since 1981.

[@gregtaylor8651]

Only the Bee Gees pure music from an Era that cannot be matched ever.

[@photo161]

It's so moving in this troubled world to watch a guy like you who loves music as much as you getting turned on by something just because it's beautiful.. Thank you so much for sharing your positive energy...

[@cheryla3958]

Welcome to the music of The Brothers Gibb aka The BeeGees! They were awesome! All three brothers could sing falsetto but Barry could hold it longer. The Bee Gee rabbit hole is massive and deep! Will be looking forward to watching your Bee Gee journey. Great response and I loved your reaction! 🎶🎶🎶

[@Vee1music-lover]

I love to watch people react to the BeeGees! The surprise! We all fell in love with them back in the 70’s even tho they’d already been around for a few years. Saturday Night Fever really brought them to the forefront! NO ONE can beat them! Pure raw talent!

[@alanlundberg4534]

Outstanding reaction! Thank you.

[@patriciatolliver4057]

Patty-You should try How Deep is Your Love. The harmonies in this one are just as amazing.

[@francrespo553]

They have harmonized since they were kids. Amazing. Get their CDs outstanding. Thanks for doing this.

[@g.dubyou6263]

The reactions to these songs make me feel as good as you do listening to them. These guys are incredible. I grew up in the 70s on them. 3 brothers, Barry is the only brother still alive. Maurice (pronounced Morris) with the thinning hair, and Robin were fraternal twins.

[@FancyAchat]

Welcome to the wonderful world of the BeeGees! It will not disappoint! They spoke of many inspirations and loved R&B. Right now you're in the 70's, very R&B and dance. Back to the hits in the 60's for more Folk ballads and more. They had hits also in the 80's, 90's up to early 2000's as a group. Until we lost our first BeeGee in 2003. They all also play instruments. Your fun has only just begun! Enjoy! Please listen to "Fanny be Tender with My Love" Quincy Jones claimed might be his favorite R&B song. Have a great night. Thanks

[@garnet4765]

The BeeGees stands for the Brothers Gibb. Barry is the oldest. Robin and Maurice are twins. They started performing together professionally as young children.

[@musterseeds1778]

Just pure Magic...

[@armiyojackson4284]

The Bee Gees were phenonal musicians. One of the best group of the time. I know their home in Australia.

I hope Heaven has a Bee Gee channel that we get to listen to while the haters can get what they deserve all fire and no Bee Gees.

Your lovely smile throughout this performance said it all 😊 Love the Gibb bros..sending you love from London ❤ 🇬🇧

[@bettystalling3435]

This song make me feel happy inside. I grew up as a teenager with theses guys. We thought the BeeGees were black too, but it didn’t matter to us. This was clean beautiful music, and I still get goosebumps listening to it, it never gets old! Love seeing how you embrace and appreciate great music!

[@deborahjones6066]

They were influenced at a young age by the music their mom played in the house..one of those bands were the Mills Brothers.... They were all Knighted by Queen Elizabeth ...Maurice had already passed away, so Queen Elizabeth presented the medal and certification to the two remaining brothers, Barry and Robin.... The Bee Gees are the BEST EVER!!!

[@henrykosky3919]

Crazy harmony

[@amymarckel420]

The Mills Brothers were a big inspiration for them, especially when they were coming up. They stated in many interviews that their dad was a big fan of their music and their love of harmony came from listening to those records, among others.

[@richardyoung7581]

Brothers have a special sound when singing harmony. Family too. Beach Boys, etc…

[@lindacantarella7026]

You are so so correct re: the Mills Brothers. My son gave me a great picture of very young brothers Gibb and the much older wonderful Mills Brothers. It sits on my piano.

[@EdFertik]

They didn't always use the falsetto but once they started the record label insisted that was the way to go. They weren't wrong!

[@kevinmcneice8989]

Pure Music and Soul ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@bettyartis3648]

They started in 1958 as little kids. Other great songs from this time are Fanny be tender with my love, More than a woman, Nights on Broadway, Jive Talking...so many! Enjoy the rabbit hole. Maurice Gibb, balding brother, was responsible for most of their incredible bass lines like in Jive Talking.

[@churchboy5827]

I will have to check that out

[@charleshouse6295]

Love the fact that your reaction along with your music knowledge was superb and appreciated.

[@marilyn4917]

I think you would really love to watch the video of the Bee Gees singing “You Should Be Dancing’. That was a big hit for them and in the video they add their younger brother Andy Gibb, who was starting his solo career at the time. It has an awesome beat and harmonies. Definitely a dance song and it was in the movie Saturday Night Fever.

[@GwenByrd-d4k]

They were inspired by a lot of singers.

[@brendawilson8208]

I was married one year (1977) before this was released in 1978. This song would have been in my wedding. Love, love, love the Bee Gees. I am a black female, 68 yrs. old, grew up with them. (A bit lengthy, but a must read.) The Bees Gees: (from left to right) Robin, Barry and Maurice (pronounced Morris) Robin (Dec 22, 1949 - May 20, 2012) passed away as a result of kidney failure. Maurice (Dec 22, 1949 - Jan. 12, 2003.) Passed as a result of a twisted intestine. He was in the hospital for 2 days. Barry said he had a heart attack, but the doctors still operated. Maurice and Robin were fraternal twins. Andy Gibb, the youngest brother, (not pictured) had his own successful career. He was 12 yrs. younger than Barry. He and Barry looked so much alike, that they could had been twins. Andy passed away in 1988, at the age of 30. He lived a lifestyle involving drugs, and he had heart problems. The brothers wrote all of his songs. Barry (middle) stated, "I am the last man standing." He was born September 1, 1946. He has 5 adult children and 7 grandkids. On September 1, 2022, he and his wife Linda celebrated their 52nd wedding anniversary. (They were married on his 24th birthday.) On a sidenote, the first born is their sister, Lesley, who was 78, January 12, 2023. Lesley didn't have an interest to be in the limelight, but she can sing. They wrote all of their own songs, and songs for other singers, which they sang after the songs were released for the other singers. He's the amazing thing, they could not read musical notes. This meant they were also awesome musicians and just played by ear. The brothers have a VERY IMPRESSIVE catalogue of songs! I recommend the following songs: Staying Alive kzbin.info/www/bejne/f5DMq6l3l814rrs For Whom the Bells Toll kzbin.info/www/bejne/gWa7mHSngrGFZ5Y Spirits (Having Flown) kzbin.info/www/bejne/jXnCm2xmm6h8oZY Closer Than Close kzbin.info/www/bejne/o2e7epegeq1_iNU One kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYO4loCdr7R2edE You Win Again kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYu8aqKPiLidfKs Bodyguard kzbin.info/www/bejne/fKmYiap_gKimadE Emotion (written for Samantha Sang) kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJDahY2gpJ6UsM0 (Destiny Child's cover has too much drama. But Barry liked it.) Our Love (Don't Throw It All Away) Andy Gibb kzbin.info/www/bejne/m3mZaWl6rt5kbNk At one time 5 of their songs were in the top 10. Another time, four of the songs that were written by them for others were in the top 5. A song that Barry wrote for Andy was #2, but then it went to #1, and the Bee Gees song became #2. They have sold more than 220 million records worldwide (I'm quite sure more by now.) Their musical inspirations are Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons; Russell Thompkins, Jr (Stylistics) William Hart, Jr (Delfonics) Brian Wilson (Beach Boys). I'm quite sure there are others, but these names are mentioned in several videos.

[@churchboy5827]

[@patriciatolliver4057]

Patty-They wrote R&B regardless what category the rest of the world put them. They always saw themselves as R&B writers.

[@DUGGER1947]

A perfect arrangement, perfect harmony, amazing range to their voices, especially Barry's voice who just started singing falsetto about halfway thru their career during the disco era. This song may have resulted in the conception of more children while parents were listening to it than any song ever, saving perhaps the instrumental Ravel's "Bolero."

[@aingealtara1479]

.. Them singing falsetto was actually a day in their studio when singing a song realising they would need a woman's voice.. Only they couldn't think of anyone who would fit in, and while they were playing around with their own voices, trying to see how high notes they could touch, they found their falsetto.. They tried out singing the whole song in falsetto and it worked so perfectly fine they decided to keep it that way.. And they did.. Before that, they sang with their normal voices, until that certain day..

[@KnutFan]

Among many other varied influences, ❤They were inspired by the falsetto in The Stylistics music.❤l❤

[@theaffiliate4208]

Ok, now that you have 'stepped in it' (BeeGees), time to check their biggest hit 'Staying Alive'.

[@michelebriere9569]

Barry is the oldest. Brothers Robin and Maurice, twins, both died in the early 2000s. Maurice, pronounced Morris, of a post-surgical medical error, and Robin of cancer a few years later. In this video, Maurice is on Barry's left, Robin on his right. Unusual lineup, for the boys, it's usually Mo, Robin, then Barry. Baby brother Andy, died early 80s from a heart complication. Check him out, too; he sang solo, even though his big brothers helped. You can find a few concert clips of Andy running out onto the stage to join them.

[@laurelcarter1573]

These brothers have been written their own music for over 50 years. They were just musical geniuses. Have a listen to Massachusetts or For Whom the bell tolls to hear Robin's vocals soar. For Maurice have a listen to Angel of Mercy with his daughter Sam.
