MY FIRST TIME HEARING The Bee Gees - Time Is Passing By (1960) *REACTION VIDEO*

[@bgvan37]

Just love when youngins finally hear our music 🎶

[@sukioki6983]

All i see are their teeth lol. They are all so precious

[@jokuz9133]

BEAUTIFUL reaction young lady

[@starlightperkins330]

Who knew that seven years later these three young lads would have the world at their feet? The reason the Gibbs are living in Australia at this time during their childhood is because these boys were bad...LOL! Literally. They were living in England, but they were getting in all kinds of trouble. They were setting fires, pulling all kinds of pranks. They were on the path of becoming juvenile delinquents, and a cop suggested to their parents that they should seriously think about moving before things really got bad for them, so the family packed up and moved to Australia.

[@nelerhabarber5602]

Barry was 14 here, you can hear his voice was breaking! 😂, the twins 11. I always admired his strength of character even as a teenager. Not many 14 year olds would have walked in front of an audience with their little brothers, most would have been "embarrassed" at that age! Mo said in an interview, Barry is a very compassionate person, a very loving person, very protective. And if they asked him, what they would do when they grew up, he said they would be famous and Mo believed him because he was the older brother! 😄

[@RuthBair-ht1fj]

They began performing in 1958 in clubs and then at a motor speedway between races. Amazing talents. Love your reaction. Happy birthday Barry and Happy Anniversary Barry & Linda❤

[@bettyartis3648]

They worked so hard from a young age. Separately amazing but together sublime! 1989 Medley live in Melbourne is tremendous too! Loving all your Bee Gees reactions 😊

[@Kknightmcc]

They were all self taught on instruments along with their vocals and songwriting. They started singing together at 9 and 6 years old.

[@michaelv9929]

The Early Bee Gees sound like a WHOLE New Bee Gees group…also very good! I know alot of their music….but 1st time hearing this! ❤it Mee-Gee

[@kthor]

Amazing to think this was written by Barry when he was 12 years old.....TWELVE!☺️

[@Buffbino]

There is an interview that the Bee Gees did in 1983 with English personality Noel Edmonds called the "Late Late Breakfast Show." Noel surprises them by showing this exact 1960 clip that you're watching -- their reaction is such an adorable mix of amusement and complete embarrassment. Try watching it, just for fun!

[@susieq9801]

I chuckled when you said "Innocence". The police in Manchester suggested they move to Australia because Barry was on parole for theft at 12 and Robin threatened with reform school for arson. They were terrors but thankfully they changed course and the world was blessed by their talents. They knew what they wanted to do and they went for it. I think when the Gibb boys were born they even cried in harmony! Barry almost had to be a substitute father because their dad 's work as a "bush photographer" kept him away so often.

[@sharonstephens5447]

Correction he was never on parole, but his parents were advised by the authorities that both Robin and Barry could end up facing serious consequences for their behaviour which ultimately influenced the move to Australia. All three brothers have repeated the same in interviews.

[@susieq9801]

@@sharonstephens5447 - Barry was on probation. I don't understand the comparative terminology so my apology.

[@ColpixLuna]

subscribed for your Queen reactions, so delighted to see you covering Bee Gees (esp. EARLY Bee Gees) as well 😀

[@leonbrown4634]

Mia with another 🔥reaction!!!!! You are opening the eyes of people who would never took the time to give different genres of music a chance, Thank you!!!!!!! The Bee Gees are 🔥, tight harmony, there stage presence is a amazing

[@michaelrayii7102]

I never knew they were around so long! I'm speechless! Great reaction Mia!❤

[@Isleofskye]

There is an even better video of them from that era showing them singing 2 songs including "My Old Man's A Dustman" and it really shows off Robin's personality.:)

[@lauriebarnes2999]

Mia, great reaction! Glad you're doing Bee Gees week and helping to keep their legacy alive. When you reacted to their 1963 performance I suggested that you skip ahead two years later and react to "Wine and Women". Boy, did they ever do some growing up in those two short years! I know you'll enjoy reacting to this wonderful original song just as much. Love you and your Bee Gees reactions! ❤️

[@susieq9801]

Yes!

[@lisak2580]

I love them. Robin especially is so stinkin cute in this video. Precious ❤

Another beautiful reaction to the Bee Gees . Yes adorable and talented sums them up here for sure!

[@barry0709]

Please react to CHILDREN OF THE WORLD by the BEEGEES thanks

[@willow_wise]

They were so talented right from the start! Thanks for showcasing the early years! Check out "I Was a Lover, a Leader of Men" also from the Australia early years. I do believe Barry won a writing award for it.

barry gibb and michael jackson all in your name

[@jayeginn5963]

I love your journey down the rabbit hole and your reactions are soooo heartfelt. The BeeGees were: the tallest and oldest brother (with the big hair and beard), Barry Gibb, born September 1, 1946, the only surviving Gibb brother. Robin Gibb (with the long hair, no beard), born December 22, 1949-passed away May 20, 2012, and Robin's fraternal twin brother Maurice (the balding brother with the beard, pronounced "Morris") Gibb, born December 22, 1949-passed away January 12, 2003. They also had another, younger, brother Andy Gibb, born March 5, 1958-passed away March 10, 1988. The three oldest brothers were born on the Isle of Man (UK). Oldest brother Barry got seriously burned when he accidentally pulled boiling tea over himself at 18 months old. He was in coma for a while, nearly died and was in hospital for many months. Because of this, he did not learn to talk until after the twins were born. Later the family moved to Manchester and from there they emigrated to Australia in 1958, right after Andy was born. All 4 brothers are just natural musical talents. All of them dropped out of high school in their early teens and none of them could read or write music. All their compositions were created completely organically. Their musical career, which they had started as little kids, didn't lead to international success so they moved back to the UK in 1966. Then they had a string of big hits, until they temporarily broke up around 1970 for 15 months. Started back up, looking for a new sound which they first found in 1974 with the transitional album "Mr. Natural". After that "Main Course" was the first album that moved them into a new direction: more rhythm&blues, dance music like with great hits like Nights on Broadway and Jive Talkin' (and was also actually the first album on which their logo was introduced). From 1976 on they went all out with falsetto driven dance music which lead to their biggest commercial success as they provided classic songs for the Saturday Night Fever Soundtrack (1977 Stayin' Alive, How Deep is Your Love, Night Fever amongst them). You should react to the 1979 live version of Stayin' Alive, too kzbin.info/www/bejne/bZ_MiYaebNuKiKs Other great songs to analyze: great album tracks from the 1979 Spirits Having Flown album, the title song: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jXnCm2xmm6h8oZY, the outrageously beautiful song Reaching Out kzbin.info/www/bejne/rJerhoZrgstjZrM. From their Still Waters album, Smoke and MIrrors: kzbin.info/www/bejne/g4Wcp4V-iLyBmM0. From the 1960's I've gotta get a message to you kzbin.info/www/bejne/eXKXdHykedOHoZo. And from the 1990's the simple song Blue Island live in an accoustic version: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z2eVeJ93etWZqLs. Andy was kind of Barry's mini me, about half a foot shorter and 12 years younger but they were the only lefties of the family. However, his voice was nowhere near as broad in range or as strong as Barry's. As producer Alby Galuten said in the book "Tales of the brothers Gibb "Andy's falsetto was nowhere near Barry's." Andy had a lower, huskier, sound to his voice and his range was not as big as Barry's. I personally always thought his voice was much better suited to songs of his first album, Flowing Rivers. Andy died of myocarditis - which is an inflammation of the heart - on March 10, 1988, 5 days after his 30th birthday. His heart had been weakened by his drug addiction over the years which, by the way, was also the main reason for his split from Victoria Principal. He also had a congenital heart problem that was later also discovered in Barry and Barry's second son Ashley. Try listening to the song Dreamin' on kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y3zHc4mBmLiGidk which is kind of a duet with Barry. And here are the 4 brothers live on stage in 1979 doing You Should Be Dancing kzbin.info/www/bejne/lWewg2B7lLatsJI And finally a few photos of Barry and Andy: i.postimg.cc/jS6n3Jkv/Barry-Andy.jpg and i.postimg.cc/TwnPh8M0/82c126fc42a35d3b737867af41338199.jpg and the 4 brothers with their mother i.postimg.cc/FRNMbwkD/b9b2561eadffee11347573c97063c2f8-zpsd89478eb.jpg

[@dawndeleon3765]

In 1960, if it was before September, then Barry was 13, and the twins were 10. Yes, they had the magic from birth.

[@chuckragland9972]

Hello Mia! First one Watching! 😀

[@stevegodfrey44]

I'm adorable and talented at the same time and have been all of My life 👊🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@tinakeith5822]

Barry was 12 and the twins were 9 here! Their mom made their outfits. And I believe their dad was their manager. The song that they sang after this one is fun! It’s call my old man! You should do a week of songs with the same title but different songs by different artists. Like “Alone” by The Bee Gees and then by Heart and by the Four seasons . Or “one” by The Bee Gees and then by Metallica. For example….

[@wendyryder2708]

Barry was 14 and the twins were 11!

[@fanmael1]

They were living at 23 Colin Street Lakemba in Sydney at this time. Just one street away from where I grew up in Fairmount St. Great memories.

[@lauravettoretti1323]

Mo did say in an interview that he remembered being extremely nervous for that performance. I've been a fan since the late 60's. They could adapt and change with the times. Each era provided something special. It's so sad that it ended all too soon💔. Makes me happy when new fans discover the immensity of their talent. Thank you 🎶

[@rbaruah8790]

If Maurice seems a little off it's because he apparently got a clip in the ear from his dad just before they came on......Maurice admitted that in an interview decades later......

[@Kiwiklassic]

Barry was 14 and the twins were 11 years old. Aren't they adorable and very talented. Barry told to twins that when they got older they were headed for fame and fortune, the twins were about 9 at the time and agreed with Barry as he was the eldest so it must be true!!

[@CharlesWrice-qw6yg]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@dubivxler]

[@HeatherMyfanwyTylerGreey]

The twins would be 11 years old here and Barry would have been 13/14 depending on rime of year.

[@NoahSmith-r7u]

Berry turned 4 the day my mom was born. She was born 9/1/50. I wonder if she knows that.

Thanks for another great reaction, Mia!! Would highly suggest FIRST OF MAY from 1969 for the next Bee Gees reaction....& think most fans would agree! Hands down they're just the best group ever!🎶 kzbin.info/www/bejne/gqKlY4iOorKNftUsi=wQzwERRBSAW08pqF
