First Time Hearing Stayin' Alive Bee Gees Reaction (MY BANANAS!) | Dereck Reacts

BEE GEES FOREVER ♥️🇮🇹

[@Triumph-nz8pt]

The Bee Gees owned everything. everywhere they went, their walk was 'the' power walk of that decade. They just exude confidence, its amazing for me to watch. I wish I had that confidence. Any man who can walk, sing, strut like that while wearing white jeans...that's it for me! Sorry I am a huge fan of The Bee Gees and Barry, of course. There is so very much more, I truly hope you do more and I'll will be right here for it, several times xo Luv ya Dereck! (pls do For Whom the Bell Tolls - live in New York under the bridge-you'll see Robin showcased here, it's lovely) thank you!

[@fiineval5232]

Yes the power walk. It helped me walk home after long shift and made me feel more confident in many times notably with my a levels and final exam at uni. This song is so precious to me.

[@Triumph-nz8pt]

@@fiineval5232 Yes, I hear you and feel the same way!!

[@briantschayot]

How could you have never heard this?! BeeGees are sooooo awesome... saw Barry Gibb in concert about 4 years ago and he still has the falsetto 💯 amazing! So sad the brothers are gone... but just epic!

[@thewalruswasjason101]

Agree with you on the dancing… if you listen to this and don’t move, your soul is officially dead. And you’re right about the instrumentation…the production on this and all their songs is tops

Yeah I find that hard to believe especially since he reacts to music all the time.

Impossible que tu n'aies jamais entendu ce chef d'œuvre. C'est devenu un standard utilisé tout le temps dans les publicités, les films, les séries, etc.

[@SCharlesDennicon]

Le gars se fout de la gueule du monde. Comme pas mal de "réacteurs", il a juste soif de vues et est prêt à simuler toutes les réactions que ça nécessite.

[@maxouf1]

Un certain nombre de ses vidéos ne sont probablement pas ses "premières" écoutes et il écoute sans doute chaque nouveau titre une 1re fois avant de tourner ses vidéos. Mais pour certains titres français notamment c'est impossible qu'il les aient entendus plus "tôt" dans sa vie avant qu'ils ne lui aient été recommandés dans des commentaires (il y en a certains - rares certes - que je n'avais jamais entendus, ou bon nombre pas depuis des années et des années), donc il a au moins le mérite de les ressortir des cartons, de les remettre en avant, de les faire découvrir à sa communauté qui n'est pas que française (même si en vrai on clique surtout sur les vidéos de titres qu'on connait déjà) 😉

[@poulgoa]

This song is an iconic classic, Dereck Reacts. The music brings you to dance. The awesome falsetto voices cause you to sing along soulfully. And John Travolta walking sexily to this song holding a can of paint in "Saturday Night Fever," propels you to fly! These were the BeeGees, Co-Founders of Disco Pop! What an incredible group of artists. Check out more of their discography. You might even sprout angelic wings!

The story behind the songs for Saturday Night Fever is amazing.

[@carlawiberg6282]

The pace of this song, combined with its title, has made it the global no.1 tool for teaching and learning to do CPR correctly, and thus has saved many, many lives. There's also a Queen hit with the right pace, but it's considered less suitable for heart attack situations because of its title: "Another one bites the dust"...

[@arsennelupin584]

Tonight at Dereck it's disco party 👍👍

[@danfrost3043]

I can't believe you've never heard of this song, even my 12yo neice knows this song.

[@DereckReacts]

Growing up I was around my parents listening to old school salsa, merengue on latin radio stations. Disco never happened for me, and it was music I never really sought to discover in my own time

[@JI04]

[@kathieovercash8414]

When they called to ask them to write for this movie they were in the middle of an album and they were told the idea for the movie and they said we have some already written that might work so they flew to where the brothers were, heard the songs and it became history.

[@kathieovercash8414]

Robin has a beautiful haunting sadness to his voice. The songs I Started A Joke and How Do I Mend A Broken Heart both have to do when egos started clashing after their first taste of fame and they split up when Robin left the group and it was almost two years before they talked.

[@Elibel77]

This is filmed on the set of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid film, stars Paul Newman and Robert Redford. ;)

[@JJfromPhilly67]

You are quite right, if you hear this song and don't start dancing/moving when you hear this song, you need to take a look at your soul. Side note (although plenty of you may have mentioned this), if you need to do CPR for someone, chest compressions should be done to the beat of "Staying Alive."

[@lalynette7874]

❤❤❤

[@francisxray9900]

Phenomenal bass-lines by Maurice and guitar-riff by Alan Kendall. Drums? They produced a drum-loop and used it also on other songs of that period. Their drummer, Dennis Bryon left the studio because his mam passed those days. When he returned, hearing that drum-loop, he didn't want to get it out of the game. Only made some additional cymbals and percussions.

[@rickjr37]

This was filmed during a break in filming of “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band”. There’s an alternate video version where Barry has no beard or ‘stache.

[@sexysadie2901]

I can't imagine him without his facial hair.😂

[@dp3396]

No beard in 60’s videos, and there’s one for NIGHT FEVER with no beard.

[@allisons3663]

Robin looks a little scary in that alternate video, but the 70's special effects in that one are pretty cool.

[@davidleleu4596]

Dereck, I Can't Believe You did not Hear Stayin' Alive Before...

[@MrFloppyHare]

It's obviously nonsense. He sang the lyrics along at certain points.

[@dp3396]

[@sarablack2547]

There was a film by MGM called that's entertainment in 74.a completion film of clips from MGM musicals to celebrate MGM's 50th anniversary filmed on their backlot and was one of the last movies to be filmed there using old stars to do intros I remember gene Kelly doing intros next and in this train.

[@LetsChillPage]

It makes you want to put on the white suit, the black shirt, the black heeled ankle boots, and spin the mirror ball. 🤩 It"s the disco turning of the Bee Gees who previously sang rather pop. The singer had the idea to change his voice by going very high in the octaves (falsetto voice) for this new style of music that was included in their record repertoire. The success was immediate, the film helping, they saw themselves propelled to the rank of superstars. Their career having started 20 years ago, they had already made some big hits before, like "I Started A Joke" (released in 1968, a beautiful song) for example, which had ranked very well in the charts. You must watch the movie "Saturday Night Fever" (with John Travolta very young et the time) from which "Stayin Alive" is extracted.

[@glennallen239]

The American Red Cross uses Stayin Alive to teach CPR. The beat to the song matchesthe Compression rae needed for CPR. The other song that works is by Queen Another One Bites The Dust. That matches as well. The Red Cross prefers the more positive outlook Song.

[@JI04]

In France too we use more Staying Alive and the lyrics match with the purpose of doing CPR LMAO

[@ANNEAVES]

What a song !!!!!!

[@gaylaliles4095]

Love. Love it!

[@VideosSmokin]

When I saw "stayin alive" I thought it was a reaction to my sound which is a remake by "Y.A.S. feat. Mirwais". I hope he does their version soon.

I sometimes wonder how you would react to the 70's children shows, which included lots of music, especially, "The Bugaloos" .... I think they would peel your bananas!!!!! LOL PS--- in case you didn't know, Barry didn't start out using his vibrato voice. He began using that register in the 70s, and stayed with it because it became their signature and unique sound.

Barry Gibb has had more #1 hits than any other artist (besides Paul McCartney) between the BeeGees, collabs with Barbara Streisand and Dolly Parton, Samantha Sang, etc., writing the Grease soundtrack, etc. etc. Such an incredible talent!!!!

[@Rage_Harder_Then_Relax]

Elvis would have something to say about that. And they only wrote one song for "Grease" Not the whole album. Same with Saturday Night Fever and the follow up Stayin' Alive soundtracks.

[@allisons3663]

The official video fades out early because there is an INSANE high note near the end of the album version. This song was everywhere, and probably suffered from overexposure at the time because throughout the 80's you never heard it on the radio, as with pretty much all Bee Gees songs. Sad commentary on censorship.
