The Bee Gees Real-Life Story Is Absolutely Tragic

[@GrungeHQ]

What's the best Bee Gees song?

[@jaysinger9941]

“Too Much Heaven”. Best Andy Gibb song: “Shadow Dancing”

[@jewell92]

The song Islands in the stream was written by them. It is my favorite. How Do You Mend a Broken Heart was good, as well.

When Robin did temporarily quit in 1969 he recorded an absolutely superb LP called 'Sing slowly sisters' and it's so sad he never saw it receive the acclaim it deserved during his lifetime.

[@optimisticoutreach1236]

Robin ribbits his way to fame on the shoulders of his brothers. He is the inspiration for the movie "Twins".

[@joeyricci3796]

Neil Supernaut - Robin's first solo album ever was "Robin's Reign", which was released in February of 1970 (I believe). "Sing Slowly Sisters" wasn't released back then, even though it was recorded in April of 1970.

[@_germanikus_]

@@joeyricci3796 Later they said that this break was not bad. Barry said that after that they were men, before it they were not really grown up. And while Robin made his own music, Barry and Maurice still performed songs as the Bee Gees. Songs like "Don't forget to remember"

[@beeharbour]

@@_germanikus_ Sometimes it's hard to separate fact from fiction with the Gibb boys. They are not reliable reporters of their own lives. Barry also said he never forgave Robin for leaving the band. I imagine that like most of us their memories are tied to their current mood and circumstances. I don't think they any of them were really hard liars and they never were self- aggrandizing in their not-quite-in-line-with-reality recollections. I cast no stones though because the first memory I have (and it's very clear) did not happen.

In '88 the Bee Gees announced that Andy would join the band but he died before he could fulfill his role

[@beeharbour]

No they didn't but it's commonly stated otherwise. Andy was never going to be in the Bee Gees if only because Robin and Maurice would have to have been idiots to have allowed it. The battles about lead vocals was a gigantic issue from day 1. Andy was going to sing some leads as well I would imagine. Why would the twins want mini-Barry to join when they were already unhappy with a number of things that went on in the band that would be made worse by Andy' presence and Barry's frequent statement that he liked Andy better than his other two brothers. I don't suppose there is any reason to buy this tale since I'm sure I have nothing much to offer but other 3rd parties who may not have been any more reliable than the ones you have access to. It makes perfect sense though. In any case even Barry said Andy needed to be clean before the matter would even consider joining the band. At least in theory he was still moving along with a new solo album. It is a bit odd to me that he was with Robin to pretend to write songs when you'd have expected he would more likely been with Barry. They had such success with Andy's first album that would seem logical. As well, Barry didn't really trust Robin to do a blessed thing right and he was probably correct in the sense that I'd guess Robin was not as stern a taskmaster as Barry would have been. Robin had not been clean long himself. It might not have been the best idea to send a very active addict to live with an ex-addict still very much in a precarious spot himself.

I agree with this. While I found I could sympathize deeply with Barry and find solace with his story - as I buried both my brothers at 44 and 63 and both my parents are gone - at least Barry has a lovely wife and five kids and grandkids and more money than he can ever spend in many lifetimes. He is very blessed. I am too as I have a wonderful husband, two grown boys and an awesome grandson. Most will have tragic lives, if they should live long enough. BTW, he still has a sister, right? So he has a sibling left. Has he made peace with her? At 74 he is probably also mourning his past fantastic career. What a life he must have lived!

There are lots of errors in this report starting with failing to mention that Robin learned arson from his big brother Barry and it was Barry's car theft charge that got the family the invitation to leave England and to do so promptly.

While in Australia Barry skipped an entire year of school without Ma and Pa Gibb even noticing; I kind of admire him for that.

[@giannafrancis5176]

In an interview I saw Robin described how their dad was away much of the time photographing families that lived in remote areas of Australia. He also told about how their mom wasn’t feeling well at that time, having to spend a lot of time resting in bed. With financial struggles and living away from extended family, those years must have been really difficult. For their parents anyway - the kids had each other and seemed to thrive for the most part.
