I Started A Joke by The Bee Gees

One of my favourites. A song of not being able to belong. Anyone who can remember growing up as a teenager will relate.

Never too young to enjoy good music. Words are clear. Meanings may have to be explained. Good on you🎉

[@philipdickey6460]

Lilly, love this song, some of their pre disco songs include, How Can You Mend A Broken Heart, Gotta Get A Message To You, Words, and my favorite To Love Somebody

Great song as there is so many to choose from the Bee Gees.

[@steevenfrost]

I also love First Of May.

[@laurainejones673]

Me too, I believe Barry wrote it about his dog? My favourite Bee Gee song I think.

I never heard this one by the Bee Gees before, it's a nice one. The Bee Gees had so many brilliant hits and their songs on the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack are just awesome. Great reaction as always guys 👍

I know they they played How Deep is Your Love at Robins funeral. I didn't know they played this one but I get it if they did. Beautiful harmonies . They've played a large part of my life growing up and still present day. They are timeless. Thank you for keeping their music legacy alive through the next generations.

They not only played it at Robin's funeral but his son said that he played it on Robin's deathbed.

[@laurainejones673]

@@Isleofskye that's lovely. Which son was that? Because he had 2 and a daughter ? 2 to Molly, I believe his name is Spencer, a very good musician/ singer and then the son he had to Dwina, RJ ? Robin was my favourite Bee Gee. I love his voice.

@@laurainejones673 Just found this on Google but it does not allow me to open up the page Laura: "Robin Gibb's son played this song just after his father died from kidney failure on May 20, 2012. Robin-John Gibb told The Sun: "When he passed away we went ........"

[@groover5524]

Love this song ! Thanks 😀

[@juliebabygirl]

Such a great song!! Robin really had that special melancholic voice like no other.. Maybe try "Juliet" by Robin Gibb also, a very haunting and melancholic song :)

[@sapphonymph8204]

That was nice.

[@blakesliberator3197]

Nice reaction to a nice song, with a not-so nice story! LOL!

[@scottsent8120]

I think that that video of Robin singing detracts from the recording's emotional punch, and shouldn't be watched as an introduction to it. This song should be listened to in one's bedroom, with eyes closed, and if there's any imagery, it should be imagined. It's later, after you love the song and want to see who's singing it that you watch a video.

That's how I feel about Just My Imagination by The Temptations. It's better to just listen to it.
