Maurice Gibb's vocals in the Bee Gees sound was very similar to George Harrison in the Beatles. The third voice that makes the other two blend together.

[@joekosobucki2141]

Plus he did all of the arrangements! Mo was the best!

[@lorettasmith342]

Wonderful...the guitar sound was superb... how sad we have lost him..... love them all god bless 😢😂😢

[@eileens4175]

You hit the nail on the head. Great analogy!

[@stelladowney6891]

Agree 100%

[@Juamo-tn8we]

Maurice’s voice was the “dries clear glue” that married all 3 of their voices together. You can’t see it but once you start paying attention you realize it.

[@Gary21259]

LOl. He made a fortune with an average voice. Born lucky into the right family.

[@code-52]

It's a beautiful comment You just made, and so true.

[@user20867]

I love Maurice's style. Love his humor and he had the widest,most friendly smile I've ever seen. This is a great song.

[@GabrielGarcia-300]

If you knew his history and things he's done, this song makes more sense. I like him out of the others, because I feel like I can relate to him more. I'm a middle child also. I feel like he's speaking through music

[@fitclean4553]

me too his style got me

[@rhondablackburn3713]

Yes he did ❤️

too young indeed.

MO is immortal ❤ just like the others

[@ownyourcrazy8734]

To be able to go back in time and warn Maurice and Robin of the birth defect (both had) so it wouldn't lead to Maurice's death. Robin had surgery to fix it years later, but it couldn't stop the cancer.

[@jebegbert]

We all love a Maurice. Someone who is talented who doesn't demand the spotlight but who is incredibly talented. Humble, willing to step back for the benefit of the whole. He did it.

The most underrated BG

[@marlenesullivan3113]

[@wmjohns881]

I had no idea that Maurice had an incredible lead voice. He has always added great backup and harmony voice. I wonder if it has mostly been his choice to remain in the background?

[@zenaidegarcia616]

Tinha uma vóz linda, ele sempre tão sereno!!❤ Que ele esteja em um lugar melhor que esse...

[@QuakerLady]

Maurice struggled for years with alcoholism. This song sounds like the first steps of recovery. Every time I hear it, that opinion grows stronger. And oh my, that voice.

[@JanWhorton]

Exactly right about MO’s song, being about the journey of his sobriety. 🎉 ❤ May all struggling with addiction be blessed! ❤ Prayers for every single one of you! 🎉 ❤ 😊

man in the middle was about him trying to get his wife to do threesomes with another woman,thats were he says man in the middle of they two of them,it nearly broke his marriage up.

@@amycrittendon3269 I am so glad to hear that you are doing so well, @amycrittendon3269. I pray your journey continues the same way too. I know how hard it is, from experience with some patients struggling to maintain their sobriety. May God bless you.I think a lot of Maurice too. I have struggles not related to substance abuse. No humans are perfect, so don't put yourself down as being weak. Just keep doing what you can to heal! (I'm playing my Doctor.) I will pray for you, Amy. 🙏 🌠🔯

What a great song. They just couldn't write a bad song.

[@marlenesullivan3113]

AGREED

[@alex2934]

I completely agree with you !

[@GabrielGarcia-300]

I put them up there with Dream Theater as being some of the best musicians. Only 5 groups outsold Bee Gees (two are Beetles and Paul McCartney which I can't stand)

[@teamtwe]

@@GabrielGarcia-300 😂😂😂 I can't stand them either.

[@lizcopp6789]

Maurice had a great voice and should have sung lead more often.

[@vanhess829]

Maurice found the perfect harmony to blend over & through the other voices providing the sweet sounds of the Bee Gees.

[@yoya4766]

Andy, Maurice, Robin R.I.P Imagine all the songs we have missed. Their catalogue is huge, even though all died too young. Just imagine how much the world has lost. Music is really the only thing that transcends all the crap in this world.

[@stephanieyee9784]

Mo's voice is deeper than Robin's and Barry's and is the perfect bridge between his brothers voices. His voice ties them together. 🎀

[@corilong8412]

Interestingly enough when I was a teenager I had a huge crush on Barry and Andy. However, since I’ve gone down the rabbit hole of watching everything Bee Gees recently I have switched my attention to Maurice! He’s so talented, has seemed to always be the peacemaker, and is truly funny and engaging. What an amazing man! Watching him talking about his struggles with alcohol and recovery is amazing and shows how strong and committed he is to being healthy and a good husband and father over anything else. I think he doesn’t mind being in his own space on stage while the others stand in the spotlight. I love him!

[@janicesnyder9305]

I think in some ways, that is what Maurice did on purpose. He left the other two to be the more popular ones, while in the background, he was stealing the show. Maybe he was shy and didn't like the limelight to be on him, I don't know. Maybe that is why he turned to alcohol and drugs, to hide his own insecurities. Whatever it was, he was the unseen cog that made the BeeGees wheel roll so smoothly.

[@ladycarmillasanguina]

@@janicesnyder9305 Wasn't it just alcohol regarding Maurice? Not that wasn't an issue, but I think it was Andy that was the most insecure one who turned to drugs to cope if memory serves.

[@dorothybrisbin4290]

You don't get to hear Maurice sing lead very often, but you can see that the Bee Fees wouldn't be the group they are without him.

[@aliciareneephillips956]

I knew he could sing, BUT DAMN!!!!! Great song Mo

[@PatWinn-k7i]

I will listen to these men for the rest of my life! They are all so different in every way: looks, presence and voices. Their voices are all very different and absolutely necessary to make the beautiful music that we love- Robin can hit those prolonged high notes, Barry plays lead, and Maurice hits the lower notes and oh, so magically!

[@anjoleahdupree1963]

Maurice was the one that kept it all aligned up between his brothers for when they sung their parts.

[@jessiemyrle4907]

The day Mo died the world lost a beautiful man, inside and out. RIP Mo I still miss you as do all of your friends, your family and your millions of fans❤️❤️

[@barbaraheinze9406]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️Maurice You were sexy and so funny. All your antics and teasing was loved . Barry was also sexy and had a good singing voice. I am 70 and love it when I go shopping and they would have the BeeGees music playing and that would brighten your mood as you could sing along. There mom and dad was so lucky to have much a musical family with talent galore. There 4 sons sang but not the sister

[@cababyboomerq6012]

These 3 were always very good at saying suggestive things that got the ladies imaginations going. In almost every interview or concert they did that. They knew how to work the female fans. And let’s face it, it’s good business.

This is nice now I can spot his voice in the trio better. Robins vibrato stood out, Maurice blends . Great song

[@chrisburrelljr9270]

Yeah I believe Maurice is more of the baritone voice in the trio Robin's voice is the high and Barry is the falsetto

Dear Maurice, you were like the good wine : you became better and charmer by the years !

[@lynnlobliner3933]

Maurice spoke in a conversation with Lynn Redgrave about his alcohol addiction and his going to rehab and living the sober life since (vid on YT). Once you know about it, and that he was drunk on stage most nights until he sobered up, you can see the difference in him in performances after 1993. He's more animated and into his music. Listen to the words to this. He wrote it shortly after he got sober.

[@KarenBerastequi]

Maurice was so very talented and he was a very modest individual!! Love all of the BeeGees!!
