Massachusetts - Bee Gees - Guitar Instrumental by Dave Monk

"Massachusetts" is a song by the Bee Gees, released in 1967. Written by Barry, Robin & Maurice Gibb. Robin Gibb sang lead vocals on this song and it would become one of his staple songs to perform during concerts on both Bee Gees and his solo concerts. It later appeared on their 1968 album, Horizontal.
The song became the first of the group's five No. 1 hits in the UK, reached No. 1 in twelve other countries, peaked at No. 11 on the Billboard Hot 100 and eventually became one of the best-selling singles of all time, selling over five million copies worldwide. When the brothers wrote the song, they had never been to Massachusetts. In a UK television special on ITV in December 2011, it was voted third (behind "How Deep Is Your Love" and "You Win Again") in "The Nation's Favourite Bee Gees Song".

Lyrics
Feel I'm goin' back to Massachusetts
Something's telling me I must go home
And the lights all went down in Massachusetts
The day I left her standing on her own
Tried to hitch a ride to San Francisco
Gotta do the things I wanna do
And the lights all went down in Massachusetts
They brought me back to see my way with you
Talk about the life in Massachusetts
Speak about the people I have seen
And the lights all went down in Massachusetts
And Massachusetts is one place I have seen

I also like these ballads, especially when you play them in front of an audience and people sing along. Thanks for the inspiration Dave.

I have just seen your comment on this tune (Massachusetts) you made two months ago. I'm very sorry but I didn't see it before as it was classed as a spam message. Anyway, I'd like to accept your thanks and want you to know that getting great feedback like this is what its all about and makes it all worthwhile. So a big thank you to you for letting me know. Take care, Dave

High Dave Monkey Tonight, I'm listening to Busy's Masachusetsu, I've always liked this group, I've been listening to your performance, I've been listening to it nostalgic, even if I take it, your performance is smooth Even if I take the sound, I'm listening to it, and I feel sad and soak into my heart. Thank you for the wonderful performance even if I take it. I'll listen slowly.

Hi, Dave : Great sound here, and I agree, that the slower tempo and change of key are more suited to the message you're trying to convey, which is a tribute to Robin, who has left us much too soon. Wonderful job, Dave ! Regards, Dan.
