The Bee Gees - I've Gotta Get A Message To You (1968)

[@kelleysouviney9763]

They maintained their voices through the ages! Best group of our time!❤

[@leokimvideo]

Robins voice is haunting in this song. The Bee Gee's fully understood rock vocal harmonies like The Beatles and Beach Boys.

[@Noname-ni1dy]

Pre-disco BeeGees were incredible. They were still great in the disco era, but people forget how great they were before that.

[@suave-rider]

how can they "forget" what they never heard dickhead? There was no MTV or KZbin in the 70's

[@19GTO67]

I only discovered the Bee Gees at abut 10 years old, in 1975 with "Nights On Broadway", and I loved it. ( Not just because it's a great song, but I look forward to the Robin solo...such a unique voice.) Then, like you said, disco hit, and I still loved them, but thanks to KZbin, I have discovered their older stuff, and they're my favorite Bee Gee's songs. (Along with "Alone", which is one of my favorites. Much like Nights On Broadway, there is the Robin solo that I look forward to.)

How can one not love Robin's voice. Wow!

[@brianmouland209]

Totally unique

[@19GTO67]

See, I always thought I was unique in loving Robin's voice. I felt that Barry was more their "lead" singer, and that's who most people probably preferred. I love Barry's voice, regular, or falsetto. (Preferably regular). Anyways, I've always felt that Robin's voice, even though always on pitch, had an odd sound, almost like he was singing into a can. That may sound negative, but it's not. It's what made it so compelling, and so unique. I've always loved it. I just didn't realize that I wasn't the only one.

What is it about Robin fans that so often they want to single him out separate and apart from the group as a whole. You don't see Barry or Maurice fans going to those lengths like that which is especially odd given that Barry typically sang lead and his falsetto is what led to the bands hallmark sound.

His intelligence, eccentricity and wit were SO attractive. A mysterious and complicated guy and who doesn't like mystery? Add to that the voice of an angel, the lips, the eyes, etc., etc., etc.!
