People do not realize just how hard it is to keep to your melody line while someone else is singing an entirely different melody basically right in your ear. The BeeGees made it look frickin effortless.

[@teresakillday7131]

Maurice is awesome! He could do it all!!

[@dortheychastain2195]

Never try to pigeon hole the BeeGees into a certain sound. They are one of the most diverse groups ever in music. I think that's a big reason why their music spanned 6 decades. Love your reactions.

[@jeaniegrothause5824]

Nights on Broadway is where Barry discovered his valsetto. He was asked to scream in tune at the end of the song. After this he started using falsetto because it became a big seller of the disco tunes....

Baby, Maurice can do manyvoices. But no one sees him, the camera is on Barry all the time. Maurice is awesome, he's so underated.

Funny you should say that, because of all the Bee Gees, I was always drawn more to Maurice as well....he may not have been the obvious in your face hunk like Barry was, but to me he had such a cool strong vibe, that made him stand out!!!

[@jackielh1]

Maurice said when Robin and Barry sang together it sounded like one voice and people had a hard time figuring it out. Mo would jump in to harmonize just by instinct, fun fact they could not read music, they had no formal musical education they did everything by sound and creativity. Robin would also cup his ear in the earlier days to keep his voice centered before all the technology was available ❤

They could all sing falsetto. The brothers had immense Talent. And not all that Talent was revealed because Maurice left us so very early. Your amazement at their talent, would be very typical of those who do not like the Bee Gees. If they heard so much more than disco they'd realize the brothers we're a fantastic group. Oh how I miss them.

[@allisons3663]

Many people don't realize Barry had a powerhouse chest voice in additional to the soft breathy voice and the falsetto. Try "Lost In Your Love" from 1974. He really delivers a great soulful performance. Maurice only did the falsetto on the live version - Barry did it on the record. Another recommendation is "Run To Me" from 1972. Amazing harmonies.

[@yvette9181]

Lost In Your Love is a hidden treasure!! Great choice, Allison :)

now that's Maurice, doing the falsetto. Oh hell, they all have tricks up their sleeve.

[@conniebrown983]

This is the song where Barry’s falsetto was born!! They recorded this song and their manager listened to it and said, “it’s too bad one of you can’t scream in tune and add it to the background!” Barry said he would try it and Barry’s falsetto was then born!! This rabbit hole goes all the way to China baby!! Listen to the recorded version and you will hear the falsetto over the top! RIP Robin and Maurice, we love and miss you!!🫶

[@glennallen239]

This is the song that the Bee gees discovered their Falsettos. The Producer of the song asked if the Bee Gees could scream or make their voices sound excited. all three of the Bee Gees found their start of the Falsettos but Barry could do it longer and more sustained. Fanny Be tender with my Love was also a early version of the Falsetto. Barry said he tried to stop doing it in their songs but Robin and Maurice kept telling Barry he needed to keep doing it. That the fans loved it and they were getting lots of number 1 records.

You've just experienced the incomparable Bee Gees...one of the most versatile and accomplished groups to ever bless our ears. There's no range they couldn't master, each one of them could have been the "lead" singer and they still would have rocked it. Singers, songwriters, producers, musicians...they set the bar in every category! It's why people will be still listening to their music centuries from now. I just consider myself blessed to have experienced their success in real time.

Chad, Barry did the falsetto in this song originally, in the recorded version. This is the song where Arif asked if any of them would scream. Barry offered and did. In this live version, Maurice did it. They all could do falsetto but this song is where it began pretty much.

I grew up listening to the Bee Gees, & you have no idea how happy it makes me, to see the younger generation discover the music we fell in love with !!! Barry Gibb, in my opinion, has the best falsetto voice ever, & what makes it so incredible, is that in his falsetto, he also used his vibrato, which is very rare! Thank you so much for this, they were brothers, & Barry is the last one, but please review more of their music, you will not be disappointed, & they span over years, & crossed many genres 😍 I also believe, that if there is music in Heaven, it would sound like the Bee Gee's ❤️❤️❤️

[@susieq7401]

sandyleewhite - Robin's vibrato is far superior to Barry's and totally natural and when Robin belts it out like in "For whom the Bell Tolls" he blows Barry out of the water. That is not solely my opinion but exactly what Barry said himself. He said Robin's vibrato was heavenly. Robin could also sing falsetto and his register could go down to low baritone and even bass. Barry had more of a "pop" voice and Robin was more of a balladeer. I also grew up with the Bee Gees (born 1949 like the twins. :) )

[@janicetrimmell6897]

I know you have learned a lot about the brothers since November, but this song and this album are personal favorites. Of course there is no way to have only one favorite Bee Gee's song. You now know what a magnificent chest voice Barry had. The unexpected way he comes in on an upbeat on the word "Here" and the way "Broad" is so deliberate it almost sounds like two syllables; well I am in heaven, and have been since 1975. All the brothers were sublime. This is a Midnight Special appearance and Mo did the falsetto embellishments, since Barry was singing melody at that point in the song. Mo could do anything. Also, Barry and Robin in unison gives a totally distinct sound than either of them apart. That is especially evident in Fanny (Be Tender With My Love) on this same album. Thank you so much for reacting to this magic.

[@annettelane]

They grew and changed with the years and reinvented themselves

[@jillfromatlanta427]

My favorite BG song...not just the vocals but also the amazing bass guitar.

[@Katsem]

Barry had a super strong voice back In the day. Anyone who heard them in concert before Fever heard more powerful live vocals from Barry than on recordings. His live Run to Me was stronger. They put out a live album about that time that captures them in their early prime. Front row center, Omaha, late 70s. Thrill of my life.

[@humanbeing2420]

I'm not a Bee Gees fan - more an admirer - but man, I just love this song. Hands-down my favorite Bee Gees tune. Each section is brilliant. The intro: - dark D-minor tonailty + root bass line + wah pedal rhythm guitar + the piano accents = pure, quintessentially 70's genius. So tasty. The verse: Barry's commanding baritone ("Heeere we are / In a room full of strangers / Standing in the dark...."). Bad-ass. The bridge: major tonality + Robin's beautiful tenor. The chorus: I can't really describe in words precisely what is so great about it - it's just genius and it sticks in my head for hours every time I listen to it. Of course there's the awesome falsettos ("Blamin' it all (Ahhh blaming it all) / on the nights on Broadway..."). And I love that bass line. Then the gorgeous second bridge with the beautiful harmony vocals - the tempo slows to a near-crawl (I can't think of another pop song where that happens) ("Even if it takes a lifetime...")....gives me goosebumps. When I was a little kid growing up in the 70's I owned the double-LP "Here at Last - Bee Gees Live" and I would listen to this song over and over and over again. I tried to listen to the rest of the album but it was difficult because every time I took it out I had to hear Nights on Broadway. Total genius.

[@eduardooscar309]

@Knox Harrington I love your technical comment I like so much Bee Gees: Massachusetts, In the morning, I've started a joke, I saw a new morning, Melody fair, Lamplight, My world, Mr Natural, Voices, Nights on Broadway, Come on over, etc but my favorite is "ABBA", the Sweden pop group of 70s, the best group post BEATLES what do you think about them? do you hear ABBA songs? (like Waterloo, S.O.S., Mamma mia, Fernando, Dancing Queen, Money money money, Take a chance on me, Chiquitita, Does your mother know, Gimme gimme gimme, The winner takes it all, etc) Best regards from Argentina
