[@seltaeb3302]

I've yet to see one complete show. Was it like Johnny Carson. It was essential as a band in or singer to be on it for America's approval & even the Beatles & to be fair he must have hated some bands like the Who but he allowed them on.

In Nov., 1972 I met this cute guy at a bar. We dated, and I wanted to see him again. So I bought tickets to see The Bee Gees at the Passaic Theater in Passaic, NJ and asked him out. It was a wonderful date and ended up married in April, 1975. The band played "Words" and "To Love Somebody" for me. Next April will be 50 years married.

I liked his natural voice much better. That falsetto was pushed by the record company, and by himself to compete with Robin. It caused him quite a lot of back and rib issues as the years went on.

Some accuse Barry of making his brothers (specifically robin) uncomfortable when they were probably uncomfortable with something else that didn’t have anything to do with Barry.

Bel vocal del più giovane Bene Gees

[@BGWhisperer]

@bethtaylor3004 I was born in 1970 and I didn’t pay attention to them either back then. How I so wish I had, now. I’ve always liked their songs, however.

[@diablo121675]

I just discovered this. It is a wonder Barry didn't start a trend with his tie. How clever he looks. How wonderful he sounds. I will always love the Bee Gees.

[@tekamclaurin]

Andy and Barry looked so much alike.

[@elizabethfranco1284]

When you realize Barry was just 20 when they made it big in America and Maurice and Robin were only 18 or 19 it blows the mind

[@alisonridout]

He was three years older than them

[@dennisg6599]

Agreed! The talent that these guys had just oozed out of them.

[@elizabethfranco1284]

@xiomara arias in an interview he said he met Linda on Top of the Pops in the Fall of 67 she was Miss Edinburg and was guest hosting. He says it was love at first sight

[@eightinches6094]

Members of the Beatles were very young also when they made it big in America. George Harrison was still only 20 when they appeared on the Ed Sullivan show and Paul had recently turned 22. Mick Taylor of the Stones was only 20 I believe when he joined the Stones from John Mayall's Bluesbreakers. The list of young musicians goes on and on.

the twins were only 17.... they were just babies in Australia when they got signed

Eternal beautiful song Barry’s voice is so beautiful and sweet ❤

[@Waterlooplein1]

I didn't know The Bee Gees made thought provoking songs before they got into disco.

[@Wellch]

My favorite BeeGees song.

[@BGWhisperer]

They didn’t get into disco. The disco craze took over their R&B songs. That’s what they consider those songs.

[@sherylbell6954]

Barry and Andy were identical twins born 12 years apart.

[@davidospina5216]

Hello Sheryl how are you doing today?

[@paanne1013]

Those two did look exactly alike. lol

[@JamesDevero]

As a guy, Barry more handsome, taller- broader shoulders. Andy was 5'8. No offense, he was still "dreamy" too. hehe. 😊

[@benhenderson8952]

*Oh my Stars, that is one handsome man* Much love Barry Gibb & condolences to his brothers 🕊 🕊

[@etoirandolph665]

It’s sad he lost all 3 brothers but I am sure they’re watching over him from heaven.

He is and was absolutely gorgeous.😊

Prince charming comes to mind

[@lilacgirl9332]

The Brothers Gibb, beautiful voices, excellent songwriters, and producers. Barry is handsome as well, talk about having it all.

What a pretty and adorable woman ,hello ,my sweetie ?

[@alinedearaujo9221]

Barry?! Oh my gosh, so gorgeous!

[@MelissaNgai]

Their music just brings you back to a slower time. So emotional.

[@heikebohne8864]

Hello, true Words. 🇩🇪🙋🏼‍♀️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@johncook7281]

Was the slower time because we were younger or -my opinion - we were without a twenty four hour news day and therefore work day. This a 8-10 hr. workday and eight hours sleep is better for the nervous system. This is shown in science studies. Peace and mellow Joy. Go with what you like best whenever possible.JC

[@Pink_Freud_Obscured_By_Crowds]

I love this time period of the brothers career. 1967 - 1973 they had a ton of great music. As I have been lucky enough to have found and bought all their albums, I have created a playlist of 157 Bee Gees songs during this period alone. Amazing talent and wonderful songs.

[@J-Dune]

@@Pink_Freud_Obscured_By_Crowds you might like the bro’s until 1978-80. After that they wrote hits for many singers

[@katie-didellis2437]

@@Pink_Freud_Obscured_By_Crowds I'm jealous! I have many of their more recent albums but not all. Some of the early ones have been lost in my many moves.

[@riadanabtawi5880]

I used to listen to this song a lot on radio going to college working on my MBA then , and coming home, you hear it from people carrying transistor radios sitting by the swimming. pool. I will be 79 in the next few months.

And he could have easily had a solo career. He was most of the group anyway. It's admirable how he stayed loyal to his brothers.

[@rmoore1686]

Handsome Barry with his beautiful voice. I know he’s always driven the ladies crazy.

[@beckymorgan6591]

I remember watching this in the late 70's for an Ed Sullivan special. I was blown away by how much he and Andy resembled each other.

[@alexandreneves445]

Barry Gibb performed this live. Nowadays, singers can barely sing "in" studio, imagine doing this live as Barry's doing? Impossible.

[@lyricberlin]

oh stop whining...there are plenty of singers today that can sing live. Robin was 1000x better singer than Barry anyway

[@jerrybrown5676]

Barry is a very kind man even though I do not know him personally. It is based on the fact that he mentioned his brother's love child at the funeral. I think it takes a very great man to do that.

[@BGWhisperer]

It’s one of the things I like most about him. He seems respectful to everyone, no matter their station in life. He’s a good older brother, good husband, and father. He speaks well of fans. Many singers and celebrities treat fans as beneath them, and a necessary evil. Barry genuinely loves to share their music with the fans and loves to see them enjoying their songs. He generously gave his bros credit on songs even if they only contribute a word or two. He just seems to be a genuinely good guy. My husband, when I told him how generous he is with songwriting credits, said, no wonder the Bee Gees lasted so long, instead of people wanting to leave. I’ve seen singers with huge egos, and if Barry has one he disguises it well. If he’s a prima donna he disguises it well.

[@Александра-с6ю2ь]

​@@BGWhisperer Вы совершенно правы! Все, кто с ним общался и общаются до сих пор, говорят, что он совершенно простой, открытый, дружелюбный человек, без какого либо пафоса или напыщенности супер-звезды!!!

Barry's phrasing is impeccable and impressive. Love the song and the group.

[@suzannedickson7522]

I absolutely love way Barry licks his lips in some of the older videos. It drives me crazy.

He flutters his eyes a lot, too.

[@teresadavis528]

The other thing about Barry Gibb, he has that charm and stage presence in anything that he sings and wears on stage that is effortless. This man could come out performing in a hefty bag and I still would think he's sexy. Then all the fuss on the Saturday Night Fever album seems to overshadow all of the other great albums they put out before and after. The Bee Gees were so much more this one album. I wish critics would stop pigeonholing the Bee Gees as a Disco group. I like the fact that they can have funk, soul, R&B, soft rock and country songs all on one album. Examples of this are albums Main Course, Children of The World and Spirits Having Flown.

[@squishmastah4682]

You get it.

I swear, Andy could have been Barry’s twin. He looked so much like him. ❤

Every time I see Barry when he was this young it amazes me again how much he and Andy looked so much alike.

[@dianebradley597]

Barry has said that he and Andy were as much twins as Robin and Mo were.

[@jordansummers2790]

They sure do & sound alike. Only 1 brother left...just too sad to think about so I just listen to the past.

Such personalities at such young ages. Bee Gees are adorable but Robin takes the prize ❤. All.... so talented. Barry and Maurice ❤
