One of the greatest singing groups ever .But the songwriting of Barry was terrific. Love this song.

[@Zlata1313]

A large % of their music waa written by all 3.

[@scottabernethy1093]

Lonely days/ lonely nights

[@joeyrobison6629]

This song was pre-disco Bee Gees, released in 1971. "Jive Talkin'" released 1975, was the beginning of disco Bee Gees. This is my favorite song of theirs.

[@sammyholloway334]

Thats a great term, im stealing it. "Pre disco bee gees"

[@stanleynowak9325]

Thank you! There are more non-disco songs than disco.

[@AlamoDame7]

One of their most covered songs. This is their make-up-after-the-break-up song. When Robin and Barry re-united in 1971, they wrote this to express their feelings about their Bee-Gees break-up. Of course, it can be a romantic make-up song as well, or as a grieving time after the passing of a loved one contemplation, because, after all, "no one ever tells you about the sorrow."

[@gaylaliles4095]

Yes. The brothers missed each other and realized that they were better together than as solo artists.

[@kathybwell]

Next best thing to listening to a song for the first time is watching you and other reactors experience with the hits of our youth for the 1st time!! Those iconic tunes of the '60s, 70s, & 80s - nothing else like 'em!! :D

[@doriwiljt]

I know. It brings me joy and great memories

[@grobinson7507]

I was very young when this came out, I remember all the words, my Mom played their music all the time. Great memories

[@TechnicallyTexan]

I love how their harmonies actually TELL the story. Musicology 101.

[@cwasatko5601]

Robin's voice is always perfect! This was years before disco.

[@axelpenn2131]

Early Bee Gees, incredible harmonies iconic voices I Started AJoke,Words!! To mention a few..

[@VIDSTORAGE]

The Bee Gees were a progressive rock band before they were known as a Disco Trio ..They had a versatile style like many had at the times of the 60s and 70s . One of my favs is South Dakota Morning ,it is basically an acoustic country folk song .. To Love Somebody ,it is a rock ballad ..They did it all

[@johnnosiennek7066]

Chod you can't go wrong with a Bee Gees song IMHO

[@k_salter]

Great reaction, CHOD. There isn't an era of the Bee Gees I can't love. This song was about getting back together after they had a brief breakup. You might want to also check out "Lonely Days" (studio version). It was written right after "Mend" and appeared on the same album. This song was their first U.S. number one on the Billboard Hot 100 and was number 5 overall for 1971. There's so much more to check out.

[@davidhohn9106]

You should consider reacting their brother, “ Andy Gibb” he was great as well.

[@toddholmes2290]

Bee Gees - sooo many gems 💎 .. this is one of many. Sooo soothing. 😌

[@joannevincent2035]

'Lonely Days', 'New York Mining Disaster 1941' - or better yet - the performance video 'Live In Las Vegas, 1997 - One Night Only'. The Bee Gees are timeless - harmonies never, ever fail to lift the spirit - and the lyrics are transcendent!

[@kathystammen3060]

A beautiful masterpiece! Jesus broke the mold when Robin and Maurice left this earth!😥

[@sherigrow6480]

I recommend one of their earliest songs, Lonely Days, Lonely Nights (Where Would I be Without My Woman). We'd play the 45 when we had sleepovers. I had a BeeGees poster on my bedroom wall, before the days of disco. Those were the days,

[@styles2980]

BEE GEES wrote this, but Al Green really makes this song hit way harder for me. I love this version too, so I have them both on my travel playlist.

[@leticiaserna2924]

Fanny be tender with my love is another great song by the Bee Gees.

[@MadisonD941]

Now, you have to experience this sung by the reverend Al Green. It even has the Hammond organ.

[@bruins5683]

Check out Lonely Days. Another superb vocal performance.

[@celiagorleski2716]

This song came out in early 70s when I was in college. I love this song and still have the 45rpm record.

[@dougnelsin1480]

The main reason I watch reaction videos is because watching someone experience for the first time what I experienced many years ago listing to this stuff. It makes it feel (in a way) like it's new to me again. Especially if I haven't heard the song in a long while. It's a new way for me to enjoy what is old. I'm just getting older. The music on the other hand is timeless. Please keep passing it along. There is peace in music.

[@usmadgirl3074]

I completely agree! The younger generations are just starting to enjoy what they missed...REAL music & REAL talent from REAL people, not technology assisted!

[@tgforty5]

A lot of credit for the sound of the pre-disco Bee Gees has to go to Bill Shepherd, who produced all the strings and orchestral arrangements. His arrangements turned all these songs into beautiful works of art.

[@hongfang2508]

How Do You Mend a Broken Heart was recorded BEFORE the disco period. BeeGees are an R and B band at their core as this song demonstrates. They were just good at writing disco hits for the brief period that disco was popular.

[@timothycook2917]

Big #1 song in the US exactly 50 years ago. Ironically, the song didn't even chart in their native England

[@malus.8833]

I love them, credit to Robin, I love his voice, of course everyone has a fave, but there's 1 song that give me the vibe "You Should be Dancing", my fave is Tragedy, there's a documentary how they made the vocals, instrumental and lyrics, just amazing.

[@thepunadude]

GREAT HARMONIES ... ESPECIALLY FROM ONE FAMILY ... WE MAY NEVER SEE SUCH TALENT AGAIN

[@jskit92380]

Hi Chod, thanks for listening to their pre-disco song. I would like to recommend To Love Somebody and Lonely Days, great tunes. Thanks. Janet from Louisiana ☮️🖤🤟

[@veliasalazar8678]

Wilbur you have me crying this was my mom's favorite song. I played at her funeral.

[@timetravellingone]

Barry had a great song called 'Alive" from 1972's "To Whom it may concern"

[@thomasshreve750]

Pre-disco Bee Gees

[@rwilson7197]

Yes, they certainly were more than just disco. They are my favorite music group. Great reaction!❤ Please react to: Alone I Cant See Nobody How Do you Mend a Broken Heart Nights on Broadway Fallen Angel Love So Right Embrace I Saw a New Morning Love You Inside Out Morning of My Life Emotion ( with Samantha Sang) Too many to mention them all! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@steve9199]

Al Green does a very nice version of this song as well. It's worth checking out.

[@maryblum8365]

The first time they came back together they wrote this song and Lonely Days in one night. This is about them coming back together again. Beautiful song

[@stanleynowak9325]

They do rock too. Listen to Tragedy. That is their best song in my humble opinion. Quite often it was their encore song. In fact try "Live in Las Vegas, 1997-One Night Only"

[@negf22]

The Bee Gees have a song for every occasion. Check out songs from the 90’s the album Still Waters; Alone, I Surrender ( starts out acapella), Still Waters Run Deep, I could not love you more, I Will. Also, this one has a beautiful orchestral intro and a great message, “Be Who you are”, it is from the Album Living Eyes…has other great songs as well.😎

[@glennburch1081]

Barry and Robin wrote this song. Did not care much for thier disco era, but this is one of my favorite songs of all time. Robins vocals on this song just transports me away from reality and into a state of euphoria.....everytime I hear it! Kind words on the reaction, TY

[@shanehenderson8756]

Amazing brothers . Such talent.

[@kathieovercash8414]

One thing I love these guys is something will usually appeal to everyone. There are so many people in your video list that have recorded their songs. They've written over 1,100.

[@StevenW1958]

I was 12 years old in 1971 when this song was released. I loved it so much. This song ranked #25 on New York City’s AM Radio station 77WABC’s top 100 of 1971. It also ranked #5 on Billboard’s top songs of 1971.

[@negf22]

They wrote this after the group got back together. Robin left the group for about 18 months---Barry said it was a combination of things ( immaturity , 1st fame, prosperity, women, jeleousy, testosterone). It was a family squabble that played out in the media. They all missed singing together, it wasn't any fun on their own. Barry had this song mostly written and asked Robin if he wanted to help with it and that was that. He also gave Robin the 1st verse in the song to sing. Everybody and his brother have covered this song too. Great reaction. 😎

You put the work in. Nobody reacts as much as you. You wouldn't belive how much this song was on the radio.

[@mariaportengen2959]

So romantic, a beautiful song 💕

[@robertheckman8013]

And more than half their works are NOT disco.

[@breckrichardson390]

I love their disco songs -- that's what I grew up with -- but my favorite BeeGees tunes tend not to be the disco songs.

[@usmadgirl3074]

I know you sometimes can't use the live versions without being blocked (how goofy 🤪) but their live videos are so much better!!! The Bee Gees is one of my favorite groups ever & there is no comparison to their incredible live versions, especially this one!!! Barry stretches out that little "aaaaand" vibrato thing that melts hearts!

[@amyk9175]

If you don’t find time to enjoy “Run to Me” you’re missing out.

[@sarahadelle1953]

GREAT suggestion!!!

[@scottdebruyn7038]

The Answer to that question.. 'Time... Or a New Love AND Time'... :)

[@khart1070]

Have u done " Fanny Be Tender With My Love"...Quincy Jones, no less, described it as the best....watch the 'live' studio performance...the change-ups remind the listener of EVERYBODY'S vocal ranges & contributions. It also gives more attention to Remarkable Robin.

[@MissAstorDancer]

This was by far my favorite of all your reactions, so far. I was really into your analysis of the Bee Gees, and your appreciation for beautiful melodies, harmonies and vocals! I hope you will dig a little further back into their pre-disco catalog! I strongly suggest these 4 songs, for a start: To Love Somebody (1967) I've Gotta Get a Message to You (1968) New York Mining Disaster 1941 (1967) Lonely Days (1970) Keep up the great work!

[@DawnSuttonfabfour]

"Morning of my Life"? "Words" "Run to Me"? My step dad had a wonderful singing voice and singing "Words" and "Suite: Judy Blue Eyes" (CSN) to her in a pub convinced her to marry him! 48 years later and still going strong. "JBE" is really their song though.

[@rodhanson7112]

A great Aussie band

[@paulhansberry8168]

When I was a younger man, and I discovered ROCK, I (that word I agin) dismiss this music as sappy lovey crud, 50 yrs later....um...erm well things change, don't they....;>) Lots of hits: First Of May, Holiday, Massachusetts etc. Was full of myself back then. Oh well carry on!

[@robertheckman8013]

Actually its "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart?"

[@stpnwlf9]

One of the Bee Gees best tunes. As mentioned, it's been covered a lot and in my personal opinion, the Al Green cover come closest to equaling the original.

[@ronbrown912]

Great song, Chod. Great songs live forever through the originals and great covers with updated arrangements. The first time I ever heard Michael Buble on the radio, with Barry providing backup, he was covering this song and got my attention. His career exploded after that.

[@masterofsparkshwy6974]

Al Green did a good cover of it

[@maryrobbins4087]

You have to do AL Greenes live coverage of this song it is unbelievable!!!!!!

[@Scary__fun]

People who don't like romantic music aren't in touch with their own feelings. To them, music is a distraction to dance to. But great music as an art form also touches a person's soul with other emotions...sadness, anger, inspiration among others.

[@timetravellingone]

ABBA has new music "I still have faith in you" and "Don't shut me down" from "Voyage"

Great job again, Chod, you really understand and appreciate fine music and that is one of the qualities that sets you apart from so many other music reactors! Now don't you think it's time for another Blind Side reaction? How about some Blood Sweat and Tears - take your pick from: Lucretia MacEvil, And When I Die, Go Down Gambling, Hi-De-Ho, You Make Me So Very Happy, Spinning Wheel! They're all great so you decide!!

[@bangmon1000]

You might be interested in the Foo Fighters alto-ego the Dee Gees where they cover: You Should Be Dancing More Than a Woman Night Fever Tragedy They also cover Shadow Dancing and the Foo Fighters drummer sings lead on that. Shadow dancing is an Andy Gibb song. I beleive Barry Gibb wrote it and sings in the background in the studio version. I recommend the Midnight Special of Andy Gibb, so you can see him on his own. The youngest of the Gibb brothers and the first to die. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qqjJg42JgJt5nLs

Brilliant. The best cover of this (and the one we all listened to) was Al Green's version, just gorgeous,

[@sometimeslyrical]

Love the harmonies. Just wish that Robin would have been allowed to do the lead here on ALL the verses, instead of just the first.

[@billhawkins1236]

There's an entire different universe of Bee Gees music prior to the "Disco" era. Try "Words" New York mining disaster 1941" and "Massachusetts" just for starters. They also wrote music for alot of other people. Being as I don't really care for Disco, I hate that they got pigeonholed in that vein.
