There is no words to explain how beautiful this song is

[@sabinewei3041]

😀😀😍😍💘❤❤❤❤

[@scarygazeplaysmsp1825]

No one can beat The Bee Gees! Their music touches your heart and soul!

[@stephenhanft1226]

I think you saved the best for last with the Bee Gees original version. Barry's singing here is so clear and so precise.

[@realcoolbreeze]

The Bee Gee s became very popular initially once everyone heard them. There was no mistaking their unique sound and enduring talent.

[@gaylaliles4095]

This is the best version of them all because It's the song written by Barry and sung by Barry. Can't improve the original.

[@sk1dzzz608]

Yea,don't fix something that ain't broken

[@magneto7930]

Actually it was written by Barry, Maurice, and Robin, but I totally agree with you. The original is the absolute best!

[@marksupic3083]

The BG’s for “The Brothers Gibbs.”

[@BGWhisperer]

@magneto7930 Actually, it was largely written by Barry, like most of their songs. Robin and Maurice might’ve added something here or there. Barry even talked about how the song came to him.

[@markmoscatello9461]

Barry Gibb is great. Such a humble man. Such a great talent

[@ChuckHackney]

He looks so much like Andy did those many years later. The resemblance is striking. Long live The Bee Gees, and thank God, Barry is still with us.

[@laurieshreffler5028]

I love Barry's 1979 concert performance video the best. IMO, it was his most passionate version. I was sitting in the 3rd row right in front of him. It was like an out of body experience!

[@davidthieman8020]

Words were so soulful and shot right to the matter of heart.

[@ConnieKWONG-lw4zl]

Barry looked so gorgeous and sung this awesome beautiful contemporary song so tenderly and smoothly ❤❤

[@tim4962]

1970's my decade! I really loved the music back then.

[@6828oaklawn]

This is from 1968.

[@tobywallace578]

Love The Bee Gees and Dani rocks

[@cathyopthof8136]

This is the most beautiful song ever written, by the most gorgeous man!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@dalem8332]

Barry Gibb is such a great songwriter. Top Ten Hit here in Canada. Love it! ♥️🎼🎶🎵🇨🇦

[@scottcanann]

Sweet to see you give such a big genuine smile (2:43). This will always be my favorite version - even though the other ones are awesome. It really is such a beautiful song

[@kerrypapworth1526]

Gosh the Bee Gees were amazing 💕💕💕💕

[@christophersmith2793]

Absolutely love this song too nothing beats the original Bee Gees song the were absolutely incredible songwriting geniuses, great reaction thanks 🙏

[@ChuckHackney]

This is the most beautiful Bee Gees song, along with Broken Heart as in How Can You Mend a.....

[@Sandra6411]

@DaniAtkinson … my absolute favorite version is 1979 spirits tour from The Bee Gees. Barry poured his heart out during that rendition.

[@bobv586]

Dani in one of your other bee gees reactions said you were born at the wrong time .. no you are a lovely young woman that has an old soul. no matter when you are born you can always discover great music you just have to look for it , you are one of my favorite reactors to listen to because you get the songs on an emotional level wiser than your years ...love you girl keep listening

[@mikesmith-ef5lg]

One of the best

[@dlee4319]

Beautiful song in all its versions. Barry has been singing this song live from 1967-2021. His live versions thru the years have only added more layers of maturity and elicit deep emotional feelings, thanks Dani!

[@vandoraginther6421]

I think Barry was about 22 in this recording. So handsome. I love the Bee Gees. I was born in this generation I will always love the music. The Dolly and Barry version they are both in their 70s but beautiful as you said. I have seen some others in concert that were terrific too. Your reaction is great I can see it moves you. Thanks for your reaction.

[@dp3396]

WORDS became Barry’s big spotlight solo for concerts, and I STARTED A JOKE was Robin’s. I think it’s fascinating to see these songs from decade to decade, and how they aged, styles changed, and the subtle changes that kept the song current. Please consider reacting the the 1979 and 1989 live performances. In the 1979 version of Words, there’s a cameo of Barry’s wife Linda holding their oldest child Steven. The 1989 version is my favorite, and shows Barry’s interaction with the audience. You won’t regret reacting. Robin’s performance of Joke in 1989 is noted for the minutes long standing ovation.

[@giannafrancis5176]

I really agree with the observations and insights you’ve communicated about Barry and Robin and they are thought provoking for me. Thank you - I appreciate them. I admit I’m curious about your thoughts about Maurice. What do you think his signature or spotlight solo or songwriting achievement or concert performance would be? For some reason I just love the video of Railroad but it also seems like an outlier (he was out in the middle of nowhere singing by himself). He seemed very socially skilled and it seemed like he really connected with crowds and his brothers and the band. I love his voice and love many of the songs in which he sang lead but I don’t find myself humming them or them being brain worms. Maybe I’m unique in that way. I guess what I’m wondering is what do you (or anyone, actually) think he and/or Bee Gee fans/followers (for lack of better words) would consider as “his moment”/signature (or two or three). He’s an interesting man, as they all are/were. I’m loving all four brothers❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@dp3396]

Maurice usually solo’d one song per concert, but it was usually one from the most recent album, so not one in particular. What was consistent, and what fans that followed them around the world probably anticipated from Maurice, was his comedy routines during the medley. They changed management in Australia when Mo was about 15, and had pretty much unlimited use of the studio for the first time. Nat Kipner said they (especially Mo) quickly mastered all of the instruments, and Mo liked to write songs, but not so much the words. Their manager, Robert Stigwood, commented after signing them when Mo was only 17, that he could instantly arrange what Barry and Robin wrote.This allowed them to write and record in the studio, unlike most who don’t go into a costly studio session until they have fully written songs rehearsed and ready to record. Mo was more instrumentally gifted, and is usually credited with multiple instruments on their earliest studio albums, and Barry said he was an expert harmonist who always knew where to place that third part. If Maurice is singing lead on any of their songs, then he was usually the only writer and may do all instruments on the studio version. These are the songs I would suggest, if you want to better know Maurice and his contributions to the Bee Gees : BEE GEES 1960 (at ages 13 and 10, and about 1 1/2 years after they started working professionally), BLOWING IN THE WIND (that 3rd part harmony - he’s placing the high part), WINE AND WOMEN (Robin and Mo both have their first solo parts on this song), SPICKS AND SPECKS (piano), JIVE TALKIN (bass!!!), SEVEN SEAS SYMPHONY (composition and piano - completed in one take with a live symphony orchestra), LAY IT ON ME (studio or live), MAN IN THE MIDDLE at LIVE BY REQUEST (for a GREAT live performance of a personal autobiographical song from their last album before he passed with him playing the guitar John Lennon gave him for his 21st birthday), THIS IS WHERE I CAME IN - official video (autobiographical of their journey together and he shows off one of the magic tricks he was known to love to do, and his gorgeous smile), and my personal favorite of his - WALKING ON AIR - the studio version - also from their last album in 2001 - with Maurice alone credited with writing, producing, vocals, keyboards, guitars, and co-credited on Drum Programming). They, including younger brother Andy, are said to all have perfect pitch, allowing for natural harmony, playing any instrument by ear, song writing, and exceptional live performances. Their first manager commented that 12 year old Barry could write a song in 5 minutes, and their second manager commented on his ability to custom write for anyone, and in any genre, but Barry is said to prefer to write in a team, and Robin and Maurice were definitely his dream team. I find it fascinating that Robin was the opposite of his twin, and even though he could play instruments by ear, preferred writing the words, and his dominate instrument was his voice, while Maurice preferred writing music and playing instruments. The three of them together were an unstoppable force. If Maurice had lived, I believe MAN IN THE MIDDLE would have become his signature solo spotlight.

[@dp3396]

Actually, the studio version of KAY IT ON ME would best showcase Maurice’s style, and I would recommend the 1989 MEDLEY to see a bit of comedy and also Maurice’s contribution to the harmonies, especially on Islands in the Stream.

[@giannafrancis5176]

D P Thank you very much for your thoughtful, knowledgeable, and generous responses. You’ve simultaneously satisfied my curiosity and motivated me to follow up and learn and understand more. I do remember hearing “Lay it on me” and “Man in the Middle” and know I enjoyed them both and look forward to hearing and seeing the performances you recommended, in addition to your other recommendations. Thank you again so very much! I hope you enjoy the rest of this weekend!

[@shanenolan8252]

Thanks dani love this song

[@user-ni8wi6wh9x]

barry gibb morning of my life

[@aletmartins6940]

Gorgeous song. Very apt lyrics.

[@giannafrancis5176]

I love this song too! Why was this particular song often accompanied by Maurice’s comedy? Was it spontaneous or a conscious, even preplanned decision? Any thoughts? Regardless, a beautiful song!

[@leonidesrazon922]

Love and support from the Philippines 🇵🇭

[@saulinvictus9274]

Me too👍

[@jackjohnson6619]

There are no words to explain how much I enjoy your reactions. Thank you Dani. 😍

[@glennallen239]

Dani Thank You for reacting to this part of my request. I love this original Version and the Barry and Dolly versions for different reasons. I love the original because all the Bee Gees are their and Robin on the Piano. I love the Barry and Dolly version because of the duet and because You see the more mature Barry. He still has his beautiful voice along with Dollys.

[@georgeschiabor196]

You're going to hear the best ever of all time

[@GJoeJ010841]

Elvis sang this in Concert also.

[@gregraymond428]

Hey Miss “D”.Great to cop another fun and interesting reaction from ya mate. Love it. Yeah the Ed Sullivan Show WOW! They sure don’t make variety shows like no more. Remember the Ed Sullivan look-a-like dude, in the Tarantino flick, Pulp Fiction? He was actually pretty freakin good I thought. But this version of the Bee Gees early years, clearly shows a young, groovy and hip Barry Gibb, with no trademark beard. Cool. But his unique vocal style never changed. I agree with your points of difference between the two versions mate. Thanks for this. Stay safe mate.👍🇦🇺☮️😁🤪😄❤️

[@waxieman]

You should do Andy Gibbs Words video. Looks and sounds exactly like Barry.

[@dp3396]

....in a tux, and with a rare beard. A definite must for reaction!!

[@GetBackJoe1969]

I have seen this. It is Amazing!

[@sherryarflin726]

I forgot they sang this song. It’s a beautiful song .

[@timothymunger3186]

You might like the songs "My Lover's Prayer, "Alone" and "Still Waters" that they did in1996 from the Still Waters CD. It's a good album and shows The Bee Gees still on top of their game long after the disco era. My Lover's Prayer will definitely pull you in.

[@commonwombat9171]

This was from their days as a 5 piece (until 1969). The Gibbs were born in the UK but migrated to AUS in 1958 where their career seriously started along with their 1st major recordings. They returned to the UK in 1967 where they were picked up by a major label and extended to 5 men with 2 AUS musicians (Vince Melouney - lead guitar & Colin Peterson - drums) who you see in this clip.

[@davegreen887]

Great reaction beautiful lady

[@charlesturner3688]

You got my vote for their very best.

[@kathystammen8774]

My goodness sakes this song. They don’t make songs like this anymore they don’t sing songs like this anymore they don’t have beautiful violinists playing anymore. This song is absolutely gorgeous in this group in my opinion is the very best in the universe. How many bands can you name that have been together for 50 years and have written nearly 1000 songs?

[@wendysilva8749]

Love to see your reaction to Man in the Middle, Maurice takes the lead. This song is from the album This is Where I Came In... you should also do This is Where I Came In, Wedding Song, Sacred Trust, Deja Vu. For fun you should check out the videos of them from the early 60's when they were children.

[@DavidMcCraymccrayjdm]

Most of the recording was on 45s records. A, side and B, side with the main song for DJs played is the A side only. However, if enough request come in the B side can be played. "Words" is the B side and what also made the Bee Gees a household name. This is the beginning of the Bee Gees.

[@franktaylor2401]

One of my favorite songs of all times. Thank you.

[@bpfromowc]

This is from the legendary “Ed Sullivan Show”. This is where Elvis began. Another great performance on the show came from The Doors / Light My Fire 🔥

[@guillermojimenezcastelblan8456]

Barry`s voice never lost its pitch, from day number 1 to the present time. Very nostalgic, this footage, vintage, with his brothers in the band. Young bass player Maurice, supporting this awesome tune.

[@suprchickn7745]

One of my wife's favorite songs! Love your reactions!

[@dwanewilson1509]

Your reviews of the "Bee Gee's" are refreshing! The fact you recognize and admire talent from an era when harmony mattered defines you.

[@charlesbunch8383]

Thanks once again Dani for a thoughtful review. My #1 will have to be Elvis because of the voice.

[@sylviategroen1583]

My favorite song, written n preformed by Barry n brothers... 🥳👑🌟🥰💐💯💯👏💦😁💥☺️

[@bradheilman1856]

Have you done "Unchained Medley" by the Righteous Brothers yet?

[@beegeesbuster1]

Remember to try to react to Boyzones version. Maybe also the one where Boyzone joins the Bee Gees on stage and sings the song.

[@TheIrishrogue68]

Great reaction, one of your best. I like that you don’t interrupt the song every 15 seconds...you comments are seamlessly entwined with the recording.

[@ConnieKWONG-lw4zl]

This song is written by the Bee Gees ❤❤❤

[@alsmith4807]

Good Reaction video Dani have 2 reaction requests these 2 songs by this group at the time was the most requested & celebrated songs on the billboard they were performed live by the Righteous Brothers - YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE + ROCK & ROLL HEAVEN which was a tribute to past STARs & saturated the airways love to hear your Reaction to them!

[@giannafrancis5176]

Love Rock and Roll Heaven!

[@n49martin]

Another favourite song of mine is The First Of May.

[@negf22]

This is their song, everybody and his brother has covered this.

[@buddyofficer9779]

May 2014 at a concert in Chicago Barry talked about his wife Linda and sang Words to her. They have been married over 50 years.

[@DaniAtkinson]

That sounds like such a sweet moment!

[@w.b.t.127]

Bee Gees with Barry is my preference.

[@tomsawyer2768]

Beautiful song written by Barry and brother Andy and Andy had a big hit with it, pushing the BeeGees out of number one spot on the Charts! Thank you :-))

[@marthayoung2308]

THANK YOU! I've asked alot of reactors to react to this, and YOU are the only one that has. Beautiful song!

[@trish8406]

Love this song ♥️

[@kathieovercash8414]

Please react to Andy Gibb singing Words live. Mind blowing. He's started growing a beard and you know it's not Barry but you have to look again to make sure because they sound just alike.

[@shanenolan8252]

I don't think I actually saw this performance before I saw several others from that period but not ed Sullivan

[@magneto7930]

Written by Barry, Robin, and Maurice, the original version remains the best!

[@MaryHarlingten]

Words Is One Of Bee Gees Terrific Dong

[@cathyopthof8136]

Best, ever!!!💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋

[@GetBackJoe1969]

You have to hear TO LOVE SOMEBODY

[@russ4862]

Thank you, Dani, this was wonderful. Glen Campbell also has a fabulous version of this song if you're interested. Either way, here's to your next reaction! 🙏🙂❤️

[@giannafrancis5176]

Yes, I agree on both points! Thank you for this suggestion, Russell. This song seemed to really resonate with Glen also and I loved his performance so much!

[@marksupic3083]

Such fine vibrato

[@kylanhanson2111]

You have to check out Elvis’ live version on KZbin from the Aug 12 midnight show. It is the most meaningful to me. The rehearsal with the humor takes the edge off it along with the feeling behind the song.

[@ronneranthonylutasemais8923]

Very Good!! PLEASE REACT FOR WHOM THE BELL TOLLS LIVE BEE GEES...

[@lindataylor5636]

lol they must have come to the US with one set of clothes, they look the same as they did on the Smothers Brothers which they sang the same song in the same clothes which they performed before Ed Sullivan

[@sidpalmour111]

Please consider FIRST TIME HEARING Joey and Rory "When I'm Gone" Very powerful. Sadly, this came true years later for these two. Careful watching as a couple. (tissue alert, trust me) Thank you in advance.

[@joeyjojo5986]

This is their best song and Barry is hitting "elvis levels" of magnetism on stage at this point. wow.

[@azmatfaheem8757]

These singers are medicine for pain

[@Wellch]

My favorite BeeGees song of all time.

[@gbsailing9436]

If you liked that song by the Bee Gees, Dani, then you should check out “I’ll Kiss Your Memory”, written by Barry and sung by the them all.

[@francisxray9900]

First to say, I'm a big Bee Gees fan. Really like Elvis, but his version of 'Words' doesn't match the meaning of that heartfelt song. To me, he somehow destroys it, pushing it thru' so fast. On their 'Spirits-Tour' in 1979, also to find on YT, you can see Barry, doin' a phantastic and stunning performance of 'Words'. BTW, in the sixties, they had bigger hits than 'Words' or 'To Love Somebody', but this couple of songs are the most covered ones, out of that timeline. Not strange to me, so it's clear to recognize why. These are monster-songs, makin' other great songwriters green with envy, like Bono or even Stephen Stills said.

[@georgeschiabor196]

There is another version on Ed Sullivan where the piano is used exclusive and it's better

[@terrybodley7733]

This is the original version, the rest were all covers.

[@mylcioquites3133]

maravilha de musica Bee Gees sempre fizeram muito sucesso aqui no Brasil

[@sallyhallada]

Just adding to the comments that Barry dedicates Words to his wife, Linda, in concert - married 50 years so he really meant those everlasting words!!

[@user-ni8wi6wh9x]

👏👏🤜

[@BGWhisperer]

This is the original version. This is the Bee Gees’ song. And that’s Barry Gibb.

[@barbarapennell9717]

Word......

[@joepowell7025]

The original was the best This is the best

[@troypolk1156]

Love you angel 😇

[@terriwalls5571]

Words by Andy Gibb is phenomenal!!!

[@tripp2]

I agree with below comments this is the best version.

[@BGWhisperer]

It’s not a version, it’s the original.

[@woofeliwow]

Thank You for some great content and in depth commentary. Is it possible that You wait to comment on the numbers until after it is done? Just so we get the full experience of listening to the number without all the breaks :)

[@ardinsalim9048]

Try reacting to I started a joke by bee gees, Robin is the vocalist. for me personally is the best song by the brothers

[@kennethidomir]

Well done. Elvis sung this too.

[@danielbenincasa770]

They are the original & wrote it

[@BGWhisperer]

She makes it seem like she doesn’t realize that.

[@dianasmith2876]

No better version than the original of this song!

[@carlgarnett8817]

Yes hello it's me again hey there thought I'd drop you a few lines yes Bee Gees they're good together and look good on their own but the song words you got to remember get us back in the 70s a different time even houses back then we're like seventy thousand hundred thousand today's they're worth $1000000 or more but the only way I can explain to you plus I was a younger dude maybe somebody in your age yes I had to say the different time zone and they were good from Canada Toronto Scarborough Ontario TCB from Carl Supertramp Garnett hide in your shell God bless be safe

[@GetBackJoe1969]

RUN TO ME

[@bradgrauer9148]

Barry Gibb actually wrote this song obviously the original

[@GinMae]

Thanks, Dani - this is beautiful - but I also love Robin - and he is a great contributor to this song - here is a live solo of his -- kzbin.info/www/bejne/o2KXf4Nqn9ucmMk

[@giannafrancis5176]

This was lovely! Thank you for sharing this link; I had never seen it. Robin was born to sing, right? It seems he could not have been given a better name. What a gift - great songs and singers have the power to give us such wonderful shared and yet simultaneously unique/novel listening experiences!

[@GinMae]

@@giannafrancis5176 Thanks, Gianna - they were all fantastic!

[@MaryHarlingten]

Bee gees Version is The most Terrific Song

[@davidleatherneck]

Take note of who is playing the Piano.

[@kylanhanson2111]

Also Words is a very difficult song to get your head around and contradictory. Words without action is meaningless. Any one can talk a good game but without any real conviction and action it’s pointless. Also no one mentions the line about you don’t believe a single word I say. That illustrates trust issues. So to me at first glance yes it’s a beautiful love song but if you dig deep it’s not really what you think it is. It’s a bit of a mystery/illusion that leaves you with more questions than answers.

[@gbsailing9436]

The Bee Gees wrote the BEST songs….Those are my words

[@gbsailing9436]

Oh and this is the best version: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jpjVhYOEpZJ7msk
