BeeGees are number one. Best songwriters, singers and all out good human beings. They were the first group ever to donate all proceeds of a song to charity with Too much heaven given to UNICEF making them millions to this day as well as the proceeds of Blue Island to help with the aftermath of the Bosnian war particularly the women and children affected by the war. All out great people.

All of Barry's voices are perfect. The twins too. They can hit high notes, regular and low. Robin's voice has a beautiful haunting sadness to it.

1978...they were already moving to contemporary rock. Last album of the 70s was Spirits Having Flown. Inc. Too much Heaven and Tragedy which they wrote in the same afternoon and Shadow Dancing that evening. 3 number 1s in one day! Barry created that explosion purely by mouth over microphone 🎤 and overloading.

Bee Gees are number one for family group that I can think of that are that talented. Incredible harmonies and such a long career of hits.

Bee Gees are the best! For me they always be a no.1 You should react to Closer Than Close. That's a great ballad and Maurice is a lead singer 😊❤

Bee Gees rank #1 in my book. Hands down. I loved the Jackson’s and the Osmond’s growing up but I don’t feel an addition to their music like I do Bee Gees. I listen to Bee Gees every day! They are the best at songwriting, vocals, harmonies, and not to mention, they are awesome human beings. They were good, decent, generous men. They used their fame to give back to charity. I just love them so much. ❤️

The Brothers Gibb were the absolute best, bar none. Top of the list. Voices, songwriters, longevity, and attractiveness. The whole damn package. ❤️. Have you done Love You Inside Out? 1979 song.

Please react to the Making of Tragedy Video. It shows how the Bee Gees made the Song! Barry made the Explosion sound with his voice and the Microphone!

My Bee Gees forever! No one could match their vocals or song writing for themselves and other huge stars as Celine Dion and Barbara Steistand

They wrote Tragedy,and Too much Heaven,in the same afternoon.

Wow, thank you LIZZIE!

Barry made the explosion sound himself by cupping his hands over his mouth. He did it three times and it was overloaded into one sound. There’s a Making of Tragedy video that’s really interesting.

As the music changed each decade their music changed!

. The Bee Gees got their newer sound right in line when they moved to Miami and made the album MAIN COURSE released in 1975 ....That was the record that took them to another level into super stardom and then Saturday Night Fever soundtrack to another level ..Main Course is a super album that every one should hear..

@@GeorgeMaster-xg7lg I totally understand how they got that rhythm . Those coastal bridges have strange sounds from the things that the builders put in the asphalt of the bridge to get the drivers attention as they drive along.. Barry thought it was a not so great bridge but the designers do that intentionally for safety awareness .. The newest bridge in Charleston ,SC , you can hear all sorts of weird noises on that one..

A great song is “Love You Inside Out” from the album Spirits Having Flown. It is awesome!

The explosion sound was actually Barry making that sound. You should watch the making of this song.

They organized a fundraiser that was held at the UN and donated TOO MUCH HEAVEN in perpetuity to UNICEF. The album became their top seller and had a 3rd #1 called LOVE YOU INSIDE OUT that is one of their most sampled. You should also react to the title song SPIRITS HAVING FLOWN, and the B side of the TOO MUCH HEAVEN single called REST YOUR LOVE. When you react to The Mills Brothers, maybe slip “Bee Gees inspiration” or something into the title to make it easier for Bee Gees fans to find.

The Bee Gees have recorded 303 songs themselves as a group,are credited with written over 1000 songs,for others and themselves,it would be hard pressed not to consider them as the top family group,The Jackson were a great 60's and 70's group,when Micheal left,he was a solo hit machine,just my opinion.

The Mills Brothers were a big inspiration for the Gibbs. You should definitely learn about them!!

Number one they are no one finer than them

bee gees love you inside out

The Gibb Brothers wrote Too much Heaven and Tragedy in the same afternoon, 2 fantastic tunes in one day..

They got their start right here in Australia as kids in 1958 and started booking gigs and getting a following in the 1960s. They were huge in the 70's as you know in the disco era. "Tragedy" was released in 1979 so you were right about an 80s vibe. It's so sad to think of Andy, Robin and Maurice being gone. "Nights on Broadway" was their first song singing falsetto. Barry continues to make music but unfortunately there are no concert dates booked for 2023. Maybe at 75 he's decided to take a well earned break. What a phenominal sound they had. I will remain an eternal fan of the BeeGees 🥰🎸🎶🎤❤

Bee Gees are the best! For me they always be a no.1 You should react to Closer Than Close. That's a great ballad and Maurice is a lead singer 😊❤

I don't know why it always makes me so giddy with joy to see reactors making stank faces. I love seeing you guys really, REALLY enjoying old music that is new to you.

If you like Tragedy you should check out Spirits Having Flown. And if you like Barry, check out the live version of What Kind of Fool . It's a duet with Barbra Striesand.

Their baby brother, Andy Gibb, would’ve turned 65 on March 5th. Will you do Don’t Throw it All Away by him to celebrate his birthday?!?! The Gibb Brothers are my ALL TIME FAVORITE artists!!!! All 4 of the brothers!! You need to check out their kids as well (The Gibb Collective)

70's, Disco and the Bee Gees an epic, incredible time.

I grow up with the best Group ever. I love the Bee Gees. They had so many Songs. And every Song is a surprice. 🕺🥰👍

ESP by the Bee Gees.

Love your reactions to the Bee Gees. This is one of many of my favorite Bee Gees songs. If you were to watch a video of them performing this song live in concert, you would feel the impact a little bit more. The explosion you hear and referenced to was to emphasize the tragedy being sung about. In concert they usually would use some small explosives / fireworks and the explosion came across even louder.

MMB, I enjoyed your dance moves by the way. I get it that a lot of people actually LOVE Disco.

I love when you completely get into the groove of a song! You make me happy. Thank you. 🙂❤

Actually this song is from their 1979 album “Spirits Having Flown” which had several hits come from it.

You are wonderful. I love your reactions. Thank you so much for giving y I your all. The BeeGees are my favorites. I love every song there's.

They had the music done for this song and just the word tragedy and then wrote the rest of the song and put it all together. The video of them working on this song is great and explains so much.

You really need to react to "Nights On Broadway" from their 70's run. I would recommend listening to their song "If I Can't Have You" from Saturday Night Fever soundtrack, sung by Yvonne Elliman, great song! Another Bee Gees song you need to react to is "One" It's from the late 80's and it's some of their best work.

"Nights on Broadway"....yes!!!

BeeGees are number one in any category! There is a making of the song video for this song. Please watch.

Osmond Bros. (Donny is the young lead like Michael was to the Jackson's). " One Bad Apple". Start with this song.

The Osmonds- One Bad Apple, Sister Sledge - We Are Family , Debarge - All This Love,

Listen to their One Night Only concert. Phenomenal.

ALL of the money they made on Too Much Heaven They donated to UNICEF!

You should check out- The Making Of Tragedy. There’s many interviews with them- Bee Gees 1989, Larry King interview.

I got to watch the making of Tragedy it was very interesting. Great song!! The Bee Gees rate as the best group ever. Yeah brother had a part in the group that made them what they were. I love the Bee Gees. Thanks!

BeeGees Love You Inside out, You Win Again

You should listen to "Love You Inside Out" by the Bee Gees, the Bee Gees have a lot of music that is fast paced, even past the 70s. Also For whom the Bell Tolls was made for their 1993 album.

Have you heard the song 'One'? Love it, with MANY other sensational songs!! I was a teenager in the 70's. It came out in 1979. (I was 19!!) . Love 'How deep is your love' too. They were never ending!!! xx

Is "One" the same song Three Dog Night" sang in the 70's?

The Cowsills are a family band. They were the prototype for the Partridge family tv series. Monstrously talented family with a very tragic background at the hands of their father. Despite that, the kids sang their hearts out.

Written by The Bee Gees. Great song 👍 RIP Maurice, Robin + Andy Gibb. Trio with most Nr 1 songs in Billboard. Suggested Bee Gees video 📹 Alone. Some family 👪 groups (husband-wife, siblings, parents, kids). Kinks, AC/DC, Dire Straits, Oasis, Corrs (sister Caroline born on St. Patrick's Day ☘ 50 years ago 🎂), Baylou, Split Enz, Nickelback, 1 Good Girl, Lillix, Heart, GuessWho, Gap Band, Isley Brothers, Quarterflash, Nu Shooz, Van Halen, Bangles, Breeders, Sly and the Family Stone, Wilkinsons, Band Perry, Henningsens, Thompson Square ⬛ , Earth Wind and Fire.

IMO, BGs are at No 1 for any group, Family or not. They are just too good. As far as any other "family" group, I would have to put the Osmonds after them. And for No 3, even though they are cousins and not a "family" like the rest, I would go with Alabama, They have so many great hits including I think something like 41 #1's. BTW, we all miss them, but Barry is still out there doing what he does. Here's one from 2017, yeah, he's aged but he's still got it! kzread.info/dash/bejne/q2ad2KqghLmTgpc.html

The Bee Gees could have put out multiple records in 1979 as the wrote the whole Saturday Night Live album in under 2 weeks

"Living eyes" was their first 80's album, seems like they were experimenting with New Wave by then "Shine shine" from Barry's rare solo album "Now Voyager" 1984 is a good one.

You asked about Family Groups - The Staples Singers consisted of 3 sisters and their father. They actually traveled with Martin Luther King and their music came from Gospel roots and crossed into mainstream. Mavis Staples in particular had a fantastic voice. I enjoy hearing them in a wonderful video where they join with The Band in singing the song The Weight. Can be found on you tube searching for "the Band and The Staples" ...Well worth the watch!

I missed you reacting to The Bee Gees. It’s hard to beat The Bee Gees harmonies and to me in their harmonization there’s no one equal to them. Please react to their song WIND OF CHANGE kzread.info/dash/bejne/qpaO2rCwpbq_ips.html Live from their 1979 Spirits Tour. ❤

Do 'One Bad Apple' by The Osmonds.

That explosion sound was actually done by Barry. He cupped his hand around the mike and created the sound. Check out the making of Tragedy video and you will see how he came up with the idea. Really cool🙋🏽‍♀️✌🏾

I'm in my 70's and will never get tired of listening to the Bee Gees.So happy you discovered them!!

Listen to "LOVE YOU INSIDE OUT," their third #1 single from "Spirits Having Flown"... great song and funky!! Also check out "Fanny Be Tender" and "Love So Right"....amazing, amazing group. Also, the Bee Gees wrote several #1's for their younger brother, Andy Gibb, his first 3 songs went to #1, a record then. Of course, Barry sang most of the backup vocals!

the number of which I like the Bee Gees hasn't been invented yet

Barry did that explosion using his own voice.

Bee Gees are the absolute best band of all time!!! (To me). I only have 2 that are even numbered. 1 Bee Gees 2 Journey and then a bunch of others that I really can’t number. Too many are just so close. My top though definitely those two! I was too young for Beatles and I’ve just never caught on to them. Very small when they came along and they didn’t stay together long enough for me to get to know them.

If you really missed Barry try "The Only Love" and "One" ❤️ Oh yeah try " Reaching Out" 🤣 Do all these I suggest for a good variety!

That explosion is Barry cupping his hands over the microphone and making the noise. There is a making of Tradegy youtube.

They donated all proceeds for Too Much Heaven to Unicef. Very charitable, giving men. You should react to Wind of change (live 1979), Medley 1989 and 1974 both in Melbourne and Words (live 1976). ❤❤

They said create the melody 1st, then the music. The lyrics last, never change the melody for the lyrics. They wrote the lyrics in a couple of hours. The wrote and performed all there own music❤

Run to me, 1972, official video is a must. Such a beautiful composition

This is song is Barry the falsetto king. I love it. In my top 10 Bee Gees songs. Fantabulous. Its from the Spirits Having Flown album 1979...after Saturday Night Fever.

There’s a fun vid of Barry deciding he’s going to make that explosion sound with his mouth. And then he does. ❤

“Alone” and “Massachusetts” are two of my favorites! But they’re all greatsongs!! Love these guys. Just Barry now…

For some reason, harmonies are exponentially better when people from the same family sing together. Don't know why, but it's always held true in my experience. I am not a BeeGees fan. I gave up on pop a long long time ago, about the time the BeeGees were hot. I like complicated arrangements and instrumental excellence. Regardless, glad you like them. They are definitely worthy, if for nothing else but their harmonies. Amazing voices. Great pop tunes.

Don't forget to check out the song (Love You Inside Out) another smooth #1 R&B song from the 1979 "Spirits Having Flown"

Their 70’s run was actually from 4 albums… Main Course (Jive Talkin, Fanny be Tender; Nights on Broadway) Children of the World (You should Be Dancing, Love so right) Then the Fever cd which used some of the songs listed above again! Then the Spirits Having Flown cd (Too Much Heaven, Tragedy, and Love You Inside out….all 3 of these songs went #1) Then the backlash of disco came so they started writing for other artists and those artists had hits with those songs!

You should react to "Islands in the Stream" - Barry wrote it for Kenny Rogers but when they recorded it Barry wasn't happy with it. At one point he said "we need Dolly Parton." Phone calls were made & Dolly showed up. She said hearing it in the headphones as they recorded gave you chills - the way their voices worked together. It was a huge hit and Dolly & Kenny had a string of hits after that.

Barry Gibb did the EXPLOSION himself at a mic!

Another song I love is Love So Right! You should hear it!!

Love You Inside and Out was also a number 1 from Spirits Having Flown. Check that one out.

Barry did the explosion into the microphone.

"Tragedy" is a song released by the Bee Gees, written by Barry, Robin & Maurice Gibb, included on their 1979 album Spirits Having Flown. The single reached number one in the UK in February 1979 and repeated the feat the following month on the US Billboard Hot 100. In 1998, it was covered by British pop group Steps, whose version also reached number one in the UK.

DeBarge is a great family group. They’re from the 80’s.

Barry made “the explosion sound” by cupping the microphone in his hands and his breath/voice

The Osmonds did a good job on “He Ain’t Heavy, He’s My Brother”. 😊😊

They are without doubt No1 and always will be.

Love You Inside Out, Spirits Having Flown and Reaching Out were also great R&B/funky/Carribean flavor songs on this album. Hope you react to more BeeGees! Great reaction! ❤

Great to see you with the Bee Gees again! Have you tried Love So Right? It's seriously r&b and Barry just wails!! So much great stuff yet to go!

If you like the song react to tragedy- the make of. Here youz can see how they made the song and the "explosion"!

You Must watch the Osmonds! The Bee Gees are definitely the best...covering 5 decades!

Their Spirits tour in 1979 grossed over $10 million, and for that time period…that was amazing!
