You don't understand. They didn't just sing disco, they invented it! They will always be the king of Disco! When the power brokers in music wanted something different after 10 years. They were out on n the cold. No one would play their music. They reinvented their music to current tends at least 3 times

Do "Too Much Heaven" - not only is it a beautiful song but they gave it to UNICEF so it makes money for charity every time it's played.

The singers are all brothers. The Gibbs, and they had really similar voices. The whole album was made as a soundtrack to Saturday Night Fever, which set John Travolta's career up. And the album was one of the biggest all time records. The HBO documentary on The Bee Gees changed my view on them.

4:00 Brad: Where on Earth do you find 3 dudes that can sing this high pitch? 🤣 🌟Answer: Barry was 9 years old & his brothers, twins, Maurice & Robin were 6 when they began singing in unison. It wasn't until 1975 while recording “Nights on Broadway,” producer Arif Mardin asked that someone harmonize while screaming in the background. That was the first time Barry sang falsetto. “I was thinking, my god, where is this coming from? I can do this. My whole life I never knew I could do this,” Barry joked. 🤣 BUT!! There is FOUR Gibb brothers that can sing like that. Little brother Andy (12 years younger than Barry) had a solo career & sang with the signature Gibb falsetto.

Ya man! Barry's falsetto is a gift that made the Bee Gee's the biggest group in the 70's! Btw, his speaking voice in interviews is as normal as any guy you'd ever meet! He's just super gifted!

A voice like that only comes around once in a lifetime

'I don't know how he does it'- Brad in a high pitched voice. 😁😂🤣

The three singers are all brothers. The were a music group formed in 1958, featuring brothers Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb. The trio were especially successful as a popular music act in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and later as prominent performers of the disco music era in the mid- to late 1970s. The group sang recognisable three-part tight harmonies; Robin's clear vibrato lead vocals were a hallmark of their earlier hits, while Barry's R&B falsetto became their signature sound during the mid- to late 1970s and 1980s. The Bee Gees wrote all of their own hits, as well as writing and producing several major hits for other artists.

This Song DEFINES Disco. You have to be able to handle the moves to keep up.

In this clip: the tallest guy in the middle with the big hair and beard, the lead singer: Barry Gibb born September 1, 1946, the only surviving Gibb brother. Guy with long hair and red t-shirt: Robin Gibb, born December 22, 1949-passed away May 20, 2012, balding guy with beard Robin's fraternal twin brother Maurice (pronounced "Morris") Gibb, born December 22, 1949-passed away January 12, 2003. They also had another, younger, brother Andy Gibb, born March 5, 1958-passed away March 10, 1988. The three oldest brothers were born on the Isle of Man (UK). Oldest brother Barry got seriously burned when he accidentally pulled boiling tea over himself at 18 months old. He was in coma for a while, nearly died and was in hospital for many months. Because of this, he did not learn to talk until after the twins were born. Later the family moved to Manchester and from there they emigrated to Australia in 1958, right after Andy was born. Their musical career, which they had started as little kids, didn't lead to international success so they moved back to the UK in 1966. Then they had a string of big hits, until they temporarily broke up around 1970 for 15 months. Started back up, looking for a new sound which they first found in 1974 with the transitional album "Mr. Natural". After that "Main Course" was the first album that moved them into a new direction: more rhythm&blues, dance music like with great hits like Nights on Broadway and Jive Talkin'. From 1976 on they went all out with falsetto driven dance music which lead to their biggest commercial success as they provided classic songs for the Saturday Night Fever Soundtrack (1977 Stayin' Alive, How Deep is Your Love, Night Fever amongst them). You should react to the 1979 live version of Stayin' Alive, too kzread.info/dash/bejne/aaKdurWhZ9m9gqw.html

The genius of not only The Bee Gees, but also all of the executives who backed them, is: very few people would have had the vision to see that a female-sounding falsetto was going to work for guys trying to come off as cool in the 70's, an era of muscle cars and Dirty Harry. It was a courageous thing when you look at the music they were competing with.

@@soakedbearrd right… I’m stunned they haven’t heard it in the full meaning, I was born in 1989 and knew this song backwards and forewords by the mid 90’s. It’s literally (see my comment) one of the most iconic pieces of pop music of all time. For a grown adult in 2021 to not even recognize this song is strange, no matter the circumstances.

@@Polyphemus89 1989 is considered mature now. They were born in late 90s. But I get what you are saying, all I can say is that times have changed and music has change, the only throw backs you hear now are through commercials and movies (usually redone different covers). Radio is dead. And the oldies now seem to be from 90’s and on. For the 80s it was the 60s, for the 90s it was the 70s, 2000’s it was the 80s, 2010s it was the 90s, and 2020s I’m sure will be the 2000s. Each generation seems to have throwbacks about two decades beforehand.

@@soakedbearrd why do you say they were born in the late '90s? I thought they posted a picture of themselves from around 2007 where they looked like teenagers. I've been trying to figure out how old they really are. I don't think they're that young.

The Bee Gees were huge in the late 60s and early 70s, faded and then POW, came back even bigger with disco in the late 70s. Just amazing.

This was my favorite reaction by you two so far. Brad finally lightened up a little, and what was the result... Brad made a Lexism and Lex cheered with recognition! Keep up the great work Lex. Eventually his stick will fall out.

The Movie was Saturday Night Fever with John Travolta! Thats where he got his dance creed! They all sang falseto!

This song was featured in the movie “Airplane!” Funny af if you haven’t seen it

Did you know they thought John Travolta had COVID? After testing they discovered it was "Saturday Night Fever."

And also in Ready Player One. I busted out laughing in the theater, "YEAH!!!!" 😆

They in essence created disco - and it became their curse. Vilified and made fun of, and never given credit until decades later. Brilliant song writers - and had 4 number 1 hits off this soundtrack which was paired to an iconic film SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER./

This song played at my high school dances in the later 70’s. They had to perform in football stadiums because their music was so popular

All brothers and two are twins. What a great combination for harmonizing!

The pure rejecting-the-fact-face of Lex in the first minute is really worth watching this reaction :) Yeeeeaaaaaah - it was THESE guys who did this song. In summer 1978 the Bee Gees held the FIRST THREE places (1-3) at the same time in the american billboard and two further songs in the Top Ten. This time period is called "Bee Gee mania". Just read about it in wikipedia. And yes - their voice harmonies and the falsetto voices are crazy good.

"This is like...SO DISCO!" Umm, yeah Lex, you have no idea! 😎 You need to listen to the entire Saturday Night Fever soundtrack or watch the movie.

The high singing is called falsetto. When you hear them sing How Deep is Your Love, Barry & the brothers sing their verses & the backgrounds in regular range voice. When they want to go high, they use their falsetto which is often called ‘head voice’.

Disco made the BeeGees and they never looked back. "Spirits Having Flown" while not a dance tune is a favourite for the feels.

Just one of many excellent songs from the Soundtrack to a wonderful movie Starring John Travolta called "Saturday Night Fever". If you haven't seen it, please do yourselves a favor and watch it - the disco club, the dancing and the backstory in the plot are all amazing memories from my childhood!

They wrote and did the backing for the song Chain Reaction for Diana Ross if you want to check that one out.

All the BeeGee music is one of a kind. I always liked hearing them

This groove in your soul is a prerequisite for any CPR class. ✋🏻❤️🤚🏻

Really was a fun stream with your mom Lex. I am so happy for you Brad & Lex. My favorite Bee Gees song is "To Love Somebody"

"Too Much Heaven" is another great one for you to check out 👍

This is probably the biggest song in Disco, it's been used in a ton of movies. When we were teens my friend thought it was hilarious to ride around town blasting this song for all to hear.
