“Hit you from all sides, lay your fortress open wide” means he’s going to break down the walls she’s built around her heart to protect her from a broken heart.

Yep, I love that part where Robin sings “Aahh girl”. 🔥

For me this is my fav Bee Gees song. I also love for whom the bell tolls and alone. Too much heaven is just beautiful too. You should really check out all the songs the Bee Gees wrote for other major artists such as Barbara Streisand, Diana Ross and Celine Dion. They really are the most incredibly underrated band of all time. Their talent is just insane.

He will keep trying to make her love, greatest love of her life, never giving up, Robin beautiful voice!

What I never see anyone mention in this video is they are all dancing which is very rare to see with them. It makes the video even more interesting to me.

I think this is an acknowledgment of how relationships are hard work, and a lot of times, you have to "fight" to push through and get it back on track. LOVE this song. It was so different than anything they'd ever done up to this time. Magic, I'm tellin' ya'. GREAT reaction!

Fuck yeah

This was the Bee Gee's biggest hit in the 80's. It got to #1 in seven countries, and broke into the top ten in 8 others. In America, however, it only reached #75, because American Radio Stations had effectively blacklisted the Bee Gees due to the disco backlash. Most of the best Bee Gees songs of the 80's - Heartbreaker, Chain Reaction, Woman In Love, Guilty, Islands In The Stream - were given away to other people because they couldn't get songs on the radio under their own name.

They did not give away their songs to other people because they couldn’t get played, what are you even talking about? 😂 The songs artists like Diana Ross, Dolly Parton, Barbara Streisand, Kenny Rogers, etc had written for them were specifically written _with them in mind._ Barry even went out of his way to write and sing said songs in a similar style to the artists on the demos he recorded. After the disco era Robin and Barry did their own thing for a bit, with Maurice dividing his time between both, because they wanted to chill and take their music in a different direction after the full-on nature of their career in the second half of the 70s. Yes, the disco backlash and radio stations refusing to play their music was well known, but Barry writing songs for others had nothing to do with it and everything to do with who he was mingling with and collaborating with during his own time.

@@Erizedd I totally agree with your statement.

There's a great video of them doing this song live at the big all-star concert some years ago to celebrate the birthday of Nelson Mandela, and who do you think was the superstar who joined them onstage to play drums for them? - none other than Phil Collins himself! An awesome show.

Beautiful song by such talented brothers.

This is in my top ten of favorite songs.

Bee Gees did make use of innuendo. Check out "Tokyo Nights". I love Robin's 'Oh girl'.

Yup you nailed the freak of the BEEJEES

This song is from the album ESP. Did not fare well in the states but went platinum in the UK. They released this song again on the One album from 1989. Ironically, One went #1 in the United States. Still Waters album 1997, people decided it was okay to like the Bee Gees again. I love the Bee Gees!

🎶🎵🎶 I remember this came out when I was Stationed in the U.K. 😏oh my youth Easy to bounce to 🥁

She wins again, but he's not giving up on their love. The fortress is an emotional fortress. It's her heart. This is in my top 5 BeeGees songs.

I WAS alive when this song came out, and I loved it immediately. Extremely boppy, a ballad techno, yet the lyrics quickly tear your heart out. For me as a woman, the lyric that really got me was "...we do nothing but compete", which rang so shockingly true !! The other hook was the perfect key change! :) Looking back, I'm shocked that this VERY 1990s style song was actually released in '87, not 10 yrs later. After all, 1987 was the year ST:NG premiered. Doesn't seem like the two were of the same era !! Moreover, I wanted to say that this song, which the Bee Gees themselves EXPECTED TO BE A HIT, actually never really charted in the US (#75 on Billboard - #1 in the UK & #20 in Australia). But it seems to have STARTED that techno trend in music this early, soon followed by the Simpsons' Do the Bartman (1990) !! Ahh, on second thoughts, John Farnham ("Far-num") released his fabbo similar-beat techno hit "Pressure Down" in 1986-87 which charted to #27 ?? a year earlier than Bee Gees with this arrangement style. So either the Bee Gees or Farnsey started the trend! Love them both, they are classic, no matter what. www.chartbeats.com.au/1987 (You Win Again), australian-charts.com/showitem.asp?interpret=John+Farnham&titel=Pressure+Down&cat=s (Pressure Down charts data, John Farnham official vid clip here: kzread.info/dash/bejne/d6Gp1sOtY8KvgJM.html).

Stayin Alive will definitely be day 7!

Alberta Canada loves you

I really like this song. You mentioned about having someone... except for hospital admissions, and a day or two here and there, I spent 1998 to 2020 with the love of my life. And his ashes are one my cabinet. I just miss him so much. . In the space of 7 years, I lost both of my parents, my service dog Luna, and the other half of my heart. There was one thing my grandmother used to say... even if you're angry, give your partner a kiss hello and a kiss goodbye, cause you never know. You probably saw this wall of text and didn't read it. It's ok. I just had to articulate it while it was still fresh in my ming. Your reactions make my nights less lonely. You make me laugh. For that, thank you.

It's all about the melody and the words fitting in.

Oh no, he meant what you thought he meant in that song. They could be a little rotten, and I loved every bit of it!!

There are a lot more great Bee Gees songs than just 7 that you are playing this week .You need to do a lot more Bee Gees.

For sure with 31 million certified sales and one of the biggest best selling single in pop history and grammy for world song 1978 - and indeed their biggest monster banger and the cultural hallmark of the Seventies ever - Stayin Aaaaaaliiiiiiive 😆🕺🎖 with half billion views on KZread 💪 will be a proud finale of your BeeGees week

Maurice created the "stomps" in his studio on his new equipment! There are no drums except on the live version! Love it!!

A great anthem from The Bee Gees.

Too much heaven

Love this song. So distinctive, those voices. First time I heard this was on my car radio in Norway late eighties, and I new straight away it was the BeeGees. First time I heard them sing was in the sixties in Australia, Brian Henderson’s Bandstand.

Can we please have a second week of Bee Gees? Pretty please 🙂?

Blind guess on next song: Staying Alive. On this one it's one of my faves.

Awesome bro!!! Jive Talking next please

Another wedding song - a bit haunting, a bit dark but about the piwer of love surging forth despite the uncertainties of life or self. The Moody Blues 'Nights in White Satin'. Congrats on the wedding!

Love this song!!!

I’m loving this week of thing you’re doing 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 now you gotta do Week of Andy Gibb the brother in the Bee Gees that left and went solo he’s got some fire

Finally will be Stayin' Alive. If you wanted heartbreak, maybe How Do You Mend A Broken Heart.

they got so much soul

Banda maravilhosa!👏👏👏👏👏❤❤❤🇧🇷

Love The Bee Gees, but I would love to see you react to the band Survivor. Perfect 80’s rock band. Eye of the Tiger, The Search is Over (great for a wedding playlist), Is this Love, Burning Heart, Can’t Hold Back, High on You. Please!

Its always incredible to me that Barry writes such powerfully romantic lyrics about the hypocrisy of relationships, yet he’s been married solid for like 50 years. I’m not saying that marriage is easy & they haven’t had their ups & downs. But it’s usually the serial crooners that write stuff like this.

Please, another week of BeeGees. You pretty much concentrated on their disco era which is a small part of what they did. I guess you're doing Stayin' Alive tomorrow, which is another disco hit.

One of my favorites!! I thought the same thing you did about the lyrics! 👏👏👏

👍

It has to be Night Fever....The most sold album of all time to date...

Too Much Heaven

Man you need to hear: (One) and (Love You Inside Out)

Have you listened to For Whom The Bell Tolls yet? If not, you should😊

❤❤❤❤❤

Stayin Alive

Jive Talkin. Tragedy. For Whom The Bell Tolls. Words. Nights On Broadway. To Love Somebody. I Started A Joke. (Our Love) Don't Throw It All Away. You Should Be Dancing. Love So Right. Love You Inside and Out. I've Got To Get A Message To You. Alone. One. Emotion. More Than A Woman. Run To Me. How Can You Mend A Broken Heart.

Keep in mind that Barry has been married to the same woman for 50 years !!

Robin Gibb 👍👍

You doing Staying Alive for the grand finale

React to Jive Talkin

I was 16 in 87 the year my favorite auntie passed away

Check out "One".

Did you hear the little solo parts by Robin? Great voice, but Barry almost always takes the lead.

Staying Alive

🎶💗🎶

Anybody watching this know what his number one song was? I just looked at this date and realized this was a whole year ago!

Please do a reaction weekly to Whitesnake💨🔥🔥🔥

Can you please react to the darkness - I believe in a thing called love? Absolute banger!

To much heaven or staying alive

Try run to me,too much heaven,tready,first of may,love you inside out.

Do a Week of The Doobie Bros!

if you want a rock love song try Aerosmith don't want to miss a thing

CHECK I M SATISFIED

Apparently i try to hard... 🙄😏

Wrong meaning of hit you from all sides

No. Sorry, Day 5 and 6 were NOT enjoyable. Odd choices. Where did you get them from? If it was from suggestions, that's bizarre, frankly. You might not want to listen to that commenter again. Sorry. I did subscribe, but I can't say I enjoyed day 5 or 6 of Bee Gees. I LOVE your personality though. And some of your newer reactions have bad song audio, but I think it's because of that annoying running "chat", and the vocal interruptions from that. Not a good choice. Sorry. I might end up un subscribing,

Staying Alive
