When I was 15 years of age I saw Andy Gibb skateboarding and he was truly a great skateboarder ! I was amazed and astonished as were all the girls standing together to watch him skateboading at our school. He showed up as a promise to a girl in our school but we were never told who the girl was, only that he was going to come to our school and to watch out for him. He was so beautiful, I can still see him in my mind, his long golden wavy hair streaming over his shoulders as he sped by on his skateboard. He kept smiling and proving his skill on the board. I think he had a lot of fun and energy and he was certainly a good-looking guy. He was a cheeky handsome devil at such young age. The year was 1977, he would have been 19 years of age..... It's something that I will never forget....I saw Andy Gibb with my own eyes !
Drugs killed him, not greed. You should change your headline!! It's misleading!!
He would have been 66 this March, he was born the day before me. Sad, so talented and so handsome.
Drug addiction is a terrible thing. Unfortunately, people enjoy the experience and the price is very, very high at times.
He died in drugs not greed its so sad he is a good singer.✌️🥰❤️
Please… he wasn’t greedy . His talent was enough to keep him successful. He unfortunately was caught up in an addiction that is hard for him and anyone to overcome no matter the help. It’s very sad. It also wasn’t the responsibility of his brothers to fix him. That’s something that must eventually come from within. Let him rest in peace until the time of resurrection when he will shine not in fame but life. 💕
I loved Andy and The Bee Gees it started in grade school and remains this day. I don't believe greed killed him. I think he died of depression and his cocaine habit. He was so handsome, sweet, and talented. Very sad. I cried. 😢💔🙏
Andy was my teen idol. His voice was like caramel and his countenance was majestic. I remember where I was when I heard that he had died. My daughter and I were on the way to the beach; the rain was horrendous. Some news person came on the radio and announced that Andy Gibb had died. I had to pull off the road, I was so shocked. I still miss him and play his music a lot.
Tragic he died so young he had so much to give his fans but he's not forgotten
Andy's brother, Maurice, warned him, that he was going to lose everything if he didn't get help for his addiction. It's sad he passed too young. He left behind a daughter, and other mourners.
His death due to myocarditis would probably have been prevented if it happened today. Dying just 5 days after
turning 30 it’s a tragedy. I learned about all these types of music due to my mom, 49, who loves all that music.
Bottom line, Andy had an addiction. It's Sad he passed. I Loved him.
Seeing his net worth at death was 5 million, I don't think the title for this video is accuarite cause if that's what you call poverty then I'd be good with that. Andy was my teen crush. Have all his albums and seen him in concert. My walls were covered in his posters. So sad he died so young.
What a great talented guy!!! So much feeling. Nobody can come close to these TRUE ARTISTS NOWADAYS!!!!❤
He was a handsome young man,sad he had to end up as he did.
Seems like there wasnt much lucky with the boys in that family. Even Robin and Maurice died relatively young also. My favourite was always Barry,Im so glad we still have him ❤❤❤❤
You people just say anything about Andy Gibb but what you don't say is Andy was a really nice person who was just a baby back in those days. and it was that crazy music industry and his mother who really put way to much pressure on him. He was a kid and even Victoria Principal knew she was to old to be dealing with Andy. I meet Andy Gibb, back then I was dealing with a severe case of polio. My uncle was Louis Armstrong. And I will say this Marie Osmond used the hell out of Andy because he was so young ya and pretty. And everyone knew the Osmond was through even Ed Sullivan had enough of their mess . So what did they do took hold of a young Andy Gibb. The Bee Gees should have done more to protect their younger brother but they had their hands full. Still Don't put all that madness on Andy. Those mistakes was already put their in his path he was a very sensitive kid. Incredibly talented but still a kid. I go once a year to his grave in forest lawn because Andy always made my day and he still does. I play his music everyday. Andy was a big inspiration to me and he really believed I could one day walk and he was right. I not only walked but I won the 100x400 meters in track and field. I love Andy Gibb and I always will. 😊 I am a harpist and I wrote a beautiful song for Andy I call it Andy smile because he had such a beautiful beautiful smile.
It was so sad 😢, Andy was one of my favorites, I have all his vinyls ,I was devastated when the news announced his death, he was so talented like his brothers that always back him up.He will always be remembered by his fans , I'm one of them. ♥️🇨🇺🇺🇲
He was a darling 😢😢
Oh, please, take this headline away and respect the family and the kid.
What do you do with millions of money if you died early in life . Money is useless.. About Andy, will he enjoy his wealth what he pleases!May he Rest In Peace 🙏Thanks for sharing!
I can remember Andy's brothers talking about their grave concern about what was happening with Andy. Especially Barry, who seemed frantic with frustration over a perceived ending. I think it was only a matter of a couple of months; many weeks before they lost him.
The Bee Gees were exceptional in so many ways. Not only were they outstanding artists and performers, but they were lovely people and there was a family cohesion that was enviable.
I'm ever so glad I lived when I did to have experienced, enjoyed, and danced the nights away to their music. Forever in my heart, love forever to and for the Bee Gees.
❤ 😊❤
I love Andy Gibbs ❤ & brothers B.Gees they definitely can sing i didn't know he passed away at 30 yrs. So young rest in peace andy👑🙏🏽🕊❤️
Andy Gibb was a very gifted amd talented man that unfortunately died young. May he rest in peace knowing that his music lives in enjoyed by so many today.
Rest In Peace Andy, you were loved and adored by your fans.❤️
He’d have been better off if he had been less handsome with no brothers. If you or I used drugs we’d lose our jobs and soon run out of options. Andy could always leverage his good looks and famous family to go from one job to another without taking responsibility for his addiction and personal problems. By the time he started to realize this he had permanent heart muscle damage. The heart was not strong enough to pump the blood volume to the rest of the body. Then the excess fluid backs up into the lungs causing one to drown in their own fluids. The night before he died he went on an alcohol bender. The increase in fluids from the alcohol would have increased his blood volume putting further strain on his heart. We’re all going to die someday but he didn’t need to go out of this world that way. Very very sad case
Andy should've been told that he needed to be himself and not act like his brother, Barry. Wish he was still alive.😢
Wow I remember when his career skyrocketed and he was so in love with Victoria Principal- how tragic to leave here so early in his life 30 years too young- such a handsome and talented young man ❤🕊️
I'm sadden to learn that Andy Gibb was suffering w/depression and anxiety... the music industry is full of evil people that have zero compassion nor care what drugs do to young artists. These young (or mature) artists are known as "cash cows", they're worth more dead than alive.
I remember my sister and I had gone to shoot some hoops at our old middle school, when our brother showed up and told us that Andy Gibb had passed away... I was so stunned! I cried, went home and played his greatest hits album over and over.😢
He was too young to have died like that... R.I.P. Andy Gibb.🥀
Poor Andy, i remember when he passed, i was a kid when his music came out & loved his songs. Thats a sad story. He could od had it all, actually Everything 💔
He was the first poster that hung on my wall as a young girl. Victoria Principal only used him for publicity and where was his so called loving family at when the press and others were constantly comparing him to his brothers. They should have spoke out and said that he was a great talented performer and not a wannabe bee gee. It's not easy to live in someone else's shadow. He's gone way to soon. But his music will live on FOREVER!!
I think when Victoria left him for her plastic surgeon it broke his heart tremendously and only pushed him further into addictions & drinking. It is said that one can die of a broken heart; the trauma of losing someone you love can actually do damage to the heart. IMHO this is what happened to him and the drinking only made it worse. So sad to see such a handsome guy go like that.
He was gorgeous. x
He wasn’t the youngest of the beegees. He was the youngest Gibbs brother.
Just say no to drugs
He had a very difficult time dealing with the breakup from actress Victoria Principal. He had fallen hard for her and was crushed. He was younger and probably less experienced. It seemed at the time he became immersed in the drug world not long after the breakup which no doubt took a toll on his heart.😢😢 I still have some of his records. ❤
Love his music "Don't Throw it Away"
That's not true. Victoria Principle broke his heart and the cocaine didn't help.
Such a shame, good looking guy, what a pity he went down the wrong way but it shows it can happen to anyone, he looks and sounds like young Barry, RIP
My sister had the biggest crush on Andy. Such a sad story. Drug addiction, depression, and anxiety have killed many stars. Such a sad, sad story. Too bad his family couldn't convince him to stop ruining his finances and health. Losing his recording contract had to be a huge blow. I remember when he died, some wanted to blame Victoria Principal. Cocaine causes heart failure. Just a tragic story! Thirty is a very short life indeed.
He was not the youngest of The Bee Gees. He was never part of The Bee Gees. And he wasn’t the youngest of 5 brothers, but youngest of 4.
A star that went out too soon.
😢😢😢...i missed the BEEGEES and of course ANDY GIBBS...❤
Listening again still sounds good
It's so tragic. It still hurts deep in me knowing u're gone. Your vocal timbre with all its pathos touched my soul like no other artists. Andy, I will always love u, forever and ever.
This might sound harsh but he died doing what he loved. He didnt want the same life as his brothers. The person has to decided what they want. You can only lead the horse to water.
COCOAINE KILLS..LONG TERM DAMAGE
Same problem with Whitney Houston
cocaine addiction
I worked with Kim Reeder as manager of our office in south west Sydney back in 2007-08.
Andy wasn't a member of the Bee Gees. He was their brother.
I'm tired if people blaming Victoria Principal for Andy's downfall and death. He was already doing drugs before they met. After his guest appearance on the sitcom Gimme A Break, he was dating the actress who played the oldest daughter. She also said Andy's drug use ended things between them. Andy tried rehab various times. I read that when he would get out of rehab, he went back to the drug dealers. Everything he lost- co-hosting Solid Gold, a Broadway play, etc was due to drugs. So sad and tragic. RIP Andy 💔💔😢🙏
God, i had a major crush on Andy as a 70s teen....So sad the way he died.
I don't think he ever got over Victoria Principal
He was Amazing!!! But gone too soon. ❤
No his heart killed him from past drug abuse
His Brothers tried to tell him what was going to. happen to his career & all his luxuries if he didn’t stay away from the drugs but he didn’t listen. They tried to help him but he didn’t finally get off drugs till it had already damaged his health then being depressed ( he suffered from depression) on his birthday he went on an alcohol bender that ended his life because of his heart problem but he was Off Drugs & had been for a while. So sad he was so talented & good looking with so much opportunity. 💙😢
I remember hearing when he passed away. I was shocked. I loved his music.
Not enough people talk about Andy. They speak of the bee gees more.
His family loved him. Always.❤❤
Andy's father and one brother (Maurice) had a problem with drinking, so I wonder if addiction/depression was genetic.
Barry loved him so much HE TRIED TO HELP HIM XXXX
My walls were plastered in Andy Gibb photos and his brothers the bee gees it's such a shame his life was cut so short through drugs waste of superb talent. Rip Andy gone but never forgotten
Can't get over the resemblance of Andy Gibb to Heath Ledger . . .
That proves that drugs and alcohol addiction can pull you down even you are well known. You will have a hard time to rehabilitate your self. Sometimes being known and famous is toxic when you don't know how to handle it. So sad!
R.I.P. Andy!💙🌈
We share the same birthdate and both babies of the family.
Except, you’ve never heard of me.
RIP Andy!
Great performer...Sad what happened to him.
Being separate from his brother help his career grow I preferred him over the bee gee's because he sang at a slightly deeper voice but when Disco died in the 80's so did his career even his brothers disappeared some went R&B but were over shadowed by hard rock
it was not greed that killed him but insecurities and fame.
❤ always love the beegees band for ever
Thank you for this presentation. He did so much in a short amount of time. He was also in NZ a lot. He moved so much !
Sad. Rest in Peace.
He was such a bright and talented star
Andy Gibb is one of my fav way back then until now. I still have mu cd music of him whom I love until now. Moral lesson be happy and contented of what you have. Lifes happiness cannot be measured of how much money you have on your pocket but the contentment within
I loved this dude
We can all discuss the " why and thoughts about his death.."
But I think the only reall thing is that no father or mother , family or relative should been thrown into this kind of greeve missing and still loving. No matter how famous...
😢❤
I really didn't know who he was but one morning while I was laying in bed with my new lover of about three months I heard one of his songs that made me feel so much in love with the person I was with at that time no other artists to this day ever has given me that feeling I miss the both of them 🥴😣😇!!!
He was my first crush back then.
He was an awesome singer he was my major crush
I always thought that Andy was the most handsome of all the brothers. He and Victoria were a beautiful couple too . Sadly he was taken way to soon he was so young .
Andy’s Achilles heel was alcohol. I suspect the problem was hereditary. His liver may have always been deficient, even before the introduction of the alcohol. He died from the accumulative affects of what alcohol did to his body. He died, I almost hate to say it, a lowly drunk. His faulty liver caused his body to suffer as much damage from alcohol as someone who drank steadily for 50 years.
You see, if his liver didn’t process the alcohol as quickly as a normal person, than he stayed under the influence longer with less alcohol. His alcoholism progressed faster and much harder than say a person whose liver processes alcohol normally. His liver pickled him. Probably hereditary. The liver, of course.
I have seen many hard core alcoholics get drunk, stumbling and slurred speech after just two beers. The alcohol simply didn’t convert very well and it accumulated in their blood.
I know it doesn’t help much, but I do feel sorry for these kind of alcoholics. They got dealt a bad hand of cards.
I’m a different kind of alcoholic.
No his problem was getting into drugs & blowing all his $$ on them. Got lost in the drug culture like alot of young people. So sad he was so talented He would have joined the BGs had he lived😂
HE WAS INSECURE, LOST AND
HAD NO IDEA HOW TO DEAL WITH VULTURES AND THE TEMPTATIONS OF THE BUSINESS. NO BUSINESS MIND, WHATSOEVER.
Any fame can be dangerous.
I remember he was huge here in the U.S. in the 70s. The girls loved him and his music. Too bad he couldn't get it together.
I always thought they were from Australia. I never knew they eere from england.
any addictions esp. drugs and alcohol will ruin anyone's life. Drugs and alcohol is not the solutions in any kinds of problems or personal demons.
Cocain ruined Andy 's heart, it's just that simple
I had my first girlfriends and Crushes to Andy's Music in the 70's , Andy had good songs , and I bet helped create a lot of New Beings , Someone should have taught Him better Money skills but He really did get to Have fun and in a decent generation , R.I.P.
I loved all of the Gibb brothers Andy was great, it was sad what happened to him.He died when I was in high school and they announced it over the load speaker,I was devastated but it made me love The Bee Gees even more.
He was a great singer, and had a great band. Loved his music. 🎶
I had his posters of him all over my bedroom walls!!❤❤❤
He ‘s still in my heart and my memory as my talented singer .
To the people who are saying his brothers didn't help him THAT IS FALSE!! BARRY, ROBIN & MAURICE worried 😯 constantly about their baby brother ANDY!! They were trying to get ANDY to join the BEEGEES right before he died!! They were ALWAYS CONCERNED about his health and lived in fear 😱 of losing him to death!! Unfortunately that is what happened!! A couple of years ago BARRY GIBB gave a concert singing their hits, some of ANDY'S hits and said how much he LOVES them and misses all 3 of his brothers!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ RIP MAURICE, ROBIN & ANDY GIBB!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ I have ALWAYS LOVED ALL OF THEM & APPRECIATE their TALENTS in the music industry!! GOD BLESS BARRY, his children and his brothers children, STAY SAFE & GOOD HEALTH ALWAYS for the GIBB FAMILY!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
he and jon erik hexum. both men, childhood crushes. both beautiful and fragile and free. gone in the blink of an eye but their memory remains stored, with flowers, forevermore.
it remembers me a litle bit of leif Gareth songs etc.
This was extremely sad, I remember it well, very tragic. As so many things in this fallen world.
He passed away today March 10, 1988! 36 years ago, I remember this well, very sad 😢 he was such a good singer 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Massive drug addiction killed him.
Barry and Andy encapsulated the stylish charismatic pop star image of the late 70’s/early 80’s with just the right amount of chest hair showing from the V neck sweaters. I saw on a bio that they were almost like twins even with birth marks on the same places.
His addiction to coke is what killed him.plus he was the youngest, spoiled rotten, did not experience the many hardships of showbiz life with his brothers. I was a huge Andy Gibb fan and very disappointed at the decisions he made in his life. Hell, he had it all, yet he blew it!
N9 He died from using drugs..
