  • In this video we examine the many awesome vocal styles employed by the Brothers Gibb, aka The BEE GEES, on How Deep Is Your Love - ISOLATED VOCALS.
    Bee Gees - How Deep Is Your Love - Isolated Vocals - Analysis and Singing Lesson
    The Bee Gees are more than deserving of respect for their tremendous artistry but unfortunately they had to deal with being stigmatized as just a disco era group even though that doesn’t begin to reflect the total sum of their parts.
    What other bands can you think of that were pigeon holed to a particular genre and were thus denied the credit they truly deserved? Share with me in the comments!
    As we look at the isolated vocals from “How Deep Is Your Love” we’ll explore how well-crafted the Bee Gees’ tunes were as we look at the genius of their songwriting.
    I’ll break down all the changes and major 7s they used as well as the flexibility that their range gave them in writing great songs.

      You should search for how this song came about, heavily influenced by Blue Weaver who was not given a writing credit, which was criminal since he created large parts of the song structure in terms of the chords and progression of the song. It was written in a chateau in Furnace.

    In my opinion Bee Gees are the best group ever existed. Been a fan since 1974 and still am. Barry’s voice is incredible and Robin sounds like an Angel. There isn’t any others even getting close to the sound of those guys.There youngest brother Andy was also amazing. If you haven’t listened to him you definitely should do so. Today they don’t do music like this anymore but thankfully we always have Bee Gees and Andy’s music. I absolutely love those brothers ❤️❤️❤️

    I love Barry's ununciation and emphasis on this song. He's almost whispering, except where he opens up on "breaking us DOWN" and "they should all just let us BE." The conviction is so strong yet it's so subtle.
    The BeeGees are so overlooked and it's a shame that they were dismissed because "disco sucks." First, it doesn't, you wouldn't have MJ's "Billy Jean" without "Staying Alive." Second, they have an amazing catalog spanning decades with multiple styles. I'd love to see you break down more of their songs, especially some of their falsetto work.

    Too Much Heaven would be another one to analyze. Big Bee Gees fan here, listened to all their albums and love most of them, know all their popular songs as well as their not so famous deep cuts, but Too Much Heaven will always be my favorite Bee Gees song. Fantastic instrumental and harmonies, one of the best R&B songs of all time, written and performed by three European bros - truly an incredible group.
    I hate to say this because a lot of people say this about their favorite groups to try and seem special, but I truly think the Bee Gees, as musicians, are underrated. They weren’t just a disco act but amazing songwriters and melody writers (in fact, they only ever wrote a few disco songs). They deserve to be mentioned when talking about the greatest writers of all time.

    Since I was young my parents listened to the Bee Gees. I didn’t think much of them because I grew up listening to them, but years later when I started to want to sing I rediscovered them and finally understood just how good they were. I’ve been practising singing to their songs for years now and I still haven’t grown tired of them, everytime I sing these songs I discover something new about the songs, the Bee Gees or myself. They made so many hit songs that if you are to cover their legacy you won’t be done under a few hours. I’m all for it though 👍

    What is so amazing to know is they had no music lessons and they couldn't read music. How do you write great songs when you can't read music? They had such internal talent that all this was possible. I've loved them since I was a teenager and I'm in my sixties now. I sad saw the loss of 3 of the brothers. I hope they are all resting in peace. We greatly miss them all. I wish music today was like this. Sadly it isn't. Auto correct and electronic clean up is todays music. Hardly anyone plays instruments anymore. I'd love to see you do a Bee Gees athon. Thanks for doing this Ken. Stay safe and take care.

      Well, there were songs and music before there were written notes and music theory. Barry once told about orchestras (presumably meaning orchestra conductors) telling them they couldn't construct songs the way they sometimes did but they went ahead and did so anyway, to the great pleasure of millions. Of course an orchestra of professionally trained musicians playing the music of professionally trained composers is a thing of beauty but not the only route to beautiful music. These boys were just overflowing with natural talent that was best left to roam free wherever it took them.

I thought ‘that’s not a song, that’s not a record, that’s a place where people sing and I love going to that place.”

    In my Opinion the bee gees were one of the best bands ever to grace the presents of a stage. def top 5 bands of all time if we are talking vocals. they all had different voices but blended so well together and the song writing was some of the best ever. I also thought it was amazing that they started out in the 60's and reinvented themselves in the 70's where they don't even sound like the same band. Name another band that has done that equally as well? The Gibb Brothers were on another level folks there will never be another. I know you said they started out and they were Kind of Corny but there 60's stuff to me was amazing. I actually like that more than the 70's bee gees but hey what can I say all Bee Gees era songs are impressive. You have to be great when Ken can't find anything to critique. Great Analysis Ken.

The BeeGees pianist (I forgot his name!) got really emotional talking about he and Barry writing this song and how special it still is to him. And how when the sun shown through the window they came up with “I see your eyes in the morning sun”. It’s cool to listen to tape of he and Barry tinkering around with the song, coming up with lyrics!

    They re-invented their sound every decade , but they were able to still sound like themselves as well. Barry said that they didn’t always connect but they stayed around. A lot of their songs were hits in Europe and Asia and just got “meh” reactions in the states. Now people are listening to those songs snd wondering why they weren’t hits over here!?! There are so many great songs-I googled once songs written by The Bee Gees and got a list of close to 1k and at that time I think there were some missing from the list as well as Barry’s “ In the Now” songs.

Think it could be nice, to isolate that one, if you're willing to. By myself (vocals and 12string Acoustic-Guitar), together with friends, that song is always on board by lil concerts. Not so well known songs of them are 'Every Christian Lion Hearted Man Will Show You', also from 1967 and 'Smoke And Mirrors' from 1997. I'll swear toya, absolutely incredible singing, above every level.

    Loved them for decades, since I was a young teen. First artist I ever loved so much I went backward in time to discover and equally enjoy their earliest works from the 60s. They wrote enigmatic lyrics, and had a sound like no other before or since. Just as you say Ken, BeeGees music took you on a sonic journey.
    Amazes me to this day they never read music or had theory knowledge, just a gift. There's clips of Barry working with a keyboard player (forget his name) using only the music in his head while the keyboardist 'translated' the changes into chords. I do believe it was this very song. Barry painstakingly corrected him bar after bar till he got what Barry was 'hearing'.
    RIP Andy, Mo and Rob. Thank you and big brother Barry for making one unhappy kid's life so much brighter.

    The fact they are brothers, it helped them to blend perfectly, not to mention they had been singing/writing together since they were young kids! They knew each other so well. It also may explain why Andy wasn’t part of the core group as he was even younger, after the trio had seen some success. Then all the tragedy that hit that family… so sad. But they were SO talented- love them!
    BTW- the name “BeeGees” was named after their first real manager, not the family. They were the “Gibb Brothers” before that. It’s commonly thought of as being “Brothers Gibb (BG)”, not the case.

    I'd love it if you could do "Summer Breeze"
    I think the 70s was a golden era of recording fidelity, songwriting, and talent.

      @@kentamplin I really did Ken. You really understand the artistry of vocalisation. I remember seeing the 3 brothers sing a cappella jive talkin live on a BBC tv show in the 80’s. It was unrehearsed but delivered a touch of magic.

    If I could have been ANYONE in the '70's, I'd have been Barry Gibb. I was 7 in 1977 and my sister was 13 when 'Saturday Night Fever' came out and that whole phenomenon was born. Living in Northern NJ, the songs and the mood was right on our doorstep and I can still clearly remember hearing these songs endlessly on AM radio, Kasey Kasem's 'Top 40' countdown and of course the double album that my sister would endlessly blast from her upstairs bedroom against the wishes of my Dad!!. For my sister, it was this, KISS and the Who. My brother who would have been in college at this time was a 'Dead Head' and later introduced me to bands like Queen, Fleetwood Mac and others.
    Later in the mid '90's, my sister and I went to see the Bee Gees in central NJ (Garden State Arts Center) and they were remarkable. Stellar band (of course!!), self-deprecating, funny and just one iconic song after another. Barry knew how to hold an audience, play up his 'sex-symbol' status (without being obnoxious about it) and their voices were on! It was a privilege spending an evening with them (I also saw them perform a short set at the Atlantic Records concert in 1988) and just digesting and absorbing what they offered. I left that concert telling my sister that I would rank their catalog against anyone's. And I mean anyone's. IF you really think back and consider the output of music they had released for themselves and others from the mid '70's through the end of the '70's, it is astounding. No one will EVER have the run of hits and success they had in that time. They were so successful that the inevitable backlash would hit them throughout most of the '80's.

    I've been going through a chord chart of this song lately just strumming it and picking out some melodies. It really is classy song writing, all those jazzy sevens and inversions, major, minor colouration, its all over the show but works so well you don't notice it listening to the song it just flows. Great stuff of genius really.
