    The Bee Gees started in 1958 and have had hits in the 1960's, the 1970's, the 1980's, the 1990's, and the 2000's. They have always written their own music. They are not a "disco" group. They have always considered themselves R & B. Barry Gibb discovered that he could sing in that falsetto voice when recording "Nights on Broadway" from 1975. They needed someone to do some ad lib "screaming." at the end of the song. Barry found out that he could do it and actually sing a whole song doing that quite well. They were working on their next album, when Robert Stigwood came to them and asked them if they could write some songs for his movie which would become Saturday Night Fever. They gave him four songs which were already done and were intended for their next R & B album. No one could have predicted the success of that movie. The media attacked that whole "disco" thing, as they continue to attack things to this day. Barry Gibb's eldest son, Stephen Gibb, formed a heavy metal band in 1989, and he has always been extremely proud of his father. Barry Gibb took him to see KISS in concert when he was five years old. Of course, they went back stage to meet them. Stephen said it blew his mind when they started taking off their makeup. The Bee Gees are legendary and have an enormous library of work spanning 5 decades. Enjoyed your vlog!

    They were just freakin' great artists and their longevity is remarkable! Many hits in 60s and 70s (then of course they tied the Beatles with #1s in 1978!) The songcraft was second to none. The SNL and Grease soundtracks alone blew everything else outta the water! THEN, when ppl tripped on LSD and declared Rock and Roll threatened and acted so album-burning shitty (fall of disco), THEN, the Bee Gees just rallied, came back, and just kept on writing...MAJOR HITS! For superstars: Dionne Warwick, Barbra Streisand, Diana Ross, Celine Dion, Olivia-Newton-John, Yvonne Elliman, Frankie Valli, Samantha Sang, Dolly Parton. Kenny Rogers, Conway Twitty. THEN, even more hits for Bee Gees, again in their own right, in the 80s and 90s. Fuck, they "hit" literally every decade with billboard top 10s (with many of them #1s)! THEN, of course, every boy band wanted to cover a Bee Gees song. Hits in every decade from 1960 thru the 2000s (FIVE DECADES) is pretty damned spectacular, I would say!

    Disco was the most popular type of music in the late '70s, but almost as popular was the notion that "Disco Sucks." There were a lot of t-shirts with that phrase on them. I used to be in the "Disco Sucks" camp, but after all these decades, the whole issue seems totally irrelevant.

      KBOB disco grew out of the gay nightclubs in 71-77 in London NYC and Germany. I know I was there in all those places and the anti-disco movement was pretty blatantly homophobic in those days. Just saying cos I lived it. Disco went mainstream from these clubs.

      @@ScottPothan The anti-disco propaganda was fueled not only by homophobia but it was racist as well. Disco music was seen as a threat to the "white" America. I doubt many music artists were actually "against" disco, a very few white racist DJ's contributed to creating the anti-disco movement.

      They were, not least because there was music for everyone, from kids through heavy rockers to grannies and I liked that. There were also fun novelty songs that it was cool to hate but sold remarkably well and tended to be a guilty pleasure. Variety is the spice of life and music then was incredibly varied.

    One of my top favorite albums of all time, "Saturday Night Fever" (good movie too)... and, yes, you can't NOT move to this song... and their other disco songs as well. They were the kings of disco. Their older music, they sing in their more natural lower tone. Try "Jive Talkin'" that's a fun one in their lower octive (sp). Disco was so popular in the late 70's. I was 14 when this came out. by the time I got to high school in 1980, there was the whole "Disco Sucks" thing. But I still loved it and still do. It's just such fun music to listen and dance to. : )

    The song Night Fever was the Bee Gees biggest hit, staying at #1 for 7 weeks. It is on the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack along with Stayin' Alive. Disco revived their career in the early 70's with a song called Jive Talkin'. Before that the Bee Gees were known for their ballads like I Started A Joke, Run To Him and their biggest ballad called How Can You Mend A Broken Heart. After Jive Talkin', almost all of their songs were in the Disco genre. They made much more money on Disco than they had playing ballads. The Bee Gees rank as the #1 Disco artists of the Disco era, hands down. #2 on that list is Donna Summer. Try her hits Love To Love You Baby and Hot Stuff. You will like!

  • @lena-mariaglouis-charles7036

    The BeeGee's started performing (singing in harmony...) in England, in the mid 1950's - Barry (the oldest brother...) was 9, the twins (Robin and Maurice...) were six...
    These three Musical Geniuses had the ability to musically adapt to each decade, and before the untimely (and unnecessary...) passing of brother Maurice, they were a force to be reckoned with for close to 50 years - composing, singing and writing (as well as producing...) their own material, and writing successful hits for Barbara Streisand, Dionne Warwick, Kenny Rogers/Dolly Parton and Diana Ross (to name a few...)...
    Barry's ability to sing in falsetto was discovered by pure accident - and all three brothers have/had amazing voices in their own right...
    They definitely encountered a lot of envy and jealousy during the disco era - still, whenever one of their latest hits (they had at least five at the same time, in the top 10...) played at any club, I still can remember how quickly the floor got absolutely packed...
    "Staying Alive" has the perfect beat for performing CPR on a person - an irony that didn't go over well with some people...
    I was 16 when this song hit the charts - and today, at 59, it still puts a smile on my face, and makes it impossible for me not to move, whenever I listen to it...💃

The Bee-Gees might not be your cup of tea, but I think you have to appreciate the fact that they were good at what they did. The soundtrack to Saturday Night Fever is a must-have. It's disco, alright. But that music made the movie and started a whole wave of music and fashion that you either liked or didn't. Allow yourself to live in the moment of the song, absorb it. Feel the history in the song. There, you're time-traveling.

The movie was one of the first block buster over 100 million dollars bee gees brought disco back. And women were in love with them and the disco and night clubs were playing this and doing John moves from movie on the dance floors. Disco was dead...bee gees single handedlly brought it back.

    I was in high school when this was popular. You had three groups of people. Those who were only into rock and hated disco, those who were strictly into disco and Pop, and didn’t care about serious rock ‘n’ roll, and those who were fine with any of it. I mostly liked rock ‘n’ roll, but definitely listened to the Bee Gees stuff. The clothes that were worn during the disco era were terrible. I mean, three-piece angel flight suits? Pa-LEEZ!. Anyway, the reason this is called version one, is because a second version was done using clips from the movie ‘Saturday Night Fever’ in which the Bee Gees soundtrack was featured. Given the movie’s popularity, it made sense.

    There was a club just outside Detroit that had disco dancing upstairs and a rock n roll bar downstairs. Lots of fights in the parking lot.

    There was a lot of music snobbery about in those days, though I'm not sure it was from the groups, more from those who regarded their musical tastes as superior. I worked with one such guy who sneered at anything that was popular, dismissing one colleague with the disparaging remark "He'll be buying Eagles albums next'. So, imagine the delight when he got a girlfriend who dragged him along to a concert by the ultra pop, band Showaddywaddy. How are the mighty fallen.Johnny Lydon, lead singer of the main punk group the 'Sex Pistols' is a huge Bee Gees fan - though he probably kept quiet about it back them.

    I didn't hate dico or love it. It was just there. LOL. I mean I said I hated it because thats what you said. Also, most "true" rockers thought Kiss was just a gimmicky no talent band for 13-year-olds at the time. But I didn't mind a lot of Disco. I sort of had to at least like it because all the girls we knew were into it and well the lions go where the food is. Sadly, the soundtrack was on a continuous loop at the movie theater we always went to between shows. The movie theater had 3X's in it's name and well we got to know the soundtrack very well. I am pretty sure another version of the video is John Travolta walking through the streets of Brooklyn as this played. This is the movie that made him a star. He had just left the tv show "Welcome Back Kotter" and may have done a Stephan King movie( I think Christine or maybe a cameo in Carrie) just before this came out. Just after this, he did the movie "Grease."

    The disco got so popular and also hated that there was held a Disco Demolition Night in Comiskey park in Chicago during a baseball game. That was infact a disgrace by the founders of that event.
    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disco_Demolition_eNight
    Also in the late seventies and beginning of 1980 there were radio stations that held Bee Gees free weekends because nearly all music on the hitlists were either done by The Bee Gees or was written by them. They themselves in a span of 6 consecutive number 1's from late 1977 to end of 1979 and at one time had 5 songs song or written by them on the US top 10 at the same time. This has not been match by anyone except The Beatles.

    I think the biggest problem with disco was for a couple of years it was hard to find anything but disco on the radio and people got burnt out on it. Kinda like people are getting burnt out on rap and pop with auto tune today. We need an auto tune sucks revolution.

      And at the same time of Kiss and their popularity the BeeGees were at their height of popularity. I think back and I was a kid as well it all just runs together and you really couldn't have one without the other to create the 70s.

      Barry Disco music wasn't all that bad. It was basically "Dance" music with great kick drum and rhythms that got those butts on the dance floor! Personally as a DJ myself I think disco has gotten a BAD rap. And it's FAR superior than these anto-tuned whores and the gangsta rap garbage that permeates the radio today.

  • @Codex7777
    @Codex7777 Před 4 lety +1

    There was a lot of latent, and some not so latent, bigotry involved in the 'disco sucks' movement. Fuelled by the fact that it was perceived as music for women, black people and, above all, 'queers'. Some genuinely hated the music, others just kneejerkingly disliked it, refusing to even give it a chance. Above all else it was seen as 'unmanly'. Don't get me wrong, there were a lot of truly dreadful disco tracks around but... there were also some genuine classics. There can be a lot of snobbery amongst rock fans, towards other genres but most will have hidden pop and dance 'guilty pleasures. Dance music is usually experienced best in it's natural habitat, on the dance floor, in a club. Not a natural habitat for a lot of rock fans. ;) :)

    At all oof the sports stadiums disco was dead dead dead and them crowds there were mad at disco. They wanted to hear no more of it. Then John revolts made a dancing... music movie called Saturday day night live in New York City. This group was dead with their falsetto and disco music. This Unreleased album they had made was going To go nowhere. The producers heard about their recordings in the studio and ask for it as the backdrop for the movie. John had danced to another song in the movie but the artist refused to give the song to the producers. The editor took the song and others to put it to the movie. The song was off to the dancing. With Johns help they fixed the song to fit the dancing. The song was stayin alive. The movie was a blockbuster and The Bee Gees brought disco back and everbod was copying John moves in the movies. And The Bee Gees brought disco back with this song

    If you reacting to music you should know what singing in fasetto means, it's been done by many artists before and the bee gees took it to a whole new level, we're talking one the most iconic and successful songwriters in the history of popular music, the least you can do is educate yourself a little when it comes to music.
