They day its a small world but its amazing how you can miss so much, including one of the most successful groups in misic history. Welcome to this world, and enjoy.
Love that you appreciate them so much. Way before autotune. Raw talent of 3 brothers who wrote and sang their own songs! Grew up with them. Favorite to this day (and I’m 70!)
This is crazy how many people are shocked by this.. I guess I was born at the perfect time. Born 75, as a black man, my parents hand all their music to listen to, due to my parents. So seeing this I am laughing so much. But its good seeing young folks enjoy this. The Bee Gees have so many great songs.
I'm 74 years old, this was MY generation's music. Your right, no matter where we were, or what we were doing, we heard this beat, you gotta MOVE!!!! Brings back sooo many memories!
This song changed my life, for better or for worse. The Brothers Gibb took a lot of flack for their disco era but I think enough time has gone by that we can all agree they were f-ing awesome.
You are right, it makes you move!!!Loved watching you see this. There's so much great music from the Bee Gee's. So many millions of people love them all age's. They were a gift to Remember. Their music will live on thru all eternity.
Barry Gibb was blessed by the gods, man. Not only a prolific hit-making songwriter and great singer, but one of the best-looking men who ever walked the planet.
Music was real back in the day. No auto correct. No computer generated sound effects. Real voices that were recorded and played as they really sound. Alive. The voices were STAYING ALIVE.
This song was recorded with 100 beats per minute which 100 chest compressions per minute are required in CPR and the song will give you something to go by. Genius.
You ‘youngsters’ make me smile… growing up in the 60s and 70s - we had such GREAT music, and sadly, we often took it for granted!! It’s SO MUCH fun watching you all hear it for the first time. This was our ‘disco’ phase.. but The Bee Gees go WAY beyond this! They wrote great music, hit after hit, recorded much of it themselves, but also wrote for others. It’s a huge rabbit hole.. that you’ll enjoy going down!!
And all that great music we grew up listening to got lost and what is out there today, I just can't call it music. The 60s,70s and 80s was great stuff.
Yep, we didn't realize how good we had it with music back in the 70's and 80's, it started to go downhill from the 90's onwards and now music pales in comparison to what it used to be and the funny thing is, just like you, we took it for granted.
That, and every time you watch a movie/TV show and see some bad-ass strutting down the street it pops into your head whether it is in the sound track or not. :-)
One of the best songs written and sung, I’m 69 and BeeGees are right up there with the Beatles, you’d like Fanny Be Tender With My Heart , Tragedy and Too Much Heaven, loved your expression when the music came on, they’re 3 brothers and their harmonies, can’t be beat
I'm Latvian, and in 1977/78 I attended the only Latvian high school outside of the Soviet Union (Latvia was occupied at the time). A friend of mine and I spent hours trying to decipher the lyrics of this song.
Love the Bee Gees they are the best group ever. So much talent in these brothers, they have thousands of songs they have written and wrote for others. You are right the music is so good. You are a great reactor!! ...You should be Dancing.....Night Fever....Nights on Broadway....Alone.....You win Again......To love Somebody......One......She keeps on coming.....so very many songs.
The beat is "DISCO!" In the late 1970s Disco was the ultimate dancing music and entire clubs all over the country were dedicated to Disco. That whole Disco scene was shown in "Saturday Night Fever" with John Travolta. As a matter of fact, this song was used at the beginning of the movie when the credits were rolling.
Imagine creating the most powerful song to save the most life.. For those who doesn’t know: No pulse from either wrist or neck AND don’t hear breath: Human heart is of LEFT side (9 o’clock) 1. Lay person on their back. 2. Feel fingers for bottom left rib and towards middle of a human. 3. Point 4 fingers upwards. 4. And 4 fingers towards left (Hopefully imagine where the heart could be) and pump to the rhythm of ‘STAYING ALIVE’
to enter the Bee Gees rabbit hole is to enter a wonderous and deep hole. No auto-tune, raw talent, and 50 years of hits. The Brothers Gibb...never to be forgotten.
Yes the 1970s the best. I loved the Bee Gees. I bought their album back in the 1970s. I still got it! An honor to had came up in the 1970s.I had Bee Gees poster on my wall. The best decade of all time. DA 1970s.
Aloha enjoy your timeline yeah stay rocking now you know they exist stay in good spirits and best of health from an ex us marine Vietnam era music keeps us alive Semper Fi oooorah ciaos
When I did my first aid training I was taught to use this song as the beat to do CPR, as is the perfect timing for chest compressions. Love this song being used to literally keep people alive! 😁
I saw the BeeGees in concert at the St Paul Civic Center on July 21, 1979, exactly 43 years ago today, the day I just happened to watch your reaction of "Stayin' Alive." I had forgotten the date, and looked it up. Crazy coincidence. They had such a great Set List of songs, all the hits and more. It was totally awesome!
I grew up listening to the Bee Gees, & you have no idea how happy it makes me, to see the younger generation discover the music we fell in love with !!! All three brothers had amazing falsetto's, powerful chest voices, & could sing anything in between. They truly were a once in a lifetime gift of musical genius, in every aspect! Please review more of their music, you will not be disappointed. They span over many decades, & crossed quite a few genres. I believe, that if there is music in Heaven, it would sound like the Bee Gee's ❤❤
New reactor to Bee Gees? They are a class of it's own, just a level by themselves where nobody else is to find! Some facts about that song: Sold over 30 million copies worldwide and in 2018, 'Staying Alive' passed by 'Yesterday' from the Beatles, which was recorded over 10 years earlier by having the most airplays over the planet. Well and you didn't know anything about Bee Gees. I can tellya why: That's because medias often tried to put them out of the game and so called musicexperts didn't realise how extremely good they were. Wrote them down. The truth is, they are just in a row with Elvis, Bob Dylan, Beatles, Stones, Michael Jackson or Bruce Springsteen. Nothing beyond, but maybe above for many musiclisteners like me! So go on, checkin' them out and start with 'Tragedy' and then go to some of their earlier stuff like 'Lonely Days' and 'I've Gotta Get A Message To You'.
The one doing the high voice, in the middle, is the only one still alive. There was 4 brothers. All there songs are great. Your reaction was great. You can’t help but move your body when you listen to The Bee Gees. Awesome. 🎼🦋🎵♥️🎶👏👏
Just so no one misunderstands, the 4th brother, Andy, was not a Bee Gee. Brothers Barry, Robin & Maurice started performing in 1955 & took the name BGs/Bee Gee's in 1958 (Andy’s birth year). By the time Andy was 10, his brothers were already internationally known. They were all very supportive of Andy’s solo career. Barry wrote, co-produced & sang back-up on Andy’s 1st #1 hit, I Just Want To Be Your Everything. Shadow Dancing, also a #1, was written by all 4 brothers (again Barry sang back up & co-produced). Sadly, Andy’s mental health issues, cocaine & alcohol addiction, took a terrible toll on his health & career (he was dropped by his label), but his brothers kept trying to help (professionally & personally). Early 1988, they announced he would become a Bee Gee (beginning with their next album & 1989 tour), but he died before that could happen (March 10, 1988, age 30, of myocarditis).
@Almost Average We can agree to disagree. I am related to several people who hate music and would only not sis still if they heard a funeral dirge, and then only to prove it was not thier funeral. My parents hate music in general and would call the cops if they hear music that is loud enough to bother them. I grew up listening to music on headphones because they hate music so I can only "dance like no one is watching" when they aren't watching.
LOVE watching your age group discovering the awesome music I grew up with! It's like discovering thd music for the first time all over again! Keep it up!! 🤗 💞
I know right?; It's the greatest thing, seeing younger generations listen to and really hear the music of these days past! Great music we had back then and it's so awesome to see the youngers love and appreciate it! It gives us, who were there, even a greater appreciation of all of it, well for me anyway lol! It's awesome!
Everyone seems to do the disco era of the Bee Gees but they are so much more than that. I grew up with this great group. Love their early music especially 60's-70's. Some of their early hits were "Spicks & Specks", "New York Mining Disaster 1941", "To Love Somebody", "Holiday", "Massachusetts", "World", "And The Sun Will Shine", "Really & Sincerely", "Words", "The Singer Sang His Song", "I've Gotta Get A Message To You", "Lonely Days", "I Started A Joke", "Melody Fair", "First of May", "Give Your Best", "Lamplight" etc.
The Bee Gees were my all time favorite group for decades (now it’s Home Free). Pre-disco is epic, and post-disco is better than the disco era IMO. They did define disco, though.
@@jeffhensley6929 I do like all the Bee Gees stuff even their disco, just prefer the earlier songs. I still listen to a lot of classic rock as I grew up with it. But Home Free are my go to group now a days too.
It makes me smile to see you getting into the music. I grew up with these songs and my older sister used to play this on the "record player" over and over again. Lovely reaction , I'm enjoying watching a lot. Thank you.
They certainly DID exist for 50 years since they were little kids and are always rated among the top 5 selling artists of all time. This "disco" era is the one most people know but they could write and sing any style. All three were amazing singers and all three composed their songs including big hit songs for other big stars.
You MUST react to "You Should Be Dancing", one of the great bangers of all time. The Bee Gees always ended their concerts with this song. I dare you to sit still while listening to this- no way that happens. Facts!
I love to see someone like this nice young man discovering this great music. also when he used the term old school i hear talent. Thank you Greg, i subbed.
Lyrics explained by the Bee Gees: Robin recalls, "The subject matter of 'Stayin' Alive' is actually quite a serious one; It's about survival in the streets of New York, and the lyrics actually say that". Barry Gibb also recalls, "People crying out for help. Desperate songs.Everybody struggles against the world, fighting all the bullshit and things that can drag you down. And it really is a victory just to survive.
I used to dance the Latin Hustle to this song when I went clubbing back in the day. Those were the High School years back in NYC. I still dance to these songs when I hear them. You can also do the Bus Stop which is line dancing pretty much. This song always brings back good memories with old friends from the block and the high school years🥰 now I play this music with my granddaughters and my grandson because I try to keep that good music alive and pass it on. My generation had the best music 60s 70s and 80s✌🏻
Love the Bee Gees. Their music is timeless. Legends. This is another group that has so much content for you to listen to. Night Fever is one of my most favorites, and How Deep Is Your Love. They also have written many songs for other artists, and sung with other artists, like Lionel Richie
Three brothers doing what they do best. Inducted into the Rock N Roll and Song writers hall of fame. They wrote over 1000 songs, for themselves and others. Check out an early song that they wrote for Otis Redding but he died before he could record it, so they recorded it; Barry was 21 and the twins Robin and Maurice were 18 , the song is "To Love Somebody". This is probably the deepest rabbit hole out there.
You're so right about moving whether you want to or not. This song grabs your jive mechanism. I'm oooold and I still get moving in my chair and mouthing lyrics like I'm singing with them. LOVE this song! Great reaction and commentary!
Try their song Too Much Heaven - just absolutely beautiful. Another one you cannot help moving to is Jive Talking. I love watching the younger generation discover this great music.
I also love to watch you younger people listen to our music. They don’t know who they are until they listen. Then they realize they’ve heard their songs! Live it. Thanx for listening to this group especially. Sadly they’ve all passed snd will be missed tremendously. Such talent may never come along again.
The movie "Saturday Night Fever" with John Travolta is of course a classic. Listen to the other great songs from this album, "Night Fever (my favorite from the album)", "More Than A Woman", and "If I Can't Have You", all written by The BeeGee's.
I was going to suggest the same. So lucky to have been a teenager in the 70s. Real music No auto tune You either could sing or you couldn’t. No where to hide
One of the best soundtracks! If you like dancing - disco from around 1980 you need two albums: Micheal Jackson's 'Thriller' and the soundtrack for 'Saturday Night Fever'. After that you can build up the rest of your collection. Neither of them will ever be outdated. (A tip about a forgotten third, and fourth, album: Noel, 'Is There More To Life Than Dancing?', with 'Dancing Is Dangerous', 1979. Written and produced by Sparks; the brothers Ron and Russell Mael. They made an amazing album, 'No. 1 In Heaven', produced by Giorgio Moroder, just before they took on Noel. A lot of what they learned from Moroder they brought with them to Noel's album.)
"Reaching out" is missing, I think it's the most beautiful song they have written, another ones are "Fanny, be tender with my love" and "Nights on Broadway".
And one thing to keep in mind is that there is NO auto-tune or fancy post-production stuff going on. This is these brothers singing -- as they practiced singing together since they were small children. There's a tremendous amount of talent and practice and love to witness here.
BeeGees one of Gods gifts to humanity!!
Only family could sing together in that way.
The shock value of the young Thundacats when they hear some of these classic songs is always heartwarming!!
My Era of music. ANY song you listen to by The Bee Gees will not disappoint. Love these Gibb Brothers
They day its a small world but its amazing how you can miss so much, including one of the most successful groups in misic history. Welcome to this world, and enjoy.
The BEE gees are awesome
the BeeGees are undoubtedly one of the best groups of all time. No question!
When I hear these songs from the 70's always reminds me of the roller rink.
bee gees too much heaven
"How deep is your love" is one of my favorites
Ich wunder mich immer das so viele Menschen den Song kennen und nicht wissen das es ein Song von den Bee Gees ist ❤❤❤
IMORTALITY WITH CELINE DION & THE BEE GEES OS BEAUTIFUL 😍
My 21 year old daughter is OBSESSED with them!!! And I am too!!! 😂😂😂
The greatest disco song of all time!
"The Bump" "The Double Bump" The Hustle",, All these were Dance Songs, Plus Many More,,of their songs,,, Back in the day,,💖
Keep listening to those BeeGees. The song, "One" you will love, I promise. God bless.
BeeGees forever!
We cant underestimate the power of music!
A good song is when you u smile all the way through.
Love that you appreciate them so much. Way before autotune. Raw talent of 3 brothers who wrote and sang their own songs! Grew up with them. Favorite to this day (and I’m 70!)
One of the most successful British bands of all time.
‘Whether you’re a brother or whether you’re a mother”… I NEVER heard that line.. in 60 years of listening to that song! What? Dammmmmm
This has to be one of the most iconic bass riffs ever. Everyone recognizes it.
Bee Gees wrote major hits....for Diana Ross, Dolly Parton & many others!! Phenomenal!!
Music is stronger than any human's will. These 3 sopranos are sensational.
Over 1000songs BeeGees! Write a lot of soundtracks!
Love watching the younger people getting into the music that we got to hear back in the day when we were young.
They were arguably one of the most successful groups ever.
What can you say, they are the Bee Gees. Love your reaction!
I LOVE THE BEE GEES!!
A masterpiece of a song 👍🏼
The Bee Gees are one of the greatest all time groups, writing all their own songs and other peoples songs too.
Their stuff totally SLAPS!!!!!
This is crazy how many people are shocked by this.. I guess I was born at the perfect time. Born 75, as a black man, my parents hand all their music to listen to, due to my parents. So seeing this I am laughing so much. But its good seeing young folks enjoy this. The Bee Gees have so many great songs.
That smile says it all! The Bee Gees were the greatest ever! Their music touches your heart and soul!! You'll go down the rabbit hole!
The BEE GEES had alot of songs in Saturday night fever.
There is a reason the name Bee Gees is still kicked around. They were just awesome.
I'm 74 years old, this was MY generation's music. Your right, no matter where we were, or what we were doing, we heard this beat, you gotta MOVE!!!! Brings back sooo many memories!

Barry Gibb was blessed by the gods, man. Not only a prolific hit-making songwriter and great singer, but one of the best-looking men who ever walked the planet.
He was yummy!...lol
Ooooh Barry, that was my man right there❤
Personally I was more attracted to Robin but I can def see where you're coming from. I bet that man got all the ladies at the time.
His brothers were less fortunate in the looks department. That's why he was the centerpiece.
I agree,lucky Linda❤️

You just discarded all the electronic music that's been created since the late 60s and early 70s. You are just very ignorant in the matter.
This is the song they use to teach CPR because it has the proper heart BEAT
I envy you! The Bee Gees, Queen and Home Free. So many great performances ahead! (More great artists, too.)
The Bee Gees are legends....so talented :)
The joy on your face awesome
This song was recorded with 100 beats per minute which 100 chest compressions per minute are required in CPR and the song will give you something to go by. Genius.

No way….loved the music and danced away when I wanted….still do!
We had the best music back in the day!!
Disco....I miss that soooo much......!!!!
Welcome to the giant Bee Gees rabbit hole. Their catalog is extensive and impressive.
Your body takes over when you hear this 🎵

I feel like The Bee Gees are the white Earth Wind and Fire. I always listen to both when I’m in a certain mood.
Whooo!!!! Yes!!!! Another great!!! Love that you appreciate it for real!!! They are bangers!! I wore this album out!!!
This beat definitely slaps. & has stood the test of time.
This is back in the day when singers actually had singing talent. Memories of Saturday Night Fever with John Travolta.
to enter the Bee Gees rabbit hole is to enter a wonderous and deep hole. No auto-tune, raw talent, and 50 years of hits. The Brothers Gibb...never to be forgotten.

The one doing the high voice, in the middle, is the only one still alive. There was 4 brothers. All there songs are great. Your reaction was great. You can’t help but move your body when you listen to The Bee Gees. Awesome. 🎼🦋🎵♥️🎶👏👏
The youngest died really young though. I don't think he had anything to do with this song.
Just so no one misunderstands, the 4th brother, Andy, was not a Bee Gee. Brothers Barry, Robin & Maurice started performing in 1955 & took the name BGs/Bee Gee's in 1958 (Andy’s birth year).

I know that. I posted that earlier. He died really young I think.

The disco era was my least favorite. They didn't get to exhibit their exquisite voices.

My generation had the best music 60s 70s and 80s✌🏻
Love the Bee Gees. Their music is timeless. Legends. This is another group that has so much content for you to listen to. Night Fever is one of my most favorites, and How Deep Is Your Love. They also have written many songs for other artists, and sung with other artists, like Lionel Richie
Three brothers doing what they do best. Inducted into the Rock N Roll and Song writers hall of fame. They wrote over 1000 songs, for themselves and others. Check out an early song that they wrote for Otis Redding but he died before he could record it, so they recorded it; Barry was 21 and the twins Robin and Maurice were 18 , the song is "To Love Somebody". This is probably the deepest rabbit hole out there.
No auto tune for those amazing musician's. Love love love the Bee Gees.😎💕💕💕🇿🇦
You're so right about moving whether you want to or not. This song grabs your jive mechanism. I'm oooold and I still get moving in my chair and mouthing lyrics like I'm singing with them. LOVE this song! Great reaction and commentary!
Try their song Too Much Heaven - just absolutely beautiful. Another one you cannot help moving to is Jive Talking. I love watching the younger generation discover this great music.
Oh yes-both songs!
also Love You Inside Out is sick....unconditional love in a song, lol....
My favorite
I also love to watch you younger people listen to our music. They don’t know who they are until they listen. Then they realize they’ve heard their songs! Live it. Thanx for listening to this group especially. Sadly they’ve all passed snd will be missed tremendously. Such talent may never come along again.
The Bee Gees were kings back in the day!!!!
The movie "Saturday Night Fever" with John Travolta is of course a classic. Listen to the other great songs from this album, "Night Fever (my favorite from the album)", "More Than A Woman", and "If I Can't Have You", all written by The BeeGee's.
Great ones! If I can't have you... the best!
I was going to suggest the same. So lucky to have been a teenager in the 70s. Real music No auto tune You either could sing or you couldn’t. No where to hide
One of the best soundtracks! If you like dancing - disco from around 1980 you need two albums: Micheal Jackson's 'Thriller' and the soundtrack for 'Saturday Night Fever'.
After that you can build up the rest of your collection.
Neither of them will ever be outdated.
(A tip about a forgotten third, and fourth, album: Noel, 'Is There More To Life Than Dancing?', with 'Dancing Is Dangerous', 1979. Written and produced by Sparks; the brothers Ron and Russell Mael. They made an amazing album, 'No. 1 In Heaven', produced by Giorgio Moroder, just before they took on Noel. A lot of what they learned from Moroder they brought with them to Noel's album.)
"Reaching out" is missing, I think it's the most beautiful song they have written, another ones are "Fanny, be tender with my love" and "Nights on Broadway".
Shout out from Nordic, Finland; Bee Gees is classic early (non American) kind of Disco and still such a vibe and it works.
YOUR ADORABLE! GREAT SMILE!! YOU GOT JIPPED MUSIC WISE, YOUR WHOLE GENERATION!
Loved your reaction! These guys were crazy talented. Go down this rabbit hole!
Please go down the rabbit hole of the Brothers Gibb
Fantastic reaction! The music from my era! One of my all time favorite groups.
And one thing to keep in mind is that there is NO auto-tune or fancy post-production stuff going on. This is these brothers singing -- as they practiced singing together since they were small children. There's a tremendous amount of talent and practice and love to witness here.
Auto-tune is a crime against humanity!!!
I was born in 1972 so I grew up when music was music 70’s and 80’, not saying today’s music is bad.
Old school songs are the best...NO autotune.
Welcome to The Bee Gees!!!! They are legends!!!!! Great reaction!!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
