Robin Gibb of the Bee Gees dead at 62

 

http://youtu.be/v1Yy7ipENM8

We've lost some great artists so far in 2012. It's really sad that we had to lose another one such as Robin Gibb. You will be greatly missed.

Robin Gibb, one of three brothers who made up the disco group the Bee Gees behind "Saturday Night Fever" and other now-iconic sounds from the 1970s, died on Sunday, according to a statement on his website.

 

He was 62.

 

Gibb "passed away today following his long battle with cancer and intestinal surgery," said the statement, which was attributed to his family. He died in England at

a.m. (
a.m. ET), according to a post on his official Twitter feed.

News of his death set off a torrent of reaction in social media. Musician Bryan Adams, for instance, lamented "another great singer dying too young" on Twitter, while fellow British band Duran Duran and current pop sensation Bruno Mars were among many who posted their condolences.

"The Bee Gees were/are the gold standard when it comes to pop/r&b melody, harmony and vocal arrangement. Massive loss," wrote prolific pop songwriter Claude Kelly on his Twitter feed.

Diagnosed with colon and liver cancer, Gibb had been in a coma as he battled pneumonia earlier this spring, representative Doug Wright said.

Doctors believe that Gibb had a secondary tumor, Wright said April 14, confirming a news account in the UK newspaper The Sun. Gibb had emergency surgery in 2010 for a blocked bowel and then had more surgery for a twisted bowel, Wright confirmed.

The only surviving member of the three Bee Gees is brother Barry, 65.

Robin's twin brother, Maurice, died in 2003 from a twisted bowel. And younger brother Andy Gibb -- who was not part of the group -- died at 30 from a heart infection.

Robin Gibb was born in 1949 on Isle of Man off the British coast, and the Gibb boys grew up in Manchester. The family later moved to Redcliffe, Australia, where their group performed on television as the B.G.'s -- a moniker they later altered to the Bee Gees. Their father, Hughie, was a drummer and big-band leader.

The family returned to England in the 1960s, and they began to emerge on an international scale. Through the end of that decade and into the next, they crafted melodies that utilized their unique voices to gain acclaim thanks to songs such as "I Started a Joke," "To Love Somebody" and "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart."

By the mid-1970s, they transitioned to develop more dance-oriented hits such as "Jive Talkin' " and "Nights on Broadway."

Yet for all these earlier successes, the Bee Gees skyrocketed to new heights with the 1977 release of "Saturday Night Fever," a movie starring John Travolta that was built around the group's falsetto voices and disco-friendly songs.

In the latter part of the 1970s, the Bee Gees "dominated dance floors and airwaves. With their matching white suits, soaring high harmonies and polished, radio-friendly records, they remain one of the essential touchstones to that ultra-commercial era," the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame says on its website.

"Saturday Night Fever" and the group's 1979 album "Spirits Having Flown" yielded six No. 1 hits, "making the Bee Gees the only group in pop history to write, produce and record that many consecutive chart-topping singles," according to the Hall of Fame.

While often more in the background, Robin Gibb was the lead singer on several of the Bee Gees' top tunes including "I Started a Joke" and "I've Gotta Get a Message to You." He also recorded several solo albums during his career.

Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997, the Bee Gees sold more than 200 million albums, and their soundtrack album to "Saturday Night Fever" was the top-selling album until Michael Jackson's "Thriller" claimed that distinction in the 1980s.

In a 2008 interview with Music Week, Robin Gibb shared one of his all-important rules for songwriting: "always keep a tape running," in order to capture a moment of brilliance and inspiration.

"You never know in a three-hour writing session when you are going to come up with something and then if you'll remember it completely," he said. "All the ideas, everything, will be on tape and then you can always refer back at any time.

"Melodies will be born for the first time during writing and unless you have it on tape you haven't got any way of remembering them. That is a cardinal rule."

He also spoke of how he found it "good to have deadlines and pressure."

"We certainly had a deadline with 'Fever' to write all those songs. I think, in one week, we wrote 'How Deep Is Your Love,' 'Night Fever,' 'Stayin' Alive,' 'If I Can't Have You' and the rest. Having a deadline sharpens you up, it gets you out of bed and it stops you going to bed, too," Gibb said.

 

Gibb is survived by his wife, Dwina; his daughter, Melissa, and sons Spencer and Robin-John.

Прекрасна музика има в тая тема. Все неща които харесвам от малък. Ето нещо от което настръхвам:

 

 

Много ми допада и стария Al Bano:

 

 

Винаги съм се опитвал да обясня на младите момчета които хващат китарите, че всеки с малко повече усилие може да стане техничар, но малко стават музиканти........Едно китарно соло ще го чуя, ще ми хареса и толкова, то трябва да бъде допълнение към красивата песен. А такива песни остават завинаги.

Едно изпълнение на Глен Милър от времето, когато все още магнетофонът е бил в бъдещето. Всичко се е записвало на грамофонни плочи. А сега младите не знаят друго освен китайски MP - тройки...

Какво повече да коментирам - слушайте изпълнението и вниквайте в музиката... Защото това Е музика!

Bad Company (Paul Rogers) in live concert

Filmed at the Seminole Hard Rock Live, Holliwood, Florida

at 08-August-2008

Okay - so after singing his lungs out for an hour and 20 minutes, THEN Paul Rodgers pulls out a blistering version of "Good Lovin' Gone Bad?"

Is there a 25-year-old singer today who could pull that off . . . let alone a guy nearing 60?

Well done, Paul!!

Well deep down in Lousiana close to New Orleans

Way back up in the woods neath the evergreens

There stood an old cabin made of earth and wood

Where lived a country boy named Johnny B Goode

He never ever learned to read or write so well

But he could play a guitar just like a ringin' a bell

Go go go Johnny go go go Johnny go go

Go Johnny go go go Johnny go go Johnny B. Goode

 

He used to carry his guitar in a gunny sack

He sit beneath the tree by the railroad track

The engineer would see him sittin' in the shade

Strummin' through the rhythm that the drivers made

The people passin' by they would stop and say

Oh my how that little country boy can play

Go go go Johnny go go...

 

Well now his mama told him someday you gonna be a man

You will be the leader of a country band

The people gonna come from miles around

To hear you play your music when the sun goes down

Maybe someday your name will be at lights sayin' Johnny B. Goode shakin' tonight

Go go go Johnny go go...

Bee Gees - Melody fair

http://youtu.be/h-6kKCX2q1I

Who is the girl with the crying face looking at millions of signs?

She knows that life is a running race,

Her face shouldn't show any sides.

 

Melody Fair won't you comb your hair? You can be beautiful too.

Melody Fair , remember you're only a woman .

Melody Fair, remember you're only a girl. Ah...

 

Who is the girl at the window pane, watching the rain falling down?

Melody, life isn't like the rain ; its just like a merry go round.

 

Melody Fair won't you comb your hair? You can be beautiful too.

Melody Fair, remember you're only a woman.

Melody Fair, remember you're only a girl. Ah...

 

Who is the girl with the crying face, looking at millions of signs?

She knows that life is a running race.

Her face shouldn't show any lines.

 

Melody Fair won't you comb your hair? You can be beautiful too.

Melody Fair , remember you're only a woman.

Melody Fair, remember you're only a girl. Ah ....

Popocatepetl-Twist (mit Silvio Francesco) Songtext:

Das ist der Popocatepetl-Twist

Bei dem Pepito alle Mädchen küsst

Und seinen alten Muli ganz vergisst

Den alten Muli vor dem Tor

 

Das ist der Popocatepetl-Twist

Bei dem Pepito Hahn im Korbe ist

Wenn er den alten Muli auch vergisst

Der alte Muli hat Humor

 

I I A, so schreit der Muli

Bleib noch da, so schreit der Muli

I I A, ich hab ja soviel Zeit

 

Das ist der Popocatepetl-Twist

Der für Pepito wie Tequila ist

So dass er alles auf der Welt vergisst

Und auch den Muli vor dem Tor

Den alten Muli vorm Tor

 

I I A, so schreit der Muli

Bleib noch da, so schreit der Muli

I I A, ich hab ja soviel Zeit

 

Das ist der Popocatepetl-Twist

Der für Pepito wie Tequila ist

So dass er alles auf der Welt vergisst

Und auch den Muli vor dem Tor

Den alten Muli

Ja, den alten Muli

Den alten Muli vorm Tor

TERRY JACKS - IF YOU GO AWAY
 
Songwriters: JACQUES BREL, ROD MCKUEN

 

If you go away on this summer day
Then you might as well take the sun away
All the birds that flew in the summer sky
When our love was new and our hearts were high
When the day was young, and the night was long
And the moon stood still for the nightbird's song
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away

But if you stay, I'll make you a day
Like no day has been or will be again
We'll sail the sun, we'll ride on the rain
We'll talk to the trees and worship the wind
Then if you go, I'll understand
Leave me just enough love to fill up my hand
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away

If you go away, as I know you will
You must tell the world to stop turning 'til
You return again, if you ever do
For what good is love without loving you?
Can I tell you now, as you turn to go
I'll be dying slowly 'til the next hello?
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away

But if you stay, I'll make you a night
Like no night has been or will be again
I'll sail on your smile, I'll ride on your touch
I'll talk to your eyes that I love so much
But if you go, go! I won't cry
Though the good is gone from the word goodbye
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away

If you go away, as I know you must
There'll be nothing left in the world to trust
Just an empty room, full of empty space
Like the empty look I see on your face
I'd have been the shadow of your shadow
If I thought it might have kept me by your side
If you go away, if you go away, if you go away
 
Jacques Brel - Ne Me Quitte Pas
 

Ne me quitte pas
Il faut oublier
Tout peut s'oublier
Qui s'enfuit déjà
Oublier le temps
Des malentendus
Et le temps perdu
A savoir comment
Oublier ces heures
Qui tuaient parfois
A coups de pourquoi
Le cœur du bonheur
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas

Moi je t'offrirai
Des perles de pluie
Venues de pays
Où il ne pleut pas
Je creuserai la terre
Jusqu'après ma mort
Pour couvrir ton corps
D'or et de lumière
Je ferai un domaine
Où l'amour sera roi
Où l'amour sera loi
Où tu seras reine
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas

Ne me quitte pas
Je t'inventerai
Des mots insensés
Que tu comprendras
Je te parlerai
De ces amants-là
Qui ont vu deux fois
Leurs cœurs s'embraser
Je te raconterai
L'histoire de ce roi
Mort de n'avoir pas
Pu te rencontrer
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas

On a vu souvent
Rejaillir le feu
D'un ancien volcan
Qu'on croyait trop vieux
Il est paraît-il
Des terres brûlées
Donnant plus de blé
Qu'un meilleur avril
Et quand vient le soir
Pour qu'un ciel flamboie
Le rouge et le noir
Ne s'épousent-ils pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas

Ne me quitte pas
Je ne vais plus pleurer
Je ne vais plus parler
Je me cacherai là
A te regarder
Danser et sourire
Et à t'écouter
Chanter et puis rire
Laisse-moi devenir
L'ombre de ton ombre
L'ombre de ta main
L'ombre de ton chien
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas
Ne me quitte pas.

:godbless: Ей, истински ценител си! Чудесно е да видиш с вкус подбрани на едно място Cream, Bee Gees, Scott McKenzie, Kinks, Moody Blues, Aphrodite's Child, Fleetwood Mac, Rolling Stones... (от последното ми посещение насам), а 'As Tears Go By' ми е и сред любимите. А на Terry Jаcks - разкошна... Ценна и светла е темата, на мен - особено симпатична, предвид малко по-олдскуул наклона ми. Дано повече посетители има. Видях и няколко непознати имена. За съжаление, с времето музиката изгубва дълбочина и плътност, заприличвайки все повече на едномерна халтурка; май вече не е това, което трябваше да бъде, а покрай нея - и хомосапиенс. Както бе рекла моя позната: "Колкото по-назад във времето отиваме, толкова по-качествена става музиката". И поздравявам така, а като послание към по-младите и от мен, бих подчертал: "Listen, learn, read on".
