You all have to admit, the late, coke head, Andy Gibb was pretty lame, but he did do one really good song; don't Throw It All Away On Love. A very pretty ballad, real heart felt and soulful. A good song to get your lady or guy hot.

Really affects me, sometimes, that tune. No hatin, you meanies.lol.

That's an Andy Gibb favorite, right there.

on his vh1 behind the music special, there was a song of his that was played at the end that had the lyrics....like an arrow through the heart.....steady and your aim is true...i'm too young to die..... is that the one you're speakin on?

Yes it is, pass the tissue.

Maybe..

Shadow Dancin, Everlasting Love are also great.

I won't go that far..lol

I love me some Andy Gibb, too! Especially "An Everlasting Love"!

Don't Throw It All Away (Our Love) is one of the best Gibb compositions. I even like Babs new rendition of it. Andy wasn't as talented as the other Brothers Gibb, but he could sing and with their support he became a good pop star. He had some good number:

Shadow Dancing
An Everlasting Love
I Just Want to Be Your Everything
(Love Is) Thicker Than Water

I don't know that his albums are worth owning beyond a greatest hits set, but there's no embarrassment in liking his music.

They actually play the whole song on this radio show.

Those are the only two that I have heard and I like them.



There's certainly no shame in it. I was looking for a greatest hits from him last weekend, with no luck. I'm looking for Leif Garrett too for the song "I Was Made For Dancing".

It may be one of those songs that I have heard but would have to hear it again to remember it. That's why I'm going to check out a greatest hits collection.



I'm not surprised. That sorry ass record store up the street from my house never reorders anything. It's like when it runs out...it just runs out. They didn't even have Van Halen's "1984" album in stock and you know how popular that one was. I had to drive across town to get it.

Andy had an incredible voice....

I have this album, along with his other two....

The Gibbs brothers were great writers....

wfmu has amazing downloadable music shows. You should check them out. Real eclectic stuff.

There's no shame in liking Andy Gibb, I love Shadow Dancing and I Just Want to be your Everything

First of all who didn't do coke in the late 70's? It's a very short list. WHy say the dude was lame, do you think that's a way to avoid crticism for liking one of his songs. I guess everyone ain't a bout it muthafucka like me, I'd fucking low ride down the street bassing Wham! Rap and wont give a fuck because I like the song. Well, if I had a radio in my car, or had a car period. . That's beside the point, people shouldn't give a fuck about others opinions on shit like this. I for one love Andy Gibbs voice, not better than George Michael's, but still good, any bitches gotta problem with that. I

When I was a little girl in the 70's I LUUUUUVED Andy Gibb!

I actually like "Shadow Dancing" more, though....probably because I heard that cut first and just thought he was one of the cutest things walking

The first 45 single I ever bought was Andy Gibb's "Shadow Dancing" in the summer of 1978


and in this world of people,there's only you and I
there ain't nothing come between us in the end
ahhh....how can I hold you when you ain't even mine?
only you can see me through...I'll leave it up to you

paligap said:

Damn right! I love that album!

Another great song by Andy Gibb is "Desire",a single from 1980.Features amazing vocal harmonies by his brothers.Who remembers this song?
