I know I can't be the only on here that likes the Bee Gees. They're one of my favorite groups ever, so choosing 10 songs is kind of hard but i've narrowed them down to:

1)Too Much Heaven

2)To Love Somebody

3)How Deep Is Your Love

4)How Can You Mend A Broken Heart?

5)Tragedy

6)Emotion

7)New York Mining Disaster 1941

8)Nights On Broadway

9)Lonely Days, Lonely Nights

10)I Started A Joke

when i saw this thread i could only think of one song
staying alive

You Should Be Dancing
Jive Talking
Tragedy
Staying Alive
Nights On Broadway
Night Fever
Love So Right
Fanny
Emotion
Too Much Heaven

where's Cloudbuster??

He's at the loo. He'll be here soon

I'm as big a fan as that Cloudy can be

That's why I could never choose 10 songs

touchy!


well if you are then you should be able to pick a top ten!!

I have everything that's commercially available, solo work and related artists included.

I even have the two Barry/Barbra albums, which has granted me great popularity among the eastern Europe gay community

"Stayin Alive" (1977)
"More Than A Woman" (1977)
"How Deep Is Your Love" (1977)
"Night Fever" (1977)
"You Should Be Dancing" (1976)
"Too Much Heaven" (1979)
"Reaching Out" (1979)
"I'm Satisfied" (1979)
"Lovers" (1976)
"Fanny (Be Tender With My Love)" (1975)


as you can see,I'm partial to their 70s R&B/disco period

I have never understood why so much criticism was thrown at the Bee Gees for their 70s stuff, I think Saturday Night Fever was one of the best albums of the 70s. In fact I only watch the film for the music, especially for How Deep is Your Love

Cloudbuster said:

the 'Saturday Night Fever' soundtrack was finally remastered,but it contains no bonus tracks.

SoulAlive said:

I know.

The upcoming Bee Gees Greatest remaster has some extras, tho.

add these:

"Living Eyes" - totally underrated
"You Win Again" - the one that made me a believer again
"This is Where I Came In" - love the retro sound

Thanks for posting this. I haven't listened to the Bee Gees for ages, and only discovered how good they were when a colleague asked me to convert some vinyl to tape. Anyway here is my list:

Children of the World
(Our Love) Don't Throw It All Away
Spirits (Having Flown)
Fanny (Be Tender With My Love)
How Deep Is Your Love
Love Me
Love You Inside Out
More Than A Woman
You Should Be Dancing
Stayin' Alive

Their songs were great. Sincere without being slushy.

Night Fever
More Than A Woman
Emotion
Too Much Heaven
Love You Inside Out

I'm not sure that the Bee Gees are great album artists, but there is probably only 20 or 25 artists that speak English that can come up with a bigger and better selection of songs from their career.

They were brilliant. And they are slowly over the years starting to be seen for that.

Unfortunately disco became hated when it almost took over radio (for many ignorant reasons) and since they were the biggest thing at the time, they became associated with disco, even though they've always been an unbelievably fantastic R&B band.

And disco, at its best, never sucked.

But there is always a backlash when something gets this popular.

I'm hoping it'll happen to hip hop, but tastes are so divided these days with satellite radio and hand-held music players that I'm not sure if the same forces are at work to lead something else to becoming overplayed.

**I suck!**

Aw man, that's not fair!

'cause I can only come up with 5

(and they're in no particular order)

1. More Than A Woman

2. Love You Inside Out (Leslie Feist did a HOT ASS version couple years back!)

3. Too Much Heaven

4. Emotion (w/ Samantha Sang)

5. Night Fever(the absolute BEST song to do the Hustle/Trans Europe Express to)
