Bee Gees Robin Gibb has passed

[SPOCKED]

Story

Its a sad night at the SPOCKED house with this news. We love the Bee Gees and we'll miss the great voice and talent of Robin Gibb.

saw this come over the wires at work before. Very sad. My dad died of that too.

 

[Borgminister]

I finally died....

Ahh this sucks. I love the Bee Gees, had a dream about them the other night actually. Saturday Night Fever is one of my all time favourite films and a large part of that is due to the soundtrack.

Sad news indeed. I'd heard he'd been ill, but I was feeling optimistic about it until earlier today. I absolutely love the Bee Gees for "How Deep Is Your Love."

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

I love the Bee Gees for the sped-up version of "Stayin' Alive" from Airplane!. Which, IMHO, sounds better than the original.

(Fun fact: In the HHGTTG radio series, the dance scene in the android disco has "Stayin' Alive" - played backwards.)

 

[Mr. Adventure]

Just think, that song was only a couple of years old when Airplane came out.

And only Barry remains.

Rest in peace, Robin.
