Funny you should ask this question. I have had the Bee Gees in my head all morning. No, they aren't my favorite band. My husband played Stayin' alive for our youngest. She loves it, and has played it about 10 times since yesterday. And oh my, how it is stuck in my head. My husband has been playing a lot of Audioslave lately, they are really growing on me.

I saw this amazing, 3 hour long documentary about Bee Gees. Very interesting story, and I was amazed to see Barry Gibb crying his eyes out when Celine Dion were singing on one of their songs. Well, I sometimes cry when I hear Celine Dion, too, if I can't get someone to turn it off. :p Not so for Barry, he was just touched, because he thought it was so beautiful. I fell a little bit in love with him, then.

I just have to post this, I was just so happy when the DHL-guy brought me this. One of my favorite bands made a pledge to get money for their new video, and I joined. Today I got my "prize", a signed cd and dvd, poster and 2 postcards. I just love being a fan! :)

I love documentaries. yep even one about the Bee Gees! I will have to take a look and see if I can find it. My youngest is already playing them on youtube. So, she'd probably like this. Thanks!

I didn't see it from the beginning, so I have no idea what it was called, sorry. But I checked YouTube right now, and there are a lot of Bee Gees documentaries, one is split up in 12 parts, so that could be it.

Thanks, I'll take a look. :D ( I'd bet the one you found is it though, so I'll look for that one)

Robin appears to be crying in this one (he has some Kleenex and he keeps shaking his head like he is overwhelmed by her singing). They wrote this song for her.

I can't see that video from a German ip-address :( But, it must be the same clip, I doubt they had many different people filming in the studio. In the movie I saw, Barry went over and hugged her, and he could hardly talk from crying. Extremely sweet. Thanks, Neesy!

Prince wrote a song for her called With This Tear. It's on her 'Celine Dion' cd. The only one I have of hers. It's one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard. It's about her niece dying in her arms.....
