What a Rush

I thought this was THE saddest song until I heard their "Black Diamonds". The pre-Saturday Night Fever Bee Gees were the masters of tear jerk.

An even sadder Bee Gees song is Sincere Relation from the 1970 Lp Two Years On.

Oh yes, my era of music and they do a fine job. COULD LISTEN TO THIS ALL NIGHT LONG.

This would be THE best answering machine song - or even a ringtone. Hold on ....hold on....

I believed I was going to marry the Gibb with the beard? Barry? I was a preacher's kid and only 15, but I was so in love with him! I still love their music.

Another really sad BeeGees (with Andy Gibb) song is "Don't Throw It All Away Our Love".
"Maybe I don't want to know the reason why, but lately you don't talk to me, and darlin I can't see me in your eyes". Gets me every time!
I also think "Sorry" by John Denver, should have made the list.

One of my all time favorite groups The Bee Gees and one of my very favorite songs.

An even sadder, more soulful Bee Gees song is HOLIDAY (1967). MY FAVORITE!
