Just watched what is probably a pretty old documentary on Sky about the Bee Gees. Really enjoyed looking back on their amazing story, and fantastic music. Lots of fascinating old footage. What great song writers and such harmonies. Sad that three of the brothers died so young.

We watched that last week and really enjoyed it. Their style changed so much over the years but i really liked the early stuff.

I watched this and loved it. Massachusetts was the first single I ever bought. I must admit I shed a few tears when watching it.

I watched the documentary about Saturday Night Fever last night - I never knew that the music was from the BeeGees.

Became a fan when I was still at school and they burst onto the scene with a song that went "Now I've Found That The World is Round" followed that up with some really great songs....disappeared into oblivion. Then reinvented themselves in the '70s with "Saturday Night Fever" a total departure from how they sounded in the late '60s.

Very talented, sadly only Barry is left now.

Not a big BeeGees fan, but I did enjoy the documentary. It reminded me of all sorts of things I'd forgotten

We're watching a Bee Gees concert on Sky Arts (The Bee Gees for One Night Only). Wow. I've always liked them but didn't realise how many great songs they'd written or what a lovely melodic voice Robin had.

Never understood why.

Loved the documentary. I have lots of their music on my phone, though I didn’t realise how many songs they had written. Same with a documentary about Queen.

I just love the Bee Gees music ever since I first heard New York Mining Disaster.
The songs they have written for other artists over the years are also brilliant.

I've always loved the Bee Gees and have many of their CD's. I remember seeing their story on TV a few months back and turning up the volume.
They duetted with many singers including Barbra Streisand and their music was performed as backing to a few films.
My cousin worked for them in his tour managing capacity.
