I love all of their own music and all of the hit songs they have written for other artists.
The Bee Gees' Hall of Fame citation says "Only Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Michael Jackson, Garth Brooks and Paul McCartney have outsold the Bee Gees".
So here's the news:
Robin Gibb is in a coma.
After a long battle with various kinds of cancer he has now has pneumonia.
I hope that he pulls through, but sadly, it doesnt look like it at this time.
IMAGINE God's choir these days:
The three Gibb brother's (Andy, Maurice and Robin) together again, plus Whitney Houston, Amy Winehouse and the list goes on and on and on....
