What is a bees favorite color?

What is Barry Gibb from the bee gees favourite colour


Who was the bee gee that sang in a falsetto voice?

Barry Gibbs was the guy who sang in a falsetto voice! it became their trademark! I love Bee Gees so much! sadly barry's brother Robbin is in coma right now! Hope he recovers from it! :(


How did the bee gees get their name?

It comes from the old English word beo, of Germanic origin. It's related to the Dutch 'bij' and German 'Beie'. That answer couldn't be more wrong. The Bee Gees got their name for the two letters B & G which is what everyone called Barry Gibb (BG) However...not wanting to make it sound like he was the most important of the trio...they made it known that BG stood for "Brothers Gibb" They added the "ee" to the B and the G so it would look like a band name...rather than just the letters BG.


How many of the bee gees are still alive?

Barry Gibb is the only surviving member of the Bee Gees. Maurice and Robin Gibb are dead. [Andy Gibb (also dead) was never a member of the Bee Gees.] Barry Gibb is the oldest of the 4 brothers. Andy was the youngest brother.


How many members of the bee gees are dead?

Maurice is dead, and is survived by his twin brother Robin and their older brother Barry. But they also had a younger brother Andy who sung solo. He died many years ago in a car accident, so 2 of the 4 brothers are now dead. Correction: Sorry to contradict the above statement but Andy Gibb was not killed in an auto accident... his cause of death was myocarditis, (an inflammation of the heart muscle) that was caused by a viral infection.

When was Visitor's by ABBA released on CD?

well nobody is certain about it but it seems that ABBA "the visitors" was the first pop album to be released in CD , december 1981 . some people want to put the bee gees album "living eyes" in that situation but the bee gees were at a low point that time (1981) compared to their "Saturday night fever" success so it seems plausible that it was ABBA's album ,the band had just received a prize for astonishing achievement (Super trouper was a triumph even more than their disco flavored Voulez-vous !)
