I've actually forgotten what you and Agonum were up to when I said that and I'm too tired to go back and look.

Anarchy? Insubordination? Uninhibited frivolity? Who knows?

Don't worry, hope. I was having one of my mad moments.

Since I can't even remember, all is forgiven. :ROFLMAO:

  • Barbra Streisand & Barry Gibb - Guilty (1980)
  • Michael Jackson & Siedah Garrett - I Just Can't Stop Loving You (1987)

The most productive part of the day for me is morning. I feel the best and things are easier to handle. But the most unexpected creative ideas come before I go to bed)))) and sometimes it makes me unable to sleep....
I hope I got it right, interesting question))))))

No. 1 Michael Jackson & Siedah Garrett - I Just Can't Stop Loving You (1987)


I dunno, meh ...
Chris Norman & Suzi Quatro - Stumblin' In (1978)
Barbra Streisand & Barry Gibb - Guilty (1980)

TBH, I never liked the BeeGees.
I think their voices sound too chipmunky
and their singing is too hysterical/dramatic

Just came home to find out one of my perfume bottles spilled. Now my room reeks of roses and pink lilies. Not that I'm complaining about the smell, but now I have less to use for myself. Sigh...

Guilty is a 5 out of 5. And I will tell you, that is a very rare score coming from me!

Chris Norman & Suzi Quatro – Stumblin’ In (1978)
At the moment (courtesy of my dagsform), a solid 3/5.

Michael Jackson & Siedah Garrett – I Just Can’t Stop Loving You (1987)
It’s really hard to rate something you’ve listened to so much. However, it has never been a favourite of mine. The performance is bloody brilliant, though.

You got it!

It’s the same for me, too. Although I struggle to actually be awake during the morning. I’m usually well asleep after not having slept during the night. Not by choice, by the way.

I get your point. I love the Bee Gees 60's stuff. Their harmonies are beautiful, they wrote interesting, unexpected songs. They did great stuff, imo. But I can understand why people don't like them. Are you talking about all of their stuff or just the 80's disco stuff? Bc I can't be doing with the 80's disco stuff at all. In the 60's Robin did a lot of the lead vocals whereas in the 80's it seems as if Barry did a lot more. That could be wrong and, actually, they always shared lead vocals to an extent. But Barry does seem to be more prominent in the 80's and I'm not up with that. I don't hate his voice but I prefer Robin. And there is an hysterical edge to some of the 80's songs, I think.

Nah, I'm with bluemoon. I don't agree with her 100% but I'm on her side. I love Bob Dylan's voice and I think it is beautiful but I totally get why some people cannot stand it. Same with the Bee Gees. I love most of their vocals but I can hear what it is that some people don't like.

I really appreciate the energy in the morning. I usually fall asleep easily if I get up early, usually at 7:07))))
If my routine breaks, I force myself to get up early, even if I haven't slept well. And after a few days, things get better. There is a theory about people's sleep patterns: a lark (gets up early and goes to bed early) and an owl (it is comfortable for him to fall asleep late and wake up late) I know that I am a lark)).

You are very diplomatic. I need to acquire that skill.

The disco stuff is second half of to late seventies. They did release an album in 1981 (Living Eyes), but there wasn’t a lot falsetto or disco there. Later in the decade (1987) they released another album (E.S.P.), but by then it was completely void of falsetto. And between those albums, they wrote and produced for other artists.

oh god, yeah. Having a 'bad brains day today'. Too much death admin and IT stuff and things that I just don't understand (Gary Numan!).

Yes, @bluemoon7 the Bee Gees were all over the disco thing in the 70's. And I did not like it. At all.

Some of the post-disco stuff I've heard I've really liked although I haven't heard tons of it. It's really just the middle, disco-y era that I can't be doing with. But I honestly get why some people wouldn't like their sound. I wouldn't call it an acquired taste and I wouldn't call it Marmite but it is a very specific sound they have and it's not for everyone, I don't think.

I agree, I think you put it well. It’s just that Bluemoon’s comment—“I think their voices sound too chipmunky”—to me, it sounds like she is only familiar with the disco material. And I don’t really blame her if that would be the case, because most people know only of that Bee Gees.

(And besides, Fuzball’s question was in regards to a Barbra Streisand/Barry Gibb song – Bee Gees wasn’t even on the table to begin with!)

Why so specifically at 7:07?

I am a night owl in the sense that i gravitate towards being awake late. But I know that I think better and get things done faster early.
