I wanted to reply to Refiners Fire, but Gumby has already done that better than I would have done
I also was never a great Bee Gees fan, but they were part of our growing up , It hurts to see someone die young , when you feel as if you know them because they have always been around.
Their early work was better for me. A sad day and I feel for all their fans...
Hi Folks; I was never a Disco person, but very much liked the Bee Gee's. Their music always had a catch to it and I need only a few notes to recognize their songs.

Dear lord, I know I've said I don't believe in you, and I've talked about never having seen any evidence that you exist, and all. If I was wrong about that, I apologize. I'm coming to you now, humbled and sincere, with a request... oh lord, please, if you truly are merciful, I beg you to look down on your lost sheep here on planet Earth, and find love in your heart for us, and, oh father, please, please...
...please don't let them start inundating the airwaves with that god-awful Beegees crap again just because one of 'em's died. Have mercy, father. In Jesus' name I ask it. Amen.

How Can You Mend a Broken Heart
I can think of younger days when living for my life
Was everything a man could want to do.
I could never see tomorrow, but I was never told about the sorrow.
And how can you mend a broken heart?
How can you stop the rain from falling down?
How can you stop the sun from shining?
What makes the world go round?
How can you mend a this broken man?
How can a loser ever win?
Please help me mend my broken heart and let me live again.
I can still feel the breeze that rustles through the trees
And misty memories of days gone by
We could never see tomorrow, noone said a word about the sorrow.
And how can you mend a broken heart?
How can you stop the rain from falling down?
How can you stop the sun from shining?
What makes the world go round?
How can you mend this broken man?
How can a loser ever win?
Please help me mend my broken heart and let me live again
I've Gotta Get a Message to You
The preacher talked to me and he smiled,
Said, "Come and walk with me, come and walk one more mile.
Now for once in your life you're alone,
but you ain't got a dime, there's no time for the phone."
I've just got to get a message to you, hold on, hold on.
One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on.
I told him I'm in no hurry,
but if I broke her heart, won't you tell her I'm sorry.
And for once in my life I'm alone,
and I've got to let her know just in time before I go.
I've just go to get a message to you, hold on, hold on.
One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on.
Well I laughed but that didn't hurt,
and it's only her love that keeps me wearing this dirt.
Now I'm crying but deep down inside,
well I did it to him, now it's my turn to die.
I've just got to get a message to you, hold on, hold on.
One more hour and my life will be through, hold on, hold on.

Seems like the family is questioning the treatment he received in the hospital.
Bee Gee brothers demand answersMIAMI BEACH, Florida -- The family of Bee Gee Maurice Gibb, who died on Sunday after abdominal surgery, is questioning the hospital treatment he received prior to his death. The 53-year-old had been critically ill since an operation to remove an intestinal blockage after he collapsed at his Florida home last week. The Mount Sinai Medical Centre said that before his surgery he had "experienced cardiac arrest." Brother Barry Gibb, 55, said the family would fight to discover the truth about Maurice's death. "From the fact that they had to operate on Maurice during the shock of cardiac arrest, is very questionable, and we will pursue every factor, every element, every second of the timeline of the final hours of Maurice's life," Barry Gibb told the BBC. "We will pursue that relentlessly. That will be our quest from now on," he said. A statement released by his family said: "It is with great sadness and sorrow that we regretfully announce the passing of Maurice Gibb. "His love and enthusiasm and energy for life remain an inspiration to all of us. We will all deeply miss him." Gibb's twin brother, Robin, said in a television interview on Friday in Britain that his brother's collapse took everyone by surprise but that Maurice's "vital organs are A-1 and he's recovering." But he had also warned doctors had told the family that the following 48 hours would be crucial. Pete Bassett, Robin Gibb's spokesman, said on Sunday: "It's a huge shock to us all. It's the worst possible news anyone could have expected. There's just complete and utter shock. This is an unbelievable blow." Maurice played bass and keyboard for the group, whose name is short for the Brothers Gibb. The Bee Gees -- Maurice, Robin and their older brother Barry -- have lived in South Florida since the late 1970s. Their younger brother, Andy, who had a successful solo career, died in 1988 at age 30 from a heart ailment. Known for their close harmonies and original sound, the Bee Gees are members of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and their 1977 contributions to the "Saturday Night Fever" album made it one of the best selling movie soundtracks ever. Among their disco hits on that album are "Stayin' Alive," "More Than a Woman" and "How Deep Is Your Love." They also had hits in other genres, including the haunting "New York Mining Disaster 1941" and "I Started a Joke." The group won seven Grammy Awards together. The Bee Gees last album was in 2001, titled "This Is Where I Came In." The Associated Press & Reuters contributed to this report. |

A wonderfully talented group of brothers. I love their music. Sorry to see another one go way before his time. I remember when Andy Gibb went with Victoria Principal. She left him because of his substance abuse problems.
What? Two pages of replies and no jokes about "[Not] Stayin' Alive"? You guys are slipping!
