Watched the Documentary “Bee Gees:How can you mend a broken heart” as posted before by @MaVolta

Have always been a fan and really enjoyed it. What

a trip down memory lane. They had a lot of tough

times, like all of us.

I suppose this could be an announcement of sorts. But really, it’s a cool meme that I ran across elsewhere, and thought it would be fun to share.

Now showing on HBO Max:

Bee Gees: How Can You Mend A Broken Heart

This is a movie documentary. I watched it last night and it was very well done. They had a lot of ups and downs. I didn’t realize how many songs, many of them big hits, that they wrote for other artists. It is sad that Barry Gibb is the only surviving brother. He lives in Miami and still writes music and performs occasionally.

In later years I discovered they wrote many

successful songs for other artists. Islands

in the stream is just one. I saw an interview

on tv awhile back with Barry. He’s crushed

with the loss of his brothers. Heavy burden

to be the last remaining sibling. (That’s the

position my Dad is in at 91) I will definitely

have to watch. God bless The Bee Gees 🎼💜

Saw that on the news. Looked her up out of curiosity. Wow. Her songwriting credits along with Mann were diverse and many. Here’s just a sampling:

Blame it on the Bossa Nova, Edie Gorme

Don’t know much, Ronstadt&Neville

He’s sure the boy l love, Crystals

Here you come again, Dolly Parton

Hungry, Kicks, Paul Revere&the Raiders

I just can’t help believin’, BJ Thomas

The list goes on! She also wrote the theme

song for Christmas Vacation, the best Christmas

movie EVER. May she rest in peace 💜😢

Cynthia Weil has died at age 82. She and her husband Barry Mann wrote many songs that became hits in the early 60s. Their biggest hit was the Righteous Brothers' "You've Lost That Loving Feeling".

She was so much more than a rock icon, she was a remarkable woman who decided to live life on her own terms. RIP 🖤

I went to his concert in Detroit last July with my sisters. He said it was the first time in Detroit while he was in his 70s. I also saw him 30 years ago with my husband in 1993.
