Smile an everlasting smile
A smile could bring you near to me
Don't ever let me find you gone
'Cause that would bring a tear to me
You think that I don't even mean
A singe word I say
It's only words, and words are all I have
To take your heart away
The Bee Gees
Robin is gone, and that does bring a tear to me. He is the second Bee Gee to die, after his twin brother. Now only one remains, Barry. The Bee Gees did indeed take my heart away with their words and their beautiful ballads and moving harmonies. I bought the Bee Gees first album as a teenager and was hooked from then on, continuing to love them through being a bride, a young mom, middle aged, and now as a senior. They continued to make beautiful music for decades. Only death has stopped their genius for songwriting. No more words from Robin. I hope he is listening to beautiful music.
“Blessed are you who give yourselves over to God... ignore what the world worships...
Nothing and no one comes close to you! I start talking about you, telling what
I know, and quickly run out of words.
Neither numbers nor words
account for you.”
Psalm 40:4,5

The Bee Gees made some beautiful music through the years. I first became aware of them with the movie Staying Alive. Although he was not a member of the group I also enjoyed the music of their younger brother Andy who died in the late eighties. Three of the Gibb brothers are now in heaven making beautiful music I'm sure.
They mad a lot of great music! Such talents.
R.I.P. Robin. You made beautiful music.
Best,
Bonnie
It's so true Ginny that everything comes and goes - except God and His Word. I loved the Bee Gees too as a teenager - looking at your pictures brought a wave of memories! :)
This is so fine a tribute...you should add this for the Thursday Theme Song meme linking tomorrow!
And I LOVE your mother's day post below this...especially the planter! That is a true treasure.
I like their music, too.
Those these talented men did not use their God given talent to exalt the LORD with , their songs I for the most part did enjoy....they deposited within me or framed times at hand for my memories today to find a good place to visit through "looking back"....R.I.P. Robin
I like the Bee Gees, although my husband teases me for listening to them.
this is a great tribute to them.
A wonderful tribute to the Bee Gees...I have always loved their music. R.I.P., Robin. Thanks for sharing, Ginny, great post with beautiful memories.
Great post, my friend....
Good words about good words and good sounds, Ginny.
This is a beautiful tribute to Robin Gibb. The Bee Gees made beautiful music for many years. I doubt there will be another group like them. They will be missed.
We will however never forget his music. He will live on for a very long time.
Greetings,

and their music brings back so many good memories for me...
I loved the Bee Gees---and was sad to hear about Robin's death at age 62...
Great tribute, Ginny.
Hugs,
Betsy
I certainly remember listening to their music...Beautiful songs!
Thanks for showing us this wonderful tribute to the Bee Gees.
They did have some beautiful songs. I had one of their albums when I was in high school
I feel bad that two Bee Gee's have died. I have to say that for some reason I wasn't that in to them, but I did enjoy their music. Hopefully they will be making music in Heaven.
Love, sandie
This is really nice Ginny. I've always loved their music!
Love this song, My husband's fav band with ABBA.
That is why my daughter bought the expensive tickets. We would never go otherwise.
Antarctica is a public exhibition centre, they built the igloo for visitors. Can't remember who took the photo, I wish we had taken the whole igloo as well.
I agree. I loved the Bee Gees too!
