I first remember hearing this song in the fall of 1977, and I've loved it ever since. Andy Gibb back then is definitely one of the hottest men I've ever seen. Anyone else a fan of his? Oh Everlasting Love is another fave.:nod:

Oh yes, he was a beautiful man and I love his songs. It is such a shame his happy image was nothing like the way he was in his personal life.

David. Andy Gibb was my first concert, ever. I was maybe, 10 years old, and I went with my best friend and her parents. We had front row seats(!) and we handed him a bouquet of roses. He thanked us, and I touched his foot. Oh and also, we stuffed our training bras that night in hopes of Andy noticing us. :woohoo:

DO you guys think that Victoria Principal deserves alot of heat for what happened to Andy and how he went downhill like he did?

According to Victoria Principal she tried to help him with his problems, but ultimately they got too big for her to handle and she left him. She said that he was a great love of her life and she hated leaving him, but he was so out of control she pretty much had no choice.

Such a shame because, like his broters, he had talent.
As an aside, the Bee Gees are one of the largest selling groups ever.

I love OUR LOVE (don't throw it all away). and the Bee Gess version with Andy taped during the ONE NIGHT ONLY show is PERFECT
I don't blame on Victoria. The Bee Gees documentary explained everything. The show business is cruel and if you are not prepared to control drugs or any excess, you are lost

In another note, and someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe he's the ONLY artist or band ever to have his first 3 released singles all go to #1.

I loved his music first on the radio, then when I saw what he looked like-WOW:shocked: Such a beautiful man. I really loved "Love is Thicker Than Water"-even bought the sheet music. I also have an Andy Gibb beach towel in excellent condition that I got around 1977 or '78:p . Broke my heart when he died so young. Broke my heart even more to hear of his sad life. Unlike most other teen idols of that era, he had actual talent and wrote his own songs. Still miss him-he was one of my very first "music-related obsessions".

Nice to see another Andy Gibb fan:wavey: A few years ago I went to put some flowers at his gravesite while visiting Los Angeles. He was very talented and never realized it:(

No. I think she really loved him but could not deal with his drug problem. He needed to help himself and he couldn't. Just sad.

No. I think she really loved him but could not deal with his drug problem. He needed to help himself and he couldn't. Just sad.It's the age old syndrome of too much, too soon with his 3 #1's. Couple that with always feeling like he's in the shadow of his brothers, and I'm sure that contributed to his problems.

That is hilarious! Must have been the same tour I saw him on. At Six Flags. :p I remember bringing my HUGE Polaroid "Handle" camera (remember those??) and I took some pics. If I ever get around to finding and scanning them, I'll post 'em! I remember him wearing a red shirt and very tight, white pants.

He is laid to rest at Forest Lawn-Hollywood Hills and he has a wall vault with a single plaque:angel:
I had lost my mom:angel: a few months prior to visiting LA and for some reason just spending time and leaving flowers at Andy's gravesite made me realize that grieving wasted alot of my time and energy and it made me see life in a very different way:)
Many famous people are buried there. Lucille Ball, The Nelson family, Liberace, Bette Davis and the cemetary is a beautiful one and you will want to just walk around for awhile.

I was wondering why no one was commenting on my brush with fame. :o
Of course I remember those cameras- they were awesome! :laugh:
