Never really liked them all that much (especially the disco era stuff), but the John Lennon soundalike song "Lonely Days, Lonely Nights" was a great song.

Oh, don't forget that she did "I Don't Know How To Love Him" from Jesus Christ Superstar, both on the original recording AND from the movie soundtrack.

My personal favourite is You Win Again. The This is Where I Came In album kicks ass, too

I can't choose just one! The Bee Gees are one of my favorite bands and I tend to have favorite songs for each of their many eras. I'm also a much bigger fan of Robin's voice over Barry's, so I tend to prefer songs where he either gets to sing lead or has a sizable vocal contribution over ones where he does not!

For the 60's/early 70's, I'd say "Gotta Get a Message to You", "Run To Me" and "My World".

70's/SNF/Disco would be "Jive Talkin'", "Fanny (Be Tender With My Love)", "Children of the World" and "Love Me" (you haven't experienced Robin Gibb vocals until you've heard this one!).

80's, I've always loved "One" so freaking much, and the video!

90's/2000 era, my favorite Bee Gees song of all time is "For Whom the Bell Tolls" off their Size Isn't Everything album, random as can be I know, but again, Robin's vocals! Fabulous! Also the songs "Alone" (the song that got me into the band when I was in high school) and "I Will" from Still Waters.

Jive Talkin was always my fave. The Saturday Night Fever Soundtrack is amazing.

I only know one Bee Gee's song but I'm pretty sure if I heard more this one would still be my fav!!!

"Stayin Alive"
