The entire night was painful. The induction was unprofessional on Barry and Robin’s part. Barry fiddling with the mic, like he’s a noob and waving to his family like he’s Miss. America. And Rob talking about about perennial grass. Sheesh!
Then onto Jimmy Fallon, who’s such a celebrity whore, or as whowa as they say in the Sopranos, particularly Ralphie, but I’ll digress. I taped this but I don’t think I’ve watched it since. I=80m not overly sensitive, but my heart broke for Rob d
Isn’t this the same outing where Rob says, “I wait for the gaps”, or was that Leno? Was this the same night when LaToya Jackson gave Barry a message that Michael had written on his mirror? No, I=99m not making this up— hmmm, maybe I am.

Subject: Re: [Words] 11s
I agree, it is so hard for a group to rank any sort of song catalogue,
especially one as varied and long as our boys and it is so subjective.
I can only say that I do not agree at all with Roxborough's ranking of
tiwici last but that was the album that made me fall in love with them
so there is a bit of sentimentality. I also love Robin's voice so while
I appreciate a lot of Barry songs, the albums which have more Robin
songs are the ones I am more drawn to.
I will say, however, that I think most Bee Gee fans (not all) will say
that the first 4 albums are special and most Robin fans especially will
adore Living Eyes (another favourite of mine). I also think, not a
surprise, that most people will rank the wilderness years's albums not
highly and that Main Course will be up there. Spirits will depend on
how much you like (or can stand) falsetto (and Barry) from beginning to
end. I also think most people will rank Size highly in the after fever
era albums. Roxborough obviously likes Barry so his rankings reflect
that. I believe that most people would rank High Civ as a low point (to
put it mildly).
For what it is worth, I really like most of the first four albums's
songs. I like almost all of Main Course and Living Eyes (I think most
would agree that wildflower was Mo's high point) and really like most of
tiwici and Size. I do like the fever songs but I honestly think they
are very hard to judge as they were so successful that it is hard to
separate that part out from the actual music. Yasmine
