Special Thanks

by Moderator

We would like to thank everybody who voted for me on the Who's Calling Christian radio show. I feel blown away that I actually won but also because I had a no. 1 somewhere with something, I guess its never too late. I feel really proud that we were able to raise money for DRI in such an entertaining way. On behalf of DRI Linda & I thankyou very much

Hey Barry- I don't think you have hit you peak yet, (ok maybe those black and white pants that lace up the front were a high point). You have much more creativity and art to share with us, follow your bliss and we will follow you there......

Barry and Linda,
Glad to help out DRI in anyway possible! I have a feeling Barry Gibb has a few more number 1s left in him, and even if not, you will still be number 1 in our hearts!

Much congrats!
Lisa Marie

Dear Barry, the one thing i adore about you is your unselfish and truely kind nature. You are so giving on so many levels! I wish you truely knew what you mean to your fans young and old or should i say mature fans :-). Thank you so much for being just you, and thank you for being so involved over many years in the fight to find a cure for diabetes. One of my dreams is to finally make it to a love and hope dinner. I would love to be there personally to show my support. Barry it didnt take a radio station contest for you to be number one somewhere again, your number one everyday in millions of fans hearts! To you and your gracious family for giving up your precious time! We love you mr. #1... "LADIES AND GENTLEMEN,MAY WE GIVE A WARM WELCOME TO BARRY EFFIN` GIBB!!! THE GIBB FAMILY RAWKS!

We're glad to do it, Barry! I am pleased to see that your membership was able to come together and help out for such a great cause. Now, maybe in the future you could do something for the MS Society...? And I hear that in the U.K. it is harder to get MS drugs than here in the U.S. (no cure for this either...)

Keep the music coming-- and I love my new Greatest CD- I had it on a vinyl!

Congratulations, Barry. You are always #1 with us fans!

The DRI is so fortunate to have you and Linda represent them as their international chairmen. Because of your involvement in this contest, they are the receipients of a large donation. Thank you for including us in this worthy endeavor.

Barry, you have to know that if there is a way we can help raise money for a good cause, we will be there to do what we can.
With everything you and Linda do, it is the least we can do!

Thanks you so much for your work for such a worthwhile cause!
Oh and by the way, this is definitely not the only #1 in our books!!!

Barry iam listening to 'The Record' as i send this...Is there anyway of releasing all CD's in HD (High Definition) both 'The Record' and 'This Is Where I Came In' are in 'HD' and sound like hearing everything in Stereo for the first time, i crank the hell out of both CD's...'When a lonely heart breaks, it's the one that forsakes'...From The land Of The Kangaroo

32. Posted on Friday, October 26 at 06:12 PM by Barbara Harris

The Bee Gees as a group, & Maurice, Robin & Barry separately will always be number one. I just paid $80 (Canadian funds) for the Main Course CD. Barry, (& I hope you read this) why don't you consider two of my favourites: Rest Your Love On Me & Come On Over (both songs have steel guitars), as well as Hold Her in Your Hand (by Maurice) for your country CD? These three songs can cross over to country very easily.

33. Posted on Saturday, October 27 at 09:15 AM by Ripley

You're a one in a million Barry, you'll always be a number one for me!

OMG Barry, I just HAD to write to you. This has nothing to do with your post, but the fact that I KNOW you will read this just blows my mind! HA
I have been absolutely mesmerized by you since the age of 9. I'm 40 now........so..... that has been a 31 year relationship that you never knew you had! About 6 months ago, I met an old friend of yours (which totally floored me) .... then I got jealous. HA
If you are ever in Virginia........please feel free to show up on my doorstep. 652 Battery Place, Colonial Heights, VA 23834. If my husband answers the door, please let him out. He knows the deal. "If Barry Gibb shows up at my door, I want a divorce"

Very glad to have been able to help out and ensure that by voting for Barry, the DRI made out as it's a very worthwhile charity that deserves more recognition and support that is currently provided.

Hug & Love,

Congrats! I love your music. I listen to all types of music, but I enjoy yours the best! Rock on! Barry, where can I find "This is Where I Came In? I saw the video for it on YouTube...too cool! That song jams!
All my best to you,
Yvette

Barry you are ALWAYS a #1 as far as I am concerned since 1970! I am truly glad that you won this call-in as I have diabetes, and any research can possibly benefit me too. Bless you and Linda for your support of this cause. A fan always,

As I'm quite "computer illiterate", I've no idea if this message is in the right "box" to reach Mr Gibb.
I'm 56 years old and a "true" BeeGees fan, from way back.
Could someone ask Barry Gibb to re-release KILBURN TOWERS...and, if possible, put it on an album containing "dreamy" album tracks, such as Haunted House, Bodyguard, Rings around the Moon, The Longest Night, Obsessions, One Minute Woman, etc..
I know Barry wont remember me but he, Maurice and Robin graciously autographed some (Gibb) Sheet Music for me when they were being interviewed at Radio Clyde in Glasgow in the early seventies and also autographed a sleeve cover of SIZE in a competition I was lucky to win. Both these documents are treasured mementoes for me. Wish Barry could appear in Glasgow for an old fella like me to meet and shake his hand to say thanks for over 40 years' worth of fantastic music which I play every single day. I keep on coming back for more...

46. Posted on Friday, November 2 at 03:16 AM by Terri

My heart still breaks when I see you and Robin perform and there is that empty space on stage...........what a ride you two still give your fans but, oh God, I miss Mo!!!!!

47. Posted on Sunday, November 4 at 05:13 AM by Marcia St.John

Hi Barry,
This is just so awesome to have a website where I can talk to you. Just wondering if you are planning any concerts in the future? I live in Texas, and would love to see you (and Robin!) whenever you can. Your music is such an inspiration, and I would love to meet you. Also, are there any TV spots in the future ~ would be great to see you all , just anywhere to hear your music!

48. Posted on Monday, November 5 at 03:06 AM by Pam

Hi Barry,

Haven't been on the site in a while. But I like to try to come on as often as I can to get updates. I watched the Clive Anderson Talk Show on YouTube. He was so insulting. Good for you for walking off the stage. Bravo, I give you a standing ovation for that. I adore the Bee Gees and you all have such a special gift. I understand that your songs are like your babies. I write short stories and articles and I feel the same way about my writing.
Hope you are feeling well. Take care and hello to the family, Pam

49. Posted on Monday, November 5 at 03:24 AM by Karen

One of the sexiest things is someone who is so....appealing (I really wanted to say HOT) and is unaware of it!!!! How could you doubt that you would win???? Do you really not know the power you weild????
Congratulations to someone well deserving and for a deserving cause!!!!!

My Hubby Rob wrote this poem when no one in chatroom late at night here.

It's Ten past ten at night here
as I sit in my computer chair
in the first city in the world to see the sun
but I can't talk to anyone
it's early morning in the States
so I cannot talk to all my mates
every last one asleep
not a whisper not a peep
In U.K. it is morning tea
no one wants to talk to me
it's lonely here in Kiwiland
so I think i'll listen to a band
now i'm not one to tell a fib
i'm gonna listen to Barry Gibb
now that's a man of pure style
he's really gone the "xtra Mile"
his quality is to the fore
i just want it "More and More'
i have every album you ever wrote
i know all the words and every note
i have all the vynils and CDS
the books and posters and DVDS
autographed albums framed so neat
and picture Discs you cannot beat
memorabilia everywhere
all i want is a concert here
so please don't leave it too much longer
my need for this growing stronger
it's eight years since i saw you last
and my patience is weakening fast
so for Angela please do your best
If you come to N.Z. I'll be Blessed

Love Jenny&Rob

Special Thanks
