Barry Gibb explains why The Bee Gees never recorded a Christmas song

 

Sir Barry Gibb has said he believes modern Christmas songs are a “marketing trick”, citing this as his reason for why The Bee Gees never released their own festive track.

The closest the band came to a Christmas song – other than their “Fan Club Only” seven-inch released during the holidays in 1978 – was “First of May”, which begins: ‘When I was small and Christmas trees were tall.”

However, the song was released in February and addresses themes of regret and nostalgia.

“We've always avoided it. I think it was appropriate maybe 50 years ago,” Gibb told the BBC. “These days I think it's too much of a marketing trick.”

He noted that his late brother Robin’s final studio album was a Christmas record, titled My Favourite Christmas Carols, but added that he wasn’t involved with it.
