The tree Gees : How much i love you with Lyrics







(lyrics and music Alex Sammarini)
Here in that place of the heart
where some fears live from the start
I hear things left unsaid
creatures of the pain
we see the storm within our house
universes that collide
why I made you cry again
when I wish I could say
  
how much I love you
how much I care about you
how much I love you
but this could be our last goodbye
 
kiss the flames and feel the cold
it's the strangest kind of love
angry again, words in vain
when wish we could say
 
how much I love you
how much I care about you
how much I love you
but this could be our last goodbye
 
I can't hide from this cruel desire
cause it's a feeling that can keep me alive
until we'll take our lives
to change them inside
and open the hearts, close the doors to doubts
 
and if tomorrow I could say goodbye
you know that could be something else in my mind
something else to say like
 
how much I love you
how much I care about you
how much I love you
but this could be our last goodbye

a big thank you to Alex Sammarini for sharing the lyrics

Bee Gees : Personalities:

Personalities:
Barry Gibb: "I can take life seriously and as a joke, because I believe that the moment we're born, we're dying, and there's no use going through it looking miserable! Don't let yourself be dragged down by your own moods; just enjoy what you've got." (1968)Maurice Gibb: "Barry's blast-offs don't bother me, purely because half of what he says doesn't really mean anything. What I mean is that what he says is true, but he exaggerates it." (Disc and Music Echo, 1969) Barry Gibb: "I'm very much a family person. I just love the feeling a close family gives you and I wouldn't change it for anything. I've never been into parties, premieres or night-clubbing. I much prefer staying at home with the wife and kids, watching TV or reading a book. I'm Mr Boring, not a party-goer at all." (1998)Robin Gibb: "I think I'm more of a thinker. I'm less trivial about things than probably I should be, but I do have a great sense of humor ... maybe grumpy with a great sense of humor." (Reuters, 2001)
Maurice Gibb: "I am more or less in the middle. I've always been between Barry and Robin. But I am always the decider. It's just been our life that I always end up being the man in the middle. So they call me the engine. They call me all sorts of stuff. Barry and Robin have these different types of egos sometimes they come out and they stop. And I've got to cut myself out here. I don't want to be like them. So being down to earth is probably more important than anything else. And they're like that. They're just great guys. They're just guys like you and me. We sit and we chat, it's the same thing." (In Conversation, 2001)Robin Gibb: "He[Maurice] was a very outgoing person, very gregarious, very extrovert, a great laugh, a great wit and very generous, tremendously generous. I know these are nice things to say about people, but he really was very generous, he helped a lot of people, he was always the champion of the underdog, people were going through bad times he would help them, so he really was a good man." (GMTV, 2003) Maurice Gibb: "Everybody has two training thoughts. It's either fear or love. Nothing in between. It's always the one or the other. I love to live in love today. I don't live in the negative I don't think negative. I don't pursue anything that is negative. I don't even ask questions that are negative. I just go for what I enjoy. And love to do what I to do. And if I am loving it then it's incredible. That you can do something that you love as you work or your hobby whatever. To have that blessing." (In Conversation, 2001)Maurice Gibb: "Barry is a very compassionate person, a very loving person, very protective and that shows in his writing as well - his compassion.  Sometimes he can be a little extrovert but more than anything, he totally believes in what he is doing, totally believes in the song, totally believes in the show.  Totally believes in whatever he is doing.  If he can't do it right, he doesn't want to do it." (This is where I came in, 2001) [Contributed by Melba Beggs]
Maurice Gibb: "I think maturity is setting in, but I'm still the gayest one. I don't mean gay as in homosexual - I mean going out socially." (1979)Robin Gibb: "Barry is very sensitive and shy, but very, very sweet with it, very passive." (Reuters, 2001)Barry Gibb: "My idea of pleasure would be sitting in front of TV. I enjoy quiz shows like the Match Game." (Teen Bag Magazine, 1977)Barry Gibb "I have a huge ego and a huge inferiority complex at the same time." (The Mirror, 1998)

Bee Gees about Songwriting

Songwriting:
Barry Gibb: "Firstly, I think we give the public melodies. And secondly, we don't attempt to preach at people. There are so many groups which try to change the world. We, I think, are simply a pop group which writes all its own songs. We write songs about people and situations; we tell stories in our songs, but we don't give sermons." (1968)Maurice Gibb: "I do less singing, of course. I only come in on high harmonies. I'm more of the musician, playing the piano, bass, mellotron or organ on records, which saves money on hiring musicians, for one thing. It's the same when it comes to writing. I write the music, because I cannot really write lyrics. But I can write chords like Robin's never heard of. So I provide the music for them to write the lyrics to. It's the same as on stage -when we write we complement each other." (1968)Robin Gibb: "Titles can inspire a song. 'My Lover's Prayer' and 'I Surrender' were titles first. We've always done that. Way back when we used to write songs like 'Holiday.' We'd say, 'Let's get a name.' We could write a song about anything. And somebody said, 'Holiday.' And we wrote a song called 'Holiday.' That's how we've always done our music." (Still Waters Press Kit, 1997)Maurice Gibb: "It's something that we've been gifted with, and we've just nurtured all the years. It's something that happens, and we all get into the same 'zone.' It's the only word I can use to describe it. That it clicks. That's why if one of us is a little off that night, it's like, 'I don't feel too good tonight.' We don't write. Because we need that input. We need to be joined like a chain. If there's a broken link, we can't do it right." (Still Waters Press it, 1997)
Barry Gibb: "My strengths have always been ideas and construction and lyric form. I started when I was about 8 or 9 years old, then Maurice and Robin sort of jumped on board when they became the same age. I'm about three years older. Then we all started writing together. I'd say Maurice is very creative in the area of keyboards and coming up with the magic chord when you're looking for one, or general ambiance of a song, atmosphere. If I describe to Maurice the atmosphere that I want, he will give it to me, keyboard-wise. So there's a lot of bouncing around. Robin is very good lyrically. Robin's a very good judge. In other words, I'm the persdon who will throw an awful lot of stuff and Robin will be like an antenna and he will say, 'I like that but I don't like this and I really love this.' He becomes the sounding board." (Performing Songwriter, 1998)Barry Gibb: "We never completely do a song just to please ourselves. We bring everybody we can into the studio, even the receptionist, so that we can get their opinions. We put about thirty percent of what we consider to be our art into our records and about seventy percent of it is us writing for the public. You've got to include both, and that's how we do it. And we don't dwell too much on deep stories, because today people want to hear songs about love. Each song in the Top Twenty is about love. Every album in the Top Ten is based on love." (Rolling Stone, 1978)Maurice Gibb: "We usually go in and say I feel crazy today, we'll do something. Yes, let's go back. It's just the two of us to start with and then one of them will join us. I'll call Robin, I'll call Barry up: 'Listen I've got this great idea, got to come down, listen I need your input.' And everybody, if each brother says something that's not quite right, there's a reason why he's saying it. So the other two always listen. What is it about it that you want to keep? What is it that's making you argumentative or creative? What is it? And then we'll explore that area totally. If I have something: 'No we shouldn't go there, we should be here.' There's a reason why I am saying it. And each of us now over the years respected each other's opinion." (In Conversation, 2001)Barry Gibb: "What songwriting's always been to me is basically like a flash. I have a flash of an idea or a flash of a chorus, or a flash of a song before it's actually constructed. That hasn't changed, it's continued right through my life. I'll get up in the middle of the night and put something on a dictaphone and go back to sleep." (Performing Songwriter, 1998)
Maurice Gibb: "If you can write a good song that last for years. I mean that is a great blessing." (In Conversation, 2001)Maurice Gibb: "When we get together and write it’s not like three individuals, it’s like one person in the room." (Mojo, 2001)Barry Gibb: "Theres is an instinctive information vault that's indigenous to songwriters, a little box you can go to and all of your songs are in there. An imaginary barrel - that's what I always used to call it." (Performing Songwriter, 1998)Maurice Gibb: "Most of the songs we've written that have been successful have been written quickly." (Still Waters Press Kit, 1997)
Maurice Gibb: "We're lucky to have been blessed with being able to make music: anybody can write a song, but whether it's nay good or not is another matter. We've always loved writing songs and music and hopefully this will continue." (OK On Air, 2001)Maurice Gibb: "I'm not really that fluent in lyrics. Barry and Robin are more in that area. I'm more into arranging them, trying to paint the picture." (Still Waters Press Kit, 1997)Maurice Gibb: "We always write our songs that we love and record what we love and we hope that everybody else would love what we love. We don't make records or cds or anything like that just to please the public. We always write the songs that we love to write and perform and record." (In Conversation, 2001)

 
Robin Gibb: "The style of writing songs doesn't change at all, really. We have a cassette player in the middle of a table, and we sit around with the guitars and keyboards and shoot out ideas. I don't think you can do it any other way, really. Melody first, lyrics second." (Still Waters Press Kit, 1997)
