Barry Gibb, the sole remaining member of the Bee Gees, is paying tribute to his brother Robin Gibb with a moving video he posted on YouTube.
Simply titled "Bodding," which, according to the UK's Daily Mirror, was Robin's nickname, the video features home-movie footage of the brothers Gibb as children, as well as behind-the-scenes clips from throughout their career. The brothers are seen on tour buses, in dressing rooms, at rehearsals and with fans. The video tribute is set to the Bee Gees' song "Heart Like Mine."
Robin Gibb dies at 62
Bee Gees singer Robin Gibb, who with brothers Barry and Maurice helped define the disco era with smash hits such as "Stayin' Alive" and "Jive Talkin'," has died at the age of 62 after a long fight with cancer, Reuters reported.
The singer had colon and liver cancer and, despite brief improvements in his health in recent months, passed away on Sunday evening.
Neil Portnow, chief executive of Grammy organization the Recording Academy said the six-time winner of the industry's highest award "had an indelible impact on music."
"His distinctive vibrato voice was part of the trio's signature harmony," Portnow said in a statement. “[Fans] will continue to sing and dance to his music that will be 'Stayin' Alive' for many generations to come."
