The Bee Gees Serenaded The Audience With A Breathtaking Acapella Rendition Of “How Deep Is Your Love”

The Bee Gees made an appearance on Des O’Connor’s Tonight Show in 1998 to promote their One Night Only album. The standout moment of their 20-minute segment was their captivating performance of the timeless ballad, How Deep is Your Love?

In the full video of the show, viewers can witness Barry initially preparing to strum his guitar, only to change his mind and suggest an acapella rendition.

Barry took the lead on the first verse, showcasing his impeccable timing and pitch. However, the true magic began when Maurice and Robin’s deeper voices blended harmoniously with Barry’s effortless falsetto. This particular version of the classic ballad shines a light on the Gibbs brothers’ deep bond and extensive experience singing together, making it one of the most charming renditions ever heard.
