HIDDEN ERROR: Usage of "imagesize" is not recognized
Barry Alan Crompton Gibb, CBE (born 1 September 1946) is a British singer, songwriter and record producer who rose to worldwide fame as a co-founder of the group Bee Gees, one of the most commercially successful and critically acclaimed groups in the history of popular music. With his brothers, Robin and Maurice Gibb, he formed a songwriting partnership beginning in 1966.
Born on the Isle of Man, he was raised in Manchester where he became involved in the skiffle craze, forming his first band, the Rattlesnakes, which evolved into the Bee Gees in 1960 when they moved to Redcliffe, Queensland, Australia. They returned to England where they achieved worldwide fame. He was also known for his high-pitched falsetto singing voice. Gibb shares the record with John Lennon and Paul McCartney for consecutive Billboard Hot 100 number ones as a writer with six. Guinness World Records lists Gibb as the second most successful songwriter in history behind Sir Paul McCartney.

Recording
Vocalist/guitarist Wil Martin mentioned "we just played around town and recorded demos at like friends houses and studios and we only did that one time with one song which actually spawned all the label interest. And it's obvious recording in someone's basement to a multi million-dollar studio because you need the space and some of the technology to be able to pick up the various things and instruments."
Song Meanings
"A lot of the songs are about relationships or about having a bad day, where nothing seems to go right, or where you just dwell on the negative." - Wil Martin
Track listing
All songs written by Guy Couturier, Scott Kohler and William Martin except where noted.
Letting Go (novel)
Letting Go (1962) is the first full-length novel written by Philip Roth and is set in the 1950s.
Plot summary
Gabe Wallach is a graduate student in literature at the University of Iowa and an ardent admirer of Henry James. Fearing that the intellectual demands of a life in literature might leave him cloistered, Gabe seeks solace in what he thinks of as "the world of feeling". Following the death of his mother at the opening of the novel, Gabe befriends his fellow graduate student Paul Herz.
The novel Letting Go is divided into seven (7) sections:
1. "Debts and Sorrows"
Having served in the Korean War after college, Gabe Wallach is finishing his military service in Oklahoma when he receives a letter his mother wrote to him from her death bed. After reading the letter Wallach places it in The Portrait of a Lady by Henry James. The narrative then skips forward to a year later when Wallach is working on a graduate degree in literature at the University of Iowa. Wallach lends his copy of The Portrait of a Lady to a fellow graduate student, Paul Herz. Later Wallach realizes that he left the letter from his mother in the pages of the book and in his attempt to retrieve the book he meets Paul's wife, Libby. Gabe learns from Libby that Paul is teaching classes at another school and realizes how poor the Herz's are. He drives Libby to where Paul's car has broken down on a trip from this second school and witnesses the first of many arguments between Paul and Libby. Libby also reveals to Gabe that she read the letter from his mother and this is the beginning of the several instances where they begin to imagine the life of the other and believe that they understand it completely based on very little actual evidence.

Broken Bottles
by: Barry GibbI give it up I can't play it if you don't mean it.
You want your lovin on a night time basis.
We don't belong. We don't stand together
Always put your love on the real thing
Always put your love on the real thing
I never wandered
I know my way around
And if you walk away I will not hold you down.
There will be nothing between you and I
I can live without your love,
I can say goodbye
Broken bottles don't mend
I've had enough, you've got me running and I'm all broke up.
My tears will end, there goes the last one now
Ahh ahh ahh ahh
Ohhh
You made my life complete
Baby watch out for the game you're playin
Oh baby got to be sweet, always risk your love on the real thing.
Always risk your love on the real thing.
Where ever I go,
Everything I ever say,
I will be looking back every single step of the way
There will be nothing my love will not break
I battled for your love, I see everything.
Broken bottles don't mend
I've had enough, you've got me running and I'm all broke up.
My tears will end, there goes the last one now
Ahh ahhh
I never wandered
I know my way around
And if you walk away I will not hold you down.
There will be nothing between you and I
Can live without your love,
I can say goodbye
Broken bottles don't mend
I've had enough, you've got me running and I'm all broke up.
My tears will end, there goes the last one now.
