How deep is your love
Bee Gees
I know your eyes in the morning sun
I feel you touch me in the pouring rain
And the moment that you wander far from me
I wanna feel you in my arms again
And you come to me on a summer breeze
Keep me warm in your love and then softly leave
And its me you need to show
Chorus:
How deep is your love
I really need to learn
cause were living in a world of fools
Breaking us down
When they all should let us be
We belong to you and me
I believe in you
You know the door to my very soul
Youre the light in my deepest darkest hour
Youre my saviour when I fall
And you may not think
I care for you
When you know down inside
That I really do
And its me you need to show
Chorus, Repeat and fade
'Right Here Waiting' was the second single from Repeat Offender,
after 'Satisfied'. In an era of power ballads, "Right Here Waiting"
distinguished itself by its understatement; the track was arranged by
Marx with Jeffery (C.J.) Vanston to feature none of the heavy drums and
synth popular at the time, with Marx's vocal accompanied only by guitar
(by Bruce Gaitsch) and keyboards (by Vanston). It is one of Marx's most
frequently covered compositions.
"How Deep Is Your Love" is a song recorded by the Bee Gees in 1977.
Originally intended for Yvonne Elliman, it was ultimately used as part
of the soundtrack to the film Saturday Night Fever.
In 1983, The Bee Gees were sued by a Chicago songwriter, Ronald Selle,
who claimed that the Gibb brothers stole melodic material from one of
his songs, "Let It End," and used it in "How Deep Is Your Love."
At first, The Bee Gees lost the case; one juror said that a factor in
the jury's decision was the Gibbs' failure to introduce expert testimony
rebutting the plaintiff's expert testimony that it was "impossible" for
the two songs to have been written independently. However, the verdict
was overturned a few months later.
Bee Gees
The Brothers Gibb (nicknamed) "Bee Gees" - were a singing trio of
brothers - Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb, born on the Isle of Man to
English parents.
The group was successful for most of its forty years of recording
music, but the trio had two distinct periods of exceptional success: as
a harmonic "soft rock" act in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and as the
foremost stars of the disco music era in the late 1970s.
The group sang three-part tight harmonies that were instantly
recognizable; brother Robin's clear vibrato lead was a hallmark of their
earlier hits, while Barry's R&B falsetto became a signature sound during
the disco years.
The three brothers co-wrote most of their own hits, as well as
writing and producing several major hits for other artists. Following
Maurice's sudden death on 12 January 2003, Barry and Robin Gibb ended
the group after forty-five years of activity. |
