About The Song
Ah, the Bee Gees. Those three brothers Gibb – Barry, Robin, and Maurice – brought us a sound that defined an era. From their early pop hits to their disco phenomenon, their music has a way of weaving itself into the fabric of our lives. Today, we turn our attention to a ballad that showcases a different side of the Bee Gees – a side that speaks of enduring love and the bittersweet passage of time. The song is called “Until”.
Released in 1979 on the album “Spirits Having Flown”, “Until” arrived at a turning point for the band. The disco craze was fading, and the Bee Gees were exploring a more mature sound. “Until” reflects that shift. It’s a song that feels introspective, a quiet reflection on a love that has weathered life’s storms.
The introduction itself sets the mood. A gentle piano melody unfolds, joined by warm strings that create a sense of nostalgia. There’s a calmness to the arrangement, a space that allows the lyrics to take center stage.
