    Robin Gibb has died!
    Robin Gibb has died (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-18140862) 😞At least he's out of pain and suffering.
    Having had relatives and friends families suffer from this awful near common Cancer.
    I can only wish the peace of mind to his family now that he's out of his pain and their emotional suffering.
    It's hard watching your loved one suffer through pain and the necessary treatment.
    My thoughts and prayers are with the fans and family.
    Robin you were a true star and now an angel of song.

    I can't believe it! I keep thinking it must be some sick joke. I wasn't the biggest fan of the Beegees but I know their songs and quite liked them. It's just that it's Robin Gibb! I knew he was very sick but he's always popping up here and there. Thought he lived forever like Aretha Franklin and Tom Jones.

    Robin Gibb, sticking it to Xfactor and modern pop culture like a boss.





    They are one of my mums favourite bands, so i grew up hearing their songs. They certainly had talent.

    It's very sad that he has passed away, after all that he has been through.

    Thank you Robin for the music, you were an inspiration to many.

    Rest In Peace.

    Very sad news. I started really listening to the Bee Gee's albums about a year ago - fantastic stuff. RIP.

    According to wikipedia he was an "ardent vegan and teetotaller", so it's pretty bad luck that he's died at 62.

    Cancer can affect anyone no matter what. My friend lost her after in law who was healthiest person. One drink at Xmas for toasting celebrations and becme teminal and died early this year. I guess it's all the supposed chemicals and environment we live in and with now a days can't help. Also our diets in some peoples' cases. Hopefully CancerResearch finds the ultimate cure.
