Barry Gibb: 'I sang to my brother Robin when he was in a coma'

Musician Barry Gibb, of the Bee Gees fame, has revealed that when his brother Robin was in a coma he sang to him

Speaking to BANG Showbiz earlier today at the Nordoff Robbins O2 Silver Clef Awards in London, Barry Gibb explained that he dedicated his song 'End of the Rainbow', which is on his new solo album 'In The Now', to Robin and even sang part of it to him shortly before he died:

"There's a song called 'End of the Rainbow' that I dedicate to Robin, but for all my brothers. It was very difficult, it was very emotional. It's very difficult to sing without filling up, it's one of those, I'm not sure I could sing it live without becoming very emotional."

"I sang a verse of the song to Robin when he was in a coma, about two weeks before he passed and I don't know if he heard it or not. But I sang it anyway, I'm yet to sing it live and the lyrics reflect what I hope are my correct feelings."
