There are songs that feel like quiet treasures, the kind that seem to glow softly when they’re shared. Barry Gibb’s “With the Sun in My Eyes” is one of those rare moments. On his Mythology Tour in 2014, he stood under the lights and carried the song with tenderness, almost as if it were a letter being read out loud. It wasn’t a performance built on power it was built on honesty.
His voice moved gently through the melody, full of warmth but touched with the ache of memory. Each lyric rose and fell like sunlight breaking through clouds reminding listeners of how the Bee Gees often balanced beauty, with vulnerability. Barry didn’t just sing the song he lived in it letting each word linger long enough to be felt.

The crowd recognized that softness right away. Some closed their eyes and swayed as though they were holding onto a memory of their own while others leaned forward hanging on to every word. One person whispered “It feels like he’s singing straight to the heart.” That stillness in the room was proof that even the gentlest song can hold incredible power.
That same spirit of truth and tenderness lives inside another timeless piece “How Can You Mend a Broken Heart” a song that has carried its weight through generations. In a special version with Sheryl Crow, Barry brought fresh light to a song already steeped in longing. Where “With the Sun in My Eyes” was quiet and reflective, this track turned sorrow into shared strength.

Sheryls voice wove easily with Barry lifting the song into a duet, that felt both fragile and full of resilience. Together they sang about heartbreak not as something that destroys but as something that proves love once lived deeply. The blend of their voices gave the song, a new color while carrying the message that healing; comes not from forgetting but from remembering with grace.
