"Birdie Told Me" is a song by the Bee Gees, recorded for the album ''Horizontal'' (1967). It was written by Barry, Robin and Maurice Gibb. The song has a duration of 2 minutes and 19 seconds in mono and 2:23 in stereo. "Birdie Told Me" was covered by Dodle Best. ==Recording== When the band entered Chappell Studios to begin the recording in earnest, the first song they recorded was "Birdie Told Me". Barry recalls "'Birdie Told Me' is something I think I brought in, really about love on the rebound". "Obviously the person has lost the one he loves, and she's telling him it's going to be alright. A pretty song."〔(Bee Gees - Horizontal at Album Liner Notes )〕 Robin adds, "It's got a flavour of the late '60s in it, that's the kind of song you would hear from a film of the time. I really love the chorus; it's a very poignant song. The original idea that Barry had for 'Birdie Told Me' came at Chappell Studios, which is the original Chappell Music (office ), but they had a studio upstairs. We used to alternate between there and the IBC Studios in Portland Place, which was just opposite the BBC."〔 The song was recorded four times, initially at Chappell Studios but completed at IBC Studios. The first version was recorded in July 30, the second version was on August 1, the third version was on August 10 and finished at October 28.〔http://www.columbia.edu/~brennan/beegees/67.html〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Birdie Told Me」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
