The Gibb brothers were born on the Isle of Man to English parents in 1946 (Barry, born Barry Alan Crompton Gibb, September 1) and 1949 (fraternal twins Robin and Maurice, born respectively as Robin Hugh Gibb and Maurice (pronounced "Morris") Ernest Gibb, December 22). The family returned to father Hugh Gibb's home town of Chorlton-cum-Hardy, Manchester, England in the early 1950s where the boys began to sing in harmony, debuting in public on one memorable occasion at a local cinema. The boys were going to lip sync to a record, which other children had done at the cinema in previous weeks. However, on the way to the cinema, the record was dropped and broken. As a result, the brothers got on stage and sang themselves.

Black Diamond Lyrics

Where are you ? I love you . where are you ? I love you .
Where are you to keep me warm?
I had a dream of a place far away.
I followed a river where the dead man would play.
And Im leaving in the morning.
And Im leaving in the morning.
And I wont die, so dont cry. Ill be home.
Those big black diamonds that lie there for me.
By the tall white mountains which lie by the sea.
And you a man whos as tall as the sky
Followed a river where thousands have died.
He was leaving in the morning.
He was leaving in the morning.
If I come home and my women has flown.
Those big black diamonds that lie there for me
By the tall white mountains which lie by the sea
Oh oh oh oh oh
Say goodbye to auld lang syne (repeat and fade)
