  • "Spirits (Having Flown)" is a song by the Bee Gees which was originally released on the 1979 album Spirits Having Flown. Though not issued as a single in conjunction with the parent album, it was released in the UK to promote the compilation Bee Gees Greatest, which was released in December 1979. Its B-side was a 1975 song "Wind of Change" from the group's Main Course. The song itself is a Caribbean flavored R&B track sung by Barry in natural voice during the verses and joined by Robin and Maurice on the chorus which is sung in falsetto. The count-in (1, 2, 3, 4) heard on the album version was omitted from the single version and on the album Bee Gees Greatest. Flute work for the track was provided by Herbie Mann. The single peaked at No. 16 in the UK, and would be the last Top 40 hit the band had in the UK for almost eight years. Somehow, there was a rare promotional video of the song, presenting about the Bee Gees & Andy Gibb on holiday, probably at Miami Beach. (en)
  • Spirits (Having Flown) is een single van Bee Gees. Het was de laatste single afkomstig van hun studioalbum . Het werd echter uitgegeven ter promotie van hun verzamelalbum Bee Gees Greatest. Het lied werd opgenomen in de Criteria Studios te Miami. In diezelfde geluidsstudio was Chicago bezig met de opnamen van hun album . De blazerssectie van Chicago zou af en toe over wippen, maar niet voor Spirits. Er is wel een fluitist te horen, maar dat is Herbie Mann, een fluitist uit het fusioncircuit. Uiteraard zijn Barry Gibb, Robin Gibb en Maurice Gibb te horen maar daarnaast is ook de vaste toetsenist Blue Weaver duidelijk van de partij. De B-kant Wind of Change dateerde al van 1975; het verscheen op het album en ook als B-kant van Jive Talkin'. (nl)
