[A]nother Bee Gees single appears. It’s from those sessions held in June and July. Kiwi songstress, Dinah Lee, says, "At first the boys had been unsure whether the song suited them, so they offered it to me." She’d been prepared to record it but, after discussions with Nat and Ossie, the Bee Gees release it themselves. The new single is a ballad, paradoxically with a strong dance beat. It prominently features the St. Clair studio piano, a one-time pianola that’s had the roll ripped out. The piano riffs obsessively behind lyrics drenched in alienation, despair, heartbreak and loss, but as the song shifts up through its key changes, it allows Barry Gibb’s vocal to end with a triumphant rallying call.

During this period, the Bee Gees' younger brother Andy followed his older siblings into a music career, and enjoyed considerable success. Produced by Barry, Andy Gibb's first three singles all topped the U.S. charts.
Nat had met the Bee Gees in Brisbane some years earlier. They’d appeared on Teen Beat, a TV show he’d produced. Barry Gibb had been about 13 years old, twins Maurice and Robin about 10 or 11. The Gibb family moved from Brisbane to Sydney in January 1963. From then until April 1966, the Bee Gees issued 10 singles and 1 LP on the Leedon label. Not one had been a hit.
