R.I.T.: "Alone"
Today's
R.I.T. is the Bee Gees 1997 single, "Alone," off their Still Waters
album. The song went to #1 in Hong Kong, #2 in New Zealand, #5 in the
U.K., #6 in Germany, #7 in Australia, #20 in Canada and #28 in the U.S.
If you listen carefully, you'll hear the bagpipe in the song. It
originally was a 12-string guitar but while experimenting on the demo...
the bagpipe clicked. When recording, they almost changed the
instrument but Robin Gibb was firmly against it. Robin is currently
battling liver cancer. The song was their last Top 40 hit in the U.S.
