Sobre el álbum

El álbum High Civilization, de 1991, presenta a los Bee Gees adentrándose por completo en el sonido del pop adulto y el R&B contemporáneo de principios de los noventa. Con este trabajo el trío continúa la modernización de su sonido, con una producción muy pulida y un uso prominente de sintetizadores digitales, cajas de ritmos y arreglos electrónicos. El disco busca un sonido sofisticado y actual, en sintonía con las tendencias de la época.

El álbum contiene el single "Secret Love", que se convirtió en un éxito notable en Europa, demostrando que su música seguía conectando con el público del continente. "High Civilization" es un trabajo coherente y de una gran calidad de producción. Aunque a veces es criticado por un sonido demasiado anclado en su tiempo, es una prueba más de la increíble capacidad de los hermanos Gibb para adaptarse y crear pop de alta factura en cualquier década.

    Letra

    Cryin' in the streets They run for their lives How can you lead them to heaven They don't realize Children of the night How far can we fall That which we say is forever Ain't no time at all Father and the son Not too young to be old Reach out for each other when The world goes cold Feel so good to be home Are you ready for (CHORUS) My high civilization Are you ready for My high civilization Are you ready for My high civilization Civilization Everything for us to see The ultimate society Keeper of the sword You fight for your rights How can you live for the hour When there's no yesterday Dyin' in the streets Your number your name All that which keeps us together Is bringing us the pain Thunder of the guns Comes the criminal mind Working for the power of The evil eye We are never alone Uncivilized (CHORUS) New York, Paris, Tokyo Vienna to Berlin Baby don't know you L.A., Rome, Afghanistan Cairo to Iran No city can hold you There's no one in Avalon to show you Minutes into seconds are you ready For the end (CHORUS) (FADE)

    Letra

    When do I cry This breakin' heart Just hurts me more When we're apart And there are two of us With our secret love Sleep pretty baby while you wait so long Livin' with a love that's not just make believe Lonely nights, I see your candle glow And in my mind, I trace Together we can take away The time and the space (CHORUS) Baby when you got a secret love Every little touch is not enough Every little moment we're apart is pain to me Maybe we can find some hideaway Everybody knows but who can say Secretly you know I'd follow Anywhere to make you happy Anyway you want me I'll be standing by I don't wanna lose the one I hunger for Naked eyes, they watch us everywhere Nowhere to run, I cry Everything to lose and no alibi (CHORUS) Baby when you got a secret love Nothin' you can do but rise above Secretly you know I'd follow Anywhere to make you happy When do I cry This breakin' heart Just hurts me more When we're apart And there are two of us With our secret love (together we can take away the time and the space) REPEAT CHORUS (FADE)

    Letra

    Though I know it's time to take you home Baby you and I are all alone We should take a moment of our own And look what we've got You could destroy this heart of mine I'm only trying to get by Hiding in the shadows of the night Holding you and knowing the wrong is right Show me some mercy You know what you're doin' is making me A happy man I shield you from the rain I've been slow to get you but I'm working As hard as I can (CHORUS) This time, it's what we believe is true And whether you believe I'm in love with you I gotta be sure that you say what you mean Is it only a dream to a teenage queen And all the years of tears and laughter We could go through Will it be happy ever after For me and you Heaven is a place inside of me Livin' with your heart as company Only you can change the way I feel And make it feel good Where there is love there is no crime I'm only tryin' to get mine Let me be the one to dry your eyes We can be the promise that never dies Light of an angel Blinded by the vision I'm wishin' we could travel on Stay with me baby Any less than an hour You be leavin' me lonely too long This time, it's what we believe is true And whether you believe I'm in love with you I gotta be sure that you say what you mean Is it only a dream to a teenage queen And you define the dream you're after Make it come true Will it be happy ever after Will it be happy ever after For me and you
  5. Party With No Name4:50

    Letra

    Let's get started. Move in for the kill. So sincere. I'm here to bend your will. A man without a face. I give you love you've never known. We can hold each other, sight unseen. Touching on our darkest dream. You can wish for something bad. Lovers' lips you never had. All she wants is your love. All she wants is your love. We're the party with no name. And we go from flame to flame. We've got one claim to fame. We're the party with no name. Make those footsteps to the floor. You can't see us anymore. Ain't no time for the shame for the party with no name. Easy money. Get yourself a job. It's my invitation. Been alone too long. A soul without a space. A party with no name. See, truth is there, but she don't see. Her life is just a mystery. I'd give her more than I could give. I'd even die that she could live. All she wants is your love. All she wants is your love. We're the party with no name. And we go from flame to flame. We've got one claim to fame. We're the party with no name. All she wants is your love. All she wants is your love.

  7. Dimensions5:25

    Letra

    Hindsight, don't make it right She give me trouble enough And she's a ball of light I'm in the tunnel of love With the American dream And I was born too soon A little good luck, never stuck She got me climbing the walls Got me hard as a rock Within a city of sin, she got a city block And she was barkin' at the moon She likes to show So many sides to her And I'd be the one to know (CHORUS) When am I gonna go to your dimension When am I gonna go to where you are When am I gonna go to your dimension Dimensions of each other keep us goin' strong Black knight, take a bite She can double it up And she's a way of life And whether dead or alive She got a fix on me And I was dancin' in the fire White steam, never seen In every muscle and bone She was a love machine And she could wrestle me down And get a taste of me In her web of desire She changed my world How can the body know It's touchin' me or her (CHORUS)
  8. The Only Love5:32

    Letra

    I can relate the story of my life No brighter hope, no stronger emotion And I believed I could die over you How you could ever Break down and never see me through Through my darkest night And as I lie awake One prayer within me burning And there's no price on what you hold till it's gone Then it keeps moving on Where is my heart? You know I will be waiting to be a part of you And never feel the pain How can you say to me that I should go on living? I left the only life I had with you The only love No use in me pretending To be a part of you And you the heart of me How can you say to me that I should go on living? I left the only life I had With, with you With you So we agree to let each other go No long goodbye Just your way and my way And I can stand how you cried to be free High as the wind blows But not enough to bring you home to me And only lonely knows You see my open arms You know my flame is burning But I'm too blind to see the end has begun And it keeps moving on The only love No use in me pretending To be a part of you And you the heart of me How can you say to me that I should go on living? I left the only life I had With you The only love No use in me pretending To be a part of you And you the heart of me How can you say to me that I should go on living? I left the only life I had With you The only love One love that will not die You may be sorry that I built my world around you The only love Is only you and I There will be others who would leave you as I found you The only love One love that will not die
  9. Human Sacrifice5:38

    Letra

    I see she Knowing what I came here for Get a little of your womanifestation If I can pinpoint this feeling When you gonna let it grow We can draw the line on where we Let the fingers go Now I know me Never wanna lose control Making me the subject Of your warm initiation If I can pinpoint this feeling When you gonna let it show You make me nervous but it's now or never Oh Oh You can be my message from above And it's time to say you're sorry We can sanctify our love Oh no And you and I we're written in the wind You can't just go movin' out You can't leave me when I'm movin' in I want to be your human sacrifice I want to be your lover I want to be your human sacrifice I want to be your lover It's you or me Gotta be a kill or cure Maybe undergo a lover's operation Nothing cuts like a knife can You don't wanna hurt me more Look at all that damage We could do together Oh no You can wear me closer to the bone It don't work to make me worry But the demon seed is sown Oh no And you and I we're written in the sky You can't make me hold on Better you shoot my love between the eyes Your eyes on me on this table where I lie And what I see as fact is fiction You won't let me die And I'm bound to be abused I won't let you cut me loose This love is out to get you When the blood begins to flow
  10. True Confessions5:14

    Letra

    I'm not the one in search of friction. I'm not the one to look for fights. When it gets down to me and you I think it over twice. We sing the same song with it all subject to change. There is another place in time, girl. You and I will meet again. I saw the signs I never knew. Didn't have enough on you to follow through? Call it innocent or guilty. Inside you, it's still me. Ooh, whose word you gonna take? Whose heart you gonna break? Not mine. If I believe your true confessions I'm never gonna make it. You know you hurt me for the very last time. I need you, darling, and it tears me apart. And if someone comes between us it's the death of my heart, it's the death of my heart. I think about you and I paint a picture. You wanna love above the law. And you got a taste for adventure. It's what you're living for. We say the same lies. Anyone to crucify. We're the victims of the same sensations. I can be as bad as you. I step aside, you can understand. I won't stand in the way but I will if I can. Not to be your judge and jury. It's still you inside me. Ooh, whose word you gonna take? Whose heart you gonna break? Not mine. If I believe your true confessions I'm never gonna make it. You know you hurt me for the very last time. I need you, darling, and it tears me apart. And if someone comes between us it's the death of my heart, it's the death of my heart. My gun is loaded and I'm ready for war. I come and get you and I kick down the door. There's no way, I can't let you leave. I'm not working for the enemy. Ah. Ooh, whose word you gonna take? Whose heart you gonna break? Not mine....
  11. Evolution5:36

    Letra

    There's a law in what we do We got a quest for something new Everything you witness seems to Let you down If someone gets you from behind I got an open mind And you've been thirsty for the friend you found Close your eyes and make a wish I don't wanna mess with mother nature Knowing that you're mine You said I could see You with another and we all get satisfied (CHORUS) It's a form of evolution It's a kind of movin' on An eternal source of pleasure In being the one When your love is for the giving It's a case of destiny You know we look for the same insane games Got to be commital to be a little deviation So I get all wound up inside I can see your scene unwind You dance together or you dance alone And leave the real world in the air Love it in leather I don't care Everything is legal in the danger zone Close your eyes and make a wish Later we could cater to the animal Knowing that you're mine It's straight in my face You and your lover and the brain is paralyzed (CHORUS) It's a form of evolution It's a kind of movin' on It's a cycle of emotion In being the one In the storm of revolution What is done can be undone You know we look for the same insane games Got to be commital To the subtle variations (CHORUS) It's a form of evolution It's a kind of movin' on It's a cycle of emotion In being the one If your love is for the givin' It's a case of destiny And you can find your source of pleasure In being with me (CHORUS)
