今年五月20日Bee Gees合唱團歌手Robin Gibb(圖／達志影像提供)去世的時候留下了豐富的經典流行音樂，也留下可觀的財產給他的家屬，英國太陽報報導這位歌手的遺產估算有近一億五千萬美元。
Robin Gibb的遺產分屬他的妻子Dwina、兒子Robin John（RJ），和與前妻生的二個小孩Melissa與Spencer，按該報的報導，因為牽涉到不同的事業和房地產投資，律師恐怕要花五年之久去清點這位已故歌手的財產。
Robin Gibb的遺產包含在英格蘭Thame的老家房子值一千五百萬美元，在美國佛羅里達州邁阿密海灘邊的豪宅值三千七百萬美元，還有在倫敦South Kensington區的房子約值一千二百八十萬美元。
早在Robin Gibb去世之前，曾有媒体報導他給前管家Claire Yang 八百萬美元安家費，時間在2008年，他與這位管家有有一個女兒叫Snow。
由Robin Gibb主唱1968年第6名的歌I Started A Joke，是他的招牌歌曲。
I Started A Joke
Bee Gees
I started a joke, which started the whole world crying,
But I didn't see that the joke was on me, oh no.
I started to cry, which started the whole world laughing,
Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me.
I looked at the skies, running my hands over my eyes,
And I fell out of bed, hurting my head from things that I'd said.
Til I finally died, which started the whole world living,
Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was on me.
I looked at the skies, running my hands over my eyes,
And I fell out of bed, hurting my head from things that I'd said.
Til I finally died, which started the whole world living,
Oh, if I'd only seen that the joke was one me.
