The Bee Gees were one of the most extraordinarily successful musical acts of all time. But while their music has become much-loved all around the world, there's a lot that people don't understand about this hit-making group. Here are some false things people believe about the Bee Gees.

The Bee Gees are one of the bigger acts to ever emerge from Australia. Immensely popular around the world during the mid-20th century, they easily measure up against the other hit Australian acts of the era, such as Olivia Newton-John and Rick Springfield. But they were also huge overseas, having scored nine number one hits in the United States, for example, and another five chart-toppers in the United Kingdom — not far from the band's own hometown.

But how can the Bee Gees be from Australia and the British Isles? Well, it's because the band known as the Bee Gees only formed in Australia after the Gibb brothers moved there as children. Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb - and yes, that third brother, the one who’s name looks like Maurice - it’s actually pronounced “Morris” - anyway, they were all born in the late 1940s in Douglas, the capital of the Isle of Man, a small island off of Great Britain. While not part of the United Kingdom, the Isle of Man's residents are nonetheless British citizens. In 1958, the Gibbs all moved to Sydney, Australia, and shortly thereafter, the three oldest children in the family formed their own singing group.
