Robin Gibb's pure voice is just wonderful to listen to today.
And his lyrics were prescient.
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
Till I finally died
Which started the whole world living
Oh, if I'd only seen
That the joke was on me
Oh, if I'd only seen, oh yeah
That the joke was on me, oh no
That the joke was on me, ohh
This live version is very good, and clean in sound, and doesn't have annoying text all over it as many tributes do today.

Here is a video tribute prepared by Barry Gibb (apparently). It is called "Bodding" a childhood nickname for Robin Gibb.
