The Bird and The Bee | How Deep Is Your Love?

A couple years back the LA duo known as The Bird and the Bee reinterpreted the masters through various Hall and Oates classics.  Through that work they also took the time to rework another classic via The Bee Gees for the Sex and the City 2 soundtrack.  And what you have as a result is a modern day classic courtesy of the song the late Robin Gibb wanted played at his funeral.  Enjoy.
