who wrote how to mend a broken heart
Barry and Robin Gibb wrote the song in August 1970 with  Lonely Days  when the Gibb brothers had reconvened following a period of break-up and alienation. Robin came to my place says Barry, and that afternoon we wrote 'How Can You Mend a Broken Heart' and that obviously was a link to us coming back together.hat performance is notable for drummer Geoff Bridgford's first appearance with the band. Following the release of How Can You Mend a Broken Heart, the song had a Grammy nomination for Best Vocal Performance by a Duo, Group or Chorus among George Harrison 's  My Sweet Lord  and others.
