@AlamoDame7 5 месяцев назад

The Bee Gees have said they didn't write a dance song per se. The y wrote about the "mean streets of 70's NYC" and the struggle of some people in the lower socio-economic classes to just survive the day-to-day challenges they face. "Life's going nowhere/ Somebody Help me!" and "Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother, You're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.// See the city breaking and everybody's shakin'/ THey're stayin' alive, stayin' alive!" For Tony Manero, the ceiling is set low -- He's carrying a can of paint because he has a low paying dead-end job as a go-fer for a paint store. So Saturday nights spent at a local disco is THE high point of his sorry life.

Robin Gibb explained the meaning of this song, saying, "The subject matter of 'Stayin' Alive' is actually quite a serious one; It's about survival in the streets of New York, and the lyrics actually say that". Barry Gibb also added, "Everybody struggles against the world, fighting all the bullshit and things that can drag you down. And it really is a victory just to survive." This song was featured in the film "Saturday Night Fever" (1977) which represented the disco era, so the song became tightly bound with disco, though the Bee Gees had been popular as a vocal harmony group prior to the film, and they disliked the fact that everybody began to label them as a disco singers. Robin Gibb said in a 1989 interview with Q magazine, "We were not disco. People who emulated us were disco. This was one of five songs the Bee Gees wrote specifically for the "Saturday Night Fever" film. Robert Stigwood, who produced the film, got the idea from a New York Magazine article about discomania and the Brooklyn club scene. The line in the song "We can try to understand the New York Times' effect on man" is a reference to that. The soundtrack, this song belong to, was a huge success: it won the Grammy Award for Album of the Year and became the best-selling album ever until it was toppled down by Michael Jackson's "Thriller" (1982). It still remained the best-selling soundtrack of all time until the soundtrack to "The Bodyguard" (1992) overtook it.

Off-topic, I was researching the JFK assassination & in the index, it said the Mafia bootlegged 10 million plus “Saturday Night Fever” LPs. RSO was putting out a million LPs a week & couldn't keep up with demand. Officially, “Thriller” might be the biggest-selling LP, but unofficially “Saturday Night Fever” holds the top spot! Plus, the bootleg records the Bee Gees never got the credit.

Studio 54. They've had hits since the '60s. Barry (the eldest) usually sang the falsetto, but his brothers (Robin and Maurice, twins) could also sing falsetto. Their last single was released in 2001, 2 years before Maurice died. Robin died in 2012. They had a younger brother Andy who had his own career. Andy died in 1988, check his songs too. The songs for SNF were not written for the movie. The songs were written first and then added to the movie later. The brothers were born in England, moved to Australia as children then back to England. There are hundreds of Bee Gee songs out there, many written for other artists. Check out more. Beginning in the mid '60s continuing to the early 2000s. Disco was just a few years in their vast career.

In my life of 60 years, I have been so lucky to witness some of the greatest singers and song writers of all time. The very best have had an effect on world culture, The Beatles, Elton John and The Bee Gees. The Bee Gees not only have decades of their own hits, writing the worlds disco song book in the 70s, but writing classic songs for Dolly and Kenny and Barbra Streisand to name a few. I think it's an easy call to make, the majority of the planet has danced and sung to a Bee Gees song.

The Bee Gees had a lot of great songs, but I actually believe that "How Can You Mend a Broken Heart" was a bigger hit than "Staying Alive". Such a shame we lost both twins so early and of course their younger brother Andy Gibb. All three of the younger brothers died of strange illnesses. Only the eldest brother Barry, is still living. How it must pain him to have seen all three of his younger siblings pass.

The Bee Gees were born in the Isle of Man in the UK and then moved to Manchester, England, before their parents immigrated the family to Australia. They began their recording careers there, but they knew they wouldn't get real fame unless they went back to England. So they did and got management in Stigwood, who was the partner of the Beatles manager, same office. And they started making hits. From the mid 60s until Maurice died in 2003 the Bee Gees had hits for themselves and wrote and produced hits for other artists. Robin passed in 2012, leaving Barry as the oldest and last of the Brothers Gibb left. And he had a number one album called Greenfields a couple years back. Saturday Night Fever had multiple choreographers. The Bee Gees had a script given to them but they didn't read it, they were told it was a movie about a guy who blows his money in dance clubs on the weekends and enters a dance competition. Their manager was the movie's producer and he called them for music while they were editing a live album and working on material for their next album. Barry says that they never really danced but people still associate them with the dancing of the movie. This is NOT the official video, the movie is not in the official video. They are talking about the chaos of New York city in the 70s, there was lots of crime, times were tough, and the lyrics have nothing to do with the movie.

All those dance moves that you associate with the '70s were popularized by this movie. They were dancing like this on Soul Train and in some clubs, but this movie is why the dance moves are so iconic. You have to remember that this was before MTV and RU-vid, so there weren't a whole lot of places for things to become "trendy". I was personally a little too young for disco, but I do remember a lot of "Disco Sucks" shirts worn by rockers upset that disco was taking over the few radio stations that used to play rock. I did help my older brother's band setup for a gig in a local place with a lighted dance floor like the one in the movie.

The movie depicts a great deal of desperation. All of the characters are seeking more than what they currently have. Something bigger and perhaps more important. They are all desperate to get out of the limitations of the circumstances of the lives they were born into. Dancing is symbolic of personal expression and freedom and at least for a while lifts the characters out of the real or perceived boundries of their current situations. At least that is how I experienced the film.

This is an R-rated movie for a reason and some scenes are tough to watch. Without giving too much away, you are on the right track. A good portion of the movie is about a young man played by John Travolta, feeling trapped in his neighborhood and the people In it, he saw things he didn’t like & wanted to get out and start a new. There’s a sequel to the movie, saying a fever called staying alive where you see that same character years later in his new life.

The Bee Gees had been well established long before the 70s. Disco came along in the 70s and in keeping up with the times, they changed their sound some and even got bigger with that genre.

Robin recalls, "The subject matter of 'Stayin' Alive' is actually quite a serious one; It's about survival in the streets of New York, and the lyrics actually say that". Barry Gibb also recalls, "People crying out for help. Desperate songs. Those are the ones that become giants. The minute you capture that on record, it's gold. 'Stayin' Alive' is the epitome of that. Everybody struggles against the world, fighting all the bullshit and things that can drag you down. And it really is a victory just to survive. But when you climb back on top and win bigger than ever before, well that's something everybody reacts to everybody".

You're totally right--this was one of the defining songs of the disco era. It made a big star out of Travolta in his first starring role, and cemented the Bee Gees as megastars. The BGs were originally a very sweet folk band, with great writing and singing. They wrote To Love Somebody for Otis Redding, a rising soul star who died way to young, and when he died before he could record it, and had a big soul hit. As the disco era arrived, Barry Gibb discovered his power falsetto in his harmonies on Nights On Broadway, and the rest was history. The Bee Gees were just as stellar at disco as they were at soul, folk, and pop. Regarding "I'm going nowhere, somebody help me, somebody help me yeah" Travolta's character is king of the clubs, but realizes that's a dead end, and yearns for success. So the Bee Gees really wrote the song for the movie, and changed it--The original title was Saturday Night, but after hearing the Bee Gee's soundtrack song Fever Night, changed it to Saturday Night Fever. If you look at the movie name in the opening sequence, "Fever" is added to the original "Saturday Night" logo. The more you know... Thanks Britt, love your reactions.

The dance moves were done by a choreographer for the movie - we all went nuts over them. Also, there were actual CLASSES to teach us how to do them lol, teens (and adults) dedicated many many hours to learn and adapt them to their own styles. NOTE: I totally cracked up when you thought the choreography was from existing dancing. They all sang falsetto harmonising, even their younger brother (who was a soloist in his own right). The 20 odd years prior to Saturday Night Fever, they would falsetto occasionally.

The music for ‘Saturday Night Fever’ was written and recorded before the movie was made. The Bee Gees had recorded the songs for their next album, when they were approached by Robert Stigwood to write same music for a new film which will star the ‘kid from Welcome Back Cotter’, John Travolta. The Bee Gees gave Stigwood about ten songs to listen to, and Stigwood immediately said he was going to use the songs for the movie, and the movie script was modified and built around the songs.

Maybe they’re not played much on the radio anymore, but they gre steeped in every day life. So, when reactors say they’ve never heard of this song or one that was just as popular, I’ve learned to give them the benefit of the doubt, but I always expect them to recognize the song once it starts playing, just like you did here, lol. Glad you enjoyed it, you had me grinning from ear to ear. 😅 As others have said, the Bee Gees had a career before the disco era took over & they have some wonderful songs from the 60s that you should check out when you get the chance.

He does just that in the sequel “Stayin Alive” Saturday Night Fever is a very good movie but it also has some very rough derogatory language. It definitely earned its R rating. The soundtrack includes other Bee Gee hits “Night Fever”, “You Should Be Dancing”, “More Than A Woman” and “How Deep Is Your Love “. Stayin Alive on the other hand is a very tame PG movie. It was written and directed by Sylvester Stallone, (I’m still trying to figure out how he got involved)LOL. He leaves the disco with aspirations of Broadway.

Almost every song they wrote on it became a hit single as well. They also have a music video for this song that is all them.

Where to start. I'm sure you read all of the comments and have learned a lot. Briefly, the lead singer and the oldest Barry Gibb is the only one of the 4 Gibb Brothers that are still with us. The other 2 Bee Gees were Twins Robin and Maurice. A 4th Brother, Andy was the youngest, was a Solo Singer, and died first at 30 from a Heart Condition that I believe was brought on by Drug use. Some of his Hits included "I Just Want To Be Your Everything", "Love Is Thicker Than Water", and "Shadow Dancing". There is a Video on RU-vid where they bring younger Brother Andy on stage to join them in singing "You Should Be Dancing". I highly recommend it. Robin sang lead in some of the Bee Gees earlier songs like "Words", "I started a Joke" "I've Got to get a Message to you" and "Massachussetts". When Saturday Night Fever came out, Barry was featured more and by then sang mainly in that high Falsetto more often than not. They had so many hits. 9 No. 1 Hits, and 15 Top 10 Hits to be exact. Some of my Favorites include: "Tragedy", "Stayin' Alive", "You Should be Dancing", "To Love Somebody", "How Deep is Your Love","Jive Talkin'", "How Can You Mend A Broken Heart", "More Than A Woman", "Night Fever", and "Nights on Broadway". The Movie Saturday Night Fever had a Sequel "Staying Alive", but wasn't as good as usually happens with sequels. Barry Gibb also wrote the title song to the movie "Grease" and the Bee Gees sang it as well as did Frankie Valli for the movie. A good You Tube video to watch is The Bee Gees, One Night Only Live From Las Vegas 1997. Great Concert featuring all of their hits. I was born in 1959 in NY and was 18 when Saturday Night Fever came out. Great Movie. Great Summer. Great Dancing in the Discos. Never made it to Studio 54 though. Other great Disco Artists of the time were Donna Summer, KC and the Sunshine Band, Gloria Gaynor, The Trammps, Chic, Sister Sledge, Kool and The Gang, and Abba to some extent. Damn, I want to go back in time to the best time period ever for Music 1964-1989. Here's one of Andy Gibb's 3 No. 1 Hits: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-VkNeoTcGwrc.htmlsi=dkytTYw9CqjfByvs One Night Only Concert 1997: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_NKVXSXZf8E.htmlsi=qtrnpYTSzrR9rdhR Bee Gees Documentary: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZGGNYl_hwpI.htmlsi=klnJtf0ewtKaPBoJ Bee Gees and Andy: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-MKtAsW0P0iY.htmlsi=9EDCwMc2UlU50ghZ

Great guitar hooks are worth a million dollars. That "somebody help me yeahhhhhh" is my favorite part. One of the Gibb brothers wrote Islands in the Stream - which Kenny (PDC member) and Auntie Dollie took to great heights. Studio 54. The movie is what happens when you write a script based on an album. But it was the 70s, so it was fine! Also, I think there may be parallels with 8 Mile.

One thing you have to remember about The Bee Gees music from the film is that most of them were not written for the film. After their Children Of the World album from 1976, which included their number 1 single You Should Be Dancing (Later also included in the movie) they were in a chateau in france to record their follow up album. When their manager called them up and said he needed songs for a movie project they said, that there were no time to write a whole album but they just finished some songs and he could listen to them and see if they could be used. So by coincidence they wrote songs that for some reason fitted the film perferctly. The Bee Gees wrote five number 1's for this movie. You Should Be Dancing, How Deep Is your Love, Night Fever, Stayin Alive and If I can't Have You, the latter sung by Yvonne Ellimann but The Bee Gees also recorded it. Another song on the album which by many is considered the best of them all is More Than A Woman which on the album has both The Bee Gees and Tavares version on it. The Bee Gees version is just a stunningly beautiful love song.
