i hope it's not too late to react to Bee Gees once again. Barry Gibb is the eldest and he is the last man standing. you might be interested to watch the two interviews of Barry Gibb. 1. Barry Gibb | The last Bee Gee | Sunday Night interview uploaded in 2019 but originaliy aired in 2012. 2. Barry Gibb: The last Bee Gee goes it alone aired in 2014 Thank you George & Patrick.

Happy to be alive... the last year has been stressful and now we are facing shortages of everything. Just stayin' alive!

[@DianaJG8]

The message/history of the song: it's based on the ghettos and "hard areas" the guys saw in New York and how people had to fight to "stay alive". The place they did the video was a studio backlot where they filmed the movie Gone With The Wind (showing Atlanta, Georgia, after the Civil War destruction) and a TV series called Combat about WWII. ** FUN FACT: This song is used to train doctors, nurses, paramedics/EMTs, firefighters, the public the proper tempo/rhythm for CPR for a person to "stay alive". 😊

[@standandeliver8376]

Interesting. Did the band say that themselves? I always assumed that staying (or stayin') alive just meant really living your life and having fun, rather than just existing.

[@TallyDrake]

@@standandeliver8376 To me it means keeping your spirit alive despite the drudgery and problems of everyday life.

[@robertjohnson1681]

This from SongFacts >>> *_"This was one of five songs the Bee Gees wrote specifically for Saturday Night Fever. Like the film, the song is about much more than dancing and having a good time. It deals with struggle and aspiration; making your way in the world even after you've been kicked around. John Travolta's character in the movie is a young man working a dead-end job who feels alienated by his parents. Dancing is his form of expression, and weekends are his time to let loose."_*

[@eviekelpie1]

Barry Gibb said...all the tracks had already been written ages before they were asked to provide music for the soundtrack... they got the tape together and said...here you go!!!

[@AE-xs5ze]

Love to see you guys blown away. I know they've gotcha when you can't keep from singing out loud.

[@rashelewright5452]

I love the BeeGees. I was born at the end of the 70’s but I love 70’s music. You should react to there other song You should be dancing.

[@vinniemoran7362]

I think the message of the song is that no matter how hard it is, even if you're going nowhere in life... somehow, you're staying alive. So yes, it is asking people to stay positive even when life is dull & hard. :)) About the visuals not matching the words - back then we didn't have proper music videos. Well known performers would be asked to make these simple videos for network (national) television. There was no MTV or any cable TV that specialised in slick music videos. They just made these simple, inexpensive videos to promote their songs on general tv.

[@mariaportengen2959]

Great number! I grew up with disco. When I was 15 years old, I went out dancing for the first time, in 1971. I'm glad I grew up in that time. Those were happy days.

[@deborahh2556]

You guys are reacting to this song the way I did back in the 70's. I put my ear up to the speaker to try and hear all the layers of instruments and sounds. Love the Bee Gees my whole life and always will. This song still blows me away.

The Bee Gees are such gifted song writers. Another song of theirs you can’t listen to without moving is “Jive Talkin”. You must check out “Nights on Broadway” too.

It's fun to watch you guys react to the Bee Gees. You should check out some of their videos when they were just not even teenagers yet! And you absolutely need to watch Saturday Night Fever. A hit movie from the 1970s starring a very young John Travolta with a soundtrack with mostly Bee Gee hits. It's great. You'd love it! Keep up the good work!

[@j4r4lly22]

Taken from the soundtrack to Saturday Night Fever. You need to watch that movie - so many great tunes and the dancing and 70's street culture is awesome.

[@dp3396]

This song was written for the 1978 movie Saturday Night Fever, and was the first pop song to use a drum loop. Their drummer had to go home because his mother was dying, so the engineers pieced together a loop. They expected to replace it when the drummer came back, but it sounded so good that they left it in. Later regretted that they hadn’t gotten a patent. As a joke, they credited the drumming to Barnard Lupe - Barnard after a famous drummer and Lupe (loop). Said they got lots of calls from people wanting to know how to get in touch with that drummer. Years later, the heart association put out a video showing how to use the song to help perform cpr. There is an episode of The Office that shows it. Pure coincidence that not only the beat, but the words, make it perfect for cpr.

[@RK-gg4dd]

Also the song wasn't originally written for the Saturday Night Fever movie. The Bee Gees were already working on a new album while in France. They had several songs already written when they received a call from Robert Stigwood. Stigwood wanted songs for a movie he had just purchased the rights for. He sent them the script for the movie. They did not read it. They went and sent a demo of five songs to him. Those songs were: Stayin Alive, More Than A Woman, If I Can't Have You, How Deep Is Your Love and Night Fever. This information comes from their HBO documentary. Which I highly recommend anyone to watch!

[@jennhurl]

I always love your reaction of total amazement. You remind me of a kid on Christmas morning!!

The message was meant to be optimistic. Yes, I get knocked around and beat down but I stay alive. Never give up :)

[@annemaclean6634]

Your story, George, about being in a bank queue and listening/moving to music reminds me of the British film The Full Monty. There's a scene in that where the guys are standing in a queue in the unemployment office and a song Hot Love by Donna Summer comes on over the loud speakers and they gradually start moving to it - it is so funny and an iconic scene in the film!

The lyrics of the song are in reference to the story of the lead character in the movie Saturday Night Fever. Tony Manero is a 19-year-old Italian American from the Bay Ridge neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York. He lives with his parents, grandmother, and younger sister, and works at a dead-end job in a small hardware store. To escape his day-to-day life, Tony goes to 2001 Odyssey, a local disco club, where he is king of the dance floor and receives the admiration and respect he longs for. In the movie the part of Tony is played by actor John Travolta.

[@maryhuhnke8496]

Nice Summary 👌

[@beegeesbuster1]

There is a small fun fact to this song. At the time they were recording it in Miami their drummer had a family emergency and had to go back to UK. So now they were without a drummer. So what to do? They came up with the idea and take the drums from another song from the SNF soundtrack called Night Fever and make a drumloop out of the drum sound from that. That is what you hear on the song. So The Bee Gees infact made the first drumloop that was used in a recording.

[@sagnikpaul233]

On the HBO doc, they talk about how Stayin' Alive is about their time living in NY at that time, it was downtrodden, full of violence, and crime and Barry wrote this song to reflect that feeling of struggling to stay alive. That's why the video is a bunch of abandoned buildings, etc.
