Grease was written by Barry Gibb which he could have sang it for the movie, but he decided to give it to Frankie Valli because Valli was his favorite pop singer and felt the movie needed someone from that era to sing the song. Valli had the choice of singing the theme song Grease or appearing in the movie and singing Beauty School Dropout. He made the right choice and the rest is history.

During fall camp getting ready for the morning practice, 5:30 a.m., in the locker room, we had a 300 lb offensive lineman that would play this song every morning. Beaten, tired and feeling down, when he bellowed out “yes” at the start of the song it always got me pumped up and ready for practice.
