They said they got the groove for this song when driving over a bridge on the way to the studio in Florida. The sound of the traffic on the bridge gave them the idea for the beat. That’s why it was originally called Drive Talking.

The title was changed to “Jive Talkin'” after Barry accidentally sang “Ji-Ji Jive Talkin'” while recording. The song remained number 1 for a total of two weeks.
