    This was a theme song for one of my buddies and I, when we were on ski lift chairs, and afterwards in the clubs, back in the day.

    We were having a great time, but we must have been annoying, truth be told.

    The BeeGee's had how many #1 songs in the 70's?

    I think they might be in the top 10 all time of the disco era.

    Edit: and the answer is 8. They had 8 chart toppers in the 70's.

    • How Deep is Your Love” This song spent four weeks at number one. ...
    • “Night Fever” ...
    • “Stayin' Alive” ...
    • “How Can You Mend a Broken Heart” ...
    • “Jive Talkin'” ...
    • “Too Much Heaven” ...
    • “You Should be Dancing” ...
    • “Love You Inside Out”
    And damned if that doesn't include



    Caveat emptor if you click on the link. You'll be hearing it all weekend.
