Disco! Well, for the record (no pun intended as far as you know), I'd like to state that disco sucks! That set aside, I will also say at least she didn't pick "Disco Duck" by Rick Dees and His Cast of Idiots". A song I remembel all too well when it camer out in 1973 (I was in Turkey).

Hey all you talented, imaginative, musically inclined folks (Luke, you listening--hehe) just to let you know, I'll be doing some coat tail riding this time around!!

Here is the Lyrics :)

Stayin' Alive

Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk,
I'm a woman's man: no time to talk.
Music loud and women warm, I've been kicked around
since I was born.
And now it's all right. It's OK.
And you may look the other way.
We can try to understand
the New York Times' effect on man.

Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother,
you're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin',
and we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive.

Well now, I get low and I get high,
and if I can't get either, I really try.
Got the wings of heaven on my shoes.
I'm a dancin' man and I just can't lose.
You know it's all right. It's OK.
I'll live to see another day.
We can try to understand
the New York Times' effect on man.

Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother,
you're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin',
and we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive.

Life goin' nowhere. Somebody help me.
Somebody help me, yeah.
Life goin' nowhere. Somebody help me.
Somebody help me, yeah. Stayin' alive.

Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk,
I'm a woman's man: no time to talk.
Music loud and women warm,
I've been kicked around since I was born.
And now it's all right. It's OK.
And you may look the other way.
We can try to understand
the New York Times' effect on man.

Whether you're a brother or whether you're a mother,
you're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Feel the city breakin' and everybody shakin',
and we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive.

Life goin' nowhere. Somebody help me.
Somebody help me, yeah.
Life goin' nowhere. Somebody help me, yeah.
I'm stayin' alive.

Well, I can change most any lyrics so they are in the gutter....one of my few "talents". LOL

Although I'm betting that isn't where we want to go with this.......how appropriate that the BGs will be covering a some by the BGs...."Board Guests cover song by Brother's Gibb"...film at 11:00

Maybe Disco Duck isn't sounding all that bad???

Stayin' Alive

Well, you can tell by the way he post,
He is a woman's man: known as Roger Ram to most.
Challenges here and discussions there,
He keeps his cool and his temperment fair

First Verse ... I am trying:)

We met in the hot tub ...It's OK.
You may look the other way.
We can try to break the seal
But how 'bout 'New York Times' effect on Neil.

Whether it's Xenia, Arreal, HiMay or Vykin
We're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Work thru the tension - unity is the mission
and we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive.

On man! It's been ages since I wrote lyrics. Where is that person who used to do BB song parodies on the BB board? Why isn't he here NOW?

I'll have to ponder this one...

THE BAY CITY ROLLERS!!!! I LOVED THEM!!!

I was around 6-8 when the disco thing hit and I remember all of it.

My favorite song from the SNF soundtrack has to be "Jive Talkin'". Love that song!

Back to brainstorming...

I think Moon has a good start. Let's use her suggestion for the 1st Chorus:

Whether it's Xenia, Arreal, HiMay or Vykin
We're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Work thru the tension - unity is the mission
and we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive.

And then her suggestion for the 2nd chorus:

Whether it's Moondance, Luke, Roger or Zebulon
We're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
The rules a breakin'? and everybody shakin',
and we're stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive, stayin' alive.
Ah, ha, ha, ha, stayin' alive.

During the 3rd chorus we need to merge everyone to bring it full circle.

That would leave us with the 3 verses (the verses start with "Well.." in the original song.) And then the bridge (the "life's goin' nowhere..." part). I think the bridge will be the hardest to write.

You know the more I look at this song (the original) the more I realize what how much this song sucks. Sometimes it's just better not to know the words and to just hum them or make them up as you go along...

Xenia LOL... better not to know the words!

Very funny... I just saw a commercial on Tv for Mercedes and they were using Stayin alive as the theme song to their crash test...

Hey Moon, are you going to be around later? We should chat in the living room. Everyone has spilled details about who they are, but we really don't know much about you.

And not to worry, I have no self-serving motives.

I just think it's fair that you have your time in the spotlight. :)

I know, I'll interview you!!!

Will you be around?

I can be around for at least another hour... is that long enough?... just let me know when... I guess I owe you a couple questions to be directed at me:)
Here I thought I was talking too much about myself!
