I'm 59, and learned the meaning of a 'Crush' at thirteen with this song. My neighbors daughter gave me this song in a 45 rpm for my birthday. She was eleven... I was into older girls though...you just can't win... G. Giles Band 'Love Stinks'🦨

I like the song, but why the double denial in the main chorus? It should be "I want nobody" or "I don't want anybody". English is my second language but I still can't make sense of why they wrote the lyrics that way. It doesn't sound like proper English to me, as I learned you don't have double negatives.
@Thesimarchitect. It’s called ‘Poetic License’ and it means you don’t have to follow the grammar rules or any other rules when it comes to creativity. I don’t want nobody, I can’t see nobody, BeeGees must like their double negatives 😁. Great songs and songwriters though.
The songs are nice but my ears hurt a bit, as a non native speaker, each time I see things like that, or when people say "I was" when they should say "I were" because they're clearly not using simple past etc. It might sound a bit less weird if you're born into the language, I guess? 🥴 @@tess5747
At 52 now, my fondest memories are as a kid growing up in the 70”s. Lived in a great neighborhood with great friends to play with listening to great music like this on the radio. Ahhh, the good ole days. 😌
It’s hard to listen to this song, it brings tears to my eyes every time. How I long for those days in the 1970s, when I was a little girl! My dad passed away in 2016, and I remember he had this album and he played it all the time, when I was young. My dad was a lover of music, all genres. I miss him so much! I miss my childhood! I wish I could go back, things were so peaceful, and so much simpler back then…..
I understand how you feel. This song takes me back to so many wonderful memories of driving to the beach with my parents and having huge picnics and just simpler times. Thank G-d for the wonderful memories💐
@A Shot of Hennessy I know what you mean but it really wasn't nicer, higher crime, higher unemployment, crappy economy. But yes we're heading down that road again now.
I swear every time a hear this song....I get up, close my eyes and get transported to a 70’s disco dance floor.....spinning in circles and all....this song is just simply JOY TO ME!!! 💕💕💕
Speaking for myself, I probably listen to these tunes more now than when they originally came out, hoping that today's performers would go back to those types of deliveries of music. Check out Native New Yorker , by Odyssey, comprised of my homegirls from the Virgin islands.
I lost my fiancée in a car wreck in 1995. She dedicated this song to me once, a couple years before that. It's November 2019, & I cannot hear this song without tear's. I still love my girl. Even now, she is the love of my life. My one & only. If I can't have you, sweet girl, I don't want nobody.... "For all our lives, & all eternity beyond..." I still mean it, Lark.
Just brought a tear to this grown man's eye! Lost for word's! Don't know what to say... Except.. I'm sure she knows it!! Know that, be happy and take care 🙂
Life was more FREE...now we all we have are governments trying to fleece us for every penny and feed us bullshit. Its all commy. If I drop diwn dead tomorrow I wont mind. Feel sorry for you in this digital age...and new musuc now us truely 99 pc crap.
@Veggie Madness I would have to take issue with that. We only know more about the ugliness of people today because of the internet. The average person today is far from being like that but you'll see it all the time online if that's where you spend most of your time. It's the red menace that makes a loud and grotesque minority seem like a repugnant majority.
Brings back memories of finishing school, first job, first apartment, girlfriend and a great movie. I think this is the best song from 'Saturday Night Fever'.
EPIC I was very young when Saturday night fever was on the Big screen. My older brother and I used to dance to this I was11 and he 14. Memories of my youth 💃🏻🎤🎶🎼
@@damianbrink5081 Of course you know, the "Saturday Night Fever" album won the Grammy for 1976, Best Album of the Year, beating out the "Star Wars" album; I watched the Grammys. in 1977. But the "Star Wars" album did win at least two Grammys then anyway, I forgot what for.

because this song was written by the Bee gees, but not for her. back in those days, you only got what was given to you. A lot of nepotism etc...shes an incredible singer
Barry Gibb is one songwriting genius, no joke. The amount of hit songs he wrote is uncountable, not just for his brothers, but for others, too, including this timeless gem. Well done, Mr Gibb. Thank you for your musical brilliance.
@@taisramiro1285, that's sad that many can't see the Bee Gees in this song. The brothers even recorded their own version of this song. Of course, though, this is the most famous version.
It's funny how the modern day female artists get so much recognition for being trend setters and breaking the barrier in music when in actuality there were so many talented and naturally beautiful female artists like this back in the 60s and 70s. Give these ladies the proper recognition and appreciation that they deserve 👏
People who say that didn't grow up in the 60's and 70's! Elvis took tremendous heat and backlash for breaking through the barriers in the 50's. He made it possible for a wide variety of other people to show their talents!
You are absolutely right, I am so glad I am the age I am now (70) as the music and the majority of the clubs we frequented were wonderful, mainly due to the atmosphere that was created by many of the feelgood songs like this.
So right, without Diana Ross there would've been no Aretha, Whitney or Beyonce. The Supremes broke down so many barriers making it acceptable for successful black female performers to "make it" in the mainstream- Aretha took it further and brought the soul just a couple of years later. The rest is history!
First time I'd heart Yvonne Elliman was on the _Jesus Christ, Superstar_ album, and her performance hit me down deep, I was like "who IS this!?" Loved that voice, and so when she reappeared in '77 with this song and "Love me Please" I was all over it. She's had a rough time recently and saddens me to see it, because it didn't have to be that way; but we all make poor decisions at times and it's only the resilient who get back up after falling down. Hope she's better....
... ich bin 58 Jahre jung und verbringe all meine freie Zeit, um diese wunderschönen Lieder zu hören - einfach auf den Punkt gebracht "fantastisch" ...😊❤🎉
Hi...auch ich mittlerweile 58er nehme mir oft die Zeit, um diese Klassiker zu geniessen...meist in den Sbendstunden bis in die Nacht...kann gar nicht mehr aufhören...jeder Song bringt neue Erinnerungen...Grüße R.
I'm the exact same way. 🤣 My friends call me granny and I'll be 30 this year. The 70's was an amazing era for their music, clothing & hairstyle, and films. Yes, they had a lot of crazy and depressing things going on in the world and politics but everything else seemed to have made up for it.
BORN IN 66 AND A KID DURING THE SUPER 70'S. 1000% AGREED. WHAT A GREAT TIME TO BE A KID GROWING UP WITHOUT A CARE IN THE WORLD. CLASS OF ROCKIN 84 HERE!!.
‘77 Can’t believe this is the same year I graduated from HS; Omg where has the time gone? What a beautiful singer, I’ve never seen her but loved the song, so sad lyrically though…♥️…
I Was Born On This Earthly World And Earthly Realm Of Gods In 1977 God Bless You Amen XXXXXXXX And God Bless Your Earthly Life Time And Earthly Family Amen XXXXXXXX
I'm 30 but my mamma played this song and songs like this my entire life. Makes me miss my mom so much. This was one of her favorites. Man the memories.
Hey i used to listen to these classics as a kid and hey these were best days love when we were growing up with music like this wish i could turn clock back some days, sorry to hear about ya mam love God bless ya xxx
I’m a junior right now in high school and love this type of music!! While we may not live the same life as those did in 70s, the music still lives on for many generations!!
BORN IN 66, A KID DURING THE SUPER 70'S, AND A TEEN DURING THE AWESOME 80'S. IT WAS A GREAT TIME TO GROW UP WITHOUT A CARE IN THE WORLD. CLASS OF ROCKIN 84 HERE. ROCK ON DL!!!.
i listen this in april 2024 in the netherlands what a great singer what a song what a legacy what a beautiful time. i never can have enough of this song. i love it.
As so many people say, much simpler times. Here in Australia, if you wanted to see, or hear something you went to it. Nowadays it's just in your face, everywhere.
Unforgettable moments... wonderful times, the sixties and seventies... quality music... times when everything was much more relaxed. Big contrast to today's society...! Yvonne Elliman... pure youth sentiment...!
RealGirl17 Some concerts were crazy with hardly any security, 70s were great TV sitcoms, Funny I thought Donny Osmond was Peter on Brady Bunch. We had it made in Snowy Buffalo,NY 10 years of concerts 4 every summer at Bills Stadium. Rolling Stones liked us they played 6 times over the years. Yes that Buffalo that lost 4 Superbowls & has only 3 months of summer. The only good thing is Niagara Falls is close for Tourists
I was 11 years old when Saturday night Fever and all of those amazing songs came out the 70's were an amazing time to grow up..I wouldn't change it for all of the technology that we have today..
@@jackstubbington387 Speaking of that... in the stage band of the original Broadway production "Jesus Christ Super Star" was phenomenal guitarist Elliott Randall, who's memorable guitar solo no doubt you've heard on Steely Dan's "Reelin' in The Years." Elliott put out a few incredible albums in the early 70's with his band "Randall's Island" that contained most of the original members of the JCSS Broadway stage band. But he was also a well known NYC studio musician and commercial jingle writer of the time.
Another Hawaiian singer I like from Japanese ancestry "Yuna Ito" has similar beautiful appearance. Check her song Endless Story from the Japanese Movie version of the Manga "NANA" (adopted with Japanese lyrics by Ito from the song "If I'm Not in Love With You," by American singer/writer Faith Hill).
I don't care what her ancestry is, YOU HAVE TO FEEL WHAT SHE IS SAYING AND UNDERSTAND!! Oh BTW that is emotion, which the younger crowd can't understand
In my experience, the music people think is the best is the stuff that was popular between their ages of 14 and 23 - in short, high school and college. :-) But objectively, I really do think that the music that came out between about 1976 and 1991 is some of the best music ever. Evaluated in terms of songwriting, lyric writing, arranging and producing... It *is* possible to evaluate music objectively.
The Bee Gees only released their version of the song as a b-side to Stayin' Alive _after_ Yvonne's version on the SNF soundtrack. Then later on Bee Gees Greatest in 2007.
You are thinking of her earlier Bee Gees cover, "Love Me," which was included in their 1976 "Children Of The World" album. That Elliman single made it to #14 on the U. S. charts later the same year as the Bee Gees' album, which didn't spin off a single of "Love Me" but had three other singles from it reach the U.S. Top 40. So "Love Me" wasn't a dud for them, but it wasn't a hit, so it didn't really go anywhere. The Bee Gees, who were her RSO labelmates, gave her "If I Can't Have You" for their "Saturday Night Fever" and released their own version just before that as the B-side of "Stayin' Alive." But Yvonne's version was the one that topped the chart (knocking off the Bee Gee's longest #1 single, "Night Fever," after eight weeks.)
It didn't go anywhere. This was just a song among many others that would have been included to their new album following Children of the World. But as we all know, their next album never came to be, well sort of. Instead it morphed into the soundtrack of Saturday Night Fever. Which means a couple song, including this one If I Can't Have You and Warm Ride et al ended as B singles or never released. I always wondered what kind of album the Bee Gees would have produced if Saturday Night Fever never came into existence.
I am 55, and remember this song from the movie Saturday Night Fever (It was sung in the background when Tony sits in the nudy bar talking with Anette). I began to love this song, when i heard it on the LP soundtrack of the movie. Since then, if i hear this song, i always remember the `70`s as the good and simple times. I mean, we`ve been there. We can talk about that time. This song is for me a more nostalgia. Wish we could go back..👍👍
@@ivanrayanguiano3217 your parents had the pleasure to live at the end of the 60`s, and all the way through the 70`s, ànd not to forget the great 80`s....such nice and simple times.
I Love listening to Yvonne Ellinan. I also remember her singing some of her hit songs on American Bandstand. I miss that show and Dick Clark May he RIP 🙏 🎉
For all the less-than-uplifting headlines of the decade, this was the best decade of all time for music. LITERALLY ABSOLUTELY NO ONE GOT LEFT BEHIND. No matter your age range, your subject matter, or your style, there was always something out there for you.
Danielle, especially if the words of this song reflect on your life. If you can't have the one you want, you don't want anyone. But I certainly hope you have the one you want, if not, they'll show up one day when you least expect it.
Oooh - the days of the 70's - Wow. The music, afros, platform shoes, polyester vibrant clothing, 8 tracks, wine coolers, funky dances 💃🕺, bell bottoms, black movies, ( Shaft, Superfly etc), oooh yea the muscle cars and the cadillac fleetwood. etc. We would walk around saying "Diamond in the back, sunroof top, digging the scene with a gangster lean - hoo hoo.👍. Definitely miss the 70's - can we turn back the clocks🕛 of time😊
Que maravillosa canción, cuando la escucho afloran en mi los mejores recuerdos vividos en la época de los 70. Con nostalgia y tristeza por esos tiempos que no volverán.
Tienes razón, en esa época éramos adolescentes y lo peor que nos podía pasar es que el chico que nos gustaba no se fijara en nosotros . Y ahora a resolver todo lo que se nos presente.
Justo pensaba en eso... Dios mio cuanta alegría al recordar esos momentos felices, pero a la vez que tristeza en el alma saber que no volverán. Pero todo es como una espiral y de algun modo volveremos a tener momentos magicos como esos. Te envío un abrazo muy grande Cristina.

@@alexcarratu5554 You are right!! Barry wrote it!😍 Unfortunally, many people cant´t see Bee Gees in this song😪 Xoxo from Brazil!🙏 Taís Ramiro
@@taisramiro1285, that's sad that many can't see the Bee Gees in this song. The brothers even recorded their own version of this song. Of course, though, this is the most famous version.
@Alex Carratu sincerely, i never heard the bee gees version , but i´ll😍 tks!!
It's funny how the modern day female artists get so much recognition for being trend setters and breaking the barrier in music when in actuality there were so many talented and naturally beautiful female artists like this back in the 60s and 70s. Give these ladies the proper recognition and appreciation that they deserve 👏
People who say that didn't grow up in the 60's and 70's! Elvis took tremendous heat and backlash for breaking through the barriers in the 50's. He made it possible for a wide variety of other people to show their talents!
You are absolutely right, I am so glad I am the age I am now (70) as the music and the majority of the clubs we frequented were wonderful, mainly due to the atmosphere that was created by many of the feelgood songs like this.
So right, without Diana Ross there would've been no Aretha, Whitney or Beyonce. The Supremes broke down so many barriers making it acceptable for successful black female performers to "make it" in the mainstream- Aretha took it further and brought the soul just a couple of years later. The rest is history!
Breaking the screech barrier today, more like.
Yeah... honestly female artists today are unbelievably wack
There was a time when music was as close to magic as we could get! This song definitely fits that category!
I am 60 still listen to it❤❤
I'm not the only one who's listening to this masterpiece in May
nope :)

No one could ever top doing this tune! She was born to do this song! Love it!
First time I'd heart Yvonne Elliman was on the _Jesus Christ, Superstar_ album, and her performance hit me down deep, I was like "who IS this!?" Loved that voice, and so when she reappeared in '77 with this song and "Love me Please" I was all over it. She's had a rough time recently and saddens me to see it, because it didn't have to be that way; but we all make poor decisions at times and it's only the resilient who get back up after falling down. Hope she's better....
love love this song from the 80s to now ❤️
I heard these melodies during my adolescence. Life was very simple and this reminds me of those happy times
The Bee Gees themselves, of course ♥️🎵
... ich bin 58 Jahre jung und verbringe all meine freie Zeit, um diese wunderschönen Lieder zu hören - einfach auf den Punkt gebracht "fantastisch" ...😊❤🎉
Hi...auch ich mittlerweile 58er nehme mir oft die Zeit, um diese Klassiker zu geniessen...meist in den Sbendstunden bis in die Nacht...kann gar nicht mehr aufhören...jeder Song bringt neue Erinnerungen...Grüße R.
Shone....58 jahre JUNG! 😅
Du hast recht!
Anch'io come te con tanta tanta nostalgia
Wooooow I'm amazed how a song can bring back so many memories from way back in my childhood 😊💖
I'm 22 with a 45 yr old mentality.. 70's and 80's music will always be the best!
Nothing wrong with that!
Same her but i’m 12
I'm the exact same way. 🤣 My friends call me granny and I'll be 30 this year. The 70's was an amazing era for their music, clothing & hairstyle, and films. Yes, they had a lot of crazy and depressing things going on in the world and politics but everything else seemed to have made up for it.
There is no comparison between this and the slop of today. The 70's were amazing.
You got that right!
I'm so blessed to have been around when this song came out. It was so nice growing up in the 70s.
I was single digits old myself … I truly miss that time 😎
I was born 70 and this was a classic xx
Music is not music anymore. Electric garbage. No one plays instruments. No one talks about how bad music is now.
BORN IN 66 AND A KID DURING THE SUPER 70'S. 1000% AGREED. WHAT A GREAT TIME TO BE A KID GROWING UP WITHOUT A CARE IN THE WORLD. CLASS OF ROCKIN 84 HERE!!.
IF YOU WERE WHITE STRAIGHT MALE AND HAD WEALTHY PARENTS- EVERYONE ELSE WAS FUCKED
67 years young a d still loving Saturday night Fever music.
Famous songs do not fade over the years. The depth of this song cannot be expressed in current music. very impressive.
This song has nothing to do with modern music. What are you talking about?
This Hawaiian Japanese Irish Goddess brings back memories of when my parents were once happy and dancing! Long live disco! ❤
Gorgeous almond black shaped 👀 and good pop singinng voice but damned playback

got that right
Big up your chest so true what you said one love from tp
I’m a junior right now in high school and love this type of music!! While we may not live the same life as those did in 70s, the music still lives on for many generations!!

Yvonne Elliman + Bee Gees = perfection
A great and down to earth young singer, whom change the meaning of friendship and love between a modern man and a woman. God bless
This lady has class, style,dignity, talent and a golden voice.
Sophia Bulgaria everyone has there ups and downs
Unfortunately she's been in trouble with the law for drug abuse/drug trafficking...her fall from grace has been harsh :(
Don’t forget beauty.
Why she dress like open surgery or something, all there for pervert to see it.
Unlike the crap today. X
I can't stand that when I search for "if I can't have you", Shawn's song comes out and not this masterpiece :(
Ugh fr

Timeless

Love you so much Yvonne,,,,46 years have gone by and this song is still in my heart.❤
What a great song written by The Bee Gees and a great performance from Yvonne Elliman.
Well of course ,, What great song did the Bee Gees NOT write lol ,The 70s were the best 10 years EVER
I miss my youth. Good times. 1977
8 Track flashback 1977
As so many people say, much simpler times. Here in Australia, if you wanted to see, or hear something you went to it. Nowadays it's just in your face, everywhere.
who doesn't
Oh Yeah ☺❤
Indeed. Our youth was wasted on the young. Though, I don't know what 58 is supposed to feel or look like.
I am 72 and was a cop during the Disco Era. I worked the Disco clubs off duty. I had a ball. Love Disco and love this song even today
Take me back to the late 1970s! get me out of 2019!!!!!
Chris Ward ill go with you .man.
Room for one more? 1970anything
Can I come with you PLEASE? Turned 61 today - easy math - was 21 in 1979.
Ready to go now
When we leaving?
It's October 2019 and this song is just as good as the day it was released - timeless
Yanni Stath great times and the music was superb
Timeless classic
Did she write this song? Wonder who she was talkin about and if she ever got him...or her! 😉
AGREED!!!!!
Loved this song first time i heard it in 70s. Still love 1 of the best songs ever
I’m also 55 and I love this one. Amazing song.
Oh my goodness, this brings back so many feelings of the 70s , I could almost cry.
This song is 40 years old AND CAN STILL BEAT ANYTHING ON THE RADIO NOW! 2017
Everything on the radio is either a lame remake or a computerized, auto-tuned version of bad singing
That Is So So TRUE
Easily!
michael cooper PURE UNADULTERATED FACT!
I actually prefer LFO's remake of this song.
One of greatest songs ever can listen over and over and over. Nothing today compares
So true
Soo true
@Norbero Fontanez no, I'm Jamaican
How so very true.
So very true. I know she is my # 1.
Million are still alive, we had the pleasure to enjoyed this beautiful era
What a voice!.
Brought me back to when I was 10.
Yvonne Elliman is a damn fine looking woman singing a damn fine sounding song !!!
One of the most beautiful women that sang a very beautiful song in the 70's.
BeeGees music good sound👍💖🇵🇹
I believe that she was in the Musical "Hair"; beautiful warm and soulful voice.
Hawaiian beauty
@@jenniferdean1835 she was actually in the very first Jesus Christ Superstar. Was she in Hair too?
Music that never dies
Need to find a time machine and take us back to 70's and 80's truly the best time of my life,,,
Grew up in the 70s still listen to this ❤❤❤❤
Unforgettable moments... wonderful times, the sixties and seventies... quality music... times when everything was much more relaxed. Big contrast to today's society...! Yvonne Elliman... pure youth sentiment...!
Who else is quarentined and listening to this awesome hit song? 😷

Beautiful lady, wonderful song! Absolutely love the seventies. Thank you Yvonne Elliman and Barry Gibbs for this extraordinary creation!! ♥️♥️
RealGirl17 Some concerts were crazy with hardly any security, 70s were great TV sitcoms, Funny I thought Donny Osmond was Peter on Brady Bunch. We had it made in Snowy Buffalo,NY 10 years of concerts 4 every summer at Bills Stadium. Rolling Stones liked us they played 6 times over the years. Yes that Buffalo that lost 4 Superbowls & has only 3 months of summer. The only good thing is Niagara Falls is close for Tourists
70's was the best time in the world to grow up, surrounded by the wonderful song of music, so memorable
Wide right.
I was 11 years old when Saturday night Fever and all of those amazing songs came out the 70's were an amazing time to grow up..I wouldn't change it for all of the technology that we have today..
RealGirl17 I want to call the 70's back.Just a wonderful time and whats more we knew it even as we lived them.
This beautiful song/artist still makes me cry a little at 67.
This beautiful song has a lot wonderful positive energy!! Makes you want to listen to it over and over.
Which Is Exactly What I Am Doing God Bless You Amen XXXXXXXX And God Bless Your Earthly Life Time And Earthly Family Amen XXXXXXXX
She is hawaian, with japanese ancestry on her mom's side.
yes her Mom was of Japanese ethnicity while her father was of Caucasian (primarily Irish) ethnicity.
Surely sheus mixed clean lady
@@jackstubbington387 Speaking of that... in the stage band of the original Broadway production "Jesus Christ Super Star" was phenomenal guitarist Elliott Randall, who's memorable guitar solo no doubt you've heard on Steely Dan's "Reelin' in The Years." Elliott put out a few incredible albums in the early 70's with his band "Randall's Island" that contained most of the original members of the JCSS Broadway stage band. But he was also a well known NYC studio musician and commercial jingle writer of the time.
Another Hawaiian singer I like from Japanese ancestry "Yuna Ito" has similar beautiful appearance. Check her song Endless Story from the Japanese Movie version of the Manga "NANA" (adopted with Japanese lyrics by Ito from the song "If I'm Not in Love With You," by American singer/writer Faith Hill).
I don't care what her ancestry is, YOU HAVE TO FEEL WHAT SHE IS SAYING AND UNDERSTAND!! Oh BTW that is emotion, which the younger crowd can't understand
Such a beautiful voice 💗❣
👋🏽 I love everything I’m glad to here. Godspeed 💕
Anybody else miss the 70's, the music was the best!
Johnny Craven OMG please don't leave me out my era so damn happy! ! UTUBE IS MY TIME MACHINE LMAO
Louise Hampton Truth to be told AMEN! !
Johnny Craven miss 70s and all the great groups
big time.
In my experience, the music people think is the best is the stuff that was popular between their ages of 14 and 23 - in short, high school and college. :-)
But objectively, I really do think that the music that came out between about 1976 and 1991 is some of the best music ever. Evaluated in terms of songwriting, lyric writing, arranging and producing... It *is* possible to evaluate music objectively.
One of the absolute BEST songs ever written and sung!
You have a good taste!!! COngratulations.
Marvelous voice and song 👍
agree
Written by The Bee Gees!
The was why Bee Gees is one of the best composer all the time.
Back when a person had to SING! Nothing but TALENT!! Love it even today.
dancing to this at the BBC disco in Chicago, great memories
2021 and still rocking. Great music, voice and beautiful woman.
WHAT A GREAT SONG BRINGS BACK GOOD TIME'S CHILD HOOD MEMORIES
2023
2023-2024
Barry Gibb wrote this for the Bee Gees but it never went anywhere so he gave it to Yvonne to sing and the rest is history.
The Bee Gees only released their version of the song as a b-side to Stayin' Alive _after_ Yvonne's version on the SNF soundtrack. Then later on Bee Gees Greatest in 2007.
You are thinking of her earlier Bee Gees cover, "Love Me," which was included in their 1976 "Children Of The World" album. That Elliman single made it to #14 on the U. S. charts later the same year as the Bee Gees' album, which didn't spin off a single of "Love Me" but had three other singles from it reach the U.S. Top 40. So "Love Me" wasn't a dud for them, but it wasn't a hit, so it didn't really go anywhere.
The Bee Gees, who were her RSO labelmates, gave her "If I Can't Have You" for their "Saturday Night Fever" and released their own version just before that as the B-side of "Stayin' Alive." But Yvonne's version was the one that topped the chart (knocking off the Bee Gee's longest #1 single, "Night Fever," after eight weeks.)
It didn't go anywhere. This was just a song among many others that would have been included to their new album following Children of the World. But as we all know, their next album never came to be, well sort of. Instead it morphed into the soundtrack of Saturday Night Fever. Which means a couple song, including this one If I Can't Have You and Warm Ride et al ended as B singles or never released. I always wondered what kind of album the Bee Gees would have produced if Saturday Night Fever never came into existence.
It was Robin's idea to give it to Yvonne after his wife saw her singing and told him about her, and Frankie Valli wanted the song first..
Really?didn't know that'it is a beautiful song.Thanks
What a great song..and this lady can sing. .❤❤ Great love / disco ...feel .🌈
I have always loved this song! 😁
I'M LISTENING TO THIS SONG ON MARCH 17TH, 2019💖

Meus 17 anos. ..fase maravilhosa e essa música é uma delas....bons momentos vividos que recordo com muita alegria....show...❤❤❤
Fantastic voice. Gorgeous woman! Amazing talent!!
When music still left a mark on your soul.
If music no longer leaves a mark on your soul that's your problem nobody else.
I think the 70s had the best music of all time.
I prefer music from 60,s 70,s & 80s to today's rubbish music.
I agree with you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and the 50's.
Me too i think so !
I agree, 70s was the best.
This song is so good!!
What a pretty and very charming woman ,hello my darling ?
Been listening for the last 2hrs.
I am 55, and remember this song from the movie Saturday Night Fever (It was sung in the background when Tony sits in the nudy bar talking with Anette).
I began to love this song, when i heard it on the LP soundtrack of the movie.
Since then, if i hear this song, i always remember the `70`s as the good and simple times. I mean, we`ve been there. We can talk about that time.
This song is for me a more nostalgia. Wish we could go back..👍👍
Johan Lebbing Saturday Night Fever brought me here I’m 34 years old but my parents had this music on all the time
@@ivanrayanguiano3217 your parents had the pleasure to live at the end of the 60`s, and all the way through the 70`s, ànd not to forget the great 80`s....such nice and simple times.
I was in high school when this song started on air. So much memories indeed. Times were good back then. Nothing but fun.
touching words, Johan. I'm 55 too. Watch this video. You might enjoy the journey back: th-cam.com/video/wR_ZUgY4k0Q/w-d-xo.html
I think everyone who has ever watched that movie feels the same way ..some music just makes you feel a certain way
I was so young when I listened ti this Great song, I'm 55 and still do it
Alirio Larrazabal , Love this woman's voice.

I Love listening to Yvonne Ellinan. I also remember her singing some of her hit songs on American Bandstand. I miss that show and Dick Clark May he RIP 🙏 🎉
A great song and still sounds as fresh today, glad I was a youth, I had the best music to live with and to dance to..........

ñ,
Same here :)
For all the less-than-uplifting headlines of the decade, this was the best decade of all time for music. LITERALLY ABSOLUTELY NO ONE GOT LEFT BEHIND. No matter your age range, your subject matter, or your style, there was always something out there for you.
I am basically in a lifelong love affair with this song.
Danielle, especially if the words of this song reflect on your life. If you can't have the one you want, you don't want anyone. But I certainly hope you have the one you want, if not, they'll show up one day when you least expect it.
Yep, I’m with you
you have the heart of a poet.
me too..I was 9 when this song came out and Im 52 now and still listening. Thank God for youtube.
I so dig this song 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Oooh - the days of the 70's - Wow. The music, afros, platform shoes, polyester vibrant clothing, 8 tracks, wine coolers, funky dances 💃🕺, bell bottoms, black movies, ( Shaft, Superfly etc), oooh yea the muscle cars and the cadillac fleetwood. etc. We would walk around saying "Diamond in the back, sunroof top, digging the scene with a gangster lean - hoo hoo.👍. Definitely miss the 70's - can we turn back the clocks🕛 of time😊
Mein Gott, was habe ich nach diesem Lied in den 70ern getanzt u nicht nur danach😢😢😢😢😢
Que maravillosa canción, cuando la escucho afloran en mi los mejores recuerdos vividos en la época de los 70. Con nostalgia y tristeza por esos tiempos que no volverán.
Oui Hélas.
懐かしいね
Merveilleuse chanson.
Tienes razón, en esa época éramos adolescentes y lo peor que nos podía pasar es que el chico que nos gustaba no se fijara en nosotros . Y ahora a resolver todo lo que se nos presente.
Justo pensaba en eso... Dios mio cuanta alegría al recordar esos momentos felices, pero a la vez que tristeza en el alma saber que no volverán. Pero todo es como una espiral y de algun modo volveremos a tener momentos magicos como esos. Te envío un abrazo muy grande Cristina.
