❤❤❤ A marvellous film. My first date with my than boyfriend. Now we are 43 year together having 4 beautifull sons. My husband hated to go to see a movie, but seeing this one made us the couple we still are... so when I hear this song it is always remembers me to a sparkling night where love started.. so THANK you so so much ❤❤❤
What's so amazing about this movie is it was made from a magazine article, about the dying disco scene in 1975, before it ever became huge after this movie, and was part of a 2-3 movie contract for Travolta with Grease being the main film but it(Grease)was still on Broadway and they had wait for Greases Broadway run to finish before they could film or release Grease, so Saturday Night Fever came out 1st. And I agree now myself being 55 in 2023 the last scene is the best of SNF. John Travolta has given us so many great movies.
One of the most powerful scenes in the movie because for Tony his night ends and morning begins with a new perspective. How Deep Is Your Love perfectly sums it up.
The scenes after his friend dies and he walks away from his old life to hang onto his friendship and start a new growth into a man are just beautiful and to me really elevate this already good film into a real classic. The last scene with them both being supportive friends embracing each other gets to my old and cynical heart everytime! ❤️
It is very sad that the Bee Gees was only remembered for its success in disco music. They had a string of hits in the late 1960s as well. They had ten top 20 hits including #1 on the chart with How Can You Mend A Broken Heart prior to 1973. Also, their talents were spread to country music. Rest Your Love and the mega hit Island in The Stream were The Bee Gees creation.
Well, I was born in 1977 in Brooklyn NY. Every time I see this video it reminds me of what my parents were dancing to and enjoying life to when I was a toddler. My mom has since passed away and I still have my old man with me, and I know he loves this time in his life.
G.A Betance same here. Born in August. All the stories my parents told me about the filming of this movie. How much of a mob scene 86th Street was and stuff around Bensonhurst. Unfortunately both parents have passed. Be well my friend.
robin wrote all the songs without reading or even knowing what the story is like...yet we feel all the songs are so deeply connect with the movie. Legendary genius!!!
I thank band "Take That" for introducing me to this song in 1996 and my mum for loving Bee Gees. My mum and dad love late 70's and 80's as (they disliked early 70's..the world was tense) it was their youth..they had their first jobs, got married had my sister during this era..I was born in 1990 so I missed it out (they now also love 90's just like I do). It feels so great to know they were young..they loved this era and these songs as I feel sad to see them grow old. But anyway love to see my parents being happy listening to these songs.
Oh, I wish I was of age back then in 1977. I wish I was at Woodstock too. I wish I could've been there in all these important times in music 🎶 🎵. RUclips keeps it all in context and Alive for me and all the young people that are curious about the beautiful music we all grow up hearing!✌️✝️🎵🎶
Hi, it's called All Night Train, still remain unreleased due to the source on Wiki. The boom sounds you hear come from Pollard Quad Electronic Percussion set, it used to be played on almost every disco and funk song by late 70's.
Batman I was born in 1991 the early 90's when my mom graduated in that year from high school she was born in the early 70's and went to school in the late 70's the little girl my mom was at the time learning and getting education.

Great time to be either a kid like in my generation or a teenager to early 20s in the 1970s. Of course every generation has their good memories of a particular decade, I just feel fortunate to have lived this era and to the present.God has given me a wonderful gift, LIFE.
The last scene feels like such an honest moment, and I don't think "We'll be just friends" ever sounded so romantic in my life. This was Tony's biggest moment of growth and realization, so being that I don't think they could just stay friends. By the way she's drawn in close to him, it's apparent to me that he finally had grown into the man that she loved.
Nah nobody just changes overnight like that, and she never expected him too. But she does see that he's had a moment of realization that he might not have ever had if he hadn't of met her, and that's where their bond truly comes from. They were great as friends and even better on the dance floor, but it was never gonna work beyond that because she was worlds ahead of him maturity wise. He fell in love with her because she was the first woman who was immune to his charms and didn't let him walk all over her. She made him look at everything differently and start to see women, love, life and himself in a whole new light. That hug signified not only the bond they shared, but also the acceptance of what their relationship actually was but also what it would never be. It was in that moment that he finally accepted it because for the first time in his life, it was about a relationship based on more than just sex and partying, it was actually about real friendship and that's what he valued her for. But none of that makes them compatible, and deep down he knew it.
@martymcfly5764 Arguments like yours are what make movies like this so great and maybe a bit underappreciated on an intellectual level. The ambiguity of their relationship at this point leaves you hoping for the best yet never knowing it's outcome.
@@ExMachina70 I was only about 8 years old when I saw it for the first time, but even then I understood the unspoken language behind that hug. She was already on a mission to find herself, meanwhile his journey hadn't even yet begun. Had they tried walking the same path together, they would only continue to bump heads. Right now their arguing works because it's sort of flirtatious and almost like a form of foreplay. They are friends who are attracted to one another, and yes, also have some blossoming feelings for one another on some level. But those feelings are not simplistic or based on commonalities or anything practical. I would also describe her feelings as more of a soft spot whereas his feelings are much more intense. So I truly believe that the dynamic would quickly change and their arguing would intensify as they soon realized how incompatible they were if they had taken the relationship to the next level. In my heart of hearts, I truly believe that they were only ever meant to be a fond memory for each other that they would both look back on from time to time and smile as they remembered the wild days of their youth. They happened for a reason, but they just weren't meant to be.
@@martymcfly5764 My reply wasn't so much as an argument against what you're saying so much as the deeper layers that the movie gave to us that I personally believe (and I could be wrong) wasn't appreciated so much in the time that the movie was made.

@@ExMachina70 I get that you weren't trying to argue and I wasn't either, I was just adding to my initial comment. Your comments were very insightful and I really enjoyed reading them. I've noticed that most people automatically "root for" the relationship of the main characters because they're so caught up in the fantasy and the idea of it that they're not looking at the underlying reality of how things would ultimately turn out if those two people actually did decide to get together. But I guess that's the whole point of going to see a movie right, fantasy and a temporary break from the mundane? It's only natural for people to want a happy ending, especially since a lot of that is probably projection and wishful thinking where their own lives are concerned. We go watch a movie to take our mind off our problems and no one wants to leave the movie theatre feeling sad or wistful, so I guess it makes sense for most people to pretend that all the characters ended up living perfect lives in an alternate universe somewhere. But then you have people like me who don't necessarily try to overanalyze things, we just see things for what they are.
As a nine year old in '77 on Long Island, it was always a cool thrill to visit my amazing uncle in Brooklyn. Driving on the L.I.E. towards Manhattan on the weekend, turning on to the B.Q.E. just as the skyscrapers of NYC came into view. Dad would turn on 92 WKTU for some disco and we would feel the crazy vibe. I remember it was Christmastime, trimmed trees in so many homes, holiday lights in Bensonhurst ablaze in every window it seemed. Cugines walking around with slick hair and gold chains, my cousins getting ready to hit the disco after dinner...and that Saturday Night Fever album sitting on the Panasonic turntable. All of the cousins had a listening party before we ate and we knew that this album was something very special. As a nine year old I could almost feel the hormones in the air as my cousins girlfriends came over before they all departed for the club...man I never wished more in my life to be an 18 year old. Everyone has hair like Farrah Faucett and they were wearing tight polyester...and the scent of heavy cologne and perfume was intoxicating. My cousin Mark was accompanying his younger sister and I understood why...her delicious girlfriends. I felt like I had been drugged. I almost understood what the hell was going on but I wish I could bottle that feeling up and take the energy of Brooklyn, winter of '77 with me forever. luckily the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack did that for me and that's as good as it gets...
Thank you for a very well written memory. I am your age. I had just turned 10 when this movie came out in December 1977. I was lucky enough to have my parent to take me in the theater to see it. The movie and music was a craze then. I was too for the discos. I would love to have been born ten years earlier like 1957 and seen the early disco days of 1975 and all the way to 1979. Studio 54 must have been sick with people wearing coke sports s as necklaces in the discos. But I loved the dancing and colorful lights. It was an era that was the perfect follow up to the psychedelic colorful 1960’s Woodstock culture - it had that sense of community. But anyway this movie was based on an article I think from 1975 or 76 in New York magazine by a writer Nick Cohn who wrote about the Brooklyn guidos and the disco culture of the mid 1970’s.
Wow nicely said ! Wish we could go back in time ! If only ! I love this sound track ! Every song was gold ! This was amazing sound track tell this day ! Boy I was in love with John Travolta back then . I was only 7 or 8 I believe . But I remember . That sound track ! One of my favorites of all time !
I was born in 76 grew up in Bensonhurst. 86th n 20th where the cars went up and down under the El. I miss those times so much.. especially the holidays and the Italian bakeries.
Speaking of the Twin Towers, there is footage from 9/11 where you can hear this song playing over the loudspeakers in the plaza as the towers are burning. ruclips.net/video/J_8HEvE8k58/видео.html
That moment you grow apart from your friends. He knew it, they knew it. Moving on isn’t always a bad thing. Most people stay stuck in their lives through fear. This is worse than never leaving.
Tony did not grow part from his friends. Nothing ever changed with him. His friend either committed suicide or had a very bad accident and is now dead. The young lady that loved him, is now ruined! Yet, all he can think about is some pu...that he wanted that he didn’t seem to be able to get it. I love the movie myself but a very bad message not a good one and not romantic.
I was 18 years old when I saw this in the theaters. I don’t think I blinked the entire time I was watching. Completely mesmerized. The soundtrack alone was out of this world. Totally shocked that Vinnie Barbarino from welcome back Kotter cleaned up so well. John Travolta’s transformation was impressive. 👀👀 The reason it didn’t win movie of the year was because Star Wars came out the same year.
1:46 it’s kind of ominous how the Twin Towers appear in this scene, and just 24 years later, How Deep is your Love would be one of the last songs played at the World Trade Center on 9/11
I thank God i lived in that absoluut FREE time, everybody was happy..... there is nobody take me this time of my life! Ik ben God dankbaar dat ik deze tijd ervaren heb, iedereen was blij en niemand kan ons dat afnemen!
Yes! The keyword was Hope. Good things were happening all around. Today's world seems hopeless, as do it's young. There is no joy in these Un-United States. Hope has become Hate. It is not a good time to be alive.
Thanks for posting this! I was there in 1977. My great uncle served in WWII and settled in NYC for good after the war ended. I spent a lot of time walking the streets around his Manhattan apartment and all over NYC. The images in this video take me back in time and make me feel young and present in a world that I loved. Thanks again!
I was 14 yrs old when this movie came out and it only seems like yesterday. I remember buying the sat night fever album, at kmart. Took it home and wore it out on my dad's record player. Oh, what I would do to go back to this time and be young again, naive and innocent about the world.
God , please I pray for this Nation The United States , the People , in crisis and trying to get back on on track . I pray for the leaders of this Nation , that you guide them in the way they should go for the People , secured state 🇺🇸🌏
This Movie is a Time Capsule that captured that era the late 70's on film, froze it, this is what we wore, in those days, the music that we listened to, it was cool then, a joke to those that did'nt live in that era or wear the clothes, you really misses out, it was pure magic. The Music wasen't mean sprited sand dead like it is today, it was all about Love, it was alive, it made you feel good and happy. This Movie was so real and good, I liked the entire Movie, but its this last scene where Tony was feeling the very real hurt and confusion and clarity from the loss of his Friend, the one that looked up to him, in this instance Tony wants to change and grow up. In that Room, by the Window, that morning, the Brick walls, the sunlight and the still shot of the two in the window trying to start again, new. How deep is your Love?
Willie Fufu the movie kinda makes it look cool... most of the time, in the beginning the Stephanie character looked dopey in her introductory dance scenes, and I didn't understand what the tony character was so smitten by... As the movie went on she grew on me though.
perfectly said. I turned 18 that year. this was us. fell in love. she broke my heart. always dressed to the nines with my pack of boros always in my pocket. so glad I grew up when I did.
Best scene in the movie I always cry during this scene reason it was a very sentimental ending and the song goes nice with it. He knew what he did was wrong and he was man enough to go to her place and apologize to her which she forgave him and saved their friendship as they remain friends anyone got a tissue for me
Gene Siskel the movie critic said this was the greatest movie ever made and this scene in particular the best he ever seen. Look it up if you don't believe me. Funny thing is I agree with him.
Excellent song and movie from those days bring me great memories and sad ones. That woman represented the many self centered women I met during those days who were simply full of themselves.
growing up, in the Bronx anytime I am alone on the train late of night, I always think back to Tony's ride to Manhattan, We take the train everywhere, I love SNF for it's colors and cameras movements, you're film really captures so much emotions, I watch these videos often thinking about my good friends on Pelham Parkway, my father, for myself the film is timeless, just sad they didnt make a real sequel
I love this song. I remember watching Saturday Night Fever for the first time 10 years ago. I was still in high school at the time. When I listen to this song with the different clips of Saturday Night Fever together, it just brings back memories of when I first enjoyed the Bee Gees songs from this movie including the movie itself. 2:26-2:42 is my favorite scene of seeing Tony and Stephanie together and also my favorite part of the song.
I was 7 years old when this movie came out and my mom bought the album. Great soundtrack all the way around. Thanks for introducing to great music, ma.
Flatbush and Flatlands ... so many adorable Karen Goreys and street characters... all gone now...I hate what has been taken from us by these asshole elites and handed to people that should have stayed home ...there I said it...
I will never ever forget when I first watched the subway scene and first heard this song as a kid. It was shown on TV in Hong Kong in the early 90’s. This song has been my no.1 favorite ever since. Then I moved to Brooklyn NY in the late 90’s, what a dream came true! What simple happiness that was for me
Música que te traen gratos recuerdo de tu juventud cuando podía salir a cualquier hora sin temor, tiempo que de seamos que volviera pero todo tiene un principio y un fin y de nosotros yego pero tiempo como esto nunca habrá que viva los 80
The college days of early 90/91 when a lot where listening to techno and rap, I stumbled on this cassette album after watching the movie SNF. Boy it took me a different way of life as in the movie. Unfortunately my days a student didn’t last as I had settled down in 93. Looking back was a eye opener for myself and the sounds of the late 70’s bee-geese.
Brooklyn in 1977 before the hipsters and the transplants. Awesome! I wasn't born at the time yet nor did I live in NYC but it's nice to see what Brooklyn looked like in those days. I can imagine the nostalgia of the Brooklynites who grew up in that era when they watch this movie. The shots of the Brooklyn bridge and the Manhattan skyline are iconic!
was very crazy times. summer of 77 was historic. 18 at year. Yankees. blackout. son of sam. drugs. garbage everywhere. big hair. always dressed to impress. everyone smoked. so many drugs. clubs every night. so glad I grew up then. was magical.

I was born in 1988 hearing this music it take me back in time when making music it took talent to compose lyrics. I wish my generation could make music and lyric as the past generation.
1:29 the face of frustration, grief of a man when they lose hope of conquering the love of their life ... that expression is unique in men truly in love.
Recuerdo cuando era muy pequeña, con mi papá veía esta película y cada vez que salía la escena del tren lloraba tanto sin saber de que se trataba la película, más bien era por la música y la manera en que la actuación se juntaban, hacían un ambiente muy triste y ahora que soy una adolescente entiendo realmente la historia y el sentimentalismo de la película y me hace llorar aún más :'(
Nuestra Generación fue muuuy afortunada al crecer escuchando los Beatles , pero también los Bee Gees siguieron después dejando una huella imborrable con su música y la película Fiebre de Sábado por la noche nos deleitó con sus canciones 😢
A new day is dawning over midtown manhatten after the night at 2001 Odyssey in bayridge Brooklyn.....tony goes to Stephanie's apartment to be with her 👍😁 great ending in Saturday night fever 👍🤎
❤❤❤
A marvellous film. My first date with my than boyfriend. Now we are 43 year together having 4 beautifull sons. My husband hated to go to see a movie, but seeing this one made us the couple we still are... so when I hear this song it is always remembers me to a sparkling night where love started.. so THANK you so so much
❤❤❤
He tried to r*pe her, he belongs in jail.
From 1978 to 1982 I had an intense relationship with a woman in New York. This was our song. I can't hear it now without a tear coming to my eye.
Still after all of these years? Where is she now? Special time in history.
ONE OF THE GREATEST LOVE SONGS! That whole soundtrack was the biggest album ever until Thriller. GREAT SONG!
Songs can bring up painful nostalgic memories
Very lucky to experience it some never do.
You are very lucky. I've never had such a big love.
I was 7 in 1977. I remember this film being massive. I love the 70s
It was! I had just graduated High School dating a girl In West Hartford in 1977. It was huge!🙂
I was 6. I remember how massive this movie was also. Saturday Night Fever and Grease!!
I was sixteen years old in 1977….I’m sixty-three years old,now! I can still feel my youth viewing these videos. I wish I could go back,…
I was 12....the 1970s and being in New York were the best time of my life
me too
me too
I feel you, I weep for my youth,sometimes it's as if it was just yesterday and sometimes it feels like a thousand years has passed.
Me too I was 16
My era, where has time gone?

It is about leaving a bad environment and growing. We all need to leave our comfort zones.
In the best films we see the characters grow & evolve 🙏💞 I've always loved this song ! One of my favourites.💙🌹💙
bayridge is not the hood. esp now. BUT in the 70s most of nyc was burning or much dirtier. i still miss 90s nyc.@@Fan4cal

I much prefer them during their power ballad phase. When the bells tow and you win again.
They are remembered for far more than their disco era sound.

It's only natural for people to want a happy ending, especially since a lot of that is probably projection and wishful thinking where their own lives are concerned. We go watch a movie to take our mind off our problems and no one wants to leave the movie theatre feeling sad or wistful, so I guess it makes sense for most people to pretend that all the characters ended up living perfect lives in an alternate universe somewhere. But then you have people like me who don't necessarily try to overanalyze things, we just see things for what they are.
As a nine year old in '77 on Long Island, it was always a cool thrill to visit my amazing uncle in Brooklyn. Driving on the L.I.E. towards Manhattan on the weekend, turning on to the B.Q.E. just as the skyscrapers of NYC came into view. Dad would turn on 92 WKTU for some disco and we would feel the crazy vibe. I remember it was Christmastime, trimmed trees in so many homes, holiday lights in Bensonhurst ablaze in every window it seemed. Cugines walking around with slick hair and gold chains, my cousins getting ready to hit the disco after dinner...and that Saturday Night Fever album sitting on the Panasonic turntable. All of the cousins had a listening party before we ate and we knew that this album was something very special. As a nine year old I could almost feel the hormones in the air as my cousins girlfriends came over before they all departed for the club...man I never wished more in my life to be an 18 year old. Everyone has hair like Farrah Faucett and they were wearing tight polyester...and the scent of heavy cologne and perfume was intoxicating. My cousin Mark was accompanying his younger sister and I understood why...her delicious girlfriends. I felt like I had been drugged. I almost understood what the hell was going on but I wish I could bottle that feeling up and take the energy of Brooklyn, winter of '77 with me forever. luckily the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack did that for me and that's as good as it gets...
Memories.. Our inner city neighborhoods
True poetry .
Poetry of the distant past , luckily it was captured on film/ Vinyl
👌
Thank you for a very well written memory. I am your age. I had just turned 10 when this movie came out in December 1977. I was lucky enough to have my parent to take me in the theater to see it. The movie and music was a craze then. I was too for the discos. I would love to have been born ten years earlier like 1957 and seen the early disco days of 1975 and all the way to 1979. Studio 54 must have been sick with people wearing coke sports s as necklaces in the discos. But I loved the dancing and colorful lights. It was an era that was the perfect follow up to the psychedelic colorful 1960’s Woodstock culture - it had that sense of community.
But anyway this movie was based on an article I think from 1975 or 76 in New York magazine by a writer Nick Cohn who wrote about the Brooklyn guidos and the disco culture of the mid 1970’s.
Wow nicely said ! Wish we could go back in time ! If only ! I love this sound track ! Every song was gold ! This was amazing sound track tell this day ! Boy I was in love with John Travolta back then . I was only 7 or 8 I believe . But I remember . That sound track ! One of my favorites of all time !
I was born in 76 grew up in Bensonhurst. 86th n 20th where the cars went up and down under the El.
I miss those times so much.. especially the holidays and the Italian bakeries.
One of THE GREATEST love songs EVER
❤️
AMEN TO THAT!!!
Ending scene and bridge scene are the best in the movie.
+ubiquitousdiabolus Yep I remember being 12 and I remember this scene was my fav the best to me... the soundtrack was incredible!
Agree 1000%.
Agree 100%. I love these scenes.
That sunrise over Manhattan is breathtaking!
Speaking of the Twin Towers, there is footage from 9/11 where you can hear this song playing over the loudspeakers in the plaza as the towers are burning.

That moment you grow apart from your friends. He knew it, they knew it. Moving on isn’t always a bad thing. Most people stay stuck in their lives through fear. This is worse than never leaving.
He was mad Annette let his dumb friends fuck
@@kingsports1113 yeah but he was also inside her wanted to get pregnant by him but he did not want to be a father
Yep, Tony did a lot of changing & growing mainly b/c of Stephanie.
Tony did not grow part from his friends. Nothing ever changed with him. His friend either committed suicide or had a very bad accident and is now dead. The young lady that loved him, is now ruined! Yet, all he can think about is some pu...that he wanted that he didn’t seem to be able to get it. I love the movie myself but a very bad message not a good one and not romantic.
@@neo7566 That’s the point is do any changing all you could think about is getting some pu... from Stephanie.
What a era movie and the Bee gees
Happy days 👍🇬🇧
I was 18 years old when I saw this in the theaters. I don’t think I blinked the entire time I was watching. Completely mesmerized. The soundtrack alone was out of this world. Totally shocked that Vinnie Barbarino from welcome back Kotter cleaned up so well. John Travolta’s transformation was impressive. 👀👀
The reason it didn’t win movie of the year was because Star Wars came out the same year.
The time forever frozen in my mind. My heart is still feeling the vibes. ❤️❤️❤️
Hello Veronica, how are you doing, hope you had a great day?
I grew up there and lived that at the exact same time of this film
New York New York
Amazing memories
when New York was awesome now its a woke soulless wasteland
Bar none, ONE OF THE GREATEST MOVIES EVER!
1:46 it’s kind of ominous how the Twin Towers appear in this scene, and just 24 years later, How Deep is your Love would be one of the last songs played at the World Trade Center on 9/11
The TWIN TOWERS in the background scenes in this movie and every other movie or TV show opens up the wounds all over again. 💔
An absolute masterpiece of a film. We will never again see a film made that will reach people at such an emotional level
The music and the dancing were. The rest of the movie was morbid. If it wasn't for the Bee Gees, this movie won't have been a hit.
One of THE MOST BEAUTIFUL combination's of Film Clip & Song.... EVER
Those transition edits utilising the dance moves, are absolute perfection. Brilliantly done!!
A classic. ...great era to live through musically.
I thank God i lived in that absoluut FREE time, everybody was happy..... there is nobody take me this time of my life!
Ik ben God dankbaar dat ik deze tijd ervaren heb, iedereen was blij en niemand kan ons dat afnemen!
Mf Weert mooi
Simple life of the 1970s. Work and see your friends on the weekends
I was 16. What a great era. There was so much hope in the air for a better world. For an end to all wars, sickness, hunger and all human misery.
Yes! The keyword was Hope. Good things were happening all around. Today's world seems hopeless, as do it's young. There is no joy in these Un-United States. Hope has become Hate. It is not a good time to be alive.
This film beats 'Grease' hands down. The values are eternal - respect yourself and others.
Brilliant movie. Went a deeper than disco dancing.
Thanks for posting this! I was there in 1977. My great uncle served in WWII and settled in NYC for good after the war ended. I spent a lot of time walking the streets around his Manhattan apartment and all over NYC. The images in this video take me back in time and make me feel young and present in a world that I loved. Thanks again!
I've been so lucky to visit this amazing City many times now and every time I'm on the Subway I get this song in my head
I was 14 yrs old when this movie came out and it only seems like yesterday. I remember buying the sat night fever album, at kmart. Took it home and wore it out on my dad's record player. Oh, what I would do to go back to this time and be young again, naive and innocent about the world.
I wasn’t alive then but I would love to go back to New York in 1977 for a day
God , please I pray for this Nation The United States , the People , in crisis and trying to get back on on track . I pray for the leaders of this Nation , that you guide them in the way they should go for the People , secured state 🇺🇸🌏
This Movie is a Time Capsule that captured that era the late 70's on film, froze it, this is what we wore, in those days, the music that we listened to, it was cool then, a joke to those that did'nt live in that era or wear the clothes, you really misses out, it was pure magic. The Music wasen't mean sprited sand dead like it is today, it was all about Love, it was alive, it made you feel good and happy. This Movie was so real and good, I liked the entire Movie, but its this last scene where Tony was feeling the very real hurt and confusion and clarity from the loss of his Friend, the one that looked up to him, in this instance Tony wants to change and grow up. In that Room, by the Window, that morning, the Brick walls, the sunlight and the still shot of the two in the window trying to start again, new. How deep is your Love?
Willie Fufu the movie kinda makes it look cool... most of the time, in the beginning the Stephanie character looked dopey in her introductory dance scenes, and I didn't understand what the tony character was so smitten by... As the movie went on she grew on me though.
perfectly said. I turned 18 that year. this was us. fell in love. she broke my heart. always dressed to the nines with my pack of boros always in my pocket. so glad I grew up when I did.
Beautiful said - Grazie
Exactly! I was lucky to actually Lived this in the 70's.
Me too
my favorite movie of all time.Travolta will always be Tony Manero.
And Danny Zucco..
Best scene in the movie I always cry during this scene reason it was a very sentimental ending and the song goes nice with it. He knew what he did was wrong and he was man enough to go to her place and apologize to her which she forgave him and saved their friendship as they remain friends anyone got a tissue for me
Gene Siskel the movie critic said this was the greatest movie ever made and this scene in particular the best he ever seen. Look it up if you don't believe me. Funny thing is I agree with him.
Ka Boom - Even though the scene is cut in this video LOL
u are so right my best part also that I keep playing over and over priceless
Sadiyq Phd yep me to I play it over and over hahaha. The bad part is she knows he likes her after all they been through lol
It's a shame the sequel didn't follow more in its footsteps.
Saw that movie 15 times, still love it❤
I’m about the same as you. Poor Annette she tried.
I LOVE THIS SONG SO MUCH!! IT'S SO ROMANTIC AND SPECIAL TO ME ❤❤😍😍🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
Still listening in 2020. My favorite scene
Excellent song and movie from those days bring me great memories and sad ones. That woman represented the many self centered women I met during those days who were simply full of themselves.
Esta cena final marcou minha vida, assisti este filme tinha 15 anos, hoje estou com 61 anos e não me esqueço e me emociono toda vez que assisto.
This track is the only slow song that I've never tired of. It's absolutely beautiful. I've chosen it for my funeral.
Realy😔😔😔 God bless you🙏❤
John Travolta, the legend. Right here, sigh...
CLASSICS NEVER DIE
growing up, in the Bronx anytime I am alone on the train late of night, I always think back to Tony's ride to Manhattan, We take the train everywhere, I love SNF for it's colors and cameras movements, you're film really captures so much emotions, I watch these videos often thinking about my good friends on Pelham Parkway, my father, for myself the film is timeless, just sad they didnt make a real sequel
I love this song. I remember watching Saturday Night Fever for the first time 10 years ago. I was still in high school at the time. When I listen to this song with the different clips of Saturday Night Fever together, it just brings back memories of when I first enjoyed the Bee Gees songs from this movie including the movie itself. 2:26-2:42 is my favorite scene of seeing Tony and Stephanie together and also my favorite part of the song.
This scene is so moving 😥
I was 7 years old when this movie came out and my mom bought the album. Great soundtrack all the way around. Thanks for introducing to great music, ma.
Brilliant memories
Brilliant indeed
Flatbush and Flatlands ... so many adorable Karen Goreys and street characters... all gone now...I hate what has been taken from us by these asshole elites and handed to people that should have stayed home ...there I said it...
I will never ever forget when I first watched the subway scene and first heard this song as a kid. It was shown on TV in Hong Kong in the early 90’s. This song has been my no.1 favorite ever since. Then I moved to Brooklyn NY in the late 90’s, what a dream came true! What simple happiness that was for me
Hermoso tema de la película ❤ sábado fiebre x la noche ❤😢😮😊
This is song is a classic the video clip from the film is perfect..
I Really truly love this Song
Thank you for this Beautiful song..
Frazzled after an exausting seven-hour flight to Newark, I played this tune on my headphones riding the Amtrack into NYC. It eased my soul.
Everyone's soul is eased getting out of Newark....
Great times back then,so miss those days
The bee gees are everything!!!😊
best days of our lives!
Música que te traen gratos recuerdo de tu juventud cuando podía salir a cualquier hora sin temor, tiempo que de seamos que volviera pero todo tiene un principio y un fin y de nosotros yego pero tiempo como esto nunca habrá que viva los 80
I ALWAYS cry during this scene.
will always remain in the history of music will never fade
I Love the old New York ❤❤it's the best 😊
The college days of early 90/91 when a lot where listening to techno and rap, I stumbled on this cassette album after watching the movie SNF. Boy it took me a different way of life as in the movie. Unfortunately my days a student didn’t last as I had settled down in 93. Looking back was a eye opener for myself and the sounds of the late 70’s bee-geese.
my parents were teenagers in NY when this movie + soundtrack came out, its still my mom's favorite
This song instantly brings me back 45 years just like I'm right back in that time *weird*
Love ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Disco days the very best days of our lives
00:38 RR train long gone, but not forgotten.
Brooklyn in 1977 before the hipsters and the transplants. Awesome! I wasn't born at the time yet nor did I live in NYC but it's nice to see what Brooklyn looked like in those days. I can imagine the nostalgia of the Brooklynites who grew up in that era when they watch this movie. The shots of the Brooklyn bridge and the Manhattan skyline are iconic!
Of course, it is so poignant and tragic to see the outlines of The Twin Towers and to know, now, what happened to them and to the innocents within...
jsphat81 yes but there was also every drug that you can think of and more violence than today in New york
was very crazy times. summer of 77 was historic. 18 at year. Yankees. blackout. son of sam. drugs. garbage everywhere. big hair. always dressed to impress. everyone smoked. so many drugs. clubs every night. so glad I grew up then. was magical.
Speaking of the Twin Towers, there is footage from 9/11 where you can hear this song playing over the loudspeakers in the plaza as the towers are burning.

I love this video, song, and also the movie too! A+💯
Best Love Song
I was born in 1988 hearing this music it take me back in time when making music it took talent to compose lyrics. I wish my generation could make music and lyric as the past generation.
Handsome as ever love you John Travolta
Those were the good old days. Nothing like the terrible times we are in now
😍😍😍 so perfekt..I love this song..forever..and ever...
Tempi che mi danno ancora sensazioni uniche ho 63 anni e posso dire quelle voci dei Bee Gees mi resteranno sempre nel cuore
1:29 the face of frustration, grief of a man when they lose hope of conquering the love of their life ... that expression is unique in men truly in love.
It is about leaving a bad environment and growing. We all need to leave our comfort zones. Went by the 53rd Street station so many times.
eu amo esse filme e essa música, já assisti várias e várias vezes, e sei que assistirei outras e outras vezes.
used to hear this classic with my parents, watching they dancing. good old times. thank you
Recuerdo cuando era muy pequeña, con mi papá veía esta película y cada vez que salía la escena del tren lloraba tanto sin saber de que se trataba la película, más bien era por la música y la manera en que la actuación se juntaban, hacían un ambiente muy triste y ahora que soy una adolescente entiendo realmente la historia y el sentimentalismo de la película y me hace llorar aún más :'(
Genesis, como q todos nuestros sentidos c integran, con estas escenas
Toda la razón del mundo tenes amiga
Los amigos se van unos y vienen otros
Es un momento difícil y muy duro pero ese gesto al tomarse de la mano y ese beso con el que termina la película son bellos
@@carlagslongoria96 es una escena muy profunda que te llega al corazón y toca el alma imposible no emocionarse
As a 21 year old i can say it gives me such Nostalgia to an Era my Eyes have Never Seen.
Nuestra Generación fue muuuy afortunada al crecer escuchando los Beatles , pero también los Bee Gees siguieron después dejando una huella imborrable con su música y la película Fiebre de Sábado por la noche nos deleitó con sus canciones 😢
A new day is dawning over midtown manhatten after the night at 2001 Odyssey in bayridge Brooklyn.....tony goes to Stephanie's apartment to be with her 👍😁 great ending in Saturday night fever 👍🤎
The best movie ever Those days r over sad
my favorite movie of all time.Travolta will always be Tony Manero.
all time favorite
Para los que creen en el amor profundo y verdadero , es este tema.
This is such a beautiful song I think I'll watch the movie 🍿🍿🍿 just to hear the BEE Gees sing. I just wish I had a partner to snuggle with
Love this movie and song
