}} "Night Fever" is a disco song, written and performed by the Bee Gees. It first appeared on the soundtrack to ''Saturday Night Fever''. Producer Robert Stigwood wanted to call the film ''Saturday Night'', but singer Robin Gibb expressed hesitation at the title. Stigwood liked the title ''Night Fever'' but was wary of marketing a movie with that name. The B-side was a live version of "Down the Road" in 1977, previously released on ''Here at Last... Bee Gees... Live''. ==Inspiration and writing== When Bee Gees manager Robert Stigwood was producing a movie about a New York disco scene, the working title for the film at that time was ''Saturday Night'' as Stigwood asked the group to write a song using that name as a title, but the Bee Gees thought it was a dumb title, but they had already written a song called "Night Fever". The group convinced Stigwood to use that and change the film to ''Saturday Night Fever''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Night Fever by Bee Gees )〕 The string intro of "Night Fever" was inspired by "Theme from ''A Summer Place''" by Percy Faith, according to keyboardist Blue Weaver when he was performing it one morning at the sessions and Barry Gibb walked in and heard the new idea for this song.〔 As Weaver explains the history behind this song: Barry Gibb, Robin Gibb and Maurice Gibb completed the lyrics for "Night Fever" sitting on a staircase (reminiscent of their first international hit "New York Mining Disaster 1941" which was written also in a staircase back in 1967).〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Night Fever」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
