They are standing on the railroad tracks and dilapidated balconies lip-synching the chorus "ah" parts, and they're sellin' it, baby. Ah, ah, ah, ah, stayin' alive-stayin' alive. They're effecting "ah" by jiggling their lower jaws and clenching their butt cheeks. Barry in particular. You can tell by looking at his tight white pants. It's so 70's. It's awesome. He truly had great hair, too. My favorite Gibb thing during the “video” for Stayin Alive (were they called videos back then?).

I guess everyone has some sort of association with them, be it the proto-metalheads and rock 'n rollers who despised them, the disco kings and queens (sometimes both in one!) who idolized them or the fringe dwellers who caught it from both sides of the pop-culture divide. Y'know... the ones who had Blue Oyster Cult AND Village People in their dinky plastic cassette carry-all. But you know what the Bee Gees remind me most of?  That's right. A day and age where there were more chicks with big hair than Waffle Houses in Georgia (and that's a LOT). BIG HAIR IS THE BOMB!!

I see, said the blind man! Dave Marsh, are you reading this? Thanks, BD! That Clive Anderson clip is great, and I guess I can see why Barry got fed up. It's got to be tiring doing interviews where a talk-show host keeps busting your balls and acts like you're supposed to go along with it. And it seems like the Bee Gees can take a joke, but some days are better than others, I suppose. “Oh we can try to understand The New York Times’ effect on maaaan …”
