09 * 10 * 18 * Dance With Me * Peter Brown
11 * 04 * 14 * You're the One That I Want * John Travolta & Olivia Newton-John
12 * 12 * 16 * Two Out of Three Ain't Bad * Meat Loaf
25 * 30 * 08 * Only the Good Die Young * Billy Joel
26 * 31 * 06 * Grease * Frankie Valli
32 * 41 * 11 * Chattanooga Choo Choo * Tuxedo Junction




I love "Dance With Me","You're The One That I Want","Only The Good Die Young" (one of the few Billy Joel songs that I really like) and "Grease".

OK, I'll be the first to admit I like "Take a Chance on Me."



For some reason,I was never able to get into Abba.I do like their 1977 hit "Dancin' Queen",though.

I love Grease, the movie and soundtrack. These two singles were probably my least favorite from the film. Had they released There Are Worse Things I Could Do, I woulda been glued to my radio. That's some tragic drama right there.

Oh hell yeah..."There Are Worse Things I Could Do" is the most underrated song from that album/movie! I love that song! Stockard Channing sounds great.


I could stay home....every night
wait around for Mister Right
take cold showers everyday
and throw my life away
on a dream that won't come true



That definitely should have been a single music


trivia: when filming began,it was decided that the four main stars of the movie (John Travolta,Olivia Newton-John,Stockard Channing and Jeff Conaway) would each have at least one solo song to sing in the movie.John got to sing "Sandy",Olivia got to sing "Hopelessly Devoted To You",Stockard got to sing "There Are Worse Things I Could Do" and Jeff got to sing.....nothing?! confuse

the original plan was for him to sing "Greased Lightning",that was supposed to HIS song,his dream sequence/fantasy.But instead,they gave it to Travolta,as if he didn't already have enough to sing.Kinda unfair to poor Kenickie,but star power speaks volumes,I guess lol
