Great song. I used to own a 45 rpm of the Bee Gees' version, which I never even knew they had released until about 8 years ago. Don't know why their version didn't make it onto the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack. Sadly, the US Postal Service lost it along with all my other 45's when I had them shipped cross country. MFers. | |

Classic 70s track. IIRC, she also played Mary Magdelene in the film version of Jesus Christ Superstar. Good night, sweet Prince | 7 June 1958 - 21 April 2016

The producers of the movie were gonna use the Bee Gees version,but they decided that the song should come from a woman's point of view.They wanted this song to represent Annette's love for Tony.So a new version was recorded by Yvonne Elliman,produced by Freddie Perren.
Here's the Bee Gees version.... | |

I think Yvonne's version is superior.The production by Freddie Perren is on point. | |

Wasn't born when it came out though it's my mom's favourite and I have the 45 through her. Loooooove this song, Yvonne's version. When I discovered it, I played it on repeat for sometime, and could really relate it to someone I loved and feel the emotions. I love the simplicity of her voice as well, there is a genuine quality to it. | |
