Shadow Dancing

We are the podcast that is reacting and breaking down episodes of Babylon 5.

We just watched Shadow Dancing, which means-

... obviously that you start-

Spence, Spence, Spence, Spence, Spence

Yeah.

[laughs]

What is it? Shadow dancing.

And this is a

song that...

Not that many people still remember.

It was number one.

I like the Commodores and some of their ballads are really tuneful.

Easy probably is my favourite of all time.

It's just such a relaxing song.

So, you know, whatever mood I'm in, if I listen to that, it just chills me out.

Let's hear for the boy.

Shadow Dancing, number two.

Gibb, Andy Gibb, written, of course, by the brothers Gibb.

And number one, You're the One That I Want, Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta.

And I just can't impress upon you how popular the Bee Gees were at their peak.

I think at one point in 78 of the top ten songs, eight were directly related, written, performed by the Bee Gees, including songs by Andy Gibb, Shadow Dancing, And then Frankie Valli was singing Grease around that time, which was a song that the Bee Gees wrote as well too.

Barry Gibb wrote or co-wrote seven songs to reach number one during 1978 alone for 14 consecutive weeks in 78.

The Billboard number one record was either the Bee Gees or Andy Gibb.
