Staying Alive by a country mile.

There’s an R&B version of TLS that I don’t mind, but it’s not a favorite and I particularly dislike The Bee Gees version.

TLS by a country mile.

"Stayin' Alive" is great, but TLS might be their greatest song, their greatest musical performance and their greatest vocal performance. Solarskope once declared it his favorite song of all time, but let's not hold that against it (or for it, for that matter).

"TLS" is one of the great songs; "SA" is one of the great records.

I might slightly prefer "SA", but there is a lot of early stuff ("Kilburn Towers", "If I Only Had My Mind..." etc.) that I love as much or more than their fantastic middle stuff.

TLS. I've heard the song performed by other artists for years, but it wasn't until about a month ago that I heard The Bee Gees' recording. I'd say I prefer PP Arnold's take on it.

I think think this is basically right.

I’m a song guy, to I’ll go with TLS. It’s quite a statement to make to believe that the person you love doesn’t even know what it’s like to feel it for someone else.
