Frankie Valli ~ Grease (1978).wmv

„Grease“ is a song written by Barry Gibb and performed by Frankie Valli as the title song for the 1978 musical motion picture Grease, which was based on the 1971 stage play Grease. Valli released the song, which celebrates the greaser lifestyle, as a single in May 1978; it sold over seven million copies worldwide and appeared twice on the film’s soundtrack, first as the opening track and again as the closing track. „Grease“ was one of four songs written specifically for the film that had not been in the stage production.
„Grease“ became a number-one single in the United States in 1978 and also reached number forty on the R&B charts in the same year. Later in 1978, Valli released a follow-up album, the title of which—Frankie Valli… Is the Word—echoes the „grease is the word“ lyric contained in the chorus of „Grease“. „Grease“ was Valli’s final Top 40 hit.
