An Unlikely Appreciation

Remember the anti-smoking campaigns in the 80s? I may have been in primary school but I remembered bits & pieces of the commercials. I remembered 1 especially where there were girls roller skating. This girl got upset with her bf becoz he was smoking & she ignored him. It was only when he put out the cigarette that she forgave him. The commercial made use of the then very popular song, "Staying Alive" by the Bee Gees. I hated it. They are guys right? Why are they singing like that? I hated it for many years.

I did eventually warm up to them. & it happened only in the recent years. Jeff's a fan of Bee Gees. I would used to tease him by imitating "Staying Alive" in a fake voice. It was a slow process of introducing me to them coz I was very resistant. But now I can safely say they have many songs which I love. & yes, "Staying Alive" is 1 of them.
