Emotion (Samantha Sang Song)
"Emotion" is a 1977 single and LP recorded by Australian pop singer Samantha Sang for the Private Stock label. Written by Bee Gees members Barry & Robin Gibb and produced by Barry (who also provide backing vocals), the song was Sang's only hit single, reaching number three on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1978. It was intended for use in the 1977 film Saturday Night Fever, but ended up being featured in the film The Stud (1978) starring Joan Collins.
Also in 1978, Emotion was used as the B-side of Johnny Mathis and Deniece Williams' single "Too Much, Too Little, Too Late", which reached number one in the U.S.
The Bee Gees recorded their own version of the song and it was released on their 2001 collection titled Their Greatest Hits: The Record. They originally recorded the track in 1994 as part of an album called Love Songs which was never released.

Famous quotes containing the words emotion and/or sang:
“The best emotions to write out of are anger and fear or dread.... The least energizing emotion to write out of is admiration. It is very difficult to write out of because the basic feeling that goes with admiration is a passive contemplative mood.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
“Nearing again the legendary isle
Where sirens sang and mariners were skinned,
We wonder now what was there to beguile
That such stout fellows left their bones behind.”
—Cecil Day Lewis (1904–1972)
