Covers and Sampling
In 1977, Candi Staton released a version of this song that peaked at #6 on the United Kingdom Singles Chart in late Summer of that year. It omitted the slow-paced middle-eight which broke up the tempo of the Bee Gees' original and may have contributed to its failure in the UK.
In 1998, the song was sampled on the DMX track "The Convo" from the album It's Dark and Hell Is Hot.
In 2008, the song was sampled by hip-hop producer Jake One for his song How We Ride for his album White Van Music.
Saturday Night Live uses the song as the theme to its sketch, "The Barry Gibb Talk Show", but with different lyrics.
