The “It Girl” Soundtrack of the 1970s

Nothing screamed Disco Era like “Stayin’ Alive.” The Bee Gees dropped it in December 1977 on the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack, and it ruled the Billboard Hot 100 for four weeks. That instantly recognizable bassline and strut-ready beat made it the heartbeat of every dance floor. For 70s It girls, the song was a statement: nightlife, fashion, and attitude all wrapped into a sequined anthem.
