"Nights on Broadway" is a song by the Bee Gees for the Main Course album in 1975. The second single release from the album, it immediately followed their number-one hit "Jive Talkin'".
"Nights on Broadway" reached number seven on the American Billboard Hot 100 singles chart, giving the Bee Gees back-to-back top 10 hits for the first time in seven years (since 1968).
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. |
