"So, in the Bee Gees' version, they dictate terms to Stigwood, threatening to withhold their songs; in Coury's version, Stigwood dictates to them ..." - David N. Meyer, "The Bee Gees-The Biography," DC
"Barry characterized that as 'quite incorrect'. Since they disagree, no printed account or interview since agrees, either. Accounts also differ as to Stigwood's influence on the songwriting." - David N. Meyer, "The Bee Gees-The Biography," DC

Al Coury: "Robert would tell them what the scene was about and what tempo and rhythm to use, and the boys would write it in the way he wanted."

Mo: "We weren't 👀 at 'Fever' as a career 🚙. We got caught up in the Stigwood syndrome: Anyone he managed he also wanted involved in his 🎞 projects, as opposed to keeping them separate. He asked for songs, we gave him songs off [sic] what would have been our next studio album."
Acc. to the Bee Gees' autobio, Stigwood explained the plot & the boys leapt at the chance to create pure disco material. Both 'Night Fever' & 'Staying Alive' [sic] were written to align with the film's themes, and as possible titles." - DN Meyer, "The Bee Gees-The Biography," DC

Robin: "To me, 'Saturday Night Fever' sounds like some sleazy little porno film showing on the corner, second billed to a film called 'Suspender Belts'."
Maurice: "Then we wrote 'Night Fever' and Stigwood changed the movie's title to 'Saturday Night Fever' from 'Saturday Night'."

"The band told him there were too many songs out already called 'Saturday Night' & they wouldn't write another one. Barry told Stigwood to accept 'Stayin' Alive' or the Bee Gees wouldn't let him have their current songs for the movie." - DN Meyer, "The Bee Gees-The Biography," DC
