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.
