I just heard “Stayin Alive” as a choir acapella type thing on a car-safety commercial. It sounded really good. Does anyone know who sings this version so I can look it up on Napster?

Are you on /shrooms again? 😃

I have no idea, doesn’t sound like Rockapella (most prominent group). I could put some of my old cheesy college group’s stuff on Napster for you if you’re looking for some real torture.

They’re doing a revival of the musical now (without the ultra-high, probably-patented Bee Gees squeakathon). You might be able to find the current cast recording of the song. It sounded a cappela when I heard the revival commercial…
