Beegees are always incredible, but Frank Stallone and Cynthia Rhodes more than hold their own on 'Staying Alive' soundtrack...

We all know 'Far From Over.' It's practically as beloved as 'Frosty the Snowman' and 'Happy Birthday,' but it's the Tony Manero/Jackie/British Laura love-triangle inspired jams that have held sway over my heart for as long as I can remember, and 'Moody Girl' has to be number one on that list. Although in this vid you only hear an abridged/slightly more up-tempo version than the original, it's helpful to set the scene for Frank's all too apt lyrical genius:

Oh, this heart-breaker absolutely slays me...I'll never forget that well-time tear streaming down her cheek...a tribute to Cynthia's genuine method acting, certainly - lest we forget Sly Stallone's enviable directing prowess...

Dear Frank and Cynthia, I'm never gonna give you up, either...
