{1}"Grease" is the title song for the musical motion picture, Grease, which was released on June 16, 1978, and based on the Broadway theatrical version. The song was featured twice on the film's soundtrack; as the first track, and reprised as the final track. It became a #1 single in the United States on August 26, 1978.

{2}The Bee Gees were a singing trio of brothers — Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb. The multiple award-winning group was successful for most of its forty years of recording music, with two distinct periods of success: as a harmonic "soft rock" act in the late 1960s and early 1970s, and as the foremost stars of the disco music era in the late 1970s. Only Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Michael Jackson, Garth Brooks and Paul McCartney have outsold the Bee Gees.

{3}Frankie Valli (born May 3, 1934 as Francis Stephen Castelluccio) scored 29 Top 40 hits with The 4 Seasons, one Top 40 hit under The 4 Seasons' alias of 'The Wonder Who?' and nine Top 40 hits as a solo artist.
