David Shire's songs hold up well over time, in particular the soaring "Manhattan Skyline."

Triva note-the song "Disco Duck" appears in the TV version of the movie but not on the soundtrack nor on the theatrical version. Extra scenes were added to keep the running time the same after R-rated scenes were cut for TV.

"Night Fever" seemed strange at the time, like two songs grafted together. The analysis by Rockner helps to explain it.
