Hi,

sorry my Hollandisch is not so good. ;-)

Ha HAAhaaa. Als ik (45 Jahre) den Song zum ersten mal gehört habe war ich ein teen.

Und das Lied war sooooo cool.

Mein Junge (10 Jahre) sagt, was ist das für eine loser Music. :-)

Aber wir haben viel Spass bei dem Song, getanzt und viel gelacht. :-)))

Liebe Grüße aus Bremerhaven,

(Kloodsack) Andreas. :-)))))))

I cant get the image of Richard Simmons out of my head because he used this song to death in his workout videos which my mom exercised to when I was a child.

[xBlackout718x]

@nankerism not so young anymore, hes like 60 lol. and he's married so no he doesnt like testicles in or around his mouth.

[xBlackout718x]

Everytime I listen to this I always think he says "Shitcase and an old guitar."

[jrzaia]

@xBlackout718x Everytime I listen to this I always think he says "Porn, porn, porn to be alive"

[xBlackout718x]

@jrzaia Yeah same

[DonnyPepquoi]

@xBlackout718x hilarious!!!! Brilliant !!!

[tommybass40]

When this first came out, me and all my friends thought this absolutely sucked. Those were the "disco sucks" days. However, time changes your heart and now when I hear this, it brings back great memories from the late 70's.

[UmbaldoProductions]

Patrick Hernandez, if you pause at 0:16, had a face like that of Paul McCartney. E o cabelo do Cauby Peixoto

[jellodust]

Love this used to play it on my Seas kit speakers way back in 1979 from one of those sexualy liberated scandinavian countries !

They make a mean drive unit and crossover Too.....

So good in fact Audio note uk use a Version of the Seas 23 in the E loudspeaker.

Patrick Hernandez i hope you are STILL CANING IT...

DEMASIADO FINO ESA CANCION

[lolabeans4001]

This Fabulous song must be ready to make another comeback judging from all of the comments left this past week and today. The younger generation must be longing for real music and great times which were the 70's. Let's hope that kids these days find a way to have as much fun as we did during the disco era! Wish you were there!

[beatlesgirl3]

Hahahahahahahahahahaha! I love this video!!!

[horarwgt]

"Born To be Alive" was a great record, but far from being the biggest hit of the disco era. Many disco records, from "YMCA" and "Hot Stuff" to "Stayin' Alive" and "Night Fever" vastly outsold it. But do you really want to know what the biggest hit of the disco era (1973-80) really was? Believe it or not, based on sales and airplay alone, it was -- not a disco record at all. It was, according to Joel Whitburn's "Top Pop Singles" book, the 1977 Debby Boone single "You Light Up My Life."

[sphinxrising58]

@horarwgt Are you trying to say that Boone outsold and outplayed Donna Summers ( Queen of disco ), lol

[horarwgt]

@sphinxrising58 -- Debby Boone's "You Light Up My Life" 45 did in fact outsell any of Donna Summer's individual singles released in the '70s. Remember, though, that Debby had only ONE huge 45. During the '70s, Donna scored 15 hits, nine of which went gold or platinum. (Plus 19 since.) So cumulatively, adding in ALL of Donna's '70s 45s, she of course outsold Debby. Other '70s ladies outsold Donna, though: Gladys Knight, Diana Ross, Olivia Newton-John and the queen of them all, Karen Carpenter.

[offal]

lol i thought he was from bristol, going by the accent of course

[horarwgt]

Patrick Hernandez was born April 6, 1949 in Paris France. "Born To be Alive" turned out to be his only hit -- a million-seller which peaked at #16 over a nineteen week U.S. chart run starting June 29, 1979. The international success of "Born To Be Alive" sparked a U.S. tour which featured several backup dancers. One of those was a young lady better known today as Madonna.

[tommieparch]

@horarwgt his only hit . turned out to be the biggest song of the disco era tho. & it even had a message!/ also his song ended the disco era, as 1980 brought in new wave
