About The Song
Frankie Valli’s “Grease” is a song written by Barry Gibb and recorded by Valli in May 1978. It serves as the theme song for the hit movie “Grease,” released in 1978. Despite its association with the disco era, “Grease” carries a timeless message about staying true to oneself amidst societal pressures. The soundtrack was released two months prior to the film’s release. The song peaked at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart and spent a total of 22 weeks on the chart. Valli performed “Grease” on various platforms, including the BBC TV show “Top Of The Pops” in September 1978.
The song reflects the nostalgic ambiance of the 1950s American youth culture, addressing themes such as teenage pregnancy, youth rebellion, peer pressure, and gang violence. While seemingly about high school love, it delves into broader themes like simplicity, innocence, self-acceptance, and authenticity. The lyrics evoke a sense of nostalgia for a bygone era, capturing the essence of youthful exuberance and the trials of growing up. In summary, “Grease” encapsulates more than just a love story; it’s a timeless anthem of youth, authenticity, and the cultural shifts of its time.

Lyrics
I solve my problems and I see the light
We got a lovin’ thing, we gotta feed it right
There ain’t no danger we can go too far
We start believing now that we can be who we are
Grease is the word
They think our love is just a growing pain
Why don’t they understand, it’s just a crying shame
Their lips are lying, only real is real
We stop the fight right now, we got to be what we feel
Grease is the word
(Grease is the word, is the word that you heard)
It’s got a groove, it’s got a meaning
Grease is the time, is the place, is the motion
Grease is the way we are feeling
We take the pressure and we throw away
Conventionality belongs to yesterday
There is a chance that we can make it so far
We start believing now that we can be who we are
Grease is the word
(Grease is the word, is the word that you heard)
It’s got a groove, it’s got a meaning
Grease is the time, is the place, is the motion
Now, grease is the way we are feeling
This is a life of illusion
Wrapped up in trouble
Laced with confusion
What are we doing here?
We take the pressure and we throw away
Conventionality belongs to yesterday
There is a chance that we can make it so far
We start believing now that we can be who we are (be who we are)
Grease is the word
(Grease is the word, is the word that you heard)
It’s got a groove, it’s got a meaning
Grease is the time, is the place, is the motion
Now, grease is the way we are feeling
(Grease is the word, is the word that you heard)
It’s got a groove, it’s got a meaning
Grease is the time, is the place, is the motion
Now, grease is the way we are feeling
Grease is the word
Is the word…
