About the song
“More Than a Woman” is a memorable song by the Bee Gees, a musical group consisting of Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb. This song is part of the soundtrack for the 1977 film *Saturday Night Fever*, which helped to define the disco era. It was a significant hit for the Bee Gees, who began recording it in early 1977 in France, then continued the process in Miami and finally completed it in Los Angeles.
The song holds a special place in the hearts of many as it was a regular feature in the Bee Gees’ live performances from 1977 until Maurice Gibb’s passing in 2003. It often shared the stage with their other hit “Night Fever,” showcasing the group’s signature style and harmonies. While it was not released as a single in the United States or the United Kingdom, it found success in countries like Italy and Australia, where it became widely known and loved.
In addition to its original release, “More Than a Woman” has been included on various Bee Gees compilations, such as *Tales from the Brothers Gibb* and *Their Greatest Hits: The Record*. However, the first British editions of *Their Greatest Hits: The Record* had a minor audio issue which was later corrected.
The song’s enduring popularity is also evident from its 1997 live version included in the Bee Gees’ *One Night Only* concert DVD and CD. In 2021, British DJ SG Lewis created a new remix of the song, which gained attention due to a trend on TikTok. Additionally, “More Than a Woman” was featured in a *Glee* episode titled “Saturday Night Gleever,” performed by Cory Monteith, Naya Rivera, and Chris Colfer.
This classic track continues to be celebrated and enjoyed by audiences, embodying the spirit of the disco era and the timeless appeal of the Bee Gees’ music.

Lyrics
Oh, girl, I’ve known you very well
I’ve seen you growing every day
I never really looked before
But now you take my breath away
Suddenly you’re in my life
Part of everything I do
You got me working day and night
Just tryin’ to keep a hold on you
Here in your arms I found my paradise
My only chance for happiness
And if I lose you now, I think I would die
Oh, say you’ll always be my baby, we can make it shine
We can take forever, just a minute at a time
More than a woman
More than a woman to me
More than a woman
More than a woman to me
There are stories old and true
Of people so in love like you and me
And I can see myself
Let history repeat itself
Reflecting how I feel for you
Thinking ’bout those people then
I know that in a thousand years
I’d fall in love with you again
This is the only way that we should fly
This is the only way to go
And if I lose your love, I know I would die
Oh, say you’ll always be my baby, we can make it shine
We can take forever, just a minute at a time
More than a woman
More than a woman to me
More than a woman (ooh, my baby)
More than a woman to me
Hey
More than a woman
More than a woman to me (oh, so much more)
More than a woman (oh, baby)
More than a woman to me
More than a woman
More than a woman to me
More than a woman
More than a woman to me
More than a woman
