The song was recorded by Yvonne Elliman for the Saturday Nighttime Fever soundtrack.

Although Yvonne Elliman had cut her 1976 album, Love Me, with producer Freddie Perren, who was a major force in the disco movement (Perren had produced the Sylvers' 1976 number 1 "Boogie Fever" and would soon collaborate with Gloria Gaynor on the disco anthem "I Volition Survive"), Love Me had showcased Elliman not as a disco artist simply rather every bit a popular ballad vocalizer, notably on the title cut, a Barry Gibb composition that Elliman turned into an international hit. It was originally intended that Elliman's contribution to the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack would be another carol written by the Gibb brothers, "How Deep Is Your Love".

Meanwhile, the Bee Gees recorded their own version of "If I Can't Have Y'all" for the film. However, RSO Records chairman and Bee Gees manager Robert Stigwood, who was executive-producing the Sabbatum Night Fever album, dictated that the Bee Gees tape "How Deep Is Your Love" and Elliman exist given the disco-style "If I Can't Have You".

Stigwood'south decisions proved a success as the soundtrack'southward start single, the Bee Gees' version of the ballad "How Deep Is Your Love", shot to number one, followed to the pinnacle spot by the soundtrack'southward second and 3rd singles, as well past the Gibb brothers, "Stayin' Alive" and "Night Fever". Elliman's "If I Tin can't Take You lot", produced by Perren, was released as the fourth single off the Sat Nighttime Fever album in February 1978. Billboard Mag praised Elliman's "powerful" vocal functioning.^[two] Greenbacks Box said that it was "popular music with a very danceable beat" and that Elliman's vocal was unique enough that it would not create defoliation with any Bee Gees recording.^[3] Every bit the first single off the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack not performed by the Bee Gees, "If I Can't Have Y'all" would become the fourth number 1 striking from the album, reaching the number one spot on the US Hot 100 in Billboard dated May xiii, 1978, ending an eight-week number 1 tenure past "Night Fever". "If I Tin can't Have Y'all" was the fourth consecutive US number 1 to be co-written past Barry Gibb, and the RSO record characterization'south sixth consecutive number ane on the U.s. Hot 100. The B-side of the Elliman unmarried was a song from the Love Me album, "Adept Sign", a composition by Melissa Manchester and Carole Bayer Sager which had also served as the B-side of Elliman's hit "Hello Stranger".

Far from the success going to Elliman'southward head or giving her ideas of following upwardly the sudden disco success with a deeper foray into the genre, a contemporary interview by journalist Peter J. Boyer found Elliman dismissive of her number 1 hit, referring to it in conversation only casually every bit "that current affair from Saturday Dark Fever". In spite of the coattail success she's had with "If I Can't Have You", information technology's a disco song and Elliman decided her broad, husky vocals are all-time suited elsewhere. "If I Can't Have You" was featured on Elliman's February 1978 album release Night Flight, which, apart from that song, was produced past Robert Appère and was non disco-oriented. No song from Night Flight was issued as a follow-up single to "If I Can't Have You", Elliman's adjacent single being a rock ballad entitled "Savannah" which failed to consolidate Elliman's potential mainstream stardom. Elliman did return to disco music in 1979 with "Love Pains" which returned her to the US Top xl ane more time earlier she dropped out of the music scene in the 1980s.

Elliman's "If I Tin't Have You lot" was as well featured in the 1999 picture show Big Daddy too as on its soundtrack album.

Disquisitional reception [edit]

Larry Picture from Billboard called information technology a "NRGetic rendition", adding it as "a delicious guilty pleasure, oozing with over-the-top strings and angelic backing vocals. Kim works her programme for all it's worth—and we're ownership it bigtime."^[21] Pan-European magazine Music & Media commented, "The brothers Gibb—a.k.a. the Bee Gees—wrote this song for Yvonne Elliman in the heyday of disco in the end of the '70s and Wilde recycles the song in the dance era. The kids will absolutely become wild(e) on this 1."^[22] Alan Jones from Music Week gave the vocal three out of five, writing that "this lacklustre embrace lacks the finesse of the original and it won't be one of Wilde'southward biggest hits."^[23]
