The BeeGees can SAVE YOUR LIFE

From CNN, a story of a woman who performed chest compressions on her husband after he suffered cardiac arrest, saving his life. She hadn't ever taken a CPR class, but she remembered seeing a public-service announcement that instructed people to do chest compressions to the tune of the BeeGees' song "Stayin' Alive." She kept it up for 15 minutes...which is a long time to have that song in your head.

Apparently, chest compressions alone, without mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, may keep a person alive long enough for emergency responders to intervene and save their life.

Doctors also suggest chest compressions to the tune of "Another One Bites the Dust."

Your choice.
