It was a pretty big hit. I remember it getting a lot of radio play and definitely in the discos when I was a young stud getting ready to graduate high school. Damn, time passes fast..

From Wikipedia: "The US release contained a remixed version of "Born to Be Alive" and found great success, peaking in the US Billboard Hot Dance Club Play chart at #1 and on the Billboard Hot 100 at #16. It sold over one million copies in the US."
