Olivia Newton John Xanadu Original Version Remastered HD (1980)
• Olivia Newton John Xan...
About
Dame Olivia Newton-John AC DBE was a British-born Australian singer, actress and activist. She was a four-time Grammy Award winner whose music career included five number-one hits and many other top-ten ... Wikipedia
Born: September 26, 1948, Cambridge, United Kingdom
actress singer - Hudba
She was a wonderful person. She loved animals and the planet. She has her own hospital for cancer. She will definitely be missed by so many people. RIP Olivia.
ONJ's attitude toward beating cancer is a very holistic common sense approach. When I was diagnosed, We just cut the piece out. Since my Doc HATES the chemo & radiation protocol, We created my own treatment plan and included some of ONJ's common sense approach. So Far 6 years CLEAR!
I'm so glad you brought that up...I get it. She was so much more than Grease. Older and Younger generations too often think of her only as that lady from the Grease musical. John Travolta had to cajole her into doing it, she thought she was too old to play a teenager at age 29 when they filmed it lol. that was such a laugh, she always looked great at any age. A person everyone should emulate in this world constantly falling apart.
@@thomastimlin1724 yeah, a few of the cast playing teens were older than her 2 or 3 I think I heard ...
IMO she's much like Betty White they were similar in how the approached the world and their love for animals and the planet, and how humble they were, 2 very special women...
Olivia's voice is fantastic, but also with the Electric Light Orchestra music, this song was absolutely a hit. It hits #1.
RIP dear and beautiful Olivia NJ.
Saw this movie on HBO* right after it left the theaters! I was 10. I had never heard ELO before, I don't think. But they sold me, with this soundtrack.
*In the early 80s, for those who don't know, HBO's main purpose was to show movies on heavy rotation that had been popular the previous year in theaters. "Home Box Office"
@@secularmonk5176 ELO was fantastic. Our favorite band with my father. Good times traveling hearing ELO's greatest hits, including this one with the beatiful Olivia NJ. Regards from Chile.
She was like walking sunshine! No one will ever come close to her unbelievable inner and outer beauty. R.I.P. sweet Olivia
This had me in tears guys. You hit it on the head, she just ALWAYS radiated joy.
Ya'll should do a movie reaction to Xanadu, lol. It was voted one of the worst movies ever made, but so many people, like myself, think it is one of the most magical and joyful things to behold, bad acting and ridiculous plot and all. Lol.
LOVE IT !
As a film, its absolutely horrible. The music, on the other hand, is amazing and uplifting and pure joy.
@@GrumpyOldGuyPlaysGames NO. Xanadu the movie was NOT "absolutely horrible" at all. It was not meant to be a serious drama. It was an uncomplicated light-hearted and pithy film from a more innocent time. View it as such. A blending of remarkable choreography and music tied together by a less accomplished script. Nothing more. Nothing less. There is a reason this sweet and campy musical has grown in time to become a bonafide cult classic. Just like Rocky Horror Picture Show. Male fans have even taken to calling themselves "Xana-dudes." Now that is true devotion. Forget the naysayers and misguided criticism: Xanadu will live on forever.
However, it lives on as a musical stage show (rollerskating and all.) So it couldn't be that terrible. :)
@@GrumpyOldGuyPlaysGames Its only "horrible" to those who dont appreciate the creativity.
@@GrumpyOldGuyPlaysGames I see what you did there! well done!
Australia still in mourning over the loss of Olivia. They lit up the Sydney Opera House in all pink as a tribute to her and her work for breast cancer research, I've never seen it look more beautiful. I guess we can now say with confidence there's the voice of an angel in heaven ♥
Yeah both Olivia and Judith is huge loss along with Archie. we mourn for a while 😊💔🇦🇺
Gosh, that would have been a sight to behold. I’m crying 😭
Gosh, she was so gorgeous. What a beautiful ray of sunshine and love Olivia was. Always in our hearts ❤️
That's Olivia. She was pure joy and love and had the biggest heart. For 30 years she has been raising money for the Olivia Newton John Cancer Research and Wellness Centre in Melbourne and was tireless in helping others even when she herself was so ill. The whole movie of Xanadu was a masterpiece of music and dancing. RIP Livvy
I saw Grease at the local movie.
Clearly ELO's music influence in the song. Marcella Bella in Italy did an italian cover of one of their song featured in the movie, which I recorded on VHS. Purchased/bought the vinyl
Yep she was just one in a million and I love that she ever lost her Aussie down to earth way of life or her Aussie accent.. 🧐😊🇦🇺💔😞
Aw your make me cry and i already cried after seeing the ending to the new ELVIS movie that was so emotional but yes it is sad.
@@aussiekat6379 and originally from Cambridge, England. Her grandfather a physician
Another Aussie legend, our girl Liv, R.I.P. Olivia you will be sadly missed, you did amazing work for people with cancer and your Cancer and wellness centre in Melbourne will help people well in to the future, Love you Liv.....
I like "Xanadu" and didn't think the movie was nearly as bad as the critics said. It was just a light, romantic, fantasy/sci-fi -type movie. Its soundtrack was terrific - Olivia Newton John and ELO. Some really great songs came from that movie! And we got to see Olivia dancing with Gene Kelly, a famous dancer from days long past. Thanks for this reaction, guys. Olivia was something very special.
You are right. Critics don't understand what is a romantic fantasy.
Olivia was my first crush, and this song is one of my favorite songs. It was written by Jeff Lynne and performed with Jeff Lynne and Electric Light Orchestra (he is the male background voice). The video is lifted from the first part of the finale of the movie, 'Xanadu' which starred Olivia, Michael Beck (best known for his role in the film 'The Warriors' in 1979), and Gene Kelly, the legendary actor-dancer-singer-choreographer-director of such films as 'Singin' In The Rain' and 'An American In Paris' in the 1950s. Xanadu, as a concept, is taken from Samuel Taylor Coleridge's poem "Kubla Khan: A Fragment".
"In Xanadu did Kubla Khan
A stately pleasure-dome decree:
Where Alph, the sacred river, ran
Through caverns measureless to man
Down to a sunless sea."
The movie was a bomb at the box office, but the soundtrack album with half of the songs by Olivia and half by ELO was a huge hit, and the movie is now one of those cult movies. I count it as one of my top-ten favorite movies of all time, but I know it's really not very good. But, as you can see from the video, it is so much fun...who cares?!?!
The choreography for the film was done by Kenny Ortega, who would go on to direct 'Dirty Dancing' with Patrick Swayze, Disney's 'The Newsies' with Christian Bale (pre-Batman), and the 'High School Musical' movies.
RIP, Livvy!!!
*Rob/Hunterz* You called it,Rob... Hunterz..He`s right..The name was based on Kublai Kahn`s Residence In China..It was almost Edenish in nature....Olivia Played Kira,a "Muse" of Zeus,That Tried to help Sonny Malone,(Beck)And Danny Mcguire (Kelly).....With their problems and their dreams!
4 months later I'm still crying.
My very first ever crush... such a gorgeous princess, beautiful inside and out. Forever adored and will be sadly missed, totally understand RockerJay's pain, same as bro... love you Olivia. X
RIP Olivia! She is now in her Xanadu!
growing up, Olivia was my first celebrity crush. Like Rocker Jay, I'm a metalhead, but have always loved her music, especially her early country stuff... believe it or not.
This was a clip from the movie "Xanadu". Olivia is a muse that comes to life from a mural to help an artist that is down and out. She helps him get his mojo back and pairs him with Gene Kelly (this was the last movie appearance of Mr. Kelly) and together they open a "roller disco" (thus the roller skaters you saw) and they named it "Xanadu". This video is the (shortened) ending scene of the movie. The movie wasn't very popular but the soundtrack was killer! This song was by ELO and featured Olivia on the lead vocals (if you listen closely to the music it has all of the ELO sound trademarks!). The vinyl record has ELO songs on one side and ONJ songs on the other! The Tubes also contributed to the movie and soundtrack.
The Xanadu album is fantastic. The movie is such an underated musical. I grew up watching Xanadu from 5 years old and was obsessed. The singing, the dancing, the skating, Gene Kelly (!) and Olivia, full of joy and THAT voice!! You have to watch the movie. The last scene that you are watching is actually longer and has more dance styles. It's such a fun film.
Dances styles:
Pop n lock (Crew was called Chain Reaction)
Ballroom
Latin
Contemporary
Jazz
Line dancing
Ballet - Tightrope walking!!!
(Performed by Albie Selznick)
Choreographers were Kenny Ortega, Russell Clarke & Jerry Trent.
Dame Olivia, born and raised in the England to a Welshman who worked for MI5, at one point at Bletchley Park on the top secret WW2 Enigma project, and a mother who escaped to UK with German family in 1933. A truly beautiful soul, RIP.
She was an angel on Earth, and when she died, the world stood still. Everyone in the entertainment industry and even heads of state and world leaders paused to show her love and respect. Her memorial service was one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen, like Olivia herself!
Farewell our lovely Olivia, a flashback to a more innocent time................................yes I cried too !
This movie Xanadu was a commercial flop at the time of its release, but on the internet era it blew up and it became a cult classic. This movie gave us Gene Kelly's last cinematic role, Olivia at her most gorgeous, the woman was an absolute vision as Kira, she also met and fell in love with Matt Lattanzi, father of her daughter Chloe while making this movie, if you watch closely you can see him dancing with an asian woman wearing like a purple blouse, and my favorite song by her is included in the amazing soundtrack which is "Magic", fantastic tune. Definitely dig deeper into her successful career, she's such an icon, literally everyone who's not a psycho loved her, and always will, including yours truly. Thank you for this cool reaction honoring her.
Bless you for geeking out on the dancing! That's freaking Gene Kelly!!!
This was a clip from the movie. The Electric Light Orchestra did the background music. John Farrar and Jeff Lynne wrote the song. It hit #1 in the US, Australia and I believe the UK.
Only Jeff Lynne wrote this song. John Farrar wrote all of the other ONJ songs in the movie "Xanadu". This was the only ELO and ONJ collaboration.
The whole album's songs are metaphysical, which is the relationship between the ego represented by the male singers in the songs and the Imagination represented by the angelic voice of Olivia Newton-John. The next time you hear the Xanadu album, hear it with this concept in mind.
Thank you Olivia for sharing your magical voice during your life journey, R.I.P.. 😇🔥❤️🔥😇
I miss Olivia Newton John. She was such an amazing singer. I got to go to 3 of her concerts and she was so amazing.
Aww man RIP Olivia...this got me right in the heart ...the world lost a beautiful and joyful soul...we were blessed.
Olivia was Australia's sweetheart. We can't believe she is gone; our whole nation is in mourning. The grief here is quite palpable... I'm so glad our government is planning to have a state funeral for her.
By the way, that is ELO playing the music and Jeff Lynne doing the backing vocals.
And Jeff wrote the song.
wow!!! had no idea... but totally makes sense hearing it back
Mind blown
Yess
@@IntyMichael The whole lp
OMG THANK YOU!! NOBODY ever reacts to this!! It's my FAVORITE of her songs. 🥰 My friends & I just LOVED roller-skating to this!
My Mom taught me the poem 'Kubla Khan', aka 'A Vision in a Dream: A Fragment' by Samuel Taylor Coleridge. She thought I should learn where the word Xanadu came from as she knew how much I LOVED the film. At a super young age I was a lover of all things mythology, Ancient Greece, poetry & Roller-Skating & she was a Major part of my learning about Most of these things.
Sadly Mom died suddenly last week. Watching this reminded me of these childhood memories. ❤ I just KNOW she'd LOVE to watch your joyful reaction to her songs as she thoroughly enjoyed Olivia. 😇
I loved the reaction! You guys really should watch the movie. It was really panned by critics, but if you go in with no expectations and just want to escape and have fun for 90 minutes, it's really a great time. The music is incredible. The basic premise is that 2 people from totally different generations decide to open a dance club together. You get lots of variety as far as styles of dancing and musical eras throughout the movie because of the difference in generations. There's a fun duet by Olivia and The Tubes that literally mixes the music of the generations (and could make for a fun reaction video). The tap dancing scene with Olivia and Gene Kelly is pretty special to watch. Olivia's song "Suspended In Time" is really beautiful and one of her lesser known gems (I would love to see you guys do a reaction to that song).
She never lost her beauty. I think I saw that Australia is having a state funeral for her. That's how much she means to that country. She was just such a kind, gentle soul. R.I.P.
It is a state memorial service in her original hometown of Melbourne in state of Victoria.
I think her niece Tottie Goldsmith has to organise it on behalf of the family. It feels weird as remember Tottie Goldsmith was in some girl band back in 80's and never really knew she was Olivia-Newton-John's niece all this time. Hope it provides some closure for their family.
She was an amazing part of my life...I have the Xanadu movie on VHS tape even lol. She's been on my itunes for years so I actually get to hear her music on a fairly regular basis and I still love singing along with it especially when this song comes on...definitely recommend the full movie. It's cheesy but that was that era and it was cheesy and fun for sure.
Thank you for the reaction, I'm so glad that Olivia could still bring joy to yourselves as a new audience, her spirit will live on and shine as bright as the neon in Xanadu! Gone but never forgotten.
This song comes from the film of the same name, Xanadu, which sadly did not receive much positive feedback from critics.
It's a fantasy film in which Olivia Newton-John plays Kira, a Greek Muse (goddess of literature, science, and the arts) who inspires two artists, Sonny Malone and Dany McGuire, to create a huge disco roller rink called "Xanadu".
The Xanadu soundtrack also features Electric Light Orchestra.
I saw it in the theater when it came out. I loved it.
@@StevenMichals0812 me too, on both counts. RIP ONJ.
@@waynehackney5812 Wasn't Gene Kelly in it too?
@@StevenMichals0812 Yep. Never seen the movie but blows my mind two icons from different eras meet up in the one movie.
I'm not a fan of musicals as movies so never wanted to watch Grease or this but certainly heard all the famous songs from Olivia Newton-John as a kid. I think her and someone else in this movie would later marry so even if the movie itself was nothing epic the fact it made probably head to her getting married. She only had one child which is her daughter Chloe from that marriage. Hope Chloe has friends and family look after her as she really lost a special person as her Mum.
R.I.P Oliva Newton-John
YES!! Olivia is pure JOY! The way she comes out in the beginning and is jumping and spinning, just so innocent and fun! Her light will be shining down on us forever from Xanadu! BTW ... Im also a Metalhead, so SHHH!!! I wont tell anyone you were here if you dont tell on me.
You just nailed the point of the movie! Bringing together all different styles into one place: Xanadu! ONJ is literally the muse that makes it happen. It’s a bit cheesy, but it’s WONDERFUL! Even has Gene Kelley in it. Excellent soundtrack. WATCH THE MOVIE! 😎
Beautiful talented Olivia ❤ Grease & Xanadu forever 🎉
She radiates joy in her happiest songs and pure melancholy in her sad songs. Check out I Honestly Love You, a live performance especially for a quieter ONJ.
Thanks for honoring her - her death broke my heart ❤️
Also 'Sam' - phenominal.
This is actually a pice of a movie called "Xanadu", I loved this movie too. It is a pity it did not do as well as Grease. It was probably the last time we saw Gene Kelly dance in a movie. RIP Olivia, we all miss you.
It was Gene's last film,though he lived another 15 years🎩
@@neilmcdonald9164 and to see him gliding on roller skates was priceless! So much style.
Olivia met her first hubby on the set of ‘Xanadu’. Matt Lattanzi was a dancer. RIP! Olivia. 😔❤️🇦🇺
Definitely watch the movie. Super cute and fun. Ms Olivia put out some excellent solo stuff, late 70's early 80's. "Magic", "Physical", "A Little More Love", all great tunes.
And early 70's as well. "Let Me Be There", "I Honestly Love You", "Have You Never Been Mellow", "Please Mr. Please", "If You Love Me (Let Me Know)". Great pre-Grease solo songs. All top 10, including 2 number ones.
It's not "you're the one that I love"
It's "you're the one that I want".
Y'all should do a movie reaction to GREASE!! ? It's such a classic! 🥰🥰
Olivia signing with ELO is a great combination. RIP Oliva!!
Olivia was just stunning in every possible way! It's interesting that you picked up on the different genres of dance right away! Xanadu was a musical movie that also featured Gene Kelly, and his era of dance was definitely prominent in the movie as well as the 80s style. He and Olivia have a great singing and dancing scene together! The movie was not a cinematic gem by any stretch of the imagination, but the soundtrack was fantastic!
Just as your requester, Olivia was my first celebrity crush, and even after all these years she was still on the list. I knew she was sick and was not long for this world, but when she passed I was devastated. Whenever a musical artist passes away, I am reminded of the chorus of Rock 'n Roll Heaven:
“If you believe in forever
Then life is just a one-night stand
If there's a rock n' roll heaven
Well, you know they've got a hell of a band…”
Imagine what music is being made right now with all the greats being there. Now, that Olivia Newton-John has joined the chorus, it was made that much sweeter. It makes me long for the great beyond just so I can be in the audience. We will all miss you here, rest well, Olivia.
Any gen x-er is feeling the loss of Olivia. She was the it girl in the 70s & 80s RIP ONJ
This was on cable all the time and I had a huge crush on her after I saw this as a kid. John did as well from an album cover of hers and was one of the reasons why she was his first pick to play Sandy in Grease. Plus she was so talented. Saw grease in the theatre with my parents as well and had the soundtrack on vinyl.
John Travolta had a crush on ONJ when he saw her on her 1974 album cover of "If You Love Me (Let Me Know). After seeing her first TV special in November 1976, he was convinced she would be the perfect Sandy. That TV special can be found on you tube and if you ever watch it, you can see why JT thought she would be perfect for "Grease".
"XANADU" came out on August 8, 1980. Olivia Newton-John was instantly my first crush at the tender age of five years old. This movie and its accompanying soundtrack just spoke to me. I loved it when others hated it. Xanadu was a love letter to the musicals of the 1940s, as well as the roller-disco craze of the late 1970s (which was on the way out in terms of societal popularity), and it introduced things that would go on to be influential in the early 1980s look and sound. It is my immediate go-to music and movie whenever I am in the depths of my depression (okay, sharing too much information). The timing of Ms. Newton-John's passing was completely bittersweet, as she passed from this mortal coil on August 8, 2022... the day and date of XANADU's 42 anniversary. May she rest in peace!
Your reaction to "Xanadu" made me smile throughout and you're both right; Olivia Newton-John makes you feel pure joy. "Xanadu" came out when I was 8 years old, and it made quite an impression on me. The song is one of my all-time favorites and I shamelessly adore the movie.
As others have said, you really owe it to yourselves to watch the movie, there are many great songs and the whole thing is uplifting.
The entire movie of Xanadu is guilty pleasure to watch. RIP Olivia
Travis, Olivia totally got you from 4.05 😁 R.I.P Olivia. 💖🌠
Yes, so much going on in this vid. Roller skating, hire wire performers, circus performers, ballroom and contemporary dancing. Famous handsome movie musical legend Gene Kelly was in the movie too. All songs were written by the great band ELO. 💞💞
I'm of the OG punk generation, and I went hardcore during it. Baby pin earring, mohawk. Ramones and the Pistols and everything. But Olivia was a lady, and I loved -- and still love -- her music.
Thank you so much for this beautiful reaction! I'm still devastated and never befor has any celebrity's death affected me that much! My youth has finally died!
Olivia is like a magical angelic muse who came here to raise the collective vibrational frequency. I would say she succeeded in this endeavor. Everyone who witnesses her captivating presence feels love and joy. You should watch her perform the song "Magic". It's very dreamy and pulls you into another world.
I saw this movie as a child and I can't remember anything about the movie but Olivia...lol
Jeff Lyn wrote this.he was know for his band ELO and Traveling Will buries (a super group)...A legend in rock and roll
E.L.O. music, the youngest Gibb brother Andy (R.I.P), The truly spectacularly talented Gene Kelly, the 80's and lovely Livvy...... all the good stuff. R.I.P. Olivia
That was Michael Beck not Andy Gibb. Although, he does look a lot like Andy.
So this isn't really a music video. This is actually the final scene from the movie XANADU, that Olivia starred in. The movie involves a Night club/Discotech and this final scene is the grand opening, hence all of the dancers and performers. This song is her and ELO which is where you get that very iconic sound of the song that Electric Light Orchestra is known for. Add in Olivia's amazing voice and the song is legendary. Like your requester, Olivia was my first crush when I was a young lad and I was truly hearbroken when I heard of her passing. It is an end of an era and it leaves a huge hole in my childhood. I will miss you forever Sandy! I'm forever Hopelessly Devoted to you!
she was so good! what a voice and beautiful to!
Olivia was and always will be loved by so many people for her inner beauty and her strength and resilience which allowed us to have her singing to us for many years. The movie is worth watching if only for the music track. Gene Kelly dancing was wonderful to watch also.
You immediately. picked up well on the pure joy. Olivia, in a power failure, could light up the room just with her smile. A total force of positivity. My generation is beside itself. she was so much more than just Grease, long before that, she was a 3 time Grammy winner, a totally rounded singer, even though she started out with "Country" music. That was the way she broke into the USA charts. she paid her show biz dues long before that in British and Australian TV shows etc. she covered jazz standards, folk and rock and country, pop, you name it. She was born in England but raised in Australia. A master singer, this is only the tip of the iceberg. She was about the song, not the diva opera. Watch the whole Xanadu movie...it weirdly interesting. Gene Kelly's last movie "[who's Gene Kelly?"]. it would have been a bigger movie but was somewhat disjointed. Jeff Lynn and ELO wrote/did a lot of the soundtrack. you need to dig deep into Olivia's songs and story to understand THIS is Not all she could do. She was the sweetest bad ass entertainer there ever was, no phony celebrity BS... Her father was a WWII hero, cracked the Japanese secret codes....most of all he kicked caner's ass for 30 years, set up a huge cancer clinic in Sidney Australia raising funds and putting in her own...she gave back what she received out of her celebrity status in spades. she sang this song in concerts decades later and still kicked butt, always looked great.
This is one of my favourite movies of all time.
I love you Olivia , I still can’t believe you’re gone 🥲🥲🥲❤️
Your description of the video clip managed to describe a large part of the movie Xanadu, which this video clip and song is from. Released in 1980,it's still one of the most wonderful movies I've ever watched. Pure joy 🥰
This wasn't just a music video, it was a clip from the movie _Xanadu (1980),_ starring Olivia Newton-John and Gene Kelly. Yes, _that_ Gene Kelly, of _Singing in the Rain (1958)_ fame, in his final motion picture role. One of the more memorable clips I'd love to see you react to is 'Whenever You're Away From Me', where the 68-year-old Kelly sings and dances with the 32-year-old Olivia. Screen magic!
This had me choked up bad. It all seems not real. Olivia left us with a huge void in our hearts. But yes she is and always will be beautiful graceful caring loving lady. I met her for the first time in 84. And I've met a lot of famous people. But Olivia just had that spirit about her that makes you clam and so happy. Olivia also makes it like your the famous one. Not her. She was always giddy and happy to meet her fans. She makes it like it's a honor to have met you. Then saw her again and my other all time favorite number one person. Olivia's best friend Marie Osmond. The both together is amazing. And Olivia had a huge since of humor. Her and Marie together gracks people up. Olivia was the most precious gift that God has ever Givin us. Olivia is a true angel. RIP sweet Livvie. You will never be forgotten. We honestly love you our sweet song bird.
What a vocal range!! So beautiful!!
I was lucky enough to go to a Xanadu concert compliments of my parents. She sounded just like this live. RIP beautiful Olivia 🕊🌸💕
I don't know if anyone else has said anything but this song is actually the title song for a movie of the same name. It's one of my favorites and I think you would enjoy it.
You actually get it! Olivia radiated pure love and joy that is what made so many people fall in love with her. By the way I'm loving your hair !
Olivia "radiated pure joy". So true.
Not too many artists are such a joy to watch because they give off such positivity.
There is one is becoming know who also radiates positivity everywhere she goes. It is Danielia Villarreal of The Warning. The Wolf Hunterz have reacted to several of their videos. Dany, as she is known, is the lead singer and guitarist. She has a sparkling, goofy personality that brightens up your day. Check her and the band if you like rock music and look for videos of her little live chats or "midnight concerts" where she sings music that is not rock. She is a great person and, although only 22, is likely to be an inspiration like Olivia is.
Not only a world class talent, but a beautiful woman, she will be missed.
Kenny Ortega (High School Musical) choreographed this film. The soundtrack is a mixture of old and new music and dancing. This is the edited version of the finale. You really need to see the complete final to appreciate Olivia's vocal range. Really enjoyed your reaction to this.❤❤❤
And "Dirty Dancing" as well. Way ahead of its time...
Choreographed by one of the greatest choreographers of all time, in fact. Michael Jackson This Is It , Dirty Dancing, and High School Musical are just a few more from Kenny Ortega’s portfolio. Amd the music behind her was written and performed by Jeff Lynne and ELO. They hated getting sucked into doing music for this film but as time went on Xanadu became one of Lynne’s favorite songs he wrote.
Olivia Newron John was really a very lovely person.
This i's from the dance movie Xanadu, which also starred dance movie legend Gene Kelly. The band and backing viOcals on this song are ELO, who wrote part of the movie soundtrack. One of my favorite movies! If you watch the movie you might recognize the opening scène which was copied as a more recent music video.
The ELO and ONJ soundtrack on Xanadu saves the whole movie. Also, the Xanadu soundtrack on vinyl is one of the rarest and most valuable albums in the world.
This was my first time watching this channel. I was actually very impressed by the reaction. The guy had many thoughtful insights to offer and did a better job of explaining ONJ's appeal after 15 seconds of listening/watching than I've ever heard anyone express. Both reactors also have such infectious and genuine smiles. I will be back to see what you two have to say about other songs (or movies) in the future.
My thoughts as well. I am curious to see more of their reactions.
When ONJ died,I wanted to cry.She was a bright light in our lives.I felt like I lost a family member.
Also my fave Olivia Newton John song! She's so beautiful in this! RIP!
She has been my idol since I was 10! This song is from the movie by the same name and the video is actually from the end of the movie. It’s a must watch! Highly recommended! Then move from there to her videos from her Physical album then her Greatest Hits Volume 2! 🤘👍
She was a treasure,...such beauty & grace, even through all of her pain. I am certain her family, close friends & animals will miss her presence intensely!! So glad you did a review on her!! Another good song by her is "Magic", one of many. And Travis,...you have to watch "Grease"...I think you would really enjoy it!!!
I follow her daughter on Instagram and she said when Olivia passed the dogs were barking and the horses running. So yea they know and they feel the loss. 💔💔💔
One of my favourite songs ever.
RIP Beautiful Olivia! I know that was Gene Kelly who was famous for the musical "Singing In The Rain" as well as many other Dance/ Musicals. He is the man right at the beginning of the video, and I did see some 40's style dancing going on, not sure the correct name. I also saw some Disco dancing.
Olivia was special. Xanadu was a flop as a movie (though my wife loved it) but the soundtrack track album and singles were very very successful.
"Critically" flopped, but I refuse to believe it as a flop.💕🤘😎
The only thing actually bad about the movie was the acting of the main dude. He was completely wooden.
I have never understood why people don't like it. I loved it then and love it now
Grease is one of the best and happy movies ever!!!
Olivia forever💖💖💖💖
This video is a movie clip that is close to the end of the movie.
Xanadu 1980
She is Australian and spent time there from time to time. One time was the opening ceremony of the Sydney 2000 Olympics. Liv was 51 or 52 then and she and John Farnham sang to the crowd and walked within the athletes DARE TO DREAM. Well worth looking at (on youtube).
I know how it feels to be devastated by the loss of an idol. It's often someone you grew up listening to and investing in, and it feels like a part of your life has gone - George Michael was my hero, for example. I was so sad when Olivia passed; she was great. I love this song and I went to see Xanadu when it came out in the cinema when I was just 10! Rest in peace lovely lady.
Thanks for a great reaction. Do a reaction video to Travis watching Grease!!! x
Talented and very easy on the eyes.
If you like dancing you should watch the entire movie Xanadu. The soundtrack and the dancing are fantastic.
The story is silly but, as you said, full of joy.
I would love to watch you both react to the movie grease, or Xanadu! "whenever you're away from me" her duet with gene Kelly is amazing.
LOVEDLOVED LOVED the fact you had genuine smiles throughout the entire video.. soooo amazing
This is not just a video, this is a film…..and the background music and vocals are done by ELO.
This period of ELOs career was so influential. You can hear them in bands like Daft Punk and Justice
Can't stop smiling this is way cool will be missed love her voice Susie said everything keep rocking and looking good doing it
Shes so sweet. hehehe. I forget who said "I knew Doris Day before she was a virgin" but Yes she was sweet and genuine but still knew what fun was. More than most of us. I will never foget her. Party in heaven pretty girl.
Everybody stand up to sing the 80s anthem.
In the movie, they had (what we call a) mash-up with a hard rock band and a 40s era big band. It was a cool scene. search Xanadu dancin' (6:49 version) and it will pop up.
Listen/watch the entire soundtrack and movie of “Xanadu” featuring Olivia Newton John, and the music of ELO. The opening “ the dance of the muses (the mythical nine sisters of Greek mythology)” (Olivia is one of the nine sisters as well)…will give you goosebumps!!!
