I'm not the sort that cries for every famous person who dies, only twice in my life and I'm 64. Once was Princess Diana and the other one is you. You had an amazing, beautiful clear voice. Rest now. RIP X
"Plus,besides her being a great person,and not a stuck up celebrity who thinks their s**t don't stink,and the fact she lost her life to Cancer,(As did my sister) and didn't die from drugs,alcohol,being shot,etc. like a lot of celebrities did!" "It was sad for Laura Brannigan,and Farah Faucet as well,illnesses..."
Thank You for saying that. I am the same age. I didn't cry for Diana but my wife did and I understood why. Moreso as time has gone by. For Olivia though I cried. Silly really. I loved her from the first time I saw her. She never knew I even existed. She was a beautiful, talented, intelligent, kind Lady. She oozed class. A smile like sunshine. I have never seen, and never will see, a more perfect woman than Olivia Newton John. RIP Beautiful One. 💗 Love You Forever. X
I took have only cried twice, Princess Diana and Olivia's death has hit the soul hard. I met this beautiful lady in 82-83. She was the nicest person I ever met.
@@alleadmin3294you cried only because 10's of millions of Americans alive then in 1971 and now grew up or old with her like many many other singers, celebrities, actors, politicians etc....

There's only 2 sure things in life for everyone and that's death and taxes!😢⚰️🤑💵💰to IRS.
I fell in puppy love with Olivia Newton John as a 7 year old boy in 1971 and my love has grown over the years. I'm not ashamed to admit that I cried the day she passed away. RIP Angel
Yes indeed. It was truly 1971! Wow, what a different country it was compared to today in 2023! This stunningly beautiful woman had me in a daze back in that summer of 1971. Miss her and that country we all alive then and now lived. Nixon in the white house, 30¢ a gallon gasoline, Willard the movie in theaters all over USA, 10¢ candy bars, Cokes Pepsi's RC colas in returnable glass bottles for 5¢ a bottle, 10¢ Hostess cupcakes fruit pies Ding Dongs etc... and a Big Mac, Whopper, Jumbo Jack for a measly 55¢. If you lived it, you know what I mean. A time never to return again ever. I was 12!
That cute dance used to be called 'the funky chicken'. I don't know if she came up with it, but it was popular back then. It was also popular to make fun of that dance, and many did, but I liked it when she did it :)
I was 12 when this came out in '71. I can't believe that She's GONE 😭💔✝️🙏🏽🕊️☮️✌🏽. This is the FIRST song I remember her singing. I Always LOVED it and Her. This is Year'22 is just UNBELIEVABLE as to how many people we have Lost. Olivia you are no longer in any pain. MAY YOU REST IN HEAVENLY PEACE ✌🏽☮️🕊️✝️🙏🏽💔😭....
I heard this song everyday while in hospital for a month in 1971, I never got tired of hearing her voice, unfortunately no TV to watch her sing it. She was a beautiful ray of sunshine. Thank God we got to live in a time to appreciate this beautiful human being. She gave so much of herself to humanity, a wonderful legacy to leave behind. God 🙏 bless you Livie. She being
Love this song! I remember having her 8 track and cassette tapes. I had a poster of her on my wall. She was truly amazing, incredible and beautiful inside and out. RIP Olivia ❤❤❤
Don't forget that she was an IMMENSE force behind one of Australia's most prominent cancer treatment centers. And that was in spite of Scotty from management. OMJ Cancer is a well-respected operation which wouldn't have existed without her. I'm not a fan of privatized medicine, but look at her influence across ALL of Australian cancer care. What an extraordinary woman. I'd rather have you here Olivia, but as an American I'm grateful and impressed for what you achieved in the medical world.
I was just a little girl riding her bicycle with my transistor radio attached listening, singing my heart out to ALL of her music way before she became “Sandy” She will always be Olivia to me. Sandy was every girls favorite make believe, pretend,,, A true CLASS ACT. 🎭♥️🌹🎶 Rest in Heavenly peace. I pray she had a relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ and Heavens Gates opened up for her. 🕊💙😪
I first heard this song on the jukebox in 1971. I was mesmerized by her voice and when I found out what she looked like that I've been hooked ever since. Love you Livy!!
the title says it all for me.....If not for you Olivia....I shall really miss you and feel lucky that we still have your music for those sad points of our lives
Great song written by Robert Zimmerman. It's hard to believe the world fell in love with this real life angel almost 50 years ago...where has the time gone.
@@fasteddie9529 -- That would make an interesting search. And may she rest in peace. Hard to deal with watching these great videos one day, and she's gone the next. Saw an interview with her a few months back and she looked and sounded fine, especially for someone fighting cancer.
At Fort Bragg in 1971 this was what we all wished was waiting at home for us. So lovely in voice and in face. My wife of 44 years may still be threatened.
@@dans9463 -- Actually the dance she's doing (or at least part of it), was called 'the funky chicken'. I don't know if she came up with it, but it was kind of popular back then, and it was also popular to make fun of it. :)

Those were the days. It can never really be conveyed to someone that didn't live it.
She was incredible at flirting with the camera and audience in such a innocent way.
ovely
and her natural dark blond hair - lovely.
"A beautiful,incredible way of flirting,with her signature smile!"🎶👏♥️♥️💔
She was in control luv and will dearly missed.
Her music was played in our house growing up long before Grease. One of the greatest singers of all time, RIP!!
unlike many singers today... no gimmicks, no auto tune, no nothing ... other than pure talent and a classy beautiful human being
What a cute dance from an absolutely beautiful girl with an amazing smile and a great voice. Youth is a wonderful thing.

It is isn't it, shame it doesn't last.
The very first time I heard this song in ‘71, I instantly fell in love with the song and her. I was only 10 years old.
Olivia passing tore me up too. I was devastated.
George Harrison song and they both are working on duets somewhere familiar.
@@gregsmith9401 it’s actually a Bob Dylan song also covered by George Harrison.
Welcome to the club Joe
ABSOLUTELY STUNNING AND INCREDIBLELY BEAUTIFUL
in both looks and voice.
She looks so innocent and happy.... ❤❤ 70's and 80's ❤❤
Have just heard the news that we have lost Olivia Newton-John. She was the best of the best RIP. I honestly loved you ONJ.

Sounds like an angel and looks like one too
Rest In Peace, Beautiful, And Multi-Talented Singer, Dancer And Actress Olivia Newton-John . . .
R.I.P. Lady . . . :-)
Probably the most beautiful woman in the world
Not probably, definitely 😊
@@icooper5236 YES, you're right
She was so beautiful.
Olivia my favourite song ever and Im 71
She's the type of girl every single guy, deep inside, would love to have.
..and all the ladies wanted to be Her...If Not For You, Olivia!!
I love her since 1972, when I was 6 years old.
She‘s the sweetest girl the world has ever seen.
Greetings from a German Fan!
R.I.P Olivia, thank you for the great songs, this one means a lot of things for me and it will always be my favourite
I just heard too. Sad day. This video shows her doing her best 'funky chicken' dance.
Her first chart record on Billboard's Hot 100 made it to #25 in the summer of 1971. Great memories. RIP Ms. Newton-John.
Written by Nobel laureate Bob Dylan.
Loved all her music, this one is so lovely, may she rest in peace

The most beautiful singer of all time.
RIP Sweet lady. You put up a long but brave fight with cancer. You will be missed.
I have watched this performance by Olivia numerous times and it never gets old. What a talent.
the best
My favourite Olivia song, such memories of my youth. RIP Olivia xx
Love this song! I remember having her 8 track and cassette tapes. I had a poster of her on my wall. She was truly amazing, incredible and beautiful inside and out. RIP Olivia ❤❤❤
Takes me back to being 14 years old in the summer of 1971.
Thanks for bringing happiness Olivia. RIP
Same here. The best years of my life set to Olivia's beautiful song.
She makes me smile and have a warm feeling ! Never had forever !

RIP Olivia. You were truly a legend and will be sorely missed. Your talent, beauty, style and grace were one of a kind.
totally pure & classy... hard to find many like her these days, if at all
I was just a little girl riding her bicycle with my transistor radio attached listening, singing my heart out to ALL of her music way before she became “Sandy” She will always be Olivia to me. Sandy was every girls favorite make believe, pretend,,, A true CLASS ACT. 🎭♥️🌹🎶
Rest in Heavenly peace. I pray she had a relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ and Heavens Gates opened up for her. 🕊💙😪
I miss those old tinny AM radios
Pure class. Never will there be another that will compare.
Was there ever a more beautiful woman? I say no.
Olivia & the blond agnetha from ABBA my two all time favorite beauties😏
She was truly was a legend who's music and movies will live on
Someone who will always will be remembered with true affection and love
A rare look at the real Olivia, and they don't come any better than this.
Goodbye to a fabulous icon! RIP Olivia - you lit up my childhood!

A beautiful presence that extended beyond the camera. RIP

Beautiful and Dreamy.
Bet Mr Dylan never dreamed his song would get such special treatment.
RIP Olivia. My first concert in 1972 was you... thank you for your excellence and talent.
R.I.P. Olivia. Thanks for sharing your time and talent with us.💔
So sad to lose Olivia tonight - you were my life! xxx
Great live performance from a young ONJ.Perfect vocals on a song very suited for her talent.
I mean, I grew up hearing her! This. "If You Love Me" and so much more.
When life was simple and the world seemed a much nicer place to live...
Yes, but where the hell have those 47 years gone? Seems like only yesterday. Great song.
Me too. But hopefully we've many more years left!
Yes indeed.
It was, and it was !!
bbcowan hope times
My fav of hers sad to hear the news today ..rest in peace ..God bless your kind soul🎵🙏
I have this song on a cassette somewhere, she was beautiful, such a sweet voice...
R.I.P. She was a GREAT artist.
Ive been through about 20 ONJ videos on youtube the last few days and not a single 1 had a dislike. Testament to the one of a kind angel she was
I just love this video! She`s soooo cute!! Life`s a fast journey. R.I.P
Great song written by Robert Zimmerman. It's hard to believe the world fell in love with this real life angel almost 50 years ago...where has the time gone.
That's Robert Allen Zimmerman, but much better known as Bob Dylan.
Would be interesting to know what Bob thought of Olivia's version of this awesome tune.
@@fasteddie9529 -- That would make an interesting search. And may she rest in peace. Hard to deal with watching these great videos one day, and she's gone the next. Saw an interview with her a few months back and she looked and sounded fine, especially for someone fighting cancer.
@@johnnybop64 I saw that interview, also. So sad. I feel fortunate I got to see her in concert five times from 1999-2012.
@@fasteddie9529 That version Olivia sings was George Harrison's version of Bob's song....so beautiful>
Why is this fun to watch? It's because she was having fun.
Miss you, and think of you all the time. Olivia Newton-John. World class legend.
One of my favorite ONJ songs! So simple, yet so beautiful! ❤️
Grew up to her music as i am 59. don't really bother me when someone famous passes but her passing really did upset me.
Olivia was pure class,and stunning. ❤
What a genius Bob Dylan is to write such great songs. Great version.
Innocence beauty simple angelic voice thank God for this blessing
I was a DJ in 71 in Maxiems. This was always the song I always ended my gig with. It always has fond memories for me.
Simpler Times and better days.
Very well said my friend... (Lee Krick)
Very well said!!!
Yes!!
Too bad she couldn't stay that way. The globalists ruined her. So sad.
@@donnussbaum4234 yes, she was pure magic then. Pure and magical.
Back when America was great. ;-)
This to me, was her at her best - innocent, before Hollywood.
RIP OLIVIA NEWTON JOHN.
Thank you for ALL the music and memories.
They will last FOREVER.
She was a beautiful human being. Such a loss. Godbless Olivia.
Aaah.1971?I was 17 and in love with Olivia.
R.I.P. Olivia. Thank you for the great songs and performances you bring us.
Great song, vocals, guitar, sweet song
I'll forever remember you, Dame Olivia. RIP
Nice song Olivia..you were bopping all the time .. R.IP. beautiful ❤😂😊
RIP...You were one of the best creations of God.....
That awkward dancing really makes her so innocent and adorable.
I agree it was awkward but that was the late 60's and 70's style of dancing.
She's doing fine. This was not about dancing
And the same dance moves that Cliff Richard makes
Awkward?? She was only 23. Theres a certain charm about it
She is so beautiful
Love you and miss you, Olivia.
God bless you and RIP. 🙏
So good
I fell in love with her, since I was 10 years old, and still in love with her 💕
I love the swinging sixties dance moves holding over to 1971. :)
I love her, because her voice is so dear!
Thank you very much!
At Fort Bragg in 1971 this was what we all wished was waiting at home for us. So lovely in voice and in face. My wife of 44 years may still be threatened.
She sings from her ❤️ thanks Olivia sharing your heart on the air ways👍
Great expressions, great vocals and adorable dance moves. Makes me smile EVERY time 😀😀
INDEED
I third that emotion! The girl had it all❣
The wonderful spontaneous moves , coming from her and not a choreographer

The passing of time is so sad.
There is no such thing
It really is.
A true masterpiece. And a great song too.
She could sing 🎶 Olivia knew how to takecontrol of the camera 📸 🎥 beautiful beautiful beautiful you will be missed.R.I.P.Angle.
So beautiful sweet her voice like heaven and the lyrics so romantic
Olivia Newton-John, Karen Carpenter, Patsy Cline, there will not be any to compare. Thank you Ladies, we miss you all so much.
Although they are still with us I would add Dolly Parton and Linda Ronstadt to that list.
@@edwardpate6128 I would agree.
Aretha!
Loretta Lynn, Tammy Wynette, Crystal Gail.
Absolutely love the awkward innocent dancing.
That song hit me hard😢
One of her best songs.
just makes you happy to watch this
Hi Lori hope you're okay?
… I had a second grade teacher that was the spitting image of Olivia… best year I ever had…
I know this song is a revival. But to me this is one of her best songs.
Olivia, if not for you, my world is full of deserts~~~!!!
She is so charming and lovely on this..natural
So beautiful romantic love song
I grew up with her she has won the greatest voices ever if not the greatest
RIP Dame Olivia Newton-John. I'll always love you.
My first ONJ memory is probably this song. I was a wee tacker, probably 5 or 6. RIP ONJ
real beatiful woman
RIP Olivia -taken far too early
Loved Olivia in her country days, she made some great album's, but she grew up and she was even better
