Olivia was a hit maker long before Grease. An English-Australian singer who made it big in the U.S. in 1971 with "If Not For You". Soon to follow were "Have You Never Been Mellow", "I Honestly Love You", "Let Me Be There", and two duets with Andy Gibb, "Rest Your Love on Me" and "I Can't Help It". She was the image of love and light in the 70s. RIP Lovely Olivia🌹
I Can't Help it was after Grease.
I wish she had never teamed up with Andy.
NO offense, but so odd to me, that people didn't know OLIVIA NEWTON JOHN was a singer and HUGE in the 70s and 80s... every music fan of any genre, any age, SHOULD know this in my personal opinion...
I agree. I forgive them because they are young.
Kids/millennials know very little about "our music" unless they had older siblings or cool parents. Poor deprived souls. Their music is crap these days in comparison
They should know a lot of people don't, that's like you know and Justin Bieber songs
Yeah that's like you know and Justin Bieber
She's had global sales of over 100 million records, making her one of the best-selling music artists from the second half of the 20th century to the present.
You're damn right....Olivia was perfect!!! She was my first crush. What a beautiful person...inside and out! 😍
Yeah, I totally agree ❤
RIP Olivia, always loved. ❤️🙏
She was a singer first and foremost and has quite a back catalogue of music
Olivia was nominated for 12 Grammys and won 4.
oh my!That's phenomenal.
When I was a teenager I had the HUGEST crush on her! This song right here was and still is my favorite from her. She actually started out as a Country singer. She had a decades long battle with cancer. I’m VERY saddened by her passing.
Every teenage boy in the 70’s had a crush on her.
@@malachymcguinness6246 I was a preteen in the early 70s and had a crush on her. Everyone loved her, everyone did. How rare and special is that
Yep she sang and acted before grease in Australia. This song was from a movie after Grease called Xanadu. It was a movie set in the world of rioller skating . Imagine how hard it would be to follow grease . She did and some call it a flop . I have a copy and I loved it
I’d go with many of the suggestions that are out there. Would also do “Suddenly”. A duet with her and Sir Cliff Richard…
Great duet. Also "I Can't help It" with Andy Gibb. She was also the female voice on John Denver's "Fly Away"
Olivia had a very true, pure, clear voice, like light. Another great ONJ song is "Come on Over" - the emotion is very strong. I'm glad you're taking the opportunity to listen to her. She's terrific!!
I grew up in Tucson, Arizona in the 60s and 70s, and was a fan of Linda Ronstadt and Olivia Newton John. But back then she was a Country Pop crossover. My favorite song at the time was “Please Mr Please”.
Magic is from the movie she did after Greace called Xanadu which was a bomb of a movie with a fantastic soundtrack. One side is ONJ and the other side of the soundtrack is ELO. She and ELO combine on a song that is the epic theme to the move called Xanadu that was a big hit as well. She started in music before her acting career.
'A Little More Love' was released the same year as "Grease". I know it was a huge hit for her and it might be my favorite song of hers. My mom had her first hit album in the house when I was 3-4 years old and when I looked at it I was really taken by her beauty on the cover, just standing in a green pasteur.....wow, the 70's were fun.
"A Little More Love" was quite a big hit single in 1978, as was the album it came from, the aptly-titled, Totally Hot. The 2010 digital HD Japanese remaster of that album, sounds incredible. Her voice, esp. on that song, sounds crisp, clear, and powerful. Between that single and "You're The One That I Want" and "Hopelessly Devoted To You", the woman was GOLD in 1978 and onward...
One of my favourites too.
She was a singer who could act, not an actress who could sing.
Ty
The feeling I get from her when she performs songs like this is this weird approach to sexuality without ever being blatantly sexual. It's like when you're in the 3rd grade and you have a crush on your teacher but you're still too young to experience all the aspects of what "attraction" might entail. There is a free innocence that overrides the rest of your chemistry, so that all you really feel most is the swelling and contraction of your heart. Whatever it is, she mastered it like no other. What a legend.
A Song from the Movie" Xanadu",with Olivia Newton John, Gene Kelly
Music:Jeff Lynn(ELO)
The Soundtrack of this Movie is amazing
John Farrar (ONJ's longtime record producer and song writer) wrote and produced this song and all of ONJ's songs (except the title track) for the movie "Xanadu".
Born 1948 in England. Emigrated to Australia 1954. Started singing at 14. Won a talent contest in 1965 and coincidentally the prize was a trip to Great Britain. So yes was an established singer with hits before Grease in 1978. ❤️🤘🎸🇦🇺
While she was dropped into the Country slot, she was actually Pop/Contemporary. She ranged from "I Honestly Love You" to "Let's Get physical".
Olivia was already famous by the time Grease came about. I think she had already recorded 7 albums when she got the role of Sandy on Grease. She is a 4 time Grammy winner (with at least 2 of them before Grease). Her music style changed after Grease as she became a pop superstar! Her first hit single was 1971s 'If Not For You.' Her 1981 hit 'Physical' was number 1 for 10 weeks and became the number 1 song of the 1980's decade!!
Such a goddess, drop dead gorgeous with a timeless voice
Olivia has been singing for a long time try some of her early music- " Have you Ever Been Mellow " , and another good one is - Alittle More Love, and Twist of Fate.
This song is from the 1980 movie, "Xanadu". The movie features great music for Electric Light Orchestra.
Loved her since "I honestly love you". This is a great song, and you should def do more!
Yeah, I was one of about a few million guys that was in love with ONJ - this is my favorite song of hers. The world lost a treasure recently.
I had a crush on Olivia Newton-John and Stevie Nicks. I'm dreading the day when we lose Stevie which is hopefully years and years from now.
Olivia Newton-John was such a talent. Beautiful, a fantastic voice, sparkling charisma, a humble nature and an unrivaled determination in the face of her lifelong health problems. She was my first childhood crush before I knew what crushes were. She definitely lit up every room she walked into, and she'll be missed. RIP.
My childhood 70's crush, she was a pop hit maker with a voice for radio and the looks for TV and movies. My sister would always watch Grease when it was on broadcast Tv and I would pretend to not like it. Good times.
Hello nostalgia my old friend. Now all I need is solid gold dancers and some Adrian Zmed. The fact I remember the name Adrian Zmed is fascinating to me. RIP ONJ
Adrian Zmed! (I would NEVER have remembered his name if it wasn’t for your post!)
She started singing as a teenager in the country genre. Then she moved into light-rock/pop. You guys should watch the movie Xanadu. I am not into musicals, but Xanadu helped to change my mind. The song "Suspend Me in Time" is my favorite from that movie. I had a crush on her since I was about 8-years old. :) (I am now 58) And I miss her. Thanks, guys. Now I am getting misty eyed...
Watch her beautifully understated performance of _Fly Away_ with John Denver. It's a heartbreaker, especially now, knowing that they have both passed on
The Magic of Olivia Newton John is on full display here. Every male of all ages are in a trance watching and listening to her while every female admires her beauty talent and grace. We won't see her like again. RIP Angel 😢❤
One of the greatest , most distinct voices of alltime. Oh, and possibly one of the most classiest,charitable beautiful woman to ever breathe. You guys picked a good one for sure.
Olivia Newton-John RIP
The first time I heard Olivia was when "I Honestly Love You" played on the radio in 1974. Just fell in love with her voice.
You and countless boys like me. I was hooked in 1971 as a mere 7 year old with If Not For You. ❤
This is my fave ONJ song! Ty for reacting to it! It's fire! 🔥
RIP ONJ 🙏 🕊 🌹
Olivia won Grammys for Country music songs before Grease and came 4th for the UK (she was born in Cambridge, England) in the Eurovision Song Contest in 1974 - the year Abba won it. x
definitely a well-known singer before Grease, CMA Female Vocalist of the Year over Dolly Parton & Loretta Lynn years before. "If You Love Me, Let Me Know" was the first song I ever remember loving as a kid (7-8) and the first album I ever owned when my mom got it for me ... then smitten and full-blown crush by the time Grease and Xanadu came out. I've had a thing for Olivia for close to 50 years, she was the perfect "girl next door"
Olivia was a hit in the UK way back in 1971 with the song and album If Not For You. She continued producing hit 'country' albums during the 70s up to her Grease appearance. Like the Bee Gees, she reinvented herself and appealed to a wider disco audience in the latter 70s.
I had such a crush on her back in the 70s........RIP sweet Olivia.
LOVED ON-J - Eleven when GREASE came out so I got to grow up with her to know her country songs prior and then follow her career. Beautiful inside and out. Her voice really my favorite sound over the years. There will never be another Olivia Newton-John.
"You're perfect". Bonus husband points.
Good save!
1st song that I remember from her was Please Mister Please. In the song there is a plea not to play B17 on the jukebox. It was fun to check the jukeboxes and see if who ever loaded the records is put her song in the B17 slot. It did happen on occasion.
This is my favorite song by Olivia from the movie Xanadu.
Look at the way she moves.A strikingly gorgeous sight and voice.Olivia's/ELO's soundtrack XANADU album is one of the best mainstream and most succesful pop albums of 1980 along with Barbra Streisant's/Barry Gibb's 'Guilty' and Abba's 'Super Trouper'.
It’s been a month since her passing and I am still carrying a very heavy heart. Thank you for this reaction. It hurts me that you did not know she was a singer and that you may have even considered that she wasn’t singing in “Grease”. She has sold over 100 million albums and between 1978 and 1984, she was the biggest female pop star in the world. She was the biggest selling female recording artist of the 1970’s and the second biggest selling female recording artist of the 1980’s. I became a huge fan in 1973 when I was around 8 years old and heard her first major hit in the US called “Let Me Be There”. Before “Grease” in 1978, she already had 3 Grammy Awards, numerous Country Music and American Music Awards, several top 10 hits, two #1 hits. She actually released her first greatest hits album in late 1977. She never considered herself “an actress”. She was also the first female recording artist to re-invent herself. “Grease” gave her the opportunity to expand her music into a more soft rock / rock / pop sound. And with her vocal ability, she could sing in any genre. She is a true ICON! Many of my generation adore her. She battled breast cancer for 30 years and spent those years raising awareness and raising funds to fight and research cancer. She helped build the Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Center (in conjunction with the Austin Hospital) in her hometown of Melbourne, Australia. And tirelessly devoted herself to raising funds to support this endeavor. She was truly an amazing human being and no one ever had a bad thing to say about her.
Probably her biggest hit 'Physical' would be a great reaction, and many more.
No! That's a dumb song. Kind of embarrassing. Try her early stuff. Plenty of great songs to choose from.
I like the song, but hate the video!
Olivia's voice and songs are just majestic!
Such sad news about Olivia's passing. She was only 73 & bravely fought cancer for nearly 3 decades. Olivia had so many great songs such as "I Honestly Love You", "If Not for You", "Let Me Be There", "If You Love Me (Let Me Know)", "Have You Never Been Mellow", "Xanadu", "Hopelessly Devoted To You" etc. She starred with John Travolta in the movie "Grease" in 1978 & they had some great songs together "You're the One That I Want" & "Summer Nights".
The Most Beautiful and Most Beautiful Voice that ever lived.
My favorite from her: Have you never been mellow". Her vocal range is amazing. Wonderful singer and she was quite good in both Grease and Xanadu. She actually started in Country genre before crossing more into pop.
Agree with that song:it’s her best vocals. She actually started in Pop in Australia before she tried the US Country genre in the early 70s.
One of the sweetest, sincerest and genuinely beautiful humans to have ever existed. 👍
RIP Olivia. 🙏🌹🌷
Faced with breast cancer in 1992 Olivia always had a positive attitude. Hearing her sing made me think this is how angels sound! RIP Olivia. This song was released when I was dating my only true love and seemed like it was written for just us.
You're missing some of her cooler stuff. Really early "Let Me Be There", and "If You Love Me, Let Me Know". Deep Country/Gospel vibes.
Yes!!
She was so special to music.
I grew up in the 70s , everybody had a massive crush on her, she was a very successful singer, starting in the early 70s to early 80s. She got 4 grammys , 5 number one songs, she starred in Grease, Xanadu and Twist of Fate, Her most popular song is I HONESTLY LOVE YOU, I would do that one next.
She was a big big star. She had a number 1 hit in I think 1974 with I honestly love you. She was famous before Grease. Grease was my first album at 6 years old. I had the 8 track of Totally Hot! Yes, 8 track. Xanadu was my thing at around 8 years old. I was obsessed with the movie and soundtrack. After that her greatest hits vol 2 came out and Physical. She would win every female singer award. Rick Springfield would win every male singer award. I had all his albums too. Soul Kiss in 1985. She walked away after that album to have her daughter. She never had a number one after Physical in 1981. It was number 1 for 10 weeks so she's like number 11 or 12 on the singles chart of songs at number 1 for the most weeks. That's for all songs ever. Losing her was hard. She was my favorite. She was such a light in this world and did so much good with her cancer center. The world is a bit darker without her in it. She was my whole childhood and that feels much further away now too. RIP.
My favorite song of hers. RIP ONJ.
I knew her from Grease too and it was out before I was even born. I will miss her. RIP Olivia
Olivia Newton John was avery gifted artist , actress and humanitarian person , Australia Best artist ever and the pretties girl in the industry we all men had a crush with her .
This song was Olivia Newton-John's first #1 hit song of the 1980s. The song spend a total of 4 weeks at the #1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart during the summer of 1980. This song was an awesome song indeed!!!
She had lots of hits...she was a huge star before Grease. Great singer ....big part of my childhood/teen years....RIP❤️
She mostly did country music in the 70s. Post Grease she did another movie, Xanadu, with a soundtrack of some of her biggest hits (and songs by ELO). Her Physical album came out the following year and was a new sound for her in 1981. The title track is also the biggest song of the 1980s and was actually banned in some places. Seems tame by today’s standard.
She was amazing, That song is very inspirational. Yes so many legends and some weren't really old. And nowadays the 70's is not old, life spans are longer, but she battled cancer several times in her life unfortunately. RIP Olivia
Rest In Peace Olivia, try reacting to “Xanadu”
This is my favorite song by Olivia. She started out as mainly a country artist in 1970, and had many top hits and albums WAY before she did Grease. In the late 70's she transitioned to more of a pop singer.
Lovely reaction.
You are an interesting couple. ❤️
I grew up young. I think I was 10 when this movie and song came out.
I was poor and not super into music so I mostly heard her on the radio and was IN LOVE WITH HER VOICE. 🥰
When “physical” came out I could see her more on the music shows. Didn’t realize she was older than my mom, but I was still in love with her and even more so when I saw her in the 80s. Her voice is truly magical and very seductive.
... a stellar recording artist many years before "Grease" and long after "Grease". Her biggest hit, "Physical" stayed at the #1 spot on the Billboard Hot 100 for 10 weeks. Her first movie role was in the movie "Toomorrow" in 1970. The song you just played, "Magic", is from the 1980 movie "Xanadu" and it was a #1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100. In fact, the soundtrack albums for "Grease" and "Xanadu" were both chart topping albums. John Travolta and Olivia starred in another movie together in 1983 called "Two of a Kind".
Olivia RIP 🙏 she was a singer before grease.
Wow - it's so sad that Olivia was so underrated. I am a big fan - she was a great singer, actress, and philanthropist , down-to-earth with a demure manner. She was gorgeous - beautiful voice, body, face, hair.
Olivia was so beautiful and lovely and a genuinely good person that it was hard to believe she was actually talented as well.
Love love love you Olivia Newton John. Her style morphed after Grease from the Girl Next Door type to a bit racier sexier rocker girl. It went along with my transition into puberty perfectly. Needless to say I have loved ONJ practically my whole life and for me this is my favorite song of hers and of course she had boatloads of hits. We will not the like of her again. Such talent beauty grace poise . RIP Angel
Olivia Newton-John/I Honestly Love You ORIGINAL 1973 VERSION
Olivia Newton John was an acclaimed singer who had never acted before Grease. Definitely her voice.
She was a singer way before she acted!
Dame Olivia Newton-John AC DBE (26 September 1948 - 8 August 2022) 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 hits on the Billboard Hot 100, and two number-one albums on the Billboard 200; If You Love Me, Let Me Know (1974) and Have You Never Been Mellow (1975). Eleven of her singles (including two Platinum) and 14 of her albums (including two Platinum and four 2× Platinum) have been certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). With global sales of more than 100 million records, Newton-John is one of the best-selling music artists from the second half of the 20th century to the present. RIP peace out.
She was a singer way before grease and acting. And by the way I think the most beautiful of all female singers of the era. What a crush for so many guys.
So happy you did this song reaction. Wish more people would review this song. Been a fan from the 70's although she was performing from the 60's onwards on Australian TV. She had a phenomenal music career since she started at age 14 performing with Sol Four, a short-lived all-girl group in a coffee shop owned by her brother-in-law. She started to appear on Oz [Australian] TV in the early 60's. If you want to know a bit about Olivia’s journey, here's a link worth watching czcams.com/video/91pBZdSGVGc/video.html
Anyhoo, thanks for enjoying & reacting to her music. We will miss her greatly in Oz xo
This to me is her greatest single, great reaction
Her beauty was complete. A wonderful caring person who used her money and influence to protect animals from cruelty and cared for her husband.
Please check out some of her older music as noted by Angela below.
As many have said Oliuia was on the music scene long before she dipped into acting. She was so sweet and such a beauty always until the end. As I always say when we lose these amazing icons, I will miss her being in the world.
Magic is a good first choice. I see a lot of reactions doing Hopelessly Devoted to You off of Grease, which is great, but Magic represents Olivia Newton John's very successful singing career outside of Grease. While this version was a dubbed version, I don't mind that at all because the recorded version brings out the best in this great song.
Saw her in concert in 2012 in Thackerville Ok. Winstar casino!!
Olivia was close friends with Karen Carpenter.Such huge talents the both of them.They are so very missed.
Really enjoyed your reaction, she was beautiful, talented, kind and a big part of my childhood.
Thanks!
Listen to Xanadu! The music of ELO with Olivia on vocals, perfect combination and great song!
Olivia started singing in the 60's and had a huge career, then 2 huge musical movies, Grease and Zanadu. This song is from Zanadu. Whereas John Travolta is an actor, comedy actor and can sing.John's huge tv series hit was Welcome Back, Kotter. he was fabulous in that...Vinnie Barbarino...so funny...
I saw Grease in a theater when it first came out. On the same day I went and bought the soundtrack on vinyl still own it today. I make it a point to watch the movie every so many years.. Because it's awesome my favorite character was frenchy. Stockard Chaning who played Rizzo should of won an academy award for that role. She played the character to perfection.
BTW My brother had a huge crush on Olivia, She passed on his birthday
For a lot of Gen Xers and kids from the 70s and 80s, Olivia Newton John’s songs were omnipresent. Her huge 80s hit “Physical” is referenced in the title of a great show on Apple+. If you want to see one example of ONJ’s vocal range, check out her live performance of “Sam.” (czcams.com/video/fYr1ek6NbEc/video.html)
She also did other movies, including Xanadu - a charmingly bizarre 1980 musical. The film got bad reviews but built up a cult following over the years. And the soundtrack, featuring ONJ and ELO, was great. If nothing else, ONJ’s song and dance routine with the legendary Gene Kelly makes the movie worth watching (czcams.com/video/TjcDYj9YEHE/video.html). The title track was pretty great too (czcams.com/video/cLi8fTlDEag/video.html).
my 1st crush. rip OLIVIA
Her face! Her voice! She’s an icon 😍🥰😍🥰
1980 Olivia with her hair like this and some extra sex swag she started a year earlier was her babe peak.
ONJ was and always was a SINGER first! Her abilities landed her on Grease. Then came Xanadu which was the movie that made a young kid like me fall for her hard! Plus Xanadu also introduced me to Electric Light Orchestra and the collaboration led to my first rock album and most played ever!
In the beginning of her solo career she didn’t perform live….she was informed if she wanted to be popular with her audience she needed to tour world wide….and she did…
She had many live performances early in the US on television shows like the Tonight Show, Merv Griffin and some shows in the UK. When she first arrived in the US, she embarked on live performances at colleges. She was still new in the US, so that made sense.
Olivia was the best selling female singer of the 70’s
Olivia was a childhood crush..another movie that Olivia and John Travolta were in was Two of A Kind -- has a pretty good soundtrack. If you want to hear their voices, they had a duet there, "Take A Chance". Other notable Olivia tracks in that film were her "Twist Of Fate" and "Living In Desperate Times".
*~ ASIDE: OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN was a huge pop & country singer from the early-mid 1970s through the early 1980s (5: #1 Billboard Hot 100 Singles; Several Top 10 Country Hits).
Global sales of over 100 Million. ONJ was already a big pop star by the time she filmed "GREASE".
The big solo female singers of the 1970s: LINDA RONSTADT; DIANA ROSS; BARBRA STREISAND; OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN; DONNA SUMMER;
ARETHA FRANKLIN ~ Also major female artists/stars: CAROLE KING; JONI MITCHELL; STEVIE NICKS (FLEETWOOD MAC); ANN WILSON (HEART); GRACE SLICK (JEFFERSON AIRPLANE / STARSHIP); HELEN REDDY; ROBERTA FLACK; NATALIE COLE ~*
She was a wonderful singer and also a good person.
I was so in love with her when I was younger! lol I was like 8 or 9 when this came out... Yeah, I started liking girls early. Especially her! 😂
