Olivia Newton-John has (politely) told the press to back off their relentless questions for John Travolta in the wake of his son, Jett's death. "I think it's time to leave people alone when they are grieving. And I just send him a lot of love. It's the worse thing that can happen to a parent. I send love to him and Kelly."Canada's Ian Tyson is readying a new album, his 14th for Stony Plains re...
Xanadu was a movie that I saw some time ago and I remember really really loving it. And I saw these series of short films called The Beaver Trilogy, where a guy from Utah dresses up like Olivia Newton-John sings a song by her. I had never heard that song before so it magnetically hooked me. It's "Please Don't Keep Me Waiting" from Totally Hot.I got heavily into this song and listened to it n...
Early in her career, Olivia did a lot of great cover versions of other artists' songs...this cover of BREAD'S "Everything I Own" is one of her best. I think her crystal voice takes this song to new levels and she makes it her own. Love it!
First off... to the MOGgers who were there... this song is for you :)Let's start at the beginning, shall we ??? As Chris has stated - we all got off to a late start...

I remember having the BIGGEST crush on Olivia Newton-John when this came out in 1980... and I was only 8 years old! Almost 35 years later, I can safely say I had GREAT taste for such a wee lad. I could watch her hold her arms over her head (at the :45 second mark) a million times over.

Originally posted on September 24th, 2006.I don’t remember much about the movie, but the soundtrack to Xanadu rocks my world. The first side features songs from Olivia Newton-John, and the second side features the Electric Light Orchestra. We had the album on 8-track at one time.I learned to play this song on acoustic guitar when my friend Jason (Agent Fresh) requested a version from me. The so.
