Live Report

.. mais en japonais dans le texte !

2010年以来となるジャパン・ツアーを展開中のオリビア・ニュートン・ジョン。すでに大阪、名古屋での公演を盛況のうちに終え、4月27日、渋谷Bunkamuraオーチャードホールにて東京公演の初日を迎えた。

◆オリビア・ニュートン・ジョン画像

開演予定の午後7時を5分ほど過ぎた頃に場内は暗転。「愛の告白」をモチーフにしたイントロダクションに乗って登場したオリビアがまず披露したのは、1975年の大ヒット曲「そよ風の誘惑」。まさにこの曲が聴きたくて会場を訪れたファンも少なくないことだろう。超満員のオーディエンスは大きな拍手と歓声で喜びを露わにし、ステージ上のオリビアも客席に手を振りながら笑顔でそれに応えていた。

そこから先は、退屈とは完全に無縁の約100分間だった。デビュー45周年を数える長いキャリアのなかで生まれたヒット曲の数々が網羅されているのみならず、たとえば前半には『ザナドゥ』、そして終盤には『グリース』という、彼女の代表的主演映画のサウンドトラックからの選曲によるパートも設けられていた。

- Inspiration

A CHANCE meeting with a superstar has inspired a budding singer to help others.

Bella-Mia, 8, was with her mother Luisa Bortolin at a US talent event when they saw Olivia Newton-John.

The Heidelberg Heights singer was surprised when the meeting turned into a 40-minute chat, with the youngster even singing for her.

The Macleod College stud­ent also asked if she could sing at the Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Centre for patients.

- Live Reviews


THE forecast rain stayed away and singing superstars John Farnham and Olivia Newton-John shone brightly on the Tempus Two concert stage at Pokolbin on Saturday night.

The seemingly ageless icons of Australian music entertained a crowd of nearly 8000 Hunter punters for more than two hours, belting out an array of hits including I Honestly Love You, Magic, Xanadu, Physical, Pressure Down, Age of Reason, That’s Freedom and You’re The Voice.

They were backed by the 60-piece Metropolitan Orchestra under the direction of Chong Lim.

OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN & JOHN FARNHAM – 19TH APRIL 2015 – QANTAS CREDIT UNION ARENA, SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA
Published On April 20, 2015 | By Brendon Veevers | Featured Live, Live, Music

When you think of Australian music icons there are a couple of superstars that spring to most people’s minds almost instantly – Olivia Newton-John and John Farnham.
Olivia began her career in the 70’s with enormous selling singles including Physical and the cinematic treasure Xanadu, both of which have paved the success of Olivia’s lengthy career as a vocal legend and film icon however her role as naïve Sandy in the phenomenon that is Grease where she starred alongside John Travolta in 1978 made the musician and actress a household name the world over.

John on the other hand took a slightly different path and his fame has really been contained within Australia. Breaking out in the 60’s as a teen star he was quick to unleash some of the 80’s biggest vocal numbers such as Age of Reason, Pressure Down, Two Strong Hearts and of course his signature hit and one of Australia’s most recognizable anthems, You’re The Voice from his 1986 Whispering Jack record, the biggest selling record in Australian history. For several decades the once mullet-donning vocalist has lived a slightly less Hollywood inspired lifestyle than his friend Newton-John but is considered one of Australia’s most successful recording artists and easily one of, if not the, most talented vocalists to come out of the Australian music industry.

With a friendship that has also spanned several decades, it was only a matter of time before the two iconic singers would work together again in music and while they have paired up at various moments throughout each acts careers to perform live together, fans have been treated to a joint tour from Newton-John and Farnham over these past couple of weeks with a string of shows in various cities around Australia and the hordes of fans flocked to Sydney’s Qantas Credit Union Arena for the closing night of the joint Two Strong Hearts tour last night.

John Farnham and Olivia Newton-John
Qantas Credit Union Arena, April 19
Well of course they climaxed with You're The Voice. With bagpipes. Real bagpipes, not sampled from the keyboards. A big, stomping You're The Voice, both John Farnham and Olivia Newton-John singing, complete with 9000-voice choir. A wall of patriotic sound that had the over-enthusiastic chap beside me up once again, arms in the air like he just don't care, dad jeans-clad bum shaking alarmingly close to my face as he belted out the words directly into the face of his equally vocal lady friend. (And really, were any of us any different this night?)

John Farnham et Olivia Newton-John ont donné ce dimanche 19 avril, à Sydney, leur dernier concert de leur tournée australienne 2 Strong Hearts ! 

Les critiques ont été dithyrambiques et le public australien s'est rendu massivement à ces rendez vous si uniques ...

Notre amie Rob a eu la chance d'assister à ce dernier concert et d'entendre ONJ interpréter des chansons qu'elle n'a pas l'habitude de chanter sur scène ..

ONJ est attendue au Japon le 23 avril pour une autre tournée d'un autre genre ..

From our dearest Rob : BEST show ever ! I can tell by Olivia's face she had so much fun ! 
I loved every minute ! Loved seeing Olivia singing songs she doesn't usually sing !

Un grand merci à Rob pour ses superbes photos !!

Les critiques ont été dithyrambiques ... le concept original ..et ONJ chante si peu en Australie 

Music veterans John ­Farnham and Olivia Newton-John as good as ever
THE COURIER-MAIL APRIL 15, 2015 12:00AM

THEY are two of Australia’s most ­iconic voices and last night John ­Farnham and Olivia Newton-John brought the crowd to their feet at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre.

The singers, each of whom has been performing for more than fifty years, haven’t let age slow them down and worked the stage like the renowned professionals they are.

Farnham and Newton-John are longtime friends and their mutual ­affection is obvious when performing together.

That, and the fact both their singing voices are as strong as ever, has been earning them rave reviews as they perform around the country.

Their next stop is Sydney, the final date on their Two Strong Hearts tour.

JOHN FARNHAM AND OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN LIVE IN ADELAIDE

Posted by Rodney Magazinovic
13/04/2015

John Farnham and Olivia Newton-John, two of the most amazing performers to ever come out of Australia have joined together to create the Two Strong Hearts Tour, and the show in Adelaide was easily the best and most enjoyable concert I have ever attended.
10,000 fans filled the Adelaide Entertainment Centre for a night of amazing music, sing-alongs and of coarse, with John around, a lot of laughs. The atmosphere in the room was electric, seeing both Olivia and John having such as joyous time on stage was infectious to the crowd. Everyone felt important and like the show was just for them, these two talented performers are so humble and realise their fan base is one of the main reasons their careers are still going strong after so many years.
