HOMMAGES

“Falling” was always one of Olivia’s favorite songs to sing. Longtime ONJ bandmate Dane Bryant and I recorded this two years ago as a gift for Olivia and the song's composer,John Farrar. It's now incredibly poignant as it seems as it was recorded for this moment in time @olivianj pic.twitter.com/OTiFTU4DbV

What a dark day it is today. One of our brightest stars. She was the pinnacle of all a young Australian singer ever wanted to be. Authentic, kind, talented. She influenced us all…have to believe we are magic RIP @olivianj pic.twitter.com/nG2xXqqF0d

Le 15 septembre 1979, la face B du 45t TOTALLY HOT résiste dans les charts US ! DANCIN' ROUND AND ROUND ballade Country écrite par Adam Mitchell grimpe dans le BILLBOARD HOT COUNTRY SINGLES à la 30ème place et en mode ADULT CONTEMPORARY à la 27ème !

Le BILLBOARD HOT100 était toujours dominé par THE KNACK



CHER entrait dans le HOT100 à la 81ème place avec une chanson qui n'a pas vraiment fait date ... surfant sur la vague des Rollers



Le single ANGEL EYES d'ABBA sortait sur le marché américain ... Le précédent 45t VOULEZ VOUS n'a pas vraiment rencontrer le succès aux USA et n'a pas été plus haut que la 80ème marche du HOT100 !

C'ETAIT UN 15 SEPTEMBRE 2000


Il y a vingt ans, Catherine Freeman, une athlète australienne aborigène a allumé la vasque olympique marquant la cérémonie d'ouverture de Sydney 2000, des Jeux qui célébraient non seulement les exploits sportifs mais aussi l'unité, le pardon, la résilience et l'innovation.

Il y a vingt ans, John Farnham et Olivia Newton-John, main dans la main, enflammaient le stade olympique de Sydney devant les 110 000 spectateurs venu assister à cet événement hors pair ...

REVIEW

...... Farnham teaming up with Olivia Newton-John for Two Strong Hearts was always going to be one of the most talked-about performances of the night, but his masterstroke was bringing out Queen guitarist Brian May, Mitch Tambo, a didgeridoo player and bagpipers for the most incredible rendition of You're The Voice imaginable. The combined performers for the final chorus to close the event felt like a true, classic stadium rock experience.

With over $9 million raised and some excellent performances, Fire Fight well and truly exceeded the expectations of organisers and fans alike, with the stars aligning for a day that will take some digesting for those lucky enough to be there.

PROVENANCE From the Collection of Olivia Newton-John

Have you seen them
Playing car games
Revving up your heart
Before the lights change
Have you been there
And not been aware
That you are the victim
Of a highway love affair
through your window
There's a stranger
Cruising right beside you
Courting danger
When your eyes meet
For one second you believe
You're another victim
Of a highway love affair
Car games--faces with no names
Freeway lovers lanes
Car games--silent rendezvous
For a mile or two
Playing car games
Every morning there's another
Chance to fuel the fantasy all over
Are we cheating
If it's only in our minds
Have you been a victim
Of a highway love affair
Car games--faces with no names
Freeway lovers lanes
Car games--silent rendezvous
For a mile or two
Playing car games
Silent rendezvous, for a mile or two
Playing car games, car games

GOSSIP

Ou comment les tabloïds aiment bien monter en épingle une histoire ....
Olivia Newton-John n'a jamais dit qu'elle avait eu une histoire de cul avec le grand bad boy brun ténébreux star de cinéma qui se tapait tout ce qui bouge à Hollywood !
Elle a juste dit qu'il avait essayé ... mais qu'elle avait refusé ses avances !

Woman’s Day (Australia)
18 Mar 2019

Olivia Newton-john has opened up on a sizzling love affair she once had with a mystery Hollywood superstar – but she’s refusing to name him!

The 70-year-old Grease legend – who’s battling cancer for a third time – has shared her incredible life story in a new memoir, Don’t Stop Believin’.

And the juiciest highlight in the tome is her confession about her secret hook-ups with a man she enticingly describes only as a “Hollywood bad-boy legend with a long list of girlfriends”.

Olivia did drop a few clues about the mystery Lothario, letting it slip she met him in a coffee shop and he asked her out.

Initially she spurned his advances because he was dating her close friend, Dirty Mary Crazy Larry star Susan George, but later, he won her over.

That revelation led to a dissection of the 68-year-old English actress’ ex-lovers, who have included Rod Stewart, Andy Gibb and Peter Sellers. Other names thrown into the ring include Olivia’s Grease co-star John Travolta and Oscar winner Dustin Hoffman, plus late James Bond heartthrob Roger Moore.

However, Olivia insists her fling’s name will forever remain a mystery.

“He was my first major movie star encounter! His name? I’ll never tell,” she wrote, secretively.

The book is forthcoming with other private revelations, too – including her heartbreaking experience suffering miscarriages, her brave battle with breast cancer, plus her love for current husband John Easterling.
“True love found me when I wasn’t looking,” she touchingly writes of her second spouse, whom she wed in 2008.
