Neon Lights Will Shine...
for you, Xan*adu! Or maybe not. It sounds like the new B'way show, Xan*adu (yes, based on that horrible movie!)is receiving mixed reviews.
Too bad, because the soundtrack rocks!
Anything with E*LO and Olivia has to be good, right?! This is one of the albums I listened to over and over in the early '80's.(Along with albums by ABBA and the Godspell and Grease soundtracks!) I so remember dressing my B*rbie up like the Olivia at the end of the video...used tissues for the skirt!
For your flashback listening (and viewing!) pleasure! For die-hards, the 8 minute version (more costumes, Olivia and roller skating!!)is at the bottom. =)

Is it weird that this song always gives me a slight case of the goosebumps? I wanted to BE Olivia Newton John - even during her Physical Phase. Back with the Xanadu album - I tried desparately to get my hair like hers. Two small ponytails on either side.
Sometimes I still try.
Wow, that brings back the memories. I thought ONJ was the coolest too. We must be having musical flashbacks lately.
We just talked about this tonight. THanks for sharing!
Olivia is a goddess!!! My most fav. movie EVA is Grease! Aaahhh... my teenage days, dreaming that I was Sandy, waiting for my super cool, leather-clad man to come strolling along...
*poof* sorry, did I say all that outloud?!!!
A def. blast from the past! I had the Grease soundtrack on 33 and listened to it all the time.
Keep smilin!
Loved the movie! Thanks for the memories :)
I LOVED that movie when I was a girl! LOVED IT!!
I used to spend WAY too much time on my rollerskates...
;-)
Dude, I SOOO loved Xanadu and used to skate in my empty garage to it with a headband on :)
Kaiser Chief's song Ruby - don't know it! Better go and find it on iTunes :)
