I had to playback this great song from an idol, a timeless goddess, we never met but I was one of your most devoted admirers and I wish you where ever you are, a good trip and peace in your soul....
I'm a 58 year old man who has had a lifelong crush on Olivia Newton John like many millions of guys my age. Her death gutted me terribly. Such talent beauty and Grace. RIP angel Livvy
Takes me back to no worries, no bills, no mortgage, no job and endless summers riding our bikes in the neighbrohood, drinking out of water hoses on a hot day. I don't hear this song much but when I do I am always taken back to the summer of 1980. I remember a girl let me "borrow" the 45 record if she could borrow my Rubik's Cube. Awesome song, one of my favorite from the time period when we all were (more) innocent and had nothing to worry about.
amen no worries just fun times it reminds me the summer of 1980 the girl i was dating looked like olivia newtons john omg wow i was 13 years old she was 12 summer love good times wish i could go back for sure vs today no thank u awesome i`m a hard core metal person but i do like this songalbum good times!
This song is the siren call of a goddess beckoning a mere mortal man to surrender to her will and charms, promising him an eternity of heavenly ecstasy….sign me up!!!!
I wish I was old enough to see her in concert. This one song helped me escape the child abuse of my parents. I would play it over and over waiting for my way out.
I was in the 4th grade when this song came out and the Xanadu movie...always loved her singing..it was clear..and harmonious...her acting was great too..rest inpeace you fought the good fight..now take a much needed rest with the lord.
Ciao, Giuseppe. Non sei mai morto nel mio cuore: ricordi? Era uno dei tuoi pezzi preferiti che canticchiavi quando eri felice. Ti voglio bene, amico di ieri. Renato
I fell in love with a woman when I was 25. She wanted to see the movie Xanadu, so we went to the drive-in together. While this song played she asked me to kiss her & then told me she loved me. A week later she told me she was married and was going back to her husband because of her kids. I was devastated. She was beautiful, we were the same age. I never saw her again. That was 34 years ago. Whenever I hear this song I think about that night when she told me she loved me. I was young and naive. From time to time I wonder what became of her. Nicole.
"Magic" Come take my hand You should know me I've always been in your mind You know that I'll be kind I'll be guiding you Building your dream Has to start now There's no other road to take You won't make a mistake I'll be guiding you You have to believe we are magic Nothin' can stand in our way You have to believe we are magic Don't let your aim ever stray And if all your hopes survive Your destiny will arrive I'll bring all your dreams alive For you From where I stand You are home free The planets align so rare There's promise in the air And I'm guiding you Through every turn I'll be near you I'll come anytime you call I'll catch you when you fall I'll be guiding you You have to believe we are magic Nothin' can stand in our way You have to believe we are magic Don't let your aim ever stray And if all your hopes survive Your destiny will arrive I'll bring all your dreams alive For you
I was 7 win this came out beautiful voice Olivia newton john was big in the 70s and 80 loved all her music they dont make music like this these days the music today sucks
Always loved this song. Definitely one of Olivia's best and it's sultriness hasn't diminished with time. Why it only got to No 32 in the UK chart has always been a mystery to me. My fellow Brits obviously have no taste! Beautiful woman singing a beautiful song. Class!
One of the most beautiful and truly "Magical" songs of the 20th century. Some things can only be created once, and never again. This song is just such a "one of a kind" masterpiece! God bless you, Olivia, and thank you for blessing us all by sharing your beautiful gift with the world. For me? This song shall always be your magnum opus and will always sweep me away and fill my heart with light. All Love & Happiness! 🎶🌹🌎❤✌
I know this was already in a movie but I would love it to be in mind again rest in peace Olivia Newton John I know you're watching over some of us.. Still a happy early birthday this month to you.. 9 .04.2022
A magical time when this was released. That's the power of music, to send you back in time. The feelings and memories will never fade....... as long as this kind of music still exists.
This melody really is magical......So unique and beautiful. Literally one of the most enchantingly clever chord progressions ever written in my opinion. I wonder if music will ever even come close to being this good again.
Oh I feel.the same. Music is just.not as good as it used to be. It's all just ghetto noise anymore, cheap unintelligent rants set to lousy rythmn tracks and badly performed by tackily dressed people who are only in it for the money and the life that goes with it. Depressing as hell.
@Jai Barker Whyatt-Drewitt I am aware that there is some good music being produced dear. I am also aware that the better music gets very little if any AIR PLAY. I do not suffer from closed mindedness.
She HAD ME at... "Will a LITTLE more Love?",,,,when she sang to ME,,, ...YES... I did believe..."In Magic"... God, I'll miss you, Olivia... I Love you,,, Wayne
The soundtrack blew me away the first time I heard it as a kid, on a cassette tape. It was also my introduction to the awesomeness of ELO and Jeff Lynne. Can’t believe it’s been over 40 years. Man, I’m getting old 😩
This song always sounds as fresh and beautiful as the day it was first released. It just never gets old and I'm glad and thankful for this great extended mix. It truly is "magic", how this song has endured through the years. Great notes, chords, lyrics results in a true classic from the early 1980's. Olivia's voice is the sound of perfection. Truly magical. The planets were aligned so rare when "MAGIC" was recorded. ⚖♎
My friend would perform his opening magic sequence to this song. It was the start of our full magic show. I had to put the needle in the groove offstage. I'm still a magician today. Thanks David...and thank YOU Olivia!
Was listening to a soft pop station recently and this classic came on. It has been fun to REALLY hear the lyrics at this stage of my life. You have to believe we are magic Nothing can stand in our way!
I immediately was time warped to when I was 5 years old and trying to master my roller skates like the older cooler 12 year olds in the neighborhood! I have to say, I'm feeling quite nostalgic listening to this.
I had not heard this beautiful song (& Olivia's voice) for a long time. Though I know it is supposed to be romantic, I still love it - lyrics & melody. Both are strangely relevant now - even as "non-romantic" = Magic as in Parent to Child / Spiritual Guidance.
I remember listening to this on the radio every nite and falling asleep listening to this song, late at nite a very, long time ago.....hard to believe.....1980
I'm 16 years old again , ahhhhh......my youth. ( I'm 55 now ) I had always Wished for a longer version of this song and found this version , I'm so happy that whoever remixed this , didnt mess it up or "Fix"it , it doesn't need any tricks, it just needed to be extended. Some people want to put their own mark on a song and ruin the original Beauty of it . Thank you for not doing that.
Loving English since i was a child i learn it by the time i saw Xanadu in TV, i was 12 years old, And men i try so hard to learn this song. Back them i believe in Magic too so the whole package buy me., She's a Hit maker no matter what people say.
i absolutely love everything this woman's ever done...does anyone remember "If Not for You" from 1971? great stuff!! wow, am i dating myself or what??!
Absolutely WONDERFUL! Olivia has an INCREDIBLE SWEET VOICE, She is ONE OF THE GREATEST FEMALE SINGER of these 30 FABULOUS DECADES (60-70-80) and AFTER, off course...
I was a child when I first heard this song. It mesmerized me even now. What a beautiful voice she has above all she is beautiful. Classic and memorable forever.
Saw this film as a kid in some crappy old cinema in Auckland many years ago. Always remembered this song from the film. Pretty amazing to think Gene Kelly appeared in this film considering he appeared in a number of films back in the 40's and 50's. Thought I was watching a ghost nice song though.
During that era of the 80s this particular song made those moments especially when the movie came out a mystical time in history as her voice into sound in the arrangement was very mystical
The great pharma-drugging and dumbing down society..happened. Humans into robots Truly amazing the vapid disposable mindless _shite_ people have been conditioned to willfully embrace (and spend $millions on!) They don't know any better because they aren't programmed for it
The great music is still there, it's just no longer on top 40 radio. I'm tired of everyone thinking that ALL pop music is bad simply because top 40 radio is so bad.
I wonder if my mother told Olivia Newton John that I had a serious crush on her up in heaven. Maybe. I watched Grease so many times as a kid. Yeah, she probably did.
I had to playback this great song from an idol, a timeless goddess, we never met but I was one of your most devoted admirers and I wish you where ever you are, a good trip and peace in your soul....
RIP Olivia Netwon-John. We miss you!
I'm a 58 year old man who has had a lifelong crush on Olivia Newton John like many millions of guys my age. Her death gutted me terribly. Such talent beauty and Grace. RIP angel Livvy
I always think of that line at the end of Midnight Run "-See you in the next life." I hope to see her there.
I'm with you! RIP sweet lady!
Me to
Amen. Fell for her beauty when I was only 7 years old.
So Sad...I Grew Up With This Music...Thankz To My Mom....RIP!!!!!!
One of those compelling songs that made we want to buy a boombox in the 80’s.
R.i.p. Olivia ur songs are 4-ever miss u Olivia 😢 !
Takes me back to no worries, no bills, no mortgage, no job and endless summers riding our bikes in the neighbrohood, drinking out of water hoses on a hot day.

Seriously. THis song, unlike so many disco genra hits, will never lose it's power. That drop tone repeating note it almost hypnotic.
radio1342 the 80's were good years to be kid.
This song is the siren call of a goddess beckoning a mere mortal man to surrender to her will and charms, promising him an eternity of heavenly ecstasy….sign me up!!!!
RIP Olivia, this song will always be the song that played with many a good memory. Rest easy
indeed well said
We will all see her in Heaven. Guaranteed = Karen, Donna and Whitney and Michael as well. Eddie Van Halen as well.
@@randallredman4868 mabybe not Michael...
Rest in peace, Olivia.
already missing you so much.
I pray that my Grandchildren can live through a period of time like the early 1980s in the USA. It was magic indeed!
Beautiful Olivia... Love you forever ❤️❤️❤️
My teenage crush that never went away. So beautiful in every way. R.I.P.
I love you, Olivia! R.I.P. Thank you.
Like an angels whisper while in dreamland
I wish I was old enough to see her in concert. This one song helped me escape the child abuse of my parents. I would play it over and over waiting for my way out.

I miss those days...glad I was there for the ride...
Probably my favorite song by her. This is a sad day. RIP.
God I miss this girl she had that something and never seemed to cross the line of decency rip
The chord progressions in this song are incredible.
absolutely, of great beauty
love you girl thank you so much for your beautifl music I will miss you
RIP Olivia Newton-John
😭😭😭😭💐💐💐💐⚰⚰⚰⚰
It is her live performances of this song that are phenomenal. A true genius. Her ability to captivate her audience is 'magic'
Ciao, Giuseppe. Non sei mai morto nel mio cuore: ricordi? Era uno dei tuoi pezzi preferiti che canticchiavi quando eri felice. Ti voglio bene, amico di ieri. Renato
I used to chill in my room as a kid and just dream to this song. Good memories.
August 1980
Buena Park, California
11 years old
Knots Berry Farm and Disneyland
Great time to be a kid
Rest in Peace Olivia, thank you for the wonderful music and the difference you made in the world. 💖💖💖
Still my favorite Olivia song.
Mine too
Mine too.
Mine too x
This song made it to #1 in 1980.🙂
She had a few others.
What a tune, R.I.P Olivia, a true female legend 🥰🥰🥰🥰

Love blinded her & contagiated You. She wanted to live in the song. See they lirics
What a bitch !
@@mikelitoris9610 i hope her husband left her for someone younger.
you're lookin' at it all wrong, bro! you dodged a BULLET!
WOW WHAT A TRAGIC STORY , BUT ONE THAT WAS BITTERSWEET...GOD BLESS YOU!
Thanks, O. It all just clicked. You bet your sweet fanny we're magic!
"Magic"
Come take my hand
You should know me
I've always been in your mind
You know that I'll be kind
I'll be guiding you
Building your dream
Has to start now
There's no other road to take
You won't make a mistake
I'll be guiding you
You have to believe we are magic
Nothin' can stand in our way
You have to believe we are magic
Don't let your aim ever stray
And if all your hopes survive
Your destiny will arrive
I'll bring all your dreams alive
For you
From where I stand
You are home free
The planets align so rare
There's promise in the air
And I'm guiding you
Through every turn I'll be near you
I'll come anytime you call
I'll catch you when you fall
I'll be guiding you
You have to believe we are magic
Nothin' can stand in our way
You have to believe we are magic
Don't let your aim ever stray
And if all your hopes survive
Your destiny will arrive
I'll bring all your dreams alive
For you
🖤🖤🖤🖤
The Words Are So Beautifully Written …❤️❤️❤️
*Thank you.*
Love this song ! Thank you Olivia 🙏 R.I.P. 😢
Reading the lyrics really bring the message alive!

Have to believe in Magic to overcome this economically debilitating Pandemic 6 Sept 2020. As usual ONJ is always there to sooth our battered soul.
I know this was already in a movie but I would love it to be in mind again rest in peace Olivia Newton John I know you're watching over some of us..
Still a happy early birthday this month to you..

A magical time when this was released. That's the power of music, to send you back in time. The feelings and memories will never fade....... as long as this kind of music still exists.
It exists to those of us who still listen to it.
I couldn't agree more. This song brings me back to summer of 1980, I was 13 and life was simple and happy. I miss those days
This melody really is magical......So unique and beautiful. Literally one of the most enchantingly clever chord progressions ever written in my opinion. I wonder if music will ever even come close to being this good again.
Truly. I think the same every time I hear it.
The harmonics are great
Oh I feel.the same. Music is just.not as good as it used to be. It's all just ghetto noise anymore, cheap unintelligent rants set to lousy rythmn tracks and badly performed by tackily dressed people who are only in it for the money and the life that goes with it. Depressing as hell.

I did believe..."In Magic"...
God, I'll miss you, Olivia...
I Love you,,,

I was 20 years old when this song came up for the first time on the radio. Magical time for me in 1980. R.I.P. Livvy
Think about it - this song is more than four decades old! Only that it doesn’t sound old at all 🤗
So true! Amazing, isn't it?
The soundtrack blew me away the first time I heard it as a kid, on a cassette tape. It was also my introduction to the awesomeness of ELO and Jeff Lynne.
Can’t believe it’s been over 40 years. Man, I’m getting old 😩
Magic is ONJ personified so good
Beauty personified xx
I love the way this song seems to twist and turn like a weird funfair ride. Does anyone else get this feel for the song, or am I nuts?
This song always sounds as fresh and beautiful as the day it was first released. It just never gets old and I'm glad and thankful for this great extended mix. It truly is "magic", how this song has endured through the years. Great notes, chords, lyrics results in a true classic from the early 1980's. Olivia's voice is the sound of perfection.

Another classic from Olivia...rip

Damn...!!! This song takes me back to the moment when my parents took me to see that movie... What a wonderful time
Olivia's voice is and will always be Magic to my ears, heart and soul. I can't think of a sexier sounding female vocalist
Peggy Lee :)
Was listening to a soft pop station recently and this classic came on. It has been fun to REALLY hear the lyrics at this stage of my life. You have to believe we are magic
Nothing can stand in our way!
Come tune in:podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-yacht-rock-show-with-eddie-ganz/id1520843815
NOTHING CAN STAND IN OUR WAY! WE ARE MAGIC! INFINITY AND BEYOND!
One of THE best songs out of the early eighties. Outstanding REMIX! And of course, the stellar vocals of Olivia. Perfection!
I immediately was time warped to when I was 5 years old and trying to master my roller skates like the older cooler 12 year olds in the neighborhood! I have to say, I'm feeling quite nostalgic listening to this.
❤a classic from Olivia newton John 😂😂😂😂😂
what a great song from an era that was more kind!
indeed
Good times. She was the only good thing about my childhood. Her music kept me sane! Truly one of a kind.
I'm playing it on the worlds smallest violin for you right now.
Chud And I am flipping you the bird right now ;)
I'm not surprised to hear that.
Me too! My childhood babysitter gave me an Olivia album for Christmas one year and it was a lifesaver. My parents were total psychos.
@@mrvapor4791 you're just a hater. Nobody loves a person like you buddy. NOBODY.
I had not heard this beautiful song (& Olivia's voice) for a long time. Though I know it is supposed to be romantic, I still love it - lyrics & melody. Both are strangely relevant now - even as "non-romantic" = Magic as in Parent to Child / Spiritual Guidance.

Fantastic song from a fantastic soundtrack to a movie I'm still not sure I understand. 1980 was a year we will never see the likes of again.
I was a child when I first heard this song. It mesmerized me even now. What a beautiful voice she has above all she is beautiful. Classic and memorable forever.
A very lovely tune that never seems to get old.
Rest In Peace 🙏 BEAUTIFUL, INSIDE/OUT 1 of my Heroes...miss u!!!
One powerful cosmic-revelation...who's singing the message? A lover or a guiding angel?

Whatever happened to great Pop music like this?
Check out my music lists.
Bad taste and stupidity took over the world. That's what happened.
JUSTIN!!!
The great pharma-drugging and dumbing down society..happened.
Humans into robots
Truly amazing the vapid disposable mindless _shite_ people have been conditioned to willfully embrace (and spend $millions on!) They don't know any better because they aren't programmed for it
The great music is still there, it's just no longer on top 40 radio. I'm tired of everyone thinking that ALL pop music is bad simply because top 40 radio is so bad.

Yes, she dobbed you in. Nice to meet you 🖐 🤝 ♥ 🧚♂️ 🌟 🚀 🌌 🗺
Great memories ! 1980 ! Thanks for sharing !
Still a timeless song!
A great song from a fantastic singer. you'll be missed. RIP Olivia.
