    Someone might have mentioned this, but Magic and Xanadu were two years after Grease, not the same year. Also worth mentioning, is that she is now on her third bout with cancer, and was made a Dame by the Queen this past January. You should do a deep dive on all she has done for breast cancer awareness and research since she was first diagnosed in 1992. She is an amazing humanitarian!

    Olivia Newton John is easily one of my all time favorite singers ever!! I am mostly a Heavy Metal fan but I do love other genres alot also. I love Pat Benator, Abba, Fleetwood Mac, and many others. When I was a little kid my mom is the person that got me into Olivia Newton John. She would watch a HBO special concert back in the early 80's and that is what got me into her music. Magic had always been my favorite song of hers, and I have always loved Living In Desperate Times, Xanadu, Heart Attack, Twist Of Fate, Jolene, and many , many more. Her singing has always been very sexy to me and she is still as Gorgeous as she has always been.

  • @mochs3869
    @mochs3869 4 роки тому +12

    As a drummer just learning about them during that time period, this song always made me wonder how they did what they did on this track. What Kel is describing is a slapback echo delay on the snare drum. Each 'normal' 2 and 4 hit had a millisecond delay on it that gives it the syncopation you're talking about so instead of just a quarter note hit on 2 and 4 that everyone is always used to, each 2 and 4 sounded like 2 16th notes. The bigger thing that I didn't figure out for a long time is the dual hi hat tracks going on that are different in each ear. If you pan your headphones to one side, you'll hear just a 'straight eigth' note pattern, while if you pan to the other side, you''ll hear a 'galloping' type hi hat pattern. The two together play tricks with your ears - especially with headphones on.

    Magic was released in May of 1980. Olivia filmed and recorded Grease in the summer of 1977 and the film debuted in 1978. So, Magic was three years later and a single from the movie/soundtrack of Xanadu. Between the films she released the album Totally Hot, which was a move toward a more pop/rock sound for her. It's a great album!

    Hi Kel-Rich,. Love the older music, and Olivier Newton -John. I am an Aussie and from the 80s vintage. We exported heaps of talent back then: INXS, AC/DC, men at work (Land Down under) The Angels, Little River Band, The Bee Gees ect ect; also Nicole Kidman, Cate Blanchett, Mel Gibson and Russel Crowe! Not bad for 24 million population! I went to school with INXS and they used to play in the school band, not too popular at school, but look what happened with them! Keep up the good work, I hear you guys are doing it tough over there with the recent riots and COVID; hang in there! We are your oldest allies and know that our mates in the US can pull through this! All the best from ‘Big daddy’ down under Australia 🇦🇺

    One of the best things about this song is the lyrics and meaning. People hearing it as just a song (without context of the movie) hear a seductive love song. But thinking of a muse inspiring an artist or bard casting a protective spell, it takes on a meaning of hope and strength that transcends love.

    Very insightful reaction. ONJ was one of those artists that just makes it look so easy. Whata great talent. I enjoyed your interpretation of the song.
