    Check out this song used in an advertisement for our airline QANTAS, which announced that Australia is open for business. A post Covid emotional response for Aussies who were stuck in other countries when Australia closed down its borders to protect us from rampant covid cases coming into our country. Even though many Aussies believe we should have closed down in January 2020 instead of March 2020. Ruby Princess ship bought covid our shores.

    Thankyou for taking on my request. You did get a little confused. Olivia Newton-John - she is not Olivia Newton. Her name is hyphenated. Also the man you didn't recognise was Keith Urban. Originally from New Zealand but grew up in Queensland, Australia. He made a name for himself in Australia first as a country and western singer and then went to Nashville. He is very well known and often is a judge on things like America's Got Talent. He married Nicole Kidman and they have two daughters together. There were other stars there at the time like Bono but he wasn't involved in that because he is not Australian. Russell Crowe, like Keith, was born in New Zealand. Technically he is a Kiwi. However he considers himself more than Aussie because he has lived most of his life in Australia (when he wasn't in Hollywood) and he was married to an Australian and had Australian sons. He could not get citizenship unless he spent something like 8 months of each year in Australia and his work was taking him abroad too much, but definitely wanted to get Australian citizenship. He may have succeeded in more recent times. I don't know that for sure. I hope you do manage to get to Australia and see your nieces some day. It is a nice place to visit. Thankyou once again.

Nicole- born Hawaii to Australian parents raised here, Keith- New Zealand (NZ) Olivia-born Cambridge, England raised here, Russell Crowe ( rhymes with tow, bow, sow) NZ, wants citizenship here. Arrived here aged 4 returned for 2 years when aged 14-16 returning aged 21.

      @dee-smart 2 роки тому +1

      That is a good point. I wouldn't have thought of that angle about John but yes, even if she was aware, she probably didn't want John because he focussed his career in Australia and her mainly American audience back home would not recognise him. Also, I don't think Hugh can match John in singing. Don't get me wrong, I know he is very talented but his singing voice is not up to par as far as I am concerned. My fave Aussie singer, unfortunately dead now, was the late Michael Hutchence. Loved his clear voice. Not in the raspy type of singing and as much as so many people would disagree with me on this, I hate Jimmy Barnes' style of singing - to me that is just yelling.

    Watch the film "Grease" with John Travolta. Olivia Newton-John starred with him in it. A very beautiful and caring lady. RIP Olivia.
