      Wonderful video! Love that it was before Grease and she sang other songs and dressed up in different costumes. Very entertaining!

    Can you think of any performer today who could pull off an extended medley of such wildly varying musical styles with this level of grace, talent and beauty, without resorting to being barely clothed and bumping and grinding? Not that there's anything wrong with that, but this special and Olivia harken back to a time when female singers actually had real vocal TALENT. She happened to be absolutely gorgeous as well, but she really could (and can) sing.

    You can tell here she was made to do Grease. I think she was the main reason why Grease became a global success.

    I agree. One of TV's finest moments and my favourite TV moment ever. What a voice, what a vibrato, what a face, what versatility! Like a mini-movie-musical.

    From Gibson Girl to Flower Child to Pop Goddess...Olivia's beauty is unreproachable and beyond time...and I don't mean JUST physical beauty.
    I'm sure you could throw Celtic Queen and Intergalactic Aviatrix into the mix with equally stunning results.

      She's definitely my favorite ever. Still devastated. Feel like I lost a close family member. Her music is the soundtrack of my life. As beautiful as she is on the outside, it's her beauty on the inside that makes her so special. She's that rare genuine celebrity that has never said a bad thing about anyone else in interviews or in print. She has done so much for animal rights, the environment, cancer, and more. She's the real deal. I met her twice and she was exactly who I expected. She was an angel on earth.

    La mejor cantante de la década de los 70 y 80 y ni hablar de su belleza ( incomparable ) nadie la superaba y en mi opinión si no tuvo más oportunidades fue por no ser norteamericana ....solo cuando hizo Grease no le quedó más remedio que catapultarla a lo máximo del estrellato

    okay, i have to say her hottest, prettiest look is the last one, the black disco thing where she sings 'heart is on fire,' man, she almost made me gasp, i love her hair like that... and hands down, her worst look? that nerdy western shirt she open and closes the clip in. great audio, by the way.

    I'm sorry. I've seen everything from "Toomorrow", thru "Xanadu" to "Two of a Kind" (I like bad movies). Lovely woman, beautiful voice, some great songs....should have left it at that.

      @reasonrestored9116 3 года назад

      I absolutely love Olivia singing, she is my favourite singer ever, and I love grease, but I gotta say she was no actress. She pulled it off in grease. Xanadu was a disaster (though seen as a collection of music videos it’s great) tomorrow equally awful…I thought she had massively improved for Two of a Kind (i think she’d had lessons) and thereafter, but by then her goose was cooked in movies.
