Wow !!!

Sure, these are fanmade compilations, but to me it certainly makes sense to have a Beatles style Anthology production made on Dame Olivia Newton John extraordinary legacy, God bless her soul

I had previously downloaded and viewed that 'Oliviology' series. It is a fantastic piece of work that holds many rare clips too.

Awesome stuff indeed Walter.

The interview is wrongly dared and is actually from around 1975.

good one jetblack, Say what do you think? A Beatles style Anthology TV followed by a 3 DVD/ Blu Ray set , would it work for Dame Olivia?

The bulk will be focused on musical achievements but one should be devoted to the other side of Olivia, of what equally made her legacy, and that was her decades long crusade against cancer.

Part 8 on this brilliantly-fan made Oliviology series focuses on the musical Sci-Fi film "Xanadu".

The 'Oliviology' series is a excellent start for those wishing to delve further.

As there is nothing on dvd/ blu ray that encompasses Olivia's entire career it is something that would be very welcome to this fan and I'm sure countless others too.

Another one ?!?!

OMG, folks we're going beyond parts 1 to 8. Thanks to the four, dedicated Dame Olivia fans and their vision !

Part 9 Chapter 1 examines "Physical" where she raised a few eyebrows with a new image, the song and it's subsequent album.

For me, especially cool to see "Landslide" video (the opener to the album) , as it's the first time, did not know that there was a video made of this.

[Walter Hale 4]

good. enjoyable wikipedia here on the Physical album and it's domination on the world album and singles charts !

[Walter Hale 4]

Am not sure what has happened but there's no follow-up "Part 9 - Physical - Chapter 2" available or Part 10. Maybe the video's has been deleted owing to copyright claims, or the producer(s) could have chosen to and removed , so therefore the next vid in the Oliviology installment is "Part 11 1965 - 2022 : Olivia at Christmas Through the Years".

Part 10 is coming when the poster has time. The Christmas episode was done first for the last holiday season.

Good on you jetblack Yes the christmas episode i saw half of it, good to see

So did you catch (the now missing) Part 9 Chapter 2 video ? What did that video cover ?

[jetblack]

I am assuming part 10 will be the 'Physical (chapter 2) thus calling the Christmas episode part 11, but I guess we'll have to wait and see.

here's a song from the 80's movie Two of a Kind, but only a excerpt was used in that movie -

[jetblack]

One of my all time fave's is 'Love is a Gift' from her 1998 'Back With A Heart' album.

This version with Anthony Warlow from 'The Main Event' show is also outstanding.
