  • @loopdis I'm not sure what your point was with that comment. The point I was making is that many of today's current "artists" don't make the same quality music. I do live in the now, thank you AND I know how to compare.

  • wow.She's soo happy here...omg ...beautiful...thanks for sharing!!

  • I wouldn't know, I've never had the time to watch Lady Gag or Bouncing.

  • olivia e a melhor e sabe como cantar ao vive d qualquar maneira e ela passa emoçao na musica

  • She is lypsynching.

  • @dethiphoptv - Incorrect. This was back when artists actually knew their craft. Olivia is one of the absolute best singers in history. She's so good live you'd swear nobody could be that perfect with pitch and tone, but she is.

  • And by the way, I know this song like the back of my hand, and can safely affirm that she is not lip synching.

  • My God, what did she do to her hair?!? I think I was born in the craziest decade for hair. Great song, though, and great lady.

  • I don't think there is another voice like Olivia's. She is the Elvis of the female singers.Oh, there are others who are awesome. But there is something about Olivia.

  • wow, she's kinda Elvis/Tom Jones , but very feminine and sexy at the same time .....god I love her , and have since I was 13yrs old! I love her delicate but emotive voice!! Powerful!!

  • That bad-a** band was the Tom Scott band, phenomenal jazz sax player best known for his work with the L.A.Express. It was an all star band Tom put together for Olivia's US tour. By the way...Tom also did all the riffs you hear Lisa play on sax on the Simpsons.

  • OMG I'm getting to old to still love this song

  • She's both an angel and a superstar!

  • Oh, I'm still in love with her. Shh, don't tell my wife, lol. I love the way her hair looks. Don't you??!!

  • Oh, i stil in love with her. Shh, don't tell my wife. I love the way her hair looks!!

  • Total class act.

  • she's got a bad-a** band

  • if there ever was a muse

  • sweet but strong voice, georgeous !!

  • @jely57 not lip-synching... perfect

  • @itzjoeymac

    Dude, she clearly is lip synching, this is not a real live performance, the vocals actually sound like they are nothing more than the album vocals

  • @1980Triumph Yes, and the sun revolves around the earth too!

  • @SAAB7899 take another listen... she is that good

  • Comment removed

  • @SAAB7899 gotcha Saab... ;-)

  • @1980Triumph dude, you're nuts. It's very different from the album

  • Ok. This sounds corny as HELL [and I'm a 48 yr old man], but everything about this woman gives me goose bumps! She is COMPLETELY appealing as a woman, as an entertainer...SIGH!

  • I love her but wish she never had this hair cut,lol

  • she wears a cool mollett!

  • This is a live performance and she is completely pitch perfect.

    A truely great singer.

  • wish i was older back then i would've married her. i love you olivia

  • At 6 years old, I *needed* to see this concert every time it played on HBO. Then, in 1990 I found the video and have it to this day. It's a sensational concert :)

  • i am still in love with this woman after all the year of hearing her sing

  • ONJ blows the current auto-tuned-to-death female singers out of water.

  • I can remember this being played on the radio when it was new, back when i first started shcool,1979.

  • From where I stand, you are home free, the planets align so rare, there's promise in the air, and I'm guiding you Yes these are lyrics that walk

  • Beautiful and very talented.

  • How wonderful she IS...

  • Born in '70 and still a fan!...

  • Born in '81 and still a fan. Love this song. 

  • Somebody says "100% WOMAN" about this performance.

    I agree.

  • several months ago, somedy says: "100% WOMAN" , I agree.

  • SHE'S SO WONDERFUL, WISH WE WERE FRIENDS!

  • @acecashexpress We are, you've always been in my mind!

  • from another world...wow

  • Un angel se escapado del cielo !!!!!!!

  • So good! I just bought this 45 for a quarter!

  • lyrics rock!

  • What is it about this song that gives me goosebumps? Beautiful touching song.

  • Fantastic singer, fantastic personality and fantastic empathy.

  • Nice girl, nice beautiful legs

  • si, es algo asi como la chica perfecta y correcta ,enamora y por supuesto una señora voz . no como lamierdosa de madona o esperpentos parecidos

  • ONJ was just jaw droppingly gorgeous. Back when I was a kid, she was it for me.

  • Screw Gaga and Beyonce.  They just don't make 'em like this anymore.

  • @jwharcup76 every time you mention other artists names you make them more popular.. maybe that is really your intention.. Some more advice, try living in the "NOW"

  • ese LP fue mi consentido por años!!!! gracias por subir el video!!!

  • ese LP fue mi cinsentido por años!!!! gracias por subir el video!!!

  •  I ball my eyes out everytime i watch this.

  • Is that a Prophet 5 Synth I hear? The outer space sound at the beginning is exactly what they used all throughout the musical CATS.

  • I love this song.

  • She loves to show off those long sexy legs. I don't mind looking at them.

  • Hot Babe, Acid trip intro

  • My mom took me to this concert when I was 3. I remember not understanding the concept of assigned seating, and we argued about why we couldn't sit closer to the stage. And yeah, I watched it obsessively on HBO later, and still have the vhs. A few years ago a random dude at my house saw the vhs tape on the shelf. He freaked out and said "I was at this concert, I am IN THIS VIDEO, I've never seen anyone who has it."

  • @m1lkm4n Have been looking for that video for 25 yrs. would love to have a copy of it. I also watched it numerous times on HBO. When she sang Sam, I fell in love with her voice. larryoblack@yahoo.com

  • @shadyside10 you can buy this on dvd now, Try amazon...

  • This concert was on HBO when I was little. still have it on video tape

  • Ahhh the first concert I ever went to...then 2 years later The Victory Tour with The Jacksons. I miss the 80's.

  • Pantyhose!!!

  • This one is not lipsynched/yay/this is my Olivia.. grew up on her song's in the VW van's and beetle's

  • damn her and Farrah Fawcett were made from the same mold. That was mold was broken after these 2 were born

  • I remember I use to watch this on HBO everytime it aired. Memories.

  • Pure performance, pure music....That is what is lacking today!

    She is talent!

  • I wish to have this dvd in concert. Where i can buy it..?

  • Go scowling on eBay and Amazon and check out thrift stores...oh, and Craigslist.

  • @cava1962 Hi cava! Well, I´m from Costa Rica and I bought it here. I know that this dvd is on sale in USA. Let me know if you found it ok?

  • sooooooo HOT

  • She was 34 here... so hot it's crazy. Welsh-German beauty! :) Xanadu hair was prettier though.

  • Saw her live last March in Fl. Oh My Gawwd, she was still this good if not better

  • that intro sounds like some familiar.... love olivia

    great times

  • Is from Xanadu the musical film. Is a great intro for any occasion. Great music, cool effects. With all the high tech stuff we got now, there are very few that are as talented like her around.

  • Proper bitch rock, av it! Now I must go to my room to be alone:).

  • She sounds great in concert!

  • 100% WOMAN!

  • i'll be god in you

  • Awesome 80s video effects!

  • you gotta love livvy a total schoolboy masturbatory extravaganza.and what a brilliant band landau,vega,popswell and feiten.class.livvy is soooooooo!! hot!!

  • la mas hermosas de todas las artistas ...de todos los tiempos, el amor platonico de todos en la decada de los 80s.

  • Eternally good, invincible !

  • she was sexy and not slutty. it was a subtler look and she sang so good.and that red outfit and panties just sooooo!! hot!!

  • so good!!!

  • She is so amazing! I love her dress!

  • A famous astrologer gave me the good news a while that my best astrological mate match among female celebrities was......Olivia Newton John !

    Aaaah...t'were it only to have been!

    Tom in Utica NY

  • thats nice

  • even with the Butch haircut shes hot

  • It's was the 80's - it wasn't a butch haircut then....!!!

  • Oh it must have been around the time she was doing the movie Two of a Kind (1983).

  • What a great song what a beautiful voice what a beautiful woman...She gets all the things U need to get to be a super classic star...never oldie but always goldie..

  • I agree! Too bad some or other people are sooo "busy" with (modern) pop creatures like American Idle (sarcasm intended)!

  • Magnificent. One reason she and her ilk are so superior (mostly) to the bimbos today is that they weren't burning themselves out on dope and booze, publicly humiliating themselves (deliberately), and were just better people, especially her.

  • What a stunning and beautiful performer she is, very sexy outfit and love the attitude she has in this entire concert performance.

  • good performance. bass player got just a wee bit out of hand/upstaging, at the end, but I am sure Olivia gave him the proper beat-down post haste.

  • "From where I stand, you are home free, the planets align so rare, there's promise in the air, and I'm guiding you". Very difficult to find a line such as this in anyone of today's songs. Minds back then semmed much more deeper.

  • I noticed the same thing. 80s music is lyrically more interesting. Maybe that's why so many of us still love these songs.

  • Ya, and if they are deep now, they're on something!!! lol

  • Olivia is Magic!

  • I agree! Have to believe Olivia AND HER FANS are magic!

  • MOLTO SEXY L'OLIVIA...

    :-)

  • realmente para enamorarse de OLIVIA

  • A beautiful song and a beautiful lady!!

  • Let's not forget she was very classy.

  • Love her, Love the song! This is an outstanding performance! However that hair is awful!!!!!!!

  • fantastic

  • Dude...If your focused on her HAIR, you've completely missed the joy that is Olivia Newton John.

    That voice, that face, those legs that last forever...

    So she's sporting a mullet. I forgave her before I ever saw it.

  • lmao Besides she was working it back then with that hair lol

  • Ya, I agree...I'm not big on short hair on girls...but who gives a F*CK!!! Your right, she makes up for it in other areas.

  • @Brian77TX yeah I always hate short haired women but Olivia is the only girl I would make a exception for :)

  • @OfficialRobbieMason that was going to be my comment . . . she is the only woman that ever rocked that haircut. Every other woman who tried it after Olivia just looked ridiculous.

  • She killed her hair by cutting it like that. Should have left it like it was in 1980. She was simply ethereal the other way.

  • OMG, I remember watching this on HBO. I must have watched it over a hundred times when it was on telly.

  • God, I love this woman's voice...Very easy on the eyes, too.

  • love you olivia.......love the concert, love the songs........love it

  • i like this. nothing over the top. just plain and simple

  • She's beautiful but that haircut was retarded. Looks like Patrick Swayze's leader.

  • Ahaha, that was the style. I was kind of giggling at those boots, but then again I was wearing leg warmers with socks and sandals that year, so I am no one to judge. :)

  • Yes, that's a silly haircut, but Olivia was so gorgeous she would have looked good with green or purple hair. Or bald!

    And she was one of the few women back in the '80s who could really pull off that short-tunic-and-leggings look popularized by Pat Benatar.

  • Thanks. Its amazing as a Guy to see her and find her totally alluring and sensual. And she is not revealing too much. Just beauty and charisma. She could sure work it. Nice memories. I'm actually more appreciative 30 + years later. You can see why she was so HUGE.

  • She was sexy but classy...today's "artists" are sorely lacking in both. By the time Beyonce makes another video, her cunt will be showing...

  • haha, you are correct...and the music today still cant compete with these classic gems....long live analog!!

  • The World was more innocent in Entertainment then. So dark now.

    Look at how pure, sensous and magical this is. And still sexy. But THAT is a Lady.

    Pure of heart and beautiful. Class, elegance and talent. And no lip-synching here folks.

  • agreed

  • Totally agree

  • i agree

  • BEAUTIFUL VOICE.

    THANKS

  • Such a beautiful woman with a beautiful voice.

  • amazing song!

  • She sure looks like Sandy from "Grease"

  • You are kidding aren't you?

  • No really..they could pass for identical twins..don't you see it??

  • it is sandy from grease joe,lol

  • it is sandy joe ,lol

  • thank god she has a awesome band

    gotta love that bass and drums,....TIGHTTTT

    not to mention tha AWE-MAZING vocals....

    love yah olivia

    *****

  • It's a real pleasure seeing this again after so many years. I have some of her live performances on the Video Gold DVD's, but I hadn't seen this one since it first aired on HBO in 1983. Many thanks, JavierL2.

  • good Lord! ds s top-notch band led by d great sax player tom scott! guitarist michael landau, drummer carlos vega, bassist pops P...top-notch back-up vocals..led by no othr than former buckimham vocalist, dennis tufano!!!!

  • Thats one hot bit of bass playing.

  • This has to be her best performance live of this great song!!!!!!!!!

  • The best singer in the world

  • ....in the universe.

  • Highly worthy of extreme violent ejaculation.

  • the basslines were just cool! who was the bass player? Olivia is a very gorgeous and talented singer!

  • Pops Popwell - formerly of The Crusaders. I brought my daughter to see her on this same tour in Baton Rouge, LA. I was not really expecting much - but I was really impressed with her vocals and with her band, which was led by Sax player Tom Scott, with Carlos Vega on drums, and Michael Landau on guitar.

  • This is ALL Live. Listen to it. Just top brass recording and sound at the time. If you LISTEN you can hear her every nuance. Much different then ANY recording. She was in top form here.

  • I saw this concert...she was phenomenal!  Today's singer can't hold a stick to this. No overdubs here folks..Olivia could SING

  • Yeah, unlike Titney or Madogga or that Hannah Montana thing.

  • Freakin' Amazing Song!!!

  • Angel-Superstar. IN HER PRIME !

    : )

  • this woman even made a mullet sexy , :-)

  • lol

  • she's always my angel !

  • I was at this concert back in 1982 at the Dee Event Center in Ogden Utah. I was 12 back then and had 1st row seats, it was a great concert I wish i could get a copy of the concert, it brings back great memories.

  • It's out on DVD in Europe. Check the UK Amazon site.

  • Another great performance, I never tire of seeing or hearing her singing this song, one of the best, she rocks!

  • a very catchy tune

  • MAGIC!!!!!

  • This song is second to none when it comes to conjuring a magical and romantic atmosphere... the live version's intro really plays up the mystical allure of the song to unprecedented heights.

  • Amazing. She is the best

  • i would loved to have met her and gone out with her. amazing australia's best

  • take a number behind about 5 million others... lol

  • such a beautiful woman. god'sbest

  • Amazing yes! but Gods Best might be Darlene Zschech who shares an uncanny vocal resemblance and  heritage and sings for HIM with HIllsong. I did love me some OLIVIA..... sweet
