[GreatestSingerEver01]

Who's the best singer, ever? You guessed it right... it's Olivia Newton-John! What a beautiful video to one of my most favorite songs, ever! Thank you for posting.

[seasidelady52]

I was there, as this was filmed at my home on Starwood Ranch in Aspen. I was Olivias's wrangler. The horse was named Shadow, and had sired many of the horses on Starwood. thank you for restoring and posting this!

[tubedude101]

@seasidelady52 you actually know olivia? When was the last time you saw her?

[tikkihut58]

my 2 great love 's

[MrsJessicaVowers]

Beautiful song and video!!!

[DERedhead65]

I remember this well, and one of my most FAV tv specials EVER! Love my John Denver, aw RIP John, and love ONJ too... and I am an outdoors "mountaingirl" at heart so... how lovely... Wish they still made tv specials like this today... ugh.

ONJ looked lovely and she STILL is bless her heart, having had breast cancer and all. She is a "survivor" YEAH!

[ukgladiatorsfan]

She looks so gorgeous..

[AdamsApple1963]

I'd ride off into the sunset with her anytime!

[novemunusunus]

Sorry, that last was confusing. The RIP was for John Denver. Miss that guy.

[novemunusunus]

I remember having a crush on her you wouldn't believe in my early teens, and I remember being glued to the TV when this special was on. Watching it now it's easy to see why. Seeing her as she was then still makes my jaw drop. Thanks for the restoration and the posting. R.I.P. John.

[bctvguy]

You're welcome - I've always loved her too - a real class act.

[BOBBY1976100]

@bctvguy Beautiful eyes and a fantastic smile. Olivia was the ultimate pin-up girl for the 1970's. Remember arguing who was the best with my friends at school, Olivia or Farrah Fawcett (-Majors)! Great job on the revamp, BTW. Could you have a go at her UK BBC TV special Only Olivia from 1977 next, please!

[RaleighChickenMan]

Hey! You can't have her. She was my girlfriend back then!

I was glued the same night. Liked this and the duet of "Fly Away."

Seriously, she remains my ideal woman all these years later and there's really never been anyone to come close to her.

[CapricornDavo]

Olivia looks beautiful as usual!!!

[edditude09]

Love this vid. Any1 notice she almost lost footing including the 1:26 minute of the video?

[bctvguy]

The slip is actually a few seconds earlier at 1:23.

If she wasn't holding on to the horse she would have gone down.

34 years ago, TV budgets were about 20% of what they are now and time was tight. Retakes were rare.

Remote outdoor equipment and videotape was relatively new. Many segments of this special (not this song) were actually shot on FILM !

[cluvsonj]

It looks like she slips just a tad at 1:21 too

[Kimmell2009]

Oh my!

I just remembered her album when you opened it up, there were pictures of her and her animals...I loved that picture of her and that winnie-dog.

[hownos]

lucky horse

[edditude09]

Olivia sure did love her horses. I remember reading about her in the magazines was the ranch she was building in Malibu California...

[bctvguy]

Where to begin -

The guy says there were three channels (probably meant networks)- then names four. By the way, the DuMont network was around since the 1940s. PBS did not begin until 1969 - the successor to NET.

UHF channels started in 1950 in the U.S. and cropped up everywhere after the FCC mandated UHF tuners on all sets starting in 1964.

Every song performed on TV did NOT become an instant hit.

And if the poster doesn't like this stuff - why does he bother to watch it or post?

[budscin]

Thank you so much for posting this! I remember watching this back in 1975 when I was 14. That's when the TV Christmas specials featured talent from just about every genre of entertainment. It's sad that current day Christmas specials are not like that anymore. Long live bctvguy and thank goodness for youtube. Happy holidays!

[wmmurdoch]

Its 2008 and I bet Olivia would still look good in those blue jeans! Thank you again BCTV! You have done a great service for those of us who love Livvie!

[HomesByTim]

I've never seen a woman look better in a pair of jeans. Great smile and super voice too!

[wideworldofsports]

Olivia in her prime.

[tom080955]

BCTV..many thanks!!! I echo Rhiann's comments two fold...one request to make it complete...the eagle and the hawk.

Thx,T

[RhiannanAR1]

OMG - I can't believe it. That was my favourite Christmas Show and you have not one but two wonderful videos from that!! TY so much bctvguy! No doubt this one was digitally restored by you as well. I'd love to try to find this show on ebay. Ty for this!! Saved this one too..;_) Do you have more from this TV special you plan to post? I think many of us would love it.

[wldmtnkat]

Wonderful! I love this video. Thanks so much for such good work. Its fabulous.

[bilgun3]

Will someone please restore the beautiful video of Denver, Newton-John, and Valerie Harper singing together? Is the whole show available on VHS?

[kancoyote]

What a nice surprise to see this video!! YOU DID A GREAT JOB!! DASH

[captainscott2]

very well done, sir. I don't think that John would mind at all. Peace......

[HomesByTim]

Fantastic job. The greatest country music singer ever. The Nashville establishment may have rejected her, but her hits and sales still top most Country stars to this day. That says it all!

Thanks for posting!

[cmbtravelagent]

thanks again, you are great and this is from one of my favorite CD's. I love this song. Thanks again. Chris

[oliviafan1]

Very nicely done. I love this song and video.
