I remember this! I was getting my ears pierced when this was on and I kept turning my head to watch the TV. Hence, uneven holes! But I was 10 and over the moon because Olivia and Donny were on!
haha. The thing I noticed most about this was that they are singing live, but their voices sound basically the same that they do on cds. Now, voices are "fixed" way too much.
I agree. Entertainers of before had so much depth to their character and were naturally good looking with amazing features and just entertaining or interesting outstanding qualties about them that made them a star. Nowadays, dont you notice that you rarely see a handsome guy or beautiful woman who has natural good looking features with amazing voices or appealing personalities or talent? For me, I cant stand the entertainers of today and I am still very young to be saying that.
true, but I guess she's not exactly known for her dancing, either. (check out Xanadu again sometime for some of her, um...simpler moves. LOL) Just the same, I love her!!
I'm glad someone can recognize that he can dance (even if it's for a Mormon/white guy lol), if you're interested you should check out his dance numbers on miss America I think for 1999 and 2000 he dances with a bunch of younger guys.
ashfer-donny has always been known as a song-and-dance-man---all of his brothers (and sister!), since they were very young. their musical numbers were highly choreographed, just like most musical acts in the 50's, 60's and 70's. donnie is an extremely talented performer.
@83survivor No he is not a child molesting nut like Mikey was. He has more talent than Mikey the Molester ever did. One more thing, Donny is still alive and well.

She's about 30 here...she was 'older' in grease (as were MANY actors). Donny is only about 24-25 years old. He sings the song much better than Travolta because Travolta wasn't REALLY a singer, he was an actor that they had sing and fixed his audio to make him song 'better' in most songs. This is a hard song to sing 'live'. Travolta would have never sung it live. But Donny could have never played the 'bad boy' role at all in the movie....
yeah your right a smiley singer who sung songs like puppy love and that wouldn't of been ideal for a rebel part lol but travolta can play school and street "bad boys" and of course gangsters in pulp fiction one of coolest dudes ever is john travolta i feel sorry for him and his wife lately they lost they're 16 year old son :/
@marcusa222 Actually, Olivia is 29, just before her 30th birthday here, and Donny is 21. This was recorded in September of 1978. Donny Was born in December 9, 1957 and Olivia was born in September 26, 1948.
Actually Don would not have taken the part. Marie was offered the part of Sandy, but after she read the script she said she didn't like the message and the Church would not approve. You know, loose your morals and go with the crowd if that is what it takes to be accepted. Not a great message.
HOWEVER this was a great posting, and Donny looked his best at the age here.
Jesus! I never really understood how good a dancer AND singer Travolta was until I saw Donny's effort. it's okay, but lacking Travolta's charisma and charm.
Absolutely !! Travolta , not only could never sing, never did sing, If you notice, Olivia did all the real singing.
But Travolta, can't act. Do you notice that they now have to put him movies with other "stars", because he cannot carry a movie by himself, It will die. And the producers now know that they will lose a ton of money if Travolta is the only "star"
Great Clip. Honestly I love them both, but cannot imagine the movie without John in it. John is always asked to dance, because a lot of stars cannot truly dance, which they both can do.
Well of course Donny Osmond isn't in the movies...he is not an actor. He is a musician! Oh, and by the way, his newest record has gone gold in the UK.
LMAO!! That is so funny! I love Donny Osmond and Olivia. I've met Olivia a few times and she is so nice! I am just totally amused at this duet, I think John is better for this song, but I think it's totally cute!

and. have you seen donny trying to make movies with ONJ? nopee. but travolta has. and they might be starrin in another. over 20 years later.
