This was a great movie. People who say it was crap don’t have good taste in movies. ONJ was incredible in the movie, and Gene Kelly was incredible too. The music soundtrack for the movie is one of the best ever of any movie of all time. Almost every song in the movie was incredible. ONJs music was just incredible. ONJ has to be the most incredible lady for the combination of voice and beauty, she was one of the most beautiful ladies of all time, and then with one of the most incredible voices too. She sang Physical for the Australian entry for the Worlds Fair for 1982.

My brother and I saw this movie when it first came out on cable, on HBO I think, probably in 82 or 83. I was around 7 years old at the time, my brother probably 9. Xanadu became the first album that me and my brother ever asked our parents to buy us. We didn't care too much for the plot of the movie, but Olivia Newton-John was hot, and the music was awesome. The album is still, in my opinion, the greatest soundtrack of all-time.

Robert Greenwald's "Xanadu" (1980) with Michael Beck along with Dame Olivia Newton-John and Gene Kelly in their next to last performances. Excellent music, including the 1981 Grammy-nominated "Magic" plus dazzling lighting, editing, sets, scoring adaptation, choreography, special effects and so much more that make this cult film an enjoyable fun loving experience. A Universal Release. (c)1980 Universal Studios.

This whole films addresses the funadmental human condition of self-aware consciousness, creativity and self doubt, all without ever failing to be fabulous. It's posibly my favourite film. I think being obsessed with this film as a kid informed the rest of my life. Literally if everyone just chilled out for a bit and danced around all floaty and cool the world would be a much nicer place.

Hearing and seeing this brings back a whole range of emotions that encapsulate a time of life that I only realise now, being 40, that I miss and treasure so much. The feelings this scene evokes feeds my soul to this day. Olivia Newton John has unequivocally shaped me. This movie, along with Grease are the epitome of greatness, movies that just don’t get made any longer.

Not a bad film, but the musical score was brilliant and sassy Olivia made it one to watch. This opening was superb

Ah neon pink, 80s and Olivia, best things in life. Some great songs in this movie, cheesy at times but that's what makes movies like this, the Pirate Movie and Grease 2 so great, cheesiness and great tunes! lol Xandu ftw!

Sandahl Bergman in this scene shows that Valeria in Conan the Barbarian was a muse, sent to inspire Conan to become a King.

Jeff Lynne is one of my favorite composers for Miss Newton-John in this plus for my other favorite soprano Agnetha Faltskog (the blonde in ABBA) - good times with pop down from Mr. J.S. Bach who started it all in a major way (big fan and player of his on some fairly large instrumentation - these remind me a lot of each other.....)

I really like this because everyone needs a muse. If you read Greek mythology, these were the daughters of Zeus. Their soul function was to go out and visit mankind and to inspire them to be better and greater. This amazing dance when they all return to life always made me in awe. I have never been one from musicals or dance, but this was one of the best shows of its time. The passing of Olivia hit me more than I thought it would.

Olivia's character is Terpsichore. The muse of dance. There is a part of the movie where she tries to tell her real name to the main character, and actually says the first half of the real name before she's interrupted. Her mother was Mnemosyne (also voiced in the movie), the goddess of memory. This scene is their divine transition to the mortal plane. The image is a gateway.

The fourth Muse that comes alive (at 0:40) is Sandahl Bergman who also played Valeria in Conan the Barbarian. You get a good look at her at 2:02 through 2:07. She BY FAR is the best dancer in the bunch.

Sandahl Bergman... you can tell she lived dancing... her turns and spins are exquisite. You can even see it in "Red Sonja" when she battles Sonja...the way she moved. Then I see this and find out she's a dancer... all make sense!

The thing I have noticed - the 1980s dopiness that was originally attributed to this film no longer seems to exist. Now people are seeing it, albeit with pretty clumsy CGI, as positive and inspiring. I personally always loved the film because it's message was clear to me........look for your muse.....look for that which gives you inspiration.

Holy this is GOOD, so poignant to the core ...Its one of those tune that resonates with the violins and the pretty /talented /neon glowing girls dancing around...I remember first time i heard that i was i young teen and i thought " i wanna comb my hair, wear my jeans jacket, meet hot chicks and roller skate under black lights til my legs fold back " silly right Anyhoo, ELO did such a uber job on this soundtrack. I kinda stop listening to it for a bit but i rediscovered it and listened to it VERY LOUD... a time piece!
