[@johanna5688]

But would either of those 2 would have wanted to hang out with you? I doubt it, and I'm being respectful here. You see, these Hollywood ppl only have Hollywood friends. They don't care about making friends with the rest. Whatever star dies, comes or goes, it's all the same to me. Just worry about yourself & yours as nobody else will. These famous ppl lived the high life with no financial care whatsoever, unlike the rest of us who live off the crumbs.

[@ijayski]

Out of all the years in music, 1920s jazz, 30s ragtime, 40s big-band, 50s rock n roll, 60s folk, the 1970s were just so magical. It was a decade where rock, soul,R&B, country,pop, were probably all at their best, even disco had its cool moments. Olivia & John were right there in that decade expressing their musical gifts to the world. This song is pure gold and it sounds as good now as it did back then. I just miss those days of bell bottoms, hot summer nights, girls wearing daisy dukes, man oh man was that a fun decade.

Olivia Newton-John, America's Sweetheart and John Denver, America's Folk Balladeer have now both flown back home to heaven to sing for the Angels and Saints in God's Choir in heaven. They both are sadly missed but we will always cherish their lifetime of music and TV appearances. Olivia Newton-John, even though she suffered with cancer for thirty (30) years since 1992, always was very upbeat and never let her cancer prognosis, no matter how grim, get her down. Olivia Newton-John significantly increased our cancer awareness education and raised enough money to build a world class Cancer Center in Melbourne, Australia. May Olivia Newton-John rest in eternal heavenly peace with all the Angels and Saints in heaven forever.
