OLIVIA NEWTON JOHN IN CONCERT:
Olivia Newton John is one of the top-selling recording artists of all time, but to many fans she'll forever be doe-eyed Sandy from the 1978 blockbuster film Grease. Newton John's Summer Nights residency at the Flamingo in Las Vegas takes its name from one of Grease's most popular musical numbers, and a medley of beloved songs from the film's soundtrack provides the centerpiece of the show. Newton John rounds out the experience with pitch-perfect performances of her early country material, songs from the Xanadu soundtrack, and pop hits like "Physical", making for an unforgettable night of career-spanning hits, something true fans won't want to miss.
BACKGROUND SNAPSHOT:
Born in England and raised in Australia, Olivia Newton John got her start performing with a short-lived Melbourne girl group called Sol Four. She appeared on various Australian TV programs before traveling to Britain in 1966 to record her debut single "Till You Say You'll Be Mine". In 1971 she released her first solo album If Not For You, scoring her first No. 1 hit with the title track and landing another hit with follow-up single "Banks of the Ohio". In addition to landing seven consecutive No. 1's on the Adult Contemporary chart during the '70s, she experienced considerable success as a country artist with a popular cover of John Denver's classic hit "Take Me Home, Country Roads" and her Top 10 hit "Let Me Be There", which earned her a Grammy for Best Female Country Vocal Performance. The pinnacle of her fame came in 1978 with her starring role in the musical film Grease and its accompanying soundtrack, which spent 12 weeks at No. 1 and still appears on Billboard's Top Soundtracks chart today. The '80s saw Newton John shed her good-girl image in favor of the edgier look and sound as she unveiled on 1981's "Physical", an international smash and the decade's top-selling single in the US. In 2014 she debuted her Summer Nights residency show at the Flamingo in Las Vegas, earning praise from critics and fans alike for her elegant performances and perfectly preserved voice.
Was a very good concert. Sound was excellent. Took us back to the 80's which was nice. Songs from Grease were the favorite of the crowd.
Olivia was very personable, involving the audience. I can't believe she can still hit those high notes! She can still move around that stage! It was great to relive her life as she presented it.
I have been to dozens of concerts and could not believe I had the chance to see this legend live. She sang a lot of old songs including pop and country from the 70's and 80's and of course selections from Xanadu and Grease. Olivia sounds amazing and looks fantastic. I only hope I look half as good when I am 67!
Great show, still going strong after all these years! Highly recommended.
Fantastic Concert! Sang her hits and a few from Grease Must see if you have the opportunity
Olivia is a beautiful person inside and out. She really cares for people. For example there was woman in a wheel chair and didn't feel good so she had to leave and Olivia was sad and wished her well. That really came from a good heart. My husband and I saw her perform twice and will continue to go to see her.
No words can describe her show loved every one of her songs . This was my first time seeing her and the band plus the back up singers were great too. Very down to earth. My Mom said her voice had good pitch tones.
We felt this was one of the best shows, we have ever attended. Olivia is a beautiful, warm, caring individual, and can't hide it. We saw her over 40 years ago at the Canadian National Exhibition, (When they had a Grandstand Show). She was incredible then and hasn't lost a beat. The show was fast paced and we didn't want it to end.
We have never seen her live or been at Casino Rama before. Both were worth the experience of going. Very professionally presented, sound and light show only added to the experience. She still looks and sounds great! I will remember it for a long time.
An hour and a half of FUN and it was worth the money
Olivia was just fantastic!! We were in our old days when we sang along with her great songs. Our friends were very impressed with the whole show as my friend at 70 it was his first live concert and to quote him and his wife they were "totally blown away" with Olivia!!!. Olivia was their favourite from long ago so they really enjoyed the refresh of their songs that they enjoyed back when. the entire show was just one of the best we have seen at Rama!!!
I have been a fan of Olivia's for almost 40 years and this concert at Casino Rama was by Far the best ever!! She was gorgeous, chatty, and full of energy for 2 hours! Loved her then and LOVE her more now!!!
Olivia still sings incredibly well all these years later and included songs from all parts of her varied career.
A great concert ... My youth crush made me so happy
HER VOCALS ARE STILL EXCELLENT>>>SHE PLAYED MOST OF HER HITS SHE WAS VERY ENTHUSIASTIC>>>>>>BAND + BACK SINGERS WERE EXCELLENT AS WELL
Olivia's concert last Friday was great. She still has the groove. She seems to be a nice person, interacting with the audience all the time and to her band. Will see her again when she comes back in Rama. The voice is spectacular, still the same from the '70's and very beautiful, still.
Seeing Olivia live was like a dream come true. Great show, good atmosphere, nice people around. Great performance.
First time seeing Olivia Newton-John and enjoyed every moment of the show. Her songs from the movie Grease were the most memorable and spot on. Talked to the audience with a few good stories to share just love it when she did that. Came back for couple of songs in the encore such a great Lady. Definitely recommend seeing her we will likely go see her again if she ever comes to our area again.
Olivia Newton John put on an incredible show. She interacted with the audience very well, she had so much energy. I just couldn't believe how truly great she was. We all had a great time and will definitely be seeing her again. Absolutely awesome!
She has still got it and what a wonderful person to crowd!
