She has discovered what we all did in the late 50s and 60s, there were just some songs of the day that were "made for driving."
Life, as with music, often requires one to let go of the melody and listen to the rhythm

Yup. Beats the heck out of Jesse McCartney and Disney All-Stars in hot rotation...

Olivia Newton-John is the grandchild of 1954 (Physics) Nobel Price winner, Max Born. Did you know that?!!
Searchers amongst my teenage favourite music. Still fond of them, but earnestly a little puzzled they are considered THIS big! But I'm very excited about this forum, and will love to read it regularly, and also contribute!

Perhaps the origin of her nick-name - Olivia Neutron Bomb!

Did you know that Dmitry Mendeleev, the author of the periodic chart, also "worked out" the formula of vodka?..

Hey, if I had to work out that chart, I'd have invented Vodka and more.

They couldn't stick one more e on the end of Mendeleev? It appears they were on sale. One more would give symmetry and balance to the name.

Ok, that's enough out of me.
I'm just happy to be here.
