Xanadu | Olivia Newton -John & Gene Kelly's '80s/'40s Hybrid E.L.O. Roller Disco | REACTION 

Fang, my ex-girlfriend's cat, had a weird obsession with Olivia Newton-John and this was his favorite movie. Clever boy, he was.

Yes, sadly it was thirty years that she dealt with cancer, on and off. She was first diagnosed in 1992, and she beat it for 21 years, then it came back in 2013, and again in 2017, the last time Stage 4 metastatic breast cancer.

@@IBGECKO thanks for clarifying. As I typed '20' I was thinking '30'. She was an inspirational lady, and much missed.

It’s a celebration of the sub cultures of the 1980s. Sub cultural style was huge in the 80s and was a celebration of individuality and of self expression.

The ENTIRE finale is the BEST!! I got the brain tingles just thinking about it. So, I'mna go watch it. Poor Michael Beck during the "Fool" part!! 😂😂😂

@@FIDIOT-cringe I didn't want to sit through some stupid musical, but try telling a nine year old she can't because no one else has the time to take her to the theater. Mum even threw in popcorn money so okay, fine, let's go. I was pleasantly surprised by this movie.

Andy Gibb was not in the movie, the lead actor is Michael Beck.

He looked similar to Andy Gibb, but as someone else pointed out, that is Michael Beck from "The Warriors"

The best track was Magic.

Kubla Khan BY SAMUEL TAYLOR COLERIDGE [Or, a vision in a dream. A Fragment.] In Xanadu did Kubla Khan A stately pleasure-dome decree: Where Alph, the sacred river, ran Through caverns measureless to man Down to a sunless sea. So twice five miles of fertile ground With walls and towers were girdled round; And there were gardens bright with sinuous rills, Where blossomed many an incense-bearing tree; And here were forests ancient as the hills, Enfolding sunny spots of greenery. But oh! that deep romantic chasm which slanted Down the green hill athwart a cedarn cover! A savage place! as holy and enchanted As e’er beneath a waning moon was haunted By woman wailing for her demon-lover! And from this chasm, with ceaseless turmoil seething, As if this earth in fast thick pants were breathing, A mighty fountain momently was forced: Amid whose swift half-intermitted burst Huge fragments vaulted like rebounding hail, Or chaffy grain beneath the thresher’s flail: And mid these dancing rocks at once and ever It flung up momently the sacred river. Five miles meandering with a mazy motion Through wood and dale the sacred river ran, Then reached the caverns measureless to man, And sank in tumult to a lifeless ocean; And ’mid this tumult Kubla heard from far Ancestral voices prophesying war! The shadow of the dome of pleasure Floated midway on the waves; Where was heard the mingled measure From the fountain and the caves. It was a miracle of rare device, A sunny pleasure-dome with caves of ice! A damsel with a dulcimer In a vision once I saw: It was an Abyssinian maid And on her dulcimer she played, Singing of Mount Abora. Could I revive within me Her symphony and song, To such a deep delight ’twould win me, That with music loud and long, I would build that dome in air, That sunny dome! those caves of ice! And all who heard should see them there, And all should cry, Beware! Beware! His flashing eyes, his floating hair! Weave a circle round him thrice, And close your eyes with holy dread For he on honey-dew hath fed, And drunk the milk of Paradise.

It's not Andy Gibb in this movie, that is Michael Beck, from The Warriors.

It’s strange how this generation don’t know anything before 2024! I find that shocking because prior generations still knew the music of their parents and grandparents, even. Now they know nothing but their own time. It’s so narcissistic and shows how much culture - even pop culture - has been degraded. This guy’s reactions are cringe-worthy and embarrassing.

Gene was 68 years old, and could still roller skate like a champ!

@@IBGECKOGene was amazing and I love how they included a senior icon in this film. They wouldn’t do that these days in this Gen Z generation of social media whores and narcissists.

This was not a “video” it was a motion picture. And it wasn’t weird at all. It was genius and has transcended time and was a masterpiece of pop pastiche, montage and various musical genres. The whole artistic concept is joyful and just transformational. If you can’t get that from a viewing then you’re just thick.

Not Andy Gibb but Michael Beck😊

Not quite true about ONJ. She returned a year later with “Physical,” one of the biggest hits of her career, followed by other top 20 singles.

This is ELO with ONG singing the lead vocal!
