Olivia Newton-John played a historic concert at the Sydney Opera House backed by the Sydney Symphony Orchestra. She played hits that spanned her amazing four-decade career, and I heard so many people say how amazing it was. Now two years later, she’s releasing that concert on DVD so we can all enjoy it.
“This concert was very special to me as it combined my career as a singer with my personal roots growing up in Australia,” Olivia said in a press release. “I had the honour of performing at the Opera House for the Queen but, this night was even more special as it gave me the chance to perform all of my hits in this historic building – it’s hard to believe that I have been singing for so long!”
It is hard to believe when you look at her (does she ever age?), but there’s no denying it when you check out the track listing. It includes gems like “Xanadu,” “Physical,” “Suddenly,” “You’re the One That I Want,” “Hopelessly Devoted to You,” and “Summer Nights” for all you Grease fans, “I Honestly Love You,” and “Jolene,” and that’s just for starters! There’s two hours of concert on there, plus bonus footage of Olivia visiting her favourite spots in Sydney.
Olivia Newton-John and the Sydney Symphony Orchestra (Live at the Sydney Opera House) will be on sale from March 1.
