My heart's a bit broken over that one! Oddly one of my favorites of hers was her rendition of Waltzing Matilda, a song which once described the Aussie spirit before it was polluted with woke!

"Waltzing Matilda" and "I am Australian" are two of my favorites. "I am Australian" was written by Bruce Woodley of the Seekers. Here is a video of them singing both, along with "Georgy Girl" (not a favorite of mine) and the Australian national anthem (which would be the third best choice for an anthem behind the two listed in the first sentence). This from the pregame ceremony for the 1994 Aussie Rules Football Grand Final from a packed Melbourne Cricket Ground:





The locker room scenes are of the Geelong Cats, who unfortunately got blown out in the game.
Dang!

So sad to hear this. She put up a long brave battle with breast cancer. What a lovely and gentle woman with quite a range in musical genres.

Ha, I have that link pinned to my favorites. Waltzing Matilda represented a clash between common courtesy and civility offered with frontier mores of hospitality and the incivility of instituted law, resulting from "civilization".

























R.I.P. Olivia was one of my first crush.

I can't remember which was first, Olivia or Farrah, but those were my first two. Both left early.

When I was like 5 years old my parents bought me my first record player and one 45 - Olivia Newton-John 'Have You Ever Been Mellow" and "Sam". Only record I had, so I played that nonstop for a while.

Rest in Peace, Olivia. I am showing my age, but my first celebrity crush was Sophia Loren in Boy on a Dolphin (1957). My second was Hayley Mills in The Parent Trap (1961). My first face-to-face teenybopper crush died about 20 years ago, but I have recently reconnected with her truly amazing family.

Here is Olivia with an Aussie star-filled cast (Hugh Jackman, Olivia, Keith Urban, Russell Crowe and Nicole Kidman) performing one of my favorites, one of three (with "Waltzing Matilda" and "I am Australian") that would be better choices than the current Australian anthem:



My first crushes from the 70s when I was growing up were?

Linda Evans Big Valley alive
Laura Brannigan CHIPs dead
Randi Oaks CHIPs alive
Cathrine Back Dukes of Hazard alive
Jaqclynn Smith Charlie's Angels alive
Kate Smith Charlie's Angles alive
Judy Landers Vegas alive

My first commercial cassette was Olivia's greatest hits. Wore that tape out...

Very intense guy. Refused (mostly) to play the Hollywood games, and so missed out on the kind of fame he could’ve had. Although the was still famous even without playing the games.
RIP Anne Heche, who was 53. She lived a rough life. Her AIDS and herpes infected father raped her repeatedly as an infant until she was 12. He passed the herpes along to her. She suffered from mental health issues. Had that incident about 20 years ago where she parked her car and was wondering on a country road with no top on. Picked up by a stranger who called the police and she told them she was God and was taking everyone up in a spaceship. Apparently she had multiple personalities. The whole relationship with Ellen... this recent car accident where she crashed into an apartment complex garage and into a house. She was beautiful, but a total whack job.
Was sad hearing what had happened to her in that crash. I was unaware of the details you provided on her early life. To me, that explains a lot.
