When we heard that Olivia Newton-John had passed away from breast cancer, we immediately started humming the tune "Have You Never Been Mellow?" We can't figure out why that one, of all her songs, came to us. Couldn't one of the others like, "Summer Nights" or "Hopelessly Devoted to You," moved into the crannies of our cranium instead? Any one of her 11 gold singles would have been better, except "Let's Get Physical." Definitely not "Let's Get Physical."
As the saccharine melody wafts through our brain, we want to pay tribute to the beautiful British-Australian singer who provided the soundtrack for our school years back in the '70s and early '80s, at least when we were feeling sweet and pure. For other times, we'd be blasting the Police or the Eagles.
