Customer Reviews

Classic soundtrack to match Grease and others4
The movie is not awful - it just lacks a really good story - the story itself is a good idea and was based on another film made years ago. So this is a remake. This is a musical fantasy and that is what the songs and the movie are about. To me it was a collecton of great music videos connected loosely by a story. Olivia looks great and the soundtrack is fantastic and spawned hits such as Xanadu, magic, I'm alive, don't walk away, all over the world - the other tracks are great like Suspended in time and the fall. 6 tracks featuring Olivia and 5 featuring ELO.
it is time the soundtrack was remastered and also the bonus tracks were added like "fool country", "you made me love you" "drum dreams" the B sides to the singles and also remixes of "Xanadu". The album could also do with new sleeve notes and pictures along with the lyrics too

Film was bad, but the songs....5
Well at least the ELO side. Some of the best ballads from Mr. Lynne. Turn up 'Don't Walk Away' to the max and squeeze every last drop out of that faded guitar solo.

Stunningly ethereal - nearly perfect pop music5
From the mysterious and breathless beauty of "Magic", to the sparkling incandescence of "Xanadu", this album should have defined the direction for 80s pop music. The film flopped (although is now a cult favourite), but the album was a huge success. ONJ notched up two Number One hits ("Magic" in the US, and "Xanadu" in the UK), and other hits include "Suddenly" (ONJ and Cliff Richard), "I'm Alive" and "All Over The World" (both Electric Light Orchestra). Buy it, sit back, enjoy - and be transported to a place of great beauty and magic....
