latest ONJ release

This cd has some good songs, some were on her (2) album and so they aren't new tracks, but all in all if you like ONJ you will like this record. October 5, 2008

Certainly worth hearing...........

As I understand it, this album is a benefit production for cancer research. It is a quite well-done collection of folk/ballad duets with a variety of artists. The prize goes to the opening cut with Delta Goodrem ["Right Here With You"], but the entire project is worthy of praise, with "The Water Is Wide" being especially good.

Olivia is certainly NOT an unknown quantity; she has given us a rather massive selection of records over the years. I'm still in love with her character in "Grease"...and, if the cover photo is accurate, she's the hottest 60 year old I ever saw. She's not to everybody's taste [no singer is], but if you like her, you'll like this. September 23, 2008

Intriguing

I hope Olivia always keeps on recording. Every new project offers insinuating songs with meaningful themes, intelligent lyrics and beautiful production. As the years have passed, she has become ever more insightful and reflective. She is way, way beyond the hit record stage, into the sheer artistic. This is a lovely collection. September 9, 2008

Olivia at her best!

This is an album that could be a huge commercial hit!
Every song is a winner, we have all been waiting for a CD of this quality.
I see some of these songs possibly getting radio air play ( which is rare for any artist over the age of 21 these days)
For the pop loving Olivia fans , your wait is over, this album is FANTASTIC!
Olivia Newton-John sizzles on this CD! August 30, 2008
