Olivia Newton-John, a national treasure and the world feels more empty without her❤

🙏 Prayers for her 🙏 family
R.I.P. Olivia Newton-John you will always be Sandy Olsson be an honorary Pink Ladies to me.
Aww. Oww. My heart hurts.
How sad she was to young to go what a great artist she was.
This is the saddest day ever. Rest In Peace beautiful soul. 💔🇨🇦
Oh my goodness!! We will miss you.
Maybe I hang around here
A little more than I should
We both know I got somewhere else to go
But I got something to tell you
That I never thought I would
But I believe you really ought to know
I love you
I honestly love you
You don’t have to answer
I see it in your eyes
Maybe it’s better left unsaid
But this is pure and simple
You must realize
That it’s coming from my heart and not my head
I love you
I honestly love you
I’m not trying to make you feel uncomfortable
I’m not trying to make you anything at all
But this feelin doesn’t come along every day
And I shouldn’t blow my chance
When I got the chance to say
I love you I love you
I honestly love you
If we both were born
In another place in time
This moment might be ending with a kiss
But there you are with yours
And here I am with mine
So I guess we’ll just be leaving it at this
I love you
I honestly love you
I honestly love you
I grew up with her music. She was my favorite. Will greatly miss her. Goodbye Sweet soul.
Definitely an American icon.. Lots of bubble gum pop songs and movies. Incredibly talented and beautiful! 73 seems too young to die. She should have had decades more to live. Cancer such a dreadful disease!
What a talented beautiful soul, such a sad loss. As a radio dj at an Easy-Listening station in the early ’90s, I loved playing the two Olivia Newton-John songs in the playlist- the gorgeous gem “Magic” and “Have You Never Been Mellow”. Rest in Peace, Olivia.
RIP Sandy✨ Olivia Newton – John as the days roll on, my fond memories are coming to a end.✌🏼💜
