I've been a fan of Olivia since 1978. I cannot remember much Olivia pre 1978 but when I first heard her name in connection with Grease I remember thinking Oh I like her. It grew from then on and my first album was her 1977 Greatest Hits on cassette. I still have this cassette although not the means to play it. Anyone who grew up in the 70s and 80s remembers how difficult it was to find Olivia memorabilia and even to know when she was to be on TV. This did increase the excitement when you did manage to get hold of a photo, press article or see a TV clip. However, the internet opens it up to all of us. I led Only Olivia for several years and wrote many pages of the original version of this website.

I love Olivia's sweet, clear voice and also her personality. She was a role model for me growing up - kind (one of the best characteristics a person can aim for), funny, classy, beautiful and concerned for the planet. The fact that she is a cancer thriver also, draws me more to her in my later years.

The idea of this website is to create an encyclopedia of Olivia's work throughout the years. There's a lot of catching up to do and I've missed some things from 2007 onwards due to a change in career and various life challenges. Also we've had to re-design much of the website to make it mobile friendly which is taking time. Parts of this website are dated as we started in the early 2000s. This was when we all had dial-up modems and many of us paid for internet calls. Therefore, we needed to keep images fairly small and this shows in some of the earlier pages.

We are not aiming to be cutting edge for the latest news. For that I'd highly recommend Philippe's blog which always has something new (and old) almost every day of the year.

We hope you enjoy the website, as much as we have putting it together, we hope it is a testimony to Olivia's talent. It continues to be a work in progress.
