Warm Day - Music Makes My Day review
OLIVIA NEWTON JOHN, Music Makes My Day (Pye Int. 28185).
Fact is that Olivia is making the day for lots of people now. She started out as just another British singer, then eased into the American country market, and she’s had hits and headlines ever since. She is NOT a truly distinctive talent, but she is quite remarkably pretty, and her voice can bend itself to cope with virtually any kind of number.
Her voice is friendly and warm, and it doesn’t outstretch itself, and it is invariably working over some top talent in the backing teams.
She, Olivia, has won umpteen popularity polls so it probably doesn’t matter to the populace that she will improve that much more. At this moment she probably doesn’t “live” vocally with some of her competitors; but what she is (a) nice and (b) bubbly and (c) well-publicised, specially with the Eurovision scene on the way.
