Budding Friendship Of Two Youth Idols in Mexico
Translation from Spanish:
Miguel Bosé has just performed in Mexico on a television program with the world famous Olivia Newton-John, one of the most sought after pop singers, especially since a few years ago she starred in the movie “Grease” alongside the then fashionable idol among young people, John Travolta.
Miguel Bosé and Olivia Newton-John did not know each other personally, but, as they say in these cases, they immediately liked each other.
Miquel knew more about Olivia, obviously, but before she went to the television program hosted by the Auteca presenter Daniels Romo, she found out who the other guests would be on that small-town program.
Her representative, Roger Davies, gave Olivia background information that Miguel Bosé was a Spanish singer highly appreciated by the young public.
Miguel Bosé and Olivia Newton-John conversed with each other, participating in a friendly discussion in front of the cameras alongside the aforementioned presenter.
Olivia, a few years older than Miguel, nevertheless has a youthful air and an obvious “hook”, immediately captured by Miguel Rosé
The possibility remains in the air that Miguel could meet Olivia again, who is an artist with a wide audience in the United States.
Let’s remember that Olivia was born in Cambridge, England, but grew up in Melbourne, Australia. She participated in a competition for new singers, the prize of which was a trip to England. She was only fifteen years old.
Later, Olivia became a much-loved performer among 100 young artists, gaining great popularity through the program she hosted on British television, the pop idol of those years, Cliff Richard, still in the spotlight today.
Olivia settled in North America, and in 1973 was considered the best country singer. This also demonstrates that she is a versatile singer who has assimilated very diverse musical genres.
“Grease”, as already mentioned, brought her to international fame thanks to the fact that it was a high-budget film, with entertaining songs and the presence of John Travolta. John and Olivia formed a couple, whose friendship does not go beyond the limits of the set.
Olivia Newton John’s latest hit record is titled “Physical”, with which she has oriented her musical career closer to the rock that is popular today in young circles.
This rock style is precisely what Miguel Bose also cultivates. Therefore, it is not surprising that a reciprocal admiration has grown between Miguel and Olivia, which who knows what can bear fruit tomorrow.
Olivia is a successful international star and also walks like a meteor that has crossed the Spanish borders.
Between last February 3 On March 6th, she embarked on an extended tour of Mexico, performing in the capital and in major cities such as Guadalajara and Monterrey.
In Chile, she was a guest star at the recent Viña del Mar Festival.
She will return to Spain to prepare for recitals in Madrid, Barcelona, and perhaps Valencia or Bilbao. After these performances, she will pack her bags once again to promote her songs in various European capitals.
In England, she wants to conquer the record market, just as Julio Iglesias did months ago with his hit version of Culebra’s “Begin the Begin.”
Miguel Bosé has enormous faith in a beautiful ballad that here in Spain is titled “If This Is Love”, but in its later version will be called “If You Break My Heart”, originally by the British singer-songwriter David Essex, who released a decade ago “Jesus Christ Superstar”.
Currently, three Spanish singers are making headlines all over Europe: Plácido Domingo, Julio Iglesias and, in the meantime, Miguel Hoan, who has decided not to perform in our country this summer. He has also committed to another tour in Halia, where he has observed that “the fans adore him like an idol of the first magnitude”.
