Olivia Newton-John – Hopelessly Devoted To You (Remixes) (US 12″ Promo)

Burning The Ground Exclusive 1997

“Hopelessly Devoted to You” is a song recorded by English-born Australian singer, songwriter and actress Olivia Newton-John for Grease: The Original Soundtrack from the Motion Picture (1978). It was written and produced by John Farrar and originally performed by Newton-John in the film version of the musical Grease (1978). The song was released in Australia in August 1978 and peaked at number two. It reached number three on the US Billboard Hot 100 and number seven on the Adult Contemporary chart. On the country chart, “Hopelessly Devoted to You” peaked at number 20 and was her first top 20 country hit in two years. Newton-John performed the song at the 21st Grammy Awards in 1979.

The song received an Oscar nomination as Best Original Song at the 51st Academy Awards.

In 1997 American electronic music producer, DJ and remixer Victor Calderone was commissioned to remix the track as promotion for the 20th Anniversary Theatrical re-release of “Grease”. However the remixes were never officially released and remain a sought after ONJ collectible.

In August 2022 after Olivia Newton-John’s passing the song charted once again reching #5 on the US Billboard Digital Song sales Chart.
