Madonna - Open Your Heart (Matt Pop Club Mix)

First track from the Remixers United "Like A Virgin" Tribute 2-CD Compilation!  Released later today, April 10.

0101 Like A Virgin (RCB 30 Years Megamix)

Totally Hot is Olivia Newton-John's ninth US and tenth international studio album. Released in November 1978, it became her first solo Top 10 (No. 7) album since 1975's Have You Never Been Mellow. Dressed on the album cover all in leather, Newton-John's transformation in Grease from goody-goody "Sandy 1" to spandex-clad "Sandy 2" emboldened her to do the same with her music. The album's singles "A Little More Love" (No. 3 Pop, No. 94 Country, No. 4 AC), "Deeper Than The Night" (No. 11 Pop, No. 87 Country, No. 4 AC), and the title track (No. 52 Pop) all demonstrated a more aggressive and uptempo sound for Newton-John.[3] (The "Totally Hot" single was remixed for commercial release adding an instrumental bridge that lengthened the song by over thirty seconds from the original album track. As well, "Deeper Than The Night" was remixed to 4:56 and released in Europe on a 12" disco single format.) Newton-John filmed promotional videos for all three singles and wrote two of the album's tracks, "Borrowed Time" and "Talk To Me".

Although the album de-emphasized country, it still reached No. 4 on the Billboard Country Albums chart. Newton-John released the B-side, "Dancin' 'Round And 'Round," of the "Totally Hot" single to Country radio - the first time since her 1975 single, "Let It Shine/He Ain't Heavy ... He's My Brother", that Newton-John worked both sides of a single to different radio formats. "Dancin' 'Round And 'Round" peaked at No. 29 Country [4] and is her last charted solo Country airplay single to date. (The song also charted Pop (No. 82) and AC (No. 25) after Totally Hot completed its chart run.)

The album was certified Platinum in the United States[5] and the single, "A Little More Love", was certified gold.[6] The album only reached No. 30 in the UK (where it was also released as a limited edition picture disc) but it was certified Gold[7] and the single "A Little More Love" reached No. 4 on the UK Singles Chart (itself certified Silver), and was even a surprise Number One single in Israel. The album was a Top 10 success in Australia, Canada and Japan (although none of its singles charted in Japan). The album was re-released in Japan during 2010 featuring two bonus tracks - an extended version of "Totally Hot" and "Love Is Alive" from her 1981 live album, "Love Performance."

The come back that never had a chance to be realised was, for Olivia Newton-John, low on her list of priorities in 1992. A diagnosis of cancer changed everything. The world tour was canceled and Back To Basics – The Essential CollectionOlivia Newton-John Not Gonna Be The One (Mirror Ball's Emergency Remix) 1971-1992, which was released to remind people that Olivia was still around, failed to ignite as all publicity and promotion was shut down in order to give ONJ time to KICK CANCER’S ASS!!

Olivia Newton-John's cancer fight who magazine

 

The four new songs selected to open the greatest hits package, I Need Love (of which a mammoth remix is in the works), I Wanted To Be Wanted  and the two songs that would’ve done well had they had a chance to fly were the first commercial tracks release by Newton-John since 1988’s The Rumour. The strongest of these is ‘Not Gonna Be The One’. I’ve taken Ghassemi’s remix of Emergency and worked this killer track into something new and fresh and the bridge is reworked and extended so Olivia fans will LOVE it.

The other track is the Diane Warren penned, ‘Deeper Than A River’, which show cased Olivia’s strong vocals but was no match for the hits Warren had been writing for Cher and Celine Dion. With no video or promotion (due, of course, to Olivia’s cancer diagnosis) it shouldn’t have stood a chance but miraculously returned Olivia to the Top 20 of the Adult Contemporary singles chart in the US. I’ve transformed Deeper Than A River with the help of A.N.D.Y’s remix of Freedom, What For? breathing (I think) new life into a forgotten gem.

The album that effectively ended Olivia's popular music career and represented her final proper pop 'hit' turns a remarkable 30 this month.

Boasting album photography by Helmut Newton (front and rear) and Herb Ritts (inner), this was a sultrier Olivia than anyone had seen before. She has since conceded that this was part of MCA's vision for the album, pushing the image change prompted by the end of 'Grease' and the 'Physical' single to new extremes. Produced by longtime mentor John Farrar, 'Soul Kiss' took his signature warm sound and gave it a more synthesised edge. The result is an album that sounds both like and unlike Olivia, a sort of sonic experiment that most fans would admit yielded mixed results. The critics felt the same way...

People magazine wrote:

'Olivia convinced everyone with her 1981 album Physical that she was aware of sex. Recent events in her personal life would seem to have sufficiently reaffirmed that awareness. So why this exercise in supersleaze, which runs from the kink of the jacket photograph through the tune Culture Shock, which seems to be a musical tribute to ménages à trois? Overnight Observation is about a doctor trying to seduce a woman patient. You Were Great, How Was I?, an otherwise appealing duet with Beach Boy Carl Wilson backed by producer John Farrar's version of B.B. harmonies, tries to play on its title, without a smattering of wit. In the title tune, Olivia wails on about getting down on her knees and sighs passionately. So curious is this preoccupation with the details of mating that it detracts mightily from the musical aspects of the LP. Farrar and Newton-John have developed a distinctive style for her that carries over across country-pop-rock boundary lines. There's still that almost eerie combination of her cool, frail voice (now mixed with occasional snarls that are apparently supposed to be sexy) and the hypnotic riffs of his synthesizers. As the clever Physical proved, there's a dry ice kind of heat to Newton-John's music that stands on its own; there's no need for all the blatant tarting up. If Olivia's career keeps going this way, just about the only thing she will be able to do next is record an album of duets with Dr. Ruth'.

Rolling Stone called it a 'good-to-excellent album':

After a long period of corporate fine tuning, MCA released Olivia's Soul Kiss with a kinky Helmut Newton cover, a lean John Farrar production and a fun single, the album's title track. Originally (and wisely) passed on by Tina Turner, "Soul Kiss" is just right for Newton-John. She proves once again that she is the best pure pop singer working today. Check her out live sometime, mark her for range, pitch, phrasing, energy, ballsiness and, yes, commitment to the songs, and see if you don't agree.

Too bad the rest of the material doesn't match up. There are good songs, but no other bull's-eyes, and a pair of embarrassments. "Queen of the Publication" is a Livvy-as-crack-journalist fantasy that would have worked better as the storyboard to a feminine-deodorant commercial. In "Culture Shock" Newton-John asks her hurt beau if her other beau can move in with them. It's a male pipe dream in which nothing but the pronouns have been changed.

Olivia... may be cut wrong for this week's pop meat rack, and maybe for next week's too. If that's so, the fault lies with wardrobe and one or two ill-chosen songs'.
