Rest Your Love On Me...

A time to "unwind" and to relax at this time of the evening... listening to the sweet and gentle voices of my favorite singer Olivia Newton John. I am still very mesmorized by her soft gentle voice... she is so sweet and adorable, Olivia Newton John.. thanks to Cheah, he got me addicted to this youtube, now I m listening to her songs, relaxing myself and mind wanders back to the world of the 1970s...

Yes, many of you are not even born yet.. yes and I am "that old", it was in my active teens when Marie & Donny Osmond, Michael Jackson, Olivia Newton John, Mark Lester, Bee Gees were famous then...

Do anyone here remember the late Andy Gibb? He was the youngest brother of the Bee Gees.. unfortunately he died at a very young age, at his prime time when he was getting famous.. Listening to this video clip really touches my heart...

  4. like a lot of young people who achieved fame, he couldn't handle the stress. however, he wasn't as talented as his brothers. beside an album, he also did a duet with Victoria Principal.

  5. Sama sama, also thanks for 'exposing' my blog 'belanja you yam char' [buy you a drink]. Glad you are on cloud 9 reminiscing those good old days. Quite sad for Andy, another gone too soon at a tender of age 30 in year 1988.
