Friday, 3 June 2011

On Saturday May 28th, over 300 volunteers came together to create a music video for Olivia Newton-John's charity single "Magic." The video has been released today on YouTube (as seen above).

The single is an initiative by WACCI and all proceeds go directly to the Olivia Newton-John Cancer & Wellness Centre currently under construction in Melbourne. "Magic" was released on Sunday May 22 exclusively through iTunes and debuted on the official ARIA Charts at:

#19 - Dance Chart
#79 - Overall Singles Chart

Olivia, in collaboration with DJ Dan Murphy and Producer Steve Peach, have remixed the 1980 hit song Magic from the soundtrack of Xanadu. The original song was #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 charts for four weeks in August 1980 and also reached a high of #4 on the Australian charts and #32 in the UK.

Everyone working on this project has volunteered their time and enormous talent to raise funds for the Cancer and Wellness Centre and you can help too. Download today exclusively on iTunes in Australia and NZ to help raise funds for the Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Centre.

The song has been added to the Energy FM Australia play list this week. Listen out for it!
