19. Olivia Newton-John and Electric Light Orchestra – Xanadu

Posted by Bill Rippel on November 14, 2020 - 2:10am


Year: 1980
Record label: Jet/MCA
Worth Today: $9,100*

Olivia Newton-John may have found great success as Sandy in Grease, but not every movie she made afterwards was a hit. In fact, 1980’s Xanadu was a financial disaster. But while fans and critics alike panned the movie, the soundtrack did pretty well. The singer collaborated with ELO to release a single simply called “Xanadu.”

When the single was originally released, Olivia reportedly disliked how she looked on the cover so much that she asked the record company to destroy them all and go in a new direction. They obliged, with only 20 to 30 copies escaping. These rare finds go for around $9,000.

“Xanadu” was the title song of the eighties’ movie, Xanadu. “Xanadu” reached the top of the charts in multiple counties, and it was the only UK number-one single from ELO. For Friends fans, you’ll recognize the song and music video, as it appeared in the episode, “The One Where Rachel and Ross…You Know.”
