The soundtrack to the 1980 movie Xanadu featured songs on side one of the album written by John Farrar and performed by Olivia Newton-John, and songs on side two performed by the Electric Light Orchestra which were composed by lead singer Jeff Lynne. The album was a Top 5 success in the UK and the US (where it was certified double platinum), and peaked at no.1 in Newton-John's native Australia.
"Magic" became Newton-John's biggest Adult Contemporary hit to date. It also became Newton-John's biggest pop hit until "Physical" ruled the Hot 100 for ten weeks beginning in November 1981.
