Playlist shuffle: keeping my ear & brain engaged. One minute I'm brought to tears by the virtuoso cornet of Wynton Marsalis weaving the "Grand Russian Fantasia", the next I'm sinking into the ridiculously lush ELO pop soundscape of "Xanadu" and carried by Olivia Newton-John's clarion voice.

Ian Dury & the Blockheads - "Hit me with your rhythm stick", on video.

Olivia Newton John - "A little more love". Repeated from last year, the pink blouse pops against the stark black backdrop.

Racey - "Lay your love on me" Not *quite* the theme from Kick Start, but close enough.

"Magic" is a song #recorded by British-Australian singer #OliviaNewtonJohn for the #soundtrack to the 1980 #musical #fantasy film #Xanadu, which starred Newton-John and #GeneKelly. Written and produced by Newton-John's frequent collaborator #JohnFarrar, "Magic" was released as the soundtrack's #leadSingle in May 1980 and topped the US #Billboard Hot 100 for four weeks beginning on August 2. On August 30, it was displaced from the top by #ChristopherCross's "#Sailing".
