3. (xanadu) (77↑, 18↓)

The Broadway musical based upon the 1980s movie with Olivia Newton-John. Playing at the Helen Hayes Theater, Xanadu tells the story of an artist (Sonny Malone) who is saved by a Greek muse (Clio/Kira) who appears out of the chalk mural he is creating. Together, they create great art: a roller disco named Xanadu. The OBC stars Cheyenne Jackson, Kerry Butler, Jackie Hoffman, Mary Testa, and Tony Roberts, to name a few.

1. lengthy prog rock/hard rock tune by the [Canadian] band [Rush]. I think it refers to a classic piece of lit called "Kubla Khan", don't quote me on this. 2. one of the most wretchedly [godawful] movies ever made. An absolute waste of time, film, money and effort. It was a total dud and a bomb during the summer of 1980. The story line was unbelievably [stupid]. It was possibly the worst movie ever released to public cinemas until that exalted status was taken by "[Sibling Rivalry]" ten years later. It starred the [Aussie] [Olivia Newton-John] as a "muse", [can U dig it?] But it gets worse from there, much worse. About the best thing about this flick is the historical fact that the action that occured during the music clips foretold the emergence of [MTV] the following year. The soundtrack ain't too bad, however. Olivia scored a big hit with "[Magic]", another one with "Suddenly" (with [Cliff Richard]), and the title track with the "[Electric Light Orchestra]". [ELO] also scored high with their own "I'm Alive" and "All Over the World". Despite the embarrassment that this [shitty] movie placed upon them, ELO and Olivia would go on further into their music careers with even more success.

1. When I saw Rush on their "30th Anniversary Tour" in 2004 they played a wide [spectrum] of [classic]s, including "Xanadu". 2. I first saw Xanadu on TV at my [grandparents]' house one summer a few years after that movie first came out. A complete piece of [trash]. Olivia herself would later star in another flick, "Two of a Kind", with [John Travolta] again. It too was an utter pile of [puke]. My roomate commented on Olivia's nice [ass]. That was the best thing you could say about that one.
