Olivia NewtonJohn - First Impressions
Review by Alessandro Castagna
First Impressions is the ninth studio album by the Australian singer, Olivia Newton-John. Released in 1978, the album showcases her versatility as a performer, as she explores different genres and styles of music.
The album opens with the upbeat and catchy "Deeper Than the Night," which quickly became a hit, reaching number 11 on the US Billboard Hot 100. Newton-John's vocals are strong and confident, and the song's infectious melody makes it impossible not to dance along.
The album also features several ballads, including "A Little More Love" and "Landslide," which showcase Newton-John's ability to convey emotion and vulnerability through her singing. The latter song, in particular, is a standout track, with its haunting melody and poetic lyrics.
Throughout the album, Newton-John's voice is supported by lush arrangements and intricate instrumentation, with each song featuring a unique blend of instruments and sounds. The album's title track, for example, features a funky bassline and a driving beat, while "Borrowed Time" has a more stripped-down, acoustic sound.

Summary by Alessandro Castagna
Comments
Very good
I love Olivia.
A truly gorgeous song- the best number she ever did!
I've only just discovered this song, she and Karen Carpenter had the most beautiful voices ever
The only other person that does this better is Neil Diamond.
I had completely forgotten about this song until I heard it on TV just now. Ethereal and haunting, takes me back to when I was a teenager and life was worry free.
May her soul rest in eternal peace,,,she was one of the underrated talented and best musician...especially with this classic...she was the best at her own accord...
The iTunes one is flawed. So annoying.
One of my favs - beautiful lyrics, music and melody. Her voice is so angelic in this too. Just gorgeous like the lovely lady herself. Sadly missed ???❤❤❤
I was 9 years old when I first hear it on the radio and I took to it before going to school!!
no one could offer you more thats a simple beautyful truth when love is genuine
Beautiful, so angelic.RIP Olivia.x
This was one of the first songs that I heard her sing. I just fell in love with her voice. I will miss her for the rest of my life. Rest in peace Olivia.
This is by FAR the best version of this song. Period.
God is holding another beautiful angel
RIP lovely lady.
Why was this never a hit in 1971 RIP Olivia maybe this will be a hit in heaven. ??
R.i.p. your an angel now
rip
Beautiful. I knew it would hurt, but I just had to hear this one tonight.
R.I.P. Olivia Newton John, and our condolences go to Olivia's family.
