Musical Interlude: Physical (1981)

Olivia Newton-John permanently shattered her image as a girl next door, as if "Grease" hadn't done that three years earlier, with the release of 1981's "Physical". The title track hit #1 in several countries, including the US and Newton-John's native Australia.

The official video had Olivia, in a leotard, tights, and leg warmers, in a gym, trying to get some men to lose weight by exercising. I'll bet anything at all this was in heavy rotation at the local gym....
