John Travolta started out in a TV sitcom "Welcome Back Mr. Kotter" as a smart-ass HS student. While still young he played a role as a dancing fanatic in "Saturday Night Fever" followed by "Grease". So for the most part he sang and danced early in his career before coming an awesome bad-ass in movies.
First time I seen John Travolta he was a high school student on a tv show, Welcome Back Kotter…. Wow, that was forever ago. A movie I loved him in, Face Off
John Travolta was always known for his dancing moves due to films like "Saturday night fever" and "Grease". Because of that he got the still famous dancing scene in "Pulp fiction".
@@surlechapeau I was amazed that many people think that John Travolta was the singer and ONJ was just another pretty face. She was the cultured singer and he got by on a novelty song.
Olivia, one of the most beautiful singing artists ever. As a kid in the 70's, I was into Sabbath, Zeppelin, etc and wasn't into Grease (my sisters and their friends wore out this record) but my friends and I were all in love with ONJ.
I was pre teen at the time so I must have listened to this 8 track with my friends a thousand times. When I hit my teens, I got more into hard rock and heavy metal, until I found the Grateful Dead and went down a whole different road.
Grease started out as a Broadway hit, then the movie back in the 70s when there was a 50s rock renaissance going for awhile. They did a live tv performance a few years back, and it is one of the most performed musicals by school and local companies. John Travolta was known for his dancing in the Saturday Night Fever movies during the disco era.
Great song! I remember being in summer school 1977 John Marshall High. This scene rehearsed during the week and filmed on a Saturday on our football field. We had to have our summer football practice on our baseball field because of the filming. Decades later, while flying over my old high school heading back to Van Nuys going through Burbank airspace with Lorenzo Lamas, I shared them facts with him and he then responded, yea I know. I forgot he was in the movie, lol.
I still remember the first time I saw this movie. I was in the 4th grade. 51 years old now, and not only is this still my favorite movie, but this song was from the best part of the movie. Thank you❣️❣️❣️
Love this and "Summer Lover" the other duet in the movie + "Hopeless Devoted to you" sang by Olivia Newton John in the movie .. Everybody love Grease it's a must watch ..
My first memory of John Travolta was as one of the high school kids in the network sitcom "Welcome Back, Kotter." When Grease was made into a movie, I never quite knew if John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John were in the original Broadway cast, or if they were cast for the movie. I suspect the latter because ONJ had established herself as a pop singer a few years earlier. Perhaps they just thought those two were a more photogenic couple than whomever was cast on Broadway. I believe that in more recent Broadway to Hollywood hits they make an effort to use the original Broadway cast (at least the first time they turn it into a movie).
Olivia was a pretty big star in Australia before she was here so she nor Travolta was in the Broadway play. However, as I mentioned above, a very young Adrienne Barbeau played Rizzo in the play.
John Travolta was in the Broadway production and the national tour as a replacement for the original cast but didn't play Danny. In fact, Jeff Conaway played Danny before being recast as Kenickie. Travolta was the huge star once the movie was made.
John Travolta started out on the hit TV series "Welcome back Kotter. 1975-79..." As Vinnie Barbarino. We all grew up on him. He was the heart throb of the show (Teenage idol) So it was no surprise he was the one who would go on to make it big. "Saturday Night fever. 1977." and "Grease.1978" Were huge hits for him.....Then he just faded off into nothing. "Pulp Fiction.1994." Was his rebirth and again another big hit for him...It seemed everything he touched turned to gold.
In this episode of Brad & Lex, someone get an excorcist! Nostalgia has possessed Lex as she is clearly overcome by this 1978 tune from the classic movie "Grease" which gets her right into her "Sandy bop" as Brad is content with an unenthusiastic "side to side sway".
John Travolta grew up in NYC. His mom was a dance instructor and he learned to dance at a young age. His first big role in film/TV was as the character Vinnie Babarino in the sit-com Welcome Back Kotter. He then went on to do Saturday Night Fever which was a blockbuster success. He then went on to do Grease and then Urban Cowboy, all of which drew big box-office returns. He went on hiatus in the mid 80's and did not appear in any films until Quentin Tarantino did the movie Pulp Fiction in 1994. He was nearly forgotten about as an actor until his role as Vincent Vaga in that movie revived his acting career. The scene where he dances with Uma Thurman wasn't originally in the script, but when Travolta agreed to do the film, Tarantino asked if he would be willing to do a dance scene, to which John agreed. John choreographed the entire dance with Uma and selected the music they danced to. In the world of dance, he can't find a bigger male name than JT. He was the dance king.
One of my most favorite movies ever. Watch it!! It has great humor, great choreography and it will be fun to watch John Travolta when he's young! I've watched it dozens of times.
You'll love Olivia Newton-John's "I Honestly Love You", "Physical" and "Have You Never Been Mellow". She had 27 top 10 hits (main/country/adult contemporary combined)
we used to do skits to this when we were kids for our parents when we were kids. Another great movie song is Just one year of love from Queen for the Highlander movie
To be perfectly honest, I went to high school in the '70's and I never saw this movie in the theatres at the time (you had to understand the rock vs disco vibe of the time) . I bought this movie as a VHS tape for my then gf at the time ('90's) and I loved the songs and the movie, Big fan ever since.
Yeah but this was closer to rock than disco. I saw it basically because it wasn't disco. LOL. But to be fair, much like "Kiss" I secretly liked a lot of disco. It just wasn't cool to say it back then.
My friend & I cut class one day & went to see Grease. We were big rock fans but enjoyed this movie. We knew our boyfriends wouldn't go & we didn't tell them. Your post brought back good memories.
Gotta have seen the movie to get the context. I'm stunned at the things people this age don't know. They must miss so many references and call backs in movies and t.v. I mean when I was kid I knew the big movies from 50's. Just crazy to me. We are living in different worlds.
100% true. I’m 45 and everyone watched everything. Maybe because in the 80’s you often watched whatever was on or saw everything at the video store. Now people tend to stick with whatever genre they stream
You gotta do "Grease is the Word", the theme song of the movie. It's a classic, written by Barry Gibb and sung by Frankie Valley. It was a 50's movie but this track has a disco-ey feel to it. Good groove.
I got to see this on Broadway before the movie came out. Adrienne Barbeau played Rizzo before she was ever on Maude. (all in the family spin off show. If you never heard of "All in the family" one of the greatest ground breaking sitcoms of all time...... I have no words) My bros ex wife(LOL, I am old but not that old, they are both about 20 years older than me) was in a lot of Broadway plays back then so she knew most of the cast. I was like 12 or 13 at the time. When I heard they were taking me to see Grease, I was just glad it wasn't "Oklahoma" which my bros ex wife was in around the same time and because that show bored me to tears. I remember that after the show we and a lot of the cast, including Adrienne all went out for pizza. But at other plays my bros' ex-wife was actually in, We got to go in the dressing room before and after the play. Lets just say the actors and actress are no shy about undressing in front of people. So when I say that it was a bit of a disappointment to be going out for pizza after the show, I think you will understand why. LOL. Hey it was the early 70's and we were just at the end of the hippy era. It wasn't that big a deal to the people in the play. Well, for 12 year old me it was. :)
I like Grease. It's much better than you'd think from one song. And it's one of those movies that unlocks tons of social references you've unknowingly been missing for years.
Lex, John Travolta first started in Hollywood in the 1970s sitcom "Welcome Back Kotter"!! He just wanted to branch out while remaining on the show!! He took singing and dancing lessons...he even was the star of Staying Alive!!!
“I love that song, I love that movie. Wanna watch it?” Dude the answer is Yes Yes Yes! Your lady loves you and wants to share this soul touching piece of her heart and history with you! Besides when you see it in context you’ll really enjoy it! I mean who didn’t like Grease?
FYI-the reason for John Travolta and Uma Thurman dancing in Pulp Fiction was a call out to Travolta's past as a dancer. (See also Saturday Night Fever)
In retrospect. Most of the songs I grew up on I never really knew most of the words to them. I just loved the rhythm and beat of them. Now that I am getting to know the words to them, I like them all the more!
Another great reaction! Thank y'all so much. I hope you two, Tank, and Nala all have a wonderful Christmas together. Wishing the same for Mama Lex and the rest of y'all's extended family. Please consider reacting to "Statesboro Blues" by the Allman Brothers from their Live at Fillmore East album. I'm sure both of y'all will like it. Best wishes from NOLA, and thanks again.
Rip Oliva. Oliva passed away today August 8 2022 from cancer. I grew up listening to her. Let be there is my fav song from her. Condolences to her family.
I graduated High School in 1982. I was in Junior High when Grease was released. It was my favorite Movie. All the Guys had crushes on Olivia Newton John and the Girls had a crush on John Travolta. Please react to Summer Nights from Grease and also Grease.
My parents let a bunch of us 8 year old kids see it in the theaters, when it released. It was a good movie. Now, imagine being in your 20s, and seeing it again, and actually understanding what they were singing about...
Most trained actors are trained in voice and dance even if the public only knows them as primarily a movie or TV star. Great examples include Fred Astaire, Meryl Streep, Martin Short, Barbra Streisand, Hugh Jackman, Neil Patrick Harris, or Scarlett Johansen, all who were professionally trained. So they know how to stage fight, or sword fight, and they can sing and do all of the major dance moves.
Oh yeah, Grease was 1st. He had a hit song. "Gotta Let Her In". But was know b4 Grease for being in Welcome Back Kotter, as Vinny Barbarino. Funny Show.
Being a child of the 60s I'm a diehard classic rock fan but I've always loved this song it makes me wanta get up and dance it's just a really catchy song I thought Lex was gonna break out into a dance
Hilarious! In the summer of my ninth-grade year, I met my first real girlfriend, who was a year older than me and in the next grade up, and we listened to a lot of records that summer together downstairs in their basement. Grease came out that summer and it was the opposite of the kind of things I was into, which were a lot more rock. The last thing in the world I wanted to do was to go see that movie with her and her sister and her boyfriend in the theater but he and I knew we had to do it so we did it and it was actually pretty fun in the end. She bought that album and we played it all the time.
I had a major league crush on Olivia when this movie came out. I saw it one night and then I went back and snuck in the next 6 nights and stayed for both showings. I didn’t have an allowance and I was saving my paper route money for Christmas gifts.
John Travolta was a Broadway actor before his film roles. He was in the Broadway cast of Grease as a replacement in the role of Doody, not Danny Zuko as he was in the film.
Sorry, but absolutely wrong. More like- be yourself, not what your friends expect you to be. They met during the summer and fell in love, and were completely themselves when it was the 2 of them. They went back to school and almost blew it because they had to be cool to be accepted by their peers.
Fans of Grease will instantly recognize that Lex was rocking her Pinks jacket for this.
Only thing missing is the "Pink Ladies" on the back

Vinny Barbarino, with Horshack, Freddie 'boom boom' Johnson, and Epstein, and of course Mr. Kotter
He also did live musicals first... was in Grease the live musical but played a different character from. The movie.
@@zzzzzach Freddie Washington.
@@paulfrombrooklyn5409 Oops, yes, you're absolutely right

Vinnie Barbarino is the reason I can't take Travolta seriously in any role he plays. All I hear is, "I'M SO CONFUSED!!!"
What? Where? When? Why? I'm so confused!
I used to do the "Baa baa baa, baa Babarino" dance 🕺 😄
He was pretty good in “ phenomenon”
Amazing Show growing up with!! 😁💯👍🇺🇲
John Travolta was always known for his dancing moves due to films like "Saturday night fever" and "Grease".
Because of that he got the still famous dancing scene in "Pulp fiction".
Olivia Newton John is a seasoned performer. She's been singing since the 1960's. She's had several hits.
Olivia has had a long and brave struggle with cancer.
@@Quinctili yes she has, sadly. She had a string of hits in her day.
She had 27 top 10 hits when you include the US Main, US Adult Contemporary and US Country Music charts.
@@surlechapeau I was amazed that many people think that John Travolta was the singer and ONJ was just another pretty face. She was the cultured singer and he got by on a novelty song.

I was pre teen at the time so I must have listened to this 8 track with my friends a thousand times. When I hit my teens, I got more into hard rock and heavy metal, until I found the Grateful Dead and went down a whole different road.
Anyone else notice the "Can you believe we're doing this?" look Brad gave us when Lex was introducing the video? LOL

Lex always makes me smile 😃
Her smile is infectious isn't it.
I think she's under-selling herself... I can totally see Lex as Sandy Olsson singing the female part ...it would be adorable imo
Me, too!!!!!!
Love the Pink Lady jacket
I’ve had a life long crush on Olivia. She’s an amazing singer, some the songs she’s in just melt you!!
I was soooo obsessed with this film when it first came out. And so in love with Travolta. Such happy times 😢
Had to like all grease stuff this weekend. Love the channel guys. Happy weekend
Lex.. I give you mad respect because you respect all music! You find something good in every tune.. And so freakin cute!
Lex would have made a perfect Character for ONJ. She's got the beat and sofa dance down to a tee!
I could watch Lex react to the music all day long. She's awesome! Keep 'em coming!

Whoa! Out of control, Brad, out of control
One of my most favorite movies ever. Watch it!! It has great humor, great choreography and it will be fun to watch John Travolta when he's young! I've watched it dozens of times.
The whole makeover with Sandy in Grease makes this a gem.
My mom was born in '75 so we grew up on older movies like this. It's what got me and my sister obsessed with musicals.
You'll love Olivia Newton-John's "I Honestly Love You", "Physical" and "Have You Never Been Mellow". She had 27 top 10 hits (main/country/adult contemporary combined)

It’s one of my older brothers favorite movies. I watched it a few times and the songs kinda grow on you the more you watch it.
John started out on TV, in the show Welcome Back, Kotter. He then put out an album, then went on to do movies.
I remember going to the movie theater to see Grease with my friends when it came out. This movie was huge at the time!!
Love this tune, it's so peppy!
R.I.P. Olivia Newton-John...a True Superstar. ❤💔
great reaction! gotta watch the vid/movie!
The bass and piano here is an awesome jam. The animator known as Tirrell made a great, clever video for this song that you can check out sometime.
I'm a musician myself and I really do love the rhythm section on this, particularly the bass.
Lex... in the Pink Lady's jacket. Nice.
The Best Decade for Music. The 70's!. ❤
omg i love Lex's response to this....soo sweet
C'mon Brad, wake the heck up. This song is awesome!
Brad is rocking that tank-top the way Travolta and Newton-John are rocking this song
The bassist is the real hero of this song.

LEX YOU BETTER ROCK THAT “ PINK LADIES JACKET” …. 😊 love your energy!!! Get it girl 😉
Only just realised how killer that bass line is. Not normally a song I'd choose to listen to but damn.
Olivia's vocals on this are FIRE.
I saw this as a stage musical in London in the 70s with Richard Gere playing the part that John Travolta later played in the movie.
You gotta do "Grease is the Word", the theme song of the movie. It's a classic, written by Barry Gibb and sung by Frankie Valley. It was a 50's movie but this track has a disco-ey feel to it. Good groove.
Lex reaction Made me smile the whole vídeo. 🥰
Lex, I love watching you listening to this.
A good part of this movie was filmed at Venice High. Every time I see this movie I think about the nutrition breaks and the warm cinnamon rolls.
I got to see this on Broadway before the movie came out. Adrienne Barbeau played Rizzo before she was ever on Maude. (all in the family spin off show. If you never heard of "All in the family" one of the greatest ground breaking sitcoms of all time...... I have no words)

Brad needs to see grease honestly a super good movie this is coming from a major metal head
This movie and Xanadu i really enjoyed as a kid! I'm 51 years old now!
My favorite character from Grease was Frenchie!!!!
It's a classic...it's a must watch!
I see Lex is rockin her "Pink Ladies" jacket. Nice!!!
My intro to Travolta was as Vinnie Barbarino in "Welcome Back, Kotter"
Damn. Feeling old now.
Lex looks like one of the Pink Ladies in Grease with that pink jacket on . Brad, Grease is a GREAT movie. One of the best musicals of all time.
Grease is a Cult classic... Brad needs to see the movie.
I love Lex’s energy!!!
I like Grease. It's much better than you'd think from one song. And it's one of those movies that unlocks tons of social references you've unknowingly been missing for years.
"It's such a good movie! Wannawatchit?" LOL
This song is one you must watch and listen to get the best effect.
Travolta blew up as star of the movie "Saturday Night Fever". He's in the Bee Gees video for "You Should Be Dancing". Totally reaction worthy!!
Iconic movie. Stay forever
OMG! Lex is adorable in this.

Travolta was also the star in Saturday night fever. The tv show Welcome Back Carter
Grease was the first movie I remember seeing, back when people still went to drive-in movies. I spent my childhood wanting to be Olivia Newton-John.
In addition to singing, dancing and acting, John Travolta is also a pilot and flies one of the biggest airliners in the world. ❤️
I fell in love with Olivia Newton John watching this in the theater. ❤️
Rip Oliva. Oliva passed away today August 8 2022 from cancer. I grew up listening to her. Let be there is my fav song from her. Condolences to her family.
Really need to see the video with this song and the movie 🎥
I graduated High School in 1982. I was in Junior High when Grease was released. It was my favorite Movie. All the Guys had crushes on Olivia Newton John and the Girls had a crush on John Travolta. Please react to Summer Nights from Grease and also Grease.
All us teenage boys were in love with Olivia Newton John back in the day. Her, Donna Summer, Farrah Fawcett oh man.
You really need to see the movie visuals to appreciate this one.
"it's not exactly piquing my interest" -- isn't that Brad's default position?
Cover the left side of the screen and these reactions are fun to watch….
I was 5 when this movie came out and I saw it in the theater. My pre-k school took us. Yall should watch it. It's a musical, but it's a good story.
Y’all should really watch Grease. One the coolest musicals ever. Travolta was a very talented song and dance dude back in the day
My parents let a bunch of us 8 year old kids see it in the theaters, when it released. It was a good movie. Now, imagine being in your 20s, and seeing it again, and actually understanding what they were singing about...

Oh yeah, Grease was 1st. He had a hit song. "Gotta Let Her In". But was know b4 Grease for being in Welcome Back Kotter, as Vinny Barbarino. Funny Show.
Being a child of the 60s I'm a diehard classic rock fan but I've always loved this song it makes me wanta get up and dance it's just a really catchy song I thought Lex was gonna break out into a dance
Hilarious!
In the summer of my ninth-grade year, I met my first real girlfriend, who was a year older than me and in the next grade up, and we listened to a lot of records that summer together downstairs in their basement.

The last thing in the world I wanted to do was to go see that movie with her and her sister and her boyfriend in the theater but he and I knew we had to do it so we did it and it was actually pretty fun in the end.

You guys should do like 80s or 90s movie reactions, that would be dope.
John Travolta was a Broadway actor before his film roles. He was in the Broadway cast of Grease as a replacement in the role of Doody, not Danny Zuko as he was in the film.
The moral of the song, the movie......completely change yourself to be loved and accepted. Catchy and classic though.
Yeah!
Sorry, but absolutely wrong. More like- be yourself, not what your friends expect you to be. They met during the summer and fell in love, and were completely themselves when it was the 2 of them. They went back to school and almost blew it because they had to be cool to be accepted by their peers.

@@randallfender96 ps. U said it yourself. They had to be cool to fit in.
