The singer-actress also topped the Hot 100 with “You’re the One That I Want,” with John Travolta, from the blockbuster film Grease (in which Newton-John and Travolta starred), as well as “Magic” (from her film Xanadu), and “Have You Never Been Mellow” and “I Honestly Love You.” The latter three tracks also reached No. In the 15-year span from January 1970 through December 1984, Newton-John notched 15 top 10-charting hits on the Hot 100 - the most of any female artist in that period.

Newton-John (in Bad Sandy mode) leads this group singalong with Travolta, giving it her all. An example of these beautifully bonkers lyrics? We thought you'd never ask! "Rama lama lama ka dinga da dinga dong/Shoo-bop sha wadda wadda yippity boom de boom/Chang chang changitty chang sha-bop/Dip da-dip da-dip doo-wop da doo-bee doo." Listening to it is a sugar buzz of epic proportions, as the song mocks and celebrates the era's classic tunes.
Luckily, "We Go Together" was one of them, and it's obvious why this completely bonkers yet heartfelt song perfectly captures Grease's interpretation of the '50s. But by the time it got to Hollywood, only a handful of original songs remained.

But the authentic sound can't hide the fact that the Brit/Aussie was considered an outsider - something Nashville's old guard never let her forget. Newton-John flies her country flag high on this twangy, traditional sounding single.
