Absolutely brilliant cover. RIP Olivia, beautiful lady in every way. Lots of memories of her growing up.🙏

What an amazing cover . Absolutely magical combination of voices of Nikki Jaylena and Daz.....

The musical and personal charisma on display here from both mother and daughter (not to mention the instrumentalists) is so far "off the charts", it can only be described as "magic".

I'm a Heavy MetaL Monster and I've always loved that song from Olivia Newton-John you guys are awesome

OMG... upon hearing this... reminds me the good old days in the late 70s and my prime during the 80s.... LOVE this band and the main singer...❤❤

l`m a drummer, first thing that grabbed me was the bass player and the drummer. Absolutely awesome, give the song it`s feel and groove, great to see such talented singers and musicians

Nikki thank you for keeping ONJ alive in our memories.

Ok guys, we have to petition KZread to allow multiple thumbs up.

Wow. Been listening to this song since I was 13 in 1980. This captured the complete atmospheric essence of the song while breathing new life into it. The arrangement and colorings were incredible. As a former sound engineer I can say the fella in charge of the sound knows his stuff. We also have to thank the amazing John Farrar for writing this classic. There is simply NOTHING like this being written anymore. The current crop of artists do not have the creative musical depth, in my view.

Great, great job everyone! I was going to make a comment about the drummer being hidden but when he stood up in camera shot at the end & twirled the drumstick I shouted out my approval with "yeah that's how you do it!" 👍

Ladies, you absolutely killed it. This is one of my childhood songs. I'm in love with these tunes!

Love this cover, Olivia would be proud. Olivia rest in peace!

Phenomenal. Anybody else covering this will need HSCC's permission

From Spain I would just like to say that the HSCC are amazing and without doubt Nikki is sensational...

Even though this is HSCC I must admit i was skeptical going into this one, But the babes pulled it off wonderfully!

This is one of my top five Olivia favorites, so I was a bit nervous before I listened. NAILED IT!! When she hits the high notes I got chills down my spine!! Everybody came together on this one--! Olivia is smiling down upon you all after hearing this!!

NIKKI is FANTASTIC!!!! My Favorite Band!

a tricky song - full of changing modulations- well done HSCC both instrumental and vocals.

Nailed it! Amazing how the lead singer sounds so much like Olivia! My most replayed song, thank you!

This songs chords / progression makes it sound so haunting.. love it. You guys nailed it.. AGAIN!

What a spookily brilliant cover. The singers voice is so like ONJ's it's uncanny.

How freaking baller would it be having HSCC AND Mariachi Entertainment Systems Open and Close at your next Wedding, Quince, Ammiversary, or Birthday Bash??!! The Mariachi would be fun! But your guests would be blown away when HSCC simply morph's into whatever top shelf songs you can dream up! Baddass cover band..

Beautiful vocals, the sound of angels, so glad to have this band in my life, come to England soon please.

Once again, the HSCC have knocked the ball out of the park with this terrific rendition of Magic. They look good, sound good, and (during these sad/strange times) make us all feel good.

For as far as this cover: I'm typing this while I just hit the replay button :-) Staying true to the original with some extra percussion beat added to it...wonderful! (Hits replay again) :-) The band plays just perfect! For as far as Nikkie Heuskes, the lead singer: Holy smoke!... :-O Her voice and timbre is almost identical to the voice of Olivia Newton John. (Also an Aussie) Heavenly! And that sitting down...! Backing vocals: absolute perfection. Sound production: superb. Only negative point: this only lasts 4 minutes and 55 seconds. I have to keep hitting the replay button! Thanks a lot for this!! ^^
