Very sad news, rest in peace Olivia. (Not a song written by Jeff, but still one of her best.)

She has battled cancer for quite awhile. Seems that it finally caught her. Another bit of ELO history gone.

This one hurts. I remember having a major crush on her as a young man. She was a ray of sunshine, always smiling and cheerful.

In a time where people are called stars just for getting their faces on the TV, Olivia was a proper artist who really deserved the accolade. She had a fantastic singing voice and pulled off that iconic role in Grease, yet always seemed down to earth and full of fun. The world of music is a darker place without her, RIP Olivia

It's a shame that the video didn't feature ELO, I wonder why not?

A very sad day. A woman who lived with courage and dignity.
She will be greatly missed.
