Bodily begins off precisely because it ought to, stuffed with sparkle and Newton-John’s regular vocals driving the bass line proper up into an emphatic refrain that’s type would change into the template for the pop songs of the last decade that adopted. Although not precisely the top-of-mind track for the period any longer, nearly all of what got here after has lots to owe to this track’s success.
