Song of the Day: 'You're the One That I Want' by Olivia Newton-John and John Travolta

Looks like Olivia Newton-John made it back alive from her pornstar cruise -- and just in time to join John Travolta in honoring her longtime collaborator John Farrar, who penned "You're the One That I Want" for the "Grease" soundtrack. Farrar also wrote "Hopelessly Devoted to You." arguably the two best songs in the film -- and neither from the original play! -- as well as the hit singles "Have You Never Been Mellow," "I Honestly Love You," "Magic," "Suddenly" and "A Little More Love," to name a few. I wonder what Sandy thinks of Danny's frisky behavior with massage therapists!

I love when Lee Grant's daughter, Marty Maraschino, cues Sandy to stomp out her cigarette!
