Critical reception

Cameron Adams gave the album 4 out of 5 stars saying, "John Farnham and Olivia Newton-John have a chemistry and friendship you just can’t fake. And zero egos. The fact these two were having serious fun is not lost in the recorded translation. You also see new sides, like Farnham blitzing 'Over the Rainbow' and Livvie cutting loose with rock wailing on 'Hit the Road Jack'. That’s another one of the joys here, we rarely get to hear Olivia live and from the divine thrills of 'Xanadu' to the spine chills of I Honestly Love You it’s our loss. On the Grease favourites 'Summer Nights' and 'You’re the One That I Want', Farnham slips into John Travolta mode [and] Farnham sings 'Suddenly' better than ONJ’s original duet partner Cliff Richard".
