I was a 2nd year high school student when Grease came out in the UK.

Never admitted it then, but I have very fond memories of those times because of this movie. It was huge.

Didn't care for this movie because of the schlocky songs and such. But seeing Olivia in them tight black leather pants...mhm.

Fun enough movie, wouldn't want to see it again though. I prefer Hair which came out in 79, can watch it anytime.

Funny thing, when I was in middle school there was a '50s Day' during Spirit Week and the teachers played this soundtrack incl. 'Grease Lightning', complete with 2 'dirty' + risqué words in the verses that rhymed. Somehow they overlooked that but some of us students didn't.

Oh my days, I lurve that film.

Of course, back in '78 it was a huge draw. Grease, Saturday Night Fever... the latter being quite dark in parts when you watch it again.

But Grease still entertains.

Oh, Sandy! Oh, Danny!
