Olivia Newton-John - Have You Never Been Mellow Lyrics






There was a time when I was in a hurry as you are
I was like you
There was a day when I just had to tell my point of view
I was like you
Now I don't mean to make you frown
No, I just want you to slow down

Have you never been mellow?
Have you never tried to find a comfort from inside you?
Have you never been happy just to hear your song?
Have you never let someone else be strong?

Running around as you do with your head up in the clouds
I was like you
Never had time to lay back, kick your shoes off, close your eyes
I was like you
Now you're not hard to understand
You need someone to take your hand

Have you never been mellow?
Have you never tried to find a comfort from inside you?
Have you never been happy just to hear your song?
Have you never let someone else be strong?

    When this song came out, I was at a small Catholic college. It was a great experience, but I only lasted one semester because I was uptight , thinking their theology was too liberal. Too bad I didn't take the advice of the song. Now I tell uptight Catholics the message of the song. After all, we do believe in the Holy Spirit.

  9. A.... M....

    Take me back

    There was a time when I was in a hurry as you are
    I was like you
    There was a day when I just had to tell my point of view
    I was like you
    Now I don't mean to make you frown
    No, I just want you to slow down

    Have you never been mellow?
    Have you never tried to find a comfort from inside you?
    Have you never been happy just to hear your song?
    Have you never let someone else be strong?

    Running around as you do with your head up in the clouds
    I was like you
    Never had time to lay back, kick your shoes off, close your eyes
    I was like you
    Now you're not hard to understand
    You need someone to take your hand

    Have you never been mellow?
    Have you never tried to find a comfort from inside you?
    Have you never been happy just to hear your song?
    Have you never let someone else be strong?

    Maaan what memories this song brings back. A time when people sung about love. If i could turn back the hands of time. This was such a nice song back in 75 my 3rd grade year in school. I remember hearing this song on the radio as i was getting ready for school back in tha day. Memories galore

  12. J.... D....

    Dance dance Revolution

  13. S.... W....

    I just love the intonation and inflection of her sweet voice on this song.

  14. C.... P....

    The intro to this song takes me back to my youth, I'm homesick for the 60's 70's 80's. 😩

  15. D.... M....

  16. D.... M....

    i was taught how to open the, "door" to which you speak. i'm, dense, so it took 14 years. it's a method that was thought of years before its patent in 1985, which is not public domain, still as of today, (special, art unit category) us patent; US4524846A

  17. D.... M....

    to whom do we owe the honor of her producer(s), in other words, who produced this hit?

  18. f.... g....

    I miss the days of fine music like this on AM radio.

  19. A.... G....

    Ay cancion de mi época aw!!

  20. 7.... F....

    I grew up singing this song!!! I loved it so much, and I still do..

  21. D.... F....

    Such a beautiful song by Oliver Newton John.

  22. J.... J....

  29. L.... i....

    I don’t know why I am typing this but what is the opposite of time 🤔😧

  30. T.... R....

    70s easy listening defined.

  31. l.... f....

  32. J.... S....

    4 yrs old back seat of mom's camaro..rideing too see my aunt ..moma jamming too this😍.RIP momma I miss you every day..

  33. D.... W....

    She was a ten in the 70s no question.

  34. R.... P....

    Who thumbed this down?! I'll hunt you down!!

  35. A.... C....

    It's so tragic that Olivia had to wait all these years to finally come out into the open as a lesbian though. Bless her for having to hide this from the world for so long.

    A.... C....

    Never heard that.
    Ya couldnt be gay until the 90s. Unfortunately, then it became "trendy."
    Poor kids today being force fed social engineering.
    Humans - like beehives and Wolf packs there's a reason we stick to our own.

    A.... C....

    When did she come out as a lesbian?

    A.... C....

    That's news to me if it's true. 🤔

  36. k.... ....

    This is the first song of Olivia Newton-John I've heard and it's been my favorite of hers since. I believe that I was in Kindergarten or 1st grade when I first heard it.

  37. C.... P....

    I think I was in about 3rd grade when this song came out. Takes me back to the old days of the mid 70`s. Just a great time to be a kid!

  38. M.... ....

    im here by catscan...

  39. G.... L....

    Listening to this on January 1st 2020
    Still sounds nice. I was 5 years old when this song came out. ❤

  40. R.... S....

    New Rochelle High School. 1975. God I miss those days.

  41. J.... D....

    Great band too! Sounds like Joe Osborne on bass. She sounded great in front of a great rhythm section, as in the Physical album.

  42. M.... L....

    Yes..olvia.great ur voice and song.hav u never been melo....

  43. W.... C....

    We love you
    Olivia.♥📀🎶

  44. b.... ....

    This opening melts me.

  45. l.... b....

    ...I remember the 45 and I remember hearing it on AM radio when I was young in the mid 70's. THERE WAS NOTHING LIKE IT...and there still isn't to this very day! God I miss the old days...

  46. L.... I....

    I sang a verse of this song to a young friend who'd never heard it before. She said the words were beautiful.

  47. L.... P....

    The perfect voice. Beautiful!

  48. j.... ....

    I just can't remember anyone not liking her back in the day 😁😁😁

  49. W.... L....

    your still awesome,,,always loved this song!!!

  50. L.... D....

    She reminds me of my brother's sweet and beautiful ex-girlfriend Karen D.

  51. s.... ....

    When she hits those high notes the tiny hairs on the back of my neck stand up. Possibly the most beautiful woman to have ever set foot on this earth. Female physical perfection.

  52. S.... V....

    I'm a child of the 70's boom

  53. j.... j....

    great music great singer big talent stunningly beautiful

  54. g.... m....

  62. j.... l....

    November 04,2019 ,forever Olivia.

  63. J.... D....

    this song went to #1 on the pop charts in 1975!!!
    Such a good song that takes me back to the 1970s.

  64. R.... R....

    The very first concert I went to in Nashville TN! Always loved ONJ and still do! She has a very calming voice!

  65. A.... M....

  66. M.... M....

    This really takes me back. We have the 45. I was about 12 when it came out.

    Recorded in studio 3. at Abbey Road. Arranged by John Fiddy. ( Brian Bennett on drums ). Written and produced by John Farrar.
    Backing vocals by Vicki Brown, Pat Farrar and Clare Torry.
    Engineer : Tony Clark.
    Sound engineers are largely overlooked, but were ( and are ) a vital piece of the final puzzzle !

    B.... B....

    Which makes complete sense , born in Cambridgeshire, United kingdom 🇬🇧♥️

  68. P.... H....

    Why do I think of Jaws when I hear this song? Oh that’s right, 1975!

  73. B.... ....

    Xanadu Moment

  74. a.... ....

    Angelic voice

  75. J.... e....

    *This song* is about her ex boyfriend who was bi-polar manic. 😂

    J.... e....

    Really? I never knew that. Who was the ex boyfriend? Someone famous?

    J.... e....

    @J Bro dont believe him pls...the composer john farrar said that its based on people's behavior that time (most people he knew were high energy compared to him a low energy person)

  76. G.... ....

    I was riding my Huffy 1-speed bike with the banana seat, ape hangers, extended forks and a pocket of baseball cards when I heard this angel from a neighbors apartment window. I stopped and have been admiring ever since.

    G.... ....

    Grant, I used to have one of those too. Mine was orange. Rode it everywhere. Loved this song !

    G.... ....

    @Bill Jenkins Incredible! Mine was 1970 dragster, orange, too. Broke my forks jumping it like Knievel. Dad had some long ones welded on to fix. Longer rake. I threw away the fenders and the chain guard. Best bike ever! The rich kids had the Schwinn Sting-Ray.

    G.... ....

    And Action Man was there

    G.... ....

    I think maybe it might’ve been Matchstick Man. There is a slight possibility it could’ve been Action Man. Too long ago to remember.

    G.... ....

    Bill Jenkins lol ! It sounds like we’re all from the same block

  77. B.... D....

    "Have you never been mellow..." ☺️

  78. K.... H....

    This has to be her biggest hit from early in her career before Grease and her 80s hits.

  79. B.... W....

    Sweetest voice ever. Juice Newton and Karen Carpenter tie for 2nd. All give me goose bumps.

  80. J.... E....

    What a beautiful song from a beautiful woman.

  81. J.... S....

    Have you Scottish? Lady Judith

  82. H.... w....

    I love mellow!...the world needs more mellow!

  83. J.... M....

    Always one of my favorite songs from her. Always had a huge crush on her, still do!

    MARCH 1975

  86. S.... F....

    I went and seen her “Physical Tour” when I was 16 in the 80’s- I loved her growing up in the 70’s , 80’s and still do today.

  87. H.... i....

    What a voice , wow.

  88. R.... G....

    The Starter Wife Hated this Song

  89. G.... ....

    Nearly 45 years have gone by since this song hit the airwaves, but it's still as lovely as ever! Some things never go out of style, and this song is no exception.

  90. J.... A....

    2019 and it still sounds amazing.

    J.... A....

    Yes wish mellow was back in style!

  91. C.... a....

    Linda, mi amor. No se la vayan a llevar las hormigas , por dulce.

  92. �.... ....

    사춘기때의 감성이 살아나네 !

  93. s.... ....

    Always my love ♡ Olivia

  94. B.... O....

    Just soooooo mellow! ♥️

  95. B.... B....

    I remember this song when I was in high school.

  96. D.... J....

    This song brings a tear to my eye ... especially now that Olivia announced that the cancer has returned. This is her fourth bout of cancer.😢😢

  97. Y.... ....

    2019♡

  98. F.... V....

    who wouldn´t fall in love with such a talented singer? she brings me back to my best times as a teenager. I could never get tired of playing this song over and over again.
