The Olivia in this sweet & wonderful tribute is Olivia Newton-John, the English-born Australian pop star whose heyday was the late 1970s/early 1980s.
The song references several of her high points:
She had a song called "Hopelessly Devoted To You."
The "muse on roller skates" in the summer of 1980 was Olivia in the movie "Xanadu."
& the reason a young woman would want to crop her hair & wear leg warmers might be to look like Olivia in the "Let's Get Physical" video.
Songs like this always make me wonder if the subject ever heard it. I bet it would make the California Oranges happy if they knew Olivia Newton-John had heard this song!
