Twist Of Fate

"Twist of Fate" is a song recorded by British-Australian singer Olivia Newton-John for the soundtrack to the 1983 film Two of a Kind. Written by Peter Beckett and Steve Kipner,[2] and produced by David Foster, the song was released as the first single from the album on 21 October 1983, and reached number four in Australia and Canada. It reached its peak position of number five on the US Billboard Hot 100 in January 1984, becoming Newton-John's last top-ten single on the chart. Billboard magazine ranked "Twist of Fate" as the 42nd most popular single of 1984. Due to its loud synthesizer-rock-oriented sound, "Twist of Fate" did not make it to the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart. However, its B-side, "Take a Chance" (a duet with her Two of a Kind co-star, John Travolta) did reach the Adult Contemporary chart and became a hit, peaking at number three.[citation needed] Its accompanying music video was nominated for Best Video, Short Form at the 27th Annual Grammy Awards, but lost to David Bowie's Jazzin' for Blue Jean. In 2017, the song was featured in the second season of the Netflix series Stranger Things and included on the soundtrack album, Stranger Things: Music from the Netflix Original Series. The album was nominated for Best Compilation Soundtrack for Visual Media at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards.
