You may not believe me but he can sing anything magnificently. Ballads to opera, romantic duets, soul, gospel to rock. He is "The Voice" in Australia.
1000% - Facts. He is the most phenomenal versatile singer and just our national treasure.
So true, he's an Australian icon. We love ❤️ our Farnsey
I am so glad that it was suggested! Thanks for hanging out with me! Welcome to the Lounge ladies!
@@TheSpeakEasyLounge check out his signature tune from the same concert..The Voice 😁 John has one of the best voices on the planet. Should be known by everyone but he's not the type of bloke to leave Australia for extended tours. John Lennon loved this version better than the Beatles
Trust me, doing sound checks, you take your headphones off...
Down Under John is simply known as "The Voice". He unfortunately underwent surgery for jaw cancer this year and will probably never sing again - but before that, even at 73 his voice was strong with the same rich timbre - maybe didn't hold notes quite so long.................he is a National Treasure here. Enjoyed your honest review - nothing fake about your appreciation -thank you.
Welcome to our national treasure John Farnham 💖
Yay- It was all my pleasure!
John Farnham, even we Dutch in Europe know him. His biggest hit here was; you're the voice. Absolute a great singer
Rian!! good job! 👍✌
Thanks mate.. we love him mostly ..❤
Now you get a glimpse of why Farnsey has been a crowd favourite in Australia for over fifty years. Not only is he a brilliant singer, he's a top bloke - always giving credit to his co-performers and being playful with his audiences. Lots to choose from in his catalogue - but always go live for that extra spark.
Thanks for the info! Welcome to the Lounge!
@@TheSpeakEasyLounge You're welcome. And thanks for saving me a seat.
Yup, Farnsey live is always the way to go. Unbelievable to know that he’s never had a single singing lesson. He’s our national treasure ❤
AGREED, For live, best dvd's are Whispering Jack in Concert and Classic Jack.
@@viking1au yes!! …plus, a few other notable exceptions 🙌🏼🇦🇺😎
You can’t unhear him but when you your standards shift.
This concert was 33 years ago in 1989 and it’s phenomenal still to this day! John is a national treasure and we Aussie love him and are very protective of him as one reactor found out when he said somethings about John and he pissed off a lot of Aussie. John has career stretching over 50 years and your are lucky that most of us on here to watch even his concerts. Enjoy going down this rabbit you want be sorry. always Always do John live. 😊🇦🇺
Hard to believe it was so long ago. This is my favourite performance of John's from the many I love. Try - You're The Voice, Touch of Paradise, Burn for you, Long way to the top if you want to Rock'n'Roll (ACDC), Blackdog(Led Zeppelin), When the war is over (Cold Chisel) & Gethsemane from Jesus Christ Superstar & The hilarious but awesome version of Granada with Anthony Warlow our Phantom of the Opera. & then When something is wrong with my baby with Jimmy Barnes(Cold Chisel), another Aussie rock legend. A Rabbit hole is before you & the Aussies will come. Then you can listen to Barnsey & Cold Chisel & heaps of others awesome Aussie bands 😎
I am really shocked that I'd never heard of him before..>That was my "era" of music. Thanks for the comment, I look forward to more soon. Please share links if you can! Welcome to the Lounge!
Hi Donna! Please share some links! I'd love to know the best ones, in order, if possible. I won't likely get to them all, but I would love to see the BEST ones! (I know that's subjective) but I trust your judgement! Welcome to the Lounge!
@@TheSpeakEasyLounge
Links at the top under my posts you won't believe your ears
Best male vocalist EVER.
Tom Jones once commented that John was the best vocalist in the world. He's sung with the best. It's crazy to me how our music never jumped the pond....
That is true. I remember in the 70s he was used on many jingles in all sorts of styles especially if the range was high. The studios would say, it's okay, let's call Farnsey, he can reach the high notes, he can do it. Of course he put out a great body of very exciting and dynamic jingles!
Yes, this is so....He even recorded with Tom Jones. Absolutely a must to see him in live performances. .
John farnham is a Australian legend and one of the greatest live singers ever
Thanks from Australia
It was my pleasure!
John Lennon thought this version is how he wanted the original version.
That is so cool! Thanks Marion!
Can’t get better then that, one of the best live performances ever. Glad you discovered John he’s got over 5 decades worth of hits.
I can't believe that I've never heard of him before now! Thanks George, and Welcome to the Lounge!
You should also listen to his performance of "You're the Voice" at the same concert. It is also epic and a.o. one of the reasons that he is called "The Voice".
Please Don't Ask Me is still, IMHO, one of the best ballads of all time. His duet with Olivia is just beautiful.
@@TheSpeakEasyLounge Do your research. Please Don't Ask Me is an amazing ballad, and his duet with Olivia is just beautiful.
@@Woofer4269
Agree 1000%
Absolutely the best live performer in the world ever. He doesn’t need props and silly costumes he just needs a microphone and his powerful powerful voice. We love him and he’s so very very funny and very humble. Very much a family man still with his wife after 50 years.
This cover by John was released in 1980 not 8 years ago. He kept his career and fame within Australia, because he didn’t want to be away from his family. He is a national treasure, we love him here “down under “🇦🇺👍🏻 he is the voice!!!!
1 of Australia's great singers
It was a little over 30 years ago…. Last song of a 2 hour concert.
Help wasn't the last song. It was the 3rd last song as there was another encore after Help that night. It's a Long Way to the Top was the last song.
Hello America , Australia say's hello . So glad the internet has discovered us. We have gems just waiting to be discovered . i hope John beats the cancer and at the least has a peaceful life . He will always be a legend to us in Australia .
Thanks John!
I had the pleasure to see John Farnham in 1988 at Konserthuset in Stockholm, Sweden. I remember I was so impressed by his voice. It was even better then on the album.
He was big here in Sweden after the 1986 record "Whispering Jack" and the song "You're the Voice". That songe today is still most relevant.
The Great John Farnham..................
Have another one coming out tomorrow! Cheers!
John Farnham is a musical genius with a huge vocal range and perfect pitch. He didn't want to make it big overseas, although he did do some concerts o/s, as he preferred to be with his family and friends and living in Australia. His career started in the 1960s and he was still going until his retirement a few years ago, aged around 70. John has had many top hits and record albums. He sings in over twenty genres. He is the consummate showman and his concerts were sell-outs many times over. John has sung with a number of famous singers who admire his amazing talent. He is a lovely, charismatic, energetic, lovable, humble and funny performer who has an incredible rapport with his audiences. His backing band and singers are top notch and well known for their talent. The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra stated that they had never had so much fun as doing these concerts with John. Always see and hear John Farnham LIVE as the you feel his Soul radiate. This is what he came to do !
Thanks for the great insight. I love finding new (to me) artists to react to! Welcome to the Lounge!
Pick any of John's songs and you will not be disappointed, he puts the same effort and emotion into every single performance. Always choose the live version.
Got it! Thanks for the info, welcome to the Lounge!
This "white boy"
Can sing !!!
Born with so much soul
Astounding .
Btw I luv watching women reaction to Farnies singing
Women get it ..
If you do more John Farnham always do the live versions and from the same concert is his signature song you're the voice and it is brilliant. This was the last song after a two and a half hour concert.
John has been singing and entertaining here in Australia since 1967, and has been around for 55yrs
Thank you Andrew! I appreciate the info. Welcome to the Lounge! Feel free to share a link!
John Farnham is an absolute icon in Australia His live performances are perfection. A true star ⭐️❤🇦🇺
Thanks Mitchy! Welcome to the Lounge!
Haven’t scratched the surface yet
For the other side of John
John Farnham and Olivier Newton John singing “ Please Don’t Ask Me “
From the Main Event Concert
The Beatles wish they sung this song like John.
You have been introduced to an Australian national treasure , John Farnham known as Farnsey to us Aussies has been performing since the 60s and is considered to be one of the best singers in the world . His biggest hit is YOUR THE VOICE which was big in the late 80s you may not have heard of Farnsey but I bet you've heard the song . He toured America as front man of THE LITTLE RIVER BAND But missed his family and home so he more or less was satisfied to be the top performer at home With the emergence of social media he has been "discovered "by American reactors who have recognised hIs undeniable talent . This concert is one of the best you'll ever see so you should check it out in it's entirety . His best performances are always live and include everyone in the building , band , ,backing singers , and audience, a Farnsey concert is an unforgettable experience .
Thanks so much Tom. I am very familiar with "Little River band", so he sang the vocals on the biggest hits by them? Then I probably have heard him and just didn't know it....Welcome to the lounge!
@@TheSpeakEasyLounge Glenn Shorrock was the lead singer with LRB and recorded most of the songs, John replaced him but did sing on a few of LRB songs..Both incredible entertainers
John is in his early 70s now and is recovering from mouth cancer which has been removed, fingers crossed, also his jaw had to be reconstructed.
He may or may not be able to sing again. Time will tell.
Love you John.
💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Pleased you enjoyed his performance.
🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🐨🐨🐨🐨🐨🐨🐨🐨🐨🐨🐨🐨🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘🦘
We Aussies love us some Farnsey! To many, he is the GOAT. Covers Jimmy Plant, ACDC, sing with Ray Charles, Tom Jones, Queen, Celine ... and never fails to give his all. We just love that the rest of the world is finding out about him. 73 now, and recovering from surgery after being diagnosed with mouth cancer. Get well great man! 💕
Wow- I don't know how I never heard of him before. Thanks for the info, Welcome to the Lounge!
In those days US record execs were like gatekeepers and basically didn't let him in. He toured US as lead for Little River Band but says that US audiences just didn't get him. At least there is a lot on youtube. Best voice in the Universe.
I GOT IT! lol. I may have heard him and didn't know it, as I am pretty familiar with "The Little River Band" Did he sing "Reminiscing"?
@@TheSpeakEasyLounge yes but it really belonged to the original lead Glenn.
@@TheSpeakEasyLounge would be great if you can react to Little River Band “reminiscing” with John Farnham
This concert was in the 90s after a 2hr plus concert. The late John Lennon said this is the way the song was intended to be done. John can sing anything and over decades has many great songs. Queen asked him to be their frontman when Freddie passed away. Great reaction thank you.
It was recorded in 1989 with with another encore after this song that night. His vocal endurance was amazing. That's why he's 'The Voice'! 😊
I'm so happy that you guys recommended him to me!
John Farnham is very big here in Australia. One of our national treasures .
Happy holidays to everyone.
Thank you Wayne, it was a pleasure! Welcome to the lounge!
You’ve discovered the GOAT. Enjoy.
Welcome to the world of JF, If you like great songs and unbelievable performances continue to react to John, Then you’ll realise why we love and respect him in Australia 🇦🇺, People always try to compare John to other singers but he’s stand’s out on his own.His voice is why we call him THE VOICE and his ability to perform like no other. He always interacts with the crowd he makes them feel like they are a part of the performance
That is great! Thank you for the info and comment. Always so cool when I find someone new, that is so good, to react to for the first time! Welcome to the Lounge!
Thanks for this. John is an Aussie icon and hero. As nice a person as he is a great singer.
Thank you!
Johnny Farnham is Australia's King of Music 🎶... personally I think he's one of the best. Singers in. The world 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Thanks Lee!
I believe he tried to take his music to US, but was rejected because he didn’t fit into one particular Genre! …Here in Australia we know and appreciate that John is just So Amazing to be able to sing any and all genres perfectly! …A rare talent indeed. I personally think it was lucky for us all here down under, as we got to got the privilege of enjoying John mostly all to ourselves…for 50 years!!! The most phenomenal singer in the world for 50 years!!!❤😊🎉👌👍👏🎶🎵
I can understand your feelings Debbie. He is really great! Never heard of him before this! WOW. So much I have missed out on, but I am discovering new artists and music from around the world! It is a blessing! Welcome to the Lounge!
This was a truly genuine reaction - I really appreciate that. A lot of reactors start overreacting before he even opens his mouth but seeing you slowly get blown away was a joy to see. I'd love to watch you react to this same concert but the song YOU'RE THE VOICE - it's his most famous song. Thanks again!
Thank you! That means a lot to me. I always try to give an honest, raw, unedited reaction. Sometimes I ramble on a bit, but I truly enjoy finding new artists to react to and John was no exception, WOW. Why have I never heard of him before? lol. Welcome to the Lounge!
Love your work 👌
Thank you, Kevin! It's more PLAY than work! lol. Cheers!
John farnham is the holy grail of male singers. He can master any kind of genre to perfektion. And he never stops surprising you with his vocal range and stage presence. One of my favorite performence with him is from a live show called the last time ,its from 2003. And the song is called when the war is over. He was 53yo at the time. Get well soon mr Farnham.
John Farnham has been a top line artist in Australia since the 1960's. This version of the song was from his Album Uncovered released in 1980. The single was released in 1979. John Lennon on hearing this said that he was so happy as he wanted it performed as a ballad with the Beatles, but Producer George Martin wouldn't allow it. The 2 John's were set to meet in January 1981, when Farnsey was due in New York to do some recording, but of course, due to Lennon's death in the December of 1980, it never happened.
Wow- sad. That would have been one hell of a meeting, Who knows what COULD have come from that duo? Thanks Denis, Welcome to the Lounge!
John is not a "big star in Australia", he is a HUGE MEGASTAR in Australia. The reason you haven't heard of him before (despite your apparent astonishment at his immense talent) is that John could have made it big anywhere he wished. He chose to remain in Australia to be with his family. Thanks for that John. Any religious people watching this, please pray for John, he just had surgery on a cancerous growth in his jaw. He will survive, he's definitely a fighter, but it means he probably won't sing anymore.
Prayers done! Thanks for the info. Welcome to the Lounge!
A Aussie legend and icon. I've loved John Farnham since I was 4 in the 80s.
John is one of Australia's greatest entertainers. He decided to choose family over international exposure; if he had, he would have been one of the best entertainers in the world. He is an English born Australian artist, who began his career back in the 60's as a pop artist in his late teens.
How good is our adored John 💐💕
Anything from this concert is a great place to start!
Two things to remember about this performance.....
1. Notice his microphone is about ten inches away from his mouth. What power!
2. This was the last song of a nearly three hour concert
Aussie here - this concert was a lot longer than 8yrs ago darls, it was back in 1989 - I was there, at this concert. I've seen John 17 times in my lifetime, and can tell you that he isn't a singer, John is a master vocalist and performer. I don't know any other artist who has released songs in 16 different genre's. There is a 4 part series done by American Richard Marx, about John. Richard has known and worked with our Farnsey for years, that is very informative. John is 73 now, and underwent major surgery back in Aug for jaw cancer - The whole of Aus is waiting to hear good news about our Farnsey because he is more than what you see, he has been a part of every part of our Aussie lives since most of us were born, and is still a big part of it. No one compares to John Farnham, no one
This is John's arrangement of Help that he recorded in 1980, it was a big hit in Australia.
Tina Turner covered this arrangement of the song.
John Farnham is one of those very quiet legendary singers in the world.
The public were not really aware of him, but the rest of the top and best musicians and singers around the globe definately knew his name and were in awe of this youngsters voice and skills in his singing.
John did take a swing at the world stage, but it fizzed out when he realised it would take him away from his family if he refused to move them to america to get his foot in the door. So he walked away from trying to build his name internationally. He has sung and teamed up with the biggest names. And many of the biggest names are his greatest fans and have tried for years to talk him into going international knowing full well he could do it with ease.
He had the power and skill to stand up there with groups like Queen, Led Zeppelin, Beatles and also Ray Charles, Tom Jones, Celine Dion and many many others. There is too many people he has sung with or has various ties with due to close acquaintances.
He also had a habit of surrounding himself with equally extremely talented people.
The lovely Venetta Fields as a back up singer that became an extremely close and loyal friend with him. She brought her world wide skills she had learnt over a lifetime of singing with all the greats.
Oh, I could not agree with you more. Vanetta Fields (in my humble opinion) is THE best backup singer ever. She has astonishing talent.
Great info! Thank you. Welcome to the Lounge!
@@TheSpeakEasyLounge John does Amazing Grace with Vanetta & Linday Field (no relation). One of those performances with such unbelievable talent that it almost looks effortless.
You have hit on an Australian treasure.... he can sing anything. Check some of his other videos!!! "Your The Voice" is great.
Will do Graeme! Welcome to the Lounge!
This concert specifically must have been one of the most outstanding ever, if not THE best, worldwide. John apparently had perfect pitch and always gave his all, with no electronic assistance except for the amplification.
The orchestra apparently loved every minute (as told to me by a friend who played cello in this) and you can hear it.
His backing band was the best and they stayed with him for years, because he is such a good person. He has some gorgeous duets with his backing singers on CZcams.
His on stage charisma is unparalleled. His bond with his audiences is deeply moving to me, especially now he is so ill.
Looking forward to more, soon! Cheers!
The best of the best
John has shared the stage with many other artists over the decades, he’s gracious about sharing the limelight with others including Olivia Newton-John, Celine Dion and Queen. Every Aussie loves him, he’s the very definition of an Aussie larrikin and we love him to bits! Please pray for his recovery since he recently had part of his jaw removed due to cancer.
Will do! Prayers going up! What is " larrikin"? lol
@@TheSpeakEasyLounge A larrikin is a good Aussie bloke/man/mate/fellow with a cheeky sense of humour and loves to have fun with people such as games, tricks, jokes, etc. Larrikins are great company too! The video is a lot older than eight years, that’s the time when it was uploaded. John is in his 70s now.
@@TheSpeakEasyLounge Oops!
@@TheSpeakEasyLounge John with Human Nature. Love the banter with the guys, it comes from the familiarity of being mates for several years.

I'm 74. John Peter is a year younger. You could say he's been around for a while. It's crazy how Australian performers are insulated from the mainstream - even those known to perform with legends.
You now know who John Farnham is and how good his voice is, from the same concert he sings an anthem song of Australia called You're The Voice. John has had major surgery a few months ago to remove cancer from his mouth and is still in rehab. No one knows as yet if he will be able to sing again or not.
That's so sad! I am just finding him! Thanks for the info. feel free to share some links! Welcome to the Lounge!
@@TheSpeakEasyLounge Thank you for your comments. John Farnham can sing across all genres of song, from Pop to Rock, Ballads to Jazz and also Opera, as the following videos will show. You asked for some links, so I have compiled what seems to be the most popular videos that people from around the world are reacting to, as you did, which is a resurgence of his music. I have also included his first ever hit in 1967.
Hope you have the chance to view, react and enjoy these videos. Us Aussies are very proud of John Farnham and All other Aussie performers that the world is only now discovering that we have had the pleasure of listening to over the last 50 plus years.
These 2 videos are from the HELP concert with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra

These 2 videos are from the Main Event Concert in 1996 that features the late Olivia Newton John and Anthony Warlow.
Granada - John sings with Australian Anthony Warlow who played the Phantom in Australia’s stage show of Phantom of the Opera. Also shows the chemistry and humour between the two.

Please Don’t Ask Me - John sings with the late Olivia Newton John. They both grew up performing at the same time and shows the love they had for each other.

Something Is Wrong With My Baby - John joined Australian (Scottish born) Jimmy Barnes and recorded this song on Jimmy’s Soul Deep album. John joins Jimmy on stage, with a third performer guitarist Diesel (Jimmy’s brother-in-law) also joins in.
Jimmy Barnes was successful with the Australian band Cold Chisel, which is a different road for you to go down.

@@Ozzcaddy ALL of these are S-Tier! The man is incredible😯😲 Being at his concert,you can't comprehend how flawless & powerful his voice is. Hits your soul for sure! ❤️
✌️🇦🇺
John chose his family and happiness over international success ! And we love him for it .
I can see why you are so proud! He is an amazing talent! Cheers Adam!
John Lennon heard this version before he was taken from us all and said it was the best version, better than The Beatles original, he said The Beatles wanted to do it as ballad but the people at the record company said no do it as a more up tempo pop piece. He is a total legend in Australia an amazing powerful voice. I think you would enjoy Your The Voice by John as well and a duet with another Aussie legend Jimmy Barnes When Something Is Wrong With My Baby original by Sam & Dave (I think). John is recovering from cancer at the moment. Love your genuine reaction.
Thank you Rob! Your words mean a lot to me. Please feel free to share some links! Welcome to the Lounge!
@@TheSpeakEasyLounge The very best version of 'When Something is Wrong with My Baby' is the live 'Hey Hey it's Saturday' version. Farnsy and Barnsy at their very best plus bonus Diesel (the Aussie ladies will know what I mean) on Guitar.
Not Lennon. It was Paul that mentioned it.
The voice of Australia, is a treasure.
Just for future reference, Jon Bon Jovi was once asked "What's it like to have the best voice in rock n' roll?" He replied, "I don't know. You'd better ask Jimmy Barnes." Another Australian. Another living legend.
John Farnham has the biggest voice in the world. No one sings like him. Australia is blessed.
So am I --- NOW! Looking forward to more. There are a couple others here, if you take a look! Welcome to the Lounge!
Wishing John well after his recent 12 hour cancer throat operation ...the world needs his extraordinary singing .
In Australia we consider it illegal to react to John Farnham songs that aren't LIVE, they're always better than studio versions! ♥
LOL. I'll keep that in mind! Welcome to the Lounge Dave!
He is BRILLIANT
He’s in his 70’s now and he’s only getting global recognition now.
Anyone first coming into contact with Farnsey and reacting , is guaranteed LOTS of views... The Magnificence of Farnsey is his natural voice and ease of singing and use or lack thereof of the mic... note the space between his mouth and the mic..... Unfortunatley he's just been through a serious throat cancer scare... so... send him healing vibes.... But welcome to the world we Aussie have known for many, many, MANY years.... you've found the rabbit hole. Next you'll find Barnsey and Diesel... (Jimmy Barnes and John Diesel)
John Farnham is an absolute legend. Love that version.
This blew me away! Thanks James!
This is myt favorite version of the Beatles song HELP! John has an amazing voice and range.
Oh yes indeed. He has been around for a very long while. With number one hits over 6 consecutive decades from 1967 when he was just 18 right up till 2016 when he was 67. And he was still performing and drawing huge crowds in his 70's. An absolute legend in Australia. His most famous song is You're the Voice ...best version is from this same concert with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. And if you start to like him as much as we all do, there is plenty more to discover with 100's of great videos available on You Tube.
Thanks so much for the info!
@@TheSpeakEasyLounge your welcome. Look forward to checking out some of you other stuff and any other Aussie Reactions of course lol
That....Voice......at the end of the concert.!
It wasn't even the end of the concert. He came back out on stage again after Help to sing another encore with Sadie and It's a Long Way to the Top. That high energy AC-DC classic was the end of the concert that night.
He took a skippy poppy Beatles song and turned it into a real cry for help with incredible emotion and vulnerability in this performance.
John can sing LITERALLY anything. Otherworldly talent.
Loved it! Be sure and check out the others!
To put John's length of career into context, my grandmother loved him when he first appeared on TV singing Sadie The Cleaning Lady and she was born in 1890! She probably identified with the endless cleaning but thought he was very cute at the same time
One of the greatest male singers in the world
This blew me away! Welcome to the Lounge!
As many here have said, always do JF live. 1 exception is 'Black Dog' there is only audio of this. This is Johns warm up song before a concert. Will blow your mind!
Sending love to John in his recovery!💖
Congratulations on beginning your journey of John Farnham!
I first saw John perform this version at a Royal charity concert in 1980 at the Sydney Opera House, before Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip.
Highly recommended from this same concert, two of his own songs, You're The Voice and Playing To Win. Also his cover of ACDC's Long Way To The Top, very high energy!
Thanks Wesley! Welcome to the Lounge!
Look up any John Farnham song, you won’t be disappointed. Always best to go live 👍
This version of the Beatles classic is the way John Lennon had envisaged it to be sung. You should listen to the iconic John Farnham song, You're The Voice from this concert.
The Beatles praised him for the way he put it together the writer said it's the way he wrote it to be sung
Look up John doing song voice with Melbourne symphony orchestra as well
John got the title of the voice as he can sing any genre pop opera rock classical blues ect
Many artists that came to Australia 🇦🇺 wanted to sing with John Tom Jones Celine Dion ray Charlie's ect
We also have another singer call Jimmy barnes he has 4 decades John has 5 decades and domdou together as well
Jimmy sings with Joe bonamassa in his 50s Stone cold amazing vocals and two amazing guitar solo's
Jimmy used to be part of a well loved band before solo career has a unique sound 🔊
Wow- He definitely got around! I heard he sang lead for "The Little River Band". I have likely heard him and just didn't know it. Welcome to the Lounge!
Hi David. I have never heard the reaction of John and Paul before. It's so heart-warming to know they appreciated it.
Jon Bon Jovi was once asked what it was like to have the best voice in rock n' roll. His response was, "I don't know. You better ask Jimmy Barnes." That was back in the 80s.
One of the best ever! Welcome aboard.
Great reaction, you could tell you haven't heard this before, every song from the concert is amazing.
If you do any more always live.
So I've been told. LIVES ONLY! lol Thanks so much, it was a real pleasure. Welcome to the Lounge, Garry!
After 2 hours of singing
John has a 3.2 Octave range … a truly unique talent
John Farnham....This is de best voice and the best singer in the musical scene.there are no more words... No more words Thanks John for your music. And thnx Jennifer for the reaction. "Subscribed"
Concert was 1988. Best singer ever.
John farnham is a living legend down under, who unfortunately is recovering from surgery to remove a cancer from his mouth, and may never sing again.
I hope they are wrong and we can enjoy this seventy plus icon sing for many years more, please react to his song - you're the voice and many others available on youtube
Welcome to the Aussie music rabbit hole💜💜💜💜
Freddie Mercury said he had 1 o the best voices he heard & Queen asked him 2 reface Freddie when he passed away, this is why he's called The Voice xxx he's now had a mouth tumour removed & may never sing again 🇦🇺✌🏼
This was belted out,after been on stage for 2hrs, John's impressive,what an entertainer,we down in the SH love John,, Aussie takes a lot of our stuff, so they just have to share him with us, Cheers West islanders
Beautiful song, beautiful man, just a beautiful human. Very humble, real and honest❤️❤️❤️🌏🪐🌕🌸🐦🇦🇺🦋🦜🦉🏡🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Yes this is Johns version , but the Beatles stated this is how it was supposed to be sung. Their producers wanted it to be done more up tempo so the Beatles did that. There is a lot of material out there for you to explore. Duets with Olivia Newton John , Please dont ask me , Jimmy Barns, When there is something wrong with my Baby, Grenada with Anthony Warlow . I particularly like his songs Touch of Paradise , A long way to the top and his sound check song, a cover of Black dog by Lead Zeppelin.
Thanks for the suggestions! Welcome to the Lounge, Adam!
I recommend you listen to John sing You're the Voice with the Orchestra.
I'm an Aussie. This guy is a legend down here. Almost any day you'll here a song of his played on the fm radio stations.
He sang at the opening of the 2000 Sydney Olympics with Oliva Newton-John.
There is so much for you to enjoy, but always do live performances
8 years ago more like 30-40 years ago john has been a star in aus since the late 60s - the man is in his late 70s now
I get goosebumps every time I hear him sing this. I'm Australian, and I have heard it so many times since I was young, yet it never fails to move me. Thank you for appreciating this beautiful man's music. You can listen to Burn For You written for his wife. It is beautiful.
Thanks for the suggestion! Care to share a link? Welcome to the Lounge, Tracey!
Lots of hits with John Farnham. Looking forward to more.
Would love to watch you react to more John Farnham, thank you
I have one coming sometime next week! Welcome to the Lounge!
John Farnham is an Australian legend.🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
So I've heard! What a talent!
John Lennon said this is how the song should’ve been performed. He loved it.
This is a rabbit hole that will astound you… John Farnham, Jimmy Barnes, Diesel, Ian Moss, Guy Sebastian… then you have duets with Tina turner, joe Bonamassa…and the list goes on and on…one leads to another… I’m still lost but I love it…
