I was born in Scotland and went for a job interview recently....... This song came on just before I arrived at the company's office........i belted it out and walked in 12 ft tall. I start in January ❤️
Is there anything that doesn't make this song perfect? Great musicians, excellent background singers, incredible bagpipe player, unique song and a John Farnham who sings this song with his heart and soul. The icing on the cake is the vocal audience. It can't be better. This is the song of all decades!
I like this more: ua-cam.com/video/X-TPRdzHZDU/v-deo.html&ab_channel=Gary86 actual one is too... mechanic seems, missing drive. Generaly thats problem of most orchestras... they are great in reading notes, but missing drive in most of cases...Played in one, in few European countries.
I am a seventy nine year old, now living, if you can call it such, in 2024, a time that i look at with real tears in my eyes at the fact that we have crusified ourselves at others behest, not our own. We have a chance,i think its the last chance, to stop and listen. The fact that this song has real power, the power to make us take o look at where we are as a people, the chance the rejioce in who we are and what we are. Listen to the words, they really have meaning if you take the time to stop and do that, listen,.we do have the chance to do just that, we do have the chance to put back into life all that is important, we DO have tge chance the write history in a plain and honest way, for the benifit of ALL MANKIND. I do not know who wrote this song but the words tell onlythe truth and do so in the most powerful way any could think of. For me faith is important, but i look at this as a mistake, we seem to have lost the ability to listen and think for ourselve, religion is about right and wrong, and in our hearts we all know whats really right and wrong, and i take the chance to chastise religion for side tracking reality for creating devision were
Yep - and he used this song for the govt, to further 'the voice' campaign - and make us sit in silence!!! Remember 'the voice referendum' - the nation voted NO - but they are doing it anyway. Good on ya - Johnny - the ppl don't matter???? The 'Freedom Movement' asked for it to be played at the huge gathering in Canberra, against forced covid vaccination - 'We will not sit in silence" - he refused - supporting the tyranny of forced vaccination!!! They sang it anyway - why??? Not his song lol - written by others!!!
This is my sanity song, played as loud as possible as often as possible after my wife died 10 years ago. Still works today! The best choice for a World Anthem
@LeeH864 oh yeah definatly, ! This song's amazin' I'm tellin' you I have a CD now of john farnham whispering jack now, I listen to it everyday, and his other songs are amazin' too! Like, "age of reason" "Help" (which is emotoinal) and yeah , just amazin'
This song changed My life my grandma would tell you that I sang before I actually spoke due to horrible trauma as a child this track gave me back my voice thank you
I was there in '88. I just close my eyes and listen to this and I'm transported back to a wonderful era. The 80s was such an incredible era for music, John and everyone in general. Oh God how I miss those times!!
John Farham's family confirms iconic Australian singer is now 'cancer free' and back to singing and dancing 'at home' after a marathon cancer of mouth operation mid year 2023.
Amazing thanks for this info , I can’t help thinking what an even bigger mega star John would have been if he had been a Brit/ American. The Aussies are so lucky to have such a gifted and iconic musician to call their own .
if you read his biography you will find out that he is is a British,born in England on 1st July 1949 and moved to Australia in 1959 when he was 10 years old. The place where he was born is few miles away from where I live. Just check his profile on Wikipedia.🤓
I'm an extremely proud WELSHMAN, but I wish this song, would be made the national anthem of Australia, it's bringing tears to my eyes, as I'm listening to it,, ABSOLUTELY AMAZING SONG, SUNG BY AN AMAZING SINGER.
John is a showman, he loves performing, hie loves his audiences and his fans, and you can see he loves having them join in with his songs - "it's party time, so let's all party tigether". And the members of the professional orchestras who sometimes play with him just all have a ball. And that voice - what a gift to share with the world. 25.9.23. UK. E❤
Not just an anthem, not just a protest song - it's a rallying call to the entire world - stop the destruction, be non- confrontational, don't start stupid meaningless wars, learn to live as global citizens in a global world, co-operate with each other make the world a better place for everyone! 28 9.23. UK. E❤
The question then becomes, what should be the response when someone starts a stupid meaningless war? Like... Putin's invasion of Ukraine. There are many looking at each other down the barrel of a gun there. But Ukrainians are defending their homeland. Should they not be doing that? Should Palestinians not be defending themselves from continuing Israeli occupation?
He underwent a lot of voice training after the "pop idol" years in the 60/70's to compliment the increased sophistication of material written for him. This quite is apparent.
@@michellebostock4276 It was well reported in the media and stated by himself on numerous occasions towards the end of his unarguably bleak LRB front man days. He is very intelligent he knew what he had to do. And he has with some aplomb.
One SIR TOM JONES, STARTED BACK IN 66 I THINK COULD BE WRONG STILL GOING STRONG IN HIS 80S, ONE OF THE GREATEST EVER, NOT BAD FOR A TAFF FROM THE VALLEYS. PEACE BE WITH YOU MY FRIEND. 🙏 😎😎😎✌✌✌🏴🏴🏴
I hope John Farnham reads all these comments. I"m commenting again just because I watched it again and I do when I'm down. Just as said below. One of THE most iconic performances ever. Thanks for posting this.

The bag pipes has to be the best bit then the salute just tops it all of.. outstanding!! What a performance! Hard to believe that 30 years have passed since it's release.
We saw this at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre. I still remember the bagpipe player on stage. Truly amazing. We should live by this: "I am the voice." Put an end to tyranny and human suffering
I saw him twice at The Brisbane Entertainment Centre (when 'Whispering Jack' was released) and both concerts were EPIC. What an incredible talent and really nice bloke. ❤
2021.....March 26.....from London on my lunch break! We need to sing this song during this Covid-19 saga just to encourage us again that we, the people need to be heard. Thanks for this beautiful song.
Played on Saturday at the World Freedom Rally in Trafalgar Square. Were you there? Together we are strong. More need to join us so this tyranny can be overthrown once and for all...
Yes. Freddie Mercury level of audience control. You cannot get any better than that. Great. He is for sure under the Top 5 audience control singers ever.
Absolute showman!! In these trying times there is no more poignant reminder in these lyrics that we as a voice need to stand up and be heard. I would love for this "Anthem" to to made the official anthem of Australia or maybe the World Anthem. There is far more to learn from these lyrics than any other anthem. Congrats John and I hope your current medical challenges are overcome soon. This guy is a national treasure and should be recognised as such.
After 16 years, I hope to feel the same as you. I cannot stop listening to this song whenever I feel down. It lifts me up and brings back the faith I never knew existed in me! The crowd's energy makes me feel wanted even though I don't know anybody there & will probably never meet them. Goosebumps for me too!! :]
This is so special, John is one of a kind, cool and humble, a master of live entertainment. He has been around a long time and is still highly regarded even elsewhere in the world. Huge respect for this man, he earned it !
One of the best live performances ever! His powerful voice and showmanship is brilliant. What a superstar he was, he should have won Grammys and any other world recognised awards. He's a legend. God Bless Him 🙏❤️❤️❤️

There are always iconic moments at any concert, George Michael bringing on Elton John, Queens performance at Live Aid In 85, Phil Collins live version of In The Air Tonight, the way John introduced the piper and his performance, followed by the roar from the audience shows this will always be one of them, fantastic 🇬🇧
I visited Australia in 2002. I ended up in a little house in a holidaypark in Bachus Marsch. Noting to do in the evening, so I turned on the TV. John was on and blow me away with this song. Sing every word to this day when I hear it. Good to read he is doing well.
John Farnham's Best Friend, and Manager died, suddenly yesterday. Glenn Wheatley, orininally from band "Masrter's Apprenitices"Bass Player. Glenn's passing has shocked us all, esp J Farnham.
'You're the voice' is living proof that there comes a time when a song ceases to exist as music… and becomes art. I have survived 5 heart attacks and am on medication to keep my heart going. I've had an angioplasty, got a stent and was on many machines. But why have they never linked me to 'You're the voice'? That would have been good for my heart!

Yesterday i came up with this song and it beens yeeeeears since the last time i heard this! amazing song
Agree, I will never forget when he was in my hometown in Germany. He has an outstanding voice…one in a million.
This song changed My life my grandma would tell you that I sang before I actually spoke due to horrible trauma as a child this track gave me back my voice thank you
It’s my first time listening to this song !
This could be the anthem of those who are sick to death of senseless mass murders
This is an anthem for the human race in these troubled times,stay safe everyone.
Being Australian born, with a Scottish heritage, this song will ALWAYS give me goosebumps!! Hella proud!!
Ariesgoth it’s the bagpipes, I have the same reaction
Even though he was born in Dagenham, England?
@@slammy102 she was talking about herself, not John Farnham 🙈
@Ariesgoth always loved this song, ashamed to say this is the first time I've seen this performance, it's outstanding 👌😍
Ima mixed scott indian and love this really proud of my hertiage and this so g just awakens the spirit
They don’t make music like this anymore, kids now days will never know what they missed
The absolute truth. They really don't make real music anymore 😔

Can't stop watching this. Love the way the bagpiper and Farnham salute each other. Shivers down my spine.
That's the old bagpipe salute of a freind! Excellently done in this piece.
Who was the piper ??
John Farnham - You still rock it in 2023 mate. :)
Still gives me goosebumps after all these years. Farhnam is one of the finest vocalists ever ❤
Was fighting in Angola in 86/87 and heard this song. Made me think.
One of THE great power ballads of all time and man what a singing voice!
Will never be another like him.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Dear Lord, this version is far beyond outstanding.
The originial is often the best. Heart did a good cover of it.
Should be played everywhere - every shopping mall - every school - every subway... Never gets old.

and nearly 40 years later they STILL react the same!!!!
I'm Scottish and bagpipes make me react the same way.
He's not only an Aussie legend and the best singer in the world, watch him toss the mike stand 3.38 He's brilliant!!!

One of the best Australian songs ever, and his voice is INSANE
One of the most underrated power ballads of the 1980s.
If only he knew how powerful, how needed this song is …..
He isn’t dead yk?
Unfortunately he's an absolute socialist and doesn't agree with the use of his song for that related to the lyrics.
Timeless classic “we’re all someone’s daughter, we’re all someone’s son” powerful lyrics.
I do like it when the crowd cheer when the bagpipes come on brilliant
His voice is out of this world and those bag pipes send goose bumps down my back !
Absolutely!!!
Goosebumps chills and big smile on my face
@@ethanlafontaine2055 you're absolutely right, big smile on my face as well😊
That man was in complete control of everyone in that arena. Tossing and catching the mic stand like a baton...100% command of entertainment.
He’s so amazing on stage live. His concerts are epic and everyone loves him and his music and sings along.
Yes! And completely without “fancy “ American choreography...
Yes. Freddie Mercury level of audience control. You cannot get any better than that. Great. He is for sure under the Top 5 audience control singers ever.
A fan from USA, hes definitely a GOAT! :-)
That was my 2024 theme song….
And this right here is one of the best versions ever!!
I'm Scottish, who thought to bring in the bagpipes, brilliant.
John did.
THIS SHOULD BE OUR AUSTRALIAN ANTHEM! 🇦🇺🌏☮️✌️

Send this performance link to our American friends
They need it after that 2024 election result. Put the heart back into them from Australia
America should be ashamed of the monster they just elected. I weep for my country and the damage that POS could do to this world 😢
This song is so powerfull on its own, but backed by an entire symphony orchestra the energy level just becomes amazing.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
what about the piper......
wrong song
Peter ( Piper ) ?
But what a Piper!
A total spiritual liberation. One of the most inspirational and motivational song ever
Siiiiiiiiiii
❤❤❤❤❤
Agreed! And those counter harmonies of in the final chorus lift it even higher
This gives me chills. Saw him live when I was 14. I'm now early 40's. Everytime I hear John sing, it is magic! Goose bumps!
After 16 years, I hope to feel the same as you. I cannot stop listening to this song whenever I feel down. It lifts me up and brings back the faith I never knew existed in me! The crowd's energy makes me feel wanted even though I don't know anybody there & will probably never meet them. Goosebumps for me too!! :]
Oopsie on the math. 26 yrs will still work on me, I'm sure of it!

Muita saudade fez parte da minha juventude sem palavras .da pra ficar o dia todo só ouvindo .Não se faz mais esse tipo de música q pena .19/09/2024
John Farnham's Best Friend, and Manager died, suddenly yesterday. Glenn Wheatley, orininally from band "Masrter's Apprenitices"Bass Player. Glenn's passing has shocked us all, esp J Farnham.
'You're the voice' is living proof that there comes a time when a song ceases to exist as music… and becomes art. I have survived 5 heart attacks and am on medication to keep my heart going. I've had an angioplasty, got a stent and was on many machines. But why have they never linked me to 'You're the voice'? That would have been good for my heart!
hawthron berry poweder heals heart muscles, its the only thing that does, stop taking other medications before using
I can see this over and over. A one off performance. Thank you John. So much pleasure to so many. You must be proud.
You hold it together, singing alone.. Chest out... Pride blossoming.. Then the Scottish bagpipes kick in... The tears start flowing. ❤
Ich hab den Song gesucht und gefunden!Und ich werde ihn leben und weiterleiten an meine Tochter!!!Great,das ist Musik!!!!
Sally in the Tv show Home and away introduced me to this song. What a voice, what an uplift we all need. Farnham is special
Who still listens to this song in 2020, and I only discovered the joy of this song because of BBC Merlin 😛😛😛

Gosh, why do so many songs sound so much greater when they're played live? This one is definitely one of those. What an incredible performance!
I saw John in concert in 1996 he really knows how to make the crowd feel special
Still one of the best .. I hope you know that John. We love you and miss you, and wish you a great journey...🇦🇺❤️💛💚
Not many songs like this will come along in my lifetime . Embrace them when they do.
This song is so real especially for the hero's in Ukraine
This song is hope, freedom, joy, powerful and I wish we the people can stand and build a better future for our little childs
This is the first time really listening to this man . Where the hell was I when this came out I am truly moved.
Was für ein Vermächtnis,so kraftvoll und so viel Empathie...großartiger Song immernoch🤘👍
