Whenever I watch a reaction for this performance I keep forgetting to watch the reactor and can’t stop watching them doing this performance. Having just said this thankyou for your reaction
Just sublimely romantic and emotional performance. Great friends for many years worked together in the music industry and charities etc. Olivia was just recovering from more chemo and they were worried about her energy levels but she was so brilliant this is from The Main Event sold out concerts. You could react to all the performances from this show. Solos and duets also with Australian Tenor Anthony Warlow. loved your reaction my friend. Love from Australia
John is the GOAT. He can sing any genre better than anyone. Do yourself a favor and check out - John Farnham - When The War Is Over (Live) [The Last Time: Melbourne 2003] when john was 54. It will blow you away. Great reaction thanks
Beautiful heartfelt reaction. I must have watched this a dozen times and still can’t take my off them both. They are telling a story as if acting in a movie. John & Livy sing together quite a bit, especially in this full concert called - The Main Event -.which is on UA-cam, also with our Anthony Warlow, which is on UA-cam . The 3 mix & match, song alone. Anthony is an opera singer who teaches John opera in the concert 😊. It’s brilliant.
I love this and I loved it when it was John’s solo song. Now I love it more because Livvy is in it and this concert toured for 3 months with Anthony Warlow. It is the Main Event Concert. You have to watch John and Anthony singing Granada from this concert. Anthony is Opera trained and our top stage musical star, it is fun to watch John sing opera and he is funny in this. You will see another side of John and yes, John taught me that everyone on stage or to do with the production is just as important as anyone else and they all have names. They become our family too. John has always been that generous person. Thank you.
Thanks heaps for the great reaction. The vocals and chemistry in this one is next level. Please check them out performing at the Sydney Olympic Games “dare to dream”
Olivia and John sang a duet called Dare to Dream to the athletes at the opening ceremony of the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney. They sang as they walked through the athletes on the field of the the main stadium.
Poor John received the double whammy to his heart. First he lost Olivia, a very Close Friend and fellow singer who he grew up in the industry with, then not long after that he lost his Best Friend and Confidant, Glen Wheatley. Heart Shattered.
John originally recorded this in his Little River Band days (it's a Graham Goble tune), but it wasn't released on any of his 3 albums with them, only coming out on a rarities compilation after he'd left to return to his solo career. He clearly thought highly enough of it to make it a mainstay of his gigs for many years. Reminds me we need to get you listening to more LRB both with and without John one of these years!
@@rickandersen2284 AH, if only you'd stopped after your first sentence there, that would have been an interesting bit of info about a version I didn't know about from the year I was born (as opposed to the LRB version I grew up listening to). But that additional sentence merely informs us all that you've left a key letter off the front of your name. Shame.
Yes, another of my favourite John & Olivia performances. Please also watch: Somewhere over the Rainbow; Two strong hearts; Dare to Dream (from the Sydney 2000 Olympics); plus they’ve done a few full concerts together and a traditional Christmas Carols Album together!
I love this performance. John is powerfull, yet still hokds back to let Olivia shine as you said. He is even courteous enough to turn his head on those high belts so he doesn't blow livvie's eardrums!! The chemistry between them is so beautifull..a friendship through the decades.
Both John and Olivia both have supremely pure voices and masterful vocal abilities. We often take John's range for granted as he is always gliding easily through octaves but it really hits you how incredible it is when he sings the final notes of this song in the same key as Olivia. Incredible❤❤❤
ONJ and John were great mates, had been since their 20's. John was devastated when she passed. This series of concerts was organised to get Olivia and Anthony Warlough back on stage after both of them had gone through their own battles with cancer. The concerts were sell outs.
The chemistry between two is beautiful.
Beautiful friends for ever
Totally agree! Thanks for watching Jennie!

Thank you for reacting to these two incredible human s friends for many years ❤❤❤
Super appreciate you watching!
Yes indeed. Love your reaction! 2 of our best ever. Luv from Australia ❤️🎼❤️🎼❤️
Super appreciate it!

Heart Shattered.
And then …. We nearly lost him 😢
So so tough!
Glenn Wheatley died in Feb 2022. Olivia Newton John in August 2022. The day of his consultation for his surgery.
So very hard for both families to cope with.
Thank you so much for your reactions..... Cheerio from Down Under 🌺
Thanks super appreciate it Alice!

It was released as a single before LRB in 81 from the Uncovered album. Sometimes it's good to google before you post.

Totally agree and once again you are the legend that brought Farnham to the channel!
@@ReactionsToTheClassics haha I'm so glad you have taken to him! I'm hoping to be back with more soon... fingers crossed 🤞

Thanks for that info, makes it that much more powerful!
It wasn’t a mullet. It was a layer cut.
