Thank you so much for doing my request!! 🤘😎🤘 Loved your comments. I’ve seen John do this song a bunch of times live. This brought back some awesome memories :)
Welcome USA to our greatest Aussie music legend - you will never be disappointed with our John Farnham or Jimmy Barnes. These are greatest 2 soloists and make sure you watch their duets. Thankyou to all the reactors globally who are getting ourcAussie icons out there. Keep it up Nick. You are the best reactor to John & Jimmy 🥰🥳
Long Way to the Top is the signature song for Aussie hard rock band AC/DC. It was written by Bon Scott, their lead singer until his untimely death in 1980. It's an incredibly popular & beloved track. John really 'owns' this cover version!
John Farnham is a British-born Australian best singer and is also a real downunder cowboy working on his cow farm too. This man is my hero too forever.
I've seen him live a handful of times and every single time he seems so genuinely thankful that the audience came to see him, he is so humble and just such a wonderful man. Always puts on an amazing show and he's a Australian National Treasure xx
He's just an Aussie boy, who gained confidence through not letting failure stop him. He also has amazing friends. A true blue Aussie. Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺
John Farnham is a national treasure. His voice is INSANE. I haven’t been able to see him live yet (he’s from my parents era), but I really hope to see him at least once.
John is an Aussie icon and well loved. From his early beginnings as a 60’s pop icon to Little River Band in the 70’s to Whispering Jack in ‘86 and onward. He was always loyal to his band and backup singers…so much so that he took them everywhere, classed them as family and never treated them as anything other. Thank you for revering him as we in Australia do and realising that his vocals are some of the best ever on a worldwide scale!
When you see John in concert, the hair on the back of your neck just stands up…even if you’re bald!🤪😱🤣 The lead guitarist he mentioned, Brett Garsed lived only some 30km, 18 miles down the road from me in central Victoria. Actually he’s from Castlemaine. He played with The Nelson Twins in the US among other bands. He also had a guitar school I believe in LA for a number of years. I met him several times & he is just the nicest bloke.👍🏼😎
I love that I can name all of his back up singers and half his band. They were all so loyal to him, and he took them everywhere . Can’t really say that about many artists now
Thank you for your love and appreciation of John's vocal talent. I've believed for decades that he is the best vocalist in the world. He is well known among Aussie artist as having a gift for the way he sings a song, and brings it to life. He is a fantastic showman, and I have seen him spin that mic stand all the way to the roof and catch it. But I've never seen him miss.
I love your reactions - and it really shows how much you respect these wonderful singers ❤ I am a huge fan of John Farnham and Jimmy Barnes, and your appreciation of their talents makes me so happy. You really know music and recognise the talents of others - thank you for your awesome clips 😊
On stage John is like the energiser bunny - if he isn't throwing/touching/kicking/moving he isn't happy....even his vocals are like a frustrated musician (he doesn't really play much...bit of guitar and can just manage 'Help' on the keyboard ) I can imagine his mum making him sit still for punishment as a child hahaha... and to think that back in the day this guy was a plumber... holy heck... what those lunch breaks must have been like !
John knocked the mic stand into the audience in a concert I was at. He laughed and said ' Whoops. That wasn't supposed to happen.' And went on singing.
Was that at the old entertainment centre in Sydney because he did there at the concert we were at. The band in the background cracked up, smiles all round, no one was hurt, the mic stand was caught and handed back, but as you said never missed a beat. Consummate performer.
Yes, I witnessed the same. It was always hysterical when it happened, which ... was a fair bit. :) I couldn't help but laugh when the awesome Mr. Reactions mentioned the mic and did he ever drop it. Not laughing in a nasty way, however much like many others in the comments, I've been fortunate to see Mr. Farnham perform many times over the years, including with Olivia and Anthony in The Main Event, and apart from forgetting the occaisional lyric or ten, there seemed to be an ongoing joke of many many broken mic stands. All part of the brilliance, that and the fact they all seemed to have so much fun performing together.
I had a live album of his, and there's a spot in one of the songs where he messed up his mic stand grab, so there's a moment of laughter at himself in the middle of the song before he keeps on singing.
One thing you will never be at this man's concerts is bored. He is high energy all the way through his performance getting his fans pumped all the way to interacting with his band. An amazing live singer he even chucks in a bit of comedy just for fun. I know his drummer Angus has been with him for a long time as with the backup singers, same for Brett on the guitar. John Farnham is a legend where as once you've heard him sing you want more, am I right there my man?
Totally agree man, I have always loved JF, we grew up with him in NZ. But these reactions and the time this guy takes to appreciate even the little details has absolutely blown my mind when it comes to the force that is John Farnham!
Yes mate.... Another Aussie classic sung superbly by John and GREAT band as usual. We as kids and still to this day when I hear it sing the chorus as "It's a long way to the shop of ya want a sausage roll" Either that or a "Chicko roll" and different other saying that I won't mention here 😉.
He fell backwards off a stage in London in 1998 singing Two Strong Hearts and got up with no help still singing and the band didnt stop to help either 😂❤🎉
He has a lot of charisma our John , you tell a good singer by his back up band and they are always happy and having such a great time , they love being on stage with Farsey.,
I love watching you, watching them... Puts a smile on my face ❤️🇦🇺🥂 You do know it’s a AC/DC song, right? By the way, he’s got a great Arse.... seen it close at one of his concerts 🥰🥂🇦🇺
Love your enthusiasm for John, it's so refreshing and pure. He really is an amazing artist in every sense of the word. I mean he is constant with his outstanding vocals, even now he still sounds the same and he sings with seemingly no effort at all, it just pours out of him.
I remember being shocked when I first heard that John was covering AC/DC! But he kills it - like everything. John Rocks! The song is an anthem down here, a Bon Scott AC/DC masterpiece. Even Billy Thorpe did a version with the whole ensemble of the 'Long Way to the Top' shows which was celebrating "however" number of years of Aussie RnR.
I love how much enjoyment you get out of watching farnsy, its infectious. I have seen him live many times, his mic technique is flawless. He does the mic stand tricks all the time. He does miss every now and then.. keep up the good work..💪
I have watched you react to John Farnham so many times and it still makes me smile how you react to his talent. And I agree with you - he is an alien from a distant galaxy.
One of Australia's greatest rock anthems and John and his phenomenal band takes it to another level and make's it their own, I fondly remember those live shows in the 80's and 90's when they blew us away with it as an encore, what memories! Cheers
Thank you for recognising our John as one of the best vocalists of all time! I guess we underestimate him at times - he's ours and we're keeping him kind of thing. You have opened him up to the world and I thank you for that - John deserves it. Our John's health is not the best right now - keep fighting mate, Australia is right behind you! xxx
I get all excited when I see you covering performances by John Farnham or Jimmy Barnes, because you KNOW you're gonna get excellence. The moment you mentioned John with Tom Jones on this AC/DC song, I said YES YES YES... because I'd seen them do it together, and it was awesome. In fact there are two performances... one when they were on tour together and another at an ARIA awards show in Australia. BUT, I'm glad you did this video per your Patreon request because I hadn't seen it, and it was absolutely thrilling. John Farnham is like a vocal acrobat, and, despite his microphone trick prowess where he occasionally misses, he NEVER misses with that incredible voice of his. Effortless! Now... go enjoy John doing this song with Tom. You will love it!
You're right Big Man - G5! Farnsey had a heap of "rope tricks" when the mics used to have leads attached. He killed five band members learning his mic stand chucking routine (kidding). Farnsey!!!
as i always say , YOU MAKE ME LAUGH SOOOOO MUCH, as soon as jimmy or john shows up you smile so much and it hasn't even started yet mate , pause when you like , talk when you like , that's why we are here , their music has always astounded me and you SIR always make me smile , cheers mate !!!!!!!!!!!!
His too good really. If you listen closely when he belts out it’s like he turns his voice into stereo mode. It’s like he has two voice boxes going on. Your right Nick about hitting that button his got. And he always know when to activate it. Another top reaction man👍
This was so much fun , but you should see him doing this from his 1980 concert with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra , the conductor and the orchestra were all having so much fun LIVE they could not stop smiling and laughing , along with about 7 thousand people cheers from Australia
Nick, the guitarist in the video with the black shirt and shorter hair is the late Stuart Fraser. Stuart was the lead guitarist for Jon Stevens/Noiseworks as well before joining John's band. I was devastated when he passed away. RIP Chet
Its so refreshing to see thenext generation getting into Farnham and Bon Scott's AC/DC song, I am old enough to say I went to Johns wedding, (not as a guest haha at St Johns Church Glenroy) I also met him outside his mother in laws house, loading the trailer, most down to earth guy ever, BTW he said hello to me first x such a legend
Brilliant!!!! 👏👏👏👏😊😊he always has swung the stand …I’ve seen him in 5-6 shows and he did it at all😂😂😂💞💞💞💞🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺..this usually was sung to warm up…AC/DC’s song!!
He just one of kind. Ive been fan since 1987 when your the voice came. And every time i hear him singing live I still get surprised by his vocal range. His just amazing. Mindblowingly good.
Haha As much of an absolute master John is of throwing around those mic stands, he does occasionally miss. Sometimes in one show he’ll go through 4 or 5 stands because he keeps destroying them. He’s the man!
John Farnham is my childhood. I feel so grateful that I got to grow up with these great Aussies musicians, especially going to their live concerts, or pub gigs. The kids of today get video's yeah, but we got to get up close and personal in the pubs with Jimmy, Diesel, Screaming Jets, Divinyls, Noiseworks and the list goes on. Seen Farnsey live 17 times, and would still be first in line for tickets if he did another Perth gig. Farnsey live is spectacular, and all en cumbering, theres nothing like it. Keep up to the great Aussie story, and ill keep following
Oh gosh I get so excited when you post anything from Farnsey, Barnsey, Guy Sebastian or Matt Corby !!! I love how it didn’t take you too long to figure out his mike tricks- I think you picked it up after like 2 live show reactions.
There’s a video of him from 1988 live in Melbourne singing you’re the voice- during the 1 SONG they replace his mic stand TWICE! And my 4 year old son loves the bit where he throws the mic stand up and he misses catching it, and ends up getting clobbered by the same stand and falls on the floor - yet doesn’t miss a beat in the song 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yeh I agree I’ve heard of head voice and chest voice and mixed - not entirely sure what it all means.. I’m no expert at all but since learning about falsetto it seems JF is doing something different as his vocal chord are still belting at these high notes
"It's a long way to the shop when you want a sausage roll" 🤣, we seem to change words to songs 🤷🏼♀️👍. I continually smile and laugh at your JF Reacts. Thanks for the good times Nick 👏🥰, I'd love to come to your house to party 🥳
That’s Johnny’s band, Chong his longtime musical director on keys, just have to say love Chong’s hair! Seriously he could sing anything with anyone and hold his own. Facts. Great cover of AC/DC song.
Guitarist is Brett Garsed (Rambo) he left for 4 yrs to go play with The Nelsons (Ricky's twin sons Gunnar and Matthew) in the states... Johns band has only been switched out over the years a few times... Jack Jones , Phil Buckle (both from Southern Sons) Stewie Fraser (Noiseworks) have been in to replace or join Brett - some stayed ... bass players have changed for periods... Wayne Nelson (Little River Band) did a few tours... Keyboard/musical director David Hirschfelder (blonde looks like a prince haha) left to go write scores for movies and does very well ) was replaced by Chong Lim who is still with the band. .... Drummer never changed... always Angus... backing singers Lisa and Lindsay - Lisa only left to have a baby... Danielle Gaha stood in for her and stayed a while... Vanetta I think may have gone back to the states...
I love the way they combined the sax and keys to recreate the bagpipes from the original AC/DC video. Since Bon played the bagpipes in that video (and infrequently in live performances), it's a critical element that is often left out of covers.
Bro this is from Australia's Best Ever Band *AC-DC* in the original Bon Scott learned to play bagpipes for the solo. The film clip was the band on a flat bed truck driving down the street in Melbourne circa 1979? 🇦🇺
Thank you so much for doing my request!! 🤘😎🤘 Loved your comments. I’ve seen John do this song a bunch of times live. This brought back some awesome memories :)
Thx for requesting it - nothing like John Farnham - i love this concert!
I like JF's version better, great choice !
John Farnham is not just the best in the world, he has the best band in the world. Thank you for bringing him to to the USA! xxx
Welcome USA to our greatest Aussie music legend - you will never be disappointed with our John Farnham or Jimmy Barnes. These are greatest 2 soloists and make sure you watch their duets. Thankyou to all the reactors globally who are getting ourcAussie icons out there. Keep it up Nick. You are the best reactor to John & Jimmy 🥰🥳
Thankyou for loving one of Australia's Icons. Now the world can share him. Go Johnny
Nick absolutely makes my day , commenting on John Farnham. "That's my boy"😂!!!! I love that reaction. X
Wikipedia on Farnham " [1] and he is the only Australian artist to have a number-one record in five consecutive decades "
There must be SOMEONE out there who can show this to John. Our wonderful singer reacts deserves AT LEAST a comment from his hero!. SOMEONE?
Surely at least Jimmy might have told him about these videos 🤷🏼♀️
He’s 2 sons probably keep him up to date . John doesn’t do social media .
Farnsey won’t watch himself unfortunately, best chance is to do one that only shows the reaction I think
God I love your summary and love of our very beloved Mr Farnham. Love that you get it and we'll be forever grateful...
I have no words to express my feelings about
John's out of this world voice.
Well I do have 1 word......
GOAT GOAT GOAT GOAT GOAT GOAT
Who knows how to connect John and Nick?!? We neeeeeeeed them to do a chat together!!
"Dude play with daggers or nunchucks?" One of your best quotes yet 😂😂
Mate your smile and excitement was so awesome when he started singing.
Don't forget the 'yeah!' after lol
"IT's long way to the shop if you want a sausage roll", Aussie classic, sung by a Aussie legend.
these days it's more like it's a long way to the shop if you want a bog roll
I still sing that. 🤣🤣🤣
Chico roll 😄
But the shop that sells sausage rolls is across the road.
OMGosh. 🤣🤣🤣. I still sing that every time I hear this song. Insert your favorite servo hot box food !! 😜
Love your reactions and I agree he is fantastic our JOHNNY 😂😂❤ 😊🇦🇺🦛🐨

You REALLY need to see the version he did with the MSO, Melbourne Symphony Orchestra! This is great, but the MSO version blows this off the planet!

You need to see him between songs talking to the audience about his favourite thing to poke fun at….. his mother-in-law. Hehe

He s a top bloke too ! when you come to Australia you should meet him
Yes mate....
Another Aussie classic sung superbly by John and GREAT band as usual.
We as kids and still to this day when I hear it sing the chorus as
"It's a long way to the shop of ya want a sausage roll"
Either that or a "Chicko roll" and different other saying that I won't mention here 😉.
Or "It's a long way to the shop when you're livin' on the dole"
It's a long way to the Cross if you wanna f**k a mole ... sorry it had to be put in here somewhere
He fell backwards off a stage in London in 1998 singing Two Strong Hearts and got up with no help still singing and the band didnt stop to help either 😂❤🎉
He has a lot of charisma our John , you tell a good singer by his back up band and they are always happy and having such a great time , they love being on stage with Farsey.,
People forget how good John Farnham was with Little River Band
- Down the Border
- The Other Guys
Definitely the GOAT in my books… 👍😎
I love that you love John so much. As an Australian it means a lot! ❤
He was incredible and he really included the audience . He was the man’s man . He loved his groupies and we loved him right back
I love watching you, watching them... Puts a smile on my face ❤️🇦🇺🥂

It's like he doesn't do a pure falsetto voice. Those high notes all sound like they are mixed with the chest. That's very impressive
Yeh I agree I’ve heard of head voice and chest voice and mixed - not entirely sure what it all means.. I’m no expert at all but since learning about falsetto it seems JF is doing something different as his vocal chord are still belting at these high notes
This is awesome, but the live version with the Symphony Orchestra is epic!
He has the best voices for range ever
Watched this a lot. Cannot help but watch Nicks happy face😂 entertainment on his own.
"It's a long way to the shop when you want a sausage roll" 🤣, we seem to change words to songs 🤷🏼♀️👍. I continually smile and laugh at your JF Reacts. Thanks for the good times Nick 👏🥰, I'd love to come to your house to party 🥳
What an entertainer and what a voice THE VOICE 😮😂❤
That’s Johnny’s band, Chong his longtime musical director on keys, just have to say love Chong’s hair!
Seriously he could sing anything with anyone and hold his own. Facts.
Great cover of AC/DC song.
Are you ready for Doc Neeson and the Angels yet?
Live version of Am I ever gonna see your face again, of course.
Hands down you have best Farnham reactions on the internet!
Him & Jimmy are brothers from another mother! My fav song of his is the huge love Ballard called ‘Burn for you’ a whole other level of JF❤️
Guitarist is Brett Garsed (Rambo) he left for 4 yrs to go play with The Nelsons (Ricky's twin sons Gunnar and Matthew) in the states... Johns band has only been switched out over the years a few times... Jack Jones , Phil Buckle (both from Southern Sons) Stewie Fraser (Noiseworks) have been in to replace or join Brett - some stayed ... bass players have changed for periods... Wayne Nelson (Little River Band) did a few tours... Keyboard/musical director David Hirschfelder (blonde looks like a prince haha) left to go write scores for movies and does very well ) was replaced by Chong Lim who is still with the band. .... Drummer never changed... always Angus... backing singers Lisa and Lindsay - Lisa only left to have a baby... Danielle Gaha stood in for her and stayed a while... Vanetta I think may have gone back to the states...
Vanetta retired to the gold coast from memory
@@CaptainsChannel58 Half her luck ! Haha.. .Cheers for the info
I love the way they combined the sax and keys to recreate the bagpipes from the original AC/DC video. Since Bon played the bagpipes in that video (and infrequently in live performances), it's a critical element that is often left out of covers.
Bro this is from Australia's Best Ever Band *AC-DC* in the original Bon Scott learned to play bagpipes for the solo. The film clip was the band on a flat bed truck driving down the street in Melbourne circa 1979? 🇦🇺
As others have said, this is an Acca Dacca classic, which Farmsey rocked it hard. He has covered a heap of songs, especially during rehearsals.
