That peak chorus is amongst the most committed and passionate lines ever delivered by a singer. He didn't just put his soul into it, he wrapped ours in as well.
Maybe UA-cam was always meant to be the vehicle for the rest of the world to discover one of the most talented, most underrated Australian artists ever. John Farnham is a glorious talent.
Never underrated, just under exposed. He did undertake some European touring and usa touring, but missed his home and family life so global touring didn't happen. He has a happy, grounded life with his lovely family, friends, backing singers, band members, and seems to have a real love fest with his fans. Sounds like win win all round. 9.1.24. UK. E❤
Um... John was NEVER underated as an Australian singer.
This is why John Farnham is called "The Voice" Strong natural the voice...
From 8.00 to 10.00, quite possibly the best vocals in the history of music 👌
I really can't think of much to argue with that. Just...ridiculously good. I was never really a Cold Chisel fan, but this piece has earned new respect from me.
Makes my heart ache and soar at the very same time, even after more than 50 viewings. Our John
❤❤❤
This man John Farnham is perhaps the most amazing singer of all time !
I mean he sings better live than on the bloody record ! He is just insane !
He can sing any style any song, make it his own and usually lift the roof off the building every time.
This version is jaw dropping and so emotional i tear up every time.
John has the power from above 🙏
Rejoice in the out of this world vocals of the GOAT!.❤❤❤❤❤
@@louiserawle8999
Amen !
Im Australian and yet, until I watched your music critiques and reaction videos, I too underestimated the quality of John and Jimmy's voices on the world stage!! Thanks so much for educating us on how good these two singers are!
I love this version. His voice had matured and he hit those high notes with sooo much power. Chilling performance. This is a Cold Chisel original song.
yeppp...Cold chisel are MAAADDDD...but this version rocks, and love me sm jack
No, I believe it was Little River Band that wrote and performed it in the TV series Sword of Honour.
@@58Kym Nah it’s cold chisel - Steve Preswitch wrote it in 1982 when he was with Cold Chisel- it was on Circus Animals. LRB did a remastered version later on in 1986.
I love how he can still get your “shocked face” after many reactions. Our John is amazing. Your reactions are so honest. It’s great.
I’m telling you he is without a doubt The GOAT 🎉 it’s official. The search is over. What a blessing for us all🙏
That power and emotion. This is why he's my favourite singer of all time 😍
I was either at this concert or another night of this tour - the crazy thing about John’s power is that the amplification does almost nothing. It’s ALL him. I was seated one tier up off one side of the stage, and at one point I heard his voice directly. As in, I could hear him OVER the sound system. It was just astonishing.
Wow, that’s so amazing!
Incredible, isn't it? Saw him live twice, incredible show. Always entertaining. I know what you mean about the power of his voice, it's like amplification is irrelevant.
I was at one of his tent concerts regionally and he did not need amplification!! Sensational power in his voice, and even after all this time it’s still the most amazing concert EVER!
How can I hear that and not get blown away?!
What a f***ing legend he is !!!!!!!! I just love your reaction to his brilliance, it makes me happy :)
Ditto
Oh yes 🥰🥰💗
He lives every song, He doesn't just sing it. Whispering Jake, The Voice, or John Farnham, Either name. He's top Notch
The best line you’ve ever said in any of your videos to date- “we’ve got to pray on that”. 😂. I just love how much you love and appreciate John’s extraordinary vocals, in this video and all the others. I get so excited when I see you’ve done another Farnsey song.
This performance might just be one of his best ever. He is simply phenomenal. Incredible 😍
I totally agree.. Although... Nic's reaction to Help is my all=time favourite.
@@kerryhamilton1968 oh yes I agree. I have rewatched it several times. I just love Nick’s reaction to that one. Possibly my favourite ever farnsey performance. It’s phenomenal
I walked out of a public bathroom at Melbourne Airport once, and John was walking towards the door. At first I was I wondering "who is this guy smiling at me", and then I realised who it was, and managed to get a smile on my face in return just as he walked past and through the door. I've always thought of him as a true gentleman ever since.
That is one of the greatest single performances of all time from any artist dead or alive.
John shows off his amazimg range. Perfect pitch, how he conveys emotion thru song and
his absolute amazing performance skills . GOAT GOAT GOAT! !!!!!
Oh, I’ve been waiting for this one. I went to a brutally sad funeral today, for a man who worshipped music in every style. I’ve decided this is a gift from him xo
🙏❤️ to you Renee & to your loved one x
@@jorice5528 thank you, that’s so appreciated xo
Beautiful thought
I am sorry for your loss.
Condolences
I love John so much, he is in my opinion the "GOAT" I will never understand how he isn't more recognized internationally.
I love how you talk about him and how his EXTRAORDINARY VOICE moves you and all who hear him sing.
Just freaking beautiful and your reaction made it even more special. Finally people outside of Australia are seeing and hearing this great man's talent.
I saw John in NZ 2 years ago when he was clearly still recovering from serious illness (aside from the fact he is in his 70s)and he still belted out songs exactly like this. The man is a living legend.
I love watching Johns control of the microphone, spacing it based upon his belting power so as to not overwhelm the audience. A master of control.
Agreed.
Or blast the eardrums of the sound crew!
One of my favourite performances of his, and what a song, what a voice. This guy just gets better with age.
Love your sayings: “Let’s park the car for a minute”. If we “parked” every time John does his thing, we’d never get anywhere! 🤣🤣
But you are so right, we need to take a moment sometimes & just appreciate John’s artistry ✌🏼
I think this is the best version of this iconic song. The emotion and passion he puts into it is epic. Even an older John is simply perfect. His diction, range, mic and breath control, his pronunciation is next level.
I've seen John sing this live many times over the years. It always blows me away.
he's just suffered from throat cancer....we may not hear that amazing wonderful voice again...omg what a loss to the world so much love from Australia xxxxxx
The best singer in history period
I've seen him live in concert and we took him for granted you could say. You sir have really shown us the man and how good he is. Truly you have and I know 65 year olds that tear up when watching your reactions after I shared links and say they really didn't know how good Farnsey and Jimmy were. . That is why you are so popular in Australia. Also being a good nice guy helps a lot these days ;-)
Always loved listening to him, but you’re right we didn’t know how rare he is … and he let’s us sing along with him 🤣
That was one of the best concerts I've ever been to
You just sit back and enjoy the entertainment from one of the greatest singers ever
I still remember it like it was yesterday
I was raised on listening to John Farnham. Will never get tired of hearing him sing. I hope he gets to see your reactions to his songs one day. Keep em coming, we love them.
Johnny Farnham phenomenal
(He was and still is the voice
Period 💯)
You made me laugh out loud! John Farnham! Australia's LEGEND!!! 💕
I think the best Australian songs are not patriotic anthems, they are love songs to our country. Damn it! That made me cry at 9:10. and when he sang "get blown away" my jaw dropped too.
Nice description - "love songs to our country." 💙
Yes. The cry in "not get blown away." So moving.
"They are love songs to our country" How true!
Beautiful way of putting it. Nice Steve 👍
Very well said. Patriotism doesn't exist doesn't need to here.
I man that feels is a man that heals
Some reason I always preferred John singing this song even though I love the original. He’s unbelievable
I cried for this song 😢❤
I have watched this version many times and I said to myself he doesn’t know what’s coming up then wham
John gives it full throttle and the expression on your face, priceless.
"let's park the car for a moment"!!!!😂. Nick u are brilliant !
If John does a 2022 tour I’m definitely going. I took for granted his many Farewell tour dates years ago. I was too young to appreciate his iconic hits!
I'm not sure that will happen due to his best friend Glens passing, and may not ever again 😥
He's on an old fart he's done touring
I’m old enough to remember Sadie the cleaning lady! He’s our Aussie treasure
@@leandabee He's well and truly paid his dues and given all.❤
@@mssuziquzi 😔💖
Thank you for your reactions on JF your reactions are fantastic and I can see you get it. You get how great this man is. We love him, his voice and his personality.
John was in his fifties here and still singing as brilliantly as ever. This is my favorite performance. It's insane, I watch it all the time.
At 53 years of age. Amazing singer and performer. Gives 100%, 100% of the time.
He’s 73 today. I can’t wrap my head around that. 👏😊😊
Yes, he was 53 here & still as beautiful & powerful as ever! Goodness! I love this man & as always, love your reactions to him!😍
This song, particularly sung with this much passion, hits hard right now! 😢🇺🇦
I watch you with a goofy smile, and I laugh out loud when John belts and you are speechless. This was so fun to watch. Been following him since 1967 and it is just so entertaining watching you…watch him. 😀
Absolutely love your reactions to JF. Thank you. ❤❤❤❤❤❤ John.
Your reactions helps us truly appreciate how blessed we are to be listening to Johns singing talents… he’s remarkable 👏🇦🇺👍
When these awful floods have finished, I would not be at all surprised to see him once again come out and give his all at another benefit to help those that were affected, just like he always does to help his country recover ❤🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Maybe not i know he would do anything for his fellow countrymen in their time of need, but it would usually be up to Glenn Wheatley to get the ball rolling
@@eileendoyle6537 you don't think someone would invite him?
@@eileendoyle6537 I’m pretty sure that Glenn didn’t make every phone call, he would have staff, and someone will have taken over the business side of things. At some point John will want to do a tribute to Glenn also, and a charity gig would be a great way to do that!
I wouldn’t be surprised either. It would be wonderful to see him again, doing what he does BEST!
@ me how are you coping with the floods ,such devastation .
Have loved this beautiful human since I was around 15 ... have been to many concerts ... he has never missed a beat ! ... a consummate entertainer !! ... took my reluctant son when he was 15 (very musical himself) ... ' don't want to see Johnny Farnham !! ' ... Shut up ! already paid for the tickets ... get in the car !!! ... after that night ... all my cds of John disappeared and years later my enlightened son flew from Singapore (living and working) to see the man he was once reluctant to see !! ... this was not combined with any family gatherings ... just for the musician he now truly appreciates !!!! .... :)
The connection between John Farnham and this song is this. He was the lead singer of The Little River Band for a while in the early 80s. Steve Prestwich left Cold Chisel and also joined LRB at about the same time. This song was written by Steve, who was a brilliant song writer. The world is a lesser place without him in it and his wonderful song writing skills. RIP Steve. I'm a big fan ...
There is a video somewhere on here of LRB with John and Steve doing this song for the East Africa Tragedy concert in 1985…. And John has been singing it ever since then which is pretty awesome
Thanks for filling in on that bit of important Aussie music history.
BEAUTIFUL - SO BEAUTIFUL!!!! BEOND BEAUTIFUL!! This is the best thing I've EVER seen/heard!! WHAT A VOICE!!!💐🌹💕💓🌹💗💝💐🌹💕💓🌹💗💝💐🌹💕💓🌹💗💝
Brett Garsed's wonderful guitar work complements John's vocals beautifully!!
To answer you Nic....John was born on 1 July 1949... so 54 here.
And yes, his voice is perfect.
Also love to John and his family at this time
Sadly I didn't truly appreciate John's unbelievable talents till I was much older as I've been inadvertently listening to him most of my life these days I have a spotify just for him and Jimmy the outright power of Farnsey is incredible really wish I'd seen him live when both of us where younger. There's a song called Burn for you it's subtle for his abilities but beautiful non the less qnd still makes you re evaluate your abilities if you try to sing it. Now im off to watch this performance again cause dang that was just amazing
Dont ever forget this moment bro. Honestly. Its people like u that keep the dream alive
I absolutely love your awe and appreciation for John's singing ability. It's really heartwarming.
Get well soon John. You are the voice!
One thing about going to a John Farnham concert, you would find grandma's, mom's. and little kids all there having the time of their lives!!! followers from his life time of singing!
Wowww..just Wooowwww!! I wasn't ready for the high pitched grittiness at the end didn't think he had it innim this late into his career?!? Anazinnnggg!!!!!
There is a reason no one can cover any of his songs successfully he’s the goat !!
Loveeee Johnny Farnham. Such an amazing singer and seems like a lovely guy. Great version of this!
So much raw power!😃 Touches the heart strings❤️🌏🪐🍀🙏🌕🦋👣🇦🇺🌸🦉🏡🌴🤗🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
This seems eerily appropriate with the tragic war in Ukraine 🇺🇦 “Ain’t nobody gonna steal this heart away!🇺🇦 Amen 🙏 to that!
Putin's a dictator & murderer along with his government. Blatant criminals by invading Ukraine, responsible for the death of innoncent people, destroying their homes & trying to take away their independence. This song is appropriate along with: Imagine, Rise Up, Don't Dream It's Over, et al. Prayers & blessings to the people of Ukraine. Kia Kaha (Stand Tall) Ukraine & Russia can eff off!
Honestly, just send about 45 Aussie's and Kiwi's there with a bbq and 12 tonnes of beer. War over in 10 minutes.
If that don't work, send in Mick Dundee.
This iiiiisssss so appropriate to Ukraine🥺😢🙏🏼
Steve Smith Nah, 12 tonne is not even enough given the ANZACs would drink that before, during & after banging some sense into Sputin's regimes heads. Mick's CD days of "this is a knife" are over. He needs to enjoy his retirement...
Hey this music video is old .
He still gives me goose bumps all these yrs later and your joy in him is wonderful xoxo
I saw him on this tour. And again 7 years later ( and 3 times in the previous 15 years). He NEVER sounded any different. Always awesome
And that’s why he is “The Voice”.
His voice is perfect! Every single time
This is the first John reaction of yours I have watched where I haven’t seen the performance prior.
The goosebumps I got at 9:10 from that ‘blown away’ note - just incredible from a man I have seen live at least 7 times in my life ❤️
The thing to remember about John Farnham is that he was "king of pop" in Australia in the late 1960s and early 70s. So by the time of this concert, he's been performing for nearly 4 decades, and sounding even better than his first recording in 1967.
All i am going to say is John would love your reactions. I hope someone shows them to him because i can see you have fallen in love with his music.
You do the same stuff with your head and body as me when listening and i know the feeling that creates that in me. Its admiration.
Respect my dude
John Farnham doesn’t do social media but apparently his sons keep him up to date .
Prayers to you Johnny hope all goes well get better keep good
I have loved him since the early 90’s. I got to meet him when I was a kid. He was lovely and gave me a big hug. Core memory for me ❤
I hope John Farnham sees all of your reaction videos and you get to meet him! Love from Down Under!
So many special moments in a John Farnham concert - and Brett Garson on the guitar was AWESOME as was JF
I really enjoy the joy on your face whilst listening to John.
I think he broke the law of physics broken the sound barrier
Absolutely brilliant 👏
Easily one of the world's finest singers!!
People have their own favourite version of this song, which was originally a Cold Chisel song. John and Jimmy have performed this together and tend to just belt it out all over the place. My opinion is that this particular vocal performance is John's best ever and the best version of the song I've ever heard from any performer. Cold Chisel fans will probably think otherwise and I respect that.
I'm glad you got to hear him singing this on his own. The song itself is so emotive, but layer that with John's ability to make you feel the lyrics of the songs he sings, and it's just a wonderful musical performance all round. The guitar work is brilliant. Stunning, stunning live performance of a very difficult song. Pity you kept stopping it, but you didn't know what was coming. I hope you just listen to it yourself now all the way through because you really understand the genuine passion John has for the song. Thanks for showing this.
Sorry its Brett Garsed. Brett played on just about all of JF albums from Whispering Jack on wards. He left for the states when the Chain reaction tour was on but actually played on the album. He is highly regarded around the world in guitar circles as in the top ten fusion players. And also a very nice human :)
Australian legend!!! “The VOICE”. Luv from proud Aussie!!!! Xo
I have been sitting here playing your reactions to Australian music for a solid hour. It is not for the music that I've stayed on UA-cam this long - it is for your sheer enthusiasm and appreciation. of the artists. Thank you.
When Robbie Williams performed at our AFL Grand Final 2022, he covered John Farnham's You're the voice and dropped the key 3 semitones from F to D; so you wouldn't be alone with that.
Your love for our John is so genuine. Thankyou for appreciating him!
this was the reaction i was waiting for since ya found John.
His voice peaked at 50 in my opinion. After he quit smoking at around 40
John was still smoking cigars into his 60’s
@@markjames3522 he quit for about 15 years from 1992 then started again one Christmas Day at about age 55 due to his sons giving him one according to an interview on MMM
John has made me smile for more than 30 years. My first concert was age of reason.
In a selfish way, I am so glad he never made it big on the world stage because I got to enjoy it all being in his home town.
Dude you missed out big time seeing this man do this thing
Yes, this is a Cold Chisel song, and one of the all-time Aussie rock classics. The original is a bit faster than John's live version, but both of them are magnificent! John's band is amazing in this performance ... and as for the man himself, what can I say that you haven't already said? One of the finest singers on the planet, period!
WOW, John is just WOW.
I was lucky to be sitting in that audience that time, more amazing each time he sings this song, if that’s even possible! John Farnham is the G.O.A.T. Don’t care, it’s true! The VOICE of Australia! I love your reactions. Keep them coming. You should look at Man on your mind when he was with The Little River Band live! Omg
I’ve been waiting for this performance of this song to come up! I saw this tour live from the 3rd row! It was incredible!
You could change the lyrics a little to say “ You can’t listen to this song without getting blown away “
Amazing.
you’re so lovely! 😀 i feel the same way about our John Farnham. thanks for spreading the love ❤️
you always have the best reaction to John Farnhams voice - so good always - i can tell you truly appreciate his voice
The late Steve Prestwige (sorry if I butchered spelling) wrote this. He was Cold Chisel's drummer and also Little River Band with John
The best thing about this music is you can slide into the harmony at any level
It's our Aussie anthem 😊 John was still singing age 70+
