    This concert is from the 80s. The song is from the 60s. This is John's arrangement of the Beatle's "Help". The original was more upbeat/60s pop. Farnsey is an Aussie legend who is universally loved both as a singer and for just being an outstanding human being. He's been going for half a century so plenty more to get through. Wherever possible, watch him live.

    John Farnham is an Australian singer, an icon to all of us. This particular concert was in 1989. Help is John's version of the wonderful Beatles song from the 60s. John first released this in the late 70s. John is now 73 years of age and until quite recently still had those world beating pipes. He has been unwell recently but is recovering. Just BTW, it's pronounced FARN-M

    Welcome to the world of John Farnham aka THE VOICE. One of the best vocalists and performers ever. He didn't stray too often out of Australia which is why he was not all that well known around the world back when he was in his prime. But he was HUGE in Australia and still is at 73yo.
    He first recorded his cover of this Beatles classic back in 1980 with his own arrangement, and he really made it his own. This performance with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra Orchestras was in 1989.
    Check out his most famous song
    You're the Voice from this same concert with the Melbourne Symphony Symphony Orchestra.

    John can sing anything with his phenomenal voice. Taken a Beatles classic and mad it his own. The late John lennon said this is the way it was intended to be done. Also John was asked to be the group Queens frontman when Freddie passed away. If you loved this You're The Voice is amazing with the MSO. John has done so money great songs over the decades he has been performing. Thanks for the great reaction.

    Awarded King of pop five times, Australian of the year and National living treasure, John had hits in every decade from the 1960's. Sadly he has recently had part of his jaw removed because of mouth cancer. He never did much outside Australia, preferring to stay in Australia. Get well soon, John.

    Thank you for your great reaction and appreciation of our favourite Australian Treasure, John Farnham! Like most Aussies, I’ve loved John, his phenomenal singing and performances for 50 years! He also has the best band of the most talented musicians and is often backed by the fabulous Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, plus other amazing musicians like Olivia Newton John, Anthony Warlow, Tom Jones, Jimmy Barnes, Kate Cebrano, etc. Keep watching more of his 5 decades of amazing live concerts!!!

    This concert with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra called Classic Jack is from 1989. This is John's version of The Beatles classic song Help, which he first released in 1980; this song was written by John Lennon of The Beatles, which was released as a pop song in 1965.

    Well you have seen him do a cover of a song from the mid 1960's, now you need to see him perform a 1986 song that was written for him to really show what his voice can do and why he is called "The Voice". John has a vocal range that blows peoples minds.
    The song "You're The Voice" from that same concert is the version you need to listen to next.
    He also performs a cover of an AC/CD song "Its a long way to the top" which was also performed at that concert.
    There are many other songs which John. Burn for you and Pressure Down.

    There is a sound only track of John doing a warmup sound check using black dog. You got to hear that….
    Always see John live. He is always good but his on stage is something else, particularly this concert. With the MSOrchestra.
    There is a 3 part utube called John Farnham can sing anything. You might enjoy that it gives a snippet of every style. Over many years. I saw him in the early eighties and many times up until 2018 I think. Always gave 110% . We wish him well in his recovery from cancer. If he never sings again we have a treasure trove of songs we can dive into at any time.
    Welcome to the Farnsey rabbit hole.

    That was John showing the Beatles how their song should have been sung. Richard Marx says, John has the best voice of anyone alive. I agree with that but we didn’t share him with the world. Everyone is sharing him now on UA-cam and he deserves to be heard.

    To check out John's ability as a great singer, listen to his signature song You're The Voice from this concert with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra; then listen to there warm-up sound check of Black Dog by Led Zeppelin, this is only audio as the have never performed this in a concert.

  • @Rassskle
    @Rassskle Рік тому +1

    Also check out his cover of AC/DC’s It’s a Long Way to the Top.... from the same concert, and maybe his warm up and sound check song, a cover of Led Zeplins Black Dog. .... he can sing anything. lol

  • @noone6559
    @noone6559 Рік тому +6

    This song came out in early 1980..... and John Lennon of the Beatles (the original song) actually came out and said that this was how HE had wanted to perfom the song but their record label/managers made them do an 'upbeat' version.... Unfortunately John Lennon was murdered later that year in December.... but he got to hear this before he died.....just a bit of trivia for you......
