It should be illegal for John Farnham to get old.... I won't allow it.
A million percent true. I'm with you.
It's going to be a sad day when he goes 😥
@@FionaEm A whole nation will be in mourning for a long while I would think…
I’m gonna cry a river when it happens 😭😭😭😭😭
Let’s start a petition!😛
I still watch that first Barnes/Farnham reaction of yours just to see the joy of someone discovering them for the first time. It makes me smile every time, especially when you're blown away by Jimmy and John hasn't even opened his mouth yet! 😄 Thanks for showcasing such a variety of artists on your channel. 👍
Me too! I watch it at least once or twice a week. Brings me so much joy!
me too. It's a strage new addiction
Me too love it
Me too!!😁 It was so exciting listening to to someone who critiques singing so well and really knows what he's talking about, and watch his brilliant, authentic reactions to Jimmy. And we knew John was to still to come!! Nick, I love that you critique their singing ability and separate that from whether you like the song.
Me too 😃
This is mine, I’m Sandra! So glad you liked it Nick. You can’t beat Farnsy at any age, he’s a treasure. My condolences on the loss of your friend. Love from Toowoomba, Queensland, Australia ❤️
👌🏼👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️🇦🇺🐨
Fellow Toowoomba gal here! 👋
@@lockyer114 what are the chances 🤣
Another Toowoomba girl here as well
Good on you Sandra .. agree on all points, it’s time we acknowledge one of the greatest performers of all time .. onya Nick, keep your head up.. 👍🏼
In 2018 he was 68. 68 years old and singing like this...BOOM! He's still otherworldly...
His voice really is otherwordly! When he belts, it seems to come from somewhere else. Bloody amazing 👏
Imagine John at his age now entered a talent show like the voice, imagine the judges reactions when they turn around and see this old dude with a killer voice, he would also win the competition hands down lol
Unless you or Rick enter.
Omg so funny for a muck around. Imagine if him and Barnesy did a blind audition for the voice lol
And come out with ohhh we were just passing through, though we’d pop in for a sing lol
@@sidoniewilesmith2689 the crowd would be in hysterics.... as a duo with say When the War is Over
Great idea. If all four judges were Australians they’d recognise the sound in two seconds. If not, the foreign ones would be thinking “Where have these guys been all my life”?
Do you know if John was 90and said he was doing a come back tour we’d all still go to see him. He is just Devine & sublime
absolutely....i would be there for sure lol
@@carolynh8866 wouldn’t it be fun xox
@@leannemayor5755 sign me up lol
I would be there lol I'm just hoping we don't have to wait that long 😅
@@alexandriagarnar6056 I think he has well and truely earned his retirement but I think if he did intimate concerts you know small lounges maybe 100 people at a time wow that would be incredible . So I repeat you tube videos and wish John all the love and piece in the world r,e,Bering his best friends passing . Have a great night xoxo
The little boy who sang Sadie became the singing Grand Dad - is there any wonder why we still love the dude?
John is 72 years young, 73 on July 1st and he's still singing. Aussies will always love him, he's a legend.
Amazing ..he sounds incredible and still handsome as ever .❤
The irony is farnsey probably couldn’t have taken WORSE care of his voice over the years. He’s on record as saying he was smoking up to 60 cigarettes a day at one point and still smoking cigars until relatively recently. And apparently he doesn’t even warm up 🤯
John's own son calls him a Freak Of Nature. :):)
That's insane
@@ThatSingerReactions There's video of him during rehearsals with the Little River Band.....smoking. :)
Well if the lyrics for ‘trying to live my life without you’ were true, he’d have been smoking 125 cigarettes a day 🤣🤣 but I know he didn’t write that song
@@FreeTheRocks there is also footage of him on stage in Germany smoking, must be during sound check I’d guess. ua-cam.com/video/5Rm9orStTB0/v-deo.html
I’ll never forget going to a concert in the early 90s when this song was the opening number. I was so excited during the build up, as I had loved John since I was 9 years old. This was the first time of many times I saw him in concert. He never fails to disappoint - he is by far the ultimate voice in Australia. Love him.
I get the feeling a few of his little vocal runs were to prove he wasn't lip syncing. I know in the later years he'd had accusations he couldn't be still singing like that and was either lip syncing or letting the backup singers take the lead. But damn he still has it
In last few years with the summer festivals John has laid off few higher range songs like Help . John is known for forgetting he’s lyrics so he has lyrics on the TV monitor on the stage . He calls it his Frank Sinatra because Frank Sinatra did use one all the time . He doesn’t wonder around the stage as much as did just incase he does forget .
John is also has a little bit of deafness as well in his older years .
This cant be long before his cancer diagnosis. Can tell you now id pay top dollar to see him return. One of a kind
Farnham etched into singer history as one of the best ever.
Pressure Down is SOOOO Special to me I can't even describe ❤
He's just amazing ❤🎉😊
Please tell me John knows you have been following and love him! You really need to make contact. He is an Aussie icon and still manages to get the crowd going. His backup singers have been with him for years and he is also supportive of their own careers.
I am always blown away by his incredible voice, especially recent videos and how his voice is still so amazing. But what is even more amazing is that it has been reported that John has suffered with tinnitus (ringing in his ears) and some hearing loss in his 60’s. To be that incredible as his age and with hearing issues - absolutely extraordinary 😍
John Farnham is amazing & still gets you excited after all these years. He’s pretty much everyone’s favourite 🤩
Seen him live when he was in his mid 60’s, he actually opened for Lionel Richie and the funny thing was when John finished his set half the crowd left! So many only went to see John, but they still got their money’s worth, he was as good as ever!
John is an example of how we should live our lives. Do something you love, work hard but honour you family and friends first and success later. If I was half the man John Farnham is I’d be very happy!
Nick, if you see this, I really encourage you to go to your friends funeral. It will be so so hard, but as someone who has been through a lot of grief, there is something very powerful about honouring the life of our loved ones publicly and comforting others. It really helps in the mourning process.
God bless you man. Sending you prayers and best wishes!
Funerals are very hard on everyone but to go and show your respect & mourn your loved one/friend helps with the grieving process ❤️
Every part of this statement is so well said, Joel. 👏❤️
Yeah Nick, John is freakin’ 69 years old here and belting out his iconic vocals. OMG he’s always been the best on the planet for me, but C’mon this man is a legend. And I really love your respect and support for John your support is appreciated and heartfelt. 👍👏
Yep, still amazing. Ironically, as others have said, he did nothing to maintain his awesome voice ... only recently quit smoking although he's tried many times over the years. Just perfectly gifted and a superb human being 😍
John Farnham is just simply in a league of his own. His voice is a freakish talent,, really. He still sounds amazing at the age that he is now....and weirdly, he used to be a very heavy smoker! I mean, a 2 pack a day, smoker!!! So....how he had that amazing voice even back in the day, was a defiant freak of nature..!! And, when he gave up.....his voice just got better, if that's even possible. I just love him. Thanks for all your reactions....they bring me the joy of being a fan of Johns all over again...!
When a young Johnny Farnham was king of pop in Australia and Allison Durban queen of pop they released a duet Baby Without You really worth a listen.
Oh my Dog! Allison Durban! What a blast from the past. I had many Johnny Farnham posters from magazines and the cards we collected from Tip Top bread when it was wrapped in waxed paper 🤣
YESSSSS I love this video. I think I have watched it every day since 2018 haha. I’m SO GLAD you did this one. Incredible. The man was 69 years old here!
Nice
Oh....my....god. I am bawling. I grew up listening to Farnsey and watch ALL of your reactions. I avoided this one for months however because seeing legendary singers lose their talent due to old age breaks my heart. Imagine my absolute joy and relief to see that he still sounds exactly the same!! Seeing him belt this out like he was 30 y/o and yet looking like a lovely old senior citizen made me cry. Thanks so much for this.
I understand 100%. I’m in that age bracket too. I was so happy to hear him being still the greatest.
One exceptional Aussie Talent, and all round great bloke, love John from when I first heard him as a kid (1970's) to now, his concerts are a show not just him singing, he is also one funny guy, keep up you fabulous reactions Nick👍👍👏👏
About 68yrs old! Amazing!
The first time I remember hearing this song was actually on the Late Show with David Letterman performed by Paul Shaffer and the CBS orchestra as they went to a commercial break. At the time, I had no idea who Johnny Farnham was, nor did I know then that it was his song.
We love our Farnsey. Love watching your journey to super fan.
What a beautiful human.. what an amazing talent.. I’m always proud to be Australian but performers like John Farnham make me even more proud.
I remember having to catch two buses through Sydney in 1986 as a 3 year old. Going to the music store, we bought the “whispering Jack” cassette and went home…. My mum played every song in that album at least 3 million times….. I love John. I wish him and his family all the very best in this cancer battle…..
So much love from my heart to you ❤️
John is actually 72 now ! I remeber listening to his album Whispering Jack as a kid. John is the aussie vocalist GOAT!!
75 today.
One day, John Farnham will pass away and there will be a national day of mourning. He'll get a state funeral for sure. As he was born in England, he should get a knighthood. Heck, they should reinstate The Order of Australia just for him. Australian of the Year 1988, our bicentennial year. Most Australians have an enormous amount of pride in our Johnny.
? He's been an officer of the order of australia since 1996. The only discontinued rank in the order is Knight/Dame.
@@kane29842 But shouldn’t he be Sir John Farnham?
@@TwoWrights if it was available, sure. But it isn't. You can go ahead and nominate him to be elevated to companion of the order of Australia any time you want
John ages like a bottle of wine.
He's actually said that he does very little to take care of his voice - and he was a smoker for many years, too! He was 68 in this clip, but his belting voice was just as spontaneous and powerful as ever. Amazing 👏
One georgous man!!
I have been in love with him since 1987 when Whispering Jack came out. I was 10yrs old. Told dad I wanna marry that man lol can’t believe he’s 73 this year same age as my dad❤️
I worked for Farnham's Record Company back in the 80's. I laughed when you said, " he looks after his voice." Hahaha i saw him live a bunch of times was backstage a lot and he basically warmed up by smoking a packet of cigarettes!
72 an still killing it a nation treasure
As a person from Australia I'd rank Farnham, Nick Cave and Jimmy Barnes as the top 3 from back in the day
I saw an interview with John when he was asked how he looks after his voice he said that at between 5.00 and 5.30 pm every night he has half a glass of red wine for his throat, if that feels good he has another half a glass!!
Into his 70s and sings live like a legand luke always, never had formal singing or voice training. Has been a smoker and lives a few good drinks . Farnsy the the voice
Pressure Down never sounded so damn good! I love the way he plays with the songs. I heard him once say that he could 'Swing' any of his songs. I'd love to hear a lot more of that. btw, he is my favourite Australian.
Just one of the reasons he could never be accused of lip syncing.
The link below is to a swing version of 'You're The Voice' John performed at Crown Casino Melbourne back in 1997. As per usual, Our John is bloody awesome!

He is 68. He is magic.
Hi Nick....sending u lots of love xx. Absolutely love u. Been watching u & the musical talented people for a while now. I'm not one to comment, your mentioning of your confusion as weather to go to your friends funeral, it touched me, sorry for your loss, my friend he is with u always, whatever you decide he understands. 2018 my son died aged 36. I never had a funeral for him. I just could not do it....too much.
Thank you for sharing. All walks of life listen to you mate. The young & old. We are One.
i think John Farnham is just one of those people who was blessed with titanium vocal chords.
Matt Bellamy from Muse is another one. I've never heard him be anything less than perfect live.
You can hear the age in how breathless he is
You see! That’s why I ❤️❤️❤️him. I have sent you some DVDs of his concerts. That song will be on there. He’s amazing live, he is the “ABSOLUTE BEST!
I really hope he gets back and does some shows post-Covid, it's been many years since we've seen him now
Unfortunately I don't think we will see that happen now. Deeply saddeed by his recent cancer diagnosis. Thank God for the internet and 35 years of memories we can relive. May God bless and heal him. Will always be my fave 💓
That is 68 or 69 year old John. Depending on which side of July 1st it was. I know he sounded the same at 70. I think that is why he is called the Voice and a Legend. He was still giving everything.
Great reaction again! So glad you enjoy my very favourite singer, John Farnham so much.
He was even better when he was 70years old, singing at Toowoomba’s 70th Flower Festival, September, 2019, in Qld, Australia!
What a special memory that was at the Saturday night Music Fest, watching John perform with my daughter and my dear 85yr old Mum!
Sorry to hear about your loss Nic… sending love! X
"ain't nothing old about me but my hair" - brilliant.
Red Hot Summer Tour . Australia 🇦🇺 Rocks.💙🤍❤
I was there, and let me tell you he is still as good as he was 30 years ago. He hasn't lost his ability to hold a crowd in the palm of his hand.
I've had the pleasure of meeting John quite a few times in the past 20 years or so and he is truly a wonderful person. Gotta love for his big birthday concert I was there front row with a bright pink feather bower. I'm sure John knows about you :) Everytime you cry is a fav as well.
He is a legend alright.
I love watching him perform. You can't help but be drawn into the obvious joy he is experiencing every single time. I bet he keeps his voice in such great shape by singing in the shower every day. And he's probably just as enthusiastic as he was in this clip. 😆
Boastful. He’s just a normal guy with an amazing gift. And he’s brought so much joy to us here in Oz.. But I’m glad too America especially you younger ones are finding his and all our other talented artists. So enjoy!! And I’m sorry for the death of your friend. Honey. No one likes funerals but it’s a sign of respect to your friend if u go. There’s no shame in crying and it helps you as you go thru your grief. It’s part of growing up. That’s just my opinion. You have to do what you can cope with. Love from Australia Tina Neilsen.🇦🇺♥️🙏🏽✝️ I really enjoy your reactions! Thanku🇺🇸💜
Live life with no regret
Sorry for your loss
WOW!!!!! He still is amazing isn’t he. Thankyou
Oh God he is just so so good ❤🎵🎵 pressure down is one of my favourite songs 🎵
John Farnham was 68 when he performed on that tour, yes he clearly has taken are of his instrument.
His voice is amazing, to think he was born in 1949 and I saw him in concert a few years back in 2019 when he was 70 and he still sounds the same with just as much charisma and vocal strength as when he was in his 30’s. It was such an awesome concert, one to go on my bucket list.
I was there‼️‼️‼️‼️👌🇦🇺❤️
Finally bought his 2CD greatest hits to sing along to in my car
Sounds like you have a lot on your plate. What a blessing to have a niche that allows you to relax and earn a living. Love your content. Living the dream, right?
He makes adaption so he can still sound as great, he is still having fun and the crowd loves it. I swear he just stand there and give us his cheeky grin and we would be happy.
One of my fave Farnham tracks.
"He must take real goid care of himself"...i had to laugh as he was a longtime heavy smoker
His voice is ridiculous ❤️
He's lucky he was a heavy smoker, stopped for a few years and then started smoking cigars. Had cancer of the mouth and is recovering cancer free today.
YES he's STILL so great.....part of the soundtrack of my life.
I'll PM you Nick tonight......
🙏
That’s why he’s “the voice” 😁👏🏻 my favourite John song is “two strong hearts” it’s soooo groovy and his voice is amazing 👍🏻
He said recently he'd been smoking cigars and inhaling them, getting a bit addicted. .. his doctor found something that scared him so he stopped right there and then.
John is 71 yrs young now & still sounds amazing.
Hi Nick, John is 69 here, an is amazing to all of us. ❤👍🇦🇺
I wish I could turn back time so I could relive all of the great times I had at concerts and spending time chatting after gigs. That was such a happy time.
Sorry to hear about your friend, funeral are never easy, take care of yourself whatever you decide to do.
I saw him on this tour at the Sandstone Point Hotel. We had an amazing time and everybody was up dancing and singing along with him
I love how much you love John, it’s the best 💗
I remember the first time I saw your first reaction to John I was crying with joy....Yes Nick your 'get' him...as to him looking after his voice...well I can only say the God must have blessed him with golden tonsils lol as he was a pack a day smoker and later cigar smoker...never had a singing lesson just born to perform and bring joy to us all. Another stunning reaction my friend...
I always thought he was good, but you have given me a whole new appreciation of him.
Amazing
I’ve found John singing this song live (high quality) when he was a bit younger and I think you’d love watching that one too!
How could you not like him, he's like everybody's best mate. 🇦🇺
😂 I only had my headphones one in the beginning, an wasn’t watching
The video… because I was just getting me some coffee ☕️
Came in the room and watched the screen 📺
OMG HE STILL GOT IT ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love Farnham ❤️ and love ❤️ your reaction ❤️
Have a blessed day 🙏🦋🦋🦋
I think Farnssy was about 73 when he did this concert. WOW what a voice.
From an Aussie. Cheers mate
This is another one of my favourites of Farnesy 😘
He can do no wrong and as I’ve said before he’s still a freak live!!!!!
He’s 72 now and still has a fantastic voice
Ahhh Johnny Farnham aka The VOICE... check out touch or paradise and when the war is over they are other classics. You already did two strong hearts that song is money lol
He never did anything to look after his voice. A friend of mine said 40 years ago, "He won't last long the way he sings".🤣🤣🤣
That show was mostly Whispering Jack. Awesome set. Vanessa Amarosi was there too. Was epic catching up with everyone
Still going strong in his 70s here.
Just imagine what his voice would be like if he hadn't been a heavy smoker. I heard him in an interview once that he started smoking at 14 and smoked 60 a day until he gave up in his 40's. Lasted 10 or 12 years, and I reckon his voice was at its absolute best during that time till some one gave him a box of cigars as a present, and has been smoking them again ever since... fortunately he recently gave up again. I hope that person stays away from him now that he has given up again.
John Farnham just had an 11hr surgery for I think jaw cancer. He is in intensive care. 😭
