Seems incredible that we had John for so long without the rest of the world hearing him..we are blessed…glad you found him Charlie
He is a truly amazing man. I used to work in a hotel and unexpectantly John had to spend the night with us. He rang down to find out where he could iron a shirt. After talking for a few moments I told him that one of our receptionists was going to be devastated to have missed him as she ADORED him and that she would have happily iron every piece of clothing he owned. He asked me if I could call her for him. I called and got her Dad and told him that when I told her who was calling she would think I was joking so he had to reassure her it was true. When she came on the line I said her name and told her that I wanted to introduce her to her caller John Farnham, and before I went off line, I heard him say to her "So ........ I hear you take in ironing" HE TALKED WITH HER FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES. WHAT A GENTLEMAN AND STAR HE IS!!!!!!
Incredible man. I've read stories like this from others who have met him. It's no wonder he is so loved.
That's brilliant!!! Lol 😆
Love the fact that you really get John …he performs for his audience…he’s a genuinely good, down to earth guy
Thise notes, that voice , goose bumps every time . FARNSY ❤❤
In John's darkest hour in the late 70s, the once 'straight to stardom' confident 60s teenage superstar was now an adult relegated to singing in small clubs and pubs often to small polite audiences, many of whom would talk while he sang, oblivious to his genius. But like a bright coloured butterfly, he re-invented himself in his middle-age to a new generation with new music and vitality. The "young" John was back bigger and better than ever. The low times humbled him, but his voice and humour remained unscared. What emerged was the greatest entertainer of our times.
Spot on! 👏👏👏
John just wanted to sing and make people happy, after a long struggle, finally his big break came through and he became our Australian LEGEND 🇦🇺❤
It's our lovely Lisa Edwards, his long-time backing vocalist and who also features in "Angels"
There are no words that I can say about the fact that I am so glad that ppl are enjoying John. One of the nicest ppl with a great voice.
I remember this my dear mum, said that inside of John there were 10 other singers trying to get out and be heard.
My mum was a smart woman.
This is a great song, and whatother way can you give it credit than having the greatest of great singers sing it.
Thanks Charlie, you are an honoury Australian.
Thank you sir. I'm honoured
Lisa Edwards is the name that escaped you. I’ve done the bagpipe bit in You’re The Voice quite a few times in concert for John and can confirm that IRL he is 💯the genuine person that he seems to be on stage
Ahh my famous friend has surfaced once again 😂❤
That's so awesome. What an experience that must have been. I absolutely love the bit with the pipes
I am sure performing with John would be amazing! The bagpipes add so much to the overall entertainment! Your input is much appreciated!
@@Dr_KAP Ha😇
Yup.
Us Aussies loved him for decades whilst the rest of the world had no idea…
Welcome..
Nono…I’m from Germany and i love him for decades as well 😍
@@dannyboy3238 I suppose you've checked out John Farnham - Rockpop Concert 1987 Munich Riem Reitstadion (Remastered) Fantastic.🥰
Good to see you back Charlie.
You can never go wrong with our John.
Wasn't that just outstanding?
Lol I'm not stalking you l promise! 🤣😂
@@SuzyTrippa good to see ya Suz.. Bit worried when you went AWOL
Find every album and recorded concert that you can and enjoy..he lifts you up
John is the type of human we all should aspire to be ❤
I love this clip. John and his backup singers are brilliant. You are right when you say John is just being himself. There is no ego in John, he is just one of the crowd in his mind. He always acknowledges his band members by name in all his concerts. We admire him for his incredible voice and magnificent stage presence, but we love him for the beautiful person he is.
Simply John ❤
Yes, John loves to sing and is so appreciative of and grateful to the people who give him the opportunity. So different from many stars.
You're right Charlie. John has an authentic love and joy when he connects with the audience. He loves us and we love him.
I think that look in John's eyes is the look of someone in his element, doing what he was born to do 😊 What a master he is! Thank you for another heartfelt reaction to 'our John' ❤
John was born in England, Dagenham Essex, came to Australia with his family at 10 year's old. Thank you England, he is out John now, and Aussies love him. Magnificent singer, great reaction 💖
I love watching this clip over and over…even though Christmas has been and gone. So awesome! John Farnham is phenomenal, as always!
I'm crying. This is pure perfection. His voice soars and lifts me up with it. I watched and listened to this a dozen times over Christmas (and cried every time). He is four years older than me, and so I've been blessed to have enjoyed his music in my life for most of my life. I just love him!! He is the goat!! Superb singer, superb performer and such a beautiful, caring, humble man.
You totally hit the nail on the head. John is never anything but authentic. And he sure does connect with the audience. That's why we love him so much. They broke the mold when they made our Farnsey.
Even after watching that performance amd so many others so many times over many many years, I still feel the connection. It makes me feel happy, emotional and proud to see John so well loved even after all these years
Way he makes us feel when he sings and performs is incredible
Stunning performance. What I notice consistently is John's posture. He stands tall. It's magnetic. He most definitely has personal magnetism.
You’re a true gentleman Charlie. If you ever make it to Oz I’ll put the barbie on for ya. Your admiration for our John is awesome to see.
Bro! Stop introducing to me to stuff I’ve never heard before, my listening pile is getting ridiculous now 😂
This sounds so pure! What voices ❤
Charlie has reacted to John a lot, you should check out some more of those videos - John is phenomenal, for all the reasons Charlie expressed here, and because his vocal ability is spectacular. :)
Haha yeah John is amazing bro. Watch my reaction to him doing 'You're The voice Live'
@@Saan42 I’m down the Charlie smith rabbit hole now 😂 loved it all so far, the songs and his breakdowns
@@TheCharlieSmithChannel coming up now!
John is the ultimate performer.
Couldn't have said it better
Love this! Lisa Edwards is the third backing vocalist. A perfect blend of harmonies.
The beautiful Lisa Edwards is the other back up singer for John. The "bloody hippie" , Venetta & Lisa are absolutely fantastic.
There is and will NEVER be ANOTHER "JOHN FARNHAM".
I was at one of his concerts once right up close to the stage & he held out his hand to me and shook my hand.
Beautiful man & a great Australian. ❤
Get well John. We miss you
Welcome back Charlie. Thankyou for reacting to this. Your reactions are as genuine as John's performing. Love you both ❤
So beautiful. Omg can’t help but shed a tear. You get it Charlie that is why we love him so much in Australia
Wow wow wow. Omg absolutely stunning
exactly he is an inclusive performer, down to earth Legend
Our John is just remarkable. I have seen him live many times over the years even in small pub settings. Elvis also does a gorgeous version of You’ll Never Walk Alone.
You're very lucky that must have been quite something to hear him singing up close!
@@devi_- yes so lucky, they were magical times. He never disappoints and such a lovely, humble, funny guy.
John sang You'll never walk alone in his concert to raise funds for our drought afflicted farmers in Australia. He always gives so much to his fellow humans in need. And yes everything about him is genuine. 💗💓💖
That 1994 version at the drought concert was brilliant ,as usual.
He’s lost me on the referendum voice
Ñot me I proud of him. If he can't express his feelings without back lash then you weren't a real fan in the first place
@@tlb2970 So why did you watch this reaction then?
@@NannyLyn53 he should stay out of politics, I’m not the only one btw
Just discovered your channel Charlie. Loving what your genuine love of the artists and the music.
As a proud 61 year old Australian that has adored John Farnham since the 1960’s, he is a truly humble, funny, authentic, and inspiring human being. There has never ever been a single controversy about him. He is without question, THE greatest male singer of all time. I’ve had the honour of seeing him in concert only twice. You’re right, he makes you feel like he’s getting more joy from performing for just you than you get from him. I’ve never experienced that from any other artist. He’s an incredible human being.
He's my favorite singer! Godbless John!❤❤❤
Lisa, Venetta and Lyndsay are such great singers in their own rights. Theyve known and worked with John for so long now that they know his voice well and fit in with him perfectly.
Thank you Charlie you nailed it. Johns eyes are so kind and he loves to sing it's hard to fake. Beautiful Charlie❤❤❤
I remember watching Hey Hey It's Sat, John Farnham blew Tom Jones mind when they sang together. John Farham is a superstar.
That is what we do in every town all over Australia. Every child grows up knowing they will hold a candle in a cup because Christmas here is Summer. Or we can stay home and watch this on TV. John and his singers make my heart smile. He truly loves everyone and so so Lisa, Lyndsey and Miss Venetta. When you work with John you never leave.
Lisa Edwards. Venetta Field has sung back up for many well known singers, for a while she was an Ikette with Ike and Tina Turner. It doesn't have to be Christmas to listen to John singing Carol's.... I think the angels found this amazing voice floating round the ether and waited until they found the right man to give it to. Jan. '24. UK. E ❤. .
Haha. I love that concept. What are the chances of that amazing voice being matched with an equally amazing spirit. I find John Farnham inspiring in every way and I'm not one for idolising anyone. I think Farnham is my one exception. Thanks Charlie for the reaction and Paul for requesting it. ❤
@@raelenewilliams2763 am with you all the way. John is my top of the list favourite performer. There isn't one song, or one performance, that I don't love, and not one dud note in any of them. Just phenomenal - pure gold .. Jan'24.. UK. E♥️
Great to see you back doing what you do best Charlie 😊
I adore John as well and I can not wait to see more John reactions. The massive John Farnham fans also LOVE the fact that you Love him like we do. Look after yourself and take care.
I forgot to say the other BV is Lisa Edwards
There's a great video " Tour of duty " , John sings this to the Aussie troops .
I know that clip. He also sang You’re the Voice to the troops
I think it's remarkable that someone who has been famous since he was a teenager and was really hounded by the media and fans at times can have such love for people. Even going back to a very early interview with a particularly judgemental interviewer he talks genuinely about how much he loves his audience. I hope he's doing well ❤️🙏
My God he has a fantastic set of "lungs"! I absolutely love that tune. I heard him in concert many years ago and several times since. I am 67 years and I have followed his wonderful career like forever. Thanks "Farnsy".
the other girl is Lisa Edwards! A lovely lady I had the pleasure of meeting after one of their Concerts in Perth about 15 years ago.
And to think, he's a damn good plumber.
lol!
Praying to sweet Jesus that he recovers and is able to sing again soon. The world needs his voice and inspiration more than ever before.
Thank you Charlie .So love your reactions to John. Love your appreciation of John and your understanding of the genuine ,wholesome ,special person that John is. This also brings me to tears. Watching John perform is always an emotionally happy experience because you can feel the love he has for singing , for his band and for his audience. So much joy.Love you John❤️
I always love your appreciation of John's talent and his music ❤
Silent night from Carols is another great one
YAY Charlie John Farnham!! This is awesome ❤❤❤
Love carols by candle light, it's done in every state, it's free and families come along with a picnic and a candle and listen to amazing artists singing Christmas carols.
The one in Melbourne (this one) is by far the best in the Country (and that is from someone who grew up in Adelaide, lived in Melbourne for a little while, and now has lived in Sydney longer than the others now.)
He’s a blessing to us all 🥰
John, See you. not through you. To him you are real. If a look can acknowledge you exist it's John
Two of the most
beautiful songs I've ever heard, because a legend sang them!!! ❤ You John!!! Thank you ❤
He's definitely swoonworthy!😊
Never disappoints.
I so wish you had had the opportunity to see John live. You are so right in your description of him. He exudes love and care on stage. He touches everyone
It's never the wrong time of year to listen to this, especially "You'll Never Walk Alone".
It got me too Charlie 😭, as it does every time I hear/see John do this one. It's my absolute favourite 👌😌💖
It's so nice to see someone who reacts to John and just *gets it* and understands everything he's about. So thank you for that.
Welcome back Charlie. John always gets you in the feels. He makes it feel personal and intimate. He is authentic that’s why us Aussies love him, we don’t tolerate bs well. Great reaction as always. 😊❤️🇦🇺👍🏼
Good on you for giving props to his world class backup singers. The one you can't remember is Lisa Edwards.
Unbelievable!
Crying like a baby in adoration of this glorious singer.Thank you.
Not surprised it hit ‘the feels’ Never Walk Alone is emotional at the best of times. Your comment in the afterthought about John caring about making a connection got to me also. It’s so true, every audience member at even his biggest gigs walked away feeling like they’d been to a mate’s place. Thanks for this reaction. Loved it.
Thank you for this video. John's love and appreciation for his fans is epic and uplifting. Hard not to love him back. Such an inspiration!
I've never heard of this guy before. I'm sad 😢that I missed out for so long. Goosebumps galore. Glad I found your channel and this man.😊
John could literally engross an audience by singing the phone book
How lucky are we to have him?!
I play this every year at Christmas I just love John rendition of this song I never walk alone. I just wish they recorded this live at the time but we are lucky that someone recorded it off the tv so we have this.. 🧐😊🇦🇺
Love love love
Thank you Charlie for showing this beautiful song and for your emotional reaction, which I too had a tear. John is a superb artist who has bought so much joy and love into peoples lives through his music …. Thanks 🙏
He comes across as such a beautiful soul. I'm so happy that we get to witness him and his beautiful voice now. You're the voice is one of my all time favourite songs, that I still listen to on a regular basis, all these years later.
Hark now hear THE angel sing! It’s February, I hate god bothering stuff for personal reasons, and I stopped dead in my tracks to listen to this again. Such is the power of Farnsey, and the brilliant Lisa, Lindsey, and queen Venetta. Great reaction
You also seem to be a genuine guy Charlie…love your reactions
I haven’t heard that, it was fantastic ! Thank you for presenting it!
Richard Rogers wrote wonderful music. And John is a gift!
I've had the privilege see John in several live performances. He's a great performer with a wonderful voice. He has a great time on stage and the fans join in the fun.
You talk about John's lack of self indulgence, and that he sings for everyone else. I think this is both beautiful and very true. Case in point: he sang BACK UP VOCALS on a track for a comedian who goes by "The Twelfth Man". Given you're British, I think you've a good chance of appreciating the song "Marvellous" (particularly if you like, or at least understand, cricket). Bonus vocal on the track is fricken Jimmy Barnes.
Wow!!! I'd like to hear that. John and Jimmy !!!!
He never misses a note. He is perfection. ❤
What a privilege it would have been to witness this performance.
One of the great things about Christmas in the middle of summer is carols by candlelight concerts, the two big ones in Melbourne and Sydney and countless smaller ones in parks all around the country.
Enjoyed your reaction! Thank you for appreciating our legendary John Farnham!
It was in the 80s when John came to my attention the Falkland’s war was happening and this guy at the time was best thing in music in Ozzie he has a great voice and I still love his songs today,iam 83 he’s good NZ.
We Love Our John!!!!❤
You’re spot on about everything you’ve said about John, he’s just there for the love. The greatest male vocalist of all time. Thanks for supporting our John.
John has so many relatively 'unknown' songs/performances which are also underrated: another one for you to react to: It's always the Same (fight for survival), and Thunder in your Heart , as usual there are still many to enjoy! Also: That's Freedom, Listen to the Wind and Angels with Lisa Edwards, one of his long time backup singers. Or: Let me Out, and Jilly's Song (written for his lovely wife)
That’s because he is a wonderful man so sincere,that’s why we Aussies have loved him all these years.🇦🇺🇦🇺👍
There’s a video on here of John performing “you’re the voice” at a music festival with Coldplay, and he’s every bit as connected with those kids as he is here (and they’re singing with him!)
He is a genuinely good guy, performers donate their time to perform at carols by candle light and it’s not the only time he’s done so. I can’t count how many fund raisers, benefits or similar things he freely gave his time to support.
A more recent example being the bushfire concert in early 2020 where none other than Queen took the stage with him.
You’ve got to be a pretty special person to have Queen want to be your backing band, especially for free 🙂
Apparently both Brian and Roger were VERY interested in John doing a stint with their band after they got over Freddie's passing!
My favourite YTer meets my favourite artist singing both my favourite songs. Perfection. Thank you.
another beauty. Love John always.
Vanetta Fields was one of Barbra Streisand’s backing singers (The Orioles) in A Star Is Born
I'm glad you finally reviewed this one.... Goosebumps.
And yes, that look John gives the crowd is 100 percent genuine, love and respect and it's definitely two way.
This clip always makes me feel calm and happy.
Thanks!
Thank you so much Darryl. I appreciate you 🙏🏼
John makes every member of the audience believe he's singing just for them. I don't think you can say that about anyone else. Even Freddie, brilliant as he was, sang to the entire crowd at once. John somehow manages to achieve a personal connection that others just can't.
I was just thinking yesterday that it's been ages since you did some Farnham and here it is!
Thank you for sharing this, as it holds a very special place in my heart. We played “You’ll Never Walk Alone” at my dear Dad’s funeral. 💛🙏💛
John loves singing to and for YOU. He makes each song he sings a gift personally for you.
PS have you thought of reacting to Stan Walker's 'I Am' yet? It is amazing
I accidentally ran across your channel, Charlie, and I am in love with you! I watched your review of Queen and Adam Lambert, and it was so special to see a man who can show true emotion! I instantly subscribed! Then I watched your John Farnham song "You'll Never Walk Alone", and that blew me away as well! Two of my favorite singers in a row, thank you for your genuine emotional reaction!!! By the way, are you married, LOL? Your new biggest fan, Sue
Ahh thanks Sue. I'm really pleased you got something from my videos. Welcome on board ☺️
