John has been a friend for over 50 years. He is currently battling cancer. I have shed tears on many occasions thinking of the day we will eventually lose this masterful voice and character. I love him like a brother.
So many of us 100% agree with you. JOHN is definately the best singer in b the world. Being silly one minute and then that voice just explodes ❤ their voices together are just sublime
I also believe 100% John Farnham is the best singer in the world. Pitch perfect EVERY single time😮😮😮 ive never heard a bad performance.... no autotune just pure talent😁
They have perfect sound and timing together always blows you away You'll need to look at amazing grace with vendetta fields and Lindsay fields he's other two back up singers Cheers mate 👍🦘🇦🇺
You're correct, John sings as if it is as easy as breathing. Thank you for your informed comments on my favourite singer and a kind man too. You forgot gospel in that list of genres. His rendition of Amazing Grace with Venetta Fields & Lindsay Field is beautiful. How three people can sound like an entire choir while singing a cappella sections is amazing, whileJohn's shirt bears witness to the energy injected into his singing. I'd love to know the extent of Venetta's historical gospel & Motown influence. Thank you so much.
Thank you again for your great reaction and appreciation of our phenomenal Aussie legend, John Farnham. I have read previously that apparently Lisa Edwards was very nervous about being out front stage, so John was deliberately trying to make her laugh, so she would relax more? Please continue to watch many more; e.g. 'Please Don't Ask Me' with either Lisa or Olivia Newton-John.
Not sure if John did this because of Lisa being nervous, this was in 2000, Lisa had done solo performances before this, she did a solo performance of a song she had recorded on Hey, Hey its Saturday in 1985. More likely it was just John being himself having fun on stage. In the video for Lisa's induction into the South Australian Music Hall of Fame (Video below) there is a clip that looks like it might be from that concert, an outtake maybe, at the 7 minute mark where Lisa gets her own back on John doing similar and John cracks up laughing and had to stop singing ua-cam.com/video/ZP9UritnYLE/v-deo.html
Love John. Keep up the reactions. Doesn’t matter what song it it I will listen. Doesn’t matter how many times I hear some of his songs I just want to hear John sing.
Hi Torbin, the trumpeter is Bob Coassin. He’s from the USA, like Wayne Nelson. He’s had a stellar history, including playing for Frank Sinatra. That came up in a documentary about JF. More details on his Wikipedia page. If you ever watch John’s version of “That’s What Love Will Make You Do”, Bob plays a cornet solo straight after Angus Burchall’s drum solo. It’s the fastest and best I’ve heard for a long time!
And if you notice how John keeps his Mic so far down, only some one with a very strong voice can do this. Take Steve Perry for instance, especially on, For When You Love A Woman. He is also standing back from his Mic. Only the best of the best can do this.🎼❤️🇦🇺❤️🇺🇸🕺🏻💃🎸☘️
I adore this performance, John and Lisa just singing in harmony with light music accompaniment, it's almost acapella.
The muted trumpet must be the most haunting sound in music.

He may not lose his beautiful voice.

John pays respect to each and every one of his band members, highlighting their talent not only his.
Faultless performance. This vid should be shown to young musicians everywhere. Great reaction, thank you 😊
Yep you said it WOW
Just look where John holds the mike shows the power of his voice
Yes I agree, John Farnham is the Best Singer in the World! He is the GOAT= Greatest Of All Time!
I also love Angus Burchall, his phenomenal Drummer.
Perfect harmonies. Beautiful.
Best singer the rest of the world never got to have ❤ …. Drummer is ANGUS..also known as Mongrel (johns pet name for him) 😂
They have perfect sound and timing together always blows you away

Torben, thank you for reviewing Angels sung by John and Lisa. Their voices blend so beautifully, and the harmonies are perfect.
It doesn't really get better than that live
I just love this performance - John & Lisa ❤❤❤ The instruments. Love your reaction too,Torben. Our Aussie G.O.A.T. 🎉❤

John's career started in the 1960s. Not the 80s.
Angus is drummer
