He has one of the most beautiful voices in world. He can sing anything and make it sound heavenly. And he still delivers amazing vocals to this day at the age of 71.
The unparalleled best rock/pop tenor on this planet ever. Flawless and raw at the same time. When he belts out those extremely high and "raspy" notes, it is still so effortlessly spot on pitch that it is almost unbelivable. And such a jovial, humble, funny, nice, charming and charismatic guy at the same time. The Americans may never have really discovered this jewel, but the rest of the world has certainly always loved and admired him.
My daughter won a singing contest with this song. I didn’t know it was his until she was on stage and said so. He is loved and will always be our legend.
I was 15 years old when this played live on TV, and I can still remember it... I went out and bought the piano sheet music to this song and learnt how to play it!
Saw Paul G play with Paul Kelly last July; just the two of them, one voice one accompanying instrument ( only a couple with guitar). The “ two Pauls”. If they ever team up again to do a tour go see them; intimate songs, beautiful piano accompaniment , warm informal connection & chat with the audience. An extraordinary evening of entertainment. I would equally have gone see Paul G & John F play as a duo if ever that had happened.
Of course John is genius like always and Paul Grabowsky's accompaniment was just brilliant considering it was unrehearsed (?). Get you a jazz pianist if you're gonna wing it!

Yes
How cool is this guy!!! No-one does a mullet like John - so handsome and a really down to earth beautiful human x
Only few artists can sing live as good as Mr. Farnham. A true legend. The pianist also gave an equally outstanding performance. Bravo!!
One of Australia's most famous Jazz Musicians - Paul Govoscy [however it is spelt]
Paul Grabowsky is the pianist. A famous Australian jazz pianist.
John Farnham has the most naturally brilliant voice ever. Any time, any day he can open his mouth and that voice comes out.
He has it all..Beautiful voice, beautiful face and a lovely personality..Get well John 🌹🌺
Only if John Farnham and Karen Carpenter could have done a duet together.
Amazing singing those high notes without a warm up.
Great singer
My daughter won a singing contest with this song. I didn’t know it was his until she was on stage and said so. He is loved and will always be our legend.
The 20% line was great and went straight over the audience’s heads...
do you really think it was over their heads?
I have always loved his voice, who would of guessed the hair makes a come back? 2021?
Just incredible. How lucky are we to call him ours. Get well John ❤
He's so down to earth and funny how can we not love him ❤😁💪

Love John Farnham he is incredible 🖤💙
Ok seems to me this truely was a musical accomplishment. The piano merely following the singer
That's the greatest mullet ever!
Onya Jack, oi👍
Stellar vocals, and I'd forgotten what a great pianist Paul was. terrific stuff.

Love this guy, so humble!❤️
He sure is!
I'm turning 51, and his song always brings tears to my eyes. This song, "Please Don't Ask Me," has a strong sense of nostalgia.
One of the best Love Song ever.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written
Written by the very talented Graeham Goble of LRB.
Yes, an all round Aussie creation: GG & JF = 💖
Powerful vocals 👌🏼
Hahaha 🤣 John Wheatley….his manager….wakes up 20% later than him…..hahahaha hahahaha I’m on the floor…..he’s a bloody legend….hahahaha
His manager's name is Glenn Wheatley (RIP)

My Heart melted..💗
So grandios voice!!!!!
Brilliant. You can’t outplay The Farnham, Paul
One of my favourite songs from Full House. Unrequited love sung at its best.
My teen and years to seniors have been highlighled by John's carisma. My most happy placr. Maths homework at rehercial Carols by Candle Light
Best eye lids ever! beautiful from top to toe xx
Of course John is genius like always and Paul Grabowsky's accompaniment was just brilliant considering it was unrehearsed (?). Get you a jazz pianist if you're gonna wing it!
Great stuff!
Another Graeham Goble masterpiece.
Great interview so laid back. Bring back the 80s style loved it.
Legend
When John still could've hit the top note. Perfect.
To be fair, it’s a D above a Tenor high C - absolute bastard of note to sing! (D5)
The one and only of course. His humor and that voice....There is no other. ❤
Grabovsky and Farnham...what a performance
Wow! And with sore ribs!
Comparable..is there any one...
No...not by a mile
And all that with out a warm up
Amazing music from just 2😉
I watched the version with Geoff Harvey but this knocked that one out of the park.
The captions are hilarious;
‘That we could ever be balling Fred’
Lol
Just insane!!!
Ohhh Sooooo Good... Thankyou 😊
What an amazing gentleman .
30yrs ago..wow
Brilliant
❤
It's a shame Farnham doesn't still have this hairstyle.
He is so gorgeous. If only. I met him once upon a time. Long long time.
😍😍❤️❤️
Pure talent.
💜💜💜💜💜
