We,Aussie’s could rattle off any number of johns work and everyone would be perfection . We adore him and send him healing love and prayers on this next massive journey through cancer . If we know John he will do it which grace humility and honour . Much love to him
This is a very tinnie sounding version still great but there are other live versions out there with The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra much better. Worth a look and listen. Keep em coming.👍🇦🇺
Thanks for the awesome reaction, it’s rare to see Farnsey play a musical instrument. He’s such a gentlemen and gives his band and back up vocalists the credit they deserve. You should actually check out the version where John sings this song with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, it’s on another level and if your gonna do you’re the voice also with the Melbourne symphony orchestra. Also check out John and jimmy doing a duet together “when something is wrong with my baby”
Absolutely. The MSO concert version of this song is my favourite performance by John. It's a brilliant concert and there are many videos on RUclips. Get well soon John🙏
Thanks for reacting to John Farnham! I am looking forward to more of Farnham reactions! One of my favourites of his live performances is "Please Don't Ask Me", a duet by John Farnham and Olivia Newton-John.
This was great. Love seeing him play the piano which is a very rare occurrance and probably took his concentration away from his vocal performance a bit. ..watch him perform this same song with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra and be prepared for a whole other level. His career goes right back to the 60's so a bit of a different journey to Jimmy Barnes ...he did a lot of Pop and Pop Rock and Musical stuff back then. Then he was lead singer of the Little River Band for a few years. But the man can literally sing anything from killer Rock songs to the sweetest ballads. R&B Soul, Jazz, Pop, musical theatre, opera, country, comedy ...to full on Anthems. Some great ones ...See the Banners Fall, All our Sons and Daughters, Pressure Down, Burn For You, Chain Reaction, plus covers of Led Zeplins Black Dog and ACDC Long Way to the Top,When Somthing is Wrong with my Baby (with Jimmy Barnes) Just the tip of the iceberg.
Yeah, just meant that it sounds like he might have had that rock era during the 80's early 90's like Jimmy did. Looking forward to hearing more early stuff and the recent stuff as well.
I forgot to mention some things. He was the King of Pop, Jimmy was once the King of Rock in Australia. They and ONJ all came to Australia from England as children. Liv was born first in 1948, John in 1949 and Jimmy in the 50's. Jimmy ended up in Adelaide, my home city, and the other two in Melbourne. Liv and John both worked their career starts from Melbourne's TV studios in the 60's. Surprisingly the one that John was best known for was SADIE THE CLEANING LADY (1967) and it is on youtube: ruclips.net/video/eZeRmpvCjEw/видео.html He was 18 at the time and his first TV appearance. John could have gone onto international stardom but decided to remain in Australia working here. Liv of course went to England and was coerced to move to America and she started with a country and music reputation in Nashville I think. They have remained buddies all along and sadly John has just gone through throat surgery (12 hrs) for cancer and had some of his jaw taken so doubt he will perform ever again. That happened just after his good friend Liv died.
We love this great man so much here in Oz. I have had the privilege of seeing John live many times over the years - he never fails to blow you away. 💕💕
Well, I hope that maybe one day I will get the honor. I've been over there once, to see Kevin Bloody Wilson. Hope to come back and see more of my favorites.
ALL of his concerts are amazing but his Live Concert with the MSO (Melbourne Symphony Orchestra) is a wonderful way to get to know him. I hope that when you do watch YOU'RE THE VOICE it's from that particular show - it's such a massive performance and the crowd participation is electric.
Hi from Australia. He does do a fabulous arrangement of this Beatles classic. I think you'd enjoy the one with the Melbourne Symphony orchestra more. His most popular song was The Voice.
You can't go wrong with John farnham your going to think how is this guy not a superstar around the world he is truly one the finest male vocalists to ever live plus a great performer with a great sense of humour and just humble guy
It's funny how that works. So many amazing artists from Australia that I love that I think should be much bigger stars worldwide. Chris Chaney from The Living End. Billy Falcon. Kevin Bloody Wilson. Darren Hayes. A guy named Blake Saban. Ash Grunwald. Y'all got a ton of talent!
Thanks for this reaction CJ Yes we Aussies will steer you to the best 'live' versions of all his songs lol. Back in the day the video's were rather um how can I say this ..'awful' lol So live is best. He can sing any genre...His concerts with The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra is legendary. one that might get you excited is his performance of an AC/DC classic 'It's a Long Way to the Top' (if ya wanna rock n roll)
@@MusicGodReacts Thanks so much for the reply ❤....There is a mind blowing audio of John & his amazing band doing a soundcheck of Led Zeppelins 'Black Dog' I'd love to see your reaction to that one, John just slays it.. ruclips.net/video/F2Yi6TVi-sU/видео.html
Very Talented Singer Aka " Farnsey ! " Yeah an Old Beatles Song in a Different Arrangement ! Farnsey Does an Awesome Rendition of " Amazing Grace ! " with the Two Back Up Singers Dressed in Red Venetta Field & Lindsay Field if ya feeling Patriotic mate !
It's John's song now!! Great version, most do the MSO version which is iconic and brilliant but so is this one! Do anything by Farnsey....as long as it's live!
Just a tip in the title should have first John Farnham help reaction by the music God. That way the RUclips algorithm is easier to find these music reactions. Appreciate you doing John reaction I’m new subscriber
Pity you chose this one rather than Help with the Melbourne symphony orchestra in comparison this one is good but the one with the Melbourne symphony orchestra just totally blows this one away go have a listen it.
You should see the live version of this with Melbourne symphony orchestra After finishing with plethora of John Farnham music Another Aussie artist to look at johnny diesel he barnes brother inlaw and sings and plays guitar 🎸 Does in one with Jimmy barnes and John Farnham when something wrong with my baby But johnny diesel is also a great solo artist so urge you to have a look at him when get a chance Australia full of brilliant musicians
John Lennon contacted him saying that's how it was supposed to be thank you he told him, Beatles were pop at that time and manager wouldn't let John Lennon do ballads
John and Jimmy sing together. Try When Something Is Wrong With My Baby. I have seen them sing that on two different RUclips video’s with Johnny Diesel who plays guitar and sings at the end with them. Now you just have over 5 decades of John to catch up on. He is our Legend and he is loved. He has one of the worlds best voices that only we knew about. If you are playing John you get a lot of new Aussie subscribers, we come with him. The Beatles may own Help but John taught them how to sing it. You need to watch the best version though with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. John is called the Voice but he also sings You’re The Voice at the same concert. Thank you.
Yep! Can tell you’ve heard of him by the way you pronounced he’s last name. Every American has got it wrong that I’ve heard until now.. Well done sir, I guess you are a music God.
LOL, That's funny considering I usually butcher people's last name. I am a huge fan of Aussie music though, so I hear lots of names, even if I haven't always heard their actual music.
Actually, the name came from a 7th grade music teacher as a joke and it just kind of stuck after that. BUT...I do have a music collection of 2 MILLION + songs across 100+ genres and have been involved in the music business for 35 years now.
Check out When something is wrong with my baby Jimmy Barnes and John Farnham Live.
Anything live by John is great. Great guy with a great voice, very funny and so lovable. He can sing any genre. You will see.
Yeah, listening to a few of the older audio tracks, I really dig it. Definitely going to do more real soon. And also create playlist for them
You may be surprised by his early work. Ten pop idol for the first 10 years....
I don't think anything surprises me anymore. Hell, even Ronnie James Dio started out in a 50's Doo Wop group. LOL
One of the planets great voices !!
We,Aussie’s could rattle off any number of johns work and everyone would be perfection . We adore him and send him healing love and prayers on this next massive journey through cancer . If we know John he will do it which grace humility and honour . Much love to him
Yeah, I read about that today. Such a shame to hear. Pray that he fully heals.
This is a very tinnie sounding version still great but there are other live versions out there with The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra much better. Worth a look and listen. Keep em coming.👍🇦🇺
💯
Yeah, this was just the first random one I picked. Will definitely be exploring lots more with him.

Definitely will. This was just the starting point. Lol

@@MusicGodReacts oh yes he did. He was in his prime during the 80' and 90's. And probably more Rock God than crooner at that point
@@carolynh8866 Freight Train Heart by Jimmy is one of my all time favorite records. Just something about those songs that never get old.
@@MusicGodReacts so true. And I love that album too. Driving Wheels my fav off that album..
@@carolynh8866 I actually am uploading the reaction video for that this exact moment.

Yes please. More Farnham. You will love his duet with Jimmy Barnes, When something is wrong with my baby. The official studio version is legendary.
Yes Please
Hi from Australia. He does do a fabulous arrangement of this Beatles classic. I think you'd enjoy the one with the Melbourne Symphony orchestra more. His most popular song was The Voice.
Better than the original Beatles version.

Sultans of Swing:
Dire Striats.
If yes; cool and John Farnham👍👍👍
From New Zealand ( Dimash & Lara Fabian fan)
You should see the live version of this with Melbourne symphony orchestra
After finishing with plethora of John Farnham music

Does in one with Jimmy barnes and John Farnham when something wrong with my baby
But johnny diesel is also a great solo artist so urge you to have a look at him when get a chance
Australia full of brilliant musicians

Thank you! Have the MSO version on the agenda for later this week. Got a new camera and will be a good way to give it a test run!
this was the Tempo that John Lennon actually wrote this song
Yep! Can tell you’ve heard of him by the way you pronounced he’s last name.
Every American has got it wrong that I’ve heard until now..
Well done sir, I guess you are a music God.
LOL, That's funny considering I usually butcher people's last name. I am a huge fan of Aussie music though, so I hear lots of names, even if I haven't always heard their actual music.
Check out the same song with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra, I believe the whole concert is somewhere on RUclips.
Yep, have that on the agenda for this week.
OMG how can you not know if it’s an original song. It the BEATLES song “Help”
I knew that once I heard it. I wasn't sure before I started if it was a version of that or an original song with that name.
You are the music God and you have never heard him sing? titled yourself a little high?
Actually, the name came from a 7th grade music teacher as a joke and it just kind of stuck after that. BUT...I do have a music collection of 2 MILLION + songs across 100+ genres and have been involved in the music business for 35 years now.
