John lennon said that this was how it should have been sung and it's the best version he'd heard . I know it's controversial Elvis will allways be the king but on his best day he couldn't sing as good as . John Farnham
He’s one of the best in the world. Proud Aussie moment here. Not only is he an amazing vocalist but he’s funny, jokes around, so down to earth and so humble. If he is ever performing with someone else he gladly stands back and let’s them have their moment. I love him and have for decades. He sings in his chest only and his range is amazing plus he sings with emotion and passion. Just a bloody great country bloke and looks very sexy on a horse bearding cattle lol.
John was actually born in the UK but his family emigrated to Australia when he was about 10 years old. At 18 years old he became famous after singing ‘Sadie The Cleaning Lady’ on tv and it made number one on the charts. Throughout his whole career to date, John has maintained a great rapport with his audience and respect for everyone. Beautiful soul.
Also have to note, this was the finale number of this concert. By now, you’ve seen how John commits vocally and physically in every number. That he’s able to put out this virtuoso vocal show after all that.... Legend.
You genuinely can’t go wrong with John, but his live performances are always something extra. No one has performance quality and audience connection quite like Farnsey.
You have now discovered what we have long been blessed with here in Australia - one of the greatest to ever grace the stage. At his live performances he manages to hold each member of the audience in the palm of his hand and you are right there up on stage with him, feeling the energy, the passion and the warmth. Now 72, we don’t know if we will ever hear him live again. I hope so, but if not, I am so glad other parts of the world are discovering him and I will cherish each time I have heard him sing.
Apparently John Lennon commented that this was the way he wanted this song to be performed. No, you are not wrong he is one of the nicest guys in the business. Freddy Mercury loved his voice & so did Tom Jones, Ray Charles & many others.
still to this day and hes now in his70s he is still called the voice, i think he would have to be one of the greatest voices ever... im sure if he suggested to throw a concert today it would be sold out in minutes....thats how much us australians love him.....
You are right about John, he is a genuinely lovely guy, very well respected and loved withinthe music industry as well as by his fans. He is also a great Beatles fan and always finishes his concerts with a Beatles song. He sings from his heart and soul with love, for music and his fans. I watched his very first appearance on tv in the early 70's and have been a fan ever since. I am so happy that he brings you joy, and i am sure he would be too.
This is great. But if you Really would like to see his voice range you have to react to him singing when the war is over from a live show called the last time, its from 2003. One of the best live performence ive ever heard in my life.
Thanks for the reaction mate greatly appreciated it was awesome. John Farnham is the voice and he is a true entertainer and gentleman and the energy he brings to the crowd is second to none. He is the complete package and so down to earth he’s never sung a bad note in his life. In his early days he also sang for another famous group “little river band” check out reminiscing it’s awesome
You only have to watch Coldplay and John Farnham live at sound relief, when John enters the whole crowd lifts to another level. His so respected not only for his amazing voice, but for being such a wonderful down to earth person, like you said a true gentleman.
Him doing Angels live is amazing. I've never, ever heard a bad word spoken about this man. I'm not even remotely surprised that you feel like you do about him.
John Lennon said this was the way he would have liked The Beatles to have recorded the song, a slow ballad version instead of the way they finished up recording it, faster. Tina Turner and Celine Dion both love this version so much they recorded it...........
He can still flat out sing and he's in his 70's check out him, Queen's Brian May, Olivia Newton-John and Mitch Tambo from last years Firefight Benefit concert - I've put a link to it from Queen's site ruclips.net/video/lqjNWuM2z-Q/видео.html
Thanks for the shout out 😊 great reaction. John has quite the catalogue of songs and the best pipes in the business as far as I'm concerned! Never falters 💞
You react to John and I sub ! His live performances are always better than studio ones. - always . I also recommend very highly his version of When the War is Over - The Last Time concert. Knock your socks off thst will - if you haven’t already reacted to it of course.
It shows how music lifts us up! All these people love this song and make him proud by singing for him!!!! Hope you are doing well sweetheart! Stay safe!!
John first performed this version of Help in the early 70's, and upon hearing this John Lennon was supposedly to have stated "That this is how the song was meant to be sung".
John Lennon rang him a year before he was killed and told farnham that was how it was supposed to be excellent, the Beatles manager and record people said keep it fast pop he loved the version John farnham did they laughter together as John Lennon said you made me jealous loved your version
It's lovely to watch an extraordinary performer being watched by a lovely, appreciative person! If you get a chance, watch John Farnham, Cate Ceberano and John Stevens performing Everything's Alright, studio version, from Jesus Christ Superstar, sublime 🧡

No aussie would ever be surprised to hear someone refer to Farnham as one of the worlds great singers. We've always known.
💯
We feel a bit smug having Farnsie don't we.
Yep. You are right.
I realize it's kinda off topic but do anyone know a good website to stream newly released series online?

Maybe hearding .. but yep..😊
Live. Last song of his concert. Singing his heart out to thousands of people, hitting all those notes. Yes. We love him.
And yet I feel like the studio version goes up at least 2 octaves. Feels like something's missing

Johns rendition always gives me goosebumps no matter how many times hear it
Looks like a rock star sounds like a rock star IS A ROCK STAR!
Agreed and the nicest, loveliest, funniest , humblest, generous rock star ever .
John Lennon told John that he really enjoyed this cover, and it was exactly how he originally thought his song should be sung.
You have now discovered what we have long been blessed with here in Australia - one of the greatest to ever grace the stage.

And he doesn't need the mike close to his mouth. Total power
still to this day and hes now in his70s he is still called the voice, i think he would have to be one of the greatest voices ever... im sure if he suggested to throw a concert today it would be sold out in minutes....thats how much us australians love him.....
Have been to many of johns concerts they were the best,he is 72 years old now but still can sing.,he is our Aussie legend.
You will not meet a nicer down to earth guy.
Elvis was wonderful but John is so much more.
You are right about John, he is a genuinely lovely guy, very well respected and loved withinthe music industry as well as by his fans.

A john Farnham concert has always been like a communion of souls to me.........you leave feeling enlightened and deeply joyful
This is great. But if you Really would like to see his voice range you have to react to him singing when the war is over from a live show called the last time, its from 2003. One of the best live performence ive ever heard in my life.
Actually john lennon made his comment: "Thats how the song should have been " That's says it all..dontcha think.??
I thought it was McCartney?
@@clairash2004 6 months to hear it, it was lennon

Now that's one way to improve a Beatles song. Farnsey live is always value for your time.
Unsurpassed singing......flawless sax....
Him doing Angels live is amazing.
I've never, ever heard a bad word spoken about this man.
I'm not even remotely surprised that you feel like you do about him.
One difference between Farnham and Elvis,I've never heard Farnham sing a bad note live.
Me neither!!!!!!!!!!!!! You don't suppose he's a robot do you?
Rick Andersen he’s an alien
unless he does it deliberately ;)
I agree. He is among the Greats. Pure Talent.
You picked it in one he is a genuine
friendly and down to earth. No ego .
Simply stunning vocal display from the great John Farnham… 👌💯😎
Your The Voice at this concert is well worth watching too
I agree, that performance is one of the greatest live performances ever.
JF singing ‘You’re the Voice’. with Coldplay at the Sydney Cricket Ground in front of 150,000 is pretty amazing .

❤❤ this is the best proformance of Help.
Thanks for the shout out 😊 great reaction. John has quite the catalogue of songs and the best pipes in the business as far as I'm concerned! Never falters 💞
John gets people to feel. His voice stays in your memory.. I’ve seen John live 5 times...wish it was more
Thank you for your respectful listening and your generous response.
Love the man to bits.
You react to John and I sub ! His live performances are always better than studio ones. - always .
I also recommend very highly his version of When the War is Over - The Last Time concert. Knock your socks off thst will - if you haven’t already reacted to it of course.
The WORLD calls him "The Voice"
Lennon LOVED this version. This is apparently how he wanted the song to sound originally.
Would love a link to this statement. It was released in the same year Lennon died so I really hoped he did hear it.
I thought it was McCartney that said that. Sorry, not trying to be a smart ass.
@@kathytrembath5748 John Farnham released his version of Help in July 1980. John Lennon died late December 1980.
Yes it was Paul who said that.
Should have been a world famous singer, one of the best
What are we the marfia. Flippin heck we've done well today!!!! Lots of reactions to the Voice to drool over!!!
And to think he also smoked and still had that voice
It shows how music lifts us up! All these people love this song and make him proud by singing for him!!!! Hope you are doing well sweetheart! Stay safe!!
Thank you so much ❤️
John first performed this version of Help in the early 70's, and upon hearing this John Lennon was supposedly to have stated "That this is how the song was meant to be sung".
Well spoken and true words.
Playing to win, is great
John Lennon rang him a year before he was killed and told farnham that was how it was supposed to be excellent, the Beatles manager and record people said keep it fast pop he loved the version John farnham did they laughter together as John Lennon said you made me jealous loved your version
I've heard John Lennon liked this version, and he wanted it slow when the Beatles first sang it, but the producer's wanted it at a faster pace.
Top work mate.
It's lovely to watch an extraordinary performer being watched by a lovely, appreciative person! If you get a chance, watch John Farnham, Cate Ceberano and John Stevens performing Everything's Alright, studio version, from Jesus Christ Superstar, sublime 🧡
How blessed are we with brilliant singers/performers in Australia? And the list just goes on and on; like I said, blessed.
@@Mirrorgirl492 absolutely positively agree😀😀😀
Your dam right man
Kane, Paul...hi!
Good on you George!!!
Great review!
Good Call
Elvis wished he could sing like John
Apparently, John and Paul liked Farnham’s version better.
You should listen to him with Anthony Warlow (from Phantom of the Opera)
you should check out his performance of led zepplins black dog
John Lennon liked Johns version more than the Beatles!
better than the beatles version
watch 25th jimmy barnes.
You can't rate John as there is no score high enough!!
Don 't pronounce the H...John Farnam
Don't pronounce the H so FARNUM
