Is there anything that doesn't make this song perfect? Great musicians, excellent background singers, incredible bagpipe player, unique song and a John Farnham who sings this song with his heart and soul. The icing on the cake is the vocal audience. It can't be better. This is the song of all decades!
I like this more: ruclips.net/video/X-TPRdzHZDU/видео.html&ab_channel=Gary86 actual one is too... mechanic seems, missing drive. Generaly thats problem of most orchestras... they are great in reading notes, but missing drive in most of cases...Played in one, in few European countries.
This is my sanity song, played as loud as possible as often as possible after my wife died 10 years ago. Still works today! The best choice for a World Anthem
I was born in Scotland and went for a job interview recently....... This song came on just before I arrived at the company's office........i belted it out and walked in 12 ft tall. I start in January ❤️
@LeeH864 oh yeah definatly, ! This song's amazin' I'm tellin' you I have a CD now of john farnham whispering jack now, I listen to it everyday, and his other songs are amazin' too! Like, "age of reason" "Help" (which is emotoinal) and yeah , just amazin'
This song changed My life my grandma would tell you that I sang before I actually spoke due to horrible trauma as a child this track gave me back my voice thank you
John is a showman, he loves performing, hie loves his audiences and his fans, and you can see he loves having them join in with his songs - "it's party time, so let's all party tigether". And the members of the professional orchestras who sometimes play with him just all have a ball. And that voice - what a gift to share with the world. 25.9.23. UK. E❤
I'm an extremely proud WELSHMAN, but I wish this song, would be made the national anthem of Australia, it's bringing tears to my eyes, as I'm listening to it,, ABSOLUTELY AMAZING SONG, SUNG BY AN AMAZING SINGER.
I was there in '88. I just close my eyes and listen to this and I'm transported back to a wonderful era. The 80s was such an incredible era for music, John and everyone in general. Oh God how I miss those times!!
John Farham's family confirms iconic Australian singer is now 'cancer free' and back to singing and dancing 'at home' after a marathon cancer of mouth operation mid year 2023.
Amazing thanks for this info , I can’t help thinking what an even bigger mega star John would have been if he had been a Brit/ American. The Aussies are so lucky to have such a gifted and iconic musician to call their own .
if you read his biography you will find out that he is is a British,born in England on 1st July 1949 and moved to Australia in 1959 when he was 10 years old. The place where he was born is few miles away from where I live. Just check his profile on Wikipedia.🤓

He underwent a lot of voice training after the "pop idol" years in the 60/70's to compliment the increased sophistication of material written for him. This quite is apparent.
@@michellebostock4276 It was well reported in the media and stated by himself on numerous occasions towards the end of his unarguably bleak LRB front man days. He is very intelligent he knew what he had to do. And he has with some aplomb.
One SIR TOM JONES, STARTED BACK IN 66 I THINK COULD BE WRONG STILL GOING STRONG IN HIS 80S, ONE OF THE GREATEST EVER, NOT BAD FOR A TAFF FROM THE VALLEYS. PEACE BE WITH YOU MY FRIEND. 🙏 😎😎😎✌✌✌🏴🏴🏴
Yes. Freddie Mercury level of audience control. You cannot get any better than that. Great. He is for sure under the Top 5 audience control singers ever.
The bag pipes has to be the best bit then the salute just tops it all of.. outstanding!! What a performance! Hard to believe that 30 years have passed since it's release.
We saw this at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre. I still remember the bagpipe player on stage. Truly amazing. We should live by this: "I am the voice." Put an end to tyranny and human suffering
I saw him twice at The Brisbane Entertainment Centre (when 'Whispering Jack' was released) and both concerts were EPIC. What an incredible talent and really nice bloke. ❤
Not just an anthem, not just a protest song - it's a rallying call to the entire world - stop the destruction, be non- confrontational, don't start stupid meaningless wars, learn to live as global citizens in a global world, co-operate with each other make the world a better place for everyone! 28 9.23. UK. E❤
The question then becomes, what should be the response when someone starts a stupid meaningless war? Like... Putin's invasion of Ukraine. There are many looking at each other down the barrel of a gun there. But Ukrainians are defending their homeland. Should they not be doing that? Should Palestinians not be defending themselves from continuing Israeli occupation?

2021.....March 26.....from London on my lunch break! We need to sing this song during this Covid-19 saga just to encourage us again that we, the people need to be heard. Thanks for this beautiful song.
Played on Saturday at the World Freedom Rally in Trafalgar Square. Were you there? Together we are strong. More need to join us so this tyranny can be overthrown once and for all...
I hope John Farnham reads all these comments. I"m commenting again just because I watched it again and I do when I'm down. Just as said below. One of THE most iconic performances ever. Thanks for posting this.
One of the best songs to emerge from the 1980’s. Period. End of story. Though it was released in 1987, it needs to be played a lot these days, I’d say…
John Farnham's Best Friend, and Manager died, suddenly yesterday. Glenn Wheatley, orininally from band "Masrter's Apprenitices"Bass Player. Glenn's passing has shocked us all, esp J Farnham.

Congrats John and I hope your current medical challenges are overcome soon. This guy is a national treasure and should be recognised as such.
There are always iconic moments at any concert, George Michael bringing on Elton John, Queens performance at Live Aid In 85, Phil Collins live version of In The Air Tonight, the way John introduced the piper and his performance, followed by the roar from the audience shows this will always be one of them, fantastic 🇬🇧

After 16 years, I hope to feel the same as you. I cannot stop listening to this song whenever I feel down. It lifts me up and brings back the faith I never knew existed in me! The crowd's energy makes me feel wanted even though I don't know anybody there & will probably never meet them. Goosebumps for me too!! :]
'You're the voice' is living proof that there comes a time when a song ceases to exist as music… and becomes art. I have survived 5 heart attacks and am on medication to keep my heart going. I've had an angioplasty, got a stent and was on many machines. But why have they never linked me to 'You're the voice'? That would have been good for my heart!

This is so special, John is one of a kind, cool and humble, a master of live entertainment. He has been around a long time and is still highly regarded even elsewhere in the world. Huge respect for this man, he earned it !
Perfect moment at 3:14 when the piper salutes John, John salutes the piper and then whisks the mike stand high in the air and catches it in time for the last chorus! Magic!
I visited Australia in 2002. I ended up in a little house in a holidaypark in Bachus Marsch. Noting to do in the evening, so I turned on the TV. John was on and blow me away with this song. Sing every word to this day when I hear it. Good to read he is doing well.

It’s my first time listening to this song !
This could be the anthem of those who are sick to death of senseless mass murders
Being Australian born, with a Scottish heritage, this song will ALWAYS give me goosebumps!! Hella proud!!

Even though he was born in Dagenham, England?
@@slammy102 she was talking about herself, not John Farnham 🙈

But it’s fucking brilliant.

It could be national anthem of each depressed nation.
It sort of is our anthem.
Never tire of this awesome performance of this song. So very apt today!

Dear Lord, this version is far beyond outstanding.
The originial is often the best. Heart did a good cover of it.
One of THE great power ballads of all time and man what a singing voice!
Will never be another like him.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This is an anthem for the human race in these troubled times,stay safe everyone.

I don't know any performer today who could start their career as a teenager and still be going strong in their 70's!
John Farnham is a one of a kind
Well, we do not know yet....
He underwent a lot of voice training after the "pop idol" years in the 60/70's to compliment the increased sophistication of material written for him. This quite is apparent.
Apart from Barbra Streisand, Shirley Bassey and countless others .... who else are are you forgetting

Me!!! Here in Rio de Janeiro, Brasil, sept 25 2024!!!! I DO LOVE HIM AND THIS SONG!!!!!!!!!! I'm 71!!!!!!!!
Fantastic bit of music. They is only one John Farnham
Can't stop watching this. Love the way the bagpiper and Farnham salute each other. Shivers down my spine.
That's the old bagpipe salute of a freind! Excellently done in this piece.
Who was the piper ??
John sings here with such a talent and clarity. With the orchestra backing it's almost like a Broadway stage performance. Truly incredible!
Agreed it's an amazing performance
Such a pure voice.
Totally agree!
Agreed!
this guy sings with his soul, it's amazing
Loved the reaction from the crowd when the bagpipes were played. One of my favourite musical instruments.
and nearly 40 years later they STILL react the same!!!!
I'm Scottish and bagpipes make me react the same way.
Should be played everywhere - every shopping mall - every school - every subway... Never gets old.
Jeder lernt was er denkt
That man was in complete control of everyone in that arena. Tossing and catching the mic stand like a baton...100% command of entertainment.
He’s so amazing on stage live. His concerts are epic and everyone loves him and his music and sings along.
Yes! And completely without “fancy “ American choreography...
Yes. Freddie Mercury level of audience control. You cannot get any better than that. Great. He is for sure under the Top 5 audience control singers ever.
A fan from USA, hes definitely a GOAT! :-)
He's not only an Aussie legend and the best singer in the world, watch him toss the mike stand 3.38 He's brilliant!!!
But he is English
@sharlinew he came to Australia when he was 10 years old. He holds an Australian citizenship so he is Australian.
@@sharlinew and Cliff Richard was born in India so he is by your reasoning Indian.

The bag pipes has to be the best bit then the salute just tops it all of.. outstanding!!
What a performance! Hard to believe that 30 years have passed since it's release.
This song would make the perfect anthem for all women around the world, particularly in America, with what's happening over there at the moment.
I'm Scottish, who thought to bring in the bagpipes, brilliant.
John did.
If only he knew how powerful, how needed this song is …..
He isn’t dead yk?
Unfortunately he's an absolute socialist and doesn't agree with the use of his song for that related to the lyrics.
This song is so powerfull on its own, but backed by an entire symphony orchestra the energy level just becomes amazing.
You took the words right out of my mouth.
what about the piper......
wrong song
Peter ( Piper ) ?
But what a Piper!
We saw this at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre. I still remember the bagpipe player on stage. Truly amazing. We should live by this: "I am the voice." Put an end to tyranny and human suffering
I was there too. He's an awesome performer 😊

One of the best Australian songs ever, and his voice is INSANE
Love this. We all need to be the Voice against what is happening in our world right now
Was fighting in Angola in 86/87 and heard this song. Made me think.
Timeless classic “we’re all someone’s daughter, we’re all someone’s son” powerful lyrics.
Australian rock at its finest!
One of the most underrated power ballads of the 1980s.
Not just an anthem, not just a protest song - it's a rallying call to the entire world - stop the destruction, be non- confrontational, don't start stupid meaningless wars, learn to live as global citizens in a global world, co-operate with each other make the world a better place for everyone! 28 9.23.

Perfect 😍
The question then becomes, what should be the response when someone starts a stupid meaningless war? Like... Putin's invasion of Ukraine. There are many looking at each other down the barrel of a gun there. But Ukrainians are defending their homeland. Should they not be doing that? Should Palestinians not be defending themselves from continuing Israeli occupation?
Not while the USA is in charge .

Oopsie on the math. 26 yrs will still work on me, I'm sure of it!

Gosh, why do so many songs sound so much greater when they're played live? This one is definitely one of those. What an incredible performance!
I saw John in concert in 1996 he really knows how to make the crowd feel special
Absolutely fantastic, the most meaningful song that has ever been produced in Australia to this day
This live performance gives me goosebumps of complete delight!!!!

This is so special, John is one of a kind, cool and humble, a master of live entertainment. He has been around a long time and is still highly regarded even elsewhere in the world. Huge respect for this man, he earned it !
Perfect moment at 3:14 when the piper salutes John, John salutes the piper and then whisks the mike stand high in the air and catches it in time for the last chorus! Magic!
I visited Australia in 2002. I ended up in a little house in a holidaypark in Bachus Marsch. Noting to do in the evening, so I turned on the TV. John was on and blow me away with this song. Sing every word to this day when I hear it. Good to read he is doing well.
Hope you are well and had a lovely time in Oz.
You hold it together, singing alone.. Chest out... Pride blossoming.. Then the Scottish bagpipes kick in... The tears start flowing. ❤
This instead of prayer to start the day in every school!
Not many songs like this will come along in my lifetime . Embrace them when they do.
This song is so real especially for the hero's in Ukraine
I've always wished I'd been born 15 or 20 years earlier so I could have seen him live in concert.
That was my 2024 theme song….
And this right here is one of the best versions ever!!
I am from México, and when I was learning this beautiful language, this song was my inspiration!
One of the best songs ever!
