Just 2 old mates dropping in on each others concerts. Such a treat for those attending thiae concerts back in the day. John is just a master at connecting with his audience's and fans.❤
Love your reaction. We are lucky to have so many high quality videos of John because he was so huge here that every concert tour, one concert was recorded as a television special played later that year. The love for him in Australia is immense and to see the rest of the world begin to embrace him is wonderful. And Jimmy too, who is still performing and recording and being an awesome human.
Barnesy is a genius at switching from lead to backup in an instant. It shows a great respect for the vocalist he is singing any duet with. More importantly, it is time for you to hear Cold Chisel's version of this (Ringside concert) so that you get to appreciate Ian Moss' brilliant voice and the harmonies between him and Jimmy.
@@SoulSessionSundays a recent clipping in an Australian newspaper Superstar John Farnham has sent out a message of thanks to fans a year to the day after he underwent cancer surgery in Melbourne. On August 23, 2022, the 74-year-old singer went through a 12-hour procedure to remove a cancerous tumour from his mouth. It was followed by reconstructive plastic surgery and stints in rehabilitation, including eight weeks of radiation treatment, and further surgeries.
Beautiful reaction as always. I remember watching this on live TV , unfortunately I wasn't actually there. I remember what a special moment it was when Jimmy walked out. I was gob smacked! There is another version of John singing this with his band. Look for When The War Is Over, The Last Time, Melbourne 2003. He seriously blows the roof off the place. Thank you for sharing, D'day from Australia.
Thanks heaps for reacting to these legends. Your right about John Farnham he is such a wonderful man and performer and his personality is contagious. Should check out Cold Chisel singing this song “when the war is over” live Ringside 2003 with Jimmy Barnes and Ian Moss as the two lead singers. Also John sings this solo in 2003 at Melbourne another phenomenal performance
💗💗💗 Nice reaction. I was a bit disappointed though that Jimmy came in that late, was waiting for him all the time from the beginning... Without any doubt John is a great artist and a very nice guy, but vocally for me it's Jimmy's voice which really does it... - anyway, nice performance!
It was lucky that Jimmy came in at all as he was known to be unreliable during his drug-using days. In one video John is looking around to see if he's turning up. Thankfully, Jimmy's children had an intervention on Jimmy and his wife regarding their drug use, which shook them up, and they got off the drugs. There is a video clip of this.
@@barnowl. interesting, didn't know about that - glad he came out of that in time, what a loss it would have been if he had wasted his life on drugs...
Great song and a great reaction, thanks for that. For some context, in the original song by Cold Chisel, Jimmy Barnes sings the second verse as he does here, and Ian Moss (lead guitarist and a great singer in his own right) sings the verses that John sings here. You should definitely check out the Cold Chisel version from their concert in 2003 to compare an older version of Jimmy and a more acoustic version of this song - ruclips.net/video/x4Wwq9_zn_c/видео.html. You won't regret it.
I've had the pleasure of singing with John. What you're depicting is totally accurate. He's one of those humans, you can't help but love. Ps. Loving your reaction. You've got me wellin' up too haha.
I love your reactions. Please check out the wonderful a capella cover version by John Farnham, his singers and band members of Stevie Wonder's, 'Love's In Need,' during a live concert. It is sooo heartfeltly, gorgeously beautiful !!!
Check out John farnham singing the same song solo from a live show called the last time, its from 2003. I perfer that version more. It really shows his vocal range to the limit.
Have you seen the last upload to Putri Arianis RUclips Channel where she honored her favorite Singer Whitney Houston with a live Performance of her Song ** I Will Always Love You ** ( check it out it was Pure Magic )
Jimmy had a massive week by the sound of it. His voice is pretty shot here and apparently he neglected to warm his voice up in the earlier days. I'm pretty sure every other performance I've heard of this is a fair bit better. Hopefully people can recommend the better performances with an actual link to it going forward..
This is the worst performance of this song on RUclips. Jimmy absolutely butchers his part. The Cold Chisel ringside concert is the definitive performance of this song. John’s solo effort is great, but as good as he is, he doesn’t quite match that one.
Agreed but still great and fun. Ringside 2003 is the best Chisels version of this song and don't remember the date but John's best for this song is the one when he is in his Fifties, probably the last time tour but I could be wrong and too lazy to check 😂
Jimmys pretty smashed here, he’s probably had a few too many vodkas no doubt but it doesn’t matter it’s two Aussie greats having fun and entertaining the crowd and we love it! they sing very well together and have respect for each others abilities.
I understand that Jimmy was a last minute addition to this song, as he happened to be there. He didn't have a warm up, just went in there cold. He has admitted that it was nowhere near his best performance, but when John asked him to, he did. No matter, I love this version, the chemistry between the two is blatant.
Not one of Jimmy’s best performances. Looks like they dragged him away from his mates at the bar, threw him in the shower, then borrowed a clean pair of pants for him and pushed him towards the stage..........lol
@@SoulSessionSundays Jimmy had serous issues with booze and other drugs. In another clip John is looking around for him to see if he'll turn up. Jimmy finally got himself cleaned up when his children called an intervention on him and his wife/their mother. That is revealed on a interview video.
@@SoulSessionSundays I understand the mixed reviews. Jimmy is not only human, he is also a very rough diamond. Sometimes Jimmy loses his way and for a period, he constantly tried to sing TOO loud and with TOO much gravel crunching attitude. He actually has a very sweet natural voice for rock, soul and probably jazz..... the gravel is voice control and NOT natural. His biggest fans think he is GOD and are oblivious to the truth and reality. lol
I can confirm that seeing John perform live, was a life altering experience. He honestly made you want to be a better person. ❤
Just 2 old mates dropping in on each others concerts. Such a treat for those attending thiae concerts back in the day.
John is just a master at connecting with his audience's and fans.❤
John Farnham's carisma on stage is second to none, that's for sure 🙂 And a wonderful voice! Him and Jimmy is dynamite 😉
👍👍👍

We sure are ! ❤️❤️
Hearing John doing this reminds me of his CD " I Remember when I was young" in which is all covers of Aussie classics
Did you hear that note that John sang off camera at 7:52? SUPERB

Jimmy Barnes is just amazing. Still is. His late 80s album "Freight Train Heart" is absolutely great 🙂 Thanks for a lovely reaction, Adrianna!
Thanks for the suggestion! Don't know that album, is it on spotify? Will give it a listen for sure! Have a great evening and enjoy it buddy!
Thank you so much. Awesome reaction! 2 of our best ever! Luv from Australia ❤️🎼❤️🎼❤️
Haha 2 legends being legendary! Love the obvious respect and love they have towards each other and the fun they were having.
Luv ur reaction to our legendary Aussie singers... Jimmy Barnes & John Farnham...John is currently unwell
Oh no! Well I hope he gets better soon 🩵🙏🏽

John is fully recovered now and singing around the house so his son, Robert, reports.@@SoulSessionSundays

Jimmy started singing the minute John stopped, even though he was off camera. His voice is unmistakable.
They are both PHENOMENAL! It just depends on what type of voice you prefer!

Yes yes yes
Yes yes yes
Came to comments to recommend this but you did it for me, thanks
Like others are saying gotta react 2 Cold Chisel when the war is over ringside 2003.
Thank you for reacting to this duo! Enjoyed your reaction!

Awww bless you sending you big hugs! I can’t even begin to imagine how amazing that experience was! 🩵😆
Thank you! 🩵
I presume you have reacted to when something is wrong with my baby Jimmy and John always go live I think the hey hey it’s sat is the best version

At 7:51 John sings "steal my heart", he is off camera at the time. It is exquisite.
I recommend you react to "In Days To Come" and "Amazing Grace" with Vanetta Fields.
She did “amazing grace” recently
Loving how you always feel the song ❤️🔥 Please react to “Under The Moon” by Alex Isley 😭❤️🔥
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️
❤❤❤🎉🎉 amo suas reações gostaria que você reagisse ao brasileiro Gabriel Henrique ele ganhou ouro agt americano
Check out John’s version of its a long way to the top with the Melbourne symphony orchestra he really rocks❤
Have you seen the last upload to Putri Arianis RUclips Channel where she honored her favorite Singer Whitney Houston with a live Performance of her Song ** I Will Always Love You ** ( check it out it was Pure Magic )
There’s more
Wonder how their voices felt after bashing out this song.
Do maoli wanted cover
