It's honestly amazing that this guy is actually still alive, and hasn't completely blown out his voice. There was a long stretch where he was knocking back 10 grams of coke and 3 bottles of vodka a day, after a childhood filled with alcoholism and sexual abuse. He's a testament to perseverance and, frankly, good luck. (teez I know I said do my list in any order, but there's a Cold Chisel song on there, chuck that one up next :))
Don't give up on Jimmy. Most of your viewers are probably American, and Australia IS watching you. Check out Cold Chisel, Jimmy's band, before he went solo. Cheers Australia x
Mmm, love Jimmy. Not only incredibly talented, but a genuinely nice bloke who will stand up for others. And who won’t put up with racists- for some reason racist Aussies live his music, especially Working Class Man. In addition to sending a Cease and Desist, he just blasted them publicly, it was quite a sight to see. Fantastic. My favourite of his solo songs is Lay Down Your Guns, and my favourite Cold Chisel song is Choir Girl. You just can’t go wrong. And now you’ve started down the rabbit hole of Aussie rock, you need to check out The Angels- Shadow Boxer, Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again? (You MUST watch a live version of that one! The studio version is missing something very important to why that song is so entrenched in Aussie pop culture), No Secrets, Take A Long Line, and We Gotta Get Out of This Place. For starters. Then maybe some Skyhooks? Midnight Oil?
Male Aussie vocals are so vast and wide ranging, the world is now just learning what we have known for all our lives. The women are right up there with the guys as well. Jimmy Barnes, Ian Moss, John Farnham, Daryl Braithwaite, Jon Steven's, Ross Wilson, Bon Scott, Graham "Shirley" Stauhan, John Paul Young, Doc Neeson, Dave Gleeson, Michael Hutchence, Iva Davies, Neil & Tim Finn, William Shakesphere, John Williamson, Stevie Wright, Ted Mulry, Richard Clapton, Peter Garrett, Steve Gilpin, Tommy Emmanuel, Greedy Smith, Martin Plaza, Angry Anderson, Steve Gilbey, Jo Jo Zep, Barry, Robin & Maurice Gibb, Andy Gibb, and the list just goes on and on
Great review one of my favourite Jimmy songs. Going to see Jimmy on 23rd July can't wait, hope he sings that, he has most times I've seen him. First concert since lockdown.
I find it hilarious, origins of rock and roll, metal have deep roots black American music. All rock and roll greats mimicked all black American music as teenagers
Jimmy and the Cold Chisel rabbit hole - 'Flame Trees' and 'When the War is Over' are my favourite of their songs. Great live band.
Old school Barnsey and Cold Chisel takes me straight back to what it felt like to be Australian back in the 70s and 80s.
I've had a beer with Jimmy. Most Laid Back bloke I know and will speak up for the minority when necessary. He's a South Australian Icon.
I'd say he's an Australian icon, The GOAT !!!!!
The singer doing back up vocals on the song is Kim Carnes " Betty Davis Eyes"
Dinged dinged song dinged song, we have a winner. Yes it was Kim Carnes who is accredited and did some of the backing vocals to this song
Barnsey! Enuff said! Legend!
He is one of the greatest love his voice

Great song.Jimmy and his band cold chisel are so good
I only know him from his work with Tina Turner, but he's got a great rock 'n roll voice!
He got "that " Voice ! 🔥Go Jimmy !
HI TEEZ💜 wow !! GREAT voice !! Jimmy Barnes...new to me. 🔥 Ty
For this one!! 💜💜🌷💜
💜💜💜💜🔥
As an Aussie who basically grew up listening to Jimmy,I'd say please check out cold chisel
Have a look at John Farnham “you’re the voice” another Aussie legend. Also John and Jimmy “when something is wrong with my baby” epic!😁🇦🇺🦘🐨
The 2 biggest hits are "driving wheels " truckies, "working class man" ,his cold chisel days are huge and his blues album
Don't give up on Jimmy.

Jimmy Was asked Twice to join Van Halen, turned them down.
Its not screaming bruh, its his range!! Hes full on. Hes popular coz hes da s#it!!. Peace ..🔥🇦🇺👍
He gives me John Cougar vibes
Definitely. Both sing about working people and there is something similar in their style.
He'd blow out your eardrums just saying g'day.
My favourite Jimmy Barnes song, thanks bro for sharing 💯
