John Farnham gives a masterclass in all his shows how to engage and entertain his fans and connect with people and have such an awesome experience being part of the show. Better back then no mobile phones to distract you and you could enjoy shows more and be in the moment not watching through a phone atmospheres were much better then as they had your full attention.
Thank you for reacting to John Farnham. I'm lucky enough to see him in concert many times. His concerts are amazing. A fantastic experience every single time. This particular concert with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra was just spectacular. Yes sutpendous !! We are so proud of him here in Australia.
Great reaction once again guys to the GOAT. The man is amazing and has recovered well and is now cancer free and the family has just celebrated the marriage of John's oldest son Robert. Also Suzie, love the new look hair and makeup and you look gorgeous!!
STUPENDOUS! > Everything stupendous > John, band, orchestra, sound, performance, concert hall, song... > you two and your reactions! Rock on! Greetings from Germany, Rock'n'Ralf 🤘😎
Haha oh ye of little faith. This man just does do whatever he wants. The same concert with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra that your review of ‘Help’ came from, from memory. I just remember this as a celebration; a party.
This is the best Live concert that covers all John Farnham’s song performances. He is wearing the white shirt, so you can identify any other clips of this concert by that. It is the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra in 1989, more than 30 years ago.
Now that's how you put on a Rock Concert. The most versatile singer in the world, the ultimate showman, a totally top notch band, an excited and adoring audience and a symphony orchestra to top it all off. GREAT reaction you guys. And don't you worry, there is plenty more up John Farnhams sleeve for you to discover. ❤❤❤❤❤
Firstly let me say "I love you Tanya" lol I can't stop grinning as I watch this and the entire band and orchestra just having a blast of fun. John is the ultimate entertainer ..... so blessed to have all this footage of his epic performances. Now I'm going to watch it again...lol
That's a John Farnham concert. Night after night he does that. Wonderful musicians and weren't they having a ball? Fabulous. Please bear in mind that was the END of the concert, too. John gives everything. We love him.
Thank you , great reaction, Last song of the night but John, Band & Orchestra still giving their all, - same song but different concert, (Brisbane 88 Expo) John on guitar- this is serious Rock and Roll.... worth watching... again it was the last song, watch to the end for the short interview outside...
It's even more awesome when you are in the audience!!!! John is an incredible singer, performer, and musician. I am so glad to be an Aussie and witnessed every concert this man performed. I am very proud of everything John achieved. Agree, epic and stupendous. Enjoyed your reaction ❤
And that my friends is how it’s done!! no other male singer other than Freddy Mercury himself knows how to entertain and own the crowd like John does he phenomenal in any genre. 🧐😊👍🇦🇺
Hi Susie and Travis I can’t remember how many John Farnham concerts I have been to over the years ,they were all amazing in their own way. You certainly never went to one to sit down , it was all about the music dancing and having a good laugh . Always went home happy a sore throat from singing along and exhausted from dancing all night … bloody fantastic ❤
There's no such thing as "just another day in the John Farnham world". Every note he sings is a joy to listen to. Doesn't matter what the genre of the song is, he's always pure gold. And his backing singers and band - all long time personal friends - are also pure gold - it really is worth looking up the musical backgrounds of each and every one of them . Apr'24. UK. E ❤
Just came back to watch your reaction again. Awesome job both of you. Stupendous, in fact. 😂Everyone was obviously having a blast - John, the band, the orchestra, the conductor, the crowd, and now everyone who gets to watch the video. What an encore song.
There have been so many amazing live performances by various artists around the world, and while they may equal, not one of them beats this one. Every song on this tour was EPIC and yes, stupendous!!
The backup singer who had the "great look" is Lisa Edwards and you have reacted to her and John doing "Lifted Up by Angels" as a duet. His other two long-time backup singers do a great version of "Amazing Grace" with him.
I was in the audience that night one of the greatest concerts I have seen ...and I have seen my fair share and more..Farnham Rocks. Check out his covers of Black Dog and We will Rock You..they are 1st class..
Its a great live experience. He doesn't normally tour with an orchestra, but for that filmed performance he reworked some of his arrangements. I personally loved the studio version with his usual rock band -but all versions of this song have o bring high energy regardless.
Yes our John can do anything you should hear him do Led Zeppelin's 'Black Dog' only audio i'm afraid as it was only done as a sound check, fortunately the Sound Tech recorded it, it is Awesome!
Fantastic Review . I’ve watched this so many times. Aussies sing - ‘It’s a long way to the top if you want a sausage roll’ lol. Melbourne Symphony Orchestra and Conductor Dobbs Franks had a ball. Great to see a symphony orchestra having so much fun😊
That's what you call a standing novation 😂😂😂😂😊👍🇭🇲🦘😆😆😆😆😆😆😆👍great reaction again guys I asked you about 8 months to check this vid out but you see it now worth the watch for sure. Keep up the great reaction 👍😊🇭🇲🦘
Yep Travis and Susie, Aussies love their music, even orchestral gigsters... so much to choose from. Yummy! Cheers from Sydney, AU. P.S. and that was after 2.5 hours on stage, a nice little encore.
Many, many thanks to Tanya! Have been hoping some one else would react to this banger! Farnham and the guys giving their all. Right up there with the AC DC version!
yeah top tier perfrmance frm everyone, , place was buzn, johns vocals r so versatile, wasnt sure bout vis a few yrs ago n ven heard it n rite away i said yes!
Another song worth listening to is John's rendition of Led Zep's Black Dog. It will not disappoint. It was recorded by his sound engineer during a Sound Check. Awesome
I love AC/DC but this is so much better. John is the greatest male vocalist of all time, he can sing anything, any genre and has sung in most genres. This was I think the 3rd encore after a 21/2 hour concert and everyone still has so much energy, especially John and everyone, including the orchestra conductor is having an absolute ball.
Hey I just saw your reaction to Tina singing Led Zeppelin. That song was done by John is band as well. Wow ! If only he and Tina sung together it would've been awesome. I know they know each other very well.
Because of John's 1st chart hit "Sadie the cleaning lady ", American record labels thought and said "This guy can't be a real singer, we're not going to give him the time of day" And that is why America did not get to hear John
Out of respect for Bon Scott, he doesn't use bagpipes in this song, hence the keyboard, even though they had a piper at the concert for Your the Voice song. I love his respect for Bon. ❤❤
JF is the goat. You guys need to listen to his back catalogue. Some would argue the best voice ever to come out of the land down under. Jimmy Barnes a very close second
I have been to many Farnsie concerts including this one with the Melb Symphony Orch, not necessarily the one that was video recorded. John Farnham while a great artist on record, CD or whatever is far better as a live performer. What you heard with Long Way To The Top was done after a 2 or 3 hour long concert and everyone still had the same energy as they had at the beginning. As far as Australia goes, Farnsie was the Swiftie of the 80's and 90's and to some extent, still is. If you want to see John Farnham's range, check out The Main Event with Olivia Newton-John and Anthony Warlow, it's on the same level as his concert with the MSO. I worked at a community radio station with the minister that officiated at John and Jill's wedding, he sent a heart felt letter to us on the ministers passing.
Queen asked him to join them after Freddie died but he said no. There is a release of him and Queen doing "we will rock you" that is rather good. You can also find him singing with Tom Jones, Ray Charles and Celine Dion

We all know; "It's a long way to the shop if you want a sausage roll."
That's the only way I sing it in my head 😂😂
And all Sydneysiders used to sing "It's a long way to the Cross if you want to fuck a moll".
😂 absolutely!
There’s a few x rated versions lol
It’s how we build this city.

To put it mildly.
Great reaction once again guys to the GOAT. The man is amazing and has recovered well and is now cancer free and the family has just celebrated the marriage of John's oldest son Robert.
Also Suzie, love the new look hair and makeup and you look gorgeous!!
It is a long way to the shop if ya wanna sausages roll.😂
I had that going through my head the whole time!
Said every Aussie of a certain age 😂😂
@@divinemadness7119And that age is every age
Every time, John did this Bon Scott himself, Rose out of his grave and saluted.
He is the GOAT..PROUD TO BE AN AUSSIE.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
100%! 👍
ACADACA, as we call them, and Farnham are friends. So it's no surprise to us to see him do one of their songs.
This is so AWSOME!!!!!! Leave it to John Farnham to go far and above!!!!!!
STUPENDOUS! > Everything stupendous > John, band, orchestra, sound, performance, concert hall, song... > you two and your reactions! Rock on! Greetings from Germany, Rock'n'Ralf 🤘😎
And then, after THIS, he comes back to sing 'Help'. John Farnham has had more epic, stupendous, stand-out performances than I've had hot dinners.
Only Joe Cocker and John get the full support of the Beatles. 🐐
Haha oh ye of little faith. This man just does do whatever he wants. The same concert with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra that your review of ‘Help’ came from, from memory. I just remember this as a celebration; a party.

❤❤❤❤❤
I'm taken back to that night every time I see it. Being a part of that crowd was so awesome!
I'm green with envy !!
John is called the "G.O.A.T." for a reason. Best of all time. He's called "The Voice" for a reason.
Firstly let me say "I love you Tanya" lol I can't stop grinning as I watch this and the entire band and orchestra just having a blast of fun. John is the ultimate entertainer ..... so blessed to have all this footage of his epic performances. Now I'm going to watch it again...lol
Haha. I went for a second round too. ❤❤

Awesome is the right word. Never went to any of John’s concerts without wishing it would never end. Never disappointed the man is superior
YEEHA! They are all having sooooooo much fun! Smiling on this video can’t be helped. John and the musos sounding on top of their game. ❤🎼🎶🎵
Its a long way to the shop if you want a sausage roll.
BRING BACK REAL LIVE MUSIC, LIVE BANDS AND TRUE VOCALISTS PLEEEAAASSSEEE❤❤ John Farnham and his performances are the G.O.A.T.s 🎉🎉🎉😂😂😂
WOW ❤
And that my friends is how it’s done!! no other male singer other than Freddy Mercury himself knows how to entertain and own the crowd like John does he phenomenal in any genre. 🧐😊👍🇦🇺
My home town. John can do absolutely any genre!
That song was the final song of the concert after 2.5hrs of performing!
Hi Susie and Travis I can’t remember how many John Farnham concerts I have been to over the years ,they were all amazing in their own way.
You certainly never went to one to sit down , it was all about the music dancing and having a good laugh . Always went home happy a sore throat from singing along and exhausted from dancing all night … bloody fantastic ❤
This is the second song in his second encore.😮

My first thought was oh no, then I started watching - omg everyone was feeling the meaning of this song, the commitment! EPIC! 👍🙋💕
There have been so many amazing live performances by various artists around the world, and while they may equal, not one of them beats this one. Every song on this tour was EPIC and yes, stupendous!!
Bloody oath!! 😊🇦🇺
This is so fun. John Farnham, with the best, and most pure voice, singing his mates rough 0:29 song , this cannot be more Australian
This is an AC/DC classic and JF makes it his own! Amazing!!! Love John, love bagpipes and the MSO - Aussie legends. So proud. 🇦🇺♥️🦘🐨
Farnham takes the stage, Elvis walks off with his tail between his legs and says I can't top that.
😅😅👌
The backup singer who had the "great look" is Lisa Edwards and you have reacted to her and John doing "Lifted Up by Angels" as a duet. His other two long-time backup singers do a great version of "Amazing Grace" with him.
John Farnham our boy from OZ
I was in the audience that night one of the greatest concerts I have seen ...and I have seen my fair share and more..Farnham Rocks. Check out his covers of Black Dog and We will Rock You..they are 1st class..
And Black Dog was done as a soundcheck from memory! Correct me if I’m wrong but, regardless…It was awesome! 👍🏼👍🏼
John can sing anything 🎉❤
This was insane I went to the Classic Jack Tour live in Melbourne. John Farnham is one hell of an entertainer we bloody love him. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
It was spectacular watched many times
It was one of his best concerts ever!
And I was 8 when I started loving on JF I've see every concert live
W3 still love you John❤
Corrected Last song of the concert .!! Every person on their feet. The place was literally moving 🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤
This was actually the LAST song of the night, the fourth and last encore song.
Last song
My favorite all time singers.
Magic 🤗
A fantastic job done to a brilliant song.
Its a great live experience. He doesn't normally tour with an orchestra, but for that filmed performance he reworked some of his arrangements. I personally loved the studio version with his usual rock band -but all versions of this song have o bring high energy regardless.
Umm I think you find that it was David Hirschfelder that arranged the music etc for the Orchestra.
@@aussiekat6379 Yes, absolutely, I merat John's overall guiding hand
You should watch John Fareham and Tom Jones singing, "It's a long way to the top."...its stupendously epic!
Yes our John can do anything you should hear him do Led Zeppelin's 'Black Dog' only audio i'm afraid as it was only done as a sound check, fortunately the Sound Tech recorded it, it is Awesome!
His band and the Melbourne symphony orchestra .
Fantastic Review . I’ve watched this so many times.
Aussies sing - ‘It’s a long way to the top if you want a sausage roll’ lol.
Melbourne Symphony Orchestra and Conductor Dobbs Franks had a ball. Great to see a symphony orchestra having so much fun😊
we always used to sing 'it's a long way to the shop if you want a sausage roll'
@@bonnielee78
What , you don’t anymore? lol 😊
@@bernadettelanders7306 of course I still do lol

😂👍
My daughter is twenty three
She used this as her high school quote when she graduated
John Farnham = PARTY 🎉
That's what you call a standing novation 😂😂😂😂😊👍🇭🇲🦘😆😆😆😆😆😆😆👍great reaction again guys I asked you about 8 months to check this vid out but you see it now worth the watch for sure. Keep up the great reaction 👍😊🇭🇲🦘
It’s a long way to the shop if you want a sausage roll
Wow he sounds good 👍😎👌🎤🎸
Bloody brilliant
I remember watching this when it was on the telly!! 😜 And John sang HELP! by The Beatles! AMAZING!! 😍
We adore our amazing JF here in Oz, bloody fantastic,
Fun fact john Farnham sang with queen & he rocked it.
Definitely stupendous.
Yep Travis and Susie, Aussies love their music, even orchestral gigsters... so much to choose from. Yummy! Cheers from Sydney, AU. P.S. and that was after 2.5 hours on stage, a nice little encore.
Good to see you back with some epic John ❤
Many, many thanks to Tanya! Have been hoping some one else would react to this banger! Farnham and the guys giving their all. Right up there with the AC DC version!
Not only AC/DC but 'Black Dog' as well.
Thanks for this, it never fails to make me smile and I love your work
yeah top tier perfrmance frm everyone, , place was buzn, johns vocals r so versatile, wasnt sure bout vis a few yrs ago n ven heard it n rite away i said yes!
Have the DVD for this Concert. It’s the best and JF is the best. ❤❤❤
Another song worth listening to is John's rendition of Led Zep's Black Dog. It will not disappoint. It was recorded by his sound engineer during a Sound Check. Awesome
He can even sing opera. Very versatile.
This was apparently towards the end of a 3hr concert!
I love AC/DC but this is so much better. John is the greatest male vocalist of all time, he can sing anything, any genre and has sung in most genres. This was I think the 3rd encore after a 21/2 hour concert and everyone still has so much energy, especially John and everyone, including the orchestra conductor is having an absolute ball.
Now you need to listern to his led zeppelin black dog cover
You'll only get audio as warm up song for him
Cheers guys 🦘🇦🇺👍
They’ve done that
Try seeing him live❤❤❤
Hey
I just saw your reaction to Tina singing Led Zeppelin.
That song was done by John is band as well.
Wow !
If only he and Tina sung together it would've been awesome.
I know they know each other very well.
John is
the GOAT
Great version..2 artists to look at L.A.B and Stan Walker 's theme song from the movie Origin..
Because of John's 1st chart hit "Sadie the cleaning lady ", American record labels thought and said "This guy can't be a real singer, we're not going to give him the time of day" And that is why America did not get to hear John
Does a ripper version of Black Dog/Led Zep as well!!!
😅😅😅Aussies know how to have a fun time👍👍👍
Out of respect for Bon Scott, he doesn't use bagpipes in this song, hence the keyboard, even though they had a piper at the concert for Your the Voice song. I love his respect for Bon. ❤❤
John did this with tom honest, was awesome too
Just epic, eh? Best encore for the best live performance in the history of music, anywhere, ever.
as a aussie to hear of john singing this song is chalk and cheese,to bon singing ,,but a aussie heart singing ,, bring it on
Great rendition of an ACDC classic sung by Bon Scott. The band does not sing this anymore in honour of Bon.
Bon is irreplaceable! 😢
@@jenniferharrison8915 Saw AC/DC (with Bon) play at my high school (Frankston) hall....blown away
My friends... The Warning and Michael Starr LIVE/ Highway to Hell please
Yes I'm of "advanced years" but I'd still wear David's jacket. Lisa really went all in as well.
Blow your mind with early Jimmy Barnes Cold Chisel "wild thing" like you've never seen before. LIVE
JF is the goat. You guys need to listen to his back catalogue. Some would argue the best voice ever to come out of the land down under. Jimmy Barnes a very close second
I'm very sure that Sir Bon Scott would of lov'n this.
FYI the woman he bends down to kiss is his wife Jillian. As of 2024 they have been married for 51 years ❤❤
That's not his wife.
I have been to many Farnsie concerts including this one with the Melb Symphony Orch, not necessarily the one that was video recorded.
John Farnham while a great artist on record, CD or whatever is far better as a live performer.
What you heard with Long Way To The Top was done after a 2 or 3 hour long concert and everyone still had the same energy as they had at the beginning.
As far as Australia goes, Farnsie was the Swiftie of the 80's and 90's and to some extent, still is.
If you want to see John Farnham's range, check out The Main Event with Olivia Newton-John and Anthony Warlow, it's on the same level as his concert with the MSO.
I worked at a community radio station with the minister that officiated at John and Jill's wedding, he sent a heart felt letter to us on the ministers passing.
Queen asked him to join them after Freddie died but he said no. There is a release of him and Queen doing "we will rock you" that is rather good. You can also find him singing with Tom Jones, Ray Charles and Celine Dion
I've seen them all, unfortunately Celine Dion for all her talent, was just not up to John's level, she did not have the strength for You're The Voice.
Suzi Swing ❤
This was his first encore, Help was his second…
Check out playing to win from the same concert another high energy song
You missed "the kiss" at 3.15
Susie spotted it
