SO MANY OF YOU WANTED THIS REACTION! IT’S FINALLY HERE!! 😁 Sorry it took so long y’all. Like I said, Savannah is in college so we only get together once a week so I apologize. I hope you guys enjoy this one. ❤️💩🇺🇸🇦🇺 ~THIS VIDEO IS NOT MONETIZED~
Side note i gave my daughter Savanna as a middle name. Note the missing H. Because apparently i am a dumbass ;) . But it did cause a few correctly spelt Savannah's around me after her birth.
@@Areyousayingidontknowmyname To me there Is no right or wrong way to spell a name. You spell it how you like it, as a parent 🥰. Look at my name, most people spell it Tonya. Therefore no one ever ever says my name correctly lol. Savanna is a beautiful middle name. My Savannah is Savannah Rae ❤️
@@ToniaElkins Actually very confusing for locals here as our major city is called Adelaide. Locals don't realize its a name. ha ha. Queen Adelaide. So she would get teased. But there is a actually a yearly get together in the City. For those named Adelaide :)
They had a great freindship spanning 50 years and this concert was at a time when Olivia was just recovering from her first bout of breast cancer, so their chemistry is very real. The performed several concerts together over the years so there's plenty of duets to discover. Try them singing Dare to Dream together at the Sydney Olympics
The crowd was being respectful and still in the presence of Australian musical royalty . Great reaction , they do sing other songs together including YOUR THE ONE THAT I WANT from GREASE so you should check it out .I would also recommend Olivia (RIP) singing TOTALLY DEVOTED TO YOU my favourite song from her , and John's version of GETHSEMANE from the Australian production of JESUS CHRIST SUPERSTAR not sung together but my favourites and I'd like to see what you both think .
Sang Two Strong Hearts, You're the One That I Want and You're The Voice together several times (including YTV to the Australian troops in East Timor). They also sang at the opening of the 2000 Olympics at Sydney together. All live of course. At Olivia's memorial service last week it was said that there were three Johns in her life - John (her husband), John Travolta and John Farnham and it was also stated that John Farnham was her favourite singer. Delta Goodrem sang a medley of Olivia's songs at the memorial. Delta was excellent as usual.
@@ToniaElkins - one of my friends (Maggie Burns nee Stewart - trained ballet dancer, who became a GoGo dancer and choreographer) was one of Olivia Neutron-Bomb's friends, who stayed in touch over the years and her husband (Ronnie Burns) sang at coffee shops in St. Kilda in the sixties when Olivia and him both started out. Olivia went a long way from humble beginnings.
Actually, it was 4 Johns in her life. The other is John Farrar, her long-time Aussie songwriter and record producer. He wrote many of her hits: Have You Never Been Mellow, Don't Stop Believin', Sam, Hopelessly Devoted to You, You're The One That I Want, A Little More Love, Magic, Suddenly, Make a Move on Me and many other album tracks.
Olivia last performance was with John in 2020. It was possibly also John's last performance due to his diagnosis, and if so how fitting that they sang their last live performance together ❤️ 🥰❤️
Love the reaction. 👍 I have this concert on DVD and they also sing “You’re the one that I want “ from Grease and “ Two strong hearts “ but I don’t know if anyone has put them on RUclips. ❤🇦🇺
Just a suggestion- if you do pause, please go back 10 seconds when you resume as you missed the best transition of the entire song by pausing and restarting right in the middle of it! Thanks :) Also not sure if you realised the last line of the song, John took the higher role and Olivia the lower- it’s nearly always the other way round with male/female duets and just shows his incredible versatility. PS you absolutely can teach yourself vibrato- it involves training of the false vocal cords and isn’t just something you have or don’t have 😉
Besides having the best voice ever, JF can adjust his tone, pitch, volume, to match the person he is singing with to either match them or sing just under them depending on who's the head line act, he will even back himself down when he is the head line to give others their moment to shine, and if my ears were sensitive enough, I wouldn't be surprised if he could vary his vibrato and all of those other things that voices can do so he could accentuate the other singers.
Actually they are both Australian , well naturalised Australians that is . Both of them were borne in England and emigrated to Australia as kids. Probably two of the most loved Australian performers of all time and extremely talented.
Libby and John started out in the business at the same time, in the same town. They were both just teenagers and matured in the business together. They became good friends and have been ever since.
Dare to dream from the Sydney 2000 Olympics. Was great. Also this concert featured olivia, John and Anthony warlow (an Australian Broadway and opera singer) , you should check out John and Anthony together I'm "Anthony warlow elevates us to high art. :)
@@ToniaElkins during rehearsals of song dare to dream, for the Olympic Games here in Australia, John tells the story of how he dropped Olivia as they were walking, even Olivia laughed when he’d tell the story. As mentioned they have been friends only - since teenagers. Olivia’s teenage vids in Aus are on RUclips. When in Aus Jill and her husband would have dinner with John and his wife. All good friends for decades. Rip darling Livy💞
In that last segment, you two were as still as you said the audience behind them both were... Now you understand why ... Two Magical voices and two beautiful souls sang together.
John took Olivia under his wing after she had a big pause in her singing and he never stopped until just prior to her death She was adorable. He is the greatest singer ever and an awesome human being as well. He may never sing again after his surgery.
As an Aussie who grew up listening to and seeing John Farnham, it was always so funny when he was interviewed and he would talk about his mother-in-law, and he called her 'The Dragon'. He actually loved her very much, but it always got a huge laugh.
Omg that’s so cute and hilarious!! I’m really really enjoying learning all these little things about him! It all just makes me love him even more! And since I’m a fairly new fan I’m kinda fan girling over him a little each time we react to him. And Jimmy Barnes too 😂 It’s sad that I’m so far behind the times with these amazing humans. Thank goodness for the internet. Now Americans and whoever else can discover him!
@@ToniaElkins you might find a 60 min segment how John Farnham got his voice. Also “ ray martin midday show John Farnham singing please don’t ask me “ Lovely interview.
This was one of John’s solos and my daughter won a big singing competition singing this song. She announced it was one of John’s before she started and not only did I not know, one of the Judges wrote that she didn’t like his music but after hearing that song she was going home to listen to a lot more of it. I love John and Livvie singing this as a duet. He had his wife Jilly’s permission to kiss her once a night for 3 months. That was how long the Main Event tour went with Anthony Warlow. They both did that tour with him because he had just had some really horrible cancer treatment, the have three great hearts. John even sings Opera with Anthony at this concert. Livvie was a good friend her whole career. Odd facts, both John and my husband moved from England when they were 10 years old. My husband went to High School with Livvie. She was at his sister school. I asked him how he felt about that. He told me I was 14 and I had to do dance practice and then partner one for the dance. He was a late bloomer. He did tell me she was very smiley and she waved going home. No, not when he was 14, he was 21 then and still blooming.😂 In this concert they got Anthony back out there from Cancer. Now we lost her to it and John is fighting it. Most Americans do not know she was ours or just how many of your stars are ours. Richard Marx has done a 4 part series on John. So far I think he has found John can sing I think 17 different genres including opera. Without effort, not bad for a guy who never had a singing lesson. My daughter’s voice had beautiful Vibrato. Her last voice Coach told her it had to go. It can be removed and my daughter walked away from her career. Thank you.
That’s amazing about your daughter winning a competition with that song. And for walking away from such an obvious horrible Coach. And how cool that Your husband went to school with Olivia! My daughter went to school with Leah Marlene from American idol last season, Leah was top 3. She should’ve won. When Leah did the home visit she visited the school choir and they filmed it so my daughter was on American idol in a home visit clip lol. If you love unique beautiful singers I highly suggest looking up Leah Marlene on idol. 😊 I think the younger generation here and many countries don’t really know where ppl originate. I think the people closer to my age are more aware of these things. And then they just teach their kids some of what they know about their favorite artists. 💜
@@ToniaElkins, I will have to look and see. We don’t get American Idol anymore. Mine tried out for Australian Idol when she was 16, she had no intention of going on the show. She did want to how it worked for a friend. He was an amazing singer and he was turned down 2 years running. Kye did her audition not in front of the judges like on TV. They used producers and singing coaches before you get to the judges. They told my daughter it was a no but to try again. She asked them why it was a no so she could improve. She had the lead in stage musicals since she was 10 years old. They told her there is nothing she could improve as she was already at a Professional level. The aim of the show is to take people with talent that had small but easy to fix problems and make it look like they helped them improve each week. She was dialing her friend as she left the building. She told him she was saving him a space in the line and to come back because she knew how to get him through. When he got there she told him if the same set of Judges was going to see him again to push the person behind him forward and wait for the second lot of judges who hadn’t seen him. Then he had to get bit pitchy and go off key once. He got through, he was in about 6 episodes when they found out just how good he really was. He was sent home and all of the filming they had done of him was removed. It made me look at that show in a different way after that. Idol has just started back this year after being missing for a long time. Our main judge is Harry Connick Jnr and I will watch anything he is in.
@@karenstrong8887 Omg that is so insane! I’m shocked, although I really shouldn’t be. Harry Connick Jr was on American idol too 😊 Clips of Leah on idol can be found on RUclips. Here’s one of her own songs. It’s so good! (If you’re interested) ruclips.net/video/w7l_UUcEqmw/видео.html
You never really appreciate there singing until there lives change an yours ; johns voice is adaptable to any song an the queen is our queen . Gone but not forgotten, John may never sing again but wow what a list an vids off songs he has left for us . Olivia will always be sandy to all off us
Great reaction! Such a beautiful performance. I miss Olivia so much! Please react to "Sam" live from her 1982 concert. Anything from that concert (Physical World Tour) would be awesome. She was amazing.
John and Olivia were born in the UK in 1948, moved th Au and began to sing on Bandstand in Sydney then same year. They have been friends forever, God bless them both.
Two of Australia’s finest RIP Olivia,while Savanna’s home check out Aussie Matt Corby song Brother and do the live version on like a version (that’s the show’s name confused lol) hope I spelt your daughter’s name right she would be the same age as my daughter and she absolutely loves Matt
I spell Savannah with an H. That’s cool our daughters are the same age. Matt Corby is towards the top of my list so we will be reacting to him soon. 😊 We have 4 videos already recorded that’ll come out first.
This song is from a concert they did with another singer Anthony Warlow who is know for his opera voice he did Phantom of the opera. The full concert added below show the 3 of them singing various duets as well as solo's and all 3 together, there are lots of fun parts though out the concert as well, which showcase johns sense of humor ruclips.net/video/qd-USQDe9dg/видео.html
I love those two and have 2 CD albums of theirs "Two Strong Hearts" and the album & DVD of this concert with Anthony Warlow as well in "The Main Event". Anthony is a classically trained exceptional opera/musical theatre singer e.g. "Phantom of the Opera" & "Les Miserable" & The Main Event includes much friendly banter and John singing Granada with Anthony is friendly & fun, with a touch of affectatious mimicry. It's 0100hrs & freezing here so rather than trekking to the garage to find my copies I'm sure that you can source the list of tracks online.
You're never offensive in my book. You make connections however you make connections. Just be you. And you're not stupid ... an open mind is a wonderful thing. ☺
🤗This was from 🇦🇺The Main Event,🙏check out Grenada too.🥰It had John(Rock), Olivia (pop), Anthony Warlow (opera).🤗Then Hey Hey it’s Saturday,🙏with the Aussie Cast🇦🇺 of Jesus Christ Super Star.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️ 💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
John has recently had massive sugery for cancer in his mouth (smoking) they have replace some bone in his jaw and dont know if he be able to sing again. 12 hour surgery 😲
Aussies get up and partie to musicians or bands but when the right song arrives we pay respect and listen enjoy saviour the moment while it lasts. Bugger the nah sayers ladies you react how you feel. Isn't that the point of it
One of my fav duets. Yes they have been friends for many decades. But John is a one woman man. Still married to his lovely wife Jilly. He wrote "Burn for You' for her. that is worth a look. Thanks so much for your great reaction...I look forward to more. If you want another Aussie male artist to react to I'd go with Guy Sebastian. Singer/songwriter...Writes about real life. The song 'Believer' he wrote for his wife Jules. Always look for 'live' performances...He won Australian Idol and is also a judge on the Voice Australia. He's one of Australia's best. (since John) lol He recently did a 'medley' of 3 of his hit songs for the judges performance on The Voice...gives you a bit of a look see at this gorgeous man. ruclips.net/video/HUn7BTMWb8A/видео.html
We’ve reacted to Guy Sebastian once before. He’s very talented 😊 Thank you for the song suggestions too! I absolutely adore both John and Olivia. They’re adorable together on stage. I love it!
Only fools choose to to be offended, when no offence is intended. It’s fairly obvious that neither of you intend to offend anyone. So please don’t fear risking someone choosing offence by filtering your natural selves. Thank you for this reaction, John and Olivia had very good chemistry, both long time friends with a talent for singing and theatre and it shows with the beautiful performance. Speaking of natural chemistry, I appreciate both of you S.and T. for putting yourself out there, having a bit of fun and bringing some lighthearted positive vibes into my lounge room. Hope the storm didn’t cause any damage and wishing you both a most excellent week ahead.
Tell your friends that a professional told you that vibratoe comes from the diagram, not the throte. It's part of your chest voice, not your head voice. Though it can be used to control head voice. But listen to me rave on. If you have a singing coach at school, they can teach you all that.
If people get offended then that is their issue and not yours. Offence needs to be taken by the person, it is their choice. Just be yourself, if people don't like it then they can choose not to watch. No one has the right to tell you what you should or shouldn't do.
Your daughter might be picking up on the operatic sound in John's voice.He also has experience in theatre musicals in the earlier part of his singing career
Not sure if it's true or not but I was told years ago that this song was about two people falling in love but the males part is a single guy and the females part is of a married lady falling in love with someone else.
For the non😈worshippers among us - and there could be 3 or 4 of us on RUclips 😂 - they also have a 12 track Christmas album titled 'Friends For Christmas🎄
I think someone mentioned the Christmas album to us once. I’d give it a listen. But I’ll be perfectly honest, Savannah doesn’t like Christmas music in general lol. And I’m not exactly the biggest fan of it, but I did grow up listening to Elvis Presley Christmas music every December 🥰
@Tonia Elkins Please tell me you have at least heard: Seymour Swine & The Squealers - Blue Christmas 🐖🐖🐷🐖🐖... 😂 It's a barometer... if you're not laughing, have a nurse check your pulse 🐷👍
Love you reactions esp John’s. Please don’t apologise for your daughter in any way. She is a teenager, enough said. The fact that you two can do this channel together is a sign you are doing something right. Some teenagers of that age can barely speak to their mum. She is coming out of the most awkward years of no confidence and is finding her own person. She is quite beautiful and shows a love and knowledge of music. Just ignore the trouts that post rude stuff. You are building memories and building a lifelong friendship that starts when Savannah reaches maturity. You won’t keep everyone happy so best not to try. Many of the songs are 30 or more years old. Like dinosaurs to a teenager, I love hearing her take on what she is hearing. We are never too old or too young to learn. I recently went to my first heavy metal gig at 75. My daughter in law has a band and is a singer and bass player. Now I felt a stranger to the style but enjoyed the experience. So forget about the nasty ones, If they have issue why are they watching? Some people are naturally negative. Celebrate every moment you spend together. Too soon your children are gone, living a busy life with much less time to just be mum ❤ and daughter. Love from Australia.
That is so sweet thank you so much! You almost made me cry with this lol. I really appreciate all of you for taking the time to watch us. It means the world! And yes I’m very blessed to have this amazing relationship with my daughter 💜 And that’s awesome you went to your first heavy metal concert! I bet your daughter in law rocks! Playing bass AND singing, wow! Kudos to her.
@@ToniaElkins yes it was amazing. My son plays drums my other son saxophone, I love bass guitar so I’m used to noise but the concert was LOUD! My son provided me with ear plugs. My daughter in law is this sweet soft spoken girly girl but up on stage she shows her rage. Probably why she stays so sane the rest of the time. She dedicated her new song to me and told the crowd it was my first Hm gig at 75. The crowd roared “go Nana “ I had such fun. I didn’t know what to wear so I wore black with a purple tie dye jacket with a crystal pendant. I fit right in LOL. It was great to share the moment across the generational divide.. So I get what you guys are doing. Keep it up.
SO MANY OF YOU WANTED THIS REACTION! IT’S FINALLY HERE!! 😁 Sorry it took so long y’all. Like I said, Savannah is in college so we only get together once a week so I apologize. I hope you guys enjoy this one. ❤️💩🇺🇸🇦🇺

Try them singing Dare to Dream together at the Sydney Olympics
Will do! ❤️
Yes, there are CDs & DVDs of John and Olivia singing together still available. I've bought 2 in the last 6 months.
Such a beautiful song and performed and acted perfectly.
Yes I agree 💜

Australian here, New to your channel, don't worry about the internet trolls, you just be you and ignore them.
Welcome! And thank you 🥰
Beautiful 😎❤️🇦🇺
Olivia last performance was with John in 2020. It was possibly also John's last performance due to his diagnosis, and if so how fitting that they sang their last live performance together ❤️ 🥰❤️
Oh wow. So sweet but sad.
Love the reaction. 👍 I have this concert on DVD and they also sing “You’re the one that I want “ from Grease and “ Two strong hearts “ but I don’t know if anyone has put them on RUclips. ❤🇦🇺

I have seen both of them on RUclips so they are there somewhere.
Just a suggestion- if you do pause, please go back 10 seconds when you resume as you missed the best transition of the entire song by pausing and restarting right in the middle of it!

The stage was round. I believe this was from The Main Event tv show 1998. The day she passed away was the day he was diagnosed with cancer in his jaw.
Wow 😢 That’s gotta be the hardest thing to comprehend and go through.

Look at The Main Event tour for more Olivier and John
These two go way back to the late 60's early 70's as youngsters on the Aussie pop scene i think their last time was 2019 bush fire relief concert
If you’re honest opinion offends someone to hell with them it’s your opinion and real people are had to find. You go girls, Aussie Aussie Aussie.

John & Olivia had been friends for more than 55 years. Although they were both born in England, they were both in Australia at a very young age.
Great reaction! Such a beautiful performance. I miss Olivia so much! Please react to "Sam" live from her 1982 concert. Anything from that concert (Physical World Tour) would be awesome. She was amazing.
Ok thanks for the suggestion 😁🤘
John and Olivia were born in the UK in 1948, moved th Au and began to sing on Bandstand in Sydney then same year. They have been friends forever, God bless them both.

48 49...near enough....
Two of Australia’s finest RIP Olivia,while Savanna’s home check out Aussie Matt Corby song Brother and do the live version on like a version (that’s the show’s name confused lol) hope I spelt your daughter’s name right she would be the same age as my daughter and she absolutely loves Matt
I spell Savannah with an H. That’s cool our daughters are the same age. Matt Corby is towards the top of my list so we will be reacting to him soon. 😊 We have 4 videos already recorded that’ll come out first.
This could have fitted right into Grease.
Olivia sang Hopelessly devoted to you in Grease. Written by John Farrar, another Australian musician.
Yep
It was nice to see you both enjoy this performance so much. It's one of my favourites.
Yes it was beautiful. It made it even better seeing their chemistry together 💜
This song is from a concert they did with another singer Anthony Warlow who is know for his opera voice he did Phantom of the opera.
The full concert added below show the 3 of them singing various duets as well as solo's and all 3 together, there are lots of fun parts though out the concert as well, which showcase johns sense of humor

Johns our Aussie legend!!!!!
Crying into my coffee listening to this. RIP Olivia ❤
just amazing voices
I agree 100%
@@ToniaElkins should look at his duo with sir Tom Jones on hey hey its Saturday
@@alfiewebb9978 That was just suggested to me. I will definitely check that out. 😊
I love those two and have 2 CD albums of theirs "Two Strong Hearts" and the album & DVD of this concert with Anthony Warlow as well in "The Main Event". Anthony is a classically trained exceptional opera/musical theatre singer e.g. "Phantom of the Opera" & "Les Miserable" & The Main Event includes much friendly banter and John singing Granada with Anthony is friendly & fun, with a touch of affectatious mimicry. It's 0100hrs & freezing here so rather than trekking to the garage to find my copies I'm sure that you can source the list of tracks online.
You're never offensive in my book. You make connections however you make connections. Just be you. And you're not stupid ... an open mind is a wonderful thing. ☺
Thank you 😊
🤗This was from 🇦🇺The Main Event,🙏check out Grenada too.🥰It had John(Rock), Olivia (pop), Anthony Warlow (opera).🤗Then Hey Hey it’s Saturday,🙏with the Aussie Cast🇦🇺 of Jesus Christ Super Star.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ⭐️ 💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋💋⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

John has recently had massive sugery for cancer in his mouth (smoking) they have replace some bone in his jaw and dont know if he be able to sing again. 12 hour surgery 😲
I heard. That’s so sad. 😔❤️
Don’t worry about what people think, you are very natural and it shows. Keep it up thankyou
Thank you 😊
Aussies get up and partie to musicians or bands but when the right song arrives we pay respect and listen enjoy saviour the moment while it lasts. Bugger the nah sayers ladies you react how you feel. Isn't that the point of it
Yes it is. What’s the point if we aren’t 100% ourselves? 😊
One of my fav duets. Yes they have been friends for many decades. But John is a one woman man. Still married to his lovely wife Jilly. He wrote "Burn for You' for her. that is worth a look. Thanks so much for your great reaction...I look forward to more. If you want another Aussie male artist to react to I'd go with Guy Sebastian. Singer/songwriter...Writes about real life. The song 'Believer' he wrote for his wife Jules. Always look for 'live' performances...He won Australian Idol and is also a judge on the Voice Australia. He's one of Australia's best. (since John) lol He recently did a 'medley' of 3 of his hit songs for the judges performance on The Voice...gives you a bit of a look see at this gorgeous man. ruclips.net/video/HUn7BTMWb8A/видео.html
We’ve reacted to Guy Sebastian once before. He’s very talented 😊 Thank you for the song suggestions too!
I absolutely adore both John and Olivia. They’re adorable together on stage. I love it!
Nice ❤
👍
👍
Such a great song!
Only fools choose to to be offended, when no offence is intended. It’s fairly obvious that neither of you intend to offend anyone. So please don’t fear risking someone choosing offence by filtering your natural selves.
Thank you for this reaction, John and Olivia had very good chemistry, both long time friends with a talent for singing and theatre and it shows with the beautiful performance. Speaking of natural chemistry, I appreciate both of you S.and T. for putting yourself out there, having a bit of fun and bringing some lighthearted positive vibes into my lounge room. Hope the storm didn’t cause any damage and wishing you both a most excellent week ahead.
Thank you so much. You have no idea how much comments like this mean to me 💜
Tell your friends that a professional told you that vibratoe comes from the diagram, not the throte. It's part of your chest voice, not your head voice. Though it can be used to control head voice. But listen to me rave on. If you have a singing coach at school, they can teach you all that.
If people get offended then that is their issue and not yours. Offence needs to be taken by the person, it is their choice. Just be yourself, if people don't like it then they can choose not to watch. No one has the right to tell you what you should or shouldn't do.
Thank you 🥰🥰
Your daughter might be picking up on the operatic sound in John's voice.He also has experience in theatre musicals in the earlier part of his singing career
You could be right! My daughter did musical theater senior year of high school. She loved it! Thanks so much for watching ❤️
Another one to consider would be Olivia and Sir Cliff Richard. They did a duet together. Also long time friends.
Do you know the song name? 😊
@@ToniaElkins I quickly looked it up for you. Suddenly is the title of the song. You would be looking for the 80s version
@@Areyousayingidontknowmyname Ok thank you 😊
Nice one girls. And the sound was fine for me. 👍😊
Oh good I’m glad! It was sounding a little funky for me lol
Wonderful ❤😎🇦🇺
🤘💩
Not sure if it's true or not but I was told years ago that this song was about two people falling in love but the males part is a single guy and the females part is of a married lady falling in love with someone else.
Oh interesting!
For the non😈worshippers among us - and there could be 3 or 4 of us on RUclips 😂 - they also have a 12 track Christmas album titled 'Friends For Christmas🎄
I think someone mentioned the Christmas album to us once. I’d give it a listen. But I’ll be perfectly honest, Savannah doesn’t like Christmas music in general lol. And I’m not exactly the biggest fan of it, but I did grow up listening to Elvis Presley Christmas music every December 🥰
@Tonia Elkins Please tell me you have at least heard: Seymour Swine & The Squealers - Blue Christmas
🐖🐖🐷🐖🐖... 😂
It's a barometer... if you're not laughing, have a nurse check your pulse 🐷👍
@@justinwolff1416 Lol I don’t actually know if I have or not.
Both British born. Aussies are used to taking our celebrities and claiming them as theirs.
Can you explain briefly what this video is about I'd would like to learn more about it 😃
Love you reactions esp John’s.
Please don’t apologise for your daughter in any way.
She is a teenager, enough said.
The fact that you two can do this channel together is a sign you are doing something right.
Some teenagers of that age can barely speak to their mum.
She is coming out of the most awkward years of no confidence and is finding her own person.
She is quite beautiful and shows a love and knowledge of music.
Just ignore the trouts that post rude stuff.
You are building memories and building a lifelong friendship that starts when Savannah reaches maturity.
You won’t keep everyone happy so best not to try.
Many of the songs are 30 or more years old.
Like dinosaurs to a teenager,
I love hearing her take on what she is hearing.
We are never too old or too young to learn.
I recently went to my first heavy metal gig at 75. My daughter in law has a band and is a singer and bass player. Now I felt a stranger to the style but enjoyed the experience.
So forget about the nasty ones,
If they have issue why are they watching?
Some people are naturally negative.
Celebrate every moment you spend together.
Too soon your children are gone, living a busy life with much less time to just be mum ❤ and daughter.
Love from Australia.
That is so sweet thank you so much! You almost made me cry with this lol. I really appreciate all of you for taking the time to watch us. It means the world! And yes I’m very blessed to have this amazing relationship with my daughter 💜 And that’s awesome you went to your first heavy metal concert! I bet your daughter in law rocks! Playing bass AND singing, wow! Kudos to her.
@@ToniaElkins yes it was amazing.
My son plays drums my other son saxophone, I love bass guitar so I’m used to noise but the concert was LOUD!
My son provided me with ear plugs.
My daughter in law is this sweet soft spoken girly girl but up on stage she shows her rage.
Probably why she stays so sane the rest of the time.
She dedicated her new song to me and told the crowd it was my first Hm gig at 75.
The crowd roared “go Nana “
I had such fun.
I didn’t know what to wear so I wore black with a purple tie dye jacket with a crystal pendant. I fit right in LOL.
It was great to share the moment across the generational divide..
So I get what you guys are doing.
Keep it up.
Please don't apologize to offended snowflakes. It offends me. Just be yourselves. Cheers from Oz.
Lol ❤️
do you break the sound or something lol. it still happens just depends usually the music. can i get mad and be offended too lol
Well you’d be joining the rest of ‘‘em so why not lol
@@ToniaElkins would i get a hater badge lol
@@bobbykaralfa Haha sure!! I should publicly keep a Talley of these haters and hang it as our video background 🤣
Have you done Jinger pisces? ruclips.net/video/SQNtGoM3FVU/видео.html
No I haven’t heard of this. Is this a band?
@@ToniaElkins Yes, Been done by lots of ppl but I think your reaction would be interesting.
@@petertimp5416 Ok,cool, I’ll add them to my list. Thanks! 😁
