This is a cover of a Sam and Dave song by two Australian legends who are even better live! They have been doing their thing for decades. Farnsy (the blonde one) just had massive emergency surgery at the age of 73 to remove cancerous tumour from his mouth. Had his jaw reconstructed and will probably never sing again. He has given us so much for long. The entire nation is in shock and wishing him well. His cover of the Beatles "Help" is legendary. They do other stuff together too. 💕
That’s Australian rock royalty for ya, they are the two most soulful white dudes ever. Thanks for the awesome reaction I knew after being blown away by listening to Jimmy you were in for a shock listening to John Farnham. Then the icing on the cake is Diesel with his guitar skills, he also happens to be Jimmy Barnes brother in law
Rock legends. In a country that has the same population as some major cities around the world, Aussies are blessed with some of the most amazing talent. Thx for featuring
These three men are all unbelievably amazing singers. The blonde John is one of the best singers in the entire world, just ask all the other legends around the globe and they will point at him despite he never really bothered with international fame. He can sing any and all genre's and his myriad of songs are testament. The other singer Jimmy is just like John, but he prefers his Rock, Blues and Soul. The guitarist Diesel is well known for his Blues and Soul sound, and his voice is something else despite not hearing it very much in this song. You will not be disappointed in listening to any of these three men sing in their own individual works. Being music gods in Australia they will lead you to even more singers of their same caliber and some possibly even better. They all surrounded themselves with only the very best musicians and talent. Just remember to always listen to any of these people LIVE at all times, they are always best live where they can put everything they have into every performance.
I first discovered Jimmy and John singing this incredibly soul bending song about a year ago. I can say without hesitation that they have two of the best male singing voices I’ve ever heard. I can’t believe that I had never heard them perform before. Both are gifted and extraordinarily talented vocalists.
The only comment I have is "ALWAYS DO BARNSY or FARNSY LIVE!"😉 they will reach in and touch your soul in quite a primal way. Now you have heard this maybe do yourself a favour and watch them do this live on Hey Hey It's Saturday. You will k ow you have the right video if their is a wierd looking ostrich puppet on the screen 🤣🤣🤣
Absolute legends. John has been in the news a lot in the last week as he is recovering from life saving surgery to remove a malignant tumour from his oral cavity. Australia has watched on with baited breath. He’s got a long road ahead of him but he’s a fighter. PS live version of this is even better!
@@SoulSessionSundays If you want to be drop to your knees, blown away, check out the cover of The Beatles' "HELP live with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra :) For pure additional entertainment, go watch JBLethal TV's reaction to Help live with MSO. I was cry-laughing as he looked liejk a kid at Christmas :) ❤❤ Got to first see John in Little River Band in 1983 and again on their 1985 tour, two months before flying to Live Aid London! All amazing!
Hard to think that song is 30 years old. Timeless. Jimmy lives about 20 minutes from me, we often see him around town. Nice guy. Johnny, well he's just a legend. Get well soon mate.
3 Australian legends combined in one out of this world song. Jimmy and John are living treasures and the guitarist is Diesel, himself a legend singer and of course guitarist.
LOVED your reaction👍👍 Tip: WHEN you listen to John Farnham...ALWAYS listen to him Live!! He is absolutely astounding! I'll never forget the first time I heard him Live...I was gobsmacked 😲🤯..& he's just the nicest bloke ever too! 😎 Yep,soul doesn't come from your skin.... from the❤️ ✌️❤️ 🇦🇺🍻
Farnsy and Barnesy...the blonde is John Farnham and the other is Jimmy Barnes...they are living treasures and Johnny Diesel (Jimmy's bro in law) is incredible on guitar. I so love this song.
I've just started the video and a few seconds in you're already excited. I'm thinking just you wait they havent even warmed up yet. Two of the greatest singers in Australia. Soul overload ..who would have guessed :) EDIT: if you thought this studio version was good, you should check them out singing live, twice as good and even Deisel the guitar player gets in on the singing action. Meantime i hope you will react to ,pre fro these guys. Ive just subbed and I am sure lots of Aussies will soon be following me. To hear more. Find John Farham singing Help live with the Melbourne symphony orchestra. And an older Jimmy Barnes ft Joe Boamassa singimg Stone Cold. Thanks again for checking out these 2 Aussie Legends ...
Both legends in their own right. To another oz legend.. straight up gurl.. Renee Geyer - heading in the right direction 1981.. if u haven't already.. RIP Renee💙
It's nice to see you again! The last some time ago was when you did a great reaction to The Teskey Brothers singing , 'Hold Me' at 'The Forum 'in Melbourne, Australia. These guys are from Australia, too. The dark-haired man is Jimmy Barnes, the blondie is John Farnham and the guitarist-singer is Diesel. All are separately famous in the music scene here. A better video of this song by this trio is a one on You Tube on a show named, 'Hey, Hey It's Saturday' where this song is done LIVE. John Farnham is my favourite and is considered as music royalty here. He has a powerful voice with a big vocal range. His career spans 5 to 6 decades and he can sing in about 20 different music genres. He is brilliant and best seen and heard LIVE where his Soul shines! He has some fabulous videos on YT with The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. John is the consummate showman with an incredible electric and charismatic energy. Often his songs will carry a message for the greater good of the world. Audiences love him. Please check out more of his music. Lots of Aussie and other fans will be waiting for that.
I always feel Jimmy’s voice in my heart and John’s on a cellular level. Jimmy has the grit and gravel and John has the range that make you feel goose bumps.
And now do nothing else with your day until you’ve seen and reacted to John Farnham singing ‘Help’ live with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. You’ll know why once you’ve seen it 🙂
Jimmy Barnes is a Scottish immigrant who suffered an extremely abusive childhood. He became the frontman of the legendary Australian rock band Cold Chisel, where he famously would get through a full bottle of Vodka on stage at every show. After he left Chisel he became the biggest Aussie rock artist thoughout the 80s. This song is Jimmy reinventing himself as a soul singer. And it ended up becoming his most successful album ever.
Nice reaction welcome to the rabbit hole all Aussie icons we haven't even scratched the surface as our female singers as good Also we have some really good modern day male female singers as well most of our are singer song writers and produce their own music You need to watch their live stuff if you thought that was good you can pick anything with John Farnham and Melbourne symphony orchestra but he has 5 decades of hits Does Beatles song (help) live they praised him for it He's called the voice so watch the song (you're the voice) live Back in black he covered of AC/DC live Black dog he covered led zeppelin live Amazing grace with back up singer vendetta and Lindsay fields live Angels with other back up singer Lisa Edwards live This shows you john's true personality Only scratching the surface with these from John Farnham As he sings every genre you can think of rock blues opera ballets anything Same for Jimmy barnes live performances anything live as well try Jimmy barnes and Joe bonamassa (Stone cold) Jimmy barnes and Tina Turner simply the best Working class man Driving wheels Many more hits He was part of a band called cold chisel First song is with one of the other band member ian moss who is current singer and as good in his own right live performances Bow River When the war is over Chior girl Geogia on my mind Them you have the guitarist you listen to with them Name johnny diesel He's a great singer as well look his music up as well Good luck with list these are only a few of these guys
Jimmy recently put out a duet of "Soothe Me," with Dave from Sam and Dave. He has re-released for the 30th anniversary, of his album "Soul Deep" with a few extras.
See this live it's even better. Watch John Farnham live you will be blown away. Diesel on the guitar is amazing in his own right. Singer, songwriter. Also happens to be married to Jimmy Barnes's sister-in-law. Hence performing together. This lot get better as they get older too.
These 2 are so adored here in Australia, I have had the absolute privilege of seeing them both live many times over the years. Our dear John needs prayers and healing vibes right now. 💕💕
This song really does something to me too. I can listen to it over and over again. The USA gave the world Soul and Blues and Gospel and the world fell in love, and sang right back. Barnsey and Farnsey are two of the world's greatest singers individually. And what is magical about both of them is that they are both amazing duetists who have collaborated with so many other artists. Barnsey in particular is so good at reigning in his powerhouse voice to let the other person shine too. I think you would like Stone Cold in Love by Jimmy Barnes and Joe Bonamassa too.
Great reaction. If you want to truly experience the awesomeness of John and jimmy, invest in a quality set of headphones. You will be blown away. Jimmy Barnes and Joe Bonamassa are a must watch if you love soul. Cheers from Oz, and get well soon, John.
Welcome to the world of of John and jimmy , John is known as the voice, if you keep doing reactions buckle up for a wild ride . John singing Help the Beatles song is something else.enjoy
I just subscribed. I love your love and appreciation of our loved sons. The absolute best singers the world has ever heard. And beautiful people as well. Legends in Australia.
Find all of John’s back catalogue. Look for The Voice or Help live. Then look for Cold Chisel. I grew up with these guys. Seen them heaps of times. I first saw Cold Chisel in 1976 at high school. BTW the guitarist is called Diesel. He’s a prodigious talent by himself. Aussie rock. Try Midnight Oil, The Angels, Rose Tattoo. I was spoilt.
Jimmy Barnes brother in law was the guy on the guitar (Diesel). Jimmy was once the King of Rock, and John has been the King of Pop. He started with SADIE THE CLEANING LADY (on youtube) in 1967. I think he would now consider himself retired as he had part of his jaw removed in a 12 hour operation the other day for cancer. He's 72/73 now. John was a good friend of Olivia Newton John and they had similar histories having come from England to Melbourne, Victoria. Both were in the business in the 1960's in Melbourne. They worked together with albums and there is a 2 hour beautiful concert on youtube called THE MAIN EVENT with them and Anthony Warlow who was Australia's Phantom from PHANTOM OF THE OPERA. John does a wonderful concert too with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra with songs like HELP and YOU'RE THE VOICE - both on youtube. Also check out on youtube the 2000 Sydney Olympics Opening Ceremony with ONJ and John singing DARE TO DREAM.
Music just does really bring us all together. Forget about politics and the rest of the problems in the world, listening to this we are one. Great reaction vid :-)
This is my first time watching your channel. At first I thought you didn’t like it and I felt my heart sink. THEN I realised you were surprised and liked it. John Farnham and Jimmy Barnes are legends in Australia. I’m just about to bat my half century and I can’t remember a time these men, with their incredible voices, weren’t in my life. Even two white fellas can have soul. 💝💝💝
@@SoulSessionSundays Thank you so much for replying. It is greatly appreciated. Australians adore these men, including Diesel who does backing vocals and the guitar solo. Most of us are very worried about John Farnham. He just had surgery for oral cancer and we won’t be receiving any updates until he has had reconstructive surgery. He is the sweetest man. I’m fortunate enough to have seen him perform live.
It's from 1982 performance of Australian rock icon Jimmy Barnes, and the Australian 'voice' John Fareham with Jonny diesel on electric guitar and backing vocals. This is great Aussie 80s icons
Yeah check out John farnham singing help with the Melbourne symphony orchestra, old Beatles song slowed down with a twist live in Melbourne with 50 thousand crowd great video
Growing up listening to these 3 Aussie legends, I guess we take it for granted. But seeing reactions from people that are not familiar with them reminds me how iconic they are.
The live performance is way better, Farnsey is magic, Barnsey & Farnsey together even more magical. Farnsey is no 1. You got a long journey with these two iconic Australian singers! Enjoy the ride!
Awesome reaction SSS Gets into your soul ...The guitarist is Johnny Diesel who is Jimmy Barns brother inlaw...they married sisters...In live version of this song he joins them in singing at the end...and the band stops playing they sing it A Capella...too good!. I'm off to watch your Stan Walker reaction I've just caught a glimpse of it lol...
I loved your reaction so much, thank you for sharing it! Welcome down the rabbit hole of Aussie music. Please react to John and Jimmy perform this live, always go the live version with any Australian artist. Please react to John sing Help live with MSO and Jimmy singing River deep mountain high live.
When Jimmy and John get together, it’s big vocals for sure. Two Australian song book killers. Please review Jimmy Barnes and Joe Bonnamassa “ Stone Cold” Jimmy still knocking it out 30 yrs later.
Loved this reaction ✅ These 2 are legends in Australia. Jimmy put out a song earlier this year with Sam Moore (originally from 60’s duo Sam & Dave) called Soothe Me which just oozes soul and fun, you will love it, thats a promise 🙂
I lived in New Jersey for a while back in the sixties, this was the kind of music I remember on the local soul stations... means so much to me to hear people still singing these truly great songs, and that people still appreciate them... the really fine thing is that people are willing to open their hearts and let the soul come through...
Aussie legends all three. Best to listen to John & Jimmy live though. My favourite performances from John are from a concert with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra especially a cover of the Beatles song 'Help' and he's done Black Dog (Led Zeppelin) Granada (opera) soul & everything in between. Amazing talent, brilliant singer awesome human being. All our wishes go out to him for his recovery. Jimmy Barnes - Khe Sahn & Flame Trees & Bow River & When the War is Over with Cold Chisel & Stone Cold & numerous others from his soul repertoire. Tip of my tongue Diesel(Mark Lizotte. Great reaction. 💕
I love watching someone experience some of greatest Aussie talent for the 1st time. These guys have been part of the soundtrack to my life, and I feel blessed that we have such a depth of extraordinary musical talent here in Oz. Heal well soon John. John Farnham, Jimmy Barnes (both with and without band Cold Chisel) and guitarist Diesel have a huge catalogue for you to explore. You could check out the unique Matt Corby, Tash Sultana, The Tesky Brothers and the Waifs.....the list of Aussie talent is endless.
Legends of the Australian Music Industry. Aussie Rock Royalty. Jimmy, Johnny, and Mark are absolute icons. This song still gives me chills, even though it is over 30 years old now. John Farnham was the first concert I ever went to (in the mid 80s) and I have been a fan ever since. Jimmy is just as amazing and he always gives me goosebumps, no matter what he is singing. The bitter-sweet note to this is John Farnham has recently had cancer removed from his mouth, and it looks like his performing days are over. It breaks my heart to know of the new generation of fans who will never get to experience how electrifying he is in person.
Oh my goodness! Well I’m grateful that he has given us a legacy to follow! God bless him …. Hopefully all his well with him 🙏🏽🤎 understandable this song gives you chills … made me feel the exact same way! 😍
Jimmy Barnes, Johnny Diesel on guitar and a singer and our Golden Boy John Farnham. We have a lot of great singers in Australia that no one knew about. The difference is we listen to and watch everyone else. John has one of the top voices in the world and I haven’t seen any genre he can’t sing including Opera. His range is huge, he is a showman, funny, kind and so loved. Always better live and he leaves it all on the stage. Watch him sing Help, live with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. The Beatles wrote it but John showed them how to sing it and I loved the Beatles. I am sure there are many artists afraid John would do a cover of their song and for a good reason. Get well John because you really don’t want me to come and sing to you. My husband hides if I sing.
Diesel great guitar 🎸 player but also lead singer and they are all still performing live 40yrs later. Although John Fareham is battling throat cancer. He's still the best voice of Australia ever. Barney still rocking
I've seen both Jimmy and John live and they are both brilliant they are Australiant royalty, unfortunately John is battling cancer at the moment so we all wish him o much love.
A simple thing living in Aus, it's a huge country with a lot of space where when you grow up here you are connected to the land. You should look up Yothu Yindi & his aboriginal music will help you understand how connected to the land the musician are...
This is two of australias best never made it big on the world stage which was a crying shame as their voices are unforgettable I have been a big fan of cold chisel jimmys previous band which also has great tracks check them out
One of them, Jimmy Barnes, is actually Scottish but has lived in Australia for many years. I have been enjoying both artists for many years. Look up the group Cold Chisel, Jimmy Barnes's original group.
He was born in Scotland but he has been an Australian citizen for decades. He doesn't consider himself Scottish so please don't be disrespectful by calling him something he isn't.
We Aussies tend to think the rest of the world has been living under a rock. We were raised on this calibre and better and the Pub Rock proving ground was notoriously unforgiving so only the real deal made it through. Enjoy.

With Melbourne Symphony Orchestra!
I hope and pray he can heal well enough that he can still sing but he has pushed it for so long, a true legend.
I wouldn’t be surprised if John still sings like an angel
O.M.G.! 🙏 for John.
He need never sing another note. He gave us so much!
I’m from Kentucky just finding out about these Aussie boy’s , best voices I’ve ever heard . Australia 🇦🇺 you should be proud …
One of the greatest duets ever😊
This woman is unbelievable gorgeous wow❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
That’s Australian rock royalty for ya, they are the two most soulful white dudes ever. Thanks for the awesome reaction I knew after being blown away by listening to Jimmy you were in for a shock listening to John Farnham. Then the icing on the cake is Diesel with his guitar skills, he also happens to be Jimmy Barnes brother in law
True 👍 I was going to write let's not forget about Johnny. The man's made some great music
Ps thank you for putting the time to put this out
2 wonderful Australian legends with a lot of soul.

that my friend was the 2 best singers in the world
So glad you love our Australian singers,Aussie singers are not given enough recognition around the world .
I first discovered Jimmy and John singing this incredibly soul bending song about a year ago. I can say without hesitation that they have two of the best male singing voices I’ve ever heard. I can’t believe that I had never heard them perform before. Both are gifted and extraordinarily talented vocalists.
I couldn’t agree more! 😍
Jonny Diesel on guitar isnt to bad either . lol
When this song was released I was at the peak of both my John Farnham and Jimmy Barnes fandom, and I nearly had a bloody heart attack 🤣
The only comment I have is "ALWAYS DO BARNSY or FARNSY LIVE!"😉 they will reach in and touch your soul in quite a primal way. Now you have heard this maybe do yourself a favour and watch them do this live on Hey Hey It's Saturday. You will k ow you have the right video if their is a wierd looking ostrich puppet on the screen 🤣🤣🤣

Australia has watched on with baited breath. He’s got a long road ahead of him but he’s a fighter. PS live version of this is even better!
Bless his soul! I wish him all the best! I’ve heard that a few times now… I’m going to have to check it out 😅🤎
@@SoulSessionSundays If you want to be drop to your knees, blown away, check out the cover of The Beatles' "HELP live with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra :)
For pure additional entertainment, go watch JBLethal TV's reaction to Help live with MSO. I was cry-laughing as he looked liejk a kid at Christmas :)

Got to first see John in Little River Band in 1983 and again on their 1985 tour, two months before flying to Live Aid London!
All amazing!
Hard to think that song is 30 years old. Timeless. Jimmy lives about 20 minutes from me, we often see him around town. Nice guy. Johnny, well he's just a legend. Get well soon mate.
Greatest singers of all time
Our two Aussie's are brilliant!!!!!
And it's no surprise to Jimmy's and John's fans, that they are even better live.
Thank you for sharing.
Still a class video even after 40yrs
You should hear John Farnham sing black dog as his warm up song it’s amazing
These 3 gentlemen are the last of a dying breed
3 Australian legends combined in one out of this world song. Jimmy and John are living treasures and the guitarist is Diesel, himself a legend singer and of course guitarist.

Grew up with Jimmy and johnny. Soul deep and soul deeper.
I've just started the video and a few seconds in you're already excited. I'm thinking just you wait they havent even warmed up yet. Two of the greatest singers in Australia. Soul overload ..who would have guessed :)
EDIT: if you thought this studio version was good, you should check them out singing live, twice as good and even Deisel the guitar player gets in on the singing action.

@@SoulSessionSundays You REALLY are in for an experience. Mind blowing.
@@ginaferrari2116 I’ve reacted to this so you should defo check it out ❤️
Welcome to the rabbit hole. It's fun down here. Enjoy.
Wow!
Jimmy Barnes is a Scottish immigrant who suffered an extremely abusive childhood. He became the frontman of the legendary Australian rock band Cold Chisel, where he famously would get through a full bottle of Vodka on stage at every show.
After he left Chisel he became the biggest Aussie rock artist thoughout the 80s.
This song is Jimmy reinventing himself as a soul singer. And it ended up becoming his most successful album ever.
Well damnn …. Thank you for such beautiful insight … it’s greatly appreciated! 👏🏾❤️
Soul has no colour. These 2 great Aussie legends are incredible each in their own right. They can both sing anything from soul to heavy rock.
Their talent IS God given. Bless you 🙏
You get it! They are Australian Royalty! Thanks for this 👏
Nice reaction
welcome to the rabbit hole
all Aussie icons we haven't even scratched the surface as our female singers as good
Also we have some really good modern day male female singers as well most of our are singer song writers and produce their own music
You need to watch their live stuff if you thought that was good
you can pick anything with John Farnham and Melbourne symphony orchestra but he has 5 decades of hits
Does Beatles song (help) live they praised him for it
He's called the voice so watch the song (you're the voice) live
Back in black he covered of AC/DC live
Black dog he covered led zeppelin live
Amazing grace with back up singer vendetta and Lindsay fields live
Angels with other back up singer Lisa Edwards live
This shows you john's true personality
Only scratching the surface with these from John Farnham
As he sings every genre you can think of rock blues opera ballets anything
Same for Jimmy barnes live performances
anything live as well try Jimmy barnes and Joe bonamassa (Stone cold)
Jimmy barnes and Tina Turner simply the best
Working class man
Driving wheels
Many more hits
He was part of a band called cold chisel
First song is with one of the other band member ian moss
who is current singer and as good in his own right live performances
Bow River
When the war is over
Chior girl
Geogia on my mind
Them you have the guitarist you listen to with them
Name johnny diesel
He's a great singer as well look his music up as well
Good luck with list these are only a few of these guys
Jimmy recently put out a duet of "Soothe Me," with Dave from Sam and Dave. He has re-released for the 30th anniversary, of his album "Soul Deep" with a few extras.
See this live it's even better. Watch John Farnham live you will be blown away. Diesel on the guitar is amazing in his own right. Singer, songwriter. Also happens to be married to Jimmy Barnes's sister-in-law. Hence performing together. This lot get better as they get older too.
These 2 are so adored here in Australia, I have had the absolute privilege of seeing them both live many times over the years. Our dear John needs prayers and healing vibes right now. 💕💕
🙏🏽🤎🙏🏽
So I'm getting that for those of us that grew up with these guys we just completely took them for granted...
This song really does something to me too. I can listen to it over and over again. The USA gave the world Soul and Blues and Gospel and the world fell in love, and sang right back.
Barnsey and Farnsey are two of the world's greatest singers individually. And what is magical about both of them is that they are both amazing duetists who have collaborated with so many other artists. Barnsey in particular is so good at reigning in his powerhouse voice to let the other person shine too.
I think you would like Stone Cold in Love by Jimmy Barnes and Joe Bonamassa too.
Best of the best right here. Well over 3 octaves of range each, with incredible power, soul and grit. So glad that you enjoyed it :)
John can sing 6 octaves and to top it off he can sing with 2 octaves at once which is hardly heard of!! 😁
Great reaction. If you want to truly experience the awesomeness of John and jimmy, invest in a quality set of headphones. You will be blown away. Jimmy Barnes and Joe Bonamassa are a must watch if you love soul. Cheers from Oz, and get well soon, John.
Will do when the energy prices and petrol go down 😂😂😂😂
@@SoulSessionSundays Yeah, I don't think that's going to happen this century. 😢 Oh well. Loved your reaction.
You must these two legends live❤❤❤ It is so good they are finally getting world recognition. 🎉🎉🎉
You don’t just listen to these 3 (guitarist included -Diesel) your soul experiences them.

We are indeeddddd!! 🤎🙏🏽 Thank you so much! X
This is my first time watching your channel. At first I thought you didn’t like it and I felt my heart sink.
THEN I realised you were surprised and liked it.
John Farnham and Jimmy Barnes are legends in Australia. I’m just about to bat my half century and I can’t remember a time these men, with their incredible voices, weren’t in my life. Even two white fellas can have soul. 💝💝💝
They sure do!!!!! ❤️😅👏🏾
@@SoulSessionSundays Thank you so much for replying. It is greatly appreciated. Australians adore these men, including Diesel who does backing vocals and the guitar solo.
Most of us are very worried about John Farnham. He just had surgery for oral cancer and we won’t be receiving any updates until he has had reconstructive surgery. He is the sweetest man. I’m fortunate enough to have seen him perform live.
LOL! I LOVE this!! your reaction is sooo good!!! A. MAZE. ZING!! ❤ I freakin wish there were still men with this attitude around! LOL!
Thank you so much beautiful! I appreciate you for this lovely comment! Have a beautiful day! 😂❤️
It's from 1982 performance of Australian rock icon Jimmy Barnes, and the Australian 'voice' John Fareham with Jonny diesel on electric guitar and backing vocals. This is great Aussie 80s icons
Love love love your reaction
Also they are all down to earth, funny dads
Thank you! I defo get that impression x
Yeah check out John farnham singing help with the Melbourne symphony orchestra, old Beatles song slowed down with a twist live in Melbourne with 50 thousand crowd great video
Growing up listening to these 3 Aussie legends, I guess we take it for granted. But seeing reactions from people that are not familiar with them reminds me how iconic they are.
❤️🙏🏽
I think this is the best reaction I've ever seen and heard...... you obviously liked them... lol
Lovvvveeeeeddd them!!! Omg what a hugggeeeee compliment 😍 Thank you so much! x
Have a look at John Farnham live with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra.... it'll blow your mind !!
you found the honey pot of Australian music Jimmy & john & johnny diesel !!!
Just love it.
So much nostalgia
I need more of your energy in my life. Looking forward to watching other reactions from you 💛
The live performance is way better, Farnsey is magic, Barnsey & Farnsey together even more magical. Farnsey is no 1. You got a long journey with these two iconic Australian singers! Enjoy the ride!
Awesome reaction SSS Gets into your soul ...The guitarist is Johnny Diesel who is Jimmy Barns brother inlaw...they married sisters...In live version of this song he joins them in singing at the end...and the band stops playing they sing it A Capella...too good!. I'm off to watch your Stan Walker reaction I've just caught a glimpse of it lol...
I loved your reaction so much, thank you for sharing it! Welcome down the rabbit hole of Aussie music. Please react to John and Jimmy perform this live, always go the live version with any Australian artist.
Please react to John sing Help live with MSO and Jimmy singing River deep mountain high live.
When Jimmy and John get together, it’s big vocals for sure. Two Australian song book killers. Please review Jimmy Barnes and Joe Bonnamassa “ Stone Cold” Jimmy still knocking it out 30 yrs later.
Loved this reaction ✅ These 2 are legends in Australia. Jimmy put out a song earlier this year with Sam Moore (originally from 60’s duo Sam & Dave) called Soothe Me which just oozes soul and fun, you will love it, thats a promise 🙂
Best reaction vid yet.👍
Ahhhhh well I mean …. I will take that! Thank you kindly! 🥰
I lived in New Jersey for a while back in the sixties, this was the kind of music I remember on the local soul stations... means so much to me to hear people still singing these truly great songs, and that people still appreciate them... the really fine thing is that people are willing to open their hearts and let the soul come through...
Us Aussies love good music. Aussie pub rock bands are epic.
As an Aussie great review love it
Girl if you haven't yet you really need to watch Karise Eden sing It's a man's world. It will blow your mind.
Aussie legends all three. Best to listen to John & Jimmy live though. My favourite performances from John are from a concert with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra especially a cover of the Beatles song 'Help' and he's done Black Dog (Led Zeppelin) Granada (opera) soul & everything in between. Amazing talent, brilliant singer awesome human being. All our wishes go out to him for his recovery. Jimmy Barnes - Khe Sahn & Flame Trees & Bow River & When the War is Over with Cold Chisel & Stone Cold & numerous others from his soul repertoire. Tip of my tongue Diesel(Mark Lizotte. Great reaction. 💕
I love watching someone experience some of greatest Aussie talent for the 1st time. These guys have been part of the soundtrack to my life, and I feel blessed that we have such a depth of extraordinary musical talent here in Oz. Heal well soon John. John Farnham, Jimmy Barnes (both with and without band Cold Chisel) and guitarist Diesel have a huge catalogue for you to explore. You could check out the unique Matt Corby, Tash Sultana, The Tesky Brothers and the Waifs.....the list of Aussie talent is endless.
Legends of the Australian Music Industry. Aussie Rock Royalty. Jimmy, Johnny, and Mark are absolute icons. This song still gives me chills, even though it is over 30 years old now. John Farnham was the first concert I ever went to (in the mid 80s) and I have been a fan ever since. Jimmy is just as amazing and he always gives me goosebumps, no matter what he is singing. The bitter-sweet note to this is John Farnham has recently had cancer removed from his mouth, and it looks like his performing days are over. It breaks my heart to know of the new generation of fans who will never get to experience how electrifying he is in person.
Oh my goodness! Well I’m grateful that he has given us a legacy to follow! God bless him …. Hopefully all his well with him 🙏🏽🤎 understandable this song gives you chills … made me feel the exact same way! 😍
Jimmy Barnes, Johnny Diesel on guitar and a singer and our Golden Boy John Farnham. We have a lot of great singers in Australia that no one knew about. The difference is we listen to and watch everyone else.
John has one of the top voices in the world and I haven’t seen any genre he can’t sing including Opera. His range is huge, he is a showman, funny, kind and so loved. Always better live and he leaves it all on the stage. Watch him sing Help, live with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. The Beatles wrote it but John showed them how to sing it and I loved the Beatles. I am sure there are many artists afraid John would do a cover of their song and for a good reason.
Get well John because you really don’t want me to come and sing to you. My husband hides if I sing.
The ending of this message is everything 😂❤️ thank you!🙏🏽
Diesel great guitar 🎸 player but also lead singer and they are all still performing live 40yrs later. Although John Fareham is battling throat cancer. He's still the best voice of Australia ever. Barney still rocking
Both Aussie legends
The notes! lol. Loved this reaction!
😂😂😂😂 They blew me away! Thank you so much ❤️
Love your sound quality.
Thank you x
Could you react to Stone Cold by Jimmy Barnes and Joe Bonamassa. Jimmy will blow you're mind in this one.
If you like this then you're going to LOVE: Stone Cold (Jimmy Barns and Joe Bonamassa)
Yeah... There's a whole world to discover down the Jimmy Barnes and/or John Farnham rabbit holes
I might have to go exploring 😅😅😅
You need to hear the live concert version it is far more powerful and soulful also it sounds better with live instruments rather than recorded.
Omg sounds insane! 😍😍😩
I've seen both Jimmy and John live and they are both brilliant they are Australiant royalty, unfortunately John is battling cancer at the moment so we all wish him o much love.
Sending lots of love and prayers to him! 🙏🏽❤️
A simple thing living in Aus, it's a huge country with a lot of space where when you grow up here you are connected to the land. You should look up Yothu Yindi & his aboriginal music will help you understand how connected to the land the musician are...
I do believe this is the first time I’ve ever witnessed a true eargasm🤣 two Aussie legends at their best❤️💯🇦🇺 great reaction 🤩
listen to "Help" by John Farnham with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra
This is two of australias best never made it big on the world stage which was a crying shame as their voices are unforgettable I have been a big fan of cold chisel jimmys previous band which also has great tracks check them out
Enjoyed your reaction! They're legends!
One of them, Jimmy Barnes, is actually Scottish but has lived in Australia for many years. I have been enjoying both artists for many years. Look up the group Cold Chisel, Jimmy Barnes's original group.
He was born in Scotland but he has been an Australian citizen for decades. He doesn't consider himself Scottish so please don't be disrespectful by calling him something he isn't.
He moved to Australia when he was 5 years old. He is Australian.
🎉😂😅😊 good days
We Aussies tend to think the rest of the world has been living under a rock. We were raised on this calibre and better and the Pub Rock proving ground was notoriously unforgiving so only the real deal made it through. Enjoy.
They did this live on an Aussie TV show called Hey Hey It's Saturday and the video of that is even a bit more impressive...
