@@gametchanger Not sure if you read the comment about the female singer with John was an Ikette with Tina Turner. Here’s Venetta Fields, years ago, as an Ikette on the far right. ruclips.net/video/pn7B0P-eCEE/видео.html
Venetta Lee Fields (born 1941) is an American-born singer, musical theater actress and vocal coach. She was a backing vocalist for American and British rock and pop acts of the 1960s and 1970s, including Ike & Tina Turner, Pink Floyd (Wish You Were Here etc), Humble Pie, Barbra Streisand, Elkie Brooks, Neil Diamond, Steely Dan, and the Rolling Stones. After emigrating to Australia in 1982, she became an Australian citizen. She recorded or toured as a backing singer for Australian artists Richard Clapton, Australian Crawl, Cold Chisel, Jimmy Barnes, James Morrison and John Farnham. In 2002, Fields received the Australian Gospel Singer of the Year award.[1] In recognition of her achievements, Fields was inducted into the Buffalo Music Hall of Fame on September 29, 2005.[1] Been Johns backing vox with Lindsay Field (the guy in this vid) and Lisa Edwards for decades..
@ as d=seen on TV. Thank you for your post. John is a great guy. When I worked at Porsche Australia in the late 80’s he bought beers for the guys that serviced his car great bloke..
The way Venetta looks at John like a proud Mama. What I love most about this though isn’t even the stellar vocals from all 3. It’s the love and loyalty John has for his invaluable backing vocalists. What a phenomenal, lifelong relationships.
This is my favorite version of this classic gospel song, done to perfection. And notice John is standing meters back from the mic and John’s angelic voice resonates and comes through crystal clear.

John farnham is one of the best male singers in world. And he still delivers amazing vocals at the age of 72. He should have been more notised world wide.
Vanetta Fields & Lindsay Field singing with John are 2 of his long time back up singers. Lindsay is still with him. Vanetta has had her own long incredible career forever. His other long time back up singer is Lisa Edwards (not in this). John is my favorite singer of all time! He's a beautiful person inside & out! You should also check out Home Free's version of Amazing Grace with Peter Hollens. ruclips.net/video/7n145-J8ejg/видео.html
The lady(or as John calls her, the queen) is Vanetta Field, one of his back-up singers; the other gentleman is Lindsay Fields, another of his back-up singers. His other back-up singer is Lisa Edwards, although not in this performance has sang duets with John.
If you liked that, you should check out his performance of Mary's Boy Child and You'll Never Walk Alone from Carol's by candlelight. Since Christmas is at summer in Australia, our big thing is carols by candlelight concerts. They have big singers come up to perform Christmas carols, the audience is there holding carols to read the words of all the carols if you don't know them...you normally take a picnic along with you and its a great night out. 2 of the TV networks do a big show of it though, 1 on Christmas Eve night, coming from Melbourne and another done in Sydney a few nights earlier normally. Then each city and most suburbs in each city tend to have their own carols nights aswell...a lot of the Churches put them on..its a lot of fun. Anyway, this is from 1 of the shows he performed at several times, performing Mary's Boy Child, but there are several other Christmas carols he sung at them aswell..so its worth having a dig around! ruclips.net/video/x9uOgwgqt_8/видео.html
Yo great reaction bro. I met John here in Sydney in 2008 when I worked at the ritz Carlton hotel and he was so humble and just had a down to earth conversation with me, it was like I’d known him for years. He didn’t know me from a bar of soap but he asked me how my family was and was just so approachable. I have so much love for that man. God bless
Hi! Thank you for reacting to this! The lady singing is one of John’s back up singers! Her name is Venetta Fields! She is AMAZING! The gentleman is Lindsay Field and he is another backup singer! This is beautiful ! We sang this at my mum’s funeral! It will be15 years since she has been gone! Thankyou again! Happy New Year! Peace and Blessings from Australia.
Venetta and Lindsay are part of John 's touring and recording backup singers....incredible in their own rights. They are not preaching but just singing a great song.
The lady is Venetta Fields. She's been a backer for the likes of Aretha Franklin and countless Motown legends. She found her way Down Under and has been a backer for John since the 80's until her retirement where she does vocal coaching.
Loved this rendition of Amazing Grace by John! I have been to 6 of his concerts and they are by far the best ones I’ve been to. I remember watching this as it was simulcast live on TV. John is now 73 years old and he still sounds like this!! Amazing performer and great person all round.
Her name is Venetta Fields. He is Lindsay Field. "As a member of Boz Scaggs backing band, Fields toured Australia in 1978 and 1980. While in the country in the latter year she contributed backing vocals to Marc Hunter's (ex-Dragon) solo album, Big City Talk.[10] Back in the US she provided backing vocals for So Lucky (December 1981), by Renée Geyer - the Australian artist was then working in California.[11] Fields decided to relocate permanently to Australia in 1982, "I had all that experience and a good reputation but I felt like I was stuck in a stereotyped box... I needed to do something else and I had to get away to somewhere where I could start again.""
John wasn’t belting, he was singing and he can sing anything. Look for a video where he sings Opera with Anthony Warlow. Anthony is a stage singer, one of our very best. John and Olivia Newton John did a 3 month tour with Anthony after some really harsh cancer treatment. That is who John is and the other two.
Angels (sung with Lisa Edwards), Help, and When The War Is Over (this version: ruclips.net/video/EBo1cMumwBM/видео.html ) You have to forward through an initial bit of audience by-play and he starts at around 3:10 ) In my opinion, it's John's best vocal performance of this superbly moving song - he's about 54 years of age in this performance. Whatever you listen to, try a live version which is usually best.
His performance of his song “angels” in 2000 when he was a bit older singing with his back up singer Lisa Edwards ruclips.net/video/5_2NJRIdBO8/видео.html
His performance of his song “angels” is a must to check out to, here John is a bit older singing with his back up singer Lisa Edwards ruclips.net/video/5_2NJRIdBO8/видео.html
I'm not a christian but hearing John sing is probably the closest thing I can think of to a religious experience. Always happy to hear others enjoy his fantastic voice, you should check out his cover of Bridge Over Troubled Water. Also as a Christian, it might be interesting for you to react to Jesus He Knows Me by Genesis. Cheers
Venetta is amazing herself & i like how John showcases his back up singers, this was all about showing her off & giving her the exposure she deserved.. Brilliant..
Vanetta Fields and Lindsay Field (no relation) were John's backing singers for many years and you'll see them on his various video clips. His other regular backup singer is Lisa Edwards. Vanetta is an American who had a long and successful singing career supporting top performers in the States.
That's a cool opening, great work. I'm a little unfamiliar with this niche so it was quite refreshing to watch. Beautiful performance of an amazing song. Love seeing your enthusiasm while watching/listening. Nicely done review. 😊👍
You are a Christian who didn't know about these 3 singers doing AG? You must be young, because this is by far the best rendition of the great song and it's been around for a long time
Ahhh! Venetta Fields, John Farnham, and Lindsay Field. They have been with John for most of his career. Both are wonderful singers. (Just like Lisa Edwards). I have seen John and his incredible back ups a few times, and he is a total entertainer. Just love him. Wish him all the very best, in his battle with cancer xx
@@gametchanger If you want to see him really rip it , watch this ruclips.net/video/aaeKsidYfVk/видео.html It is full of Aussie legendary singers and musicians and it rocks. Another personal favorite is a touch of paradise, which he wrote for his wife Jill, and they are still together ruclips.net/video/1wTWNmDnDzQ/видео.html. In my opinion, you should watch John live, you get a better idea of his personality. And Blessings on you as well x
Vendetta Fields was 1 of Johns backup singers for many years. She also toured with Stevie Wonder (who John is a HUGE fan of) aswell as a lot of other amazing performers. Then Don Johnson there in the white suit 🤣,, no relation to Venetta, is Lindsay Fields and was a backup singer of Johns from the first album and tour after he left Little River Band, up until his today...well, the most recent of performances he had done, anyway...which I think would have been the firefight appeal just before Covid then struck the world. John has in turn also acted as backup singer on 1 or 2 tracks for Lindsay aswell, which is cool. John has always pulled the best singers and musicians to be part of his band. People that have careers in their own rights, whether solo or in a band..Like Jack Jones who was lead singer of Southern Sons aswell as guitar player, would tour with John purely just playing guitar... Richard Marx (Hazard, Right Here Waiting For You etc.) Became a big fan of Johns very early on...somehow picking up an Australian TV or radio station and hearing him. When he toured Australia, he met John,, wrote songs together...at least 4 tracks going on 1 particular album and he actually played piano for John, during a couple of concert...didn't sing a word (as far as I'm aware) was happy to just play piano and share the stage with John during the songs he had helped write. 1 song in particular that was aired on TV during an Aussie awards show (kinda like our Grammy Awards) was aired on the show with Richard Marx playing and can be found on RUclips. So, yeah...it just goes to show his greatness that all these artists with big careers in their own right are willing to take a step back to just play an instrument so they can share the stage with someone of Johns calibre! But anyway, yeah... vendetta Fields and Lindsay Field...or Venetian Field and Lindsay Fields...1 if them has the s and I forget who! 🤣
I'm catholic. I wouldn't say I'm a believer or a non believer. But this is beautiful. Being Australian ive seen it many times and it does get one thinking
Amen! Thanks for being transparent Karen I truly appreciate it! I definitely recommend reading the Bible and going to the source. God is amazing and this songs lyrics hit to the core. God Bless!
Hi. Some more John Farnham songs you will love are. = When the war is over the last time Melbourne. 2003. = it’s a long way to the top. First time. With the Melbourne symphony orchestra. Also another Aussie great. = jimmy barnes and joe bonamassa doing = stone cold.
G’day mate, thank you so much for playing Amazing Grace, John, Vanetta & Lindsay sing their hearts out in this hymn & do a great job. I have requested a couple of times that you play John’s song We’re No Angels, I know that you are extremely busy but please you will not be disappointed. God bless 🙏
Absolutely I'll definitely make sure to do it. Thank you so much for the patience too I have put a ton on my plate but I am praying through what God wants me to do next. God Bless!
@@gametchanger Aaaw you are so sweet. I am looking forward to your reaction to the song, it is very powerful. I hope God helps you clear your plate. Take care & God Bless you too!
@@gametchanger You should do him and another long time back up singer Lisa doing - Angels (He is older in this video) ruclips.net/video/5_2NJRIdBO8/видео.html
John has an amazing voice but he is also known for his social conscience Tour of duty concert for our troops The concert for Rwanda Concert for hay droguht relief And at 71 years old fire fighters 2020 with brian may and olivia newton john Plus in his earlier year anti drug campaign Only women bleed for the democratic violence
As you say very powerful song beautifully performed by John, Vanetta Fields and Lindsay Field (no relation). Maybe the best version I’ve ever heard. Don’t share your religious beliefs but do respect your reactions to John the Voice Farnham. He is an amazing talent largely unrecognised anywhere else in the world…and I think that’s fine with him! This was performed at a Carols by Candlelight, an Aussie tradition, back in 80s. Don’t forget it’s stinking hot but John gives his all….
Great review, John never fails to entertain. If you liked this, you need to check out his acapella version of Stevie Wonders "Loves In Need" with his entire band and backing singers. ruclips.net/video/9m8-dc6FlCI/видео.html
Ok, Vanetta had to leave the US due to the oppressive, racist, hypocritical and insane christian nationalism movement in the US. She is happy, respected and adored in Australia. We have very little of that BS here. As a devoted anti-theist I can appreciate the beauty, raw power, emotion etc of this song but never forget this is an African/American song written by an Englishman who was heavily involved in the slave trade in America. Of course, slavery is endorsed and openly encouraged in biblical mythology, which Americans still, to this day, follow blindly in their ignorance. Bronze age mythology is only really openly endorsed in the US. Guns and god rock...............................................

Not sure if you read the comment about the female singer with John was an Ikette with Tina Turner. Here’s Venetta Fields, years ago, as an Ikette on the far right.

Can't believe he never had any formal vocal training... Pure God given gift.
It's amazing and I agree 100%. God bless and thank you for the comment!
The trio were so inspiring singing Amazing Grace. Loved them all. A special best wishes to John and hope his health improves❤
Amen and I'll continue to pray for him and his help. God Bless!
He is the greatest performer ever, he is a bloke you would love to hang out with so down to earth. Plz more John reactions keep them coming.
Thank you for the comment and absolutely there will be a ton more to come! God Bless!
I met him once after a gig in London once. Great gig and a lovely guy, just as you’d imagine.
Sounds like theres a 100 person choir and not just the three amazing singers ❤
Amen amen! This performance was one of a kind. God Bless!
I love this song when it is played on bagpipes. It starts of with a lone piper, and when the mass pipes and drums come in, it penetrates my soul.
That was the version that was played at my mother’s funeral, 15 years ago. Still brings me to tears.
This is my favorite version of this classic gospel song, done to perfection. And notice John is standing meters back from the mic and John’s angelic voice resonates and comes through crystal clear.

Only women bleed for the democratic violence
a lovely song written by a British Slaving ship Captain... and then a ardent abolitionist.....
id love John to appear on Americas got talent as a nobody and see if he gets through.
Hi John listen to Keith Green Amazing Grace - sung like you have never heard it before
As you say very powerful song beautifully performed by John, Vanetta Fields and Lindsay Field (no relation). Maybe the best version I’ve ever heard. Don’t share your religious beliefs but do respect your reactions to John the Voice Farnham. He is an amazing talent largely unrecognised anywhere else in the world…and I think that’s fine with him! This was performed at a Carols by Candlelight, an Aussie tradition, back in 80s. Don’t forget it’s stinking hot but John gives his all….
Ahhh no this was from his Whispering Jack concert, not from Carols by Candlelight. :)
@@shoresaresandy he sang amazing grace at a regular concert! Are you sure?
@@MrNeilandrew yep here is the link, ruclips.net/video/UHCO-_GSLDU/видео.html 50:30 is when the song starts
@@shoresaresandy I stand corrected! Thank you I got that one wrong.
@@MrNeilandrew all good. :)
Billy an Vanessa Fields Been With John 4 ever
There is backing singers
Great review, John never fails to entertain. If you liked this, you need to check out his acapella version of Stevie Wonders "Loves In Need" with his entire band and backing singers. ruclips.net/video/9m8-dc6FlCI/видео.html
HI please react to Gary Valenciano cover of Spain thank you.
Looking like Steven seagal 😅
Bhahaha I always try to have a little fun. Thanks for sharing and God Bless!
Ok, Vanetta had to leave the US due to the oppressive, racist, hypocritical and insane
christian nationalism movement in the US. She is happy, respected and adored in Australia. We have very little of that BS here. As a devoted anti-theist I can appreciate the beauty, raw power, emotion etc of this song but never forget this is an African/American song written by an Englishman who was heavily involved in the slave trade in America. Of course, slavery is endorsed and openly encouraged in biblical mythology, which Americans still, to this day, follow blindly in their ignorance. Bronze age mythology is only really openly endorsed in the US. Guns and god rock...............................................
