Thank you Sam, Respect for your words. Don't be afraid of going down John Farnham's rabbit hole. Stunning.....just....Stunning !
John is the GOAT, I have never doubted that. I have never seen better or even as good. He can stand next to another great singer, and he turns it down to be respectful.
Always go for a live performance with John Farnham!
Thanks for reacting to John...but you know he belongs to us and no one will ever better him!!!!
I loved that you played the whole song before commenting. Loved your reaction! John Farnham is a legend!
When we attend a John Farnham concert, we become part of the performance. We, the audience, are the special instrument that John has available to him, and he uses our voice like the Maestro that he is. Magic!
First he jokes around and tells us not to join in as we will ruin the whole bloody thing 😂
What a beautiful descriptor, and so true.
Beautifully said 👏
Well said. John feeds off his audience, a born entertainer.❤️
Yep you're right. Australians have loved Farnham for decades.
This cover of The Beatles song was actually listened to by John Lennon who said "now, *that's* the way this song was meant to be sung". Fact.
Other great voices in Oz are Matt Corby with his original wonderful song "Brother".That'll blow your mind! Also Tina Arena, Sia.
Wow! & Tina Arena, Sia
Jess Mauboy, Guy Sebastion with his original (Battle Scars) was a hit around the world, Neil Finn of Crowded House ,& so many more.

Best voice on the planet !
Thank you for sharing this - I saw this concert and I was on an endorphin high for a week afterwards! Take into account this was the last song in a 2-3 hour concert.
You probably know by now that Farnsey is recovering from recent mouth cancer surgery where half his jaw was removed. Get well soon Farnsey, we love you!❤️
John released this version in 1980 & after 42 years I`m amazed at how people are only just discovering his music. Welcome aboard the Farnsey train. 😊
Thank you for your great reaction and appreciation for our phenomenal Aussie Treasure, John Farnham! Like many other Australians, I have loved John for 50+ years. Yes he is definitely the GOAT! Please watch many more of his vast repertoire of hit songs, covering many music genres.🎶💕 You will love them all!
And THAT is why John Farnham is a LEGEND in Australia. He isn't a worldwide MEGASTAR because he chooses NOT to be one. He made a decision to stay close to home for his family. Australians are blessed because of that. If you are a religious person, please pray for John. He's recovering from surgery.
John Farnham is a legend! His rendition of "Help" is the best version of the song I've heard so far.
And even John Lennon agrees this is the best version ever.
@@dhiquobgnaloo He said it was the way he wanted The Beatles to record it. He actually did a slow version himself much later.
@@mssuziquzi it couldn't have been 'that' much later considering John Lennon was assassinated only about 5 months after John Farnham released his version.
@@devilsadvocate2548 I watched a documentary on TV last year which showed John Lennon singing a slow version of Help. He was just by himself at home at The Dakota when it was recorded. You're right, it would have been not long before he died. He obviously saw the Farnham version and liked it better than the Beatles original, which he referred to as being Preppy..
@@mssuziquzi so why say 'much later' then when you obviously knew based off of watching a documentary that it was in reality only a matter of months?
Charisma, in abundance like no other.
Hi there Stan, I just joined up after watching your reaction - I'm a 57yr old from Australia who's been in the audience 17 times in my life. From here, you MUST listen to "John Farnham and Jimmy Barnes LIVE - When Something Is Wrong With My Baby"....It will blow you away. I'm sticking with you to watch you go down the Aussie rabbit hole, because now you've started, you're in for a real treat. Buckle up and get ready for the ride Stan, coz this is gonna be a doozy. Hugs from Perth Australia xox
Looks like a rock star sounds like a rock star!
Is a rock star
Some of us just look like rocks, Rick!
More and more people are getting to hear what we grew up with and it's great to see there faces when they hear him sing for the 1st time
A Masterclass of musical collaboration between John, the band, the backing group and the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. The single piano instrument backing, the sax solo and then the accompaniment of the Orchestra dropping in and out 👏👏👏👏👏
He is The GOAT 🇦🇺👍🎼🎵
This man is so adored here in Australia. I have had the privilege of seeing John live many times over the years and he never disappoints. He is also the most wonderful, humble & funny guy. 💕
Our Farnsey can sing so many genres, pop,Soul, Jazz, Opera and it just goes on. He has been singing for us Aussies for decades. He is the guy next door type and appeals to all ages. But it is more than his outstanding talent that draws us, it is his personality, his jokes and his relationship with his fans that make him so popular and loved.
And his philanthropy in caring for others, friends, colleagues and family
You are so colourful. Thank you for your reactions. As we would say Down Under, good on you cobber!! We are hearin u... 👏🌺
Farnsey is a legend here. I am 58 now and I remember when I was 10 years old, I went with my then-15 year old sister to Her Majesty's Theatre in Melbourne to see him perform in the musical play Pippin (he was in the title role). We met him afterwards in the carpark and he was as down-to-Earth as everyone knows him to be.
"Have a banana!" Johnny! Love for your recuperation from surgery for mouth cancer.
Welcome to the world of the voice,what you got here is the entree the rest of this concert is the main course.John is loved in Aussie and we’re praying for a full recovery, so we can hear that voice again John is best in live performances. He’s a great performer on stage 😊
The 2 other Farnesey songs to showcase his obscene level of talent I'd say is playing to win and angels. Both live performances, angels live in 2000 is my fave. One high energy, one gentle and angelic, you can probably guess which one haha. Barely an Australian alive that's loved anywhere near as much as this bloke, genuinely as good a human as he is singer.
Unless you've heard the original, it's hard to comprehend how much better he made this Beatles classic. A masterclass in audience involvement and musical excellence - something you'll find in all of his live work. And now he's "a bit crook" and we're wishing him a speedy recovery.
This is John Farnham singing "Help" the way the Beatles did. ruclips.net/video/4ZwLOlen_TI/видео.html
Yes, we're all here for Farnsey, wishing him all the very best with all our love which goes with that, get well mate 💞🇦🇺
I just wanted to point out I'm here before Dr_KAP. Cheers.
John took control of the audience and the orchestra. One of the best live vocal performances ever!
John Farnham is the G.O.A.T! 110% for sure. You should do It’s A Long Way To The Top(if you wanna rock n’ Roll) from that same concert Classic Jack! Highly recommend it
All the best to John in his recovery.
GREAT reaction. You have worked it out. He is loved by all generations. His charm and amazing voice surpasses the generation gap. Even in his 70's as a surprise guest of Cold Play, he would have a huge 160k expo crowd of 20 somethings singing along to and knowing the words to his songs. I have had the great privilege of going to many great Farnsey concerts over the years. Without doubt the best performer I have ever seen live. You come away floating on clouds.
Definatley GOAT worthy.
You've seen a great Anthem, a soul wrenching Ballad...now it's time to check out Rock Legend singing his version of ACDC classic.. It's a Long Way to the Top ...from thos same concert with the Melbourne Symphony Ochestra...
Stan, you've listened to John Farnham sing an anthem and a ballad- now there's only twenty plus styles/genres to go...Have a happy and amazing listening time to John doing the rest.
The smile on your face says it all 🇦🇺❤️
Faarrrrnnntastic!
Great reaction! John is G.O.A.T, in my opinion! Always has been, always will be! You have a long journey with John Farnham. You should do John performing AC/DC cover of It’s A Ling Way To The Top(if you wanna rock N’ Roll) from that same concert, Classic Jack!
You should try John singing Amazing Grace with Venetta Field and Lindsay Fields Live.
John has such a wide audiance, he has been singing since 1966!!! Love him!!!!!!!
That was his last song of a 3hr concert.
Playing to Win from the same concert
You have unlocked the GOAT. Have fun!
Now you know why he is called THE VOICE. He is the ultimate singer and performer. Any live performance by him is always fantastic. Check out his performance of When Something is Wrong With My Baby with Jimmy Barnes.
I love the live performance of this with Diesel backing them up!
From the same concert, "You're The Voice," he also has hits from the 60's on look out for his B&W "Georgia". He sings Soul with Jimmy Barnes in "When Something is Wrong With My Baby." the best recording imo is on our "Hey, Hey, it's Saturday show" with a pink Ozzy Ostrich on the thumbnail. He sings opera on the concert called the main event with Anthony Warlow, song is called "Granada," then sings with Olivia Newton-John, "Please don't ask me," from the same concert. he sang with Ray Charles, with Tom Jones, and with Celine Dion, among others.
Yes definitely `When Something Is Wrong With My Baby` is a must. 👍😄
So true, thank you. You’ve hit almost all my favourites. I’d only add "It's a long way to the top" from the same concert as this one. I love the musical battle!

Hi from Australia
You really should listen to John sing Amazing Grace with Lyndsay and Vanetta
Next up is When something Is Wrong With My Baby with Jimmy Barnes, live. Not only will you be blown away but you will be introduced to another Aussie legend. Barnsie
And Diesel!!!! ❤❤❤❤
Hes not called the voice 4 nothing xxbless ya 🇦🇺
If you haven't already. listen to Bridge Over Troubled Water 1979...stunning...we all love JF so much.
Very good song that one Jen! Had to comment saying Angels and Playing to win as my faves, I scrolled and went hold on... I know her Haha
His 1979 cover of Bridge Over Troubled Water is phenomenal. His vocal range is huge
Welcome to the rabbit hole. There is a reason we believe John is one of the Greatest of All Time singers. Listen to When Something is wrong with my Baby then compare that to Gethsemane and Black Dog.
Watch him sing a long way to the top with same orchestra and watch the respect they give him by having fun with it because thats johns personally
Many songs to come
Farnham totally steals this song. Epic performance.
My boiiiii!!!!!
Also watch him and Olivia Newton-John singing " Please don't ask me" They were both raised in Melbourne Australia and have been good friends for years ruclips.net/video/2uV_tZODfK8/видео.html
You’d want to check out his version of When the War is Over. I think the video has 720p in the title - that’s the best one.
Nice one, Stan. 👍👍 Try his concert version of “Two Strong Hearts” next. You can find it here on RUclips under the title “John Farnham - Two Strong Hearts (High Quality)” uploaded by user eXDax.
Ooooooh boi! Can't wait for you to listen to When Something is Wrong with my Baby (with Jimmy Barnes), Gethsemane (from Jesus Christ Superstar), Black Dog (sound check), Angels (with his long time backup vocalist Lisa Edwards), Reminiscing (with The little river band)... not only does he have an incredible voice, but in any genre. Mind blowingly good. 🤯
add in Granada with Anthony Warlow from The Main Event for some Opera
If you like John Farnham check out Jimmy Barnes 👍👍👍👍
This is a Beatles cover song, it's a different arrangement
Not bad considering that was at the end of a 3 hour concert. We have another Aussie legend Jimmy Barnes who is brilliant to hear. There is a song called 'When something is wrong with my baby' that is sung as a duo with John Farnham and Jimmy Barnes that you might be interested in. ruclips.net/video/ihsfx1LuoKc/видео.html
Look up Saidie the cleaning lady… that song put him on the map waaaayyyy back
John is an Aussie legend, he is also loved just as much over in New Zealand. His vocal range is insane with that grit he brings in when needed. He has such a powerful voice you'll see him with the mic away from his mouth and still you will hear him clear as. The best way to listen to him is live, he loves interacting with his fans and getting the involved and he throws in a bit of comedy as well. Here are some live performances I think you'll enjoy.
You're The Voice ruclips.net/video/6m2m_9Uijso/видео.html, When The War Is Over ruclips.net/video/BekbvlLzMWc/видео.html, Thats Freedom ruclips.net/video/JWjtlMBl3Xo/видео.html, Two Strong Hearts ruclips.net/video/tqaMHMooiEU/видео.html, Angels ruclips.net/video/5_2NJRIdBO8/видео.html, Blow By Blow ruclips.net/video/Z4GipykgGI0/видео.html, Reasons ruclips.net/video/X4b5CYJz_lM/видео.html,. And you have to check this duet with another Aussie icon Jimmy Barnes Something Is Wrong With My Baby ruclips.net/video/ihsfx1LuoKc/видео.html.
Just some of his hits there is plenty more. Hope this keeps you entertained for a while. This is just my opinion but John has the best voice anyone will hear just the range, the grit, the control, simply amazing. Another thing with this legend is he can sing any genre of music from slow ballads, soul to rock.
Great reaction. Thanks! Hard to know what to suggest next as there is so much to choose from in his highlights reel. Perhaps a change of genre (he does them all) and watch one of his ballads "ANGELS" performed with one of his regular backing singers Lisa Edwards (ruclips.net/video/5_2NJRIdBO8/видео.html)? He a bit older and shows his personality. Whatever you choose next, make sure it's a live performance.
John doesn't bring the fire. John IS the fire. His covers of Led Zep's "Black Dog" ruclips.net/video/F2Yi6TVi-sU/видео.html and AC DC's "Long way to the Top" ruclips.net/video/73X_z_zW4Sg/видео.html will blow you away.
Ive seen john farnham several times when he was lead singer with little river band and also with his own band touring the whispering jack albumn easily the best singer ive ever seen but more importantly a legend of a human being
Yes, he went overseas to the US as lead in Little River Band but he was so homesick and missing Jilly, as he calls his wife of more than 48years now, and their two young sons, he said "stuff it, I'm going home!" and he's not been overseas since, however after that he hit rock bottom and literally lost everything, his Manager and best mate Glen Westley and wife Gaynor mortgaged their family home to fund the Whispering Jack tour which was a huge success for the four of them. Farnsey has just had a cancerous tumour and half his jaw removed and most likely won't sing again, and Glen died around the same time as Olivia Newton John, another lifelong and best friend of Farnsey's, in fact they both appeared on TV in their first public appearances on Brian Henderson's show as did the The Brothers Gibb.
For all his talent, it's the man we love and will always back him, he's a part of all our lives and early memories, he's in our DNA, he's a mate in every sense of the word, in Australia, he is The Voice! 💞🇦🇺
@@cbisme6414 yeah thanks for that long reply im an aussie too , definately love john farnham i pray he comes through his illness. 🙂🙏🏻✝️
