      They are his backup singers, Linsey Field, Venetta Field & Lisa Edward’s. As others have said this is a main fundraising event, held in Melbourne to raise $ for the vision impaired and it’s done every year.

    One of the nice things about our non-winter Christmas in Australia is the ability to hold big outdoor concerts. Obviously, this big Carols by Candlelight in Melbourne is televised but most towns would hold some version of the same thing (on a much smaller and less grand scale of course).

    Carols by Candlelight is an institution here in Australia, originating in the 1930's. It started being televised in 1970. It's a charity event raising funds for children and young people with vision impairments and the some of the best of the best donate their time to perform.
    John performed at Carol's many times over the years and was always the highlight of the show..

    Because it’s summer for us most places have an outdoor Carols by Candlelight concert in the lead up to Christmas. The two biggest are in Melbourne and Sydney which are televised (nationally?). It’s a lovely family event and one of my favourite Aussie xmas traditions…
    Most of our chrissy traditions come from elsewhere but this one is ours…

    Carols by candle light is an Australian tradition held Christmas Eve at the Sidney Myer music bowl in Melbourne Victoria. It’s been going on ever since I can remember and I’m over 50. As you’ve seen artists are invited to perform the carols and it use to be a great honour to be invited to sing there, you know you’d made it if you were invited.
    I haven’t watched in a number of years but it use to be a fundraiser for a charity for the blind.
    My parents would let me stay up and watch this in my PJ’s before going to bed to wait for Santa. Great memories.

    Thanks for your reaction and analyst of our John. He is just amazing. I've been to a couple of Carols by Candlelight where he's been singing. He's always the highlight of the show for me. I've seen him singing You'll Never Walk Alone several times over the years. He always sings it with such passion and conviction and gives me goosebumps all over my body. There's no one else in the world quite like our goat. He's the ultimate best of the best. Merry Christmas, Nina.

This version of “you’ll never walk alone” is so majestic and I think the best version of this huge song I’ve ever heard. John puts everything into this, powerful with so much passion and emotion send shivers down your spine and gives you goosebumps. You you Nina looking gorgeous as ever. Merry Christmas to you.

    The Sydney Myer Music Bowl, Carols By Candelight has been going since 1938. It never missed a year. Even during the war.
    Even during the pandemic they still televised it despite having no people there to watch.
    It is an outside event in a huge bowl, the stage is permanently undercover in a giant trumpet shaped roof.
    The reverberating sound is actually phenomenal. Been there a few times with my wife when we were younger.
    Many bands have gone there and scoffed when they first saw it till the sound crew got them to stand up the very back of the bowl area and then played their music and stunned them silent.

Love hearing you explain the technicalities of the vocals & musical arrangements - makes me appreciate John & his loyal back-ups Lindsay Field, Vanetta Fields and Lisa Edwards all the more! Carols by Candlelight is a Christmas Eve tradition in Melbourne, televised live and with a huge crowd in attendance. Being summer it's usually a lovely mild evening for families to enjoy. And John was always a highlight. Merry Christmas 🎄

    Nina, apparently there are certain notes and chords that can be played that induce emotion. The music factory in the USA which churned out much pop music had that worked out. John Farnham also sang this song for the Aussie army troops and the people of East Timor/Timor Leste at a huge outdoor concert at the liberation of that country from Indonesia. It's on a heart-warming video on You Tube.

    I love Carols by Candlelight. I used to go to the ones put on by schools……since I don’t live near a capital city, but I haven’t been for a while. There is one televised every year on TV though. I don’t think they use actual candles anymore due to fire risks, but can use mobile phone camera lights.

    John sung this song for them you can see on you tube it beautiful version
    With all the military singing along
    Yes carols are hughe in Australia and televised as well
    Most states hold them and generally out doors in our parks and venues
    It's one of the things about Australian x mas it hot so normally beautiful night temperatures
    Yes they are all candles everyone takes or buys one and think it raises money for charities
    As nice as this is I think the military one has even more passion in it if at all possible
    Merry x mas to you and your family friends in coming weeks

    Hi Nina,
    I know you most likely will not see this comment, but if you ever have the chance, I would absolutely love to see you react to another performance from Carols by Candlelight, Silvie Paladino singing O Holy Night at the 2012 Carols (the one with the yellow/gold dress). The emotion in the song, is immeasurable in my opinion!
    Another performance I would absolutely LOVE to see someone react to is Queenie Van de Zandt singing Candyland, from a theatre show called Smoke and Mirrors. She plays the bearded lady at a circus, and the song depicts the struggles of having that be your only identifier, and not being seen as an actual person.
    Thank you so much for your reactions, they make me smile, and I love the mathematical/analytical aspect of your reactions.

David Campbell is Jimmy's first son, but David wasn't told he was his father for many years as Jimmy was, i think, only 16 at the time. This performance by Jimmy and David is special.

  • @r.fairlie7186
    @r.fairlie7186 День назад

    Nina, you were very complimentary about the piano arrangement. I think at that time it would have been Chong Lim who became John’s musical director after David Hirschfelder. Both are great musicians but the style here sounds more like Chong. David was in the concert that featured the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. He also won a BAFTA for his work on the movie “Shine”. Chong was the MD for John’s concert at the Sydney Opera House and also for the last Commonwealth Games. PS. This was a really positive review to watch. I’m not normally enthusiastic about Christmas but this time you’ve put me in the mood! 🎉 🤗

      You'd be amazed at the number of musicians that are good at maths and maths people that are good at music. (There was a local band and all of them were also doctors.) Music is based on maths. When I was studying music (at a low level) I used maths to help me. Spiritually, music is based upon the sacred number seven. Once I picked up and checked out a thick book on the spirituality of music in a New Age bookstore. The information was mind-boggling ! Most information in it was musically far beyond my limited understanding.
