Does any other Aussie get the urge every now and then to binge watch reactions to Help and You're the voice, duos with Jimmy Barnes etc?. It happens to me it seems every couple of months, especially the Melbourne Symphony concerts. Of course, Farnham has such a great voice, I don't mind much.
Lol it's one of my fav things to watch on RUclips hahahaha 🤣🤣🤣🤣 it's gold to watch their eyes pop out of their head ... The man has to be the biggest underrated (on a world scale) voice ever ... He in my opinion has the best voice iv ever heard he's angelic
Yes! That is his voice, I have worked on several shows with John from early 80's - early 90's. He is a national icon in Australia! A very genuine, down to earth bloke with very little ego, he will talk to anyone from stars to crew members with no pretence. What you see is what you get. Cheers and thanks!
Micko this comment is so true on many levels! He is honestly THE nicest guy in the industry... And I must say I'm a bit jelly that you got to work with him and his amazing team (lol)
You will notice he doesn't need to hold the microphone close to his mouth. Yes that is his voice and he is an absolute legend in Australia. He loves his audience and they love him. He is "The Voice" and that is a song that will last forever. Thanks for the reaction to this most genuine and wonderful Australian singer.

John is an AMAZING guy with ZERO ego. He ALWAYS had best of arrangers,band & backup singers & ALWAYS grounded & shared his success with ALL just like David Byrne did all his band. One my favvy John's songs ' LIFTED UP BY ANGELS ' John & ALL band elevated the human spirit in soooo many ways thru. his GOD given talent WE ALL LOVE you John & indebted to you bro '🙏
John Lennon said this was the best rendition of Help ever recorded, and how he wanted it to be recorded originally by the Beatles, however the record label overrode his wishes of a slow version and released it in faster tempo.
We definitely missed out here in England when John emigrated to Australia aged 10. This man has one of the finest voices to ever bless this planet. He should be revered in the same way Freddie Mercury, Steve Perry and Jimi Jamison are IMO
He's Big over there tho "You're the Voice" was a UK Top 10 Smash Hit In 1987 it Reached #6 On the Chart and Stayed there at #6 for 3 Months.... and Some of his other Songs were Popular Not as Famous as You're the Voice But they did do okay so Over there in England Hes Pretty Big ❤😊
@@traviscarlson6718 Indeed...I think we've discussed this on another video lol. I made my parents buy me You're The Voice, it was my first record as a really young kid. I had older relatives (£10 poms 😆) who left England the same time as John did and they would bring his records etc over from Melbourne for me. I meant more the fact that we missed out on the amount of live concerts. I loved him performing at the Princes Trust Rock Gala in 1989 though, he totally blew everyone away....as usual. Anyways, he has always been my favourite and the fact he is a beautiful human being too is a bonus.❤ P.s Take care in Aus mate, hope things get better soon, lockdowns are hard. We've only just come out of ours after the best part of 15 months indoors.
@@lynseycstormster4689 Aww Yess John Did Do Concerts Over there in the 80s he was on TOP OF THE POPS in 1987 and He did a concert idk where but i know he did a Concert After he Was on TOP OF THE POPS he did a Concert and it held 45,000 People although i could be wrong But Apart from those 2 Things He did in the 80s ur right he never did Large scale Sell out Tours as he did in other parts of the World like in Germany and Australia and other parts of the World tbh i think you can find the vid on RUclips In 1987 when he was in Germany doing a Tour There He had a Sell out Concert that held 2 Million People and Everyone knew the words to You're the Voice, Pressure Down, HELP, and Ofc he preformed Sadie Then he went on to Sweden Denmark Even did a Small Gig In Ireland in 1989 i think that was the Prince's trust And dude Everyone Knew the words to You're the voice Because he made the Audience join in and they were Like "WERE ALL SOMEONES DAUGHTER WERE ALL SOMEONES SON HOW LONG CAN WE LOOK AT EACH OTHER DOWN THE BARREL OF A GUN" Thats how Famous he Was He even did a Very Small Concert In Ontario Canada When You're the Voice Broke Records By Becoming the First Australian Single of that Year to Make Canada's Top 20 So the Dude is known all over the world brother ....and thanks my dude I dont live in Australia im in New Zealand but we Have been in Lockdown recently etc But yeah its hard for all of us
I’ve seen John live 5 times over 22 years. His concerts are ALWAYS like this. Us non-singers can’t talk for 3 days after one of his shows. And he’d go from a venue like this, to my home town where the biggest room held 2000 people, and bring exactly the same energy.

Popular music REAL blessed Uncle Sam🇺🇸 gave 🌏 'THE KING ' / Brits 🇬🇧 Freddie Mercury/Au🇦🇺 The VOICE John Farnham REAL int. thing why John never became as HUGE overseas is coz HE CHOSE TO STAY IN Au.🇦🇺 He had cupla 'look sees' in US wirth LRB & as solo artist postSadie in UK But the chose to remain HUGE 🐡 in a small pond & restrict his career to Au🇦🇺 and thats one of reasons we LOVE John sooo much !! Dont think he was that driven to want more than what he ALREADY had in Au🇦🇺
Yes, that's his amazing voice. He is/was an extraordinary entertainer and also, like Guy Sebastian, a magically nice bloke too. Nobody has ever said a negative word against him in 45 years. He's a very beloved man in Oz. That smile at the beginning of that concert was him to a tee. He adored his audiences and we adored him. John Farnham concerts were some of the very best I've ever been to.
And I shook his hand! It was at one of the Sydney concerts at the Entertainment Centre. At the time I was the only one at the stage. In that handshake I saw and felt a gentle, warm, human being. This is a great artist who gives his all when he sings,110%! Unfortunately John has had a cancer scare with a cancer being removed from his jaw and us Aussies are praying for his health to return. 😢🙏❤️🇦🇺
David Hirschfelder orchestrated this and John Farnham has been singing this arrangement of the Beatles Help since the 80's. David Hirschfelder was nominated for an Oscar in 1997 for the film Shine. This was filmed in 1989 at the Melbourne Tennis Centre
He doesn't impact us 'just for a moment'. He has been doing this for 50 plus years. You are seeing greatness, and I and just about every Australian love him. Yes that is his voice.
The quality of Australian musicians is absolutely outstanding. Most International famous artists are literally shocked by this discovery. We have so many famous artists who have risen to the top of the world! Our sound studios and engineers are world class. The Orchestra the same.
no no no no, no matter what the crowd was like, John always put a 100% into a performance, that was his respect for his fans! legend! this was the last song of a two hr concert!
One of the best male singers of all time. He should have been more notised world wide. My absolutly favorite live performence with him is from a show called the last time. Its from 2003. The song is called ,when the war is over . His vocal performence is from another planet. He still delivers amazing vocals at the age 71.
I was at one of the John Farnham Whispering Jack concerts in Melbourne in 1987 with my sister and a few friends. The video brings back so many amazing memories, but it's nothing compared to seeing the man live in concert! Thanks for appreciating one of our Aussie National Treasures
This Man continues to have meaning on Australians. As a singer, I get what you're saying. And yes, that is his voice. He is The Voice in Australia. He is probably one of the nicest people you'll ever meet.

Did you realise that this is a Beatles song? But our John OWNS IT!! he is known in Australia as The Voice and there is no better performer or better loved entertainer than John. He is talented, humble and a good all around nice bloke. Pretty handsome too! Also check out his other videos with singers and especially Jimmy Barnes.💋
It makes me a very proud Australian to see you smile watching Johnny Farnham. His songTouch of Paradise was my bridal dance. He is one of the best in Australian music. Your watching a video of him in his earlier career BUT he can still belt out his songs just like he used to. He’s awesome.
Welcome to one of the all time great voices, PERIOD. As a singer and appreciator of amazing vocalists who are also consummate performers, it has been a privilege growing up with Farnsey as the soundtrack of my childhood. And he’s still,phenomenal now.
Hey thanks for viewing and I really appreciate your comment that's very nice of you Please make sure you subscribe so we can stay in touch. “I hope you really like it. Stay in touch and let me know“
That is his natural sound, he has a unique voice. He always introduced his whole band. Farnsey has sang with Ray Charles, Celine Dion and many more. He is the consummate entertainer. Thanks for showcasing Aussie talent, we have so much here.
That is his voice. He is just amazing. I’m Australian and watching these reactions has made me revisit this amazing artist. He’s 70 mow and still sings. He’s brilliant and so down to earth. World class ❤️🇦🇺
That's his natural singing voice. Farnham is a pop/rock singer though he has a theatrical background which might explain the high range and operatic tone. This is prime Farnham and probably his best live vocal in my opinion. There are so many more great performance to be reviewed.
John Farnham with the Melboune Symphony Orchestra was one of his best concerts. The song arrangements were great and were performed beautifully by all the musicians and singers. Bonus- John was gorgeous and gave it his all.
Got to agree with your comment on real instruments. Saw an old video of the Bee Gees singing Too Much Heaven and it wasn't just the vocals (which were amazing) but the studio orchestra that really made that song outstanding.
That's the thing with John Farnham. Whilst he is 'The Voice' and can just about 'out-sing' anyone, he also has a world class band backing him up wherever he goes. Every concert he plays he always credits his band in such a humble manner. He likes playing with them, and they seem to like playing with him. Plus out of the many concerts I have been to over the years, including big local (Aussie) and top level/headline international bands, I have yet to find anyone who can involve the crowd on such a personal level like John can. He makes you feel like he has invited a few friends around to his garage for a private jam session with his mates!
This concert was amazing, Went to it in 1987 and the Orchestra, each instrument had it's own speaker throughout the stadium. With John's voice and natural sounds surrounding us from everywhere, just an experience that will never be forgotten.
John Farham always gets that reaction. He is such a humble well mannered entertainer. He brings people together. He is not a pretentious show he is genuine. His vocals are captivating. He is a showman. Johnnie and his supportive family are fighting cancer now. 🙏🏻 I am 67 and I have been following and listening to Johnnie for 50+ years. Radio, TV and live. That is his voice. He is called "The Voice".
I'm glad you cover this legendary and in my eyes best version of Help ever, I think it was George Harrison who said: this is how help was meant to be sang. Hats off John, absolute legendary bloke, btw ive heard him unaccompanied live, thats his voice he is legendary
This atmosphere is prety much standard at a John Farnham concert. Not many artists can draw in and engage a crowd like Farnsey can. He makes his concerts (and I've been to several of his in small and large venues) feel personal and like he's invited a few friends around to his garage for a jam session and a yarn. A truly world class performer.
Yep that’s his natural sound. He’s never screwed up any notes. He’s so amazing. You mentioned making someone feel good even if it’s for a short minute. Well me watching you react to Our John has made my day. In fact when you review any of our Australian artists like Guy Sebastian too, just watching your face and your enjoyment listening makes me happy. I know in every one of Johns songs when he’s going to belt out etc so I watch you to see your reaction. I’m just glad that he’s finally being heard in your country by people like you because we have been lucky enough to enjoy his music here for decades. Keep watching his songs.
My Father was also a session muso in Adelaide and has played in the Farnham Concert and he said John Farnham was the most professional and respectful Australian singer he has ever worked with. My Father also played for Sammy Davis and I think Frank Sinatra and a host of other US famous singers and Musos. Loved your reaction to John Farnham and his performance with the total package .
This was a great reaction. I loved the way your face was saying half way through"This is serious. Why haven't I heard of this guy before? "Nice to get a muso's take. Thank you.
Cant believe the amount of people who have never heard of John Farnham. More reaction videos to the voice the more people get to discover his great talent
Hey thanks a lot I really appreciate your comment that's very nice Please make sure you subscribe so we can stay in touch. “I hope you really like it. Stay in touch and let me know“
You are discovering one of the world's best voices! I think the sound is a bit distorted in this recording, which is a shame, because his natural voice is naturally clear and pure. John has been around since the late 60s. He's had a lot of career highs and lows, but was pretty much unstoppable in the 80s and 90s. Even now, at almost 72, he can out-sing nearly anyone 😊 PS: Melbourne is pronounced "Melbin" 🙂
Thanks for your reaction, you may have already read in the comments below that Farnsey is known as "The Voice" but what you may not know is that he released a song called 'Your the Voice' back in 1986 and the powerful lyrics are as relevant today as they were over 30 years ago (maybe even more so). This is John singing it at the same concert ruclips.net/video/6m2m_9Uijso/видео.html but before you watch it, I urge you to just read the first couple of versus. PS this is Australia's unofficial National Anthem 🇦🇺😀 Lyrics: We have the chance to turn the pages over We can write what we want to write We gotta make ends meet, before we get much older We're all someone's daughter We're all someone's son How long can we look at each other Down the barrel of a gun? You're the voice, try and understand it Make a noise and make it clear Oh, whoa We're not gonna sit in silence We're not gonna live with fear Oh, whoa This time, we know we all can stand together With the power to be powerful Believing we can make it better ...

Your comment is very much appreciated but the reply you received from this channel is generic and is repeated in exactly the same way each time. This indicates to me that no comment is taken seriously and his reaction is not genuine which is why I have unsubscribed.
He can sing can't he? as an proud Australian myself and not much younger than this man we have basically grown up together from our teens ... him singing and me listening ... now he is in his 70's and still sounds as good as he did as a teenager
I am 105 live concerts down so far. He is "The Voice"....and is still as good today as when I first saw him in the late 1960's. He is one of the world's greatest singers. He was named one of Australia's Living Legends. I adore this human!!
I worked on production on several big shows with John in the 80's. It's all him. And he is a total gentleman, no ego problems at all. Relates to crew in the same way as he reacts to other stars. Cheers! PS: Your mic sounds like its running a bit hot. You might wanna drop yr atten or gain.
Sitting in the depths of southern Germany taking me back to my Australian upbringing, and remembering the voice of my years growing up. The Voice is the greatest ever, and I am a massive Freddie Mercury fan.
The basic arrangement of the song was originally done by John himself. In this particular version, the guy playing piano is David Hirschfelder, highly respected, academy award nominated film score composer/musician (Shine, Australia, Elizabeth, Sliding Doors... etc). I would suspect that he might have had a hand in the orchestral arrangement.

Sad that America did not get to see him so much but you might know his songs from Little River Band and the RAD soundtrak. He is the best male vocal of all time. Hands down. I have seen him 5 times. Boys 2 Men. Bruno Mars. Lionel Ritchie. Kenny Rogers. Phil Collins and Johnny Farnham will send shivers down your spine every song live.
Watch John singing Touch of Paradise. Stirs the soul. America had their chance with John but the record companies didn't know what to do with him. That's ok we will keep him.
Dude thats His Natural Voice Honestly i had the Pleasure of Seeing John Farnham In Concert when he Toured New Zealand back in 2019 I was 19 at the Time it was the First concert ive ever been to But i had been a Fan of John since i was a Little Kid Trust me John was 70 Years Old at that time And The Voice You hear in this Video Was exactly the same Voice i heard in Concert He used no Falsetto No Auto tune or Special Effects to make his voice sound better no Way It was just him and his band And He Nailed Each And every song He sung John Has never had Voice Lessons He's Never Used Falsetto as he said in his interview his Falsetto is Extremely Poor So when he Belts Out the Notes and Sings it Comes Naturally ...this is his Natural Singing Voice im not Even Lying and He Sounds just like this Today and Hes Currently 72 Years old What a Inspiration And What a Talented Singer one of the Greatest in the World in my Opinion
You have just found out why Australians are so proud to have JF.. think it was arranged by David Hershfelder.. have a listen to some of John's other tracks.. all the international artists that pass through will tell you he really is the voice.. for some inexplicable reason the Americans didn't pick up on him properly..(possibly not the best PR job)
His voice does have that texture your talking about. Is it obvious I love him? Lol. I keep pausing and commenting. I think also watching an American watching an Aussie singer who is a legend here but unknown overseas, it makes me proud. Our lives here Down Under is filled with American Tv series, Movies, Singers etc. The first Aussie that really became noticed years and years ago in the States was Paul Hogan (Crocodile Dundee), but slowly Australian talent started to pop up over there and now there are a lot of Australian Actors.
You make me feel better about my commenting. At the moment, my favourite thing on the internet is the comments section in all of these Farhnam and Barnes reaction videos. Honestly, got me through a bad week or three being really sick.
What you heard is John's voice and been singing like that since the 60s. He is THE VOICE. This is live and the last song of the concert. Incredible vocal range and incredible passion, interaction with his audience. Being a jazz musician, you might like his Man Of the Hour video but you'd really love his video with Ray Charles.
Never tire of hearing this and reactions to it. I think I heard in the last "help" that he sang a little nod to the godfather of Australian rock and roll Johhny O'Keeffe who used to start his song Shout! With that rasping sustained note. Brilliant, utterly beautiful and love and wishes for a speedy recovery to John. Love ya mate.
That is John’s natural voice. You haven’t seen him until you see him live. He had his first number 1 hit at 18, he is now in his 70’s and he still has that voice. It doesn’t stop for hours at a concert and he is really sweet and nice. He always was. He keeps doing farewell tours but I think his wife Gilly keeps sending him back to work. She says he gets fat at home.
John Farnham is an interesting bloke for several reasons. He is geniunely a very nice and kind person both on and off stage. He is an infamous larrikin who loves to play around on stage and plays pranks on fellow band members and backup singers alike when live in concert, trying to see if he can make them crack despite their professionalism. (there are a few world singers that do not like him because of that. Its not that he cant be serious when he wants to be, stuck up people tend to piss him off so he will rub salt in the wound) This man believe it or not does have a world wide fan base in other singers around the globe. Some of the biggest names known across the globe are fans of his and fanboy and fangirl when they get to sing with him. Celine Dion is one of his biggest. He has the ability to sniff out the best musicians and singers and routinely asks then to join him in a concert to back himself up, and he does go to the extreme to make sure each and everyone of them has the spotlight on them for a portion of the concert. Some amazingly shy, but he has a knack for bringing them out of their shells. Each one knows what he is like on stage and is more than willing to let him go hell for leather. Routinely they love and get their own kicks out of watching him get himself into mock trouble and dig himself a deeper hole to fall into. He ultimately lives for the crowd and loves to drag them into each and every song as you can see him do here. It isnt a concert unless you see someone throw the biggest damn pair of granny knickers onto the stage which always makes him snort and break into laughter, but he seemlessly slips back into the song effortlessly. I am not sure who arranged it into a piano ballad exactly, perhaps it was John. But it was Produced by another Australian musician, singer and writer named Graeham Goble. That man you should check out too. He and two others had their own band Little River Band. I am more than sure you will love their crooning smooth songs. John very briefly sung for them when Glenn Shorrock wanted a break, but in my eyes it didnt gel very well. Their styles are just far too different.
Thanks for your write up. I've read Farnsey's bio and just want to add that John wanted to take LRB to greater heights but the band were too set in their ways and even disapproved and frowned with John's onstage Larrakin ways. Needless to say John wasn't happy and with the band alienating him so they parted ways. Big question. Where are LRB today? All I can say, is it was their loss.
@@Katrinagaming-en1os LRB are exactly where they have always been still making music but due to that prick in the US, they lost the name. They are now called BSG. We all know what Johns intentions were, but honestly it was not what that band stood for or prided themselves on. It just wasn't the right match. LRB actually did break international borders without Johns help, but it was just too much effort so they let it go. But yes, they were one of the groups that heartily believed in professional excellence and didn't like or agree with Johns attitude. However that never stopped either from dealing with each other or helping each other, they just refused to sing together. So really BSG never lost anything.
That IS Farnham's voice, it is so pure and his range is amazing. I have seen many John Farnham concerts in Melbourne and each time is even better than the last, if that is possible. And The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra is world renowned, Have played for Elton John and Kiss, The Seekers (you should take a look at them, Judith Durham has one of the best Aussie female voices as well) and of course Farnsie).......
My mother tried to name me after Judith Durham...the nurses wouldn't let her. So instead of Judith Melissa {which they insisted I wasn't}, I'm Melissa Judith. Sad fact - my mother died of Motor Neurone Disease a few years before Judith's husband died of the same. But of course, you're right. We used to tease my mother about her love of the Seekers {as children are want to do to their parents}, but I took her to a Seekers concert as a surprise. I can't deny I was impressed {don't tell my husband or children. :D }
Yes. The LEGENDARY VOICE. 'Our' JF. You said it - straight off: "Great Pipes!" Ya know... he started out as a Plumber - but every time he opened his mouth people told him; "Mate! Get outta these pipes & use YOUR Pipes!" And aren't we glad he did! { ... least that's the way I heard it.} :)
Our amazing JF and a fabulous Beatles song. He is so well loved in this country. We are so proud of hi. In his 70's now and still rocking. That is his natural sound, for sure. No technical enhancements at all. Just a naturally talented guy. Our national treasure. Love you John...

Hi Matt, thanks for reviewing Australia’s very best ever singer entertainer. But i also want to say that we had a great compare of variety shows who was originally from America - Don Lane and he used your comment often at the end of his show “it’s nice to be important, but it’s important to be nice”👍☺
This concert was at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne, Farnham has the best voice going around. It is unbelievable that this Aussie talent was not a world star, he is to us Aussies though. Seeing him live makes everybody else sound second rate, Go Farnsie...........
Yes we definitely missed out here in England when John emigrated to Australia, but alot of us do know that John IS absolutely world class and has one of the finest voices to ever bless this planet. Loved seeing him perform at the Princes Trust Rock Gala when I was a kid. I absolutely love that Australia embraced him and he has had such an amazing career ❤ Such a nice bloke too.
Thanks mate for reacting 2 my fav singer ever. John is da best I’ve ever heard and has so many great hits. Check out “Your the Voice” Same concert with the Melbourne symphony orchestra which is his biggest hit and got great message even for today

Hi ,its interesting that you reviewed JF most popularly reviewed video . It's great to watch your reaction . It's also funny that you wonder if if his voice is affected by video quality when he wrings out the notes. His mastery is his voice control. I appreciate that you have not heard of him before. And you did give him kudos olong the way. YES that is his natural voice and after 40 yes of attending his concerts well I always feel 10 ft and bullet proof when leaving. It's a JF thing.

Does any other Aussie get the urge every now and then to binge watch reactions to Help and You're the voice, duos with Jimmy Barnes etc?. It happens to me it seems every couple of months, especially the Melbourne Symphony concerts. Of course, Farnham has such a great voice, I don't mind much.
Like right now for me lol. Also Paradise by the Dashboard Lights. 🤣
And Tim Minchin reactions
Lol it's one of my fav things to watch on RUclips hahahaha 🤣🤣🤣🤣 it's gold to watch their eyes pop out of their head ... The man has to be the biggest underrated (on a world scale) voice ever ... He in my opinion has the best voice iv ever heard he's angelic
Yep. Love JF. Especially this one. And Sadie, of course. Shows how oz I am
I am currently involved in this exact past-time. :)
What you see is what you get. John is rasp, fire, love, and constantly relevant to our lives. Bless you John.
And this is why we call him The VOICE.
Yes! That is his voice, I have worked on several shows with John from early 80's - early 90's. He is a national icon in Australia! A very genuine, down to earth bloke with very little ego, he will talk to anyone from stars to crew members with no pretence. What you see is what you get.
Cheers and thanks!
Micko this comment is so true on many levels! He is honestly THE nicest guy in the industry... And I must say I'm a bit jelly that you got to work with him and his amazing team (lol)

John is an AMAZING guy with ZERO ego. He ALWAYS had best of arrangers,band & backup singers & ALWAYS grounded & shared his success with ALL just like David Byrne did all his band.

John Lennon said this was the best rendition of Help ever recorded, and how he wanted it to be recorded originally by the Beatles, however the record label overrode his wishes of a slow version and released it in faster tempo.
You mean Paul McCartney?
Paul said that.
Unfortunately John was long gone by the time Farnham started doing his version.
@@PaulRizzo Not true. Farnham recorded his version in July 1980. Lennon passed in December 1980.
@@adrianstevens4725 yeah and he heard it in that time and said it
@@PaulRizzoPaul also said that too.
Mate, you don`t fill out auditoriums of that size without having a real voice. John Farnham is an incredible talent.
We definitely missed out here in England when John emigrated to Australia aged 10. This man has one of the finest voices to ever bless this planet. He should be revered in the same way Freddie Mercury, Steve Perry and Jimi Jamison are IMO
He's Big over there tho "You're the Voice" was a UK Top 10 Smash Hit In 1987 it Reached #6 On the Chart and Stayed there at #6 for 3 Months.... and Some of his other Songs were Popular Not as Famous as You're the Voice But they did do okay so Over there in England Hes Pretty Big ❤😊
@@traviscarlson6718 Indeed...I think we've discussed this on another video lol. I made my parents buy me You're The Voice, it was my first record as a really young kid. I had older relatives (£10 poms 😆) who left England the same time as John did and they would bring his records etc over from Melbourne for me.
I meant more the fact that we missed out on the amount of live concerts. I loved him performing at the Princes Trust Rock Gala in 1989 though, he totally blew everyone away....as usual.
Anyways, he has always been my favourite and the fact he is a beautiful human being too is a bonus.❤
P.s Take care in Aus mate, hope things get better soon, lockdowns are hard. We've only just come out of ours after the best part of 15 months indoors.
@@lynseycstormster4689 Aww Yess John Did Do Concerts Over there in the 80s he was on TOP OF THE POPS in 1987 and He did a concert idk where but i know he did a Concert After he Was on TOP OF THE POPS he did a Concert and it held 45,000 People although i could be wrong But Apart from those 2 Things He did in the 80s ur right he never did Large scale Sell out Tours as he did in other parts of the World like in Germany and Australia and other parts of the World tbh i think you can find the vid on RUclips In 1987 when he was in Germany doing a Tour There He had a Sell out Concert that held 2 Million People and Everyone knew the words to You're the Voice, Pressure Down, HELP, and Ofc he preformed Sadie Then he went on to Sweden Denmark Even did a Small Gig In Ireland in 1989 i think that was the Prince's trust And dude Everyone Knew the words to You're the voice Because he made the Audience join in and they were Like "WERE ALL SOMEONES DAUGHTER WERE ALL SOMEONES SON HOW LONG CAN WE LOOK AT EACH OTHER DOWN THE BARREL OF A GUN" Thats how Famous he Was He even did a Very Small Concert In Ontario Canada When You're the Voice Broke Records By Becoming the First Australian Single of that Year to Make Canada's Top 20 So the Dude is known all over the world brother ....and thanks my dude I dont live in Australia im in New Zealand but we Have been in Lockdown recently etc But yeah its hard for all of us
Apparently Freddie once called him the greatest male vocalist in the world - high praise indeed
Dont forget u guys gave us the bee gees..jimmy barnes..acdc..definately something in the water over there. Thank u
My mum and dad took me to this concert (yes, this exact performance) - a very special memory of my childhood. Farnsy is a national treasure. 🇦🇺
No way
That's has natural sound. Sounds ever better when you are there. Greatest singer ever.
I’ve seen John live 5 times over 22 years. His concerts are ALWAYS like this. Us non-singers can’t talk for 3 days after one of his shows. And he’d go from a venue like this, to my home town where the biggest room held 2000 people, and bring exactly the same energy.
That’s his sound. His voice is insane

John is an absolute national treasure. Make us proud to be Australian. He’s known as The Voice for a reason. 😊
Popular music REAL blessed Uncle Sam🇺🇸 gave 🌏 'THE KING ' / Brits 🇬🇧 Freddie Mercury/Au🇦🇺 The VOICE John Farnham REAL int. thing why John never became as HUGE overseas is coz HE CHOSE TO STAY IN Au.🇦🇺 He had cupla 'look sees' in US wirth LRB & as solo artist postSadie in UK But the chose to remain HUGE 🐡 in a
small pond & restrict his career to Au🇦🇺 and thats one of reasons we LOVE John sooo much !! Dont think he was that driven to want more than what he ALREADY had in Au🇦🇺
YES. That is his voice.
Yes, that's his amazing voice. He is/was an extraordinary entertainer and also, like Guy Sebastian, a magically nice bloke too. Nobody has ever said a negative word against him in 45 years. He's a very beloved man in Oz. That smile at the beginning of that concert was him to a tee. He adored his audiences and we adored him. John Farnham concerts were some of the very best I've ever been to.
John loves his audience but he doesn’t need them to enhance his performance- he brings it no matter what 🥰
And I shook his hand! It was at one of the Sydney concerts at the Entertainment Centre. At the time I was the only one at the stage. In that handshake I saw and felt a gentle, warm, human being. This is a great artist who gives his all when he sings,110%! Unfortunately John has had a cancer scare with a cancer being removed from his jaw and us Aussies are praying for his health to return. 😢🙏❤️🇦🇺
David Hirschfelder orchestrated this and John Farnham has been singing this arrangement of the Beatles Help since the 80's. David Hirschfelder was nominated for an Oscar in 1997 for the film Shine. This was filmed in 1989 at the Melbourne Tennis Centre
He doesn't impact us 'just for a moment'. He has been doing this for 50 plus years. You are seeing greatness, and I and just about every Australian love him. Yes that is his voice.
Yes! Well said 👌
Being at a John Farnham concert is like being at a party with a lot of friends and one of them just happens to be a really great singer!
That's exactly what it's like well said
The quality of Australian musicians is absolutely outstanding. Most International famous artists are literally shocked by this discovery. We have so many famous artists who have risen to the top of the world! Our sound studios and engineers are world class. The Orchestra the same.
no no no no, no matter what the crowd was like, John always put a 100% into a performance, that was his respect for his fans! legend! this was the last song of a two hr concert!
One of the best male singers of all time. He should have been more notised world wide. My absolutly favorite live performence with him is from a show called the last time. Its from 2003. The song is called ,when the war is over . His vocal performence is from another planet. He still delivers amazing vocals at the age 71.
Did you know that some numbnut tried to sue John for his "Last time" concert not actually being his last??? :O
I was at one of the John Farnham Whispering Jack concerts in Melbourne in 1987 with my sister and a few friends. The video brings back so many amazing memories, but it's nothing compared to seeing the man live in concert! Thanks for appreciating one of our Aussie National Treasures
Think BEST concerts 'Jack of Hearts' live Au. tv chl. 7 Network 1996 & 2OO4 Melbourne Crowne Casino feat. Ray Charles WOW !!😍
They way he sings it make me cry it's so beautiful....
This Man continues to have meaning on Australians.
As a singer, I get what you're saying.
And yes, that is his voice.
He is The Voice in Australia.
He is probably one of the nicest people you'll ever meet.

Did you realise that this is a Beatles song? But our John OWNS IT!! he is known in Australia as The Voice and there is no better performer or better loved entertainer than John. He is talented, humble and a good all around nice bloke. Pretty handsome too! Also check out his other videos with singers and especially Jimmy Barnes.💋
It makes me a very proud Australian to see you smile watching Johnny Farnham. His songTouch of Paradise was my bridal dance. He is one of the best in Australian music. Your watching a video of him in his earlier career BUT he can still belt out his songs just like he used to. He’s awesome.
Nobody out sings JF.
To hear him live is awe inspiring ❤️
The best contemporary male voice, bar none.
Thanks Johnny 😉😁
🇦🇺
☮️
Welcome to one of the all time great voices, PERIOD. As a singer and appreciator of amazing vocalists who are also consummate performers, it has been a privilege growing up with Farnsey as the soundtrack of my childhood. And he’s still,phenomenal now.

That is his natural sound, he has a unique voice. He always introduced his whole band. Farnsey has sang with Ray Charles, Celine Dion and many more. He is the consummate entertainer. Thanks for showcasing Aussie talent, we have so much here.
That is his voice. He is just amazing. I’m Australian and watching these reactions has made me revisit this amazing artist. He’s 70 mow and still sings. He’s brilliant and so down to earth. World class ❤️🇦🇺
John's concerts are all great. Last song after a long concert and still as powerful as the first. Yes that's his voice
One of the best singers I ever heard.
John had just a naturally beautiful and amazing vouce
That's his natural singing voice. Farnham is a pop/rock singer though he has a theatrical background which might explain the high range and operatic tone. This is prime Farnham and probably his best live vocal in my opinion. There are so many more great performance to be reviewed.
No one comes close to John... The Voice!..🥰🇦🇺🥰
John Farnham with the Melboune Symphony Orchestra was one of his best concerts. The song arrangements were great and were performed beautifully by all the musicians and singers. Bonus- John was gorgeous and gave it his all.
Got to agree with your comment on real instruments. Saw an old video of the Bee Gees singing Too Much Heaven and it wasn't just the vocals (which were amazing) but the studio orchestra that really made that song outstanding.
That's the thing with John Farnham. Whilst he is 'The Voice' and can just about 'out-sing' anyone, he also has a world class band backing him up wherever he goes. Every concert he plays he always credits his band in such a humble manner. He likes playing with them, and they seem to like playing with him.
Plus out of the many concerts I have been to over the years, including big local (Aussie) and top level/headline international bands, I have yet to find anyone who can involve the crowd on such a personal level like John can. He makes you feel like he has invited a few friends around to his garage for a private jam session with his mates!
This concert was amazing, Went to it in 1987 and the Orchestra, each instrument had it's own speaker throughout the stadium. With John's voice and natural sounds surrounding us from everywhere, just an experience that will never be forgotten.
John Farham always gets that reaction. He is such a humble well mannered entertainer. He brings people together. He is not a pretentious show he is genuine. His vocals are captivating. He is a showman.
Johnnie and his supportive family are fighting cancer now. 🙏🏻
I am 67 and I have been following and listening to Johnnie for 50+ years. Radio, TV and live.
That is his voice.
He is called "The Voice".
It was an incredible show, and Help .... well it was one of those "moments in time". Still gives me chills and makes me proud
That's his voice ,he reaches heights most singers would love to reach.
No it's his natural voice. Incredible isn't it.
Australia's National Treasure. I love him so much!!! By the way, there's a good reason we call him THE VOICE in Australia.
I'm glad you cover this legendary and in my eyes best version of Help ever, I think it was George Harrison who said: this is how help was meant to be sang. Hats off John, absolute legendary bloke, btw ive heard him unaccompanied live, thats his voice he is legendary
This atmosphere is prety much standard at a John Farnham concert. Not many artists can draw in and engage a crowd like Farnsey can. He makes his concerts (and I've been to several of his in small and large venues) feel personal and like he's invited a few friends around to his garage for a jam session and a yarn. A truly world class performer.
A combination of the last song of an epic concert, plus singing to his home crowd, gave this song an extra bit of emotional punch
Yep that’s his natural sound. He’s never screwed up any notes. He’s so amazing. You mentioned making someone feel good even if it’s for a short minute. Well me watching you react to Our John has made my day. In fact when you review any of our Australian artists like Guy Sebastian too, just watching your face and your enjoyment listening makes me happy. I know in every one of Johns songs when he’s going to belt out etc so I watch you to see your reaction. I’m just glad that he’s finally being heard in your country by people like you because we have been lucky enough to enjoy his music here for decades. Keep watching his songs.
He is an amazing singer with a personality as great as his voice!
My Father was also a session muso in Adelaide and has played in the Farnham Concert and he said John Farnham was the most professional and respectful Australian singer he has ever worked with. My Father also played for Sammy Davis and I think Frank Sinatra and a host of other US famous singers and Musos. Loved your reaction to John Farnham and his performance with the total package .
🇦🇺 Love John Farnham, he is a national treasure. ❤🎶
This was a great reaction. I loved the way your face was saying half way through"This is serious. Why haven't I heard of this guy before? "Nice to get a muso's take. Thank you.
Cant believe the amount of people who have never heard of John Farnham. More reaction videos to the voice the more people get to discover his great talent

So proud of Johnny 🇦🇺❤️
You are discovering one of the world's best voices! I think the sound is a bit distorted in this recording, which is a shame, because his natural voice is naturally clear and pure. John has been around since the late 60s. He's had a lot of career highs and lows, but was pretty much unstoppable in the 80s and 90s. Even now, at almost 72, he can out-sing nearly anyone 😊 PS: Melbourne is pronounced "Melbin" 🙂
the only guy Ive ever seen do justice to the way John lennon wanted this song sung
Thanks for your reaction, you may have already read in the comments below that Farnsey is known as "The Voice" but what you may not know is that he released a song called 'Your the Voice' back in 1986 and the powerful lyrics are as relevant today as they were over 30 years ago (maybe even more so). This is John singing it at the same concert ruclips.net/video/6m2m_9Uijso/видео.html but before you watch it, I urge you to just read the first couple of versus. PS this is Australia's unofficial National Anthem 🇦🇺😀
Lyrics:
We have the chance to turn the pages over
We can write what we want to write
We gotta make ends meet, before we get much older
We're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?
You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
Oh, whoa
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Oh, whoa
This time, we know we all can stand together
With the power to be powerful
Believing we can make it better ...

Your comment is very much appreciated but the reply you received from this channel is generic and is repeated in exactly the same way each time. This indicates to me that no comment is taken seriously and his reaction is not genuine which is why I have unsubscribed.
He's in his 70's and still going strong
He can sing can't he? as an proud Australian myself and not much younger than this man we have basically grown up together from our teens ... him singing and me listening ... now he is in his 70's and still sounds as good as he did as a teenager
I am 105 live concerts down so far. He is "The Voice"....and is still as good today as when I first saw him in the late 1960's. He is one of the world's greatest singers. He was named one of Australia's Living Legends. I adore this human!!
I worked on production on several big shows with John in the 80's. It's all him. And he is a total gentleman, no ego problems at all. Relates to crew in the same way as he reacts to other stars.
Cheers!
PS: Your mic sounds like its running a bit hot. You might wanna drop yr atten or gain.
Sitting in the depths of southern Germany taking me back to my Australian upbringing, and remembering the voice of my years growing up. The Voice is the greatest ever, and I am a massive Freddie Mercury fan.
He is amazing live. Love him x
That's his natural sound by the way
That is his voice! Been to many of his concerts and he was always better than the last!
The basic arrangement of the song was originally done by John himself. In this particular version, the guy playing piano is David Hirschfelder, highly respected, academy award nominated film score composer/musician (Shine, Australia, Elizabeth, Sliding Doors... etc). I would suspect that he might have had a hand in the orchestral arrangement.
Pretty sure I read that David did it.

Sad that America did not get to see him so much but you might know his songs from Little River Band and the RAD soundtrak. He is the best male vocal of all time. Hands down. I have seen him 5 times. Boys 2 Men. Bruno Mars. Lionel Ritchie. Kenny Rogers. Phil Collins and Johnny Farnham will send shivers down your spine every song live.
John is an amazing talent, as well as a true Aussie treasure.
That’s his natural voice ….. he is superb xoxo
It is him, always had it.
Watch John singing Touch of Paradise. Stirs the soul. America had their chance with John but the record companies didn't know what to do with him. That's ok we will keep him.
Australian born and bred. He is a LEGEND one ofv our national treasures
Yeah not born in Australia. He was born in Dagenham in the UK. He didn't move to Australia until he was 10.
Dude thats His Natural Voice Honestly i had the Pleasure of Seeing John Farnham In Concert when he Toured New Zealand back in 2019 I was 19 at the Time it was the First concert ive ever been to But i had been a Fan of John since i was a Little Kid Trust me John was 70 Years Old at that time And The Voice You hear in this Video Was exactly the same Voice i heard in Concert He used no Falsetto No Auto tune or Special Effects to make his voice sound better no Way It was just him and his band And He Nailed Each And every song He sung John Has never had Voice Lessons He's Never Used Falsetto as he said in his interview his Falsetto is Extremely Poor So when he Belts Out the Notes and Sings it Comes Naturally ...this is his Natural Singing Voice im not Even Lying and He Sounds just like this Today and Hes Currently 72 Years old What a Inspiration And What a Talented Singer one of the Greatest in the World in my Opinion
You have just found out why Australians are so proud to have JF.. think it was arranged by David Hershfelder.. have a listen to some of John's other tracks.. all the international artists that pass through will tell you he really is the voice.. for some inexplicable reason the Americans didn't pick up on him properly..(possibly not the best PR job)
Yes pianist David Herschfelder did the arrangements also on Whispering Jack Album
Yep.l listen to John every day..love him so much..hope he is recovering well from surgery.
John Farnham's concert are a wonderful experience. Everyone needs to go to one in their lifetime.
His voice does have that texture your talking about. Is it obvious I love him? Lol. I keep pausing and commenting. I think also watching an American watching an Aussie singer who is a legend here but unknown overseas, it makes me proud. Our lives here Down Under is filled with American Tv series, Movies, Singers etc. The first Aussie that really became noticed years and years ago in the States was Paul Hogan (Crocodile Dundee), but slowly Australian talent started to pop up over there and now there are a lot of Australian Actors.
You make me feel better about my commenting. At the moment, my favourite thing on the internet is the comments section in all of these Farhnam and Barnes reaction videos. Honestly, got me through a bad week or three being really sick.
We grew up with John Farnham, we are the Lucky Country
What you heard is John's voice and been singing like that since the 60s. He is THE VOICE. This is live and the last song of the concert. Incredible vocal range and incredible passion, interaction with his audience. Being a jazz musician, you might like his Man Of the Hour video but you'd really love his video with Ray Charles.
I was at this concert. 🌟🌟🌟Yes that's his voice.
Never tire of hearing this and reactions to it. I think I heard in the last "help" that he sang a little nod to the godfather of Australian rock and roll Johhny O'Keeffe who used to start his song Shout! With that rasping sustained note. Brilliant, utterly beautiful and love and wishes for a speedy recovery to John. Love ya mate.
That is John’s natural voice. You haven’t seen him until you see him live. He had his first number 1 hit at 18, he is now in his 70’s and he still has that voice. It doesn’t stop for hours at a concert and he is really sweet and nice. He always was. He keeps doing farewell tours but I think his wife Gilly keeps sending him back to work. She says he gets fat at home.
John Farnham is an interesting bloke for several reasons.
He is geniunely a very nice and kind person both on and off stage.
He is an infamous larrikin who loves to play around on stage and plays pranks on fellow band members and backup singers alike when live in concert, trying to see if he can make them crack despite their professionalism. (there are a few world singers that do not like him because of that. Its not that he cant be serious when he wants to be, stuck up people tend to piss him off so he will rub salt in the wound)
This man believe it or not does have a world wide fan base in other singers around the globe. Some of the biggest names known across the globe are fans of his and fanboy and fangirl when they get to sing with him. Celine Dion is one of his biggest.
He has the ability to sniff out the best musicians and singers and routinely asks then to join him in a concert to back himself up, and he does go to the extreme to make sure each and everyone of them has the spotlight on them for a portion of the concert. Some amazingly shy, but he has a knack for bringing them out of their shells. Each one knows what he is like on stage and is more than willing to let him go hell for leather. Routinely they love and get their own kicks out of watching him get himself into mock trouble and dig himself a deeper hole to fall into.
He ultimately lives for the crowd and loves to drag them into each and every song as you can see him do here.
It isnt a concert unless you see someone throw the biggest damn pair of granny knickers onto the stage which always makes him snort and break into laughter, but he seemlessly slips back into the song effortlessly.
I am not sure who arranged it into a piano ballad exactly, perhaps it was John. But it was Produced by another Australian musician, singer and writer named Graeham Goble. That man you should check out too. He and two others had their own band Little River Band. I am more than sure you will love their crooning smooth songs. John very briefly sung for them when Glenn Shorrock wanted a break, but in my eyes it didnt gel very well. Their styles are just far too different.
Thanks for your write up. I've read Farnsey's bio and just want to add that John wanted to take LRB to greater heights but the band were too set in their ways and even disapproved and frowned with John's onstage Larrakin ways. Needless to say John wasn't happy and with the band alienating him so they parted ways. Big question. Where are LRB today? All I can say, is it was their loss.
@@Katrinagaming-en1os LRB are exactly where they have always been still making music but due to that prick in the US, they lost the name. They are now called BSG.
We all know what Johns intentions were, but honestly it was not what that band stood for or prided themselves on. It just wasn't the right match. LRB actually did break international borders without Johns help, but it was just too much effort so they let it go. But yes, they were one of the groups that heartily believed in professional excellence and didn't like or agree with Johns attitude. However that never stopped either from dealing with each other or helping each other, they just refused to sing together.
So really BSG never lost anything.
THANKS FOR COMMENTING AND FOR ALL THE GREAT INFO. AWESOME. THANKS
His voice has an amazing timber and texture. That is his voice... Full of emotion full of heart full of soul... Brilliant! :)
That IS Farnham's voice, it is so pure and his range is amazing. I have seen many John Farnham concerts in Melbourne and each time is even better than the last, if that is possible. And The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra is world renowned, Have played for Elton John and Kiss, The Seekers (you should take a look at them, Judith Durham has one of the best Aussie female voices as well) and of course Farnsie).......
My mother tried to name me after Judith Durham...the nurses wouldn't let her. So instead of Judith Melissa {which they insisted I wasn't}, I'm Melissa Judith. Sad fact - my mother died of Motor Neurone Disease a few years before Judith's husband died of the same.
But of course, you're right. We used to tease my mother about her love of the Seekers {as children are want to do to their parents}, but I took her to a Seekers concert as a surprise. I can't deny I was impressed {don't tell my husband or children. :D }
That's his own true voice. It's all natural.
Yes. The LEGENDARY VOICE. 'Our' JF. You said it - straight off: "Great Pipes!"
Ya know... he started out as a Plumber - but every time he opened his mouth people told him;
"Mate! Get outta these pipes & use YOUR Pipes!" And aren't we glad he did! { ... least that's the way I heard it.} :)
Mate farnhams voice is all natural, he got it from his father's side of his family, I grew up with his music for 40 odd years now.
Great reaction…put a smile on your face…..amazing voice
That's his sound. He's flawless.
Our amazing JF and a fabulous Beatles song. He is so well loved in this country. We are so proud of hi. In his 70's now and still rocking. That is his natural sound, for sure. No technical enhancements at all. Just a naturally talented guy. Our national treasure. Love you John...
Check out John singing “when the war is over “when he was later in his career. My guess is he was in his late 50s and he still absolutely kills it

Hi Matt, thanks for reviewing Australia’s very best ever singer entertainer. But i also want to say that we had a great compare of variety shows who was originally from America - Don Lane and he used your comment often at the end of his show “it’s nice to be important, but it’s important to be nice”👍☺
Im still binge watching reactions to this vocal god
This concert was at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne, Farnham has the best voice going around. It is unbelievable that this Aussie talent was not a world star, he is to us Aussies though. Seeing him live makes everybody else sound second rate, Go Farnsie...........
Yes we definitely missed out here in England when John emigrated to Australia, but alot of us do know that John IS absolutely world class and has one of the finest voices to ever bless this planet. Loved seeing him perform at the Princes Trust Rock Gala when I was a kid. I absolutely love that Australia embraced him and he has had such an amazing career ❤ Such a nice bloke too.
Thanks mate for reacting 2 my fav singer ever. John is da best I’ve ever heard and has so many great hits. Check out “Your the Voice” Same concert with the Melbourne symphony orchestra which is his biggest hit and got great message even for today
Thank you mate.
Thank you buddy. We live for these.

Hi ,its interesting that you reviewed JF most popularly reviewed video . It's great to watch your reaction .
It's also funny that you wonder if if his voice is affected by video quality when he wrings out the notes.
His mastery is his voice control.
I appreciate that you have not heard of him before.
And you did give him kudos olong the way.
YES that is his natural voice and after 40 yes of attending his concerts well I always feel 10 ft and bullet proof when leaving. It's a JF thing.

Matt the black lady in the backing vocals is the legendary Venetta Fields who has appeared on hundreds of American albums , Wiki her.
The mighty pipes of Farnsy. ❤️👏🏼
Why don’t reactors react to the fact it is the last song in the concert! That’s how good he is!
Mostly because when they are doing the video they don't know.
