    Please Don't Ask Me as a duet with Olivia Newton John is heartwrenchingly beautiful.

Wherever possible listen to live performances as the audience reaction elevates the experience. Thanks for this.

    John Farnham was at his best from 1986 to 1994. He did a concert with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra in 1989 and other concerts (1987, 1988, 1990) that were video recorded. Many of the songs performed in these concerts can now be found on YTube and showcase John Farnham, in my opinion, at his best. Fantastic performances by both John and his band. Whispering Jack was his best selling Album released in October 1986.

      You also can clearly hear the MSO in the arrangement. If you're still not convinced, the crowd applause at the end gives it away.

    Oh yes we know our John Farnham born 1949 in the UK. His Family emigrated to Australia when 10. First single aged 18 I think. Was still singing until COVID hit, thus no concerts. Even people who aren’t into his music say he has an amazing voice. My son has never been into him at all, but he admitted he often listens to him lol. Yes his range is amazing - and never had a singing lesson. Happily married, gee must be about 50 years. He’s a total gentleman, never turns fans away. his manager has to drag him away lol, and funny and very humble. An all round good man, husband, father and singer.

    This artist has been around since the 60's and is a good friend of Olivia Newton John's. They worked together in 2000 at the opening ceremony of the Sydney Olympic Games on a duet - it's on youtube. Called DARE TO DREAM. One of his first peformances in Australia was as a teenager on BANDSTAND, a show ONJ is familiar with too. It's called SADIE THE CLEANING LADY and he is a young teenager in 1967. It's on youtube too. BUT the one you need to get hold of is the version of YOU'RE THE VOICE with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. He is known down under as THE VOICE. Hollywood wanted him, but he didn't want to leave Australia. Surprised you haven't heard about him before. Many of his hits are on here including a duet with Jimmy Barnes (Australia's former king of rock). He did a wonderful album called WHISPERING JACK in 1986. Celine Dion loves him and his song YOU'RE THE VOICE. She attempts to sing it at her concerts but her rendition is nothing like his.
