Can you imagine being a player in the dressing rooms listening to this! How pumped would they have been, it is spine tingling stuff. I can't remember a grand final performance before or after Mark that has been as good as this, this is as good as it gets, I feel like jumping the fence and joining the dancers it's so uplifting. The best GF anthem EVER, thanks Mark Williams. Cheers Gaz ❤
I totally agree, I was 25, seen a lot of GF's, this is just so uplifting. Saw Mark several times during his solo career and love his soulful voice. In my opinion both Mark and Jon Stevens are the best I have heard. Mark's version of the Jackie Wilson's classic Higher and Higher is fabulous. Mark was also a dancer in Jenny Morris's hit song Body and Soul. NZ have really given the world some amazing singers, Mark is one them. 🙏
Mark Williams a great entertainer since his school days, Dargaville NZ. Had a band named The Faces, won Northland Battle Of The Bands. The band then came controversial 2nd in Auckland for the NZ title, they had the loudest cheers. Mark sewed his own clothes many thought he was gay, until he eloped with his best friend girl to Australia.
@MANCHESTER UNITED your point?? Who gives a shit how many fans soccer has, rugby league is a shitload better to watch. At least in Rugby League if a player goes down hurt, you know they more than likely are actually hurt. Unlike soccer players who fall to the ground if someone steps on their toe. Or in most cases, they do it for no reason whatsoever.
Thanks for that info. Godfrey Brown. This guy is so amazing...its like his being is a musical instrument! Love the look on Julie the stone Bishops face 😁. Woooah...
I loved the dancing. This era was right before all of this choreography become fully synchronized. Here the dancing is kinda half in sync, half free-form.
G'day yes what a great song and singer Mark is. He is great dancer himself, his appearance on Hey Hey its Saturday with dancers was awesome, I get chills up and down my spine, this song should have been a global smash hit. We are blessed with some great singers none better than Mark. Awesome song 🎵 🙏❤
Here we are in 2023 and I never get tired of this....the best GF anthem ever. 🎉
Mark Williams ... Pure Gold 💖
Anyone remember when he hit the scene in the 70s ...
Yep....doing a tirbute this Waitangi day..... including this song!!!
How could you not enjoy this, the best GF day ever. A great ground, a great song and a great singer. This video makes me happy. Thanks Mark 🙏

Can’t help but dance to this music
Wow... a good song played at a grand final.
He reminds me of Milli Vinilli with his hair.

And the male voice to the Home & Away theme.
daggy dancing comp Mark sounds great !
Omg I feel old. I was 12 years old in 1990...I'm now 41 years old 🤣
It's hard to believe that Mark Williams is already 36 years of age here.

@@glenbrown3011 bahaha...yep Rugby players the real deal...
Wow 36, makes him 68 in 2023. Fuck life is short.
I wonder where are all time dancers now. They were brilliant like Mark.
That man can sing
He's lip syncing isn't he!? Looks like it as words coming out of his mouth when he not singing
@@pauljosse yeah this one is mimed.
Thanks for that info. Godfrey Brown. This guy is so amazing...its like his being is a musical instrument! Love the look on Julie the stone Bishops face 😁. Woooah...

Love it
State Bank, R.I.P.
Canberra Raider showed no mercy.
Mark know how to entrained and talented man. Awesome.
Girls dance terrible.
Not many may know that Mark is the male vocal on the Home & Away theme song.
Oh I had no idea but that's cool
I already knew that.
And Karen Boddington is the female vocalist.
Gtfo, did not know.

A great song for a great day, May 22nd, 2022 the day we, Australia got our democracy back. 🇦🇺🙏👍❤️
Amazingly real. Even the dancers are miming the bad moves
@M wimps play soccor
What a hunk...
What a hunk!!
I just realised that I have made the same comment 2 months apart..😆😁...ahhh well..what a hunk!..
@@bandieboo8102 thats weird, funny but weird.
Got to be .related to Sonny Bill
Another top notch Aussie artist
Kiwi
Antipodean.
New Zealander
How does he manage to sound exactly the same as the album version?!?!
+Mathew Faltas
He's not singing. He's lip-syncing his album version. It's called a playback.
smoke and mirrors
practice....
Obviously a student of the gentle art of Miming.
This has gotta be lip-synced. Sounds identical to the album version.
You mean Lip-Syncing live .. Dancing live tho lol .. great performance none the less.
Is he lip syncing? Still love him if he is
...oh look... i think he is dressed like tina turner......
Lip syncing for sure very funny to watch.
Man he looks like Rob from milli vanilli
A little, lol, it was the style back then.
He even has the same colored eyes as Pilatus.
Supprised he mimed it, cause he can sing ok.
Wonder if he's ever seen or heard Terrence Trent D'Arby before? :D
I'm sure he has, but it might be the other way around given Terrence's first release was 1987 and by this stage Mark had released 4 albums already.
@@Lanewaymusic But Williams never adopted this look until about 1988 or so.
Great song. Just a shame he's lip syncing. But great performance nonetheless.
Chur maori
Lipsyncing is a shame. Great song, though!
Pity he's lip synching rather than playing live
Yeah did we really need the male cheerleaders in this? ha ha
