Far out I'm an Aussie and I've never seen this before 😮 I'm sure he wanted to do this because he felt the lyrics, almost something he would write
yes. I believe that too.
and Don and Ian and Steve and phil
Never seen it either wow
I've never seen it either
@@michaelb7647 seriously stupid your comment is only 20 years to late. Sia didn't she have a supposed song about this time. And didn't her career disappear about 2 years after a supposed hit song. Seriously if barnsy can't save your career, yeah well.
I believe he sees his younger self in this song's lyrics. It is deeply personal to him.
Jimmy had a very challenging and public battle with alcohol. He overcame his demons and has a wonderful family. Thus his tears. We love him.
Hope this finally shut up all the people that say Jimmy can't sing. This is what his fans have know all along, he goes into falsetto in between versus of When the War is Over. He can even sing Doris Day's Once I Had a Secret Love believe or not. He can sing anything. ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤💯
i would literally pay to see you meet Jimmy Barnes. someone needs to make that happen
Pretty sure we’d be accomplices to a crime if that happened. He’d die of happiness. Jimmy screams in front of him…. *huge toothy grin*… heart stops. Sleep child sleep.
I gotta say Jimmy made this his own. He totally nailed it. What a great soul version!
This performance gave me actual goosebumps. I feel like Barnesy, Diesel and the the excellent backup singers took me to church.
I'm Australian and I've never seen this either!! I couldn't imagine Jimmy doing this without changing the key... and he didn't do that AND he nailed those falsetto notes, unreal!! Also Diesel with that Gretsch is 🤤🥵
His falsetto is so clean. I love this man!
He performed this because Cia wasn't able to make it to the awards....So not everyone would have been willing to sing this...but our Jimmy is up for it...lol Love seeing this....You and your sister make a great team....
Wait what. So was that spare of the moment or was it rehearsed?
@@rikkiclemson8494 Well obviously I am assuming they had a run through with the band before the show...but yes it was a last minute call when Cia wouldn't make it here for the awards.
Jimmy is actually sia
@@drjay0744 hahaha wow now that's a thought lol
@@drjay0744 Went through similar things. Perhaps not quite as bad as Sia, but they both went through the alcohol abuse. Jimmy knows exactly how it feels fighting his way out of alcohol addiction.
If you look up interviews from Jimmy you'll know how he could relate to this song. He's been so through much in his life, his books are fascinating. I'm proud that he's in the place he's in today and I've never met the guy before lol.
Amen to that. I have been lucky enough to have been watching him perform from very early days and have watched him transform over the years to the beautiful man he is today
Wow! Didn’t expect Jimmy to be able to pull this off at his age. Vocal chords don’t get younger… Great reaction!
I don't cry out at songs often. Like it's extremely rare. But boy Jimmy did so fu*kn good. You can hear the connection. He lived it. So emotional
This is a brilliant one Nick isn’t it- I found this myself a few months back.
You asked what Jimmy may have found in this song to compel him to sing it…..I know you may have been meaning the ‘type’ of singing that the song would demand of him….but if we consider the lyrics and feeling of the song, it’s very very much a song that Jimmy could live and breath.
I’m not sure if you enjoy reading or if you have the time, but I couldn’t strongly enough recommend you read Barnsey’s two autobiographical books ‘working class boy’, and ‘working class man’. They will give you a deep insight into the man and his journey- you’ll understand and appreciate Jimmy and his music even more than you already do!!👍🏻
Totally agree both books are brilliant
Absolutely! 💯
WOW!! Jimmy sings Sia!!- two great South Aussies ❤❤🇦🇺
Sia is from South Australia - and so is Jimmy Barnes. She couldn't make the APRA Awards night (Australian Songwriter Awards), so Jimmy filled in for her.
OMG I have not seen this before and Jimmy absolutely smashed it!! He (as well as the backup singers and Diesel) gave it this incredible emotion and soul - it made me feel very teary especially cos I could actually hear the words properly and it sounds very much like Jimmy in his younger life and how he drank and was a bit rough around the edges. I’m so blown away by this - thanks to you and your sis for doing this reaction ❤️
Sia was impressed, overwhelmed and crying happy tears for Jimmy singing this song😉😉🥰🥰🥰
You guys did it so beautifully so powerful Jimmy voice and the background vocals wow wow 🤩 and we felt it inside to our bones ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️thank thank you 🙏🏾
I never thought Barnesy would have been able to pull this one off, but man, he made it his own! Wow!
😮 Wow Barnsey is like a rock n roll preacher! I totally felt that and I’m not a massive Jimmy fan but I appreciate what a powerful soulful voice he has, he is a storyteller. Flame trees is probably my fave song of his.
So great to see him do this song justice and to see his daughters singing backup and his brother in law. Mark Lizotte/Johnny Diesel doing a brilliant job. If you haven’t heard of him. Check out his music from his solo album and when he was Johnny Diesel and the Injectors.
Thanks for bringing this song to our attention. 💜
Nick - the guitarist playing/singing with Jimmy is Diesel (Mark Lizotte) who is Jimmy's Brother in Law (you've reacted to about 10 of his songs (solo/band/duets). Of special note is that Barnsey performed at the APRA Music Awards on short notice as Sia was unavailable and she was up for an award for Chandelier. And the song is very emotive for Jimmy - you asked why would he choose to sing this song - he is a recovering alcoholic (courtesy of his early free wheeling days with Chisel) and you can see in his performance just how much he sees himself in the lyrics, wiping away sweat and tears. I've enjoyed watching your journey with Chisel and Barnsey. You're an outsider discovering something wonderful - we Aussies grew up listening to these guys and we love them to death, and watching some of your reactions today mirror some of our reactions 40+ years ago.
What up Sis! Nice to see you pop up.. think we need to send some more treats, for this treat!
This man opens his mouth and you just feel the power coming through the speakers
When I saw your sister here, it made me smile so much! ❤️ I’m super excited she’s guesting with you and super excited she’s going to have her own channel! Can’t wait until she’s up and running and you link her to us. 😃
I’ve never seen this video. Thanks heaps for sharing this us with us. Loved it! Also worthy of mention is his back up singers here… from our view, the one on the far left is Jimmy’s sister, Linda Barnes. The one on the far right is his daughter, Elly-May. Not sure on who’s in the middle.
That’s lovely to know that Jimmys sister also works/sings with him.
@@allymayful sadly no longer. She passed away about three weeks ago. 😢
@@Laraine3 Oh how sad!Especially for Jimmy and families. Hope she had a fulfilling life. Thank you for letting me know.
Thank you so much for reacting to this mate. Glad you liked it.
I’ve never seen this before and DAAAMMMNNNN
👏👏👏👏👏
First I heard this version. Wow!! Thanks for sharing thanks and ,Thanks for you and you sisters reaction. You two are great!
Considering your love for Jimmy I highly suggest watching his documentary 'Jimmy Barnes: Working class boy'. It is narrated by Jimmy and has performances with his family. I cried at least 3 times watching it. I always loved him but so much respect for him and how hard his life was.
That was hilarious! I had discovered Jimmy some months ago on your channel, and have not been digging deeper on my own as I'm following many artists and reactors, but whenever I see you with some Jimmy in my suggestions I hop on it immediately, you're a great team (as you and Morissette...) ... Jimmy is amazing, had not thought he'd be able to pull this off... and how he did! Thanks for introducing your sister too, can't wait until she runs her own channel! Best regards from Germany, your name brother Dominik
You should watch Jimmy Barnes band Cold Chisel live in Germany . I think its in 1980 . Great concert
@@stephenformosa471 thanks, will do.
I remember Jimmy doing a cover of ABBA’s ‘Dancing Queen’ live on morning radio in Sydney years ago. Sounded great… 👍
I first saw Jimmy live when I was 17, over 30 years ago - he was amazing then - a solo performer just coming out from being in front of Chisel. Little did any of us know how drugs and alcohol were ruling him back then.
Since then he has overcome so much - grown musically and created so many amazing moments, songs, performances and albums. Rock, soul, acoustic, pop.
I’m sitting here with tears having never seen this before - because this song tells his story of his early years and you can hear it in how he sings it. That’s why this performance is ridiculously good - he probably heard SIAs song and thought - yep, that was me. Wonderful human too.
Apparently he was filling in for her cos at the last minute she couldn’t get to the awards.
I LOVE THIS! Chandelier is an incredibly personal song to me because most people don't realise it's about alcohol addiction (Sia's been sober for many years now). Jimmy Barnes is the perfect artist to cover this song because he's also struggled a lot with addiction issues in his past. I dunno if you've covered it yet (only just discovered your channel) but you need to do 'Khe Sanh'. I used to HATE this song when I was younger because it was always played in pubs, but it's basically Australia's equivalent of 'Born in the USA'. It's the same theme, of Vietnam vets returning home and being alienated and cast off by the government and country they laid down their lives to fight for.
He is a powerhouse - love it so much❤️
Holy snapping frog shite! I didn't know Jimmy could do that either! (Even though I first started listening to Cold Chisel in about 1980!) That's truly a brilliant cover of the song. SMH!
Wow!!! Jimmy's Really Simply The Best
Thanks for covering this, as I’ve never heard/ seen this one before. Jimmy felt these lyrics because the blokes lived it. Onya Jimmy! 🙌🤘
Wow I'm an Aussie and I haven't seen this rendition Jimmy Barnes is a stand out talent and a masterful singer, thanks for the reaction guys it was awesome 👏
Jimmy is tje most amazing singer his voice if he looses
His voice he can still sing he uses his secondary vocal cords he is stunning
Wow, I think there’s just became my favorite performance of his.
Dude.......Loving your sisters hair! It's EPIC! 😲
Goosebumps!!!
Jimmy is a recovering alcoholic like Sia so that is a powerful connection on many levels
It's pretty common knowledge Jimmy had a drinking problem. And this song was easily related to him back from those days. He assisted a homeless choir I was part of - The Choir of Hard Knocks - and shared a lot about his struggles to us as a lot of us had substance issues as well. He really was an amazing person and can't thank him or Jonathan Welch (ex-tenor of Opera Australia) for really helping start the choir.
Here's a pretty rough but fun edit of our initial rehearsal of Flame Tress with him and Mahaylia

Props to the back up singers and of course diesel they smashed that performance also
I've also never seen this before, but loved it. Go you bloody legend Jimmy. And loved that Deisel was up there with him. Jimmy has always had a lovely falsetto. Just doesnt bring it out very often
what a great falsetto has jimmy .....just when you think he cant surprise you anymore !
Superb request & so pumped to see you both reacting together! Fanbloodytastic!!
Damn, brother~sister duo is next level would love to see you both work together more often! You’re two reaction beasts. Loved it!
Jimmy has had a lifetime of alcohol & drug abuse, his family were alcoholics, he struggled a great deal. He has been sober for a good 20yrs now, an inspiring story which he has written about in three books now.
You can buy a headphones splitter for about $5 at any electronics store, it’s just a tiny piece that allows you to plus two pairs of headphones into one! Loved this reaction thanks guys xx
I've actually never seen this myself guys so thanks for reacting to it. He really does have a big range. Not just of styles but vocally.
P.s. your sister is looking cute as hell today in that outfit. You gotta step ya game up Nick haha ;-)
He always sings songs that have influenced him through his life, when he doesn’t do his own. When he did his Working Class Man Tour, it was about his life. He spent a lot of time talking, then some songs that influenced or meant something to him. It was truly amazing. So up close and personal. I was in tears. He’s even sang Bring it on home by Sam Cooke which was brilliant. He also did It’s only make believe by Conway Twitty on Cold Chisel’s Barking Spiders album. Hope that helps answer why. ❤️
Forget Mr. Barnes. That lady in the red dress has some strong pipes. Love to hear her sing it.
Jimmy sang this because of the words... His was an alcoholic/drug addict and the words are perfect... "1,2,3, drink", "keep my glass full" and most important is the line "hear comes the shame, here comes the shame".....
Love this. I'm Aussie too and he owned it.
nature and nurture ...his working Glaswegian beginnings and his extreme experiences in northern Adelaide.....and then meeting tough but fair Australians in the Port and Holdfast Bay ...to realise that you can overcome generations of oppression, to find one self with a little bit of help. To co raise a clan...
Greatnest singing.
wow you guys awesome reaction and I never even knew about this guy! I thank you for doing this!
Mad chops. The song is meaningful for our guy with his struggles with alcohol in his younger days. Great reaction. I’ve never heard this and so unexpected.
His wife and daughters were the backup singers.
His wife started playing during covid. I watch them live on Facebook. Just love the family
Jimmy is currently recovering from major heart surgery & doing well for anyone who is interested.
Jimmy the man 😘
I enjoy watching you and your sister react together.
This is performed at the ARIAS, (Australia’s version of the Grammy’s) so I’m going to guess SIA was nominated for an award for this song and wasn’t there to perform it live.
it's not the ARIA's its from the Australasian Performing Right Association- (Copied from Wikipedia) "which honour the skills of member composers, songwriters, and publishers who have achieved outstanding success in sales and airplay performance."
You’re right his voice is like a lightening bolt through your body 🔥🔥👏
He feels this song through experience. This is about Sia’s personal struggle with addiction. He had the same issues many years ago.
The lyrics from this song would've resonated with Jimmy because of his past with alcoholism
I didn't know Jimmy had such a big range in his repertoire. Loved his version of Sia's song.
I requested this months ago and I’m so happy you did it with your beautiful sister!!!!!From memory I think this song was nominated at the awards and Sia couldn’t come home for it so Jimmy filled in for her. They both came from Adelaide and had issues with alcoholism so I think he may have related to the lyrics, but seriously Jimmy can sing anything!!!!
it was a late call he had 1 day to learn it with the band.... and it was kept a secret until.he came on stage instead of Sia...
It's the best ... so glad you guys reacted 🙌
@@compedge76 that’s so cool!!! I knew there was a good story behind it but couldn’t remember it, thanks!!!!!😊
Just the way that bloke was holding his guitar, i knew it had to be Diesel. This was great...i hadn't heard it before.
If you haven’t already I suggest you read Jimmy’s autobiography’s “Working Class Boy”, and “Working Class Man”. It explains why he chose to sing this song.
Because he been there..
hes great ! seen him maybe ten times, he just played in my home town in new zealand two nights ago
Also guys Jimmy is a reformed alcoholic and Sia wrote this song about her alcoholic days as she is a reformed alcoholic also, hence 123 drink 123 drink till I swing from the chandelier.
Both Jimmy and Sia happen to come from my hometown, lil old Adelaide, South Australia!!
And both had serious drinking problems..
This man never ceases to literally blow my mind . Unbelievable !
Have never seen this. My dad passed several years ago and he loved watching covers like this. It would have been right down his alley. Loved watching you and your sister react together ❤️ the way Jimmy sang "shame"...he felt that.
In his Cold Chisel days Jimmy proved he had a great voice. Later on he began “screaming” more. Nice to hear he’s still got a great voice.
No he didn’t he never scrame
You 2 are awesome
He also sings DANCING QUEEN by ABBA.
Wait is that diesel on guitar ? What ever it’s a gutsy performance
Yes it was him
@@marypridham3823 thank you xox
You all might disagree with me here, but Jimmy's voice is showing its age here. He topped it in the 70s 80s 90s.
True, but he still gets it done.
His smooth, clean voice was done by the mid 90s.
Just a stunning version ..Amazing
Love the interaction between you and your sister, great reaction video.
Jimmy would smash a bottle of vodka every night back in the day. The Cold Chisel days were pretty hectic.. from memory he gave it all up when he met his wife..
Jimmy Barnes and Sia are both from Adelaide, South Australia.
Whether you like James or not he has to be one of the hardest working singers in the world
When I saw the title I couldn't imagine how he was going to do it, but that change in the arrangement was outstanding itself. 👏
I've loved watching you introducing your sister to what you have already discovered!!
Two greats from Adelaide, Jimmy and SIA..
the common thread between Sia & Jimmy is they're both from Adelaide in South Australia. Sia couldn't make it to the awards so Jimmy did it on her behalf....bravo Sia & Jimmy.
You and the Sis make a good combo
Jimmy is a true legend.
Preacher Jimmy. Do I hear an Amen.
Many label companies found it too expensive to send their groups and singers touring. The airfares to the USA from Australia were huge! So that’s why many never really got a chance. So they made it big in Australia instead.This is why some of the super voices you play didn’t climb into your charts.
Jimmy would relate very closely to the song as he has battled with drinking addiction which is why can sing this song
Just wow
OMG Jimmy singing chandeliar
Lol not a song id ever imagine he'd
Sing
Thanks Nick, 😊
Because to Sia this would have been one of the most exciting highlights in her career to have King JB singing one of her songs and owning it. 🙂 PS Oooooh and now I want to hear King JF singing that song 😉
Our Jimmy can sing any song 💜
