Another New Zealand singer who relocated to Australia, also it's the other way around , Terence trent Darby has a tone like Mark Willams, Marks been singing since the 70s.
Mark is still performing. He was backing vocals for Jenny Morris and worked with INXS. Thus was a massive hit here in Australia in 1999. Mark also does a live version of Jackie Wilson's Your Love Keeps Lifting Me Higher and Higher with a backing choir, which is simply awesome. ♥️
Wow. I'm an Australian and have LOVED this song since its release. However, I always thought that Mark Williams was an American. Another great talent from our sister country 🥝💚
A New Zealand singer who these days fronts NZ rock band Dragon, one of the greatest kiwi bands ever. Huge success in Australia with their original lead singer Marc Hunter who passed away in 1998. Marc Hunter was a legend, a true charismatic star. If you like Neil Finn, you’d like Marc. Williams is ok, but Marc Hunter is irreplaceable IMO.
I'm Australian and still play Dragon. I was born in 1982 but was bought up listening to them. I think my favorite is "Are you old enough?" It's too hard to pick. My mate got to see them live at the high school we attended only I didn't as I attend years later. Passed way too young. I cried so hard. I love how much our countries love each other's music and it's kinda like we share lol. A fav of my late Dad's and mine to listen to together was Slice of Heaven by Dave Dobbyn and the herbs XO
This may be the first time you have reacted to Mark but its not the first time on your channel he has been in a few videos you have reacted to as a backing singer
The one and only! Mark Williams is an Aussie and Kiwi treasure!

Kool that your finally starting to discover some of our kiwi talent. Mark was a prominant New Zealand entertainer fron the 70/80's era.
Man this brings back some memories, saw him live when I was a child in the late 70's

He was backup singer for Ian Moss when he was touring during Tuckers Daughter when it was a hit.
Kiwi singer Margaret Ulrich was a star who faded too young. RIP Marg ❤️🥰
I think TTD got some inspiration from seeing Mark Williams from Northland Aotearoa
The Cuzzin Mark Williams, also check the group he sang in Dragon, Churr.
Dude, you gotta watch your pitch - you sing sharp a lot of the time, and your vibrato pulls you very sharp.
