![John Farnham | We're No Angels" [Live] from the 'Classic Jack Live!' | Reaction](/img/n.gif)
Singers of today please take note THIS IS HOW YOU SHOULD SING not relying on electronic doctoring of the notes this man is a MASTER SHOWMAN
"Thank you, Melbourne. Good night. Be careful" This extraordinary performance was his encore, after 2 hours of belting out his greatest hits, he did this. Astonishingly gifted singer.
With another encore after this one. He was like the energiser bunny!
This guys voice is probably the greatest I have EVER heard in 66 years.
This boy sings "Black Dog" as a WARM UP! The voice on him is insane.
One of Australia's greatest ever!!!!
They don’t call him The Voice for nothing. No one can out sing John Farnham, any genre. His concerts are epic. He is the GOAT. He’s also a great guy, very generous to his backup singers and musicians.
Best male vocalist in the world at the time. We knew it here in Australia. Being rediscovered by the rest of the world now thanks to TH-cam.
Greatest voice you'll ever want to hear. Best live performer to boot!!
John Lennon said this is way the song should of been sung
Johns a real performer.
Our Farnsey can sing a tender ballad or a full throttle and always have completely control over his voice. Even now in his 70s. I agree with always doing a live performance. He's just a natural entertainer and ALWAYS shows appreciation for not only the audience but the people performing with him. Farnsey is always happy to support another artist. ❤
I was at this concert, and have seen him perform many times. The skill, power, tone, technique and delivery is incredible. He gives 150% at every performance and we love him for it. He is truly the greatest we have seen on stage and he has been killing it since the 1960s. Will never be another like him.
And that's just what he did at the end of a 2 hour concert. More perfection.
It wasn't even the end of the concert. There was another 2 song encore after this one!
I was at this concert. John always, always puts on a great show and surrounds himself with all the very best musicians. He never disappoints. Not even now in his 70's. He is consistently brilliant and a really nice, down to earth guy as well. Always a quality performer who gives an unforgettable concert experience
We Aussies Iove our John !
Us Aussies are spoilt with such great musical talent and John Farnham was/is an icon. We love him 💖
Man! What a voice! Insanely powerful and melodic. And John Farnham is such a showman!
Vocally, John sings from his heart, and with supreme talent.
Better than that, John is an absolutely incredible bloke.
He has an amazing vocal range..
Feels good to be Aussie!!
Farnsey! There's a feast of material out there...always choose live because Farnsey always excels on stage. This version takes a Beatles song to a whole new level.
So you have discovered our Johnny Farnham. Like the BeeGees he has been around forever. Over here he is known as the voice. Another Aussie icon.
i would call it emotions not a scream , glad you enjoy our aussie star
The King of Australia
John Farnham is so good that professional voice teachers all around the world use this performance as a display of how to sing.
he one is only one of a few singers on this planet that sounds way better live than in his records/albums.
Amazing how many people were packed in that stadium. What a great performance.
Holds approx 12,500 seated patrons. Farnham concerts almost always sold out quickly.
Every concert packed out 🌟🌟
The Aussie Legend that is John Farnham. I was at that concert
Me too ! Great wasn’t it
@@narellesmith7932 sure was 😍
Wow very good. I had not heard of him before now but very talented guy. Love those Aussies!
I see that, Bee Gees Fan. Good on you.
John sang with The Little River Band, when Glenn Shorrock left for a time in the USA. But he’s better with his own concerts with his band he’s had for years. Always wanted to be home in Aus with his wife and boys. All his concerts were always booked out all over Aus. Oh and Germany. Rad the movie and others, can’t remember, did main vocals for those movies. Yes we love Johns talent and fun 😊
He is an Australian treasure👌❤️
He is the complete package and the ultimate performer. Another Australian artist with that scream is Jimmy Barnes worth checking out. In fact he and John do a duet together “when something is wrong with my baby”
@CC na he doesn’t scream he belts
He is our Aussie Nation Treasure! He can sing anything and do it so well! Love him always 💖
You should watch this whole concert. And this was the last song and he still belted it out beautifully. He’s got so many great hits react 2 him a lot more
That was great! 🥰. Thanks to whoever suggested this. Someone new to check out. 👍
Once you go down this rabbit hole there is no turning back. Check out “you’re the voice”, “burn for you”’ “that’s freedom” “ a touch of paradise” “when the war is over” “when something is wrong with my baby” always check out his live performances
@@georgeibrahim7945 I thought that name sounded familiar and then he started singing, I knew I had heard him before. I remember when he was in Little River Band , owned No Reins for a long time and bought Little River Band box set The Capital Years 1979-1986.includes the three albums he was on with them.Always loved When The War Is Over as well as the rest of No Reins.
He is a very versatile singer and seems to be able to do all genres if music.
Thank you for reacting to this awesome performance! It is truly a gem!
John is a humongous star in Australia with a string of hits starting in the late 60s. Late 80s and 90s were his best time. How this man was not a huge star all over the world I will never know. Every song on albums Whispering Jack, Age of Reason, Chain Reaction and Then Again are keepers. Stand out tracks You're the Voice, Age of Reason, Burn for You, That's Freedom, Seemed Like a Good idea. So many good tunes to check out. I envy you getting to hear them for the first time. Wish I could get that feeling again. Living Legend and Icon.
Hi Pop Defender,
Thank you for your suggestions of songs to listen to, I sure will research them. I appreciate your suggestions. I don't remember hearing his name before but he sings great. Thank you again, stay safe, healthy and happy.
His voice is amazing and i love 'You're The Voice'❤️🤩
Thanks for doing a reaction to John farnham.
A absolute legend and one of a few who can sing better live .
Plus a good comedian on stage and down to earth Aussie as well.
Hope you do more reactions to him.
So glad you did this version and loved your expressions every time he belted a new note. Notice how far he sings from the mic and still it's loud!
As someone who saw John and his band live in the 80s,his 'live' performances are better than film clips because of his incredible stage presence. He is a genuinely nice guy, doesn't take himself seriously (Aussies really appreciate that in a 'celebrity'), and is an entertainer and showman.
As others have said, be sure to react to the many other songs he has on TH-cam, as well as Jimmy Barnes (there are a few duets with Jimmy and John).
That performance was nothing short of exceptional. Singing such a classic song as Help rearranged brilliantly and sung with such power and emotion was inspirational... Fantastic that you reviewed it so the rest of the world can share in this guy's talent... Well Done! :)
Thanks for the awesome reaction bro, no one sings better live then this dude. Please do a lot more reactions to Farnsey
Not many people get to count in a Symphony Orchestra with just a nod over their shoulder at the conductor.
Great reaction man. So many more to see from him.
Thanks for that awesome reaction.. John is an absolute legend here in Australia. We love him ❤️❤️
He's good mates with Olivia Newton John and they have performed together a few times over the years. They were together singing DARE TO DREAM at the Sydney Opening Ceremony of the Olympics 2000. They also worked together with Anthony Warlow (who was the Phantom in Phantom of the Opera in Australia) in the Main Event. All is on youtube. The other great song in this concert is YOU'RE THE VOICE - again, on youtube. He also does some wonderful work that is on youtube with Jimmy Barnes, Australia's King of Rock. John was born in England in 1949 and came out to Australia living in Melbourne in the 1950's. Same thing applies with ONJ who came to Melbourne with her family at 3 years of age and she was born in 1948. So they both started their Aussie careers in the 1960's and John's break out song was SADIE THE CLEANING LADY in 1967 (again on youtube) when he was 18. He is over 70 now and still performs from time to time. His long time best friend and manager recently died so he might be slowing down now. I don't see him worrying about getting another manager somehow. BTW the Beatles heard this rendition from John and loved it and thought it was better than the original.
find the voice andlong way to the top in the same live concert, unreal.
Just found this reaction. I hope you react to more John Farnham. there are so many Great live performances to see. Especially duets WITH jimmy Barnes and Olivia Newton John ..
He is an Aussie treasure 👏👏👏thanks
Love me some John Farnham....seen him live three times, twice in Melbourne and once in my hometown Bendigo. Complete package, showman, comedian and overall nice guy!!
Oh my goodness,. 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶. So beautiful 💞. Thank you Chad. 💔
I could watch this a million times and never tire 💕
I love your pure honest reaction’s
Brilliance…
His vocals are always pure. Doesn't need the microphone up to his mouth. Paul McCartney said this was the best version of Help. Lots more to listen too of Farnsy
Thanks for a great reaction. Doesn't get any better than John live! It's wonderful that you make your image on the screen smaller than the artists video. And your style of reaction is very enjoyable and not annoying or intrusive. My first time watching you and I'll definitely watch more.
You would love Jimmy Barnes (Barnsey) and John Farnham (Farnsey) with Diesel on guitar, singing “When something is wrong with my baby” (live version). Proud Aussie here! 👍🏼👍🏼🇦🇺🇦🇺
He doesn’t scream, but if he wanted to, I’m sure it would be the most melodic you’ve ever heard 😉
Made the Beatles look sad huh? John had number one albums in 5 consecutive decades. He is one of a kind and 72 years old now. At 70 his voice sounded just the same, they didn’t have to change any notes in his music.
Watch him sing You’re The Voice at the same concert with the Orchestra. His band was there too and they are his back up singers. John can sing any genre of music, even Opera with Anthony Warlow. He is funny and kind, he is loved.
This was great
Enjoyed this very much. I don't remember hearing his name before. Thank you for featuring this artist it was great, I appreciate it.
He’s one of the best male vocalists of all time- he just never touched down in the US much.. in Australia we call him the Voice. Have a look at some of his other stuff!
He is so loved in Australia; a brilliant voice, always gives credit to his back up singers and band/orchestra, has a wacky sense of humor and is just an all round great bloke. Always watch his live performances as they are fantastic. John Farnham - Angels LIVE 2000 provides some insight into this.
@@JB-zs1oq
Hi John I will definitely look into Angles Live 2000, thanks for the suggestion. I learn so much from the comments here it's great. I must ask what is "bloke" is it a term in Australia. Thank you stay safe, healthy and happy, God bless.
@@lindagarcia8826 Hi Linda. Bloke in Australia in general refers to every day or common people. It is very often preceded by a positive description appropriate to we everyday mortals e.g. a great or funny or helpful or kind, bloke. An Aussie version would be a "bonza bloke" meaning a great guy. Like a lot of Aussie slang it is not used as often as it was in the past. Stay safe and happy and enjoy exploring the music of John Farnham
@@JB-zs1oq
Hi JB, my apologies for calling you John oops forgive me.
Thank you for explaining the term Bloke to me, I think I might use the term at family gatherings and sharing the Australian definition too. I hope and pray all is well for you during these difficult and crazy times we are living in. I live in USA and hoping and praying for positive times here.
This weekend it's my plan to listen and research John Farhans music, so far I'm off to a good start thanks to Chad for featuring him and I'm looking forward to the experience. Thank you again for explaining such a great word for me. Enjoy a beautiful day today. Stay safe, healthy and happy.
The best version of that song ever. He's so perfect live that it makes the albums seem trivial even though they're brilliant. Only the best singers sound better live. Most singers albums are better than they're live performances. Not John. He's perfection personified
Another thing to consider about this performance is that it came at the END of a 2 hr concert. John is one of the best singers in the world. Bar none. PS It's pronounced Mel-bn Melbn!
Then in turn we have to consider he still had more energy to give and came back on stage to sing another encore after Help. That encore included the 'roof shaking' energy of It's a Long Way to the Top to end the concert that particular night!
He's been around since late 60s. Plenty of other great Aussie artists to explore. Only a handful went to the US.
He’s Sublime! I was lucky enough to see him perform live ten times. Look up When The War is Over with Jimmy Barnes! You’re only starting to see John, he just gets better & Better, see, how he didn’t even have the microphone close to his mouth. John Farnham is one in million performer & person. ❤️❤️❤️ him.
Love this man
Wow. You are in great company there Mr summers. The legendary Barry Gibb once described John Farnham as one of the greatest singers of all time. That is some weighty endorsement. This is taking me back to Oz. Back to my teens with John Farnham and the Bee Gees. What a time.
Saw John's name and I was on it in a flash! Such an awesome singer. Another singer with incredible range and control is Gabriel Henrique. Have listened to a number of his songs... he has done covers of songs made popular by Mariah Carey, Celine Dion, and many others... and sings in their key! He's self-taught. He's a Brazilian sensation that people are just beginning to discover here. You should hear a particular song he sings in Portuguese... "Fidelidade." He will blow you away in just the first 20 seconds!
Right there with mate.
The Voice.
sO GLAD YOU REACTED TO THIS SO i COULD fIND jOHN AND EXPERIENCE THE SOUND OF HIM IN 1981!
My mum (now age 97) never was a fan. She said he screamed too much. He is simply on the very top shelf of male vocalists I've come across.
I've never missed his shows. Just wonderful always and makes people so happy 😊
This song, done at the end of this concert, was a kind of thank-you to the audience and his fans for being there to support him. John had a rough time during the mid to late 70s when his career dwindled. He eventually made a comeback, and this was the single that did it, a re-working of The Beatles, "Help". John Lennon loved it and said that he wished that "The Beatles" had done it this way. John went on to an incredible music career gaining many awards and having the highest selling album," Whispering Jack," which went 24X platinum, and more albums and fame. He never sought much fame overseas as he valued his wife, family, friends and the Oz music scene. Sadly, his manager and friend, Glenn Wheatley, who helped John's comeback, died recently. "Farnsey" is respected and loved by Aussies. He is humble, funny, appreciative of his fans, musicians and backing vocalists. And, of course, sooooooo talented! He is charismatic on stage and has the audience with him all the way Because of this you must always watch him LIVE because studio videos do not do him justice. Please react to more of him and you will have many Aussies viewers.
John Farnham and Olivia Newton John sang a duet at the opening of the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney.
Yes one of my favourite performances to watch👌🎶👏
From my home town...an Aussie legend! If you really want to give yourself a treat, check him out doing a duet with another Aussie legend, Jimmy Barnes, LIVE on Hey, Hey it's Saturday doing "When something is wrong with my baby"....they make me proud to be Australian.
John Lennon said this is how he thought it should sound after hearing Farnseys version. Paul McCartney says it is the best version of the song he has heard, John Farnham Living Legend' Known as " The Voice".
Mate loved your reaction to John ,
he is a national treasure in Australia.
Another mighty performance is
When the War is Over
The Last Time tour 2003 with the
MSO. Unbelievably good.
Bet you can understand all the hype now. Amazing hey!! 💞🇦🇺
Wow! He is so good. He was quite popular in Australia. I never heard of him until you did a reaction on him a few months ago. I wonder why he didn't come to the states or to England. Good one Chad.
John Farnham was happy to stay in Australia where he valued his family life and friends, and the music scene here. Also he was not prepared to compromise himself to the demands of the "higher-ups" in the overseas music scene. I know that he did a concert in Germany which is on YT. He had hits in some countries in Europe.
Watching people discover John, especially his mastery of live performance, legit clears my skin 😂 welcome to the rabbit hole, friend. My recs are:
Gethsemene from Jesus Christ Superstar
When Something Is Wrong With My Baby with Jimmy Barnes
Help, his stunning cover of the Beatles song
When The War Is Over (his phenomenal cover of fellow Aussie legends Cold Chisel)
Burn For You
Reminiscing (with the Little River Band)
Please Don’t Ask Me
Age of Reason
And as other have already told you, when it comes to John? Live. Always live.
Nice choice mate.
You may have noticed the 2 lady back up singers in this clip.
Check out the song he did with one of these. AMAZING GRACE. or
ANGELS. Also he has a lot of hits and duets over the years.
Keep up the great reactions.
don,t know if world has heard but john has just had part of jaw removed with cancer. it is heart breaking when he is such a talented man. please send prayers for him.
This wasn't 1981, it was 1989 I believe. He released this version of Help on an album called Uncovered in 1980 though.
I think we Australians are chasing you reactors around the internet, smugly thinking to ourselves, "Yes. He's amazing. He's ours and we haven't missed a thing he's done in the last 50 years." How lucky are we that John has been satisfied to live here, raise his boys here with his wife Jill and give us so much entertainment. We have others. Shoosh. We'd like to keep them.
What a voice, sent shivers down my spine. Loved the audience participation in this epic concert. Would have loved to have been there. Agree with the comment about Jimmy Barnes, another great performer cut from the same cloth. Wonderful reaction Chad thanks x
Great reaction, glad you enjoyed John voice. He is called The Voice in Australia even by his peers, always pitch perfect. Always react to live performance, and he can sing every genre rock, jazz, pop, country, blues anything. He is amazing.
More live Farnsy bro 🙏
Just to add some more amazing context to this video - Farnham was still smoking when this was recorded. He smoked for almost 30 years and didn't quit 'till 1992! He said that not smoking added even more range to his voice, so, hard as it is to believe, this could have been even better!
Power, and Control. One of few performers who do not need studio magic to sound GREAT. I think The Beatles would like this remake of their classic.
My favourite part about any concert is when the whole crowd is singing together. That feels to me like exactly what music was created for. Some of the best moments for me are the huge crowd singing Bohemian Rhapsody before, was it the Offspring,came out for their gig? And any Koolulum performance that has ever been made, and the Aussies singing Land Down Under at the soccer international matches. There is nothing like it.
Do us all a favour and review the live version of his self composed ballad 'Burn For You'. He wrote it for his wife of many years, Jill, in relation to how he missed he when he was on tour.
He is a one of a kind singer and performer, definetly one of the best male singers of all time. He should have been more notised world wide. Another australien singer to carey his legacy in modern time is guy sebastian. Check out his live studio performence of a song called battle scars . He is crazy good. PS. John farnham is still performing and delivers amazing vocals at the age of 72.
It's a very famous song, first time to see and hear it live.great reaction thanks chad
Hi Chad
Seen you were reacting to this and hit subscribe. I listen to this over and over and it never gets old.
Someone else mentioned John Farnham and Jimmy Barnes doing a duet “when something is wrong with my baby” you will not be disappointed checking out either of our Aussie iconic legends. Both are loved and revered by us aussies. Prepare to go down a rabbit hole.
Great job mate
Please try and watch his performance of "You're the Voice" with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. Legendary!
This was the last song in a 2hr + set, at a time John was smoking two packs a day. He was the lead singer of Little River Band for a short time (Playing to Win). He has amazing history in musical theatre (Jesus Christ Superstar 1992) and his multi platinum Whispering Jack was the first Australian CD release. Having said all that he is probably most loved for where it all started for him in the 60s with Sadie the Cleaning Lady. While this concert with the MSO was in the 90s, John first released Help in 1980. As unbelievable as it seems, it was his final roll of the dice after having been effectively written off by the Australian music industry for being too scmaltzy and nothing but a teen idol. If it didn't succeed he would have been lost to Australian music forever. As it stands, the rest is history.
If you want more Australian genius, look up a duet with John and Jimmy Barnes (When Something is Wrong with My Baby), Vanessa Amorossi with Natural Woman... buckle up for that... and pretty much anything by Tina Arena.
thank for this, what a great reaction! I just subscribed because I can't wait for you to see more of him and some other great Aussie Icons! 🇦🇺
Such stage presence & passion. This was the last song in a long concert & he's just as good as the first song. Love John. Must admit that it's only since I've been listening to reactors that I've understood how awesome his vocal abilities are. You are right, it's best to listen live as you get to see his audience reactions as well as his vocal range. I wish I'd been in Melbourne at that concert 💕
Loved watching this :) thank you for reacting to John x
