The "Unofficial Australian Anthem" almost every Aussie can sing this word for word and they will sing it with their whole chest. An awesome message that is still so relevent today. Thank you for your reaction video 😁
I actually know more of the words to this song, than our actual national anthem and I think that's true for almost every Aussie. It is universally loved across all classes and ages. It's a brilliant song by a brilliant singer. Interestingly, many black folks in the USA also love it.
@@helenredmond2742 I fully discovered John early last year, just after my 79th birthday. Since then I've been catching up on all the youtube videos - it's a daily diet of magic. Jan. '24. UK. E❤
You pronounced Farnham correctly, as an Australian I can confirm John was & is still popular, he’s a funny guy & so humble & down to earth. Good to know you discovered Farnham’s music
John Farnham, he's our man. ❤ This was played at a 20/20 cricket match last year, when they just play 20 seconds of a song then turn it off. The crowd kept singing when it was turned off and the match had to wait until the crowd stopped singing. It's the 1sy time I've seen the cricket players with a smile on their face when they have to wait for the crowed to settle down lol 🎵🙃😆
Mate... If you ever want to find a bunch of (or any) Aussies anywhere in the world, all you have to do is crank up the volume on this song & we (I’m an Aussie myself) will come FLYING out of the woodwork to sing this 🇦🇺🤟😉🇦🇺. This song has anthem-like status here & I can think of many more songs that would get similar vocal responses from Aussies in a group, like: “Working Class Man” - Jimmy Barnes “The Land Down Under” - Men at Work “It’s a long way to the top (if you wanna rock & roll) - AC/DC “Am I ever gonna see your face again” - The Angels ....If you watch the last one (The Angels), you need to make sure it’s a LIVE version & listen for the crowds’ epic, 6-word response when the lead singer asks “the question”.... Any of my fellow Aussies here will know EXACTLY what I’m talking about 🇦🇺🤘😝🤘🇦🇺
As an Aussie - still send chills down my spine every time I hear this song - so totally should be Australia's national Anthem... I seriosly dont know a single Australian that does not know every word to this song (and I am an Canberran - Aussies will know what I mean)
John is one of the best male singers of all time. His voice range is from another planet. Can you amagin that he stil sings this song in the original key 71 yo. Just amazing. He should have been more notised world wide.
John’s nickname is Jack, the album that song was released on was called Whispering Jack. John is 72 now and still has the voice! By the way, years ago after one such concert, the audience lingered on in the carpark that towered above the rear exit to the concert hall. There were audience members on every level, hanging out looking over and down at the rear exit, waiting for John to appear. After quite some time, he came out with a few people and the whole car park let out a cheer just like they had done inside the concert hall. John spent the next five minutes trying to quieten everyone, and when he succeeded, he shouted back to us at the top of his lungs, “THANK YOU!!!” And the cheers went back up again, 😜👍❤️🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺 We love this guy! Even today, nothing has changed apart from the addition of a belly and a few wrinkles, he’s still our John!
Farnsie’s voice is pure joy. It’s such a privilege to have grown up with his performances. It’s a real treat to know others outside Australia appreciate his talents, too. Whispering Jack was one of his most successful albums and released some of his best known songs. ‘Classic Jack’ is a nod to that album.
That was 1989, Now watch him do exactly the same in a more recent recording, over 30 years later! 😎 So glad you discovered him, he is awesome and has a vault full of golden hits like this! 💖

Since this is Aussies unofficial National Anthem 99.9% of the population knows the words. Those who don't know them, certainly join in with the whoa whoas - just like you did at the end of the song. 🤣😀
this song was John's big return to musical success. His career had dipped but he returned with a bang with this huge hit. As a result of this song, we all refer to John as The Voice. His concerts are renowned - you saw the size of the audience. You are right that he creates involvement and emotion with his audience. As a note - John is sometimes referred to as Jack (from his album and concert tour called Whispering Jack).
Dipped? He was totally washed up before this. Radio refused play this because he was such a has been. They wouldn’t touch him with a ten foot pole he was so not cool. Eventually they reluctantly conceded only because of public demand
John Farnham is now 71 and still delivering the goods he was blessed with. That he's slowed just a little bit should not be a shock to anyone. Let's hope he lives forever because the day he slips away is going to rip out many hearts. Luckily, for old and new fans, we'll always have his incredible body of work to enjoy forever.
I was at this concert ,3rd row was bloody amazing and all these years later still the best concert I've ever been too, whispering jack album still have it on vinyl lol
Whenever possible, pick a live concert clip from John. You can see how he communicates with his audience and it brings out the best in him. Loved your review...and yes, you have the name right. For a different side of him, try Angels, Burn for You or a Touch of Paradise...or When Something is Wrong with my Baby (a duet with Aussie rocker, Jimmy Barnes). Keep this up, you'll be an honorary Aussie.
Yep "Something is wrong with my baby" LIVE is a must see, Barnsey and Farnsey work so well together - especially with a few drops of Diesel!! Edit: just saw Rick's comment that it has been done already, so anyone who hasn't seen it should definitely check it out.... I'm going to watch it again now!
Watching the crowd so engaged could not put finger on what seemed odd, till watched this again, it just hit me no mobile phones trying to film to prove you were at concert, that's what ticket stubs were for, what a difference it makes. Totally agree with artists who say no Phones in venue, hate being at concerts where everyone has phones out it kills the vibe.🙃.
John Farnham (yes you pronounced his name right!) is one of the best voices the world has never heard of. He's over 70 now but still has great pipes. We Aussies are very proud of him 🇦🇺
LOVE your reaction. Thank you. He is known as "The Voice" here in Australia. He is a wonderful man and a massive talent. He is a national treasure in our country.
That concert was even better in person back in the 80s even if you had the nose bleed section you came out wishing the concert hadn't ended then you go back to school and talk nothing but the concert drove the teachers nuts.
We absolutely love him here in Australia he is a great singer and a great humanitarian! The world needs more people like him. He is not fake or full of B.S.! He is solid gold!
Great reaction. If you like this Aussie then you might like Little River Band, Jimmy Barnes, Crowded House, Powderfinger, INXS, Hoodoo Guru's and many more....
This song still brings a chill to the spine... Yes, this is the unofficial Aussie national anthem... but Australia is a very different place now compared to 35 years ago. So disappointing that in the 35 years since it's release Aussies have forgotten how to use THEIR voices when it counts.
Thank you so much for playing this and for your tremendous reaction. Now you know what John Farnham fans have felt for more than 50 years!! Angela Mosley - Sydney Australia
In England and Australia, Jack is another name for John. So one of John's albums is named Whispering Jack. While Classic Jack looks to be the DVD name from this particular concert
The amazing thing about John Farnham is that he can sing the CRAP out of ANY song: anthems, ballads, you name it and he sings them better than anyone else - heavy rock to slow ballads to sad beautiful songs to simple songs. Most people can sing ONE kind of song. John can sing ANY kind of song!! It's not just his singing pipes for particular kinds of songs like it is with most of the better singers. It's the sheer VARIETY of songs he can sing!!
John Farnham a British born Australian mainly stuck to concerts in his home country and quite a few over here in New Zealand. He never really was what you would call a mega star, but throughout Aussie & NZ he is an icon. With such a powerful voice it was the live performances he loved, interacting with his fans, John would strive to make sure the crowd walked away from a stunning concert. He even had a bit of joke here & there. For me he has the most powerful, unique voice I've ever heard. Another thing about him every time he said about retiring, nope he just could not do it. Farnham is in his early 70's and it was only a few years back he did a small concert in Auckland NZ, he never missed a note just as awesome as the time before. I really hope you check out some of his other songs, 'Thats Freedom' 'Reasons' 'Two Strong Hearts' 'When The War Is Over' and the ever popular 'Pressure Down' of course they're my favourites but every time he sings live it's with his fans in mind, also it's more powerful. I hope this gives you more insight to the great icon, at least most of what I know.
Your the Voice is always his FIRST encore performance at the end of his concerts. Then he does another song then at the 2&1/2 hour mark he finishes with Help. Each encore sounds like the beginning of the concert. He has incredible stamina on stage and that voice would sound perfect 5 hours later. You can't get better than our John. Watch Help live and a live duet with our other favourite son Jimmy Barnes.
This is going back to 1986 I think when this song was released & John still had that beautiful long hair. His voice is phenomenal & his concerts as u can see are spectacular. Aussies love him & have done for 50 years. The only other voice I could mention is Russell Hitchcock who fronts another Australian band called Air Supply. They began in 1975 & are still touring, check them out too.
This is Australia 👍🏿🇦🇺 John Farnham is the 'Voice' - I think this song is relevant especially today - won't go into political view, but Aussies staying strong and this song resonates today👏
Kind of mad at myself for how much I love this song after seeing it a bunch of times on reactors pages. Music is so weird, emotionally. Some serious formulas out there.
I actually call him the 8th natural wonder of the world 🌎 😮 He is the G.O.A.T. He can sing any genre and still had the range and the power right up to his cancer op and he is back singing around the house, joking around, dancing. His is a beautiful soul and just makes you feel so good ❤🎉
He can still sing - I've included a link from Queen's site with him, Brian May, Olivia Newton-John and Mitch Tambo from last years Firefight benefit concerts which shows how good he still is. th-cam.com/video/lqjNWuM2z-Q/w-d-xo.html
Love your reactions and the fact that you equally split the screen. All others I've watched have the performer in a little thumbnail while they take up most of the screen. Good on ya. You need to watch it again with your eyes open so you can see him pick up the mic stand. Very cool. But I'm glad you got lost in the music. John just surgery to remove cancer in his mouth. Wish him well and send him love. Be safe everyone.

He's been singing that for thirty five years and still gives it just as much now at 70 as then, and the crowd is even more there for it.
Ehem, ... he started as Johnny Farnham with "Sadie the Cleaning Lady" back in 1968 so he's been doing this for 53 years now! 😎
@@4adgray2 yes, but I specifically said 'singing that', that being this song, which was released in '86, which was... 35 years ago.

His version of The Beatles' 'Help' from this concert may be the greatest vocal performance I have ever seen.
This reactor has already done Help...and I think it is from this tour! Check his back catalogue.

I’m sure if they voted most of us Aussies would agree ❤️🇦🇺
Agree - after tripping on my girt...🤣 nice soil though - yeah this should be our anthem. Aussie's unite!
The song is about DV and really isn’t suitable for a National Anthem. Absolutely fabulous song.

The most loved and respected Australian artist, just a beautiful man!!
If watch him sing this live now 30 something years later, he sounds the same! Amazing talent
He has now been diagnosed with cancer and has had major surgery. May he make a speedy recovery

He has an amazing rapport with his audience.
Finally managed to see him about 5 years ago. Still amazing.
Everytime you cry or his songs with Southern Sons
Lost in the music is spot on. Johns vocals anointed pipes call it what you wish combined with that orchestra blows my mind on repeat. Just super
Have seen John live so many times and have always walked away saying that’s the best one yet! Loving your reactions to Farnsey!

What a massive song live.
This is how music is magic! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
What a great voice John farnham has and I bet he could sing any type of music.
He can sing anything Just look up all his concerts on utube They are still amazing The fund raising fir Rwanda is great
Actually John can sing any kind of music I've seen him do it and its beautiful.
That’s how we have a concert in Australia 🇦🇺 The Voice will probably have another final tour this year. He’s the best! 💖
He's our Aussie legend.... we are so proud of John and love him to bits...
That concert was even better in person back in the 80s even if you had the nose bleed section you came out wishing the concert hadn't ended then you go back to school and talk nothing but the concert drove the teachers nuts.
There are a few other voices from NZ/Aus of that era worth hearing too. Jimmy Barnes, Dragon and, my favourite, Noiseworks.

Whispering jack is One of John’s famous Albums - jack live on stage classic Aussie song 🎵✨✨🇦🇺✨✨ decades long

We absolutely love him here in Australia he is a great singer and a great humanitarian! The world needs more people like him. He is not fake or full of B.S.! He is solid gold!
John Farnham - First concert I ever attended as a kid. To my US friends this guy is a legend. Thankfully he is still alive and with us.
Great reaction. If you like this Aussie then you might like Little River Band, Jimmy Barnes, Crowded House, Powderfinger, INXS, Hoodoo Guru's and many more....
Glad you enjoyed our national anthem.
When this song comes on, every aussie stops, raises a lighter and sings.
