Contrary to popular belief, it wasn't the closing song of this particular recorded concert. This was the closing song of this particular encore. You see him on the DVD going backstage after singing this song and listening to the cheers of the crowd. After the crowd and some of the orchestra started cheering 'Sadie, Sadie', he came back on stage again for another encore and sang Sadie and finished with 'It's a Long Way to the Top (if you want to Rock and Roll)'. This makes his stamina even more amazing! Quite a few people think it was the last song though! :-)

John Farnham is Australian rock royalty. His voice is clear and powerful and ranges from A2 to G5. He can sing in over 20 styles. He is career in music is 5-6 decades long. He is the consummate professional showman who has the best of singers and band backing him. And he shows his appreciation to them. John is also humble, playful, funny, energetic, engaging and charismatic and has the audience with him all the way. Always watch and hear John LIVE and his concerts with The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra are wonderful. There are lots of YT clips to choose from. John has just had major surgery and our thoughts and prayers now are for his good recovery. He is well-loved in Oz. (P.S. Did you know that the accent in some words in the South African accent are the same as an Australian accent? It must be something to do with being 'down under'!)

He's been on the Australian entertainment scene for fifty years and has no airs or graces. He is what you see: a top bloke. Sadly, he's doing it tough after marathon surgery for cancer of the throat and mouth but he'll fight all the way. Aussies love him...and now so do you.

Not quite true! I live in Berlin and have known and loved John for many years. It was John's decision not to become world famous. His record company wanted to market it worldwide, but he didn't want to. With the success of Youre the voice, he toured all over the world and was no longer at home. But he had a family and loves life on a farm. He didn't want to give that up. That's stupid for me here in Germany, but it makes him so human.

So....John is 73yrs of age now.....and as of last week, he was diagnosed with a cancerous tumor in his mouth. He underwent a 12hr surgery to remove it and reconstruct part of his jaw, which went very well, and all the tumor was removed successfully. John being the legend that he is....he was joking with the medical team before going into surgery. He is a beloved artist here in Australia....and all of us were totally shocked when we heard the news, and held our breath all last Tuesday when he was in surgery. He is a freak of nature, as far as singing goes....and has been blessed by God with an extraordinary voice. In fact, he is lovingly been dubbed...The Voice here in Oz. He can sing any genre of music, and can belt out notes effortlessly. This video I think was back in the 80s. He was still belting out the high notes even just a couple of years ago...! He is a very down to earth guy, and very loved here. I can see straight away by your reactions....that you appreciate the amazing singer he is. Welcome to the world of Farnsey.....

He's from the very neighbourhood I live in , a plumber turned singer in the 60s. Sadly recovering from throat and mouth cancer and not likely to perform again but we're glad he's alive.

It always fills my emotional cup watching people discover John, but today it made me weep, knowing we’ll likely never hear him live again as he very recently underwent a surgery that will probably prohibit it. A running gag for literal decades was John announcing this “final” tour, which no believed after a while, but we’d all buy tickets anyway, because of exactly what you’re experiencing right now. And now, what I’d give to be able to tease people about buying Farnsey tickets… 💔 Absolute. Deadset. Legend.

John Farnham is a LEGEND here in Australia. Same concert - Playing to Win - Check it out, it is outstanding. Also his duet video with Jimmy Barnes - Something is wrong with my baby - another eye opener. Enjoy this talented amazing person!

John Farnham ( Farnsey ) is a living Australian national treasure who sadly is recovering in hospital after a life threatening operation , any Australian will happily tell you that Farnsey is the best male singer ever . Anyone who has experienced a night out at one of his concerts will confirm that they were the most entertained they've ever been . John Lennon ofthe Beatles said this was the way he and Paul wanted this song performed but their management wanted the faster version . Farnsey had worldwide success with his anthem song YOUR THE VOICE ,covered by a lot of artists including Celine Dion , he would have been bigger overseas but preferred to be home with his family. . Check out some of his other work but make sure its from a live show as they are spectacular everyone on stage with him band members and backup singers are all recognised Australian talent in their own right . Thank you both for agreat reaction to a great Australian .

We Aussies are so proud of John. He had been part of the Australian music scene for over 50 years. He is an amazing and very humble guy. Thank you for reacting to him. You should check out "You're The Voice". Australia's unofficial anthem

Richard Marx described John Farnham as his inspiration. Get his playlist from Sadie right through until now. It's a journey that takes you from the lowest points in your life, to the highest. And all the words that can be used to describe his talent, aren't enough. He is THE VOICE.

John has been singing since the 60s but his peak was through the mid 80s to the 2000s when he performed to sell out concerts throughout the country and had hit after hit on the charts. John is a phenomenal singer and the passion he puts into each and every performance is stunning. He has surrounded himself with absolute top musicians and they are featured with various solos through his concerts. John is currently in our hearts during his cancer battle. Aged 73, he is still considered the best, the greatest of Australian singers and that's something considering all the talented performers here. Thanks for such a great reaction to our John

He's a great bloke, very down to earth with a comical sense of humour too. He never gives a bad performance & has sold out concerts throughout Australia all the time. His cds are great to listen to but U have to see him 'live' for the full impact. All John's fans are praying that he recovers from his recent surgery & will be able to sing again.

In my opinion John Farnham has the best voice ever because he sings any genre of music. So unique, so powerful and the range just awesome to see him live. He is 'the voice' of Australia The Voice being his best selling single check that one out, he is loved in Aussie as well as New Zealand. Also from his 'Last Time' tour live When The War Is Over kzitem.info/news/bejne/o5uhyKqihax-ipg an outstanding performance. Another one has an Aussie icon in it and that is When Something Is Wrong With My Baby it's beautifully sung by John along with Jimmy Barnes, here's the link kzitem.info/news/bejne/yp6pzKxnhaegfpg.

Hi guys, Aussie here and I just saw your reaction to John, and pushed the subscribe button. I'm one of the very privileged Aussies who grew up with John in my teen years. I've had the absolute pleasure of being in the audience 17 times, and they were the best times of my life....PLEASE would you do me the honour of reacting to "John Farnham and Jimmy Barnes" "When something is wrong with my baby" ? . Thanks guys

John Farnham is the gentleman of the Aussie stage and he always gave so much to the audience at his concerts. To think this was a live performance no lipsync back in those days. I saw John live at Expo 88 in Brisbane and the emotion he delivered in his presence on stage was felt by us all.
