Now you MUST also check out the same song on a T V variety show named, 'Hey, Hey, It's Saturday,' which was an extremely popular show for many years, watched all around Australia. It is a better, more intimate version and the visuals and sound are clearer on it and 'Barnsey, Farnsey and Diesel-y' do a beautiful a capella chorus at the end. Please react to this video soon as Aussies can never get enough of these guys and reactions to them. Love and healing blessings to John and Jimmy during their recuperation from surgeries.

But technically that wasn't 'fully' live. The vocals were live, but the band was 'miming' the studio recorded music track. Hey Hey did that a bit, even though they 'crossed' over to them.

not sure if anybody noticed but in the first couple of lines of Barnsey singing you can still hear Farnsies voice even though he is 3 feet away from the microphone. and neither of these guys have had any formal singing coaching and I know Farnsie was a smoker and still has a set of pipes like that.

Lovin’ ya work, Texas! Thank you! Diesel (Mark Denis Lizotte) was an artist in his own right before he first met Jimmy. His first successful band was Johnny Diesel and The Injectors. He’s an American-born Australian from Fall River, Massachusetts who emigrated to Australia when he was 5 years old. When Jimmy and Jane met Diesel, they liked him so much that they match-made Diesel with Jane’s little sister. Diesel is now Jimmy’s brother in law, lol.

You're so right about the heart felt passion and respect pouring forth from the lyrics and vocalisations and the accompanying dynamics of the emotional musicality of this performance. Yes that's about the WOW of it, ALL of this talent. Sure puts " Slap your bitch up." try-hard to grab attention attempts, of greedy music industry manipulator's pathetic efforts, in the bin. I love light happy and/ or cheeky love songs too. Never those with designs on the division and disruption of the social emotional intelligence of the status quo. Thanks Texas for the inspiration and platform here to get up on my soap box and have a long held in rant and spray about this subject.

Thank you for this, what a treat. It was an equal joy to be at one of John's concerts when Jimmy unexpectedly came onstage and they sang this song. John's comment to the audience as Jimmy left the stage was "I got more out of that than you did." So great to see the respect and support. Having been used to this camaraderie, I was disgusted at an Elton John concert where for some strange reason he went on a between-songs rant about Bette Midler, finishing with "She can't f-ing sing." Respect lost.

My favourite performance of this song is from the 1991ARIA Awards; and the a Capella at the end, really tops it off. John is great doing duets, and my favourite one is with Olivia Newton John; they sing Please Don't Ask Me from The Main Event Concert, John released this song previously, singing it by himself.

Texas Love, you were spot on with your assessment of 'witnessing greatness.' I grew up in Australia in the 70s, 80s and these two legends, plus of course Chisel, AccaDacca (what Aussies call ACDC) the Angels, Rose Tattoo,, etc and so many fantastic bands from Oz and NZ that never made it across the pond except ACDC. Our radio was filled with their songs and you could go and see each of these bands in a pub or arena almost every year. We were truly spoiled Down Under, and yet we didnt realise it until their time was over. A true case of 'you don't know what you've got until it's gone.'

A little trivia for you. Those 3 masculine men are all happily married. Farnsey will celebrate his & Jill's 50th wedding anniversary this year. Barnsy & Jane have been married for 44 years, while Diesel and Jep have been together for 33 years. Jane and Jep are sisters, originally from Thailand, so Jimmy and Diesal are brothers in law. I'll let you investigate what all the grown children do for a living, lol!
