John Farnham - All Our Sons and Daughters + Credits (High Quality) | Reaction

[@sharyndoyle6362]

I love your appreciation of real vocal artists. No mics in their ears, just strong voices and talent. They also have individual voices, not like today !

[@traviscarlson6718]

Ladies and gentlemen this is why he's Held the Title of "THE VOICE" for almost 40 Years ive said before and ill say it again Unlike singers these days John Uses No Auto tune or Any machine etc to Improve His Voice He even Doesn't use NO Falsetto despite What some of y'all people say Think of the Bee gees They sing in complete Falsetto now think of how John Sings its NOTHING absolutely Nothing Alike to the Bee gees in the way of using Falsetto ...John has a Naturally gifted singing voice Able to Hit notes Most singers think impossible or have difficulty reaching He is so gifted that his Voice Fits all Genres of Music Ive been a Farnham Fan since 2010 That was the first time i discovered him in Intermediate school (Middle school) ive Heard him sing Pop, Rock, Country, Jazz, Blues, Soul, Opera, Etc the list goes On The Best way i can Describe Johns voice is "ONE SIZE FITS ALL" no matter what style of music you give him i think you'll find his Voice is Compatible Will all types ....What an Absolutely Talented Gifted Singer/Songwriter what an Inspiration ❤️❤️❤️👌👌

[@queenslanddiva]

You're right - John has one of the finest voices ever to grace the world stage. There's no question. But there's absolutely no reason to disrespect the Bee Gees. They're entirely different.

[@traviscarlson6718]

@@queenslanddiva No i meant no disrespect to the Bee Gees i was just making a Comparison many people ive Spoken to say John does use Falsetto and to that i say BOLLOCKS absolutely Bullshit Tbh a Comparison is the Bee gees they are Falsetto But Johns voice sounds nothing like a Singer who uses Falsetto... Thats the Comparison i was making i truly meant do disrespect

[@queenslanddiva]

@@traviscarlson6718 ok! Cause they are amazing too! 🙂

[@traviscarlson6718]

@@queenslanddiva Yeah Absolutely they are Absolutely fantastic when i talk to people About John they be like oh he used Falsetto or he cant sing as well as he used to ...Well Thats Bullcrap Because ive been to John's concert and At the time he was 69 And he sounded exactly the same as he did in this video and he still sings like this

[@RockhoundBlack]

John definitely uses falsetto, albeit rarely - there’s an interview where he talked about his falsetto not being particularly strong up until about the Age of Reason album, and he worked on it to strengthen it.

[@AussieDebb]

When I see your face after that first note I just think to myself Well he does warm up singing Black Dog 😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤

[@CoolCoyote]

what a fukn good song, never heard this before

[@kristyholden2947]

I remember as a kid everyone talking about John Farnhams band. They were known as the best of the best.

[@tymiklic6463]

get well soon john..we are all thinking and praying for your recovery..you know how much oz loves ya mate..

[@DavidSweetnam]

I think we took this band and even John for granted back then. Watching this now, every musician on the stage is wonderful! I was there too for this concert after finishing high school :)

[@JoSedunary]

True that... we didn't really notice how good they were until we got to go to the live concerts... his band has always been exceptional...

[@markouskovic9495]

one of my favorite songs of his.. the great thing about Farnham is he can literally sing any style of music

[@leroy270677]

Classic. I love how you recognise John Farnhams talent and voice. You can tell you really enjoy it. Well music in general, obviously. I might start a channel, 'Melbourne Baker Reacts to That Singer Reacting to John Farnham Songs.' Instant hit!!

[@gerardroll6468]

Back in the day when John’s albums were riding high on the Aussie charts, his live concerts were truly an experience to savour & cherish, especially when he’d begin cracking jokes about his mother-in-law, a woman he’d often refer to as the Dragon 🤣🤣🤣

[@abbeyshell23]

I lived around the corner from her. It’s all true! But his father-in-law was a lovely man.

[@gerardroll6468]

@@abbeyshell23 … I would always bust a gut laughing at his mother-in-law jokes as I could so relate to how he felt at the time but my mother-in-law now is a lovely lady who I get along great with now, especially since our daughter was born 17 months ago, making her a grandmother for the 4th time. She’s also a retired maternity nurse, so any medical help we need is “on call” 24/7. I remember John saying one time how his gags about his mother-in-law made her very popular among her circle of friends 😆😆😆

[@Deb_Bee_Thriver]

A wonderful reaction yet again Nick,... to our all time favourite singer and phenomenal performer, John Farnham, with his awesome band of 'the best' musicians ever!!!

[@FionaEm]

I just love your unfettered reactions to the best male singer on the planet 🇦🇺☺️

[@jacobbradbury8823]

Farnham is just different from other male singers. Can sing any genre. I once made a musician friend listen to Farnham's studio stuff. My friend shook his head at a couple of parts. When I said "impressive lead vocals, right?", he told me he was listening to the high harmony. There in the background to already crazy singing was the man doing insane stuff. There have been a lot of truly great male vocalists, but how many of them will sing anything from from a country song to AC/DC at the same concert? You Aussies have been spoiled with this. :) Thankfully, there's KZbin nowadways.

[@julzhunt7790]

Us Aussies are spoilt with all our Musos🙂👍🏼🇦🇺 I grew up listening to all this. Frickin Awesome 👏

[@debbieg1406]

I Just love watching your reactions, appreciation and enjoyment Nick, of my very favourite singer/performer John Farnham and his band! I’ve been a lifelong fan, since I was a little girl in the 1970’s and so lucky to have attended a dozen or so of John’s live concerts throughout the years in Australia, including a special one at the 70th Toowoomba Flower/Music Festival in 2019, (John was also 70!), ..I attended with my 16 yr old daughter and 84 year old Mum!💕🎶🌈

[@Rabzy08]

finally, think I've found someone who loves John farnham as much as me (pretty obscure where I come from) love it

[@danschiavello]

Thanks for doing this one too bro! Awesome Reaction! You also need to realise that this was the last song of a 2-plus hour concert of John absolute belting out 20-odd songs. And his voice is immaculate. He’s a freak of nature. Absolute legend.

[@meni8015]

Nick, anyone who has seen John in concert can relate to your excitement when hearing him sing live backed by these great musicians.

[@blacksorrento4719]

Pleased you recognised what an elite squad of musicians and back up singers he has up there with him.

[@MsWilson]

I so enjoy watching you get into John just as we did when we were in the audience. I cannot remember a time in my life when John wasn’t at the top of my list of singers - his was the first album I ever bought (Looking through a tear - 1970). Sure I had crushes on others, seeing he broke my heart and married, but no one has ever topped his voice, stage presence and sheer genuine personality. I wish you could have experienced him live like we have Nick.

[@georgeibrahim7945]

Bro you hands down got the best John Farnham reactions

[@lyndamac1058]

The other guy on guitar is Phil Buckle from Southern Sons to. A brilliant song writer who wrote most of their songs and a few for John like "Burn for you" One of the nicest guys around. He lived on Canterbury Rd in Melbourne and we had a awesome conversation about song writing.

[@karenstrong8887]

I like that John announces he is going to sing a gentle song at the beginning. When I know what is coming by the title.

[@annagrimaldi3301]

Haha you are the cutest when you go all fan boy!! This was such a fun and energetic performance, fabulous vocals. Go band too!!

[@gazza8127]

What more can you say? More brilliance from the one & only & the Farnsy all stars!

[@Rhianna7]

One of my absolute favourites by John Farnham. I’ve been dying to see you react to this song. Love your work!

[@letstalk3265]

For me Ella Fitzgerald is the greatest voice. You know God exists when she sings. John Farnham is up there with Ella.

[@brendonburgin5250]

With the G.O.A.T you get the best live performances vocally then we get the mic stand spinning while not missing a note. He leans down to shake the audiences hands while still singing, then with all that the man is a comedian as well. John Farnham is the best live performer ever. And my wife and I went to his concert in New Zealand 2019 and he never missed a note didn't matter high or low. Just an amazing fellow in general.

[@carolynh8866]

No need for me to preach to the converted here. We all know John is the Master. Any genre, any key, any where...only thing better than watching John Farnham, live is watching you react to him

[@meni8015]

Totally agree

[@justlinsu]

Oh I wish we could time travel Nick....How would you like to be at this concert front row and centre? lol Great reaction as always...and yes less is more with pausing lol just saying....I've said it before but I sit here and grin away at your enjoyment of this master of vocals....every time..

[@iankearns774]

The bloke with the bald spot is Wayne Nelson, he is an American who still performs with the Little River Band "cover band" that tours the US. I call them a cover band as they aren't a patch on the original.

[@AussieDebb]

Absolutely love this reaction to this fantastic performance by John and his band ❤🎉😂❤🎉😂

[@nicolaj3294]

One of your best Nic, pure joy on your face, loved it

[@Dallass66]

I often watch your reaction to the first time you heard jimmy and John that’s my fav

[@garypeterson8394]

Great song and yes the band/singers are at the top of the list. This was from the "Chai reaction" tour which went off like a frog in a sock... Southern Sons was the support act....Double whammy for me 👍👍 I LOVE your freestyle vocals at the credits section at the end. I'm not sure but to me the instrumental sounds like one of Tommy Emmanuel's compositions. It would make sense because Tommy played in john's band for years and Tommy was in Doug Parkinsons band etc for a while. Tommy has played with so many great bands/singers. Great reaction mate as usual 👍👍🔨🥁🦘🙏

[@jennygavrilovic7415]

Did you see his Michael Jackson move around the 103-113 mark of the video? Farnsey & his band always number 1. Hope you received the DVD’s I sent you! The more you do of John Farnham, the more you love him. His simply the BEST!!!!

[@RhythmicEye]

Aretha Franklin, yes sir. Never saw her spin a mic stand like John though.

[@Lynsey77]

Great song which I’d never heard before. Also great reaction. Your joy is contagious 😊

[@jillianflower4573]

I see that you know Jack Jones - I'm sure that you've listened to his songs that he did with Southern Sons - he sounds so much like John.

[@NeilBlanco]

Man there's only one thing better than your reactions to John Farnham and your reactions to Irwin Thomas and that's your reaction to both of them together... ✌ Love your freestyling at the end!

The bald guy is Wayne Nelson, he was also in Little River Band with John and left when John did. He is now back with LRB as the lead singer.

[@JoSedunary]

The bass player (Hulk Hogan aka Wayne Nelson was with Little River Band) The second guitarist you already know, is Phil Buckle and was with Irwin in Southern Sons.... all of the members , regardless of who stepped in for the originals if they were temporarily unavailable, were always the best of the best ...musically and vocally.... great band...having said that.. you need a great leader to make them want to return again and again....John is that person.... these guys dropped everything to either record, do live shows or tour whenever John felt the need (or came out of retirement again hahaha)... speaks volumes of the type of person Farnsey really is.

[@meni8015]

Well said. John always had the same band members with a few variations for each tour. Speaks volumes for him as a person. Great musicians and backing singers that complimented him so well.

[@gerardroll6468]

Didn’t he have a guitarist named Brett Garsed, aka: “Rambo”??? I remember John introducing him as “Rambo” in many concerts I saw him perform ✊️😎🎸🎸🎸

Tommy Emmanuel, one of the greatest guitarists of all time, a spiritual man himself, thinks Farnham is just God showing off.

[@renlish]

The only person I think is comparable to John Farnham is Freddy Mercury. Both of them have a very similar sound albeit different styles. I would have loved to have seen a duet between the two. Sadly that'll have to wait for another life to happen, but it would have been brilliant to hear.

[@theremstar]

Brilliant! Nick have you seen Jimmy's new video with Josh Teskey?

[@cherylb1952]

So good 👏👏

[@drunkpaulocosta]

The beautiful thing about your content is you have no idea how much Australia has craved recognition in the American market. Australians with any music industry experience all know how the industry here cannibalizes its own artists. And they never put enough effort into international promotion. All of our artists who made it overseas had to move there and start again and make it for a second time. And so many of them can't even afford to do that because they will lose the money they can make here(which is a decent but not instant millionaire status like a hit in america does) In my mind the single biggest Nod to John Farnham that America has ever given was the movie HOTROD starring Andy Samberg and The Lonely Island guys. Middle of the movie just stops and "You're The Voice" starts playing and everyone loses their mind and starts looting and destroying everything whilst the cast mime the song. Literally such a silly movie but i always wondered why they did this scene and who the dude who chose the song was. Never heard a John Farnham song anywhere besides this haha

[@drunkpaulocosta]

Like i get the movie was a nod to amovie John Farnham did the sountrack to called RAD but i still wanna know who picked up on how good he was an had to have a scene with his most famous song

[@andrewbartlett269]

Dude! There is something you REALLY want to track down. In 1992 there was a MASSIVE production of Jesus Christ Superstar here in Australia. John Farnham played Jesus. I’ve listened to a lot of different productions of JC Superstar… none compare to the 1992 Australian Cast. It was simply brilliant.
