Incredible. At almost 70 he is singing songs most singers can't even sing in their prime. It's so good to finally see an artist age with absolutely no deterioration in their voice. A true icon!!

[@tonylogan7581]

To Johnny Farnham...the voice,they had Elvis,they had Tom Jones..but Australia had the voice, a Mr John Farnham thankyou so much mate for being Aussie and we had you and I think The BEST EVER in the world stage performer

[@kennykarlsson9888]

The king of singing. Hall of fame is his home. Absolutely amazing, i truly hope that people all over the world realise that this man is one in a billion, and give him the cred he deserves.

[@lilyrose1233]

I honestly DID NOT think Farnham's voice could get any better! He is ON FIRE here. His range is amazing and his humour is fabulous!

[@debbieg1406]

Just awesome! What an amazing performer John is even at 70!❤🎶👌👏👍🎶🍀🤞🙏 Sending all my love, light and well wishes to John now. His wonderful music still brightens up my every day. 💜❤️💙💚💛🧡💝💞💕🎶

[@errol-ih4jy]

the voice had to be fantastic when he was younger, to do the things he is doing with that voice at 69, glad i lived in his time, and you can see hes giving everything, cause he doesnt know anything else, hes a pro and gives you both barrels when he sings, thanks for inspiring me in the UK John, i wish the American public could have seen more of this man, but the Morons that run the music world,wouldnt allow that,what a joke they really are, probably the best we will ever see, good luck mate.

[@justjuven4846]

At 69 and you could sing like this. This man is the real definition of wine.

[@makkadee8969]

One of the best vocalists of all time!

[@johnroberts838]

Australian Music's Royalty, we Love you Mr John Farnham.♥️

[@kandicemckenney7264]

The guy is a beast. I'm in my 60's and had never heard of him until last night. Unbelievable!

[@ronaldhurley3475]

America had Elvis! We got Johhny! Still pumps that amazing voice,I am so glad Australia can call his ours.

[@mikemathieson3700]

Johns amazing ..pushing 70 still singing songs in the original keys .......its obvious that its strenuous for him just looking at the sweat hes putting out but hes like an old champion whos still got that heart to put it on the line.....what a legend

[@jacklandsford]

Spoken like a true Pro Mike! :)

[@Phoniq]

I'd be sweating too wearing that Suit under those lights......

[@c8Lorraine1]

G.B. Taylor Darn right

[@justicemoody]

The 3 piece suit doesn’t help under those lights. Looks good tho.

[@allymayful]

It’s in Tamworth - and he’s giving 100% in a 3 piece suit!!!!!

[@luciusavenus8715]

He's always been there. Love the bloke. Thanks Farnsey!!

[@nica7587]

Farnsey is a phenomenal. Cannot believe he can still sing like this at almost 70. Love it 😍

[@bradhackett9103]

God he's sharp! Such a talent...SO good!

[@vwpolo1.9sd]

This man is incredible.the voice.the best.70.years amazing.long life john.from argentina

[@theinventionsofmegsy3137]

ridiculous how great he still sings

[@cheekypeteski7545]

Holy fuck john just nailed ac/DC he is fitter tgen his ever been and can rock on.. voice gets better with age. . Unbelievable

[@a.jbandel5462]

John my mate, a man with a big heart and humor and for me the best singer on this planet! The shows he always did with passion and full of love for his audience .. I only have one word for it: THANXXX MATE! The VOICE!

[@juliesterk4583]

Just came across this concert. Don’t know how I missed it in 2018 except I lost my husband to dementia that year. Maybe that was why! I remember seeing John. the first time in 1968 at the Tunerama in Port Lincoln South Australia, when he sang Sadie the cleaning lady in a red coachmans jacket. Do you still have the jacket Johnny? We have grown old together. I’m the same age. Wonderful memories. Keep going.

[@donellefeltham]

A Legend indeed, he has a ball up on that stage, his voice is as great as it's ever been. You can see how much he loves playing for a good reason. This is not his first Concert for the Farmers who desperately need the rain. He is 1 of our greats.🎼💖🇦🇺

[@harvesteroftone5473]

He's a national treasure. He'll be 70 next July

[@karlenemacdonald6549]

What??? No way. Can't believe he will be 70! He seems timeless. And his voice is still superb.

[@karlenemacdonald6549]

@poida I agree. I remember seeing Marc Hunter with Dragon in the Myer Music Bowl with Aussie Crawl, with my friend, when we were teens!! And...my oldest bro actually saw AC/DC back in the 70,s when they were a garage band, playing in a high school gym for an end of year social!! And mum knew Johnny O'Keefe through one of their mutual friends! The live music scene seemed much more intimate and neighborhoody back then. (If that's even a word??). Everyone seemed to have a connection or knew someone in a band back then, especially in the 70,s. My aunt used to babysit John Farnhams kids when they were little too! Small world. Gotta love the aussie live rock music scene from the 70,s!!

[@buddhacook1087]

He still got the pipes at 70yrs old. Ya just ain't an Aussie if u don't totally 💙💙💙 John Farnham

[@antonyirvine5692]

THE WORLD! needs to see just how AWESOME our JAAAAAACK still is. ONYA! JOHNNY & GOD BLESS.

[@JoeVarVeri]

Great upload, thank you for sharing... I missed this when it happened. Long time Farnham fan here. Now watching from New York, 2020. John Farnham for ever. You have my subscription.

[@addienaacrew8030]

Blown away John is ‘The Voice’ … his voice will always live on 👍✅❤️

[@cheekypeteski7545]

He is a dead set legend.. still hopeful he will record new music soon

[@yagottabkwik]

Voice from God.

[@vasiliosagio3127]

Fav Australian vocalist that in my opinion is up there with David Coverdale , Robert plant , Tom Jones and even Elvis .. John can out sing anyone . Saw him in 80 blew me away

[@bobbyjovi]

Saw him support lionel richie. Blew him to smitherines. Unbelievable

[@dexterdean]

Take a look young ones that's how it's done 😉😉

[@Mr79awillis]

Thanks to John Farnham and all the other great acts that gave up there time too come to Tamworth for this great concert to help our Aussie farmer's and it was even greater being there.thanks from the farmers of Australia.

[@markwaters3050]

As a former sound guy, I have to say that John has probably the very best microphone technique of any performer that I have experienced.

[@AusPearlJammer]

You are a Legend, Thanks Mate from me and my Family.

[@danniieem2840]

69 and sounds better live than people half his age and you younger .I hope one day he makes a come back and does a Australian tour

[@FionaEm]

What an absolute bloody legend this man is. Just when I thought he was flagging a bit during You're the Voice, he comes back and slays 'em with Long Way to the Top. We were so lucky to have Farnham performing so magnificently for so many years 🙌🙌

[@julianbennett4157]

That voice that power that control and at that age..... Holy cow John, just awesome.

[@stevec1835]

A lot of male singers lose the top end of their vocal range as they get older, Elton John, Billy Joel etc but not John Farnham. What a legend.......

[@jaclynhansch5053]

Daryl Braithwaite is another one

[@TheSkirvo]

He has lost it just a little bit . Not quite as strong . He can't sing help anymore but still amazing for his age

[@GeorgiaOverdrive]

He’s also suffering from hearing loss, which makes singing even harder

[@cee2615]

Wow, I take my hat off to you Mr Farnsey, that was pure magic.

[@megbeetle7630]

He was amazing live!!!

[@garyeasdale1004]

Me mums first words with john Farnam first tv appearance Look and listen to him boys He's going to be a star

[@margierogers1815]

He is just wonderful ! I am from USA and I love to see him smile at the people !! You are lucky to have him .

[@louiserawle8999]

Been a fan forever,their is none better..Thank you John Farnham for the joy you bring to countless Aussies,year in year out and never miss a bit..You are sooo loved and respected.

[@bettinahansen7630]

[@CrazyMaori24]

What a Great human being this man is. He still has a legendary voice. I’m a kiwi and I’ve loved his songs since I was a teen. 💯💯💯💯👍💪🏾💪🏾❤️

[@soothinsoul]

WOW! John Farnham, at any age, you will always be The Voice!! As I closed my eyes and listened to Burn for You, one of my many favourites just bought tears to my eyes. Amazing, soulful, and mesmerizing.

[@bobrussell9863]

Been a big fan of John since i came to NZ in 1977 and have been lucky to see him live a few times, the man is a living legend and has a heart of gold for sure

[@andrewskinner8560]

Did you notice Stuart Fraser wasn't in the Farnham band last night

[@VauxhallViva1975]

No 'Phil Buckle on the guitar, please...' (from Full House). ;) ;) ;) This was fantastic. Great to see you still doing your thing, John. Your music is brilliant. 'Burn for you' and 'That's Freedom' are my favourites.

[@7WhatTheHeaven7]

He's incredible! He's brilliant! He's The Voice! Oh I love this man. His voice is as good, if not better, than ever. My God! Unbelievable.

[@dannyjones3689]

[@grahamharvey3159]

Amazing voice!

[@johnfarnhamexperience]

Fully Farnham... thank-you so much, I have looked pretty much everywhere for this, and no-one has it, not even the fanclub... so you are an awesome dude... and without the ads... bloody legend... all the reviews I'm reading the ads is the biggest complaints... mate you get a standing ovation from all of us for your tremendous work and quick work... from one John Farnham Tribute to another... thankyou mate... when you get a chance, check my vids out with my tribute to John... once again... brilliant stuff bud...

[@BrandonBeard]

voiceusa Fully Farnham knows how to work the Farnham magic. The only other 69 year old on the planet that can match him is Bruce Springsteen the Voice and the Boss 69 and still rock Gods.

[@BrandonBeard]

voiceusa Be awesome if the fan club could come up the full concert Glen Wheatley should get on it 😉

[@JAWs313]

My mum always recorded every single carols by candlelight to vhs, so a few yrs back I recorded them all to dvd for her. So we have the entire show from this Yr and some others on the discs somewhere. Probably still have the vhs tapes aswell.

[@shelly8343]

[@traviscarlson6718]

Same I have tickets to go see him next year too

[@GraehamM]

As I write this, the concert that concert in Dunedin was last night. Sad he wasn't there.

[@tarasbullbar2362]

Johnny is a top bloke and needs to be informed of weather modification technology referred to as Geoengineering that may be impacting our farmers and all living things of our planet. One should look up SAI (Stratospheric Aerosol Injection) and SRM (Solar Radiation Management) information and then look up at the sky sometimes or watch Time-Lapse vids of "Chemtrails". Geoengineering is a broad field that includes rain making via electrifying the atmosphere and cloud seeding to tap into atmospheric rivers.

[@JAWs313]

On my 4th play thru! 🤣 this was 1 of my favourites, ever. He was just spectacular with these 2 songs! Watching this though, and seeing that earring in his left ear, I'd totally forgotten had had his ear pierced...I wonder if it still is or when he got rid of it...im gonna have to go check it out now and look at some more footage and photos!

[@Samueltrainplace]

Upload some more concerts of John Farnham.

[@Samuelselevatorchannel]

Yeah thanks

[@jacklandsford]

RIP Glenn :(

John is The Best 👏👏👏💖
