To think this was Farnsey's and Olivia's last live performance. The fact they got to do it together is a sweet memory - Two Strong Hearts Forever ❤️🇦🇺

[@cheekypeteski7545]

Oi it's not john's last performance

[@davemort9166]

Hard to believe that not only was this Livvy' s last live performance but after John's surgery, his as well... I knew watching this live it was going to be a piece of history.. just not in that way. THANKS JOHN AND OLIVIA

[@theewhodat1278]

I’ve been a fan of his for a while and let me tell you watching that bit especially is too heartbreaking now. 😔

[@LindaLinda-hw8dh]

Absolutely..when I saw John sing that night live at firefight, I thought, he doesn't look well, hope it won't be his last. And I was so happy to get to see Olivia sing too on stage that night. Two Aussie legends.. My daughter is named Olivia, and she was named after ONJ. My daughter is also a great singer too and it just made my day when I saw her sing that day at firefight..I was way in back on the floor. I am so grateful to have maybe seen both their last performances..

[@misssnowrose9401]

It wasn't John's xx and he's still alive.

[@katrinaedmonds1276]

@@misssnowrose9401 it was most likely his last. He had extensive surgery to remove cancer from his jaw,it was already said he would most likely never perform again

[@cheekypeteski7545]

​@@katrinaedmonds1276wat crap.. he starting singing again at home... his getting treatment on his singing voice now it's called rehap... never discount a legend

[@spickspan5319]

This was the last time Olivia sang & performed on stage, how fitting for the type of person she was! To win the hearts of Australians and to leave us with one last memory of how much she loved being a proud Aussie 🇦🇺

[@davidyeend4150]

If this is John Farnham's final performance then what a way to go! Having said that, hope he's doing well and making a good recovery.

[@janrudolph9106]

This must have been the last time the two of them were together on stage, isn’t it? Rest in peace, Olivia!!!

[@anniej8311]

When John Farnham sings, we all pay attention. No one does it better. Anywhere.

[@devilsadvocate2548]

I don't know of too many power/belting singers who can still belt in the same key in their 70s as they did in their 20s/30s. John is one of them.

[@Proof-cs9qu]

John is hands down the best singer in the world, male or female. No one else compares.

[@patriciasampson792]

What da?????!!!!!!!!!! He still sounds the same, still has his high notes!!! Best Australian singer EVER!!!

[@nomandad2000]

I’ve never heard a man at this age sound this amazing…

[@jayceec3178]

RIP Olivia. What a beautiful lady, inside and out. Fly high with all the other beautiful angels. You will live in our hearts forever. Thank you for sharing your incredible talent with the world. It’s a sad day. You will be missed.

[@gadgetphilosophy8290]

What a beast. He’s still got it. Is it even possible that he can sound so good? Long live whispering jack.

[@11Wunderlust]

Such a special performance we need to value and to keep as a memory, as we did not know what was ahead of us all - only one month later we all went into lockdown, then Olivia passed and John got ill in 2022. They both showed their absolute lifelong skills in this performance as usual. SO SO special indeed.

[@jeframp3805]

RIP olivia was this her last ever live performance. For charity too , what a truely wonderful person who wanted to cure cancer raise money to help after such a natural disaster and more. so sad she has passed.

[@kennykarlsson9888]

It doesn't get much better than this. His still the voice of all time in my opinion. And he is not young anymore. Try to deliver this your self when you're past 70 yo. Just amazing. Give him all the love you can for his commitment.

[@brentp9809]

Dude is 70!! And smashes it out.. respect. Aussie legend

[@jenniewilliams6392]

73 acrually

[@deansapp4635]

As a American, I can say John is the best. I loved him singing for Little river band way back in the day

[@billstewart1747]

Ditto!!!!!! None better! So sad Americans aren’t familiar with him! SMH

[@waratahwoman]

What gifts both John and olivia shared with us as Australians and the world. Thank you.

[@jensen220]

Holy God, he STILL sounds phenomenal! One of my favorite singers. He was great fronting the LRB.

[@kimmills2256]

So amazing! I never knew who John was. I am a little river band fan and was watching KZbin and saw John singing all those years ago with LRB and was blown away! Of course this led me to ALL of Johns videos. I am so glad I am now getting to explore his amazing gift for myself. I feel like this has been some secret kept from me! Lol I am from USA. This mans voice is a gift from God.

[@danschiavello]

Welcome to awesomeness. You won’t be disappointed.

[@billstewart1747]

Mic drop 👍👍

[@carole536]

This man is 'Australia' at it''s best. In his 70's, he has seen it all. God gave us one good thing ❤

[@davemort9166]

❤

[@walover165]

This was absolutely brilliant live. Like, we all KNEW he'd end with You're the Voice, but that second Brian May flashed up on the screen, I'm pretty sure I just screamed non-stop for like a minute. A bunch of guys standing near me were in full meltdown: OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! OH MY GOD! over and over again, it was so great. And then the crowd singing to Mitch Tambo, two languages, one meaning, it was wonderful. And when the firies came out. Oh my god. I can't believe it's been a week already. I'll never forget that night.

[@shannonmoraes6282]

Glad you could watch these bloody legends live🙌🏽 hope to see atleast one of them in India soon❤️

[@bondoqbn7318]

Australia loves you Olivia. RIP LEGEND

[@barbaraschain9260]

Sooo freakin' proud of our Aussie John Farnham! What a legend😎🤘🇦🇺

[@GaryNoone-jz3mq]

Just listen to this man's voice! And just think, he is 70 years old when this video was made !WOW, just WOW!!

[@lavishka82]

Surely he is now the true godfather of aussie music. No one comes close..

[@jerramy]

How the hell does he still have that vocal range when he is over 70??!!

[@Lynx19846]

His voice filled the stadium. He was amazing!

[@Jeni10]

It's a gift and he's never wasted it! Good old Aussie sense of humour and a huge heart, the guy is incredible!

[@jimijackson]

Such a beautiful voice...I hope he keeps going for a long long time. Two strong hearts is one of my all time fav songs

[@GeoffYates]

Absolutely brilliant! You’re the voice - we understand it!!

[@jordandelfino]

I heard it's all about the vegemite hehehe love him.. one of my vocal idols

[@colino72]

Jeepers - he puts in optional high notes. His top is incredible and he is not losing it with age.

[@itaflynn8047]

RIP Olivia we miss you ..John come back to us soon. Congratulations to Mitch Tambo you make me proud to be Australian ..such talent on that stage it is breathtaking. I watch this every now and then and it just gets better ..the hero fire fighters at the end makes it so special ..

[@watismith9932]

This man is so damn amazing, my goodness! His voice is still the same as if it was in 30s 40s so very chilling every time I listens to his singing voice

[@lyndamac1058]

You are amazing Johhny......sensational job x

[@brycepagey888]

Listen to that man. Just listen to his tone and note selection. And at his age? Will always be the best in my book. All the best you amazing man.

[@luisajane1742]

Still the VOICE of Australian 🇦🇺 music. ✨🎼

[@floydlay9189]

Man,,the voice stills blows my mind,,,,A LIVING AUSSIE LEGEND!

[@julieholland9639]

just amazing and how good does Olivia look, wonderful performance

[@CdPerth]

Everytime I hear the opening of You're The Voice I get goosebumps. But this version is something else. 4 years on and still amazing, what a way to bring it home!

[@angiehansen8985]

[@misssnowrose9401]

It was such a privallege to be there and at the end too when many left and he brought out Mitch Tambo Brian May and our sweet angel Olivia and the firefighters. I can't explain the atmosphere! Great upload thank you ☺️

[@azwris]

Still the best singer in the world. RIP Olivia.

[@josephinefenech8115]

Great caring person called my friend Angie when she was dying of cancer, bless him 💞 and Angie

[@tonylogan7581]

The fact that we don't have anyone close to these icons when they pass is a shame but Mitch was bloody amazing and as a white Australian man,I do look forward to much more and the love of the first Nations music to me is very important.xxx

[@shannonmoraes6282]

No one can ever compare to thse legends....15 year olds like me are in love with them♥️

[@mrmogish]

Absolutely amazing performance. I've just watched a clip of him from 1994 and there's no difference in his vocal ability. If anything I recon he is even better now which is unbelievable as many vocalists his age lower the key on their songs to suit their voices.

[@jmaxg]

John Farnham is now an Australian institution. He was born in England (Dagenham, specifically), but chose this particular colony to be at peace. His soaring voice can only be compared to Julie Anthony (royal honours - AM, OBE) singing Australia's National Anthem. You are The Voice John - you always and forever will be.

[@milosradovanovic5280]

What a music couple, amazing, such moments of music eternity. 🙏🎶💓🎄❤️♥️✋️😊

[@TheHoodie63]

John Farnham is a true entertainer- still got the pipes, too.

[@geraldineoswin9921]

Absolutely just love this man's voice!! U get better and better the older u get. ❤❤❤

Whispering Jack and Dame Olivia ...love them both in canada

[@paulwilkinson619]

Wishing john a speedy recovery from his surgery.

[@JYAVIDEO]

LOVE John Farnham singing with DAME Olivia Newton-John! Livvy nailed her part and only wish these two could run back into the studio and wrap their gorgeous vocals around some songbooks and standards to add more healing & beauty to the world with their music.

[@Sean-me4fv]

John brings such joy to our lives.

AUSSIE PRIDE RIGHT THERE!!!!!!! When the nation has been copping it, the boxing kangaroo knows how to bounce right back.

If only the world was to know what was to come, as a Kiwi the fires left a lasting imprint on my memory. But then so lost the amazing Olivia Newton-John & to add to a shit time this fabulous guy had to be treated for cancer.

Just Proud to be an Aussie for 73 years I was born here lived here all my life! This is the best country in the world and also the best people in the world! Love you all my brother and sister Aussies.

Cough, cough, they are both British immigrants

[@penklislawnmowing4508]

This was my favour past of the consent. I watched it with my dad Paul Penklis who passed away peacefully on the 27th March 2020 at St Charles Gairdner Hospital. A night I will never forget. Every time I watch this video it becomes more inspirational.

[@leonietoohey5031]

Just amazing,John and Olivia. 😍

[@somethinginmind2151]

Wow, his high notes.

[@Kartdriver1]

just watching this gave me goosebumps actually being there was so amazing

[@RockAgainstTheGrain]

Debo decir que me ha sorprendido gratamente este vídeo. Pensé que este hombre había dejado de rocanrolear en los años 90, tras la gira de su álbum 'Chain reaction'. Así me gusta, John. Que demuestres que la juventud está en la mentalidad y no en el físico. Rock on!

[@leslieataembo]

An amazing artist. Listened to his songs growing up. So much respect and love Mr. Farhnam 🙏

[@MissteriousMisstress]

My headphones cannot get loud enough. I don't care about hearing damage - It would be a privilege to have John Fanham destroy my hearing.

[@user-iq3mp5zo8z]

Hi. I live in England. Will Hhi 80 february 2024. Adore everything John sings. And love all the delicious, smart, funny, loving comments from his fans that I've been reading. A privilege to have your hearing destroyed by John? And you'd enjoy every miniute of it! I play his show videos on my mobile many times, sends me to happy land every day. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@Quaxi3]

I just can't belive it, he can sing it at this age.....

[@RolandDeschain1]

John Farnham's voice is still awe-inspiring.

[@Mrbeast0099]

We know how good John and Olivia are but Mitch Tambo!! Bloody brilliant 👍🇦🇺

[@d0bsey]

All killer no filler. Words cannot describe the unity you could feel in the stadium that Sunday. Something I know I will hold onto forever

[@JoeVarVeri]

Farnham. Just. Unbelievable.
