John Farnham - You're the Voice

[@EileenSpeakman]

Hi John farnham fans. I'm nearly 80 and this masterpiece of music still energises me, makes me feel alive. It should be the entire world's anthem - everyone should listen to it.

[@EileenSpeakman]

All you fans worldwide - I invite you to join me in my daily Farnham fix - watch the videos of John's live performances of You're the Voice every day - best "energiser" ever.

[@terrymcginness1405]

👍🏌🏌🎶🎶

[@drew8958]

Apart from listening to John Farnham, is there any advice you can give us to get to our 80s??🙂THX!

[@EileenSpeakman]

Well, guess it's genetics (mum was 95 when she passed. And she smoked until into her 70s, and was still enjoying wine to the end). Don't think "old", don't carry with you negativity from your earlier life experiences, learn to not let the past dictate your emotions now, that's destructive and you're worth far more than that, so believe in yourself. Never allow negative people/feelings into your life, and if they do creep in then watch It's a Long Way to the Top... Store in your mind not only the sheer energy from that song but also the love between John and his fans, and remember it. No one has a perfect life but we can choose to make rhe best of it.

[@EileenSpeakman]

And - I cry when I see and hear perfection - ice skater years ago, Donald Jackson? Canadian? , a friend who is a concert pianist - more than perfection, he plays with heart and soul and you can hear that emotion in his playing . And John Farnham? . The total package. 'nuff said?

Exactly! It sounds like a preaching come out of the gospel. Songs that really matter like this one, we don't find many anymore. You should listen to the brand new version of For King & Country, an australian band now settled in the US.

[@dayoldeggplant]

It's here, trust me. Music changes with the ages, but the human spirit and human condition always shines through with genuine emotions and feelings in some manner...might not always be the way we usually like it

[@VG-kt6zs]

Back in late 1988, my first year in college, we were getting exposed to all kinds of new music. And like most 18 year old kids, we thought that we could take on the world and listened to songs like We Built This City by Starship, Everybody Wants to Rule The World by Tears for Fears, The Living Years by Mike and The Mechanics... and this song below more than any other song at the time. Incidentally, I had forgotten the name and the lyrics of this song over the years but it's upbeat, marching band with the bagpipes was stuck in my head till today. I even asked my engineering college friends if they could remember the song we used to play the most and yet, I could not give them any meaningful clues. Then, here in Melbourne, I suddenly heard this song play on.the radio and I almost pulled over. Actually, I did pull over, to Google the lyrics right away only to realize that John Farnham is actually Australian himself! To most, it might seem like any other power ballad, to me and many of my friends, this song reminds me of some of the happiest times in our college life.

[@Amicitiac]

Who forgets lyrics from a song they loved when they were a teenager? And what kind of Aussie calls university college and doesn’t know where Farnsie is from?

I find this song to be profoundly moving. It's an anthem against violence and at the same time advocates for the search for a fair society, and telling you that you have power so long as you speak the truth you know.

On behalf of Australia john thank you for the music you've blessed us with for nearly 50 years - you're still with us obviously but if you never sing again theres no shame - go and enjoy your well-earned rest mate, hope you know how much people love and respect you for what you've done for the music industry and our nation 🫡

This song is a genuine masterpiece. The 80s was and always will be the dominant music genre. The words have never been so meaningful! Choreography of the whole thing is just incredible and my personal opinion, when the bagpipes come in that’s when the goosebumps kick in. My goal as a future dad will be to never let the 80s die.

Song was played during freedom marches. He violently disagreed with it he said. Fk him the commo

[@ForwardEarth]

The 80s were a decade, not a genre.

[@redstrat1234]

'The 80s was and always will be the dominant music genre' - nope. It may have been for you, but for a person of say, 70 years old it was the 60's/70's, for a person of 22 it was maybe 4 or 5 yrs ago. It seems to be whenever you were young and alive and unencumbered by career or mortgages or children etc and everything was an adventure or party - that's when you thought YOUR music was the best, most meaningful, pressed all of your emotional buttons. Anyone who was 16-25 in the 50's, 60's, 70's etc believed their decade was the best for music, and it was as true for them as it is for you.

But this is a woeful video from the 80s! Unlike a lot of artists John Farnham’s live performances are better than studio ones. Check this out live (from ‘Classic Jack’ - with Melbourne Symphony Orchestra - or ‘Chain Reaction’ shows!)
