[@JudeAussie]

Yes he’s still alive and still belting out those tunes at the age of 71.

[@Corekidbeenybunny]

What a legend!!!!

[@amandameale6000]

Yes we love him. Has anyone mentioned he had major surgery for mouth cancer in 2022? I don’t care if he never sings again - he had over 50 years of it - I just want him to be healthy and happy.

[@gailthomson4275]

He is still singing live at 71 and we still love him

[@jacklayton34]

His inflections, runs, pitch, and vocal control are absolutely stunning. NO Autotune! How did the crowd stay in their seats?

[@pawsndclawz]

You know one of his backups was Venetta Field right?? check her out.. a legend in her own right! And I might add a genuinely lovely lady.. Ive had singing lessons off of her!!! There is a reason John called her 'The Queen'!!

[@EnlightenedCate]

John has got an absolutely fabulous sense of humour. Very witty and very quick.

[@georgeibrahim7945]

Love this song, john wasnt the original singer it was Glenn shorrock, then John took over at a young age. John was one of only artists who had number 1 albums in 5 decades straights the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and 2000s. John is 71 years old now and sounds just as good and yeah he’s still alive.1983 the year I was born lol

[@Rlee571]

I worked backstage at concerts in Sydney in the late 80’s and early 90’s, several that John performed at. He treated all the backstage staff like royalty and they loved him for it

[@MrNeilandrew]

Farnham crosses many genres from rock to jazz and pop even slightly operatic at times. An absolute Aussie icon!

[@cinemaipswich4636]

Live on stage? I have never heard any singer like John Farnham. He just beats any other singer without effort. John is the ultimate entertainer. We, in the land of Oz, love him dearly. Every one on stage with him are artist in their own right. Even the drummer sings.

[@wacka40]

I was 23 and gigging in Sydney . John is a treasure

[@dammboi9848]

Saw John Farnham Feb 2021 at the firefight concert for 70,000 people in Sydney, Queen and Alice Cooper were also on the ticket. John Farnham is a national treasure, Australians love him.

[@Miss.Libby.]

I’ve seen our John in concert at least half a dozen times over a 30 year time span and he’s always totally wowed the audience. I just love him. 🇦🇺💖

[@vickiarchibald427]

He is still very much alive and in his 70 and still sounds amazing. He is just the best and his music will live forever in my heart.

[@terrykemp1876]

John is much loved home here in Australia. And a genuinely lovely guy too.

[@carolynh8866]

Indeed! Best live performer ever.

[@sharenedrennan1602]

John is definitely still alive and still singing strong in his 70's

[@felicitymoore7340]

Alive & kicking!!! Still occasionally performing. In his early 70's. Aussies love him. He's a really great guy and is heaps of fun.

[@TheBrownlj]

We love Farnsey. The original LRB singer was Glenn Shorrick. John was only with them for a very short time when his solo career took off. He is a legend here in Australia and is still rocking out at 70 years old.

[@sharenedrennan1602]

I was there, and at just about all of his concerts over 40yrs.

[@marieontana1392]

Love this performance! Such a voice! 🔥🔥❤️ Keep up the great reactions 😌

[@kerrydwyer1879]

HI'My mum was Sydney Conservatorium of Music trained pre ww2....She really appreciated and enjoyed John Farnham...He,, and whomever is playing with him is/are great live. The joy emanates..

[@donnam5891]

John is a great guy. He's a bloody larrikin. Love his solo stuff too. He has the most amazing interactions with the audience. He's a legend her in Australia. He IS 'The Voice'. Great reaction. Also love LRB either either John or Glenn.

[@linux49er]

Define "larrikin"

[@donnam5891]

The dictionary says young person who is rude or offensive but I don't use it like that I meant (very affectionately) someone usually a young person who is mischievous & often takes the mickey. John still is like this in his early '70's.

[@Areyousayingidontknowmyname]

@@donnam5891 Kind of curious it is defined like that. Can of course be someone like that. But where i am a Larrikin usually just is someone that is playful. Maybe pulls pranks. I personally wouldn't put John in that one. Personally. John always strikes me as someone that just wanders onto a stage and is just as surprised as anyone else he is up there. Then just has lots of Professional fun.

[@donnam5891]

@@Areyousayingidontknowmyname yes I thought the same thing. I've never seen it used in a negative way

[@primategaberocco]

He's very much still with us, pops his head up every so often. Just a ripping man. 👍

[@peterg219]

I like your reactions to John Farnham's work Matt. You also seem like a nice guy mate. Regards from Sydney Australia

[@JB-zs1oq]

You must listen to John Farnham's version of "Help". It is exceptional. We Aussies love John Farnham for his voice, his exceptional relationship with his audiences and his fellow musicians and his wonderful character.

[@georgeibrahim7945]

He’s done it already

[@JB-zs1oq]

@@georgeibrahim7945 i missed that. Must check. Thanks George

[@mssuziquzi]

Effortless. He's just having fun. He really can sing any genre! The original singer was Glenn Shorrock. He did a great original version, but John went and took it to another level. Glenn's another well known Aussie singer that's still around today.

[@terenasimons5247]

So glad you reacted to this one, not many people know it, I too just discovered it recently. Love the groovey jazzy sound and harmonies, like you said it shows his versatility!!!

[@MsBeryl6]

PLUS you can go up to him shake his hand, and is so modest , you would love him.

[@janegilmore102]

He is veryyyyy funny. Used to be on one of our comedy show is called Hey hey it’s Saturday and he would see him but he would stay for the whole show because he was just a great comedian as well

[@zebedeedoodaah6454]

More more more!. Farnsy is an all-round "Dead set" top Aussie larrikin bloke with Golden tonsils who has always had the natural gift of LEVITY!. He is a humble fella who's joy and passion for singing,people, and life is infectious!. I highly recommend reacting to his cover of "Help" by the Beatles in a live concert in Melbourne backed by The Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. I hope other commentators can direct you to the right one where he is standing up front rather than the one where he is at the piano. His performance and rapport with the audience is really something to behold!. Seriously,this guy lights up any room he enters. Good one mate!. Zebedee from Oz. 👍

[@bryanstock281]

I saw this a couple of weeks ago and have been stuck on it - best version of the song hands down! I keep noticing new things each time I hear it. I’ve never heard of this guy John b/c this was before my time, wonder what happened to him. Incredible voice!

[@ChrisFirth-do2sm]

He was still singing in the same range in2021 at 72.

[@user-ed8bk6rz9s]

Yep 71 and still belting out the songs and we love him!!! So many great songs over the years so many full stadiums all over Australia! So glad America and the world are seeing him now. Original lead singer was Glen Shorrock. Love from Australia🇦🇺🤟🏽😎Tina Neilsen

[@linux49er]

I don't think he's always listened to Jazz that we know about, but he is a naturally gifted singer.

[@sheronsimmons3811]

2022, he still sounds amazing ❤️

[@kimenslow963]

Our John is 73 years young now & can still belt out a song 🎵 we love John so very much here in Australia 🇦🇺. Thankyou for your awesome reaction to our Aussie legend. Love from Australia 🇦🇺 ❤️

[@lealand423]

John is very funny very witty he has a great sense of humour he is a great bloke. Watch him on Hey hey its Saturday

[@TheAgentAaron]

I agree completely. Key changes are vitally important. Each key tells a slightly different story, has its own feel and overall mood. It's been years since being musically involved. I played piano & guitar growing up. From 6th grade through high school I played 1st part trumpets. My ears could be going bad but it seems the first half of the song is played in a minor (flat). He sings about proposing to a woman that he loves and has a good level of confidence. But he seems to carry that natural reservation as in will she or won't she? It's a cliffhanger. But midway, the key change goes natural, the suspense is mo longer present. One could assume she said yes and all is happy, happy, joy, jou. I. Excellent song. A few years behind you. I was 3 in 1980. Best music ever right here.

[@michellebostock4276]

If you want to hear John singing Jazz John singing Stevie Wonders Loves in Need Chain Reaction Concert December 1990 You will love it

[@toddyrocket296]

Love the John Farnham road trip

[@Dr_KAP]

Mate you are right John is a great guy. You should watch some of his latest interviews he’s just humble and generous and super funny too !

[@lindamoreland150]

Always this good. Just as good live - every time . Never needed auto tune

[@robertmcmahon823]

Thanks for your reaction watching these make me appreciate these singer even more .John Farnham took the place of the original lead singer (glenn shorrock) who moved on, John caused a storm with the fans because John was the Aussie king of pop for 10 years and not considered a jazz/rock singer. His legacy proves them all wrong.John first big hit was a very corny song called Sade the cleaning lady at 17 ish and still an apprentice plumber back in 1967 I think. Go check that out and see where that leads him.

[@sandramolina7919]

This man is special! ❤

[@dondelbiondo1258]

Loved the original song..... love this version more 👍

[@richardlondon1076]

Have a listen to another Aussie legend, Vince Jones . Vince plays trumpet and sings . Try his version of I put a spell on you or his treatment of any of the standards. Aussie jazz is so underrated around the planet.

[@jemxs]

Love Vince Jones, such a great singer and nice guy. Saw him at The Continental and he signed a cd for me with the words "Keep the Faith"! Still have and play that cd!

[@carolcarol3938]

YES YES YES

[@lorilxn1597]

This is my very favorite live version of this

[@karenstrong8887]

John is very unique and so talented and special. He still has that voice so you can still see him if our Country ever opens again. Pretty sure there are kids being born that have never seen a plane fly over. There were 10 lead singers of the Little River Band but only Glenn and John are remembered the most. John is better on his own and live. He is kind and funny, he always looks so happy when the crowd sing his songs first when the music starts and he never interrupts them. He is an icon and no one gets to react to him unless they love him. He surrounds himself with the very best musicians and he gives them the respect they deserve. They don’t want to be anywhere else. My daughter sang one of John’s songs in a contest when she was 14. The judges and I didn’t know it was one of his songs until she told us on stage. She has her own music style but she loves every style and era. I would never have expected her to sing one of his songs. One judge wrote on her sheet. I never liked John Farnham until I heard this song. Now I am in love and I will be listening to so much more of his music. She came first and won $650.00 for one song. She told us she didn’t need any pocket money for a year at least. She won her semi final with Chain Of Fools and more money. The following weekend she won another contest and a lot of money for a kid. It was strange because she always refused to sing or act for money until then and she never has again after then. I later found out she took 9 kids she had stopped from killing themselves, 2 razor cutters, 1 Anorexic and 1 Schizophrenic out to dinner and a movie every month for 5 years. She just knew by walking past them when they were in trouble so she kept them safe. The money was for them. I wish we could claim genetics for this beautiful child but she was adopted and always special. So John helped her help them along with Aretha Franklin. I think John would have loved to see her sing it because he is so normal. He is ours but we share.

[@showmoke]

You’re the first reviewer that I’ve come across that’s covered ‘The Little River Band’. Well done - here’s hoping you’ll be doing a lot more of this incredible band … the best band to come out of Australia in my opinion. They were big in the States and in their own homeland, but sadly didn’t really takeoff in the UK or mainland Europe for that matter. John Farnham was absolutely terrific of course, but my favourite singer for this band was their very first one when the band originally started … can’t remember his name now. One thing that I DO remember was back in the days of video tape recorders seeing a full concert of the band playing outside Sydney Opera House. I’m wondering if it was ever moved onto DVD, because I haven’t seen or heard of that particular concert since.

[@showmoke]

Glenn Shorrock’s name is mentioned here as the original singer, but wasn’t there one before him who was the very original singer, but only stayed with the band for a very short time before Glenn took over?

[@blueycarlton]

@@showmoke I think it was always Glenn Shorrock. I used to see LRB at the Station Hotel Prahran Vic. before they became famous.

[@showmoke]

@@blueycarlton - ok.

[@orettawinton8767]

Listen to John Farnham and Olivia Newton John doing Dare to Dream at the 2000 Olympics in Sydney💖

Great reaction. I love the way you explained the build or change thankyou

[@tiaelina1090]

You said you were 3 yrs old, I was 17 and this was a favourite song of mine and just a fun song to skate to.

73 years old and still singing, some of the songs as he did when he was younger.

Love love love our beautiful John Farnham. Best singer Australia ever produced (even though he was born in England.). First concert I ever went to 💕💕💕💕💕💕

[@danschiavello]

There’s a few more from this particular concert that are crazy good. PLEASE react to them! Driving me out of my mind We two So. So. SO good.

[@phillipsmith5405]

Beautiful reaction 2 our icon

[@bernadettelanders7306]

John has often mentioned he loves Stevie Wonder a real fan of his. Yes our John is still alive. 72 this year. I’m watching your face as u listen to John sing as I type this, it’s great. Only one thing better is to go one of his concerts - absolutely brilliant. The magic buzz and feeling being there is um , like um. Magic No I think, I know that style is John’s, other version was different, John goes up and down scales more than what you originally heard

[@gailthomson4275]

You’re the voice is like an Australian anthem and John is an awesome treasured icon we love him . This time with the little river band was for their sake he is a solo artist. They wrote him some great songs . You have to watch you’re the voice on a live concert stage

[@MarkLucasProductions]

Yes he's still alive and yes - he's genuinely a really nice guy. Amazingly so.

[@karenr1688]

I was there the night before. It was fantastic. I was sitting front row right in front of him! He was staring at me all night and it wasn’t till years later I saw a photo of his wife and she looked a lot like me😆

[@bryanstock281]

Bro they killed that!

[@kennykarlsson6691]

This man never stops surprising you. He is definetly the voice. He is the very defenition of music . Everything he does is amazing. It must feel incredable to have a voice like that. I used to be a profesinal singer my self. But im no where close to his talent. And he still delivers amazing vocals at the age 72. Much better than singers 30 years younger than him. That man is uniqe. He should have been more notised world wide.

[@aussiekat6379]

Probably not! as us Aussie knew just talented LRB were we were so use to hearing our bands live like this and John well we already knew just how bloody good he was from his own career in 60s & 70s I love both Glen & John versions.. Glen is the original singer of LRB John replaced him as lead singer but that only lasted till 1985 when John went back to his sole career and with the smash hit Your The Voice and has never looked back since, his an Aussie Legend and one us Aussie so proud of and get a kick out of people that have just discovered him. He had so many song on here that you can listen to, you want be disappointed going down the John Farnham rabbit hole that’s for sure. Oh and you should check out his concert too that up on KZbin. but google which one to watch first. 🥰🇦🇺

[@chrissneyd9278]

John is very flexible. Check out his version of "Bridge Over Troubled Waters "

[@cytuber]

The dude you would have heard sing this on the radio was the original singer in The Little River Band, Glenn Shorrock. Glenn has an amazing voice too but when he left the band, the band members asked John Farnham to join them. Farnham tried to break into the US market as a solo artist but, for some reason, that didn't work so he took up the offer to join this band. After years of trying he came to the conclusion that that didn't work either - it seems that LRB's time had passed.

[@dbfmixchanneldaniloformoso938]

Amazing high note,really good. 👏👏👏

[@michelestrong789]

You gotta hear the original lead singer Glenn Shorrock do this , he is also great.

[@rodhanson7112]

I went to a Deep Purple concert at Melbourne Festival Hall in the early 70's with LRB as the support band they sounded exactly the same as their albums

[@roslynjonsson2383]

You better believe it was awesome in the audience, I was there 17 times, and will make it 18 if Farnsy ever comes to Perth again. He is the only artist I've ever seen, who sounds MUCH better live - when they play with his voice on CDS it loses the X factor that he has live. Glenn Shorrock was the original lead singer for Little River Band

[@glynisjones3997]

AWESOME song!!!!

[@brendoncastles7832]

If you get a chance listen to John Farnham singing you’re the voice with Brian May, Olivia Newton-John and Mitch Tambo at the Fire Fight Australia concert. John is living Proof that age is just a number in the music industry.

LRB sold over 30 million records when there was only about 20 million ppl living in Aussies lol but they were a great hit in the US . When the lead singer left they asked John to fill in. He didn’t want to sign any contract ….No Glen Shorook was the lead singer all those years u heard it.

John Farnham makes Michael Buble sound ordinary. And Michael Buble is great ! Farnham could be the greatest jazz crooner of all time if he decides to go that way. Not too late as he's still young for his age.

[@geerterri]

I read a comment on a different video that John Farnham's genre is John Farnham. He can sing anything.

[@geerterri]

No, the original singer is Glenn Shorrok (sp?). I like both covers. Both singers made it their own and, IMO, can't really be compared.

[@jgsheehan8810]

John Farnham is a legend but I still think of this song with the original singer (and writer?) Glenn Shorrock.

[@EnlightenedCate]

Glen Shorrock was front man for LRB, then when he quit, the got John to replace him. Not sure if this was the original original or not, it may have been Glen.

[@4adgray2]

He's in his 70's and still performing as he has since he started at 18yo in 1968 with "Sadie" He is exactly what you see, a TOP BLOKE!! Phenomenal talent and exceptional heart! Check out his live performances - he walks on stage and will not leave until the very end 2 to 3 hours later! So funny between songs too! 😂💖
