His vocals in this performance are just on another level. Thanks for the reaction

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

Thank you for commenting, George. I keep trying to get John Farnham reactions up, but it takes quite a while to get through KZbin's blocks. I'll keep working on it. 🙂

[@pmR32red]

👍One of the best live vocal performances ever!

[@jenniferanderson1499]

I saw this concert when the tour came to Brisbane, and it was an amazing atmosphere. John always over-delivers but this was next level, and I was on an endorphin high for a week. Thank you for your thoughtful reaction.

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

My pleasure, Jennifer. That must have been a great experience. 🙂

[@carolynh8866]

Takes a Farnham to outsing an orchestra 😊

[@theray1319]

LOL well said

[@sof123d]

Great comment.

[@TY-ms1nf]

Thank you for appreciating the legendary John Farnham! Amazing vocal range! I think this is the best cover of the Beatles song HELP.

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

My pleasure. 🙂

[@jeffwilson7100]

Every John Farnham concert is like this. Us non-singers can’t talk for 3 days afterwards

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

Thank you for your comments, Jeff. I'm glad I finally got the John Farnham videos through KZbin blocks. 🙂

[@jeffwilson7100]

@@rjjsreactions-rk7zh don’t understand why sometimes the same videos get blocked on one channel but not another. One thing I’ll say though, as good as they are, there’s just no replacement for his concerts.

[@jimlofts5433]

legend - 35 plus years of sold out concert tours from the mid 80's - concerts sold out in 30 minutes - a very large and loyal fan base - enjoy the journey

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

Thank you, Jim. I have enjoyed it so far! 🙂

[@dondelbiondo1258]

This entire concert with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra is just amazing..... you should check it out !!

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

I've done a couple of songs with John and the orchestra. 🙂

[@jemxs]

Fantastic performance and version of this classic song! Idk why this only showed up for me today... thanks yt algorithm 😂

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

This might have been one of the videos that got blocked. When they do, and I dispute the block, it takes days (at least) to get the block removed. That seems to mess up the algorithm. Those videos always have far fewer views (at least for a while) than others by the same artist that didn't get blocked. 🙂

[@annemcbeath120]

You have the “I’m watching John Farnham killing it” face on. Zoom in and have a look. Lots of reactors get the same look when they watch this for the first time…. it’s great😊

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

Don't zoom in on my face - you'll have nightmares! 😂

[@mssuziquzi]

@@rjjsreactions-rk7zh Come on, be a little kinder to yourself. Reactors are sometimes overawed by Farnsey's vocal performances.😄

[@kenlawton1531]

John Lennon sure could write a great song.

[@mssuziquzi]

He sure could, and apparently he loved John's version. Interesting fact: Lennon said that he actually wrote the song as a cry for help and never liked the 'preppy' upbeat way the Beatles were forced into recording it. I saw a documentary about Lennon a while back where they spoke about it.

[@noone6559]

When people like Tom Jones, Celine Dion literally call Farnsey 'The Voice'...... you know this man needs to be respected..... just because he blew the USA off due to wanting to stay with his family and not deal with the crap US music industry/producers/companies........... doesn't mean he is less of a brilliant artist......

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

He's got my respect. 🙂

[@jeffwilson7100]

This concert was in 1989

[@mssuziquzi]

I believe that this was the end of a 2 1/2 hour concert. Just so you know, John’s an Aussie legend and a really top guy, so careful what you say because you could cop a bit of flack from his millions of fans who love him to death.🥰. Personally, I’ve never seen anyone do a bad reaction to Farnsey, and there are a lot of them being done now around the world. You need to see his live performances that are so good technically that they could be recorded and go straight onto an album. Just check out out his live cover of Led Zeppelin’s Black Dog, it’s just John, the BG singers and band doing a soundcheck that luckily somebody recorded, many say it’s better than the original. John’s concerts are truly legendary and attract big audiences as you can see here. Apparently the guys in the MSO had a great time too.😊

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

Thank you for the comments. I did listen to his cover of Black Dog. It was amazing. 🙂

[@mssuziquzi]

@@rjjsreactions-rk7zh Thanks I'll take a look😊

[@devilsadvocate2548]

Not quite the end. There was another encore after this one with 2 more songs.

[@Susan-hk7uj]

I was at his concerts and he sounded so much better live than on the video.

[@KC-tk2gx]

💗

[@markflint2629]

Was there

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

That's cool.

[@Rassskle]

If you haven’t already done it, react to Gethsemene from Jesus Christ Superstar..... any video will do, all I have seen are brilliant. This was Australia’s 3rd major production of Superstar and because they used established Aussie rock and pop stars, I never seen it. Thought it would be a joke. Now I have seen the videos, it is the best theatre production I have seen.

[@winsomeblandford1076]

Great🎉

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

🙂

[@carbine5378]

You know this is a Beatles song?

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

Yes. 🙂

[@theray1319]

I like your reaction Mr RJJ. I would call it "barely restrained enthusiasm for our young local lad". Which is nice because somehow I don't think you're the "throwing your knickers on the stage" type. 😉

[@rjjsreactions-rk7zh]

Just "Ron" is good. You are right. I generally absorb music rather than explode with enthusiasm - probably not great for a "reactor." Still, there might be room for a more subtle approach. Thank you for your comments. I appreciate it. 🙂

[@theray1319]

Just "Ron". Don't change a thing
