[@maxmirni2768]

i think those stiffs in the crowd were left breathless, she knocked them out of the park, and knew they were not worthy..... she slayed them

[@thecraft2091]

I never thought how difficult it must be to perform to an audience like this that are all seated, no vibe, nothing when the artist themselves have to hype themselves up and create a vibe on stage. Crazy.

This is the version I watched also and I couldn’t believe how motionless the audience was! She nailed it! 🙌🏽

[@ThatSingerReactions]

Right lol

[@arconeagain]

It must be like a personal agenda thing. If they acknowledge how good she is, it somehow has an effect on their self esteem and career. Basically, they're intimidated by her, by her talent and professionalism. She's a really nice chick too.

One of my all time favourite vocalists. Sorrento Moon, Burn, Wasn't It Good is worth a listen.

[@Steve-ge7ou]

Tina Arena’s live duet with Donna Summer of ‘No more tears (Enough is enough)’ will give you tingles in all your sensitive bits.

[@56music64]

Tina also has a great following in France, she has released a number of albums with her singing in french. She lived o'there for a number of years. I believe she has now returned to live in Australia

[@amandamckenna]

I wondered when you'd get around to our Tina. As soon as I opened the page, I got a smile on my dial, knowing you were in for a treat. Tina is the female equivalent of John Farnham. The entire album (Don't Ask - mid-90s) had Chains (written by Tina, along with some friends), and a plethora of other hits making the whole album is well worth a listen.

[@natevaG85]

This woman is LEGEND. I am so excited to be watching her live at the Sydney Opera House with my mum next month. I've been waiting my whole life to see her ❤

[@IH8COMERCIALRNB]

I mean... Olivia, Tina ,Marcia Hines, and Vanessa are the best vocalists from here by far but there's lots of others; and yes, she's Australian.

[@micksearle6006]

Don't forget Colleen Hewitt, Sharon O'Neill, Christina Anu, Helen Reddy, Kylie Minogue and her sister Danii, Melissa Tsukz or however you spell her last name, Chrissy Amphlett and Judith Durham just to name a few more.

My all-time favourite Aussie female singer introduced to the Australian audiences at the ripe old age of around six she captured our hearts and has never not given her whole heart and talent since , she is down to earth and is a true representative of a no bullshit Aussie woman , you can only improve your musical experience dy listening to more of this truly world-class singer,

[@nicolaj3294]

She's one of my favourite Aussie singers, have all her albums. Saw her live a few years ago, was amazing, she's a true performer, been doing it since she was a kid on TV.

[@karenstrong8887]

Tina is ours, Australian. I have watched her sing every week from when she was a child. She is a gift. I also love Sorrento Moon which was one of her first songs I think. You always knew she would make it. Thank you. 🦋

[@margieguild519]

She's tiny, but mighty! Love her to bits!❤❤ from another Aussie

Congrats. You've discovered another Aussie gem. This lady is a terrific singer and this song is my favourite of hers. Such a rich voice. And a looker too. (Sorry, I didn't realize that the last sentence was out loud.)

[@belindagriffen2948]

BROTHA, THIS IS ONE OF OUR BEST AUSTRALIAN SINGERS! SHE WAS AN ORIGINAL SINGER FROM A FAMOUS MUSIC TV SHOW HERE IN AUSTRALIA SINCE SHE WAS A TEEN, IT WAS CALLED "YOUNG TALENT TIME" HOSTED BY JOHNNY YOUNG!! WHICH WERE A GROUP OF YOUNG TEENAGE SINGERS, WHICH INCLUDED DANNII MINOGUE (KYLIE MINOGUE'S SISTER)!! AND IT LATER INCLUDED KYLIE MINOGUE AS GUEST SINGERS, SINGING WITH HER YOUNGER SISTER DANNII.. BUT OUT OF ALL THE SINGERS, TINA ARENA ABSOLUTELY HAD THE MOST SOULFUL AND STRONGEST VOICE!! TINA ARENA "CHAINS" HIT THE TOP 5 ON THE "ARIA AWARDS". SHE WAS ALSO VOTED "AUSTRALIAS GREATEST FENALE SINGER OF ALL TIME"... CHAINS IS ABSOLUTELY ONE OF THE BEST SONGS OUT THERE, LISTEN TO HER ALBUM "SORRENTO MOON".. AWESOME ALBUM!! HER PARENTS ARE FROM ITALY.. BUT THERE IS ALSO A BEACH TOWN CALLED SORRENTO, IN THE STATE OF VICTORIA AUSTRALIA, WHERE SHE GREW.. ❤

[@qwertyuiop4624]

I have watched videos from a fair number of music reaction channels, and yours is probably my favorite of them all. It's an added bonus listening to your commentary when it is also coming from a singer themself. I find it interesting. Watching you discover for the first time all these amazing Australian music artists definitely evokes some Aussie pride within me. When I saw the thumbnail of Tina performing "Chains", I immediately clinked on it because it was one that I had hoped you would do a reaction video to. Thank you from a recent subscriber.

Tina has been performing in Australia since she was 7. This song was her giant middle finger to a music industry that tried to pigeon hole and force her down a path not of her own choosing. There's an excellent performance 20 years later at the ARIA awards, alongside the Veronica's and Jessica Mauboy. Matt Corby has a fantastic voice but I don't think he's capable of putting the same amount of feeling into the song. This is Tina's fury. Her performance of Burn, also at the ARIA awards is also absolutely brilliant.
