TOO DAMN COOL! - (REACTION) - Jimmy Barnes & John Farnham - "When Something Is Wrong With My Baby"

[@suewilkinson6103]

You should watch a live version of this song. Even better.

[@lealand423]

Hey hey it's Saturday version

[@BemusingBill]

Better?!?!? Ok! Thank you, my friend!

[@carolynh8866]

​​​@@BemusingBillit's crazy how much better they are live. Just when you think you get the best from an artist in the studio...then you watch John and Jimmy live and you get re-educated lol😂😂. More grit, more gravel, more high notes, more low notes. Just More And no bum notes either... m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/hKuxapiEqbt8aNE

[@alimac1469]

​@@BemusingBill yes, better ❤

[@robbiecarroll5491]

Wait till you go down the rabbit hole of the guitarist Diesel ❤

[@AussieDebb]

The absolute best of the best - salt of the earth, down to earth family men, and genuinely fantastic humans - all 3 of them John is the G.O.A.T. - can sing any genre and has the best stage presence, mic craft, voice and breath control and Jimmy is our Rock, Soul & Blues King. They are phenomenal on their own and together with Diesel - wow! The soul and the power just oozes out of them. Love your reactions to our Aussie legends. Its a Sam and Dave cover. Thanks heaps - what a way to start the day ❤🎉😊

[@BemusingBill]

Ah! Sam and Dave! Awesome, my friend. Thank you 🤘❤️🤘

[@joanmonaghan8428]

The liquor was real in this video shoot. No wonder they had a ball making it.

[@JayMills-zk1kq]

According to people I know, who were there, they both were so smashed, they had to be put into taxis to get driven home. Farnese and Barnsley. An unbeatable combination. 👏👏👏🇦🇺

[@BemusingBill]

🤣🤣🤣Bless em both!

[@carolla_michelle]

Aussie here and we love barnsey & farnsey ❤️❤️ John Farnham was the first concert I ever went to and I got to give him a flower on stage as a 9 yo kid.

[@carolla_michelle]

The guitarist is Johnny diesel and he had a solo career in his own right in the 90’s I wanna say? Yeah I think 90’s primarily

[@BemusingBill]

Wow! That's awesome! 🤘❤️🤘

[@carolynh8866]

​@@BemusingBill and just when you think you get the best performance from an artist in the studio. And then you listen to John and Jimmy live and you get re educated.... You discover that Live they are even better. More grit, more gravel, more high notes, more low notes, more soul, just MORE. And not a bum not to be heard. You will notice that even though they are singing live the band is miming and they are using a backing track. The guitarist also plays live and also sings along at the end. Brilliant performance by all . m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/hKuxapiEqbt8aNE

[@Machetekills31]

Still has one

[@georgeibrahim7945]

Best combo ever. Barnsey, Farnsey and Diesel

[@BemusingBill]

YES!!

[@alyn927]

Love, love, love it

[@sarahberry4389]

Ohh yes!! My new favorite version....the soul coming out of these 2!!! Man. Thank you so much for this song!!! Great reaction

[@BemusingBill]

Thank you so much, my friend! Yeah, those two fellas are phenomenal!

[@squeaky1374]

Guitarist is Jimmy’s brother-in-law and a very accomplished musician in his own right..has a great back catalogue, check him out! Diesel - Cryin’ Shame, Love Junk, Come To Me, Never amiss Your Water, 15 Feet of Snow and a fantastic duet he did with Jimmy, Still Got a Long Way To Go 🤩😎🤘🏻

[@Bellas1717]

Agreed! Technically they’re not brothers-in-law, because they’re connected by two marriages, lol, but they are like brothers at heart anyway.

[@BemusingBill]

Thank you for the info and recommendations, my friend! Yes, I will def be checking out his stuff!

[@WNYretiree]

Love the soul in this one. Two really great voices that harmonize so well. Thanks, Bill, for another great reaction. I'm so glad that you liked this though I had a feeling you would.

[@BemusingBill]

You know me, my sista! Thank you!!!!!!

[@lealand423]

You should see Jimmy in his younger days with Cold chisel singing Wild thing live in 1983 The last stand it will blow your mind.

[@BemusingBill]

I'll have to check that out. Thank you, my friend!

[@miamcknight9138]

Chisel's Wild Thing is the best of the best

[@scentials]

@@BemusingBillyou won’t be sorry. It really is wild 😊

[@elenorlapointe4241]

Love this!

[@libbypallett60]

They did a number of songs together, they are good friends. Get to know John, you will love his stuff, unique voice.

[@karentony3397]

[@annettelane]

This always makes me smile

[@jayneattherock1083]

all three are Great singers, Jimmy John and Diesel (aka Mark Lizotte, who is also Jimmy's brother-in-law - married to sisters) the studio clip is amazing, but the live clips are even better, there are 3 to choose from, - all are amazing, and way better then the studio version, from Hey Hey - kzbin.info/www/bejne/hKuxapiEqbt8aNE from the ARIAs kzbin.info/www/bejne/d4bCk3aZnamKfJY and from Jimmy's Soul Deep Tour kzbin.info/www/bejne/pYXaonSbhrdjqKc AND another song from Soul Deep tour you may like, - 'In The Midnight Hour' Diesel on lead vocals, kzbin.info/www/bejne/qYvaoH-tg7aGi9k , - enjoyed your reaction, thankyou,

[@guccigasbag2780]

I was about to say the same thing about Johnny Diesel.

[@BemusingBill]

Thank you so much for the info, recommendations and links, my friend!

[@heatherwickstead7980]

Talking of "having fun", someone said that bottle of spirits on the table in front of them was full at the beginning of the day!❤😂

[@lisamatic1098]

They got so drunk that when Jimmy put John in a limo to take him home John couldn't remember where he lived so the limo driver had to contact Jimmy to ask him where he had to drop him off.

[@heatherwickstead7980]

@lisamatic1098 😆

[@BemusingBill]

Funny! I bet they are a lot of fun to hang with. Thank you, friend! 🤘❤️🤘

[@narindaovens8410]

Another Aussie here and I love your reactions. Happy to watch your chanel grow.

[@BemusingBill]

Thank you so much my friend! I have an entire Aussie Playlist now, so enjoy the journey! 🤘❤️🤘

[@sammy_dog]

Cold Chisel did a version of this as well i get a feeling Jimmy liked to sing this one

[@BemusingBill]

I'm glad he does! I'll have to check that version as well, Thank you, my friend!

[@sammy_dog]

@@BemusingBill as I type this I am Listening to Jimmy's version of an old Sam Cooke Song A Change is Gonna Come if you haven't heard Jimmy singing that yet do yourself a favour it will blow your socks off look for this version on the tube "Jimmy Barnes - A Change is Gonna Come (1984) (HIGH QUALITY!)"

[@kerrynanderson1996]

They were actually pretty hammered while they were recording this. Farnsey and Barnsley are Australian royalty.

[@BemusingBill]

I love that! Sometimes it takes a little of the sauce to sing with such soul. 🤘❤️🤘

[@rickandersen2284]

❤❤❤

[@louisegough8644]

Yep you're right

[@carolynh8866]

​​@BemusingBill and just when you think you get the best performance from any artist in the studio...then you listen to John and Jimmy sing this live and you get re educated.... you discover that Live they are even better.

[@BemusingBill]

Thank you so much, my friend! I appreciate the info and the link!

[@afternoondelight-i7h]

Its actually a trio. The guitarist, Diesel, is a successful singer in his own right and the brother in-law of Jimmy. He's well worth checking out. He was very big in Australia. Try "15 feet of snow" by him.

[@kazz3956]

This is Cold Chisel singing the same song 9 years earlier in 1982. the whole concert at Rockapalast in Germany is on Casey Cooper’s page. I watch it regularly. Dr Kap has the individual song on her channel. She is another Jimmy fan like me.

[@BemusingBill]

Thank you, my friend! And thanks for the link!

[@Tigers2099]

You should react to Jimmy singing a cover of “a change is gonna come” it is epic!!

[@BemusingBill]

That sounds awesome! Thank you, my friend!

[@dawnpatterson8708]

❤🙂❤

[@BemusingBill]

❤️😁❤️

[@CathVANDERHAM]

FYI you are best to watch Live shows not to listen to studio recordings for both of these guys.

[@BemusingBill]

Thank you for the advice, my friend!

[@karenstrong8887]

John is always better live. I love it when anyone tries to out power him and fails.

[@BemusingBill]

I think they are both better live!

[@joycie014]

Actually, you should always try to react to live performances where possible. Totally different vibe and in my humble opinion, it sounds so much better. Glad you’re enjoying these two powerhouse singers. 🥰

[@BemusingBill]

I would definitely check out the live version(s) as well. This was the link that I was given for the request, and I loved it. Yeah, these guys are both amazing!

[@Nugget28]

[@dalewyatt1321]

Find a live version when you listen to see 2

[@BemusingBill]

Yes!

[@Love_sChild]

You need to check our Stone Cold by Jimmy Barnes.

[@BemusingBill]

I did one with him and Joe Bonamassa. In fact, my first listen to Barnsey. kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZKwXniqqsh2pa8

[@Love_sChild]

@ awesome song. My fave Barnsley song. Thanks for replying Bill! 👍

[@GaryNoone-jz3mq]

It's a Gibson. Of course it's clean!

[@dregnar85]

I see you like metal music, you gotta check out Farnseys songs from RAD the movie. BREAK THE ICE, THUNDER IN YOUR HEART.

[@BemusingBill]

Yeah, I kinda dig metal although I have no idea what makes you think so! 😁I don't remember the movie or if I have ever seen it. I'll have to check out those songs. Thank you, my friend! 🤘❤️🤘

[@kerryhamilton1968]

Have a look at Jimmy's Stone Cold with Joe Bonamassa.

[@BemusingBill]

That's the first one I ever did! I have a Aussie Playlist on my channel now so check it out!

[@emanderson5453]

Now watch Johnny Farnham sing Sadie the Cleaning Lady at 16

[@BemusingBill]

Nice! Thank you, my friend!

[@simonmartin-zp7kt]

OK Bill. Jimmy and Micheal Hutchence (INXS), John and Australias premiere soprano Anthony Warlow, John with Olivia Newton-John, Jimmy with Joe Bonamassa...just fall down the Australian music rabbit hole mate. You Americans missed and ignored decades of amazing music.
