John is a master at throwing the mic stand around the stage…walking up to it a flick it with his foot and stand it up and walk around with it 😂😂😂😂💞💞💞👏👏👏👏👏🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺I’m 72 and have seen him in concert many times in the 80’s & 90’s

That’s why we 💗💗💗💗💗 & adore him. He is the G.O.A.T! He was admitted back in hospital for a respiratory infection. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻he gets better, however long he has to recuperate 💗💗💗💗💗

Thanking you, we love him. His presence and his band, the best live so many times. Seen many bands in the 70’s 80’s these musicians world class. I’m 68

Saw John live one of the greatest performers with one of the greatest voices of alltime cannot think of anyone better the real GOAT

This version of this great classic was epic. I think this version is the best. John’s voice so versatile, can adapt to any genre John can do it. This was one of a few encore songs from a two hour concert and John still has so much energy and voice still perfect. And everyone is having so much fun. Awesome performance from everyone.

John is the GOAT! Love your honest, thoughtful reactions to our beloved John. He is part of the family. He has been taken back to hospital with a severe respiratory infection after already having 11hr surgery to remove part of his jaw due to mouth cancer late last year. We are all praying for John's recovery from this latest health setback. Much love from Australia 🇦🇺💕

John Farnham is that one person who goes beyond music. The love we feel for John goes beyond being just fans. He is part of our lives and part of our families and has been forever. We found out a couple of days ago that he is back in hospital with a respitory infection and we are all now collectively wishing him a speedy recovery ❤️ BTW. I have shared this reaction to a fan page that I know he and his family looks at sometimes. So hopefully he will see your message. ❤

What a great thing to share this to a fan page for John. I know he would so appreciate all the love he receives from not only his Aussie fans, but also all these international reaction channels to his music. He is one humble soul. I hope he is recovering from his respitory infection.

Oh no! You left off the grand finish!! The pause you ended on is followed by the whole band and orchestra going even more insane!! There may or may not be an instrument destroyed, but you'll have to watch the end to find out. I was side-on to the orchestra at this concert, and it was joyful. You could tell the orchestra were having the time of their lives! No one slept that night.

Yes you are right apart from the phenomenal voice he has such a great connection with the fans they are up dancing having the time of their life. Just look at the musician's smiling and the conductor showing how much fun they are having. Band and singers been with him for ages great bond with them like family to John great relationship. Live on stage you don't just see the singer you get the man his wonderful personality shines through his banter with the fan's connection with them his yes fun playful side. What you see is what you get with John humble,down to earth kind,caring, loving man no ego at all a mate you could go to the pub with,normal guy next door man. Apart from his phenomenal voice x wonderful music we connect with the man and his voice and music. How he sings the lyrics so much soul,heart ,passion and emotion in every song. Music is for all ages, religions it can make you happy and sad. John Farnham is my therapist he takes me to my happy place and makes the world and life a little easier to cope with when life is getting me down and struggle day to day he is my escape. Music/ John is my meditation and John touches a lot of people with his voice music and amazing personality. Thing is with John he is so humble he doesn't realise how good he is. 🇬🇧 Farnsey Fan 🇬🇧

If John see this reaction to his music and hears your sincere admiration for his talent, and your best wishes for his health, he will appreciate it. He is very humble and really doesnt believe that he so widely loved and adored. Thankyou for this great reaction, and your sincere wishes for his recovery.

John is a supremely generous performer. He always allows the other performers shine alongside him.

And you're right...he can be running jumping bending down mucking around but the vocal is always top notch recordable.

Sadly 2 days ago John was rushed back to hospital with a respiratory infection not connected to his recent surgery. Fingers crossed and all the love we can muster❤

check out the smile on the conductors face he's having a great time

The Conductor was Dobbs Franks. When interviewed after this series of concerts he said that it was an amazing, joyful part of his musical career.

This whole number was meant to be the ultimate culmination of the orchestra’s involvement, showcasing all the musical instruments.

Next one Black Dog. It's his sound check song, no studio recording., just an audio done by someone on stage at the sound check. It's legendary.

This song was originally done by AC/DC another amazing Aussie band and the original has bagpipes in it. Bon Scott the lead singer actually learned the bagpipes for this song. 😊

John Farnham is like “HOME” 🥰🥰 that is why he is so loved ❤️❤️

And you sir are now officially an 'Honorary Aussie" 😘🦘🦘 Wow what a reaction! Yes John is more than just a singer....he leaves everything on the stage with his performances. This one is such fun, love how the whole band/orchestra come together even the backing groups get down and interact with the audience. Later in his career he and the great Tom Jones did an Australian Tour together....now that is something to see. Sending much love and gratitude from Sydney, Australia.

What a beautiful from the heart reaction ❤ 👏👏😊 yes we love and appreciate him . Took me a few years to finally be able to go to one of his concerts but he NEVER let me down EVER

That's what Aussies try to be - so welcoming you feel like we're all family. Glad we have been that for you.

Great reaction and welcome to the Farnham family, let’s all together help more people become part of this family and keep this amazing Human’s legacy continue for decades to come. My son is 5 and his favourite song is John’s ONE is the loneliness number.

So glad you are spreading the message to others in your country about John Farnham's wonderful music. His legacy will live on.

Great reaction and you nailed it in your comments, It's not only his awesome singing that make him popular with fans, it is the fact that he loves and appreciates his fans and shows in the interaction he has with his fans during concerts. You have worked out he is a fun guy watching his performances, if you get a chance watch some of the interviews he does on Australian talk shows, it will really re-enforce that thought

LOVE LOVE LOVE it great reaction Yes John is THE VOICE for ever

Yes! John Farnham is the GOAT! Best ever, anywhere in the world. Who else can perform like he can? Who else can sing the variety of music genres like he does to perfection? Who else has done phenomenal performances and live concerts for 50+ years? Who else is backed by the best band of musicians & backing singers ever, plus often with The best modern Symphony Orchestras as well. Who else has people of ALL ages love him and love his live concerts &?music. He is one of a kind! Simply the best!

Love your reactions bro to this legend. We know you appreciate John, his music, his voice, his character and we appreciate you too

Great reaction, as always. This was the second encore, last song of the concert and he brought the roof down, so much fun. Years later, when I got the DVD, it was so cool to see how much fun the orchestra were having, I guess they didn't get to do music like that every day. Did you see when John was playing that tambourine and he literally bounced it off the floor and caught it? So John. Thank you for this. ❤

I so agree with you. I love the big ones like everybody else but the ones that get into my heart are the little ones for which there isn't even a video let alone a live version.

do you realise this was the concert that he sang "Help" at the end off. Such a enormous effort!!!

Everyone was on their feet and the place was moving !!! This was the final song of the night Prior to the encores - pleural🎉🎉🎉

Spectacular reaction and merging into the family! WELCOME... from one American to another. We can't help but love this amazing man and such world-class Aussie talent and heart. A shout-out to AC/DC. Their song is fire and with John and the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra and friends it is a conflagration! So many Australian performers need to be more widely experienced. Their talents, like precious opals in depth, coloration, and variations, are treasure that needs to be brought further into the light.

Yep we love him❤

That bagpipe sound is on the keytar, a keyboard and guitar combined into one.

Never overlook the production. ohn's backers are supreme (mark that word) talents in their own right. Lisa Edwards, Lindsey field, Venetta Fields (backed for the Supremes) and the Southern Sons lead singer have backed for him, add the writing talent that surrounds him. He respects and honours them all and like previous vids is never afraid to humble himself.

He just makes you feel great

The conducter is having a ball ❤😂

Thank you for your awesome reaction and appreciation of our National treasure, John Farnham! Please get well soon John. 💕💐Your phenomenal music helps lift my spirits every single day. ❤🎶So I’m now sending you all my love and well wishes for a speedy recovery. Xoxoxo🫶🥰🎶🎵🌈💕🍀🤞🙏

Check out this song with him 70yo he still got it after all these years. Well ,its long way to the top, but another story to stay on that top like he did before he got sick. The voice of all time. ❤

The reason the keyboard thing sounds like bagpipes is because in the original track by AC/DC, they used bagpipes.

There are so many great Aussie bands, its a deep rabbit hole

Agreed about "not even a reaction" but I've watched this concert more times than I should admit and every time I watch, it just fills me with so much love and joy. I enjoy seeing others find him and enjoy him too x

You’ve shown him and his fans such respect by these comments at the end of your video. Thank you. I’m looking forward to more from you. From another 67 year old 😊

Good pick up with the bagpipes mate, in the original ACDC Long Way To The Top, Bon Scott 'plays' the bagpipes(some say he was playing, some say he was faking), they are on the back of a truck going up the main street in Melbourne, well worth the watch. From a 61 yo who has seen John perform 6 times, this was his best concert, and I wasn't even there.

He’s a cheeky man also funny we love him so much he’s the best. Luv Him.xxxxxxx
