This man is amazing Apparently this is his warmup song before a show

This was never released by him or sung in an actual concert. This was recorded by a savvy sound engineer or something. This is a SOUND CHECK. How many artists do you know who'd dare warm up their voice to this but yet do it as well as the original. AND can sing ANY song in ANY genre. Probs sing the phone book & be mesmerising!

John smacks this song TO THE MOST OUTSTANDING realms. C’mon, WHAT!🤔👏👏👏👏👏🇦🇺

Yeah I know right, John IS THE GOAT in Australia and there’s no doubt about it! 🇦🇺💥

You haven’t missed out on anything with never hearing this song before with Led Zeplen. John just smashed it and made it brilliant. This is we’re John warmed his voice up. The back up singers warmed there’s up too. And the band members could limber up there muscles as well. And all the sound technicians could get the sounds right. We the fans were never meant to hear it. 🤣 So glad we did 🙂

We've had over 50 years of him, have fun catching up. It's interesting also to check him out with LRB in the 80's. Every concert I've ever been to with John has been over the top brilliant. We love him and are wishing him a great recovery from surgery

Way to blow the cobwebs out of your voice before you start a concert. If he could do this as a warm up/sound check...he knew he would have no trouble hitting all the regular set list with ease. Such a shame he never performed it in concert. But luckily it did make it onto an album.

Thank goodness for KZread. It has opened up to the world John’s phenomenal talent. John could have been huge worldwide but chose to stay in Australia to give him and his family a normal life. Hopefully, seeing all these reactions to him will help him heal after his cancer surgery last year. You talked about the battle going on between John and his band. When he and Tom Jones did their concert it was an amazing display of talent. It was like three concerts in one - Tom and his band, then John and his band and then the two on stage together. It felt (to me anyway) that Tom and John tried to outdo each other, in a “best friends” kind of way. They had so much respect for each other. Charlie, if you want more rock and roll I hope you get a chance to react to John singing AC/DC’s hit song “It’s a Long Way to the Top” with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. Once again, a great performance. 😘💕🇦🇺.

@@CVTECK1 although ironically the title has nothing to do with the song. Led Zeppelin literally saw a black Labrador while working on this song and thought it was a good name. But it is a metaphor for depression or sadness.

John tried to launch his career in the US back in the 80s, but American record producers decided that Americans wouldn't like his music, and that was that. So we kept him all to ourselves.

Cool Water (no film clip unfortunately) country and western duet with legendary Aussie country and western legend Smokey Dawson is at the other end of the spectrum (if there is such a thing with John Farnham) to Black Dog and is fantastic. It is worth a listen too.

Black dog on your back is depression.

I hear what you’re saying about the “church” vibe. I think it’s cos of Vanetta Fields, one of his background singers. She is African American and has that style of singing. She has a very powerful voice, but doesn’t bring the attention to herself.

You should try some Led Zep, they were huge in their day. Start with Black Dog for instance. Listen to John doing Amazing Grace with Vanetta Fields and Lindsay Field and you'll get it. Then try his Angels with Lisa Edwards. he has a song called We're no Angels as well.

Led Zeppelin you definitely need to do..anything from the Song remains the same concert Madison's square Gardens

I love that KZread is unearthing another Farnham fan! He can sing any style of music with power and emotion, note-perfect, every time 😍 If you want to hear him sing something even more mind-blowing, check out his performance in the garden of Gethsemane scene from the 1992 Australian production of Jesus Christ Superstar 😀 As for other Aussie rock singers, Jimmy Barnes has a voice that can tear paint off the walls, but he has a soulful side too.

If you want to ease yourself into rock, may I suggest 2 songs. Don’t know if you are familiar with Pearl Jam??? They are my favourite band, formed in Seattle during the grunge era. First suggestion is Pearl Jam - Black Unplugged. This is a stripped down acoustic version so you can hear the lyrics clearly. kzread.info/dash/bejne/qX2A0txxYN28n8o.htmlsi=TgQqkc-gEIthfl-Z Second suggestion is by Pearl Jam lead singer Eddie Vedder - Invincible kzread.info/dash/bejne/loiOrZqbp9Woes4.htmlsi=uwR4AHVCTHAs4JEu Invincible is my equivalent to your Thunder in your Heart!! It is the song I have chosen to be played at the end of my funeral. I don’t understand why people choose hate instead of love. Why can’t we all just get along and appreciate the differences in each other, as that’s what makes us unique. Kindness is free. And that’s the message I want to leave when I exit this life and journey on to the next. Thanks for the trip down memory lane today 🙂 Cheers, Donna

Ok, kinda new to rock eh, looking for something with deep lyrics, then you have to check out Dark Side Of The Moon by Pink Floyd, from start to end, not just a great progressive rock album but one the greatest musical works of the twentieth century, was in the charts for some insane period like 15 years or such. Anyway it's just awesome. Listen to the studio recording first, watch out for copyright issues, you will probably have to make regular interrupts or splash Copyright all over the small screen or something. Anyway too easy to find, hope you check it out, cheers.
