    What do think of him now having endorsed the YES campaign, having sold out for a cool 30 million and then having all blown up in his face the referendum lost huh?! Like Ray Martin before he's a hated and marked man for being a traitor/sell out some 35 years later?! He can never enter the show spotlight again you realize and he helped divide our country too after 40 years?!!. I'm sure at the time, it must of felt magical to be a part off this video clip?! Have no reservations that now he is finished!!!!!

He’s under gone a fair bit of savage surgery to get it out tho. I thought we were going to loose him to 😥. Hopefully we get to keep Jonny on the planet for while longer yet.

    @Dead Well actually, Camie R.-S. is right just because John, moved to Australia in 1959 doesn't mean that he changed his national identity to Australian, because he's still British as well, he's been back to the UK a few times since he moved to Australia, to promote his smash hit You're the Voice on Top of the Pops in London which was a UK top 10 hit at the time, he performed Age of Reason on Terry Wogan's show in 1988, performed at the Prince's trust concert in Birmingham in 1989 and performed in London in 1988, 1991 and 1998. It's just sad that John only had one hit, I mean just think he could've been huge in the UK, I blame his manager for not giving him enough promotion in the UK, and I also blame the UK's self obsession with American music because America has got nothing to do with the UK.

    Farnham really was a "one hit wonder" here in his birth country. Ask anyone in England from the 80s, and they'll name You're The Voice as the John Farnham song they know. And it's a great tune, I can't deny. Very rousing. Kind of an anthem, I suppose. But.......for me this one hits spots You're The Voice doesn't. I can't explain it.....Age Of Reason is just utterly and truly phenomenal. And I'm so so so glad I tuned into my local radio station (Invicta FM) that day, as a teen, in the late 80s when I did. Because, had I not, this song's abysmal showing in the UK charts means I would never ever have been introduced to one of my all time favourite tracks....

    @JohnFarnham-ln8uh hi John you probably don't know me but my brother years back drove you by taxi to your home. You took him through the back entrance in Melbourne. He said you had the best attitude for a person who is famous because you talked to him like a normal person. You tipped him good too. From that conversation you sound like a top notch well balanced man. I been a fan of yours since I was in year 7 in 1987. Your voice is remarkable too. The Taxi ride was just under 1hr long. This happened around 1998-99ish I think.

    @snap-n-shoot life is about, choices, family, country, area, environment, classes, lifestyle, quality or lack there of in life, your job on the planet, is to find away to make the difficult decisions better, no matter how good and bad about it is. This planet is about experiences, experiences equals knowledge, experience and knowledge equals wisdom. You understand all three, you share your wisdom by passing it on to others. Lessons are learned in sickness, just as much as a billionaire operating at the highest echelons of his prime performances. It's what you do in life that matters and how to learn and understand humility. The human soul can not die, death is not to be feared. To become the image of God, we must learn every which way to handle yourself through the quagmire of choices, and that is also to learn how to remember your divinity within a finite body. You are much more than your body and not all of you is in your body. You are a multi dimensional person having a limited life on earth. You came to the planet before your mindset went into a coma. What would be the point being here if you had all your knowledge of other lives you had right now. No point being here to learn on high-school earth, you'd already would have passed your grades. Don't fear anything if sometimes you can connect more consciously on a higher level than your humbled beginnings. Don't rush this life, because even the smallest of small details has it's moments of beauty. Not just the determination of a goal you are wanting to achieve. What's the point strolling into the forest if you forgot why you were there in the first place.

Search...Glad I have now 'saved it'. As this song seems to echo the thoughts, and attitudes, of our HRH Prince Philip, and Sir David Attenborough...And HRH Prince Charles, and many more who have these lyrics as part of their life goals. Great John!! A truly brilliant song. Can I dedicate this song to Prince Phillip's memory? 18.4.2021. Having watched the live broadcast of his family funeral in the early hours of this morning, on TV, like many millions around the world. .What a man, what a life!! What a legacy..... God bless his family, with deep sympathy. Thoughts, and much respect, from.... New Zealand. x

    This song came out when I was being terrorized in 5th grade (whatever the equivalent is elsewhere), but since the past is dead and gone I hear with a clear and loving mind a clear and loving song. John Farnham has a great voice and a great heart. He's a huge influence both vocally and lyrically on me. Today's music doesn't care. There is no real love in it. People are not singing anymore they are making themselves into instant touch and go pop stars. That is not what music is all about. NO! Music is about what's in your heart and expressing what's in your heart. I hope to bring something new to the table and I'm geared up for it. The big part of that "Something new" is rewinding music back to when it was great music and not rubbish fit more for a garbage can than a record album! John Farnham is great. Thanks for inspiring me, John.

    unbelievably John Farnham was 30 years ahead of recent times, this song is more timely than ever. And this is real music to hear, enjoy and deeply think the message behind the lyrics.

    Tragically, he wasn't 30 years ahead. This was the spirit of the late 80s. It was a period of extraordinary wisdom and forward thinking. Then the 90s began and our future was smothered in its cot. You're looking at the crossroads and the road not taken.

    While I agree but this track is based off 80's enthusiasm and naiveness because it was SO good back then and nothing more..It's all too easy to be open and caring to the "Age Of Reason" concept when times were good, now after some 31 years later it's the concept of go woke and now broke...A growing silent minority are now no longer interested in that concept anymore as the "Age Of Isolation" and Pro Exit U.N. are now creeping in.

    I remember this song as a time in Australia where we were all softened down to accept new immigrants...Farnham was used as a mouth piece through his lyrics to support this..True aussies never wanted mass immigrantion from non European countries...We never had a vote on it,it was PUSHED onto Australia through coercion..

    This song makes me sad. It’s so beautiful, and full of hope. It moves me perhaps even more than “you’re the voice”, It’s like there was so much potential in the 80’s for the world and now it’s lost. The 80’s seems like the 60’s, full of hope and change, but it’s like it was never fully realised. And I wasn’t even born until 1990, but when I hear this song it’s so nostalgic, takes me back to what things were like in the 80’s. But I think it’s people so concerned about the world, which is great, but forgetting about close family, and neighbours.

    Whispering Hack needs to go back home to England to spend his final days. He's no longer welcome in this country anymore, after everything he was given, all the privileges he had for 50 years. This is how he repays us by endorsing a corrupt, racist yes campaign which lost. But it doesn't matter as he has his 30 million for being a traitor sellout. He should go back to where he came from.
