Nick, awesome review. Now imagine being a young Aussie kid and growing up with this as your constant example of what an amazing singer is supposed to sound like. Sing any genre, be flawless live and sound 10 times better live than he ever does on recordings. We’ve all been so blessed and privileged to have him in our lives for over 5 decades.

Perfectly put. How lucky we were/are to witness this voice throughout our lives. God I miss him live. If only time could have stood still for him so that he could still spread that gift in person. There will never be another like him. Good singers come and go, but John Farnham is the all round package.
His sense of humor was almost every person in Aus back then. Its changed alot since but a good chunk of us still try to remain laid back with a good chuckle.
John has respect for all the musicians on stage, race is not an issue
I dont think you realise how many forgotten and heart felt memories you are bringing back to your audience, thank you💜
His music really did bring change and is the reason we class him as our national treasure and literally regard 'You're the Voice' as our anthem. He really did stand up for EVERY VOICE, and made us believe that we standing together could get through ANYTHING war, flood, fires, famine, racism and segregation.
The fact that you love his voice, his messages, his showmanship is so beautiful I am in tears!!!! John has just lost his best buddy Glenn Wheatley - the man who quit his own rock star career to rescue John from oblivion. He mortgaged his house to produce "Whispering Jack" and get John out there to be noticed. Glenn and John had been together as Manager and star and best buddies for the last 40 years.... John is over 70yo now and losing Glenn brings home the reality that we will lose John sooner than we'd like.... and the world is only now just finding him! 💖🥲🦘💫
John respects all people ,and talent on stage he is just one person in the team and appreciate all members of the band that's why they have stayed with him for so long
He sings John Lennon and Martin Luther King words in this song....beautiful....
Ven was him backup singer for years 💗 she was amazing and they played around on stage with their voices they were beautiful together 💗👏🇦🇺
Best male singer out of Australia, period.
John once said ‘I don’t have one cool bone in my body, I can’t pretend I’m not enjoying himself’ but he can also convey a serious message. Just love this man ❤️
He believes in what he is singing! He treated everyone the same. You would have loved him. He is so special as a singer and a human being! The world needs more people like him ! YOU ARE ONE OF US - THATSINGERREACTIONS!
I listen to this song when I want to scream and hurt people. When someone else attacks my beautiful Korean daughter for looking different and no other reason. I was raised to believe we are all the same and I taught my kids the same thing. I listen to this because John makes me calm again. Now I need to know if those days will come before I die. I can’t deal with much more pain from ignorance and hate. Most are just afraid of what they don’t know. God didn’t make a mistake when he gave us our children. They are all exactly right. John makes it better and to keep believing.
Can’t tell you how happy it makes us Aussies that you have found John and love him like we do. 💕💕💕

Every Xmas at my family's house my mum puts Johnny Farnham on ever since I was a kid for as long as I can remember. One year my father said "how bout putting something else on love poor old Johnny has been singing for 3 days straight I'm sure he'd like a drink".
I'm the same age as Jon.His music is the soundtrack of my life.when I fell in love ,married,had kids and battled with the ups and downs of life.there was always a song to cheer me.Now I'm retired and I count myself lucky to fill my house with this uplifting music and teach my grandchildren about traditional aussie values.thank you for spreading his joy.
This song is probably more relevant now then when it first came out. What a performance, what a voice wow wow wow
His voice always makes my hair stand up, I love this legend so much, he is Australia!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤
He's used those two women as BVs for years. Venetta Fields and Lisa Edwards. Venetta is American born and has sung with some of the greatest stars. She adopted Australia in 1982. Have a look at her Wiki page.

Johnny always gives me goosebumps… grew up listening to him
Fair dinkum Nic, I, for one, say you don't have to be concerned about how often you stop the videos to tell us what is going on in your mind. I believe that most of us are here for your reactions, descriptions, and explanations so keep pausing the videos as often as you feel the need to; if we really, desperately want to watch the video without interruption we can find it on KZread to do so. For me, the fact that your reaction videos are live to recording without edits is what makes them so much more interesting and appealing than any other 'reaction videographer' I have come across on KZread. Keep up the great work Nic.
This is such a powerful song and John has such a huge heart and social conscience it’s one of the things I love about him besides his killer voice I heard him sing when I was young Imagine if you can Imagine if the world was one A brotherhood of man I have a dream I heard him say A dream in black and white I have a dream (That all men are created equal) A dream of civil right In days to come we'll see the sun As more than just a star In days to come we'll be as one No matter where we are

Jack Jones on rhythm guitar compliments John's vocals perfectly
I always liked the message of this song but thought it came from an overseas songwriter. I didn't realise John co-wrote it with Ross Fraser and David Hirschfelder. Makes me respect it - and Farnsy - even more ☺

In Whispering Jack they were from other writers, but in hist later albums he was more and more likely to have had a hand in the writing of them himself.
My favourite Farno song. Great message, great production and brilliant singing. Should have been a big hit in the US of A.
I watched John's documentary "Finding the voice". There was so much I didn't know about him especially with his struggles in 70's. It's good to see him achieve fame and his goals. Long live John Farnham.
I love the concert version. I grew up with John Farnham and loved his early stuff - especially. I think this song is my favourite.
John's long-time manager Glenn Wheatley died last week. Before he managed Little River Band, John Farnham and Delta Goodrem, he was in an Australian band called The Masters Apprentices that had hits including It's Because I Love You and Turn Up Your Radio (mostly instrumental). You might be interested in listening to them - a pretty influential Aussie band.
SO glad you’re going into the Chain Reaction live era. My personal favourite concert series from John.
You are so right, bro. This is a brilliant song, with a great message, delivered so brilliantly by John and the entire ensemble. One of the best of his catalogue for sure.
I've been to 5 of his concerts and he is absolutely incredible live. and I have met him and the rest of his team. He's lovely
In this Song he name checks John Lennon, Martin Luther King and Bob Dylan…. The wonderful Venetta Fields on Backing Vocals…. BV for acts such as Humble Pie, Boz Scaggs, Cold Chisel and John…. A wonderful song…🇦🇺👍.

She was also backing vocals for Pink Floyd and The Rolling Stones. That’s rock royalty right there.
Can’t believe this song is being covered. My late grandfather and I use to sit and listen to this together and sing. Such an underrated song of his, thank you for this reaction ❤️
One of the best reviews of this song... looovvee Farnesy he's a national treasure!!! Yes that was the same concert where he sang "amazing grace" as I was there.. I still get goosebumps watching these videos coz I was there.. JOHN IS THE BEST!! Its just a shame he never toured overseas coz he would've been HUGE!!! especially in America, but he declined because he had a young family at the time... so he only toured Australia 🇦🇺
I'm so glad you have discovered why we love him so much here in Australia.
Nick, this song is very underrated and you are so right, it is very easy to become obsessed with John Farnham's songs, voice and music. I really enjoy your reactions you are so honest and knowledgeable.
Awesome mate. Glad someone sent you this one. This is one of my favs and I knew it would touch you. This should have been a world wide smash single. The message is as true in the 90’s when it was released as it is today and we all should live this song.
I've been watching your reactions to Aussie artists and it has given me life recently. So interesting that decades since this music was released it is given new life from you finding it. While those of us who grew up with it still love it it has a revived feeling seeing your genuine excitement for it. It's funny how music from your homeland feels different and really captured the feeling of the time it was written. Love it thank you ⭐
This is one of his best concerts. And this song...... OMG
To put in context of Australia back in the 80’s when this was. Australia was very YT!!!!!! So for him to have such a multicultural group is massive! Also to sing about such topics is such a big indication to his character. His vocals I can’t even comment because he can do no wrong in my eyes.

Yes! I agree! I did love australia back then but I am proud I live in a time when my son can go to school with all races and he sees no difference. And that’s the way it should be. John Farnham has the best of the best in his band for what they do and nothing else
John's talent is undeniable however something that constantly shines through in his music is the acknowledgement that he constantly provides his support crew and background vocalists. In this video alone, I saw his constant support of Lisa Edwards (Angels) who is in nearly all his performances, the American lady of colour Vaneta Fields who had an amazing career in Australia and I believe Jack Jones from Southern Sons fame who was the guy with long hair in the red shirt. John is selfless performer who always attempts to raise those around him and that is one of his attributes that I most admire.
Great song, great message, great reaction❤
Immediate like on this video. In Days To Come and See The Banners Fall are two beautiful, meaningful songs that I love just as much as You're The Voice.
WoW love this song could listen to this all day long. Mr Farnham & Co you nailed it but should i expect any different
My heart nearly bursts of love for him❤❤❤❤
I love watching you appreciate our great Aussie talent and as much as anything that’s because your reactions are really pertinent and well expressed. Thanks for taking us along with you to share the fun.
I classify this as easy listening what I love is his generosity he is happy to share the stage with all members of his band everyone gets their moment and that is what makes him not just a great singer/performer. So glad you are getting to appreciate him as we do. 👏
I love the words to this song and the message it brings. "You're The Voice" is another song that tells us not to be afraid to speak up when we see something wrong. To be able to stand together as one is a powerful thing. John has always been a humble guy with a big heart. He's the GOAT!
My childhood growing up listening to John farnham
Wayne Nelson and Lyndsey Field's' "in days to come" background vocal at the very end still gives me goosebumps.
Another of his very underrated songs. He still has many more you haven’t heard yet!
I love this song. " In days to come we'll be as one, no matter where we are" Thanks so much 😘
One of my favourite songs by our boy
my first time reacting to this, great song
So glad you love 💕 our Australian artist’s so much 🇦🇺💗👏👏👏
I still hear his songs, not only because of his grade boys will because most of his lungs are kind of like anthems anyway. They stick with you, they’re so catchy and are like earworms.
I was at this concert - thanks for covering it! His band are amazing too, I think we took them for granted back then but today you don't see a band or solo artist get much airtime on mainstream tv like his concerts got between 1987-1991 period (and beyond).
Can't wait for you to hear him hit another big hit if his called "That's Freedom " he really belts that song out,it's not an easy song to sing
Wow needed this may have cried at the breakfast table. Forgot this one, what a catalogue John F has. Absolute superstar with a superstar team around him.
Hey mate. YES this has a powerful message in the lyrics. Hopefully one day the world will be as one without judgement/prejudice/ racism etc and peace will be a normal part of life. Killer and timeless song from Farnsy 🔨🥁🦘🙏

Good old Farnsy! This takes me back to the 80s. Milk bars, Chico rolls, crystal cylinders board shorts and t shirts. Memories!
Love John Farnham and love that you love him and your reactions to our Aussie talent. Thanx for expanding your wings over to Australia ❤❤❤
Super reaction! Yes, we can all still here that voice x🙏
I love this song .so cleverly put together
You know i been hearing John for over 50 years , but i never knew how good he was until you pointed out some things, he is a living legend here in Australia ,and we all hope he gets better and can sing his beautiful songs once more
Can’t wait to see reactions to Pressure Down and Touch of Paradise. Two of John’s best IMHO 😊
You said his singing affects you. You nailed it that is why we love him so much. He sings from his soul. ❤❤❤
T One of the backup singers is Vanetta Fields who started her career as an Ikette. Ike & Tina Turner.
Thanks for playing this. I love this vocal performance from John and it's a terrific song. He's got a few songs with social messages. You're right - John can "sell" that message.
You are so right Nick you can hear his voice long after the song has finished. He is wonderful. I have his songs in my head during the day as I work.

So true!
This was actually a different concert from the one you saw where he sung Amazing Grace with Vanessa Fields. He very much shifted the spotlight to the talent of his entire band several times every concert to allow all of their individual talents shine. The guitarist you see in the red shirt is the lead singer of Southern Sons, that you have reacted to already also. He spotlights the band in this concert and gives them a huge shout out if you see the entire concert. I would say that if you want to see how Australians view him though, throughout the years. He performed You're the voice twice at our ARIA awards (our version of your Grammy Awards) and you see how those in the industry with him, view him as such an icon also. I will link them here for you to check out in your own time as I know you have already reacted to the song before. kzread.info/dash/bejne/qYCjrdZpepTfXcY.html - This is the show he is inducted into the hall of fame in 2003 kzread.info/dash/bejne/e3uryZqSaNvapbA.html&ab_channel=JohnFarnham - This appearance was in 2016 As for other things to see how he really is as a person, you can find a lot of TV interviews with him where you get even more of a feel for the true Aussie bloke he is.

Venetta Fields. Jack Jones is the guitarist. Champ of a guy. I miss Southern Sons.
Interesting request. This is definitely one of John's lesser known songs, from the Chain Reaction concert. I'd love to see you react to All Our Sons and Daughters (another lesser known song, from the same concert!) as it really shows off some of John's vocals - but either way, cool to see some of these more obscure tracks be reacted to

Yep. A criminally underrated song. One of my favourites, even today.
I've heard this song rarely on the radio. It's so powerful in many different ways. ☮
A lot of people just don't seem to get that most of us just don't care about a person's skin colour.
Nick i so wish you could have seen John live in concert in his prime.
Such a timeless song. And you are so right..his voice lingers in your mind. I find listening to him very healing and comforting.
As well as John singing I am enjoying your responses. So touching🎉
No, the concert with the version of Amazing Grace you saw was Whispering Jack live from 1987. This is Chain Reaction live from 1990. And Who’s Loving You with Human Nature was from his 50th birthday concert in 1999. Human Nature didn’t appear on the scene until 1996.
He is such a legend! Amszing voice.
Hey Nick, great reaction as always… I reckon you would love the video clip to this song too (the other one you briefly clicked on at the start)… it’s got some powerful visuals…
I LOVE Farnsey such an Aussie staple growing up for all of us. I forgot about this classic I lover it bk in the day! Straight to Spotify to listen again! Enjoying your Australian content ☺
Nic, you have such a manner, intelligence and way with words when it comes to music. To have you love a song I love just makes my heart sing (thank gpodness that's silent though because it would probably also be off key -- LOL).
I had childhood leukaemia when John was at his height, thank you for introducing him to me again, incredible talent
Beautiful I love this one and your reaction great thankyou
This tour was my first ever concert I went to. John Farnham with southern sons and Sam Brown in support. Amazing.
My Mum got the Chain Reaction vinyl for christmas, It was the go to LP in our household growing up, she use to kick us out of the house & then crank it while she did the housework. Lol ...and then we would have it blaring when she was at work. Best thing, she still has it! Priceless! hmmm... not that we would ever sell it, but I wonder how much the original first release Chain Reaction Vinyl record goes for these days?
Many of his songs had messages You're The Voi e Age Of Reason, Day's To Come and many more. He's just the best human 🥰😌
This was the "Chain reaction" tour.....Amazing Grace was v on the "Whispering Jack" tour. Both great gigs and all the others I've seen.

I'm so glad you watched the live version of this song. The album version is fantastic, but this live version as on another level. I love the references to Lennon, Dylan, MLK and the social / generational experiences of his childhood. The quality of John's writing contributions to the CHAIN REACTION album make it an anomaly in his recording career. This song is very under appreciated; as is the whole album itself. 5🌟s A magnificent piece of work.
I always loved this song ❤️
I love this song, and this human being
You got shiney eyes with this one 💫💫🤩🤩💫💫
You’re right, Nick. He can convey a message and a very important one at that. Hopefully humanity reaches the stage, at some point, when we won’t have to keep singing songs that contain such messages, because it would just be understood that we are all created equal ♥️
Unfortunately Johns long time manager passed away last week …John is apparently devastated
I was hoping you would hear this song by John! What a message hey! His songs from Whispering Jack & Chain Reaction Albums & Tours are so relevant NOW!!! Need to be heard by the World! Thanks for sharing Cheers Debbie
My parents had a tape of this and it would play in our house all the time. Fantastic concert!
