Back in the 1970's I strongly believed he was a fad and would soon be forgotten. Boy, was I wrong! I now accept him as a force of nature.

Got to love how everyone on stage1 is enjoying themselves. JF is the ultimate artist for showcasing other people's talents: he's so generous on stage. Add a touch of TJ and magic happens. I

John and Tom have great respect for each other.

These two touring together is pure magic. Farnham and Jones voices together compliment each other perfectly. And they have fun together.

Two singers that sings in a leauge of their own ❤

John and Tom became great friends. They toured Australia together and I was sad I couldn’t get to one of those concerts. I loved this. Yesterday I watched John sing You’re The Voice when he was 70 and the person who put the video up was shocked that his voice hadn’t changed. It was for charity to raise money for those in the 2019 fires. John always gives and he brings famous friends along. Brian May was on stage with him and many others. I love anything with John and Tom in it. Thank you.

When stars come to Australia (especially back in the 70’s-90’s) we often see the chilled fun side of them, something in the air down here 😂 I think because most of our stars, musicians particularly, are so down to earth. John is a prime example of that 😁

Two legends doing what they do best.

The last guitarist who did the solo was Red Symonds who played in a band called Skyhooks. They had some great songs in the 70’s.

John can sing anything from big ballads to love songs and a favourite of his ‘Long way to the top’. Tom’s really enjoying this one. John is known as ‘The Voice’ because we all love him and he is it!

Great Voices!! Great Artists! Great Track! Great Reaction!!!! Thank You so Much ✌✌✌ 🇦🇺

I also love the version with the MSO. They are all really enjoying themselves and there is a great battle between the guitar and the orchestra. I also love the bagpipe in You're The Voice also by John Farnham. It helps give it that "marching into battle" feel that makes you wanna get up and do something.

Bagpipes were good in John’s “You’re the Voice” as well

This is one of the best performances you’ve ever reviewed. I had a great time watching it, as I’m sure others did too, (probably because we were all smiling in agreement). Re the guitarists, I couldn’t see well due to the low light but one was Brett Garsed who’s been with the band for years. He’s wonderful and has posted some of his own videos on YT which I think you’d like. (One was a tribute to the other longtime guitarist in the band, Stuart Fraser RIP who died in 2019 from lung cancer. Gone far too young.) Re the bagpipes, I’ll go one further and add “You’re The Voice” to the list. I’m not usually a fan either, and I’m half Scottish!

Stuart Frazer the first guitarist there was John Farnham long time guitarists. Before that he was in Noiseworks. Unfortunately he died of a heart attack a while back now. He was a great guitar player.

John does a version of this with the Melbourne or Sydney Symphony Orchestra & the DO the call & answer back between singer or one section of the instruments and other instruments in that one. I think the orchestra members stand, too, when they play. Fun to watch & listen.

Re the bagpipes- in most of John’s renditions of this song, if no bagpiper is on stage, they usually have a guy using a keytar as a midi controller to trigger a real bagpipe track. I can’t see a keytar in this video but they may still be using the track 🤔

I am an Australian , and I have never heard that before . No big surprise about HOW GOOD it is really . Two of the Biggest , most Powerful Voices in Contemporary Music and a Proper Show Band . Bon and Malcolm would have loved it .

My bestie’s Mum almost fainted at this concert, she got tipsy with her friends and let’s say overwhelmed at that point in the concert but like a Trooper she is pulled herself together because she wasn’t going to miss a second 😂

The third guitarist was Red Simmons, from Sky Hooks before becoming the sour one from Hey Hey its Saterday.

What about the bagpipe solo in John's 'Your the Voice' concert in Melbourne? It fits and it's amazing. John could hear the pipes in his head and insisted. So 2 Aussies with bagpipes in monster hits. A Scot reacted to Your the Voice in open mouthed stunned silence, said no-one in Scotland had ever used bagpipes in that way.

Tom has that operatic power crazy imagine if tom sang that in 1960s lol tom is one of the greatest ever

John regards It’s A Long Way To The Top ( if You Wanna Rock N Roll ) his favourite rock song the bagpipes in the original AC/DC version bagpipes was the inspiration for John adding bagpipe solo to You’re The Voice .
