If you're Australian as i am, you know that when John Farnham is singing, something magical is going to happen. 'You're The Voice', probably the best Anti-War song ever written and sung by possibly the best male singer ever to take the stage. John doesnt just sing this song, he lives it and we all feel it.

This one of those songs which really stirs the blood, and gets the hairs on the back of your neck up...so anthemic! In fact, it's also known as Australia's unofficial national anthem. John Farnham is a legend, yet such a humble, down-to earth man. I honestly believe if he had run for Australian Prime Minister, back in the day, he would have won!

Always best to watch John live as you not only get his amazing vocal range but his awesome rapport with his audiences. He's a bit of a larrikin and is an icon in Australia and still is today in his 70's. Most of those teenagers are grandparents now...We had the best music 😀 I think the bagpipes were a tribute to ACDC's Long way to the top.

Glenn Wheatley, former bass player with The Master's Apprentices, was Johnny Farnham's manager at this time and brought his career back. Glenn unfortunately recently died at 73 from Covid but he also managed The Little River Band and he mortgaged his house to finance Johnny's Whispering Jack album which renewed his career. You might want to look at The Master's Apprentices' BECAUSE I LOVE YOU. That would be a nice salute to Glenn who forged new ground for Australian bands in America first.

I'm British born and came to Australia as an 11yr old and we kept up with British traditions and did Irish and Scottish dancing

Hi there, the awesome John Farnham ✌️ Thank you. Don't know it you realise that the flowers in the background of your video look like Red Poppies which are seriously significant in Australia as a tribute to the ANZACS. Look up red poppy meaning for Gallipoli, they are a national symbol for our war veterans 🤗🥰

Funny how you reacted to Farnsey throwing the mike stand off to the side - 4:56 in your video (he was famous/notorious for his onstage antics with a mic stand) but you MISSED at 4:53 when he flings the thing straight up in the air - then catches it ON THE BEAT!
