I am 79 yrs old as a youngster I also danced to Olivia,she sang at the local dance hall along with her friend Pat Carroll.

I'm so glad you reacted to this song with Olivia, may she Rest In Peace. This is such beautiful and poignant verson. Please join me in wishing John a complete recovery from his own battle cancer where he recently underwent a marathon operation for oral cancer where part of his jaw was removed. Such a horrific decease. Praying for him and all cancer sufferers 🙏🙏🙏❤️

Music makes my blood flow too.cant live without it

John Farnham is the greatest singer in the world. Many major artists agree.

R.I.P. Olivia, fly high beautiful lady thank you for your music, and your wonderful holistic cancer centre. . 🙏🏻❤️

Such a beautiful song and angelic performance by both John and Olivia. The acting, the vocals, stage presence, John’s mic control and his vocal range is epic, seemingly endless. And on that last few notes I think John was singing even higher than Olivia’s. Just magic. You need to do more of John’s epic music, from a solo kid to LRB years and after. Bridge over troubled waters, great early performance (1970) I think, chain reaction with an epic and marathon harmonica solo, and let me out with an epic marathon guitar solo from Brett Garsed are a few great ones, and many more.

John and Olivia are best mates. Hence the incredible chemistry. ❤️

They were great mates and so beautiful ❤😊

I was there in the audience that night. The chemistry was electric. They really loved one another - as friends, but it was love & mutual appreciation 💞💞

When l was a young lad growing up in the 50's and 60's, celebrating wedding anniversaries was a big thing; there would be big celebrations, and the appropriate present. The big ones being Silver 25th, Gold 50th and Platinum 70th; other significant ones were Tin10th, China 20th, Pearl 30th, Ruby 40th and Diamond 60th.

John still refers to his wife as "the bride" which,after so many years,is wonderful.I don't think he has ever revealed what she calls him !

I traveled to Melbourne Australia just to see John Farnham in concert,collected all his music since Whispering Jack album ❤️🎶

I was excited to see that you reacted to this performance. The chemistry between John and Olivia is amazing, johns vocals are just on another level.

I love ALL John's live performances and this song in particular has always been a favourite, but this song has never sounded (or LOOKED) better than in this duet with Olivia. The mutual love and respect they have for each other from such a long lasting friendship, its beautiful to see!

I knew from the start, this song would get you; unfortunate that Rollen couldn't be there too. This song is both uplifting, and sorrowful, at the same time; unfortunately my heart's not free either, as I'm in love with someone else. So it really impacts me.

You have to do them singing You’re the one that I want (the song from grease) at this same concert. Farnham blows Travolta out of the water haha

Love your reaction! I was at this concert, it was the best. Luv from Australia ❤️🎼❤️🎼❤️

They were the centerpiece at the opening ceremonies of the 2000 Sydney Olympics. They sang Dare To Dream, and you can see it here on KZfaq. They've recorded at least two Christmas albums together, and enjoy singing together as much as their busy lives, and living on opposite ends of the planet will allow!

Just brought a 60 year old Man to tears...

And John and Olivia always just been really good, nothing more but they have really good chemistry on stage to tell the story of the songs.

I was at that concert and it was absolutely amazing. John and Olivia have been great friends for years. She said she always wanted to sing with him. Who could blame her?

Beautiful song great reaction ! I’m sure you’re missing Rollen but he’ll be home soon and you’re doing so well holding the fort while he’s gone!

They have been close friends since they were young i:e the 60's and have lots of duets together. I'll suggest some more at a later date if you don't get to them first

John and Olivia have been friends from when they were young. John still calls his wife Jilly, the bride. What I find really funny is my husband went to school with Olivia, he went to the boys school and she went to their partnered girls school. They had a lot of shared school activities and my husband hated having to dance with any girl at school. He wasn’t into girls at 15, we were scary creatures back then. This July 1st we will be married 52 years. We got married when I was 17 and he was 21. I always looked older and he would never have asked me out had he known it was my 16th birthday. Seventeen back then was way older than 17 is now. I would have choked my children had they tried to get married that young. I was never 17. Don’t forget both John and Olivia are actors too. John played Jesus in Jesus Christ Superstar. When he does a concert he isn’t just a singer, he is a showman and the concert this is from is called The Main Event. They both went on a 3 month tour with Anthony Warlow who is a star in his own right. After he finished cancer treatment and all three are very good people. You can watch that concert just to see how funny they are together. Especially John and Anthony singing Granada. I never thought I would see John sing opera but he did. Olivia built a beautiful cancer centre or she calls it a wellness centre onto a big hospital in Melbourne the first time she got breast cancer. She has another one on her property for women who need it. She has stage 4 mastastasized breast cancer. I think it is her third time but she will never give up. Not without a fight. My youngest daughter sang this song to win a very big song contest in Melbourne. Until she announced whose song she was singing neither I nor the judges knew it was John’s. One judge wrote on her paper that she never liked John Farnham but after hearing that song she was going home to listen to more with an open mind. Those 3 in concert are funny, touching and amazing even if John has to wave his white flag at the end of Granada for Anthony.

Angie John & Jill are coming up to their 49th Wedding Anniversary in April

John Farnham originally recorded Please Don’t Ask Me in 1980 for his Uncovered album the song was written by Little River Band’s Graham Goble who also produced the album . After this Graham was writing songs with John’s vocals in mind not with Little River Band’s lead singer Glenn Shorrock in mind , which lead to Glenn Shorrock leaving LRB in 1982 and John brought in as lead vocalist .

Thanks for your reaction. Great performance.

Thank you for featuring two of Australia's national treasures.

If this video doesn't give you chills, you need to check your pulse.

Lovely reaction... I saw this concert (in the round) "The Main Event" with Olivia, John and Anthony Warlow twice back it's run and it was spectacular. The DVD (running 2 hours and 40 mins) and CD of it was number 1 on the Australian charts for some time and it went 5 x Platinum - it was the 4th most popular album of the year1998 and still held the 24th position for the following year. Olivia and John have also recorded a Christmas album together called "Friends For Christmas" that went 2 x Platinum and also and album and DVD for the concert tour they did together called "Two Strong Hearts" - the DVD for this actually went Platinum. Hugely successful Aussies who are revered in our country.

This is a list of my fave Olivia/Farnsy duets from this "Two Strong Hearts" tour, which you should def check out! There was a tour before this one, called The Main Event, which was with Anthony Warlow aswell as these 2, and those are great aswell. There are some really funny moments thrown in there! Especially with the 2 Grease songs and Physical! The song Dare To Dream is worth a watch just for the story before the song! The song was written for the 2000 Sydney Olympic games, they recorded it and because of John's roving eye for the ladies, he nearly killed poor Olivia! 🤣 But yeah, check them out! Check the whole concert out, along with The Main event! Top track list from the Two Strong Hearts concert: ♡ Suddenly ♡ Burn For You ♡ Dare To Dream ♡ Youre The One That I Want ♡ Summer Nights ♡ Physical ♡ Let Me Be There ♡ Hit The Road Jack/Fever ♡ Hearts On Fire ♡ Tenterfield Saddler

yeah we had to dance to "Lets Get Physical" so often in primary school

Yes he's always been loyal to his wife she doesn't seem but she's a dancer from the past , amazingly to everybody's knowledge he's never even strayed. That in itself should go into the world Guinness book of records lol

This is a beautiful song, and a beautiful reaction from you. Thank you, x Australia

You hang in there Angie, you’re doing just fine👍😁 Doing music reactions makes time fly💨💨and before you know it he’ll be back! Nice duet this one👍😁👋👋🤘🕊

Great reaction thankyou

Yay

my hubby and I are celebrating our 30th anniversary on Monday.

Angie. They also do The One That I Want from Grease from the same concert, The Main Event. Certainly worth watching.

Nice review Angie.

❤️

have you seen Xanadu? Olivia is amazing!

The voice you hear in this from John is exactly how his voice sounds now and hes Almost 72 years old I can be a Testmant to that because ive seen him in Concert His voice Sounds exactly like it does in this video and in others that we've heard him in He may Have Aged But that Voice Has NOT ...Fun fact Freddie Mercury Called John Farnham "ONE OF THE GREATEST MALE VOCALISTS IN THE WORLD BAR NONE"

😭 😭 😭

Olivia is on her 4th fight over cancer.

You’re very sweet

Look for Running Home with john

Where's your partner gone ,doesn't he always sit with you.
