Visiting Australia for the year. As soon as I introduce myself, anyone over 40yrs old INSTANTLY starts singing this song... I finally gave in a looked it up. Yowza!

My mum loved this song, we bonded alot over it, she passed away 8 months ago. This is now a very bitter sweet song

You all are over-thinking this song….. I love it.

The beginning of a HUGE CAREER, LARGER THAN AUSTRALIA OR ANY AUSTRALIAN COULD BELIEVE!!! We are the lucky one's thanks John Farnham!!!

Yes I remember this song when it came out and I had a pin up of Johnny Farnham (from the TV week) in my bed room. AND my nanna loved him and his voice, she bought the Sadie single and use to play it all the time. B-)

People will not give a second look at a cleaning lady, This guy has' Appreciating her work. Thumbs up.

Poor John, this song haunted him for years and was a barrier to being taken seriously in the 70s and 80s. Luckily he was able to break back through in 86 and people finally appreciated his enormous voice and talent.

You're the voice, John.

Remember this as a kid and thought John was so hot! He still kept his looks and his voice just got better with age. Admittedly I prob wouldn't go to one of his concerts as I'm into different music but I do admire his talent.

My name's Sadie and this song made my life 1000% better

Never heard this one before until my daughter played in on her phone. Was amazed to see it was by John Farnham, I remember him having some big hits over here in the UK in the mid 80s

What a Magnificent Talent...John is one of the Greatest Male Vocalists I have ever heard...There is Nothing he cannot sing....Just Amazing...Love Him :)

Loved hearing this song again, I never get tired of it

It was nice to hear this song again!

what a start to the greatest career of any australian musician.. 🇦🇺🇭🇲

Can you imagine... I was 14 when he sang this. Can you just imagine? Only lived a mile from the Studio. Life is but a dream...

Havent seen this Aussie since the 70's

HOLY SHIT...........WHAT A LITTLE GEM........

What a classic video. Whispering Jack and the Noodle Nodders.

I put my name into youtube and this is what I get. Serves me right.

This song never gets old!😍😀😁

this is one of the best aussie singers

Hahah!!! Watched this while cleaning at school today!!! Good Times

My Nan loved this song so much!!!! Not as much as I loved her and she loved me RIP Granet xxxxx

There is a song for every thing about anything. At least it's umm...pleasant

Am I the only one (well, I probably am) who's wondering HOW THE HECK DID THIS SWEET VOICE TURN INTO THE AWESOMELY EPIC HOLLERING he used in "You're the Voice"?!?!?

Sadie...you will always be an essential worker.

❤❤❤❤ I was about 8 when I first heard this song, back in 1970 (I know it came out earlier) I love this song and still do to this day. Johnny Farnham.....just a legend in his own lifetime. Watched him through all the years and all the changes... I just love him❤❤❤❤👍👍🇭🇲🇭🇲

We loved it. John, Joan and Keith Massam.

BRILLIANT sound quality! I'm sharing it.

Yes, and who didn't have a Sadie vacuum cleaner in the 70's? For those who don't know, it was a 5 gallon drum on wheels, motor in the top. It had a huge capacity, making it ideal for the home workshop. Marketed as the "GE Sadie", we all knew it was named after this song, although officially, nothing was ever said. We still have one.

A song of its time . when you consider songs like don't you know its magic , help , playing to win, you're the voice, touch of paradise , age of reason, that's freedom and burn for you, you can understand why john gets embarrassed when doing this song .

LOVE YOU John Farnham xxxxxxxx

John Farnham is the only artist local or foreign to have a number 1 album in Australia in five consecutive decades 1960s, 1970s, 1980s, 1990s and 2000s

Absolute legend. Brought a tear to my eye! Good onya John!! 🎉🎉❤

I remember this song when it was new!!!!

Brillant sound quality. I'm sharing it!

I remember whenever he came on to Hey Hey It's Saturday in Australia they would play this in the background. If he could have his time again this would be one song he would have knocked back, despite what he tells crowds at concerts.

We had to sing this song at school it just came to mind 20 years later 😅

the awesome moment when my mothers name is Sadie and she is a cleaning lady! that's how I found out about this. :)

I recall this song (although I'm not sure about this version) from around the late 60s. My late mother used to watch "The Golden Shot" and I'm sure this song was on that. Enough said.

always loved it

John Farnham at around age fiftyish did say in an interview (l don't remember when or where) that he hates this song.

he is great makes me happy.

I remember this and remember most of the words too. Johnny Farnham as he was then known was my dream boat he was dreamy! I liked him way more than Ronnie Burns. Ah the heart of a teenager, still like Johnny Farnham. Sadie the Cleaning Lady and then Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head.

this song is catchy :)

My buddy Paul from Pearth, sang this whenever we installed then had to vac the carpet. Crikey!

He does - because he ALWAYS gets asked for it, it was a novelty song forty years earlier, he remade himself as a pop/rock singer in the 1980s and did some really great songs, but always got asked for this oldie.

Great memories!

How great does Ding Dong look, what a saucy and fit dancer she is. Just love her..

Just found this single in a box in the closet backed with "In My Room" has a fun Hermit's vibe to it way down under.✨

OMG the dancers....

The 369th number one hit in Australia.

I love you John even though I’ve never seen you in person but we are related.❤

Cleaning ladies were hot in the 60's

LOL LOL LOL LOL i remember my mum playing this when i was a baby!!! :O :O :O

Sadie's the voice try and understand it, make a noise and make it clear. Ohhhhhhhhhhh Wahohhhhh!

sadie the cleaning ladie, she picks her nose and feeds it to the baby.

Yeah, music was soooo great back in the old days, wasn't it?

You all are over-thinking this song….. I love it. Elton john got married, get me?

Grew up with this Always good memories

I remmer this song my brother steve did pay at school he was johnny. Famer it was good that late 70 karren

@59771006 I agree. Not many were really that keen on the lyrics at the time from memory. It was a very catchy song though and from memories there were radio stations that wouldn't play it. Yet it went to no. 1. and yes it started off his career and he climbed.

Omg how beautiful is she❤

My friends always plays this song because my name is sadie

For any who would like to hear more of this man's amazing voice, and performing, here is my PLAYLIST of his music journey from the '60s until now - mostly listed in chronological order.:- @t

Love you “Yankee Wally”………….from Downunder. ❤️🇦🇺❤️👍😊

i hide my torturous depression through several layers of irony to drown out the pain

I cant stop listening to this its so good I love it so much I cant believe this song is about me

love it

This is music, not the crap they have today all done with computers >_>

If it wasn't for Sadie John wouldn't be where he is today Sadie kicked off his career

This is my housework anthem

Great. Music

We all learnt to do our own housewofk & cleanung!

Love this song . He was a handsome in this video clip . You tock jhon.

my name is sadie people constantly sing this to me when i tell them my name .... now i know wth it is

This is the first time me hearing this song, because I found this was John Farnhams first song so had to look it up and I had to double check that was his voice. I dont know if it was just me, but it didn't sound like John originally and took a while before it sunk in. Maybe it was just the Audio quality, but his voice sure sounded different later on in life.

My teacher puts this on when it's afternoon jobs 😀

I just played this to my dog her name is Sadie lol

John Farnham is Jillian Billman, a dancer he met when performing the stage musical "Charlie Girl" they have two sons, Robert Farnham and James Farnham.

Don’t know why people give him so much shit for this song, it slaps!!

And this a masterpiece

I know Sadie a cleaning lady too!!!!

Will you be loved by your fans because of Sadie the song ? it made you what you talking about Boy

cannot love this enough. xox

Age. He often commented that his voice wasn't as "clean" is it had been in his youth. He blamed cigarettes and red wine - probably right, too.

R.L. Stine sent me via Michael McKean. I feel truly inspired for the day.

I’m writing an action series and i’m going to use this song when this woman cleans up a bunch of dead bodies

My class is doing this for our song I'm like LOL

Boy he was so young.

I love thi fun in thi dancing.

for me its sadie the sjnging lady

Us as kids use to write the song like.... Sadie The cleaning lady, Picked her nose and fed it to the bady...when mother wasn't there she'd would throw it down the stairs...

That’s my song since I was a child , became a waitress & a very good one
