  1. "You're the Voice" de John Farnham, una verdadera locura de canción 🎶

    Es la canción más famosa de John Farnham y uno de los mayores clásicos de la música australiana.
    Alcanzó el N.º 1 en Australia y fue un gran éxito en Europa

    Ganó el premio a Sencillo del Año en los ARIA Music Awards.

    Es famosa por su poderoso solo de gaita (bagpipes), un elemento muy poco común en una canción pop-rock.
    Se ha convertido en un himno de unidad, esperanza y participación ciudadana, utilizado en eventos deportivos y campañas solidarias.

  2. CW: Zionist genocide and torture state

    The cafe radio is playing Johnny Farnham.

    Not "the river to the sea" song.
    But still I'm reminded of the genocide and torture being done by the vile Zionist state against Palestinians.

  3. I'm not sure if this is a widely known Aussie music fact that I've somehow been clueless about all these years?

    You know the song "As the days go by" by Daryl Braithwaite?

    Do you know who the backing singer on that song is?

    Because I must have heard it hundreds of times over the years and yet somehow I didn't realise before I read it just now.

    It's John Farnham 🤯

    I didn't believe it, but I just listened closely. It sounds like Jack.

    I looked it up on Wikipedia, and sure enough, it's Farnzie: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/As_the_Days_Go_By

    How did I not know this?

    Did you?

  5. Oh man, just heard a new #AvrilLavigne song released this spring called "Young & Dumb" and it's a rather direct copy of the '80s "You're the Voice" by Australian #JohnFarnham.

  6. Steht nach langer Zeit mal wieder auf der Liste der zu covernden Lieder. Freue mich aufs Dudelsack-Solo, auch wenn ich halt nur das elektronische Imitat im Angebot habe: John Farnham - You're the Voice

  7. As a nominee for 'lamest dream ever', last night I dreamt that some friends & I played that game where you choose a category and you have to list as many items as possible within that category without repeating.

    And for whatever reason, in my dream the category was 'John Farnham songs' and I proceeded to rattle off four or five of them before abruptly waking up.

  8. I was surprised to learn that whilst the 1986 album "Whispering Jack", was wildly popular in Australia and my childhood, it wasn't known outside our sunburnt shores. Here's your chance to visit #Australia circa 1986 :-D youtube.com/watch?v=tF0gqm4uUN #JohnFarnham

  9. Okay, everyone drop what you're doing and take a look at this 👇 It's an isolated vocal track of John Farnham, circa around 1987, singing his cover of When The War Is Over. The big chorus is at 3:30 #music #Australia #Farnham #JohnFarnham #rock #AussieRock #vocals #vocalist #singing

  10. John Farnham is on stage to perform "You're the voice". He throws the kitchen sink at this performance: mullet, light show, bagpiper on the satellite stage. His song had taken two months to climb into the top twenty, and this performance helped it grow wings and turn into a massive hit.

    Not shown on stage: the effect to produce those massive drums. Allegedly, it comes from a Porsche door being slammed.

  11. @feather1952 @Godfrey642 @BlahBlah I only wish someone running the campaign would agree on backing it with a well known song, played to large audiences getting ready for their big sports games events across Australia, but seems like noone is interested in that, leaving the turn around to formal logic among a huge majority who are not engaged. We have seen huge 100,000 plus audiences sing along with #JohnFarnham's You're #theVoice try and understand it, millions connected. Could happen here too
