@@MrSandalwood of course at 71 years old he doesn't quite have the same range but its not far away from what it used to be .Like I said, I saw him live december 2019 and he still sounds fantastic. I imagine he probably sounds a lot better than you ever have. I mean from you're comment you already sound like a wanker!
Love that Celine gives recognition to John Farnham....not many people can do this song justice but I love that she is a fan of John's and is still putting it out there. And also just reminds me how amazing Farhams vocals are.
Credit to who? Chris "The Voice" Thompson wrote it, and being "the voice", he, of course, sings it better than anyone else. What Farnham brought to the party was getting confused and getting all the notes wrong on "down the barrel of a gun", a mistake that propagated through many other covers, including Celine's. You need to hear Chris sing it. John Farnham is maybe the number 5 version. Maybe. Aside from getting crushed by Chris Thompson, he gets thoroughly stomped by Heart, Naturally 7, and a version Vivica recorded when she was 15.
You know ,she acknowledges JF. Then gives her interpretation. She has done this for over 12 months now and always mentions John. She loves the song and loves him. She is a class act. She has my respect and love. Long may she sing her version of this wonderful song. It's a tribute to an amazing vocalist from Australia. ( her words) Just enjoy it everyone.
I saw the video of them singing together in Melbourne. You could see how excited she was to perform it with John. And in Australia she didn't have to teach the crowd the melody.. :)
Yeah, how good would it be if everyone could outdo the original. The fact she couldn't match Johns version is a testament to how great he is. And does not diminish the fact that she is also a great singer. Think about it mate.
@@mickthefisherman1562 I don't have to think about it, Farnham is the consummate singer. Full stop end of story. I love Celine singing this song. But John is the voice.
I hope the Canadians felt the sheer power of this song that night. It truly is of those songs that you can hear just once and tell you’re listening to something exceptional.
I don’t think the audience would have heard all the words. It would have been more powerful for them if the words were displayed on the screen. It is a truely inspirational song.
Perfection? That would be Chris "the voice" Thompson. Farnham scatters wrong notes all over the place, including an appalling run of 9 consecutive wrong notes in "the barrel of a gun" which just sucks the life out of Chris's awesome song. Once you hear Chris sing it, you realize how Farnham cheated the world out of what the song could have been.
@@spinkscapes775Except you shouldn’t have to do what "you should do". There's a lot of gesturing, especially through "down the barrel of a gun" that people use to add emphasis where the song flounders because Farnham missed nine notes in a row. When it's sung the way Chris Thompson wrote it (preferably by Chris "the voice" Thompson himself) that line hits hard without you having to flail your arms around to signal "Here it is! This part's important!"
Its a good effort... Much love from an Aussie... I love Celine but its like the soul of Your the voice is missing... There is a fire to the song that makes something inside burn brighter then a star. Think of any situation where you have struggled and let yourself FEEL your spirit come alive. This is the peoples voice... Its OUR VOICE! Sing your heart and soul out.
The original tone was kind of low for Celine, that's why I think she doesn't sound so powerful, despite her incredible voice. Still I loved her recognition to John and of course the song that is an anthem of música.
Unfortunately, a lot of people sing it like Farnham. Chris "The Voice" Thompson wrote it, and being "the voice", he, of course, sings it better than anyone else.

@@josephwisniewski3673 Eek, just listened to them all, Chris Thompson is the only one who came close, but great as his voice was (and I'll admit, I didn't realise it was so good - I've only heard his speaking voice before), it's not better than John's live performances. The others are all horribly generic. So some 15 year old girl can sing in tune, well done to her, there's more to giving a great performance than that.
lyrics : We have the chance to turn the pages over We can write what we want to write We gotta make ends meet, before we get much older We're all someone's daughter We're all someone's son How long can we look at each other Down the barrel of a gun? You're the voice, try and understand it Make a noise and make it clear Oh-o-o-o, whoa-o-o-o We're not gonna sit in silence We're not gonna live with fear Oh-o-o-o, whoa-o-o-o This time, we know we all can stand together With the power to be powerful Believing we can make it better We're all someone's daughter We're all someone's son How long can we look at each other Down the barrel of a gun? You're the voice, try and understand it Make a noise and make it clear Oh-o-o-o, whoa-o-o-o We're not gonna sit in silence We're not gonna live with fear Oh-wo-wo-wo, whoa-o-o-o ooooh We're all someone's daughter We're all someone's son How long can we look at each other Down the barrel of a gun? You're the voice, try and understand it Make a noise and make it clear Oh-o-o-o, whoa-o-o-o We're not gonna sit in silence We're not gonna live with fear Oh-o-o-o, whoa-o-o-o (X3) We're not gonna sit in silence We're not gonna live with fear

I like how this song is rediscovered and realised it’s incredible beauty decades later. Was used inspirationally in the movie Hot Rod. It is indeed an anthem here in Australia.
I just watched Celine sing this with John when he was 69. She has always said she was his number one fan and she gave him so much respect. It was emotional and funny, like two fans meeting one of their favourite singers. I think they both forgot they are famous.
The original is great too from Johnny Farnham kind of our Aussie anthem but what makes you special Celine; I love that always represent, you get this song's meaning and then make it yours too spreading the message of it further... I hope one day I see you live xx
The devastating part is I can hear her voice breaking. This was before anyone knew she was having vocal issues. I love that she gave John the recognition he deserves with this amazing song. We love you Celine! Always. 💜
i love the way she enjoy the company of her fans, taking time for them and be part of her concert not just to finish her concert then go. i think its herkey for a successful career to stay grounded and always acknowledge those people who put her from where she is now.
The song has four people on the writing credits but was mainly written by a friend of mine, Chris Thompson, (who used to do studio vocal sessions for me in London and who was a lead vocalist along with me in the Alan Parsons Band back in the mid 1990s). Maggie Ryder another session singer who did studio vocal sessions for me in London also had writing input. I last saw Maggie in New York in 1995 after our final gig at the Beacon Theatre on the Alan Parsons Band's American tour that year. Chris also moved to New York from London shortly after. We actually did this song on that tour with Chris singing lead vocals.
I'd love to see Celine Dion and John Farnham do a duet of this. One of the best songs ever. Two amazing singers with awesome and truly powerful voices.
Celine did an interview with tracy grimshaw and jokingly said she would love to do a duet with John Farnham when she visits Australia. This comment started the wheels in motion and you can view on youtube Celine and Farnsey meeting and their duet at the Melbourne concert.
@Katrinagaming-en1os it wasn't Tracey Grimshaw that interviewed her, it was Lisa Wilkinson. The Project made it happen and recorded behind the scenes at the concert. Wonderful stuff.
She rocked in Miami too ! Was real close ! She is beautiful and amazing live with the voice of an angel , total class and such an incredible personality
As a Australian who has seen John Farnham in concert do this song many times, i can say very good try canada...though john ALWAYS HIRES A LOCAL WHO PLAYS BAGPIPES for the part where the flute was played. otherwise,im impressed. well done celine
Ce spectacle d'Ottawa était spécial parce qu'elle l'a fait bilingue. Plusieurs pensaient qu'il serait seulement en anglais parce que c'était à Ottawa, pourtant supposément ville bilingue. / This Ottawa show was special because she made it bilingual. Many thought it would only be in English because it was in Ottawa, a supposedly bilingual city.
Let’s acknowledge David Archuleta… he gave this song its second life on American Idol a long time ago, and then everyone was like what the hell was that….
Well for all the ass holes making all kinds of comments about this version is that and is this and all, just wanted to tell u that for a change, I never knew that song neither the singer until Céline started covering it during the Courage world tour.. So PLEASE see the positivity of things for once..

I don't care about Australian nationalists and the some being an australian anthem. Nationalism is an abomination. People simply should listen what this song says.
This really puts into perspective how special John Farnham is. We are such a lucky nation to have John Farnham as an Aussie, he came this 🤏 close to being a Brit.😱👍
This is a good rendition of the song but Celine had a cold that night so it wasn’t as good as when she performed it in Australia. If you want to hear a better cover of the song try Swedish singer Loreen and her cover recently from late 2021. It’s Amazing!
Ah well! She tried. Very, VERY disappointing - there is only one John Farnham. I wish she hadn't mangled the words. What happened to "down the barrel of a gun?
As an Australian, I adore this song. This song is an anthem, a powerful anthem that we will fight for to the bitter end. yes John is incredible and noone will ever top him in our minds. BUT, saying noone else can ever do this justice is rude and against the point of this song. it's meant to unify, not seperate. Sure, Celine sounds very different to John but who cares? The more people who hear this song, who actually LISTEN to the lyrics, the better. So please stop putting other people down for singing it.
