Kylie Minogue & John Farnham | Live in Melbourne | Reaction 

sooner or later you realise Farnham has chemistry with everybody, from the king to the boot polisher.. because hes just good person, and a star

Only one love for John , his wife Jill And that's the other thing we love about John , the loyalty to his wife and family Never been any scandals during his career , Just a beautiful soul 🙏

I love that John, who is obviously known for his huge voice, did the “little bit softer now” part, and Kylie, who is known for her delicate tone, did the “little bit louder” part. Making light of their differences rather than trying to compete with each other is so Australian. They make me proud!

I still think 'Where the wild roses grow" with Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds was Kylie's best duet. It is haunting.

Kylie see’s John as a mentor plus John been devoted husband and family man since the early 70’s . He is one Australian rock / pop singer that has been scandal free . John Farnham is so professional has chemistry with anybody he sings with . The first song I Should Be So Lucky is stripped back rearranged version of second Australian first UK single that was a number 1 hit in both countries . This was recorded in the late 90’s for Melbourne’s Crown Casino opening . Around the same time Kylie borrowed the Farnham Band for a national tour , The Intimate & Live Tour that got great reviews. Plus this is Kylie a few years before her worldwide smash hit Can’t Get You Out Of My Head. The second song Shout yes a Isley Brothers classic but in Australia it was massive hit in the late 50’s for Australian rock n roll pioneer the late Johnny O’Keefe , the song after this at this concert was John Farnham paying tribute to Johnny O’Keefe .

They used to call her the singing budgie (bird), this is a nice version of the original very pop song (First song). ❤. I’m a Kylie fan and have never seen this, thank you. I think John got married in 1973 and Kylie was born 1968 so never dated hehe . 😂

Shout was a huge hit for Australia's first 'king of rock & roll', Johnny O'Keefe. It has special significance for Australian singers. My mother interviewed JOK in the 60s when she was a young journalist. She interviewed Helen Reddy (I Am Woman) before she made it in the US, too 😊 Helen was actually thinking of quitting showbiz at the time because she was frustrated by the local Australian scene. Imagine a world without I Am Woman!

One thing I admire about John Farnham is that he allows his fellow performers their spot, their chance to show out.

That was a heavily reworked version of I Should be so Lucky! Kylie is the pop princess here in Oz. Her range may not be incredible but her tone is quite unique and very recognisable. I’ve never understood why she didn’t break into the US market. She had the songs, the dance moves and she is so beautiful…I guess it’s up to Americans to seek her out. She’s worth the effort. John also doing a great job of not trying to outdo his guest here. A proper professional.

No one in Australia believed she could sing , until she started singing . Wonderful !!

“Shout!” Has an iconic status in Australian rock, with Johnny O’Keefe’s version - had whole pavilion’s full of people nearly rioting to it. Huge shock for staid Australia at the time

Johnny O'Keefe had a big hit in Australia with Shout as well. He was very popular in the 60's and 70's. My Grandparents are buried about 35 steps away from J O'K and every year on his passing there are huge floral tributes in the shape of guitars etc. Col Joye is usually the one who sends the guitar.

John has a connection with most women. He loves his wife and the ladies know that although he messes about they are safe with him and don't have to worry about inappropriate behaviour from him. Kylie is also very down to earth as are most Aussie performers

Never heard Kylie sing I should be so lucky like that before it's usually her up-tempo pop version. Very good.

They’re both from Melbourne and are friends. No they never dated since Johns been married for a long time and Kylie is probably 20 years younger than him, just friends. Loved this! ❤

Loved that.. Kylie has done so well especially as she fought cancer so young..and of course John is a legend.

Kylie's the QUEEN 👑💯🎤

Kylie Minogue and John, along with the Living End and Doc Neeson, performed for the troops in East Timor. That was a wonderful performance.

Kylie is very famous all over the world. You must know her.

"Shout" was also famous in Australia because of the Johnny O'Keefe version. Check it out.

That song shout was sung and released by johny okeefe back in the late 1957 also sang she's my baby and also the wild one check them out if you like he was pretty big and popular in the late 50's and 60's in Australia buddy😊😊🦘🇭🇲👍

I really enjoyed this. Her distinctive tone really stands out in this, even with John Farnham there. You can tell that all the ad libs and runs are not really her thing, but she adapted quite well, and did her thing. John is always just a natural phenomenon. Love him.

Australians were introduced to Shout by one of our original rockers, Johnnie O'Keefe The slowed version of Lucky gives such a different feel to the original teeny bopper version

Thank you for your awesome reaction and appreciation Nick of two of our phenomenal Aussie legends. Great way to start my day. ❤👍🎶🎵🥰

Music aside. That’s how you wear a red dress.

Doesn't matter who John teams up with there's always great chemistry there. Kylie's quite a showgirl herself.😊

This song Shout has been around a long time. In Australia, it was Johnny O'Keeffe that made it famous here. That was a re-work on some of kylie's hits in a different style than the originals, Very nicely done. I believe this was the opening of a casino, and John went back-stage to bring Ray Charles on stage, then they worked well together.

kylie vs j far daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaamn

She is great on live stage, when she ramps it up, she is very professional and super cute! 👍 No dating, John was grabbed early and is a real family man! 🤗 Robbie Williams and Kylie "Kids" is fun! 😃

Shutup...shutup...shutup...shutup....gotta love John's take !

Yet again ladies and gents This is undeniable proof John can sing any style any genre of music And his voice blends and fits into any genre perfectly He has one of those voices thats Limitless Ive seen John sing RnB And My Goodness He sounded absolutely Spectacular And then ive seen him Sing country, and Blues, and Soul, and Opera, and Rock etc And Nothing Changed His voice Was still the same despite him Singing multiple genres over his 56 Year Career Nothing has Changed that Voice we know and Love AGE hasnt Effected His voice Illness Hasnt effected it And I hope to God we hear him sing again ....What an amazing Video to showcase yet again Johns Amazing Talent/Voice

When very young, Kylie was an actress on Aussie soap TV. We've seen that John is a natural actor (JC Superstar), so they perform. There's close to 20 years difference in age, so she was a toddler of about 4 when John married.

Never heard this before. Really enjoyed that. Good to see another side of Kylie away from the usual tweeny pop stuff she does. And John, well, he's just the most versatile talented legend we have.

This an Australian classic, originally performed by Johnny O'Keefe back in the late 50's; he was promoted in the U.S. as the Boomerang Kid. If you get the chance, check him out. Classic Australian Rock

I live with the shame that I don't remember ever seeing this, I mean, wth! 😲👌👌👌.

What a way to start a Friday morning! Nice one Nick ❤

Aussies have that connection with there performance's

That’s great, I’ve never seen this before , nice reaction mate 🤘🏼

I feel John see Kylie as a little sister. John married his current wife when Kylie was only 5yrs old, so no they never dated.

Both from Melbourne too.

This is a different arrangement of Kylie's hit, "I Should Be So Lucky" which was a 90s dance pop hit. This is a great version.

Really enjoyed this

Kyle & John never dated .. The Aussie muso scene is very close knit .. Everyone knows everyone & respects the collaborations in the Aussie music platform .. good mates.. cobbers .. Kyle did date Michael Hutchinson ( INXS ) Thank you for sharing this 😊

Two Australian singers together. Kylie was a big hits since the 80s and had many pop song chart hits. Also was a star in a Australian TV soap called Neighbours. Her and John were great in this video. John great as always. Great reaction thank you. UK JF fan 🇬🇧 🇬🇧

I love John, I love Kylie, I love ALL your reactions…but most importantly I love your shirt! 👌🏽

John is a talented professional, and a great human being, he is clever when he creates this chemistry with those he collaborates with, people with whom he has great respect for, but his 💖 is always with his wife and family.

Youve got a great voice Nick! I do hope youre doing o.k. Theres almost 20 years between these two, and no theyve never dated...Johns a family man.

Disney princess voice Kylie has i reckon

Kylie is young enough to be his daughter and he is married and has been for a few decades.

Love the shirt.

FYI, Kylie has sold over 80 million albums, official.

Just admit that John Farnham is the best vocalist ever 😏👌🏻

Kylie is an entertainer and a really good one it’s the whole package and she is compelling draws you in. There is nothing wrong with that there are a lot of singers that don’t have her presence and performance skills. I have always loved watching her.

Proof that arrangement is so important in song writing.

Love the bulk uploads!

Lol no they never dated as kylie is alot younger than John (19yrs younger to be exact, kylie was born in 1968) & besides John has been married to his wife Jill for almost 50yrs.. so kylie was only 4 or 5 when he got married..

If you must have transparent video coul you please move it so it isn’t over your blinds.

🥰Kylie is as big as Madonna!🤔But mostly in 🇦🇺Australia and England.🫶She always puts on 👍very elaborate shows,🙏when she’s touring.🫶She has had lots of hits 👍over many years.👧She had a fling 💗with INXS lead singer!💕But like Olivia Newton John,🤞John is just a true friend.🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶🫶

Shout is a Jonny O Keefe song goes back to the 1950s. J OK was Oz answer to Elvis and an ultimately tragic figure.

For us Aussies, Shout is a Johnny O'Keefe song...

Only ever been Jill for John

Had to giggle at the thought of John ever dating Kylie. He's only ever been a one woman man ever since he met his Wife Jill when he was in his early 20's. Kylie would only have been about 4 or 5 at that time. John has chemistry and love for everyone he performs with. A true professional

Kylie is very much a lounge sultry singing style.

Note, he is keeping the mic down so he doesn't blow it up.

I love kylie and john..ive watched all her concerts on you tube shes so much better then madonna i saw madonna live

I think you should watch johnny okeefe

Kylie is more like a Madonna than Barbara Streisand

Je viens de trouver une autre version que vous pourriez aimer mieux, Kylie Minogue & John Farnham (Shout Rehearsal at Tour of Duty, East Timor 1999) on RU-vid. Beaucoup plus divertissant, même si la qualité n’est pas excellente.

Kylie looks like dannii here

Not on this song because it’s one that he had to make the other the centre of attention but let’s face it, he destroys so many but he is the most humble in the industry 👍🏻

Who hasn"t Farnham sung with!?

Johnny is old enough to be Kylie’s father seriously I can’t believe you said that about them dating dude and I don’t think John’s wife would appreciate it either.

OMG the dating comment. No way

Same league as Jane McDonald. Our Lulu 😂

In Australia the only person that made the song Shout famous was Johnny O’Keefe. Kylie tried out to be a regular singer on Young Talent Time and only her little sister Danni was good enough. Kylie later started acting in one of soaps called Neighbours. Well some would call it acting. England is in love with both of our soaps. So Kylie and Jason Donavan quickly moved there while they were really popular. Jason got into either drugs or alcohol and it took him a long time to come back but he did. Kylie became a very famous singer over there but mostly her videos were based on wearing little and how she sang. Her voice is pretty but not strong. We call her the singing Budgie because she is tiny. That sounds like I don’t like her and I do. Now she is learning to be who she is and that is very much like this song. I think she tried hard to be her sister and missed her own talents. I don’t know what happened to Danni but I don’t read magazines. I know there is a picture of Danni in my hair salon showing a new hair product. You should watch John and Ray Charles. Ray was getting old and John loves him as much as I always have. John took such great care of him on stage. Ray changed what they rehearsed without telling John but John adapts very fast. John also made sure the audience knew how special Ray Charles was. He was my first crush because my Nana had his music. I had never seen a picture of him, didn’t know what colour he was but that would not have changed anything. I was raised to know we are all the same. I raised children that, looked like him and my baby is Korean/ Australian. It was his voice and the kindness I felt in him. I could always feel how someone was by listening to them. I loved and respected Ray Charles forever. When I finally saw him on TV in my early teens I loved him all over again. I told my parents I was going to marry that man. I know John and I could see he was trying to keep Ray on track but so gently and he just fitted in anywhere he could. Then I think John asked for a bloody chair because bending over that little piano or organ to sing was too hard. If you know what to look for you can see what John did to help in that concert. There were a lot of famous people on that stage besides Kylie. I think Anthony Warlow was there but the stage basically belong to John and Ray Charles. Everyone gets surprised that Celine Dion came here to sing and she called John on stage. I think he was 70, maybe 69 but he was emotional that she was singing his hit song and she told him she had been his number one fan for years. Same when Richard Marx said John had the best voice of anyone alive today anywhere. Then a couple of years later he walked on stage and played the piano for John. I love Richard Marx but John was his usual self. He never understood how famous people knew him and loved him. We all did and he is still loved. Thank you. No, they didn’t date. Kylie arrived after John married Jilly, the bride. John has chemistry with everyone. He had to tone his voice down for Kylie singing Shout.

Kylie is much too young for there to have ever been anything between them. Kylie and John were both crom Melbourne and would have been at some of the same functions when she was a child actress... lile Logie Awards, Carols By Candelight etc, but John has been a solid family man all his lofe and as far as I know there has never been any scandal about him. He knocked back a lucrative international career because of his devotion to hiswith and family. He is a man of honour.

Can barely see the video.

Well Kylie Minogue's vocals probably did not bring a lot to the party but atleast she would lool good naked right?

Understatement of the century Kylie sure isn't in the same class as Barbara Streisand. While Kylie has been successful in pop, she is not in the same league vocally as Australia's top singers, her sister Danni is actually a better singer.

I'm not a fan of Kylie at all (don't get me started!); but John nailed his performance, as always. He can make any song, any genre, magical & fun & a joy to listen to. 😊

Kylie’s isn’t my favourite she sounds like she has a blocked nose but I love John so I watched

The first sing she sings a bit boring but the more tecent stuff heaos better

John sounded great. Kylie sounded absolutely mediocre. I feel as though most singers I hear have a better voice than Kylie 😂
