Tina Arena | Chains | World Music Awards 1996 | Reaction 

Brother you can't imagine how much you are uplifting our souls in Australia reacting to all our wonderful, underrated, artists. We need it, more than ever.

Tina is one of Australia's greatest exports. Can't believe that audience sat there like stunned mullets.

90’s singers didn’t need no dancers or distraction. They just stand there and sing. So much talent! True vocalists

Massive love to Tina Arena for this performance. She was totally alone on that stage and to rock out the way she did in front of that audience of global stars is nothing short of heroic! 🔥❤️

I'm a black female from the US and I love Tina Arena and this is one of my jams. Tina is a great singer with power and finesse and less not forget ...soul...I love, love, love this song❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Love this song. Sorrento Moon is another good one of hers.

Australian here. This was my battle go-to song in 1996. Saturday nights, Hairbrush microphone-check, stilettos , make up, Chardonnay, going out with the girlfriends. It never ages. So good.

You have to love how she stuck it up the whole international music industry gatekeepers with one song! Yes, of course she’s Australian! With some feisty Italian - Sicilian - ancestry 😂

I’m loving all the aussies your reacting too. We have a lot of very talented artists in our country 👏👏

I remember when she was a child on “Young Talent Time”, she had a powerful voice back then and it’s just gotten better with time. Great reaction and request.

i think those stiffs in the crowd were left breathless, she knocked them out of the park, and knew they were not worthy..... she slayed them

She is one of Australia's highest-selling artists and has sold over 10 million records worldwide. Arena is an artist with the vocal range of a soprano and is multilingual: she sings live and records in English, Italian, French and Spanish.

The video with her, the veronicas and Jess Mauboy… I swear her voice is better now than back then. She’s amazing

I’m loving all the Aussie artists, they’re so underrated 🖤🖤🖤

I never thought how difficult it must be to perform to an audience like this that are all seated, no vibe, nothing when the artist themselves have to hype themselves up and create a vibe on stage. Crazy.

She had a huge career in France. She's amazing.

You have a lot of Aussie subscribers ❤️

Dude! Watching your videos makes me feel so damn proud to be an Aussie. Love that you appreciate some of our most loved and respected artists 😘🙏❤️🐨🦘

Shania sitting there looking jealous AF. LOL Meanwhile Celine is there appreciating the immense talent she's seeing on the stage.

Your love and appreciation of Aussie musicians and singers is amazing and I love your reactions. Tina is one of the best in the world! Xxxx

You lifted me out of my depression today. God bless

This is the version I watched also and I couldn’t believe how motionless the audience was! She nailed it! 🙌🏽

Check out both "Wasn't it Good" and "Burn"...such a great vocalist and songwriter

One of my all time favourite vocalists. Sorrento Moon, Burn, Wasn't It Good is worth a listen.

She has incredible vocals

I wondered when you'd get around to our Tina. As soon as I opened the page, I got a smile on my dial, knowing you were in for a treat. Tina is the female equivalent of John Farnham. The entire album (Don't Ask - mid-90s) had Chains (written by Tina, along with some friends), and a plethora of other hits making the whole album is well worth a listen.

I love Tina Arena. Has a very unique voice. You see 90s singers are one of the best in the music industry.

I remember this being a big deal at the time because most performances like this were mimed but she did it live

Tina Arena’s live duet with Donna Summer of ‘No more tears (Enough is enough)’ will give you tingles in all your sensitive bits.

Tina also has a great following in France, she has released a number of albums with her singing in french. She lived o'there for a number of years. I believe she has now returned to live in Australia

Omgggg I am so glad you reacted to Tina Arena! She is a legendary Australian singer, in the same way John Fareham is, very respected and loved. Wow!!!!!

This is my favourite song of Tina Arena's 💖 My next favourite is Sorrento Moon 😊 Celine is sitting there thinking "I could sing that" lol

First time I took notice of Tina Arena was her singing in the Andrew Lloyd Webber 50th Birthday celebrations. She sung Whistle Down the Wind - what a pair of pipes!! Even my teenage sons appreciated her performance. She is fantastic!! Another fabulous Australian singer. Love her cover of Burt Bacharach song The Look if Love 😎😎.

She's one of my favourite Aussie singers, have all her albums. Saw her live a few years ago, was amazing, she's a true performer, been doing it since she was a kid on TV.

Tina is ours, Australian. I have watched her sing every week from when she was a child. She is a gift. I also love Sorrento Moon which was one of her first songs I think. You always knew she would make it. Thank you. 🦋

Tina's album Don't Ask is fantastic (released 1994).

My all-time favourite Aussie female singer introduced to the Australian audiences at the ripe old age of around six she captured our hearts and has never not given her whole heart and talent since , she is down to earth and is a true representative of a no bullshit Aussie woman , you can only improve your musical experience dy listening to more of this truly world-class singer,

Congrats. You've discovered another Aussie gem. This lady is a terrific singer and this song is my favourite of hers. Such a rich voice. And a looker too. (Sorry, I didn't realize that the last sentence was out loud.)

You clearly appreciate great singers. May I suggest Vika and Linda Bull (aka the Bull sisters)? I promise your mind will be blown...

Watching you get excited at the beginning, and just waiting...waiting for her to belt one out for you. :D :D

Thw whole album "Don't Ask" that this is from, is really good.

I have watched videos from a fair number of music reaction channels, and yours is probably my favorite of them all. It's an added bonus listening to your commentary when it is also coming from a singer themself. I find it interesting. Watching you discover for the first time all these amazing Australian music artists definitely evokes some Aussie pride within me. When I saw the thumbnail of Tina performing "Chains", I immediately clinked on it because it was one that I had hoped you would do a reaction video to. Thank you from a recent subscriber.

I LOVE Tina Arena! One of the best singers in the world! Seeing her live is unreal!

I mean... Olivia, Tina ,Marcia Hines, and Vanessa are the best vocalists from here by far but there's lots of others; and yes, she's Australian.

She started singing very young, as well as singing she is a song writer, and producer, she also speaks a few languages, another amazing Aussie

Oh I remember when this came out. I was living my best life at 16 yrs old absolutely loving this album 💜

Yes queen TINA!! Our Australian🇦🇺 icon, we love you ❤ The audience were shook coz she killed it! Aussie aussie aussie...Oi Oi Oi ✊🏼

How can you never have heard of the song Chains? I been loving this song since the 1990's.....Tina Arena is one of the GREATS of the world.....

Love this. Yes, Tina is Australian and I was fortunate to meet her once…awesome voice.

I watched her grow up watching Young Talent Time she was 8-9 years old when she started to Perform in Australia. She was always a great little performer on that show. Small performer with a big voice

I love HEAVEN HELP MY HEART.She is 👌

All the great ones were vibing to her performance, but no one saw that powerhouse coming, they were sitting there like not knowing what hit them lol. I enjoyed your reaction lol, Tina is amazing and this song is 100% a 90's classic.

Tina can sing any genre!

Tina Arena another Australian iconic singer, I like her covering Show Me Heaven.

I get goosebumps every time she turns up that magnificent voice. She is just so very very good.

Tina was on a talent show on Tv for a long time. She was 9 when she started in 1975. It was based on kids with great voices. Some became stars like Tina.

Yay, thank you for reacting to Tina, you have me hooked on your reactions to our Aussie singers and look out for your videos... 🇦🇺❤️🙏

To much before her time, soooo underrated. Her voice was unbelievable 💙

Her and Vanessa prob Australia's 2 finest female artists ever.

Love the this she’s absolutely beautiful!

I was hoping someone had pointed you towards Tina. This is an amazing song and she is a brilliant vocalist.

Tina has an amazing voice and stage presence. Can’t get over that audience tho. Do they not have any blood running they their veins. This is a great song. Go Tina.

Loving our Aussie talent. Tina has sooooo many songs. Just watched John Farnham sing amazing Grace live.

My goodness I LOVE this girl, ever since I saw her on Young Talent Time, showing my age, haha, she’s been my favourite singer of ALL time ❤️

She's tiny, but mighty! Love her to bits!❤❤ from another Aussie

Oh memories, I played that song, well the whole CD every day, gee, about 20 years ago, doing the housework lol, so much easier cleaning my home to the best and songs from Tina’s CD. I think *Sorrento Moon* was on that CD too. I Still have it, must play whole CD again - very loud - Brilliant album 👍

Your loving my fellow Aussies. I freaking love watching you react. It’s always awesome watching some passionate about their thing and even better that your loving the Singers that Australia produces.

Wonderful reaction. Tina was a child star I believe. Love her song Sorrento Moon. I also love Wendy Matthews, the day you went away. Another great Australian singer. Really loving the music.

Another great Aussie. Thanks for showcasing our great talents.

Tina is brilliant!

Yes, Tina Arena is one of Australia's gems, she used to perform on an Australian talent show, Young Talent Time that aired every Saturday night for a period of 18 years. Tina basically grew up in our living rooms for the majority of her childhood. One of my favourite performers growing up.

Tina’s version of Boys In Town by The Divynls at the Fire Fight concert was the best thing I’ve ever heard in my life!!!

Been a fan of Tina since the 90s such an outstanding singer ❤❤

This song lives rent free in my head all day everyday. I love it

Best live performance. Ever.

I saw Tina as a support act in an outdoor concert once and she blew us away - what a talent!!

I saw her live in may this year. She’s unbelievable, still. Definitely watch her and Anthony callea sing the prayer.

Wow I just found you for the first time and that singer is from my home town in Melbourne Australia we grew up with her on TV from the late 70's

I grew up watching Tina on a show called Young Talent Time.

I loved this song back in the day. Never did hear enough of her.

Omg your reaction makes me laugh so much 😂😂thank you. I’ve watched this video a squillion times love it! This is like a John Farnham discovery you have just opened a can of worms ! Tina is Australians version of Celine. But Tina is like John , the live performances are always sooooo much better. You cannot appreciate her until you have seen her live . I’ve been lucky to see her 11 times live I’m a little addicted . She also sings in French which I sing along to along with my daughter . We have no idea what we are singing but it sounds amazing 😆

I get goosebumps when I listen to this song! Thanks for your reaction!!😮

Tina performed every Saturday night in AUSTRALIA we met her when she was 6 years old. We loved her. The show was called "Young Talent Time"

This is great, but the live version at the Aria’s is better. She really lets it all out and you can hear the anger in her voice.

Us Aussies have had Tina singer since she was a young girl of about 8 on the tv, awesome singer and great to see live

I get gooseberry every time I hear this song!

Those of us who are old enough to remember have been in Love with Tina Arena since she was a 9 year old contestant on Young Talent Time in the late 70s She's a prolific talent and has even been Knighted in France.... Presented the award by then French President, Nicolas Sarkozy.

Tina has a lot of great songs she is one of my favorite female singers

man she is such a QUEEN. i saw here earlier this year live in sydney and after all these decades her voice is still a POWERHOUSE. fab reaction video man, thank u :)

Tina is my IDOL. I’ve loved her since YTT. I loved this video!

One of my favourite Australian artists we’ve grown up watching her

Yes this is my favourite performance of hers ever. One of Australia’s greatest ever female vocalists.

such a great song!

Tina has been singing for 50 yrs. I grew up watching her on young talent time. Danny Minogue ended up taking Tinas place. When Tina sung someone left the cake out in the rain. That gave you goose bumps

Hey Big Man - just checked out your review of Matt Corby's version of this song. Tina's still knocking it out of the park.

Loving your Australian music reactions. Thank you for helping this home sick Aussie in the US get through this day.

Another of our best talents one best ever yes l Australian & proud to say it.

BROTHA, THIS IS ONE OF OUR BEST AUSTRALIAN SINGERS! SHE WAS AN ORIGINAL SINGER FROM A FAMOUS MUSIC TV SHOW HERE IN AUSTRALIA SINCE SHE WAS A TEEN, IT WAS CALLED "YOUNG TALENT TIME" HOSTED BY JOHNNY YOUNG!! WHICH WERE A GROUP OF YOUNG TEENAGE SINGERS, WHICH INCLUDED DANNII MINOGUE (KYLIE MINOGUE'S SISTER)!! AND IT LATER INCLUDED KYLIE MINOGUE AS GUEST SINGERS, SINGING WITH HER YOUNGER SISTER DANNII.. BUT OUT OF ALL THE SINGERS, TINA ARENA ABSOLUTELY HAD THE MOST SOULFUL AND STRONGEST VOICE!! TINA ARENA "CHAINS" HIT THE TOP 5 ON THE "ARIA AWARDS". SHE WAS ALSO VOTED "AUSTRALIAS GREATEST FENALE SINGER OF ALL TIME"... CHAINS IS ABSOLUTELY ONE OF THE BEST SONGS OUT THERE, LISTEN TO HER ALBUM "SORRENTO MOON".. AWESOME ALBUM!! HER PARENTS ARE FROM ITALY.. BUT THERE IS ALSO A BEACH TOWN CALLED SORRENTO, IN THE STATE OF VICTORIA AUSTRALIA, WHERE SHE GREW.. ❤

God bless you. Australia has manyn amazingly talented world class singers and entertainers. You are showing them to the World. Brother you is de best. Cheers Howard

I was in the Ansett flight lounge MANY years ago and Tina was as well, enjoying the buffet. To say the lady is on the smaller side is an understatement - she is tiny and petite .. and absolutley gorgeous. Always had a crush on Tina Arena - GREAT performer and vocalist.
