Distinctly Farnham.......2001-04-14
No, John Farnham isn't the most well-known Aussie singer. That would be 70s-80s icon Olivia Newton-John. No one I've ever met in the U.S. has ever heard of Farnham. Newton-John is a household name here.
What Farnham does have is personality, charm, and a distinctive sound. It's not a bad voice, and Farnham uses it wisely and well both on ballads and catchy pop numbers. Even on recording, his irresistable love of performing shines through. More importantly, he is synonymous with Australian pop culture - as much a part of the country's flavor as kangaroos and g'days.
No, he doesn't have Warlow's voice or Newton-John's name recognition. But he recently performed a concert series with both of those international legends, and it was billed as Australia's three most beloved performers. That alone says all one needs to know about his place in Australia's heart.
Australia's best male vocalist by a mile.......2001-03-23
There wouldn't be one person in Australia who doesn't know of this artist or who doesn't have an opinion about his vocal qualities. John Farnham is a home grown product of the Australian music industry who has achieved tremendous success and popularity over some thirty years.
The problem with Farnham is that he gets better and better and it never ceases to amaze me how he can continue to come up with new material and develop his vocal qualities further. His performances on stage are supurb and his ability to involve the audiences ensures that concert goers receive value for money. He is simply brilliant and must be heard. His albums succeed with or without on air play by radio stations. Such is his talent and popularity that his admirers just keep buying his albums.
Farnham has the capacity to turn all his albums to top selling albums, such is the admiration and respect his has earned from his audiences in Australia and overseas. What ever your likes in music, one thing is certain, listening to John Farnham will send chivers down your spine and make you yearn for more. He is simply Brialliant.
