John Farnham performs his hit song 'That's Freedom' for the troops in Dili, East Timor during a Christmas concert featuring a host of Australian singers and entertainers. Other performers include Kylie Minogue, Doc Neeson and hosts Roy (John Doyle) and HG (Greig Pickhaver).

John is clearly comfortable during Roy and HG's opening banter before he breaks into song. Despite what must have been challenging circumstances, the production of the whole live performance is exceptional.
