John Farnham performs 'You've Lost That Loving Feeling' on a 1979 episode of The Norman Gunston Show. However, he quickly loses his composure when Gunston (Garry McDonald) joins him on stage and turns John's serious solo into a comical duet.

This dramatic ballad about lost love, first recorded by the Righteous Brothers in 1964, turned out to be perfect material for Gunston, who knew no boundaries in public.

His intrusion on stage instantly changes the tone of John's performance and the production crew do well to keep up with the ensuing chaos as John tries to power through the song while stifling his laughter.
