Voice

Two days ago I was asked to write about how a song spoke to me. I am compelled to add another, that just came to my notice.

It is a perfect foil to the whipped-up debate that is marring and confusing preparation for the referendum on the long-awaited Voice to Parliament. What better statement and comeback than the clear tones and message of John Farnham’s “The Voice” in a local indigenous language.

This performance lifts me from the doldrums of laying low yesterday.
