I am not saying that - John Farnham did, in his 1986 single You're The Voice. I found this incredible song in the audio CD, Greenpeace: Rainbow Warriors, that I borrowed from our local library. I can't get it out of my head ever since I heard it for the very first time. This song has got a nice lyric, great vocals, very cool chorus and superb music. I'm afraid I am going deaf playing it so loud; and of course there is fairly an equal chance of going dumb, as I am bellowing along and straining my vocal folds/cords.

Here's the song verbatim (Courtesy: Leoslyrics.com):

JOHN FARNHAM - YOU'RE THE VOICE

We have the chance to turn the pages over
We can write what we want to write
We gotta make ends meet before we get much older
We're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?

You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
Oh-wo-wo-wo, oh-wo-wo-wo (chorus)
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Oh-wo-wo-wo, oh-wo-wo-wo (chorus)

This time we know we call can stand together
With the power to be powerful
Believing we can make it better
We're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?
