@Dead Well actually, Camie R.-S. is right just because John, moved to Australia in 1959 doesn't mean that he changed his national identity to Australian, because he's still British as well, he's been back to the UK a few times since he moved to Australia, to promote his smash hit You're the Voice on Top of the Pops in London which was a UK top 10 hit at the time, he performed Age of Reason on Terry Wogan's show in 1988, performed at the Prince's trust concert in Birmingham in 1989 and performed in London in 1988, 1991 and 1998. It's just sad that John only had one hit, I mean just think he could've been huge in the UK, I blame his manager for not giving him enough promotion in the UK, and I also blame the UK's self obsession with American music because America has got nothing to do with the UK.

While I agree but this track is based off 80's enthusiasm and naiveness because it was SO good back then and nothing more..It's all too easy to be open and caring to the "Age Of Reason" concept when times were good, now after some 31 years later it's the concept of go woke and now broke...A growing silent minority are now no longer interested in that concept anymore as the "Age Of Isolation" and Pro Exit U.N. are now creeping in.

@snap-n-shoot life is about, choices, family, country, area, environment, classes, lifestyle, quality or lack there of in life, your job on the planet, is to find away to make the difficult decisions better, no matter how good and bad about it is. This planet is about experiences, experiences equals knowledge, experience and knowledge equals wisdom. You understand all three, you share your wisdom by passing it on to others. Lessons are learned in sickness, just as much as a billionaire operating at the highest echelons of his prime performances. It's what you do in life that matters and how to learn and understand humility. The human soul can not die, death is not to be feared. To become the image of God, we must learn every which way to handle yourself through the quagmire of choices, and that is also to learn how to remember your divinity within a finite body. You are much more than your body and not all of you is in your body. You are a multi dimensional person having a limited life on earth. You came to the planet before your mindset went into a coma. What would be the point being here if you had all your knowledge of other lives you had right now. No point being here to learn on high-school earth, you'd already would have passed your grades. Don't fear anything if sometimes you can connect more consciously on a higher level than your humbled beginnings. Don't rush this life, because even the smallest of small details has it's moments of beauty. Not just the determination of a goal you are wanting to achieve. What's the point strolling into the forest if you forgot why you were there in the first place.

This is an anthem of the 90s made for the year 2024. John Farnham, You make me super proud to be Australian having had the experience of growing up in the care free 90s. What a world we had then; but what a world we still have now. This song is meant to bury the cynicism and apathy in exchange for reasoning and realisation. It's at this point in human history where we ALL need to truely embody the message of this song. Realise it's power and emotional uplift; cause we need inspiration to overcome toxicity of society and all it has become. All of John Farnhams music has lyrics deep with wisdom. God speed to you Mr Farnham. I've been honoured to meeting you on numerous occasions as a kid and got to shake your hand sitting next to you at a camp drafting championships 👌 Where else could you find the legend of Australian music than the environment he is most endemic too, eh?

Farnham really was a "one hit wonder" here in his birth country. Ask anyone in England from the 80s, and they'll name You're The Voice as the John Farnham song they know. And it's a great tune, I can't deny. Very rousing. Kind of an anthem, I suppose. But.......for me this one hits spots You're The Voice doesn't. I can't explain it.....Age Of Reason is just utterly and truly phenomenal. And I'm so so so glad I tuned into my local radio station (Invicta FM) that day, as a teen, in the late 80s when I did. Because, had I not, this song's abysmal showing in the UK charts means I would never ever have been introduced to one of my all time favourite tracks....

I was only a kid around 9-10 years old but loved this guy , he wasn’t a sleaze he always sang about powerful topics I had no idea what those songs meant until I grew older and listened again and realised this man was truly the best role model for Aussies

This song came out when I was being terrorized in 5th grade (whatever the equivalent is elsewhere), but since the past is dead and gone I hear with a clear and loving mind a clear and loving song. John Farnham has a great voice and a great heart. He's a huge influence both vocally and lyrically on me. Today's music doesn't care. There is no real love in it. People are not singing anymore they are making themselves into instant touch and go pop stars. That is not what music is all about. NO! Music is about what's in your heart and expressing what's in your heart. I hope to bring something new to the table and I'm geared up for it. The big part of that "Something new" is rewinding music back to when it was great music and not rubbish fit more for a garbage can than a record album! John Farnham is great. Thanks for inspiring me, John.

From the day that we were born we've been heading down a track Sometimes it's made for good sometimes for bad But if we look behind us there's a wave coming down Carrying us forward to a new age What about the world around us How can we fail to see And now that our fathers have gone And we've been left to carry on What about the age of reason So why can't we be still why can't we love each other Is kindness an ancient skill buried by our blindness And if we look behind us there's a wind blowing in To create the age of reason If we consider carefully the options put before us So much wisdom so much love so much waiting for us And if we look ahead there's the sun and the seasons Another day another age of reason

Con este álbum, descubrí a John Farnham, compré este disco de oferta en 1990, el cantante me sonaba de "Little River Band" y me gustaba mucho, cuando vi el Lp a la venta, pensé: - Creo que este cantante es el de la little river band, y efectivamente así era, la canción "Age of Reason" se convirtió en mi favorita me cautivó desde el minuto 1, hoy en día sigue siendo mi favorita, y este disco algo muy muy especial para mi, porque me dió la oportunidad de conocer a John más a fondo, hasta el punto que hoy en dia, tengo toda su discografía desde 1967 a hoy, todos sus dvd's y videos, todas las bandas sonoras en las que ha participado con su voz, en vinilo y en cd, y todos sus singles 45, desde 1967 hasta hoy. sin duda John Farnham, es mi auténtico número 1 por encima de otro cantantes. Y todos, todos todos los días, escucho sus canciones desde 1990 hasta hoy, en mi spotify es mi artista récord, con más de 9.800 minutos escuchando la música de John Farnham, durante 2023, estoy a la espera de recibir el informe de spotify de 2024, pero será más o menos lo mismo. Saludos a todos los aficionados a John Farnham, desde Barcelona, España.

Man, this Dude could SING. I loved his early days with Little River Band the most, but he still "had it" in the 80's. Well done, Australia!! Love, from Canada. I know he was born in England but I think of him as an Ozzie.

He had hits in Australia from the late 60 to late 70s. His time with LRB was actually the lull in his career until he broke through again with You're the Voice in 1986.

Out of the blue, just remembered The Voice and Age of Reason. One of my first albums from my music loving elder brother. Was listening to this at the age of 8 when it came out and decades later-it is still powerful and relevant. When music was music. Great and powerful message which spread to Southern Africa. So fortunate to listen to such

1988 BMG Australia Limited. I was ten years old when this single shook the world of music ... ... at a time when great composers and delicious melodies indicated to our hearts that art could be heard ... without the need to see,, but in our senses it drew various forms of sensations even more pleasant than sight.
