John Farnham Finding The Voice Trailer Premieres and Soundtrack Album Is Also Coming

A trailer for the upcoming document ‘John Farnham: Finding The Voice’ by Poppy Stockell has premiered as well as a opening date for May 18, 2023.

‘John Farnham: Finding The Voice’ has been years in the making for Stockell. It features comments from Robbie Williams, Olivia Newton-John, Celine Dion, Richard Marx, Richard Thompson and Jimmy Barnes as well as the Farnham family, his wife Jill and sons Rob and James.

The movie talks about the recording of John’s signature song ‘You’re The Voice’ even though one of the writers Chris Thompson says he initially didn’t want John to record it. Another co-writer, Keith Reid of Procol Harem, died last month.

John hardly wrote any of the songs he recorded. ‘Chain Reaction’ was written by ex-Eurythmics Dave Stewart and his then wife ex-Bananarama’s Siobhan Fahey.

John only co-wrote to two songs on ‘Whispering Jack’, ‘Going Going Gone’ and ‘Let Me Out’. He co-wrote ‘In Days To Come’ for ‘Chain Reaction’ and ‘Seemed Like A Good Idea At The Time’ for ‘Then Again…’.

Today (11 April 2023) also marks the 50th wedding anniversary for John and John Farnham.

A soundtrack album will accompany the documentary. The soundtrack will be released on 19 May 2023.

Now in their late sixties and still touring world-wide, featuring the original line up of Dave Vanian, Captain Sensible, Rat Scabies and Paul Gray, they are the ones having the last laugh and have left their old rivals for dead, in certain respects, quite literally!
