Introduction
Hey there! I’ve got to tell you about this incredible song by The Moody Blues called “The Voice.” It’s one of those tracks that feels like a warm embrace from an old friend, and I just have to share it with you.
Picture this: it’s the early ’80s, and music is going through some fascinating changes. Synthesizers are making their mark, but here come The Moody Blues, blending their signature symphonic rock sound with these new electronic textures. “The Voice” is the perfect example of this beautiful blend, and it’s from their 1981 album, *Long Distance Voyager*.
What really sets “The Voice” apart is its uplifting spirit. The song opens with a mesmerizing synth line that sweeps you off your feet, and then you’re greeted by Justin Hayward’s soothing vocals. He’s singing about guidance and intuition—almost like he’s encouraging you to listen to that inner voice we all have. It’s the kind of song that makes you feel like everything’s going to be alright, even when life gets a little overwhelming.
One of the things I love most about “The Voice” is its ability to evoke emotion. You know that feeling when you’re staring out the window during a long drive, lost in thought? This song is the perfect soundtrack for those moments. It’s contemplative yet comforting, and it somehow manages to inspire a sense of hope and adventure all at once.
Fun fact: when “The Voice” was released, it became a huge hit, especially in the United States where it reached the top 20 on the Billboard charts. It’s fascinating to think about how this track managed to capture the hearts of listeners back then, and it still does today.
So, next time you’re looking for a song that feels like a gentle nudge to trust yourself and keep moving forward, give “The Voice” a spin. It’s like a little reminder from the universe that you’re on the right path. Have you ever felt that way about a song? Let me know!

Lyrics
The voicethe moody blues(hayward)- as recorded on the album “long distance voyager”won’t you take me back to school?
i need to learn the golden rule.
won’t you lay it on the line?
i need to hear it just one more time.
oh, won’t you tell me again?
oh, can you feel it?
oh, won’t you tell me again tonight?
each and every heart it seems, is bounded by a world of dreams.
each and every rising sun, is greeted by a lonely one.
oh, won’t you tell me again?
oh, can you feel it?
oh, won’t you tell me again tonight?
cause out on the ocean of life my love.
there a so many storms we must rise above.
can you hear the spirit calling, as it’s carried across the waves?
you’re already falling it’s calling you back to face the music.
and the song that is coming through.
you’re already falling the one that it’s calling is you.
my a promise take a vow.
and trust your feelings it easy now.
understand the voice within.
and feel a change already beginning.
oh, won’t you tell me again?
oh, can you feel it?
oh, won’t you tell me again tonight?
tonight?
oh, won’t you tell me again?
oh, can you feel it?
oh, won’t you tell me again tonight?
and how many words have i got to say?
and how many times will it be this way?
with your arms around the future and your back up against the past.
you’re already falling it’s calling you on to face the music.
and the song that is coming through.
you’re already falling the one that it’s calling is you.
each and every heart it seems, is bounded by a world of dreams.
each and every rising sun, is greeted by, a lonely, lonely one.
won’t you tell me again?
oh, can you feel it?
oh, won’t you tell me again tonight?
