For quite some time now, I've been meaning to record a cover of John Farnham's epic song "You're The Voice". In my opinion, it's one of Australia's unofficial national anthems!

During my holidays in January 2011, I started work on it. Unfortunately like most of my projects, I only found time to do little bits of it at a time, and it ended up taking me three months to complete. In April 2011 though, when after a few shots I got the final mix done, I was pretty pleased with the finished track. My plan was to stay pretty true to Farnsy's original version, but to make the overall sound more epic and huge. I kept the key and tempo the same, but added a whole lot of extra vocal harmonies, a massive timpani drum, distorted guitar, an extended guitar solo underneath the final choruses, among other bits and pieces. I just wanted to make everything "bigger".

In November 2010, I had the pleasure of watching Farnsy perform this song live at the COOPERS BREWERY with Sainty, Justy and Kaylia. It was his last song for the night, and we put our arms around each other's shoulders and belted it out at the top of our lungs with about ten thousand other people! What a moment!

This song goes out to Jamie Glenn Saint and the North crew. MAKE A NOISE AND MAKE IT CLEAR!

Walter Egan - Magnet & Steel

First time, first love
Oh what feeling is this
Electricity flows
With the very first kiss
Like a break in the clouds
And the first ray of sun
I can feel it inside
Something new has begun
And it`s taking control
Of my body and mind
It began when I heard I love you
For the very first time
For the very first time
This life, this love
All the sweetness I feel
So mysterious yet
So incredibly real
It`s an uncharted scene
It`s an unopened door
But you gotta reach out
And you gotta explore
Even though you`re not sure
Till the moment arrives
There he is and you know you`re in love
For the very first time
For the very first time
And baby when I met you
Every feeling I had was new
I don`t think there are words
To describe the sensation
It`s an uncharted scene
It`s an unopened door
But you gotta reach out
And you gotta explore
And when something happens
That words can`t define
Only then do you know you`re in love
For the very first time
For the very first time
For the very first time
