About this listen
At last, the unflinching and unforgettable memoir of music and life from the much-loved Australian legend. The Voice, in his own voice.
Growing up in London and Melbourne, music was always part of John Farnham's world. But the young John never dreamed of what was to come. Pop stardom in the 1960s. The release of Whispering Jack, the critically acclaimed and highest-selling Australian album of all time. A decades-long touring career. Twenty-one ARIA awards. Australian of the Year. The list of accolades and achievements is long - so, at first glance, the John Farnham story is one filled with remarkable highs.
It is, however, so much more than that. It is the story of the resilience John found as his stellar career stalled, record companies turned their backs, and he faced financial ruin. John has never shown how hard he fell and how difficult it was to stay true to himself in an industry that can be ruthless. It is the story of family, friendship and finding your voice.
Throughout a lifetime filled with the highest of highs and the lowest of lows, John has remained steadfast, never losing his unique musical talent, creative strength nor his powerful ability to make human connections through his music. After his devastating cancer diagnosis and far too many goodbyes, John is now telling his story, his way.
The Voice Inside is like sitting down with an old friend sharing stories that are both deeply personal and wildly entertaining. Written alongside award-winning filmmaker Poppy Stockell, this is a captivating and powerfully honest insight into the man whose music is the soundtrack to so many of our lives.

The sheer honesty
I wasn't sure what to expect but was absolutely hooked from the first few words from John.
What an amazing Man you are John Farnham. I loved every single bit of this book and stayed up all night to listen to it. The fact that you read it yourself was just so special. I was shocked at some of the things that happened to you in the earlier days of your career and I am sorry for it.
It was lovely to hear from your Jilly as well. A very strong person and obviously she has been incredibly supportive. I am glad you met someone like her. Wishing you everything good for your future health wise, you have conquered so much John, and you will to the same with this.
Absolutely loved your book and thank you for writing it.

The honesty and truth in his voice
Such an honest reflection on his life which gave full credit to his beloved wife and sons and Glenn Wheatley, always so supportive. A gift to his army of fans the world over.

The raw honesty of a true Aussie Legend!
A true Aussie icon and talented artist.
The roller coaster journey, of John Farnham’s life and music career, with his wife Jill joining along as the wonderful supporting strength that she is.
So inspiring in many ways, decent Australian folk!

Good on you John.
The moment I heard you were having a book tell your story, I could not wait to buy it. It was wonderful to hear both you and Jill and your life together face the trials and tribulations.
I did have the pleasure to meet you when you were Australian of the year and attended a luncheon in Perth, with my family and baby girl. You took her off me and held her while I went back to my table to get my camera.
I left my baby with John Farnham.
I wish you all the best and can not wait to see you go onwards and upwards. Hopefully to grace a stage again.
