We have the chance to turn the pages over
We can write what we want to write
We gotta make ends meet, before we get much older
We're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?
You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
Oh, whoa
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Oh, whoa
This time, we know we all can stand together
With the power to be powerful
Believing we can make it better
Ooh, we're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?
You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
Oh, whoa
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Oh, whoa
Ooh, we're all someone's daughter
We're all someone's son
How long can we look at each other
Down the barrel of a gun?
You're the voice, try and understand it
Make the noise and make it clear
Oh, whoa
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Oh, whoa
You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
Oh, whoa
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Oh, whoa
You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
Oh, whoa
We're not gonna sit in silence (we're not gonna sit in silence)
We're not gonna live with fear (we're not gonna live with fear)
Oh, whoa
You're the voice, try and understand it
Make a noise and make it clear
Oh, whoa
We're not gonna sit in silence
We're not gonna live with fear
Oh, whoa

Please make an entire album of similar style songs to this! Literally 80s fist pumping anthems.

Tommy, Tommy, Tommy.... you absolutely have permission to play with Australia's national anthem! What an amazing recording! Now on high rotation here!

[fransodutoit]

I don't care what anyone has to say, this young man has the best voice and vocals in the world 🌎💯

Greetings from Russia. I've been watching your covers for 6 hours non-stop. I can't stop. I'm in a trance!!! Tommy, sing some more. You will memorize many songs better than the original. Today I trained to your music, it was so exciting. Your voice is like a battery!!!! You are

[Cyannah]

OMG! ❤ As an Aussie who is a massive JF fan and who hates covers of his songs, I have to say you just killed it! ❤ You are the only singer I’ve heard in the last 35+ years who has had the guts and the vocal power to do the song justice! Your vocal ability, instrumental ability, production ability is beyond phenomenal!!! Your take on our unofficial Aussie anthem hits my heart just as much as John’s does and that is saying something!! Thank you for respecting the song and making it more awesome than it already was. ❤ John needs to hear this….I think he would love it!!! You really do deserve to have much more worldwide recognition than you already have and I am sharing your music wherever I can!!!

[siobhanmurphy]

Thankyou Tommy! We love John here in Australia! You did him proud. ❤

I'm an Aussie and, therefore, an over-protective John Farnham fan (which is the law here). That's a damn hard song to cover. I approve of this cover. Well done Tommy.

The arrangement was excellent. Vocally almost nobody can match John Farnham, but you absolutely did justice to this anthem. Others have covered this song and more often than not it fails miserably, but not this cover. I'm impressed.

[leannemarx]

Oh wow - this is absolutely brilliant! I love this song so much - my era, the 80's. Such a fan of your work - everything you tackle is a masterpiece.🤘

[alannaturner]

Your voice is good for my soul. Your voice is therapy! ❤❤❤ I feel very calm when I hear you singing. Never stop singing.

[Saggigirl]

Australia's national anthem, well adopted anthem anyway. Proud Aussie here

[kaelynshea]

WOW WOW WOW A long time ago I saw John Farnham live in concert. That guy has an astonishing voice, so powerful. And this song has such a strong message. Is there anyone who can adequately cover it?? Of course there is and his name is TOMMY JOHANSSON. There is no one else who can do it. Another epic cover. You are amazing, Tommy. YOU ARE THE VOICE 🥰🤘🤘🤘

[kazaroony]

As an Aussie John Farnham fan, I was curious as to how you’d cover this. What a fantastic tribute to an awesome performer. Thank you for an epic end to my Friday Tommy. You are brilliant!❤

[alleenmaartoffedingen]

My gosh never heard of you and juist clicked on this video. What a voice Unreal. I am gonna watch it all now. 👍👍👍👍

And the guitar play also excellent👍👍

[susanjw]

An awesome tribute to Farnsy whilst he is fighting a battle with mouth cancer!

[taika.melissa]

I'm sitting here with a stupid smile on my face and tears rolling down my cheeks at the same time. This is so AWESOME! 🥰🤘

[LydiaGovelli]

I really hope John has heard this. Recovering still from surgery after losing part of his jaw to cancer, just know he would love this.

[didiwebber]

What a song, what a voice. It's epic!

[kittygaming]

A song that reflects our days! Love it! ❤

[mina]

I'm listening to this with my eyes closed, wow, what a show, top notch.
