Description
John Farnham's "Age Of Reason," released in 1988, marked a triumphant comeback for the Australian singer after a brief hiatus from the music industry. The album's success solidified Farnham's status as one of Australia's most respected and beloved artists, and it remains one of his most critically acclaimed works.
The album opens with the title track, "Age Of Reason," a powerful and anthemic song that showcases Farnham's emotive vocals and his ability to deliver heartfelt performances. The song's introspective lyrics and soaring chorus set the tone for the rest of the album, which is filled with a mix of ballads and upbeat pop-rock tunes.
Another standout moment is "Two Strong Hearts," a tender duet with Australian singer Kate Ceberano. The song's heartfelt lyrics and the chemistry between the two vocalists create a touching and intimate listening experience.
The album's diverse range of tracks, from the soulful ballad "Beyond The Call" to the energetic pop-rock anthem "Break The Ice," demonstrates Farnham's versatility as a singer and his willingness to explore different musical styles.
Throughout "Age Of Reason," Farnham's emotive and powerful voice remains at the forefront, delivering each song with sincerity and conviction.
The album's commercial success and critical acclaim are a testament to Farnham's enduring talent as a vocalist and his ability to connect with audiences on a profound level.
