One Voice
In this unifying ballad, Barry Manilow shares how it takes just one voice to speak up and inspire solidarity for positive change. According to Manilow, the song came to him in a dream: "It woke me up and I croaked it into my cassette recorder and then went back to sleep. When I woke up and played it back, there it was.
