With Voice, Alison made a radical diversion and recorded an album of songs by other composers that she loved, with the intention of concentrating on her instrument alone - minus the songwriting she was synonymous for. Voice marked a first for Alison, as it featured a classical orchestra and was produced and arranged by Academy Award winner Anne Dudley. It entered the UK album charts at No.7 and reached gold status, selling a quarter of a million copies. It showcased Moyet's eclectic tastes, and above all - her voice at its best. The Guardian described 'extraordinary tones' and 'flawless' renditions of La Chanson Des Vieux Amants and Bye Bye Blackbird.

One of the U.K.'s most popular and best-selling vocalists of the past two decades, Alison Moyet's husk-and-honey voice has made her equally successful as a blues wailer and a dancefloor diva. Equal focus has always been paid to her sharp songwriting, but her new path keeps listeners firmly focused on the intimacy of those vocals, which sound better than ever on this mature and soul-stirring, lushly produced and arranged (by British film composer Anne Dudley) collection of standards – some old (Legrand, Gershwin), some new (Elvis Costello), a few in French, and all surprising. Edging sweetly into pop-classical territory, Moyet reels us into the "Windmills of Your Mind" before ruminating on "The Man I Love" and exploring the concept of feeling "Almost Blue" (the Costello chestnut). Another highlight is her soaring, ethereal turn on the Costello/Burt Bacharach tune "God Give Me Strength," rendered here like a passionate prayer. She also tackles classical pieces by Bizet and Purcell. Although the tempo and tone of the arrangements are fairly similar, as per the album title, Dudley's restraint allows Moyet's voice to take center stage, where it always belongs. The key to creating a successful standards album is finding unique ways to render familiar material, and peppering the set with obscure pieces that will inspire a deeper study of musical history. Moyet achieves all this and more on this winsome future classic.

Review by Jonathan Widran, Allmusic.com

Alison Moyet's album of covers of everything from Jacques Brel to Purcell is a pleasant surprise. At the height of her solo chart success post-Yazoo, her voice had acquired a gratingly nasal quality which many mistook for soul; here, she has decided to concentrate on it as an instrument rather than as a songwriting vehicle. Largely, this has worked; certainly, she produces some extraordinary tones on a flawless 'La chanson des vieux amants' and on the closing standard 'Bye Bye Blackbird'. The whole is helped by fine arrangements and production from Anne Dudley and guitar from John Parricelli; the addition of glass harmonica for 'Windmills of Your Mind' and marimba and mournful cor anglais to 'Je crois entendre encore' are nice touches. Not everything works, but if 'God Give Me Strength' is fluffed you'll be surprised by the strange, stately quality Moyet and Dudley lend to 'The Wraggle Taggle Gypsies-o!'
