"A Voice in the Wilderness" is a song by Cliff Richard and the Shadows, released as a single in January 1960.

It peaked at number 2 on the UK Singles Chart and also received a silver disc for 250,000 sales.

The version released as a single was recorded on 20 December and there are some subtle differences in the vocals.

[5][1] When the song was in the charts, Richard was asked to record it for the BBC radio show Top of the Pops before he went on a tour of the US and Canada.

His manager, Tito Burns, was not happy when he found out that Richard hadn't recorded "A Voice in the Wilderness" and began telling him about the importance of plugging the A-side.
