I finally tracked down a song that has been lingering in my memory since my childhood: Russ Ballard's "Voices".
This is one of a handful of songs my dad would blast through the house when Mom was out and I was playing video games.
It stuck because the lyrics were kind of dumb... "walk in the room, in the corner you see, the voice is waiting for me"? See the voice? I played a lot of Zork back then, so I was used to making do with concepts my grade-school brain hadn't learned yet, like granite walls and viscous materials.
70's AM radio rock at its finest. It demands speakers with a woodgrain pattern.
