I am Australian great song they sang for Australia
Polo you wont besurprised to know The Seekers started out as a folk and gospel group, The Seekers - featuring the golden soprano voice of Judith Durham, and smooth flawless harmonies of Athol Guy, Keith Potger and Bruce Woodley ....Just as Soul music of the 60s and todate has its roots in Gospel . The Seekers sound too came from their deeply spiritual and religious beliefs . Judith RIP passed away in 2022 from broncial illness that she had suffered all her life.....The SEEKERS from Australia were flown to England in 1964 in the middle of Beatle Mania they became overnight superstars with huge record sales in the U.S and UK and Worldwide ....50 million records ...
Sadly Judith Durham passed away a few months ago. Now every time I hear her sing now I have tears in my eyes. Truly the voice of an angel. Another song that was big back in the day was Georgie Girl.
We need music like this in today's world.
The Seekers were the biggest band to come out of Australia during the mid-sixties and had a great sound. Judith Durham had a wonderful voice, and the backing vocals of Athol Guy, Keith Potger, and Bruce Woolley were a perfect accompaniment to it. You always get a warm feeling listening to their music - the voices are like an auditory hug. Try their songs "Georgy Girl" and "The Carnival is Over". RIP Judith D. My favourite similar bands would be The Mamas and the Papas and Peter Paul and Mary. Also I'd suggest Pentangle - an astonishing band that's a bit more folky but quite similar.
Pentangle's "Cruel Sister" is my favourite album of theirs. Jacqui McShee's vocals are amazing! Also Renaissance's "Turn of the Cards" album is another favourite of mine as Annie Haslam's vocals are also "wow!".
Definitely try Georgy Girl!!
I agree with the suggestion for Peter Paul and Mary, and also the mamas & the papas
Bruce Woodley wrote I am Australian, try the farewell performance.
They were very influential in folk music but also made an impression on the rock world with their harmonies
The Seekers started singing together in 1962. All of their music is beautiful. They were always a class act who actually knocked the stones and Beatles out of the number one spot on the chart with their Oscar nominated song, Georgie Girl, in 1967. In 1968, Judith left the band to go solo and got married. The Seekers got back together in 1992 and began rehearsing for their (25) silver jubilee concert series which took place in 1993. You will find it on RUclips and it’s fantastic. After that, they got together on special occasions and for charity events along with working on their own individual careers. In 1997, they put out another album called Future Road with new songs that they all contributed to plus two covers. It’s a great album. In 2014, they preformed their last concert series together for their golden anniversary. During that time, Judith had a brain bleed and had to be admitted into the hospital. After she recovered, they went on to finish their tour. This would be it for Judith though. When she was a child, she had measles and it caused her to develop a lung disease with caused her to have heart problems. On August 5, 2022, she passed away from the disease. She was a kind, caring and classy person with a beautiful voice.
Judith, one of the most remarkable voices ever....and she had a lifelong lung desease! "When The Stars Begin To Fall" is amazing.
One of the few great love songs sung by a woman. Most love songs are penned and sung by men. Judith had the voice of an Angel and we were all saddened to hear of her passing into The Great Void. The Aussies already there have made her welcome. She will dwell in the House of The Lord forever.
I want to be Judith Durham when I grow up. Not only is she a spectacular songstress, but she is gorgeous! This whole group just blends together so well. I remember hearing this song when I was young… Like when the song came out. They have a song called Georgie Girl that was very popular and I remember playing that record over and over again. It was a different era and I’m glad I experienced it. I was so sad when I heard that Judith passed this last year. Even as this group aged, they sounded astounding and passed the test of time.
Great reaction they had many hits please react to " Georgy Girl" and "The Carnival Is Over" also a song called "I Am Australian "
'I am Australian' is their greatest, check it out.
Listen to their song, Georgy Girl, title to the movie with Lynn Redgrave. It’s another uplifting, melodic song I think you’d enjoy!
Always love hearing the Seekers and especially our beautiful Judith. RIP sweet Judith, you are missed.
The boys have released a song that Judith recorded the Melody to a couple years before she died. The boys have completed it and they debuted it at her internationally broadcast State Memorial Service. Again Amazing. There final gift to all the fans. It is called Carry On.
Yes. Absolutely! But I think it’s Carry Me
The Seekers, the new seekers, and the byrds all do it for me. Turn turn turn has that great uplifting angelic sound. Bliss.
Never grows old; simply & real musical talent, great harmony & Judith’s exquisite voice.
Even up to their retirement from a few years ago, The Seekers have maintained that great distinctive sound.
Listen to 'The Seekers' Discography early & often.
Their 'Farewell Performance' singing 'I Am Australian' is iconic and shouldn't be missed. Love their songs more the older I get. 💕
If you haven't heard "I am Australian", bring tissues with you. If you loved Judith's voice on this one, wait for it. Angelic.
@tjmannion1 I can't listen to it anymore, weep every time. I will again, later though. 🙂
Fabulous Aussie group. I like your calming presence. Good reactions. You will perhaps enjoy The Carnival is over, or Georgia Girl. The Seekers broke up when on top, then got back together decades later. Judith Durham sounded exactly the same. We Are Australia is a classic from their second period.
The Carnival is Over was my favourite Seeker's song. We played it at my Dad's funeral 30 years ago as it was one of his favourite songs of all time.
You definitely need to hear the Mamas & the Papas, very similar and lovely folk-pop vibe from the same era. Great stuff. Also from this era/movement are the (all-male) supergroup Crosby, Stills, Nash (& sometimes Young), as well as one of my most respected bands of all time, the Byrds. They also don't have any female singers but they feature incredible guitarwork on a 12-string guitar. Amazing stuff. (David Crosby of the previously mentioned supergroup started out with the Byrds, and coincidentally, sadly just passed away. )
You've already done some responses to Simon & Garfunkel, they were also a part of that folk revival. :) Not surprising that since you liked those you'd like this as well.
A great group from the early 1960s that are similar to The Seekers is "Peter, Paul and Mary." They were inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fane in 1999. They had a ton of hits including: Puff the Magic Dragon, 500 Miles, Where Have all the Flowers Gone, Leaving on a Jet Plane, Cruel War and Blowing in the Wind. Great vocalists, great harmony.
I'm an Aussie but preferred P,P&M since I was a young teenager, attended two of their concerts and have most of their records and CDs.
Yep, they were another excellent group ...
The carnival is over “by the seekers is one you should listen too
This was the first song that came on in my car after my dad's funeral in 2002. thankfully my husband was driving because I was a mess. I will suggest Petula Clark and The 5th Dimension which is from the same time. Incredible talent. If you want to get into some late 60's psychedelic then you gotta listen to Iron BUtterfly "In The Time Of OUr LIves" and "Soul Experience". SO so good!
Favourite Seekers song ? How long have you got ? 50yr long catalogue. Georgie Girl,Morningtown Ride,Carry Me,Colours Of My Life,The Carnival is Over,Rattler.......probably 40 more that were hits & twice that being more than liked by fans. Their fans are legion & Judith had a generational voice.Aussie legends.We have many...... Check out John Farnham although I recommend you only go down one rabbit hole at any giveb time !
I have known this song for a long time. But I have never seen this particular live performance. Thanks man, great review.
“Like A Rolling Stone” by (Bob Dylan) live @ Newport, is also amazing. It sounds very folky, just like The Seekers.
I think you would enjoy it, and it’s also in black & white (mid 60’s). ✌️
When I was a kid, I thought the Mamas and the Papas sang this song; their harmony was reminiscent of the Ms & Ps (I thought), and I'm only just now catching up to the Seekers.
Hi! Thanks for your reaction to my FAVOURITE group of all time! I grew up with this group! TRULY beautiful! We lost Judith 5th August last year! Cried on and off all day! Try The Carnival is over, Colours of my life, George Girl, When the Stars begin to fall! That’s just a few! Any of those are fabulous! Thanks again! Peace and Blessings from Australia.
Growing up in this era has left me feeling perhaps unfairly privileged but at the same time, deeply missing so many of these beautiful people we’ve lost along the way. One band that comes to mind and in similar in someways to the Seekers is Spanky and our Gang. Two of their hits that come to mind are “Sunday Will Never Be The Same” and “ I’d like to get to know you”.
The Carnival Is Over is another great hit by the Seekers
You nailed it when you said they all sing beautifully but hers soars over them.
The seekers has a youthful sound. Especially Judith's voice.
Her voice is fantastic, as are their harmonies. And this was a live performance. My other big favorite by them is 'Georgy Girl', their biggest hit here in the states, and my favorite song in the world for a while in early 67 (there was so much great music back then a song never remained a favorite for all that long). I wasn't even in Kindergarten yet when this song was a hit, but I was already a huge music fan, growing up in a very musical family with six older siblings and parents who loved music. I loved this song back then and still do. Great choice. Check out 'Georgy Girl' for sure.
I love the Seekers.. The Carnival is Over is also beautiful.. I am Australian great too..
Judith had a music degree in performance. She had to work at it to be that good. She recently passed away from a long term lung ailment. RIP Judith, you'll always be my favorite from my young years.
Thank you for the privilege of joining you on your journey! I absolutely love Judith Durham's voice.
I am 63 years old and when I was a kid when there’s song ‘Georgie Girl’ came out of the little speaker on my transistor radio…It epitomized summer in the 60s along with the Beach Boys.
I first played this record back in 1965 and wanted to learn more about this greatest sound from Australia! Other songs I remember back then include World Of Our Own, The Carnival Is Over, Some Day One Day, Mornington Ride and Georgie Girl
RIP Judith Durham who suffered like Karen Carpenter from press attacks regarding her looks
You should check out The Carnival is Over by the Seekers. I'm pretty sure it's based on an old Russian folk song. It's touching,memorable with Judith's beautiful voice and the harmonies.
One of the best songs ever done.
“The Carnival Is Over” is an astounding song by The Seekers.
Judith died a short time ago. What a loss. 😞
Try them singing The Carnival is Over. Her voice is just beautiful. I also like I am Australian from the Seekers.
I loved Judith Durham from the first time I heard that voice (1960s). Incredible
Man I hadn't heard that song In 20 years, magic! If the old 60s stuff floats your boat, Peter, Paul & Mary might be a good fit. Leaving on a Jet Plane?
I loved the Seekers from the 1960’s when I first heard it♥️
Unchained melody by the righteous brothers . Very good . From 1965 .
If you want to hear more from this era try The Righteous Brothers “Unchained Melody “ also “You’ve Lost that Loving Feeling” and “Soul and Inspiration “. You can’t go wrong. Thx
Real Music!!! Real Talent!!!
Great reaction! Their other big hits were A World of Our Own (1965) and Georgy Girl (1966/7).
We lost Judith the same week we lost Olive Newton-John. Australia lost two of its greatest but heaven gained two amazing voices to add to it choir of angels. If you haven't done them already you MUST go down the rabbit hole that is ABBA. The biggest selling group of the seventies and the biggest ever after the Beatles. The guys wrote all the music and performed with their wife and girlfriend who's voices were the perfect blend. I'd suggest a song called Fernando if you liked this and go from there. They topped the charts all over Europe, South America, Asia and Australia from 1974-1982 and last year at ages 71-76 released a new original album that was a worldwide hit and critically aclaimed.
I listened and fell in love with their music in the 60s and they still have that magic to keep me listening to them today! Judith Durham's voice is just hypnotic to me anyway! It's a shame she passed about a year ago but I know I am happy that she was recorded and can be listened to today!
For me when I started listening to them in the 60s and when I listen to them now it still amazing and her voice was never changing and always stayed wonderful till she was called to heaven to sing with the angels!
The Seekers were an absolutely outstanding group .... and Judith Durham without doubt had one of the greatest voices of all time.
You have excellent taste .... i am 66 years old and was brought up on beautiful songs like this.
My fav Seekers song .. The Carnival is Over ...
So do I love this era and I grew up listening to them in Australia ❤
Wonderful, wonderful Seekers. Australian icons and probably the first Aussie group to smash the international scene. Sadly, we lost our lovely Judith Durham last year. So many wonderful songs for you to explore.
Peter Paul and Mary
THE mama's and pappers
Dusty Springfield
Sandy Shore
Hope you enjoy them
Similar sounds: We Five, New Colony Six, Mike Curb Congregation, New Christy Minstrels. Should probably add Peter, Paul, and Mary.
Other laid-back vocal harmonies where the instrumentation is not intrusive: Chad & Jeremy, Peter & Gordon.
Definitely check out the Mamas & Papas and Peter, Paul & Mary. I also like Spanky & Our Gang. Another beautiful voice is Mary Hopkin "Those Were the Days".
The original video recording of I'll Never Find Another You by The Seekers made in 1964 recorded at Abby Road studios is well worth a listen. Would suggest people who enjoyed this recording give that a listen.
Unfortunately this was a shortened version of the song for a TV show. You need to listen to the studio version that includes a musical interlude and another chorus. Judith Durham was one of those extra special voices and she kept her voice well into her old age. They had a number of hits and also did excellent covers of other bands. Judith Durham singing "Yesterday" is a wonderful listen.
Another group that you might want to listen to from this era are the Springfields. Tom Springfield wrote many of the songs for the Seekers. Dusty Springfield spun off and became one of the great female solo artists of the 60's. I recommend "Island of Dreams," and "Silver Threads, Golden Needles" by them.
I love how you said that… I was born in the wrong era… my dad used to say that to me all the time! I was born 1976. But I love elvis, Johnny cash etc
We'll never find another you, Judith. RIP.
If you like vintage. Check out a band called "The hollies." "Look through any window" and many more
I've been missing folk music for 2-3 decades. Folk music was the music of protest in the 60's also and I miss how engaged people were in politics. They wanted things to change and they let people know that and music was one way to convey that.
One great song that I think you'd like from that time is Troy Shondells This Time.
They did a children’s lullaby called Morningtown Ride that is very sweet
Beautiful Judith RIP.
Listen to the Seekers “Climb every mountain” and her high note at the end, Wow!
That's a Judith solo.
If you enjoy this you'd enjoy The Mammas and the Pappas, Crosby Stills and Nash, Simon and Garfunkel, and The Association.
You need to Revisit the Seekers…Hit “Georgy Girl”and/or “I am Australian”…both great!
True singer, imagine whith our technology
Feel like this about Jesus!❤Love that He will never leave me.
Judith's voice is very beautiful as well as her personality. The song tells us about not leaving someone's company without giving their name, however the song tells us that it tells us about the promised land and that it doesn't matter if she loses everything since what she cannot lose is who accompanies her. It refers to Jesus and some consider the song a gospel.
Check out the video of them recording the original. You will be amazed.
Elton John described Judith’s voice as the most beautiful in all of pop music.
Georgia girl is another beautiful song of theirs
We sang the seekers song, Lemon Tree in primary school in Sydney, Australia , check out Quicksilver Messenger Service
Highy recomend The Carnival is over, This band knocked the Beatles off no.1 on the charts.
She actually had a lung condition. Imagine how powerful her voice might have been !
You have excellent taste in music young Sir! Warm Wishes from Australia🦘☀
It makes me cry for lost youth.
Hello, yes I've been kinda binge-watching you tonight. It's fun to watch newby's with old music that I've been listening to for a long time. Yes you make me smile with the joy that you get from watching vintage ☺️ you need to listen to Crazy by Patsy Cline, The Ink Spots - Don't get around much anymore, The Beach Boys, Seals & Croft. Aretha Franklin. Steppenwolf. I think you might enjoy some of those 😊 and yes anyting that Faith Hill does is really wonderful. And their kids are beautiful. You need to listen to the story why Angelina Jordan goes barefoot it's a very touching story. Now I'll get back to watching more of your reactions 👍
No question, my favorite band from this period and this genre, folk/folk pop/folk rock is The Mamas & The Papas. Check out California Dreamin-1965, Monday, Monday-1968, Dedicated to the One I Love-1967.
RIP Judith of The Seekers. ✌️🙏
Judith had one of the best voices out there.
Love everyone of there song's love them
Amazing...You made the statement in this review, "sometimes I feel I was born in the wrong era"... Well I'm 67, and I can barely remember 1964 at age 9. That said, I've said many times, I wish I was born perhaps 5 to 10 years earlier, as the music of the late 50's and 60's are truly spectacular!! ENJOY!!
60’s music is awesome. A good psychedelic song is Jefferson Airplane’s song White Rabbit.
Jana letting me borrow her account....
Two examples of strong voiced females (that aren't Barbra Streisand) singing folkish/popish music from the 60's (from my memory):
Gale umm...Gardner? "We'll Sing in the Sunshine"
We Five - "You Were on My Mind"
For the sisters side (that aren't Aretha, nor Ella):
Dinah Washington - "Since I Fell for You" in a bluesy dixieland style - a song I first knew for many years by Lenny Welch I later in life found was a cover (thank you Ken Burns "Jazz")
OW! My brain....time for a nap...enjoy
Judith Durham is the magic that makes this group better than average. I had a huge crush on her when I was young, but she married the love of her life in England.
They’re contemporary, but do feature a truly beautiful female voice, and if you’re not into the filk genre you mightn’t have come across them, so I’ll recommend Vixy and Tony. ‘We Are What We Are’ is possibly the best known of their songs, but really everything is lovely.
They had a big hit in UK called “The Carnival Is Over” , (which kept The Who’s “My Generation” off No 1 spot. )
I am now in my sixties and European.
Strange when I hear this song again, my brain gave me the images of the dashboard of my father's car.
Where else would you have time for music as a toddler?
Island of Dreams by the Seekers is great too!
World of Our Own, Colours of My World, both by the Seekers
One of my favorite 60s tunes "Sherry" by the Four Seasons
We lost Judith last year. She had lung problems since childhood. So hard to fathom with that quality voice.
Underrated song for sure.
👍 👍
Great reaction to a timeless classic.
Take a look at the video of them recording this LIVE in the studio.
Also their LIVE performance of Georgey Girl.
The vid on RUclips supposedly showing the Seekers at Abbey Road recording "I'll Never Find Another You" in one take is actually part of an autobiographical documentary the band recorded around 1967/8. So in that instance, it's a staged (mimed) performance.
But the vid just critiqued here is definitely live and was part of "Farewell The Seekers", recorded by the BBC in 1968.
Sagar and Evans,1960's song 'In the year 2525, maybe they see ' the future.
Prepare for a long and beautiful journey with the Seekers. They made music together over a 52 year span. Don't miss any of their music. They are one of those rare bands who sounded as good in concert as on their recordings. There are three definitive concerts to watch. 1968 that you took this clip from. This was their last performance together after their phenomenal 5 years of success. Then the 1993 Reunion Concert. Around 1995 they did a fantastic album called Future Road. They did several videos and an album documentary for this one. Then there Golden Jubilee Farewell Concert tour in 2013- 2014. Listen to everything you can find. You will be amazed. Get some popcorn and hit the head before you start.
ooh, this was so nice
