  • Combine one of the loveliest old songs with one of the loveliest voices of the 1960s and what do you get? A masterpiece! Judith stunned her fellow bandmates of the Seekers when she announced that she was quitting to go solo in July 1968 ... a decision which she now says she deeply regrets, since it hurt her three friends in the group and left millions of fans deeply disappointed. After 25 years, they reunited - but we still have little gems like this one to remember her solo years by.

    "Through violence, you may solve one problem but you sow the seeds for another.".... Dalai Lama
    Wars = countless of Danny Boys didn't make it back homes = taking lives unnecessary/killing = violence. Is there any war which has ever brought about everlasting PEACE? Whenever there is an action, there is an equal re-action and we have to held responsible. How many times must a man wakes up before he realises that he is killing his own brother and sister, father and mother, son and daughter. Let us cease fire and wage PEACE to bring about harmony within and without.

      Would God I were the tender apple blossom
      That floats and falls from off the twisted bough
      To lie and faint within you silken bosom
      Within your silken bosom as that does now!
      Or would I were a little burnish'd apple
      For you to pluck me, gliding by so cold
      While sun and shade you robe of lawn will dapple
      Your robe of lawn, and you hair's spun gold
      Yea, would to God I were among the roses
      That lean to kiss you as you float between
      While on the lowest branch a bud uncloses
      A bud uncloses, to touch you, queen
      Nay, since you will not love, would I were growing
      A happy daisy, in the garden path;
      That so your silver foot might press me going
      Might press me going even unto death
