    Judith Durham, the lead singer, had a fabulous voice, and she moved to a career in jazz singing, which she loved, after she left The Seekers. Judith suffered from a chronic lung condition that she had since being a young child. Eventually she died from it this year. What a trooper she was! You must hear the group sing, "I Am Australian". Even Americans do the patriotic hand on the heart to this one!

      The music industry is specifically targeted to girls of fourteen or so, and the manufactured stars are picked so their target audience will identify with them. After they reach a certain point they’re audience turns into cultists! What’s worse, there’s no room for a Laura Nyro, a Grace Slick, a Chryssie Hynde or a Tina Turner.

    I'm so glad you two have found the Seekers. If you care to dive in for a bit longer reaction, check out their performances of their biggest hit, 'Georgy Girl.' plus the iconic 'Waltzing Matilda' and what many feel should be the Aussie's national anthem, 'I Am Australian,' written by group member Bruce Woodley. They sang the three songs at the 1994 national football final in Melbourne, 30 years after this video you've just watched. Judith never lost her voice, even well into her 70s. It's an 11-minute video but I promise you'll love it, and you'll feel like an Aussie yourselves by the time it's over. Please keep up your fun reactions! Thanks.

    The Seekers in their heyday shared the pop charts in Britain with both the Beatles and the Rolling Stones, often displacing them for the number one spot in the the top fourty hit parade for that week.
    Later in their career one of the band penned the song "I am Australian" which is now a popular unofficial Australian anthem. The Seekers reformed in the early 2000s and played that at the AFL Grand Final at the MCG in Melbourne Australia. This is one of the prime sporting events in the world and boasts about 100,000 spectators at the stadium. At the height of their success they played to a crowd of over 200,000 people at an outdoor concert in Australia, which I believe is still a record concert crowd for the Southern hemisphere.

    The seekers were a very good folk/pop band from Australia. In fact, I think they were the first Australian group that had success here in the United States. "I'll Never Find Another You" was their very first top 10 hit and an excellent song. You both said you would like to hear other songs from them. I have the perfect suggestion. Please react to The Seekers "Georgy Girl". It is my favorite song from them and it was also their biggest hit. "Georgy Girl" is such a happy, feel-good song. I think you will both love it.

    Although it's difficult for those who weren't there to believe, for a short time during late 1965 and early 1966 the popularity of this singing quartet from Australia was sufficient to rival the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. The Seekers were at the head of the British Invasion's acoustic folk-rock division, right there with Peter & Gordon and Chad & Jeremy and more successful than either -- they scored a string of number one hits in England and Top Ten successes in the U.S. that lasted into 1967, two years later than most of the rest of the British exports to America. You must play their biggest hit GEORGY GIRL and Oscar nominated. The Seekers were the most successful group, at the time to come out of Australia. In a chance meeting years later, Maurice Gibb ran into Judith Durham and told her that the Bee Gees had tried desperately to get her group to record MASSACHUSETTS which the Bee Gees then took to great success.

This song was written especially for them by Tom Springfield, the older brother of Dusty Springfield, who was also a fabulous singer. The Seekers are most familiar to Americans for "Georgy Girl", but they sounded fabulous no matter what song they sung.

    Another hit for them was "World of Our Own". So sad that Judith died just a few months ago.

    I just came to your channel for BTS’s Heartbeat and decided to see what else I’d missed in your reactions first. Judith Durham’s voice just gives me goosebumps - it’s very distinctive with it’s beautiful combination of clarity and richness.

    Welcome to the great music if the 60's and this song only reinforces that, not only are the harmonies fantastic and the song itself and listening to the words in this song is so romantic.😊❤👍

    I appreciate you reacting to music of my hippie days. This was released in 1964. Great song! Great reaction. Thanks for the memory.

    Greetings ladies from across the pond 😊🇬🇧 I’ve just found your channel having stumbled on your reaction to Georgy Girl, loved it. There are so many great songs to chose from with The Seekers, check out The Carnival Is Over, Island If Dreams, A World Of Our Own to name a few. They were around a little before my time (I showed up in ‘71?lol) but my parents were into them and I do recall them playing albums from The Seekers when my brother and I were very young, in particular The Seekers recorded a beautiful children’s song called Morningtown Ride which is beautiful, I’d I’ve to see you react to that because an abiding memory from when we were little was mom playing that to send us off to sleep 😊

    Listen to any Seekers song, they are all brilliant. Judith Durham and Karen Carpenter have the most beautiful angelic voices to ever grace this planet.

    This song was number one in England, knocked the Beatles off number one on the charts, reach number four in the US. Check out another of their hits, "Georgie girl," number one in England number two in the US, was the title song from a movie and nominated for Academy Award for best song of the year.

    Sorry I'm so late to the party, but I just saw your reaction. I agree that the Seekers are an easy listening group that provides excellent harmony. If you like them, then I think that you would also enjoy Peter, Paul and Mary and the Association.

    I would recommend listening to the Seekers' songs. The Carnival Is Over & I am Australian. They produced many great songs.

    This song was written by Tom Springfield, brother of Dusty Springfield who was a big star in the UK (and had hits in the US and Australia). He also wrote The Carnival is Over, another big hit for The Seekers, based on an old Russian folk song. The Seekers were virtually unknown when they left Australia working as entertainers on a ship to the UK. This song gave them almost instant celebrity. Try The Carnival is Over, Georgy Girl or I am Australian. They were still doing gigs, playing and singing beautifully, until Judith's sad passing within a week of Olivia's death.

    Judith's voice shones through, but Keith Athol and Bruce had lovely voices and could play beautifully. All up their voices together harmonised and the song sounded so rich.🎉
