Lovely haunting voice. There is a short list of singers from this era of that caliber with us. Nicole Grisoni and Rosetta Ardito come to mind. I was surprised to find out Anne Murray is held in very high regard in such places as Bulgaria. I must take a second look at her art. What happens is you take these artists for granted. There are plenty of young singers with stellar talent, even here, such as Jenn Grant, but the corrupt music industry has shut them out. You have to search for them.
Oh Judith, you will forever be a beautiful vivacious exciting young girl! Your voice was the soundtrack of my youth, blessed with perfect pitch and a voice as clear as a bell, who could resist your charms? God bless you my darling girl, angels are among us so fleetingly but are appreciated for ever.
In short,magnificent and brilliant.So lovely and heartwarming - A very nice song.I have always ❤ The Seekers.and I will continue to;Definitely.Thanks you all for great music memories.
I grew up listening to this song and falling deeply in love with Judith Durhams' looks and voice. To me she epitomised, and still does, all that is truly beautiful in a girl.
I think this is the 1st song I remember as a kid in the 70s, when i was at 1st school , from the seekers, born May 23rd 1968, RIP , to a lovely women,! JUDITH , God Bless from northern Ireland UK, 🇬🇧🤝🇦🇺❤
My Mum used to sing this to me when I was small. And play this record to send me to sleep. I was born in '68 but was lucky enough to see The Seekers live in the 1990s.
Nobody in their right mind has a bad word to say about the beautiful Judith Durham. She has an exceptionally good voice, and this song is so tranquil and relaxing.
Mum sang this song for us kids, on the night that Hurricane Camille decided to pay a visit to the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Aug 1969. We were too scared to sleep, but this song helped. I will never forget that night...
I loved the seekers and their songs since I was 10 years old now at the age of 57 years old I'm still listening to their music Judith Durham you have the most Beautiful Voice on this Planet
Loved this song when l was in my youth. In fact, l used to sing it to my younger siblings to help them sleep, when tired. Still know all the words today. Not as young as l used to be. Rest in peace Judith. Thank you for the music, and the memories. The voice of the Sixties, and for many generations around the world. God bless you and keep you safe in heavens Harbour. Safe in the arms of Jesus. Deepest condolences to the family, the Seekers and Australia at this time. You're all in our thoughts and prayers.
It's an era that has slipped by so quickly but to be part of this magic time and to have enjoyed the best that modern music has to offer, We were further blessed by groups and people who made up the Seekers, The Beatles, The Hollies, etcccc...but Judith Durham had her own special pedestal...and as pedestals go, room for only one....and as the move title states....TAKEN.! Thank you for the joy, Tears and sheer happiness you gave us. For 79 years there was a blank spot in the sky...now forever Filled.🤣
This lovely little song with it's beautiful vocals, sweet lyrics, delicate melody, and vintage instrumentals, has such a pure and precious innocence about it and pulls at my heartstrings. It gives me nostalgic memories and emotions of childhood, even though I never knew of this song when I was a child. For some reason, there are tears in my eyes.
Hello!!! How are you doing today, please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you’re a fan ? Have a great day… Stay Safe
In Judith's own words she did not know how Beautiful and Loved she was. Such a Beautiful Person. Very few people like this not only in the music world but in the world in general. I would give anything to have a friend like Judit.!!!
Yes, she would no doubt make a wonderful friend. I'm privileged to have a lovely 97 year old friend Andrée Dumon, Belgian WW2 resistance heroine (codename Nadine), who was betrayed but survived 2 concentration camps- still so kind and cheerful : ruclips.net/video/L6_RVsTgpWI/видео.html
Judith has the most beautiful voice, she sometimes makes me cry. This song is very special for me, here is the reason, It reminds me of being in a children's home called Weedings Hall near Polmont in the early 1970s, I had some wonderful times there, the Matron (Mrs Aitken) was the first mother figure I had, a lovely woman.This song reminds me of an innocence and freedom that's difficult to find today, Thank you Seekers for shining a bright star of hope and comfort. XXXX
This is one of those songs which has its own magic, I'm 9 years of age, playing out on my two wheel scooter, when I bump into my school friend ,who is with his big sister, and she has a small transistor radio in her hand, and this song is playing, I see her and her little brother every time I hear this song.I have many good memories of this period in my life, but few are better than this one,
All of the Seekers songs have a magic of their own and bring such joy to people like myself-my parents were great fans of the Seekers and later gave an LP "Come The Day" which they bought in the 60s and which I still have in my collection
I first heard this song from the Irish Rovers back in the early 1970s as a child. It wasn't until years later and I heard this version that I found out The Seekers are the ones who made it famous. What a beautiful song, and a great early music video set on the 'Puffing Billy' steam train.
@@krechenklein4453 good morning my friend krechen there is another video here of judith durham singing morning down ride in 1991 for the children hospital fund too
I was just a young boy when the Seekers started :) Judith and The Seekers put Australia on the map for me at a very young age :) Judith is and was so beautiful , i was smitten with such beautiy and that Aussie Voice...elegant and pure beauty ...That was Judith to this young Canadian boy me ...I still love Judith and the Seekers today :)..
I'm 6 years old, just emigrated to Australia, living in a nissan hut, attending a school that has me terrified. We sat on the floor, around the teacher, playing piano, and learnt this song. My daughter now sings it to my grandson when he can't sleep 🌈❤️
good morning my friend diane what other country you was born from. I was born in Canada but was raise by my mom and two stepfathers and i also lived in the netherland's for one year went i was a teenager too
One of my ALL-time favorites. Love the song, love the steam engine! Oh, those memories...released February 4, 1967 reaching #44 on March 25. Long live The Seekers.
Judith's voice is so magical and the Boys together choke me up everytime I hear this song. It harkens back to a simpler, purer time that I wish we could return to.
When one contemplates the events that took place, resulting in the the universe's arrangement in bringing these four people together, it's nothing short of miraculous -- like the miracle of life itself. Future generations will exclaim 'how lucky were the people who were alive when these four sang' -- what an imprint to have left on the world. ...while listening to this with a 4 year old grand daughter, I just nonchalantly asked her what she would wish for if she knew it would come true -- she answered "I wish I could sing like HER" !!
All of the Seekers songs were hits in the 60s. I wish they had continued because after they went back to Australia, music veered off in a heavy R&R direction with the Stones and Beatles. I really miss their pure voices and lyrics.Thanks for the post it evokes happy memories of the 60s in England, UK.
Condolences to Judith's family. What a lovely singer. This song in particular tugs at the heart strings of just about everyone now in their 70's and 60's and was a favourite when we were youngsters.
What a gas to stumble upon this from '66. I remember young Aussies, Kiwis & Canadians converging on the UK that summer; hitch hiking, cargo ship, youth hostels & odd jobs. The music reinforced our sense of 'Commonwealth Cool'. Once again, am reminded how a country with fewer people than Texas has been top heavy with talent for a long, long time. And, yes Virginia, the guys in the band all wore matching suits from a habberdasher...
I don't know about that. Bob Hudson with the ' Newcastle Song ' then this song with the woman's perspective ruclips.net/video/S6XNhMpO7Bw/видео.html Hilarious!!
All these little boys and girls must be grandpas and grandmas now. They have such good stories to share with their children and grandchildren. To have spent their youth in those times is indeed a privilege!!
As I sat on the Essendon taxi rank in the 80's I often thought of Judith Dick and what a wonderful singer she was and please be assured young people, the World is not about to die - the World goes on - it has this way about it
Just found out today that Judith Durham passed away August 5, 2022, in Melbourne, at the age of 79. Her wonderful performance here is what introduced me to The Seekers - I had never heard of them until my dad introduced me to this recording. I would hear it many years later, at age 32, while traveling across Australia by train on the Indian Pacific Railway. Thank you Judith, for the music & memories!
It took me wayyy into adulthood to realize this song's lovely and sweet meaning. But dad sang it to me often. Morningtown...comes way too soon when you're old and tired.....😂 Thanks for the beauty , Judith. ❤❤

What a beautiful voice she had. Also she was a gifted Pianist.
We have lost a most precious soul in Judith’s passing…may her beautiful soul find its place in the splendor of Gods loving arms…
This song makes me so sad .. this beautiful lady is missed. LK
Yes
I am 70 years old and have had a crush on Judith since I was a teenager. Wholesome and beautiful. God rest you in peace XX
I don’t blame you. Awesome lady! She would be so flattered.
We'll Never Find Another You , Judith.

Singers like Judith Durham are rare these days, her voice is like gold.
Singers like Judith Durham have always been rare, no more rare now than 50 years ago.
@@np8101Judith Durham... she died way to young. Wish i could turn back the clock and listing this amazing song for the 1st time.
Such voices were very rare during her time as well.
Another was Karen Carpenter
@@Thorsten369I wouldn’t say “way too young.” She was 79. But I agree with your sentiment.
A magical song for those born in the 60's.. few things retain their magic quite like this song.
very proud to be a 2008 kid who grew up on this song :)
In short,magnificent and brilliant.So lovely and heartwarming - A very nice song.I have always ❤ The Seekers.and I will continue to;Definitely.Thanks you all for great music memories.
I love singing this to my twin grandsons, what a beautiful voice Judith had x
Rest in peace judith you were my idle growing up now in 60 .and still play your songs Godbless you judith.amen🙏💖✌💙🦋🕊🕊🕊🦋🦋🕊🕊🕊🌹🌹🌷🌷🌻
She would feel so honored!

My Mum used to sing this to me when I was small. And play this record to send me to sleep. I was born in '68 but was lucky enough to see The Seekers live in the 1990s.
God Bless you Judith Durham... Gone but NEVER forgotten 💔
Nobody in their right mind has a bad word to say about the beautiful Judith Durham.
She has an exceptionally good voice, and this song is so tranquil and relaxing.
Why WOULD anyone want to say a negative thing about Judith? She'll always be a bright spot of joy and beauty.
Agreed this is in my opinion the most iconic song they have done
R.I.P. Judith
@@kevinrussell1144 I am sure there are a-cultural people who would.
Just ignore them.
Beautiful
Also. One of the best versions of Danny boy I ever heard
Mum sang this song for us kids, on the night that Hurricane Camille decided to pay a visit to the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Aug 1969. We were too scared to sleep, but this song helped. I will never forget that night...

RIP JUDITH DURHAM. Most perfect voice ever!
Truly one of the most beautiful songs made and sung by the gifted voice of Judith Durham. Both will be remembered for a long time to come. Joe S.
They have been a fabulous group right from the very start ..... there will never be another group like them.
Such a beautiful song.Sing with the angels in heaven Judith.Rest in peace.
RIP Judith what a wonderful lady when I watch this video reminds me of my happy times as a child love the looks on those kids faces better times
Her voice is mesmerising..RIP BEAUTIFUL AUSSIE ANGEL..

Once in a lifetime comes along a Judith Durham ! Pure class,pure talent. Nothing needed to changed,added or taken away,her voice was perfect
Judith RIP thank you for the wonderful music.

Such innocence from a golden time where has it all gone wrong

There was plenty wrong in those days. It is just that with time, the bad memories fade and the good memories stay.
Judith has a Lovely voice wow those golden years have gone by
Dirty sewer of a society because of politicians.

Einfach nur toll und ausgesprochen sympathisch. Diese Stimme !!! Wie gern wäre ich Australier.
I saw them in a concert in Cardiff a few years ago, absolutely brilliant, Judith still sounds amazing, voice of an angel

Hilarious!!
When I have grandchildren,I will play this song & snuggle up with the babies!
never heard this child story but fell so deeply in love with this song when I heard it as an adult
Summertime at Christmas in the 60s with the Seekers playing on the Transistor fond memories innocent times in Australia.
Born in August 1963. Honestly this is the first song I remember, Awesome to have found it again!
Same here. 1964.
Watching this with my dad at Christmas.. I even remember him singing it as we used to walk to his allotment.
In 1966 I was 14 years old, such happy days.
This was one of my very favorite songs when I was young. Thank you, Judith, for the beautiful memories.
i was just born 66 and grew up listening radio to such songs on radio beautiful
Not having Judith in this world anymore has dulled the sky forever. God bless you Judith!
Just heard of her passing, non the less it brought a tear to my eyes. This lady could really sing. R.I.P Edith.
Somewhere there is sunshine, somewhere there is day, somewhere there is Morningtown, many miles away.
Remember this when a wee kid in the 70s at school , born May 23rd 1968 from northern Ireland UK,♥️🇬🇧
if an angel could sing this is what it would sound like..
The voice of an angel
Very few musicians can sing with so much supreme vocal voice,as so very great,than talent fine arts gift given Judith Durham.❤
Makes me think of my children now all with their own little ones. Such a feel good song and do we need them now.
Childhood memories....... thank you Judith x
Reminds me of my childhood in England on the 60s wonderful rip Judith Durham beautiful voice beautiful person x
All these little boys and girls must be grandpas and grandmas now. They have such good stories to share with their children and grandchildren. To have spent their youth in those times is indeed a privilege!!
The magic! The magic! Still love this in 2022 as I did when I first heard it. The perfect group.
Reminds me of my childhood and it makes me a little tearful .
My teacher mid 70’s played this sound I had a crush on her Judith many years later!
Simple times🥰
Lovely song lovely lady sleep in peace 🇦🇺💕💕💕💕💕
Beautiful music I will miss you Judith

Yep, she was 79, bet she didn't look it though, she always was gorgeous.

It took me wayyy into adulthood to realize this song's lovely and sweet meaning. But dad sang it to me often. Morningtown...comes way too soon when you're old and tired.....😂 Thanks for the beauty , Judith. ❤❤
Beautiful, just beautiful, thanks Judith love you thanks
Judith will never die. Her music lives forever. I can listen to her whenever I like she's always there. For me she is alive.
Remember seeing this clip on TV when I was a toddler. They were (are) a a class of their own.
