Got chills watching this the firs time. This is a high quality mid 60's video recording of a historic music recording of an amazing song showcasing an incredible voice. Chills. Thanks.
@@DJKinney I hate to break it to you, man, but if you took the trouble to read Rich's show more section you would see everything about this video explained. This is a re-creation of how the song came to be recorded, done for a later documentary on The Seekers. No actual footage of the original recording exists.
Today is my husband's birthday. He has Alzheimer's and is now in a nursing home. I played him this song and it brought a rare smile to his voice. For a few minutes his eyes lost that vacant look and he gripped my hand and seemed to see me for the first time in years. I know I'll never find another Him.
Das tut mir sehr leid für Dich, ich wünsche Dir alles Gute und das Du bald über diesen Schmerz hinweg kommst. Irgendwann werdet ihr Euch wiedersehen. Alles Liebe und viele Grüße aus Berlin ❤
I lost my husband on February 29, 2020, and every time I hear this song, I think of him. We would have been married for 50 years if he had made it to December. At first, I cried every time I heard it but now I smile because it reminds me of all the good memories.
Helen, very sorry for your loss..I sympathize. My parents were married almost 45yrs..Dad went, then Mom 9mos. later..very sad..Still miss them. Me?? I stayed single @ 72..not by choice, circumstances..
I am sorry for your loss! I was thinking of another song posted by a high school classmate for a classmate we recently lost, when I came across this at the top of the list. It is a perfect way to remember those precious to us and celebrate who they were to so many!
I'm sorry for your loss! We lost our father last year. They lived together with our mother for 56 years. I was born in 1964.. I don't really understand what they're singing about, but my heart sinks and I think about my parents ' youth.. Sincerely from Russia.
I only found out this morning that she passed away. 60 years ago this year they were together as a group and im sure i read somewhere they were considering something to mark their 60th anniversary,I dont know if they managed to achieve it.Judith had such a lovely voice. RIP Judith
I was 16 when this came out. I thought it was the best year of my life when I met "the only one." Old flames, now but embers, still warm the heart all these decades later.
This song was my late wife’s and my anthem during our 47 years of a blessed marriage before I lost her to cancer 3 years ago...it still brings tears to my old eyes when I hear it 😢...but it brings good memories as well 😌
Ah well…isn’t that the lament of the ages! “What was before isn’t now” and that’s my quote btw, not some hoy ploy BS! But I know what you mean….it’s beautiful at least, and just consider yourself lucky you were here to love and appreciate it!

Judith had an over-reaching voice. Strong as a man's but pitched as a woman's. It would never get lost among the strings and other voices in the band. This successful formula was repeated years later in the famous girl-bands of the late 70's - 80's. Sheena Easton, Pat Benatar, Ann Wilson and even Olivia had *_nothing_* on Judith.
I used to sing this song to my beloved wife. We have had a fantastic life. I married my high school sweetheart and we were married for 55 years. She passed away this last January. It is terribly hard to live without her but my faith and our numerous friends help me cope.
I always sing this song for my husband every time we go to karaoke. He passed away in Feb 2024. We have been married for 41 years. I'll never find another him
For us older folks, who grew up in the 60s.This will make you cry and reminisce. Or is it just me? Such a treasure. To think that anything from our past is a keyboard tap away.
Didn’t grow up in the 60’s (late 80’s baby), but this song just brought tears to my eyes. I’m looking for my first dance song and I think this is lovely
God bless you. This and Georgie Girl were both and still are some of the greatest music ever made. For great people like you and your wife. Never stop loving!
I am so sorry for your lost love, my husband past on new years eve, I miss Him so much, I pray you are doing okay, Me, mot doing very well, may God help us, and keep your , loved and my husband in HIS TENDER LOVING CARE.🙏❤
My Grandpa's funeral was yesterday, he was survived by my Grandma. This song was played at their wedding 55 years ago and it was played at my Grandpa's funeral as his last request. My grandma at the funeral talked (through tears) about how the song speaks of a "promised land" but as the song goes on to say it is a "long, long journey" and that the marriage was difficult, even turning into a "nightmare" at times, but with God's grace it was worth it, every minute of 55 years, it was worth it up until "death do us part".
I joined the military in early 65 , the night before I left home my mother played this song. I get a tear every time I hear it. My mother passed in 1966. I wasn't there when she died.
:( Wish I had words that would comfort......the thoughts the& feelings are here..just not the words I'd desire to reach into that place where the heart holds all......
During my apprenticeship, to the Mid Sussex Water Company (1963 - 1968) my boss, who shall remain nameless, was definitely in love with Judith Durham. Never realised the depth of his feelings towards this lady. At my advanced age!, and watching these videos, I now understand his infatuation. She is/was one of the very best singers from my era. RIP Judith Durham. Many thanks to You Tube for these beautiful opportunities to reminisce. You have a lot to answer for!!!!
Absolutely. When people could actually appreciate songs. I was born in 78 but worked in theatres for 20 years, and much more appreciate this style of music.
There is still a lot of talent, especially among young folks who again play the old 'classics'... Please watch Josh Turner Guitar, the Reo Brothers, the Mona Lisa Twins, Foxes and Fossils and many others on You Tube.
You have a good taste in music.... I hope you continue to appreciate the better stuff...as opposed to the nonsense of today. (But everyone says that as they get older ...but...trust me... it is true!)
Now this was true music☆☆~Crazy to think that I was only 6 months when this amazing song was recorded...Tomorrow on Tax Day, April 15th 2024, I turn SIX Decades:) Time FLIES!!
I am Ivan Hicks - 91 - the Korean War Vet - Thankyou - Thankyou - Thankyou - to All Of You Who have sent Your VERY Kind wishes to Me - It has brought Tears to my eyes. Korea was the Forgotten War - But You Have Remembered - God bless You - The "Seekers" are so Very much of that time - God Bless You All
So true. I think you and countless others, including me, experience the same thing whenever they hear this incredible song, performed by this superb band and phenomenal vocalist.
I only started to really enjoy what my parents enjoyed as they dated, went roller skating, worked and fell in love in Lethbridge Alberta in 1963 at a pharmacy counter where myndad drank egg creamed and fell hard for a Scottish lass who I migrated in 1948 to live on beautiful Alerts, Canada. Miss you Mum and Dad
A 21 year old Judith Durham. Just wonderful to see how she addresses the microphone. No ego, gimmicks, auto-tuning or pitch-correction software. She just stood there with hands behind her back and belted it out. Absolutely fabulous! How times have changed.
We all know that no-one can live forever, but it still comes as a shock to lose such an immense talent, RIP Judith and thank you for the pleasure your music has given.
My Mum passed away yesterday aged 79, she loved the Seekers, we are an Australian family in Melbourne ( home of the seekers ). When this song came on the radio she would sing along! Going to play it her funeral.
Music will Always be the best way to express and feel emotions, I remember when I was about 11 years old, I grew up with the sixties music and I Always loved a "rougher" style of music, but when I first heared The Carnival Is Over from The Seekers it grabbed me by the throath and I was a fan for life!! (fyi, did Alice Cooper last october here in the Netherlands, loved it, completely different, which shows, there is NO style which can't be appealing).
Good for you. Music has that ability to bring back memories. This video brings me back to my childhood not only by the song but the video production just looks so 60s. Don't know why. The sound quality is fantastic.
This woman sang so effortlessly yet she's among the best of the voices I've heard. Her voice is almost too good to be authentic, I'm very impressed with her and the guys, the memories of the music and the times are priceless.
So sorry for your lose billy..I lost my husband 7 years ago last February and we.d been married 39 years. Its strange how some music triggers memories.. and I used to play to him YOU WON'T FIND ANOTHER FOOL LIKE ME.. lol.There are lots of 60s songs that reminds me of the happy times we was together... You take care ..
Judith's lovely voice not to mention a beauty that puts all of the Kardashians to shame. God I am thankful that the 60's were my teen years. Greatest music ever.
God bless you Judith. Two years ago I sat holding my Mum's hand while this played at my Dad's funeral. Your voice gave us immense pleasure when I was growing up and immense comfort in difficult times. You'll never be forgotten x
Judith's voice did something to me when I was 8 years old and 60 years on it still pulls at my heart. There's something magical about her voice....what a life's joy.
I heard her before I met my love and wondered if I'd ever feel that way about anyone. And I did, and I was lucky that I was young. I'm 75 now and she's 76 and we're coming to the end, and neither of us will ever find another to replace us. Please have hope that it will happen for you.
@@ruedigersens9888 Greetings back to Germany from a nearly 66 year-old in the USA! This music is a joy all over the world. My husband was stationed with the US Army in West Berlin, in the late 1970's. He had been in Germany with his Army dad years before. We loved it there.
YES ! ! ! That's TRUE . . . and I'm a 52 years young Heavy Metal Fan from Germany ! I LOVE the VOICE and the MELODIES sooo much . . . a WONDERFUL BAND . . . ! ! !
ME TO S MANY PRESCIOUS MEMORIES , I TEAR UP EVERYTIME I HEAR IT BECAUSE IT TAKES ME BACK TO SUCH A SPECIAL TIME OF INNOCENSCE AND HOPE, SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL!
There is nothing wrong with dancing, it just shows that people are enjoying themselves. Anyone can wear whatever they want, outfits and clothing styles are a personal decision to be made ONLY by the person wearing them. And tattoos are only your business if they're on your body. Don't behave like a bitter little boy.
@@eienblack8570 I guess their point is these things have taken the place of talent. If all you have is a clown outfit and clown makeup, you're just a clown. If you want to be a clown that's okay like you say, but it does not equal talent. Most people these days are afraid of clowns, at any rate. It turns out they're a bunch of psychos.
Told my grandson to listen to the words of this song and if he felt this way about his girlfriend then he should marry her before it’s too late as his grandmother and I have been married 56 years and that’s how I feel about her
@@andreawatkins2125 it's not talent... it's being able to copy a famous tune and make all the money from it. back in the 60's the whole world was recycling each others tunes - this one is no exception.
my wife died in june 2020, she dedicated this song to me after 34 years of marriage, we never played this song together, at the funeral i heard this wonderful song, which filled my (our) heart with love, you never know how much you miss someone until they have gone, and its songs like this amazing Judith Durham and the seekers who remind me of the wondeful times we had together xoxo
I am devastated to hear that Judith Durham has passed away 5th August 2022. I listen to her sing EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. The voice of an ANGEL, Rest In Peace lovely Judith 😥😭😭
I definitely come back to this a few times a year., and each time I listen to it about ten times in a row. One of the most beautiful songs ever recorded. It's like I can't wrap my head around it... It's too good. :)
To the contrary, my 19-year-old granddaughter just loves The Seekers, and I send their songs to her, often! She is a student of music, (mostly viola, flute, ukelele and guitar), and she loves old songs of this era!
June 14 of 2023 my husband passed away to his home in Heaven. This song of the Seeker says it all. I cried through it but so true I'll never find another man like my Jimmy, my ditto man. Love you for as long as I live
Judith Durham probably had the purest voice ever. Her notes are perfect and her diction so clear and precise. It has been a privilege to hear her over the years since The Seekers started. :-)
Pido, en primer lugar, perdón por no escribir en castellano. Soy de Catalunya (Spain). Opino también que Judith Durham tiene una voz extraordinaria. Además es también una gran pianista. Tiene una ventaja también. Los tres componentes restantes son excelentes. Y muy importante: el grupo ha sobrevivido cantando, mayoritariamente, folk. Esto ha sido muy difícil. Soy músico y me identifico con The Seekers. Además, si han continuado juntos tantos años es porqué también son personas que se cuidan, i al mismo tiempo han cultivado la amistad entre ellos. Muchas gracias.
This will probably get lost in the comments but my Nan adored the seekers back in the 60s. This June marked 7 years since she passed. Music is such a special thing. It takes you back and it brings back the great memories. This does the latter for me. I love you so much Nan and I’ll see you again ♥️
So lovely you have those memories of your Nan loving their music. Now today we learn Judith has passed away. Voice of an Angel , I too listened to her sing in the 60's. RIP gorgeous Judith,❤
She was the voice of my childhood. So many happy times associated with their songs. I'm listening to them now on YT crying my eyes out because everyone I loved then are all gone. Music brings back so many memories.
Listening 🎧 to this Song reminds me of A Very SPECIAL Lady that I feel In love 💕 💕💕💕💕 with back in the mid 80's ( The LAST part of the 80s 😭😭😭😭😭😭,. I still think of HER Today
I understand why you still enjoy the song after all these years. You have excellent taste in music. This is one of the greatest recordings in history. I was born in 1948 and this is my absolute all-time favorite. Why? Because I also have excellent taste in music. There hasn't been much of anything I like since about 1975 but I could listen to this every day dozens of times a day.

I was saddened to learn this today. I was marveling at how good she looked and sounded at their final concert.
And heaven found a new angel in Judith. rest well Judith. The world has lost one of the most honest artist.
Don't be sad...why???? Because she's very much alive..
More than a beautiful voice - a visionary one. RIP Judith.

Judith and Karen Carpenter, two of the most amazing voices ever. Never grow tired of hearing them.
My top two as well. (You have good taste in women of music!)
Yes
Excellent choices but also add Mary Travers
Yes, and add Barbra Streisand
..and Ricky Nelson--for male musicians.
Who wishes we could get this kind of class these days
Rose White it’s all about do on to others what you would like to have done upon you :) have a great day o/

ME!
Mmm. No 😅😅
Its a fantastic tune , always has been ..... Judith Durham had a voice like no other.
Love love this song and after loosing my husband I play this all of the time. So true for me.
Judith, a voice from heaven. RIP
Amen!
Absolutely!
Massive "ditto" superb voice!!!
Yes,of course
An Arina Grande auditioning for the same gig as this woman would have been laughed out of the studio.
I joined the military in early 65 , the night before I left home my mother played this song. I get a tear every time I hear it.
My mother passed in 1966.
I wasn't there when she died.
Hi mr. James.
This was so sad. I wish you a good and a happy life.
Hugs from Brazil
:( Wish I had words that would comfort......the thoughts the& feelings are here..just not the
words I'd desire to reach into that place where the heart holds all......
You obviously had great love for your Mother and she knows it, bless you.
Great song It’s ANZAC day in Australia The day we honour our veterans. Thanks for your service.RIP mum
Hi james, thanks for sharing such a precious memory
Lost mu husband in December 21 had this played at his funeral.
So sorry for your loss……an excellent song choice, says it all!
Sorry for your lost. My dearest wife died in car crush last month. This dedicated for her....💙🏴
During my apprenticeship, to the Mid Sussex Water Company (1963 - 1968) my boss, who shall remain nameless, was definitely in love with Judith Durham. Never realised the depth of his feelings towards this lady. At my advanced age!, and watching these videos, I now understand his infatuation. She is/was one of the very best singers from my era. RIP Judith Durham. Many thanks to You Tube for these beautiful opportunities to reminisce. You have a lot to answer for!!!!
Back when people had talent, class, and heart.
Very true.
One of the greatest songs of all time
Well stated.
Absolutely. When people could actually appreciate songs. I was born in 78 but worked in theatres for 20 years, and much more appreciate this style of music.
There is still a lot of talent, especially among young folks who again play the old 'classics'...
Please watch Josh Turner Guitar, the Reo Brothers, the Mona Lisa Twins, Foxes and Fossils and many others on You Tube.

Me too, i love her voice
You have a good taste in music.... I hope you continue to appreciate the better stuff...as opposed to the nonsense of today.
(But everyone says that as they get older ...but...trust me... it is true!)
@@patagualianmostly7437 thanks!!!!
She was a powerful singer in a tiny body. I rediscovered them a year ago. Their music was amazing
@@patfromamboy AMAZING!!!!
I swear that Judith was sent from Heaven. Ladies and Gentlemen, the voice of an angel.
Amen
Well, I had the honor of actually watching her descend from Heaven!
Jesus is my Someone. Guide through all the storms. This song reminds me of Him.
She was she is part of my life .
Brother just try our Indian kuckoo's "Lag Ja Gale" and remember that song was recorded very earlier without synthesisers.
I feel sorry for people who don’t appreciate gems like this.
Suzanne Gaskell so do I. Hope Aaron is well in these strange times of Carona.
Really I have to agree
You said it..!
I still cry, after all these years.
i cry every time just dont know what id do with you sweetie
They didn't need any computers to control vocal pitch. Just great natural harmony. And that girl can sing!
? Nice chouir nostalgic
@@samuelingua9880L
She still can 56 years later. They are back out on their 60 year on the road tour.
We have lost those golden times. So sad!
Agreed!
Now this was true music☆☆~Crazy to think that I was only 6 months when this amazing song was recorded...Tomorrow on Tax Day, April 15th 2024, I turn SIX Decades:) Time FLIES!!
Vale, Judith. Your talent will never be forgotten.
Hello how are you doing today and the entire family and friends doing today I really enjoy listening to oldies songs,,,,,,,
Never!
She certainly is sadly missed.
RIP Judith - Your voice will live on forever.
One of the most beautiful songs ever written and sung.
Agreed! Judith Durham has such a beautiful, crystal-clear voice!
ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL LADYS SINGING IT!
@@guinns.6424 Amen to that.

The song still gives me chills. RIP Judith.
Me, too!
So true. I think you and countless others, including me, experience the same thing whenever they hear this incredible song, performed by this superb band and phenomenal vocalist.
Amen & emotional 😊
Absolutey!!!!!!!!
The 60's and 70's was truly the golden age of mucic..
YOU ARE SO RIGHT
True , but then most of us who were teenagers then didn’t really believe we would make it to 30
No it wasn’t. 🙄 Every decade has their great songs!
except for disco
And the American cars also
RIP Judith. One of the greatest, most pure singers of the 60’s.
Gosh, she was pitch perfect, wasn't she, and such a pure, sweet voice. Sends chills through me this morning, as I just read now about her passin. RIP
Of all time
I only started to really enjoy what my parents enjoyed as they dated, went roller skating, worked and fell in love in Lethbridge Alberta in 1963 at a pharmacy counter where myndad drank egg creamed and fell hard for a Scottish lass who I migrated in 1948 to live on beautiful Alerts, Canada.
Miss you Mum and Dad
A 21 year old Judith Durham.
Just wonderful to see how she addresses the microphone. No ego, gimmicks, auto-tuning or pitch-correction software.
She just stood there with hands behind her back and belted it out. Absolutely fabulous! How times have changed.
Agreed entirely. Pure talent. I doubt that the version we're listening to was recorded like that however. I'd be very happy to be proved wrong.
We all know that no-one can live forever, but it still comes as a shock to lose such an immense talent, RIP Judith and thank you for the pleasure your music has given.
Yes one can live forever! God promised so ...in the coming symbolic Promised Land here on earth. Psalm 37:11
Anyone on film is immortal. I've got her best work playing as I write this note
As Cicero said 'The life of the dead is placed in the memory of the living'. As long as we remember her she will continue to live forever.
@@stephanx2384 And that we will certainly do.
She will always be remembered. Such a wonderful voice!
Quite possibly the most beautiful song ever recorded. Brings tears to my eyes every single time I listen to it. Judith Durham is a treasure.
YES
Loved hearing them Sunday morning. After breakfast with the Beatles. In my state lol
Ain't she something?
Agreed. Another You, along with Paul Stookey's rendition of Wedding Song. My favorites of all time.
Love the Guitar intro
I may be a 32 year old who loves metal, and black metal to boot. But The Seekers will forever be my favourite band because they remind me of my mum.
My Mum passed away yesterday aged 79, she loved the Seekers, we are an Australian family in Melbourne ( home of the seekers ). When this song came on the radio she would sing along! Going to play it her funeral.
Just Me hope the funeral went/goes well! A perfect song for a funeral. With deepest sympathy from England
Music will Always be the best way to express and feel emotions, I remember when I was about 11 years old, I grew up with the sixties music and I Always loved a "rougher" style of music, but when I first heared The Carnival Is Over from The Seekers it grabbed me by the throath and I was a fan for life!! (fyi, did Alice Cooper last october here in the Netherlands, loved it, completely different, which shows, there is NO style which can't be appealing).
I'm welling up here. my late father had this on eight track stereo in the car, early 80s.
Good for you. Music has that ability to bring back memories. This video brings me back to my childhood not only by the song but the video production just looks so 60s. Don't know why. The sound quality is fantastic.
Judith was such a beautiful lady and had a wonderful voice rest in peace beautiful lady
We'll never find another voice like yours Judith, never ever...
RIP
RIP Judith. An angelic voice and now an angel in heaven.
My generation, miss those years. Love this song. Still listening in 2024😊
Judith Durham has the most beautiful voice❤️
Yes. This lady really has a Captivating voice.
I have sound-to-color synesthesia, and she has the pinkest voice I've ever heard!
I couldn't agree more
@@shortybeck1948. That is so interesting. Do things like autotune have an effect on the color of a voice?
@@OP-1000 That's a good question! Autotune doesn't affect the color of a voice, but it can alter the colors of individual notes.
RIP Judith. Grace, kindness and a heavenly voice.
This woman sang so effortlessly yet she's among the best of the voices I've heard. Her voice is almost too good to be authentic, I'm very impressed with her and the guys, the memories of the music and the times are priceless.
We'll certainly never find another Judith Durham. God rest her beautiful voice and spirit.
RIP. She was jazz trained and made the transition into folk pop effortlessly
@@neilcampbell148 Well said.
I lost my wife of 40 years two weeks ago and I would always play this to her. I will never find another you
Sorry for your loss 😢
So sorry for your lose billy..I lost my husband 7 years ago last February and we.d been married 39 years. Its strange how some music triggers memories.. and I used to play to him YOU WON'T FIND ANOTHER FOOL LIKE ME.. lol.There are lots of 60s songs that reminds me of the happy times we was together...
You take care ..
Loss.
Sincere condolences mate, lost mine two years ago had dementia so most her over a number of years. Pyed this to her to : ) best of luck moving forward
What a lovely husband!
Judith's lovely voice not to mention a beauty that puts all of the Kardashians to shame. God I am thankful that the 60's were my teen years. Greatest music ever.
You and me both William; Judith's voice gives me tingles all over.
God certainly blessed her with perfect pitch and beauty.
Agreed
William Styers me too, we are truly the blessed generation for so many reasons.
They were mine too. Wonderful years and memories!
Lucky
God bless you Judith. Two years ago I sat holding my Mum's hand while this played at my Dad's funeral. Your voice gave us immense pleasure when I was growing up and immense comfort in difficult times. You'll never be forgotten x
Judith's voice did something to me when I was 8 years old and 60 years on it still pulls at my heart. There's something magical about her voice....what a life's joy.
I agree completely
I heard her before I met my love and wondered if I'd ever feel that way about anyone. And I did, and I was lucky that I was young. I'm 75 now and she's 76 and we're coming to the end, and neither of us will ever find another to replace us. Please have hope that it will happen for you.
I just said exactly the same thing to my wife and then saw your comment. I was 7 years old and I think Judith was my first crush!
@@buddyrichman I'm crushing on 1960's Judith from 2022.... :)
I felt like that about Cilla Black.
I could listen to this forever and never ever be tired of listening to it
It's July 2020 and this song is still an absolute joy to listen to. Judith Durham's voice is exquisite!
I can only subscribe to that! With my 66 years, this song still moves me! Simply good music (unfortunately) of the past. Greetings from Germany.
Didn't know who she was. She's very interesting. The face behind The voice...
I know, music is my fun thing to do! Loved all the songs! This virus is getting to me! I wear a mask, but how long is this gonna last?!
Agree 100%.
@@ruedigersens9888 Greetings back to Germany from a nearly 66 year-old in the USA! This music is a joy all over the world. My husband was stationed with the US Army in West Berlin, in the late 1970's. He had been in Germany with his Army dad years before. We loved it there.
Music like this doesn’t exist anymore
It's so sweet and innocent, Greg Mundo. Except it is timeless for those who will never find another you. Genius!
I think Frankie Valli is still making some new stuff with the four seasons, but your right. Music has irreversibly changed.
Come on! Finally, someone makes a sensible comment.
Nope
Greg Munro ..you are so right sir.
I am a heavy metal 68 year old rocker, and this song brings me to tears. Absolutely beautiful.
YES ! ! ! That's TRUE . . . and I'm a 52 years young Heavy Metal Fan from Germany !
I LOVE the VOICE and the MELODIES sooo much . . . a WONDERFUL BAND . . . ! ! !
as if being a rocker would somehow make you a tough guy. you wouldn't last 2 minutes on eastern european streets. just enjoy the song and be happy.
Yes can't argue with that.
45 in2020 same here. i was there when this came out and i've liked it ever since and i am much more of a hard rocker.
ME TO S MANY PRESCIOUS MEMORIES , I TEAR UP EVERYTIME I HEAR IT BECAUSE IT TAKES ME BACK TO SUCH A SPECIAL TIME OF INNOCENSCE AND HOPE, SIMPLY BEAUTIFUL!
My parents were married in 1964 when this came out. We are going to play it at their 60th anniversary this November!
This song is such a classic. RIP Judith Durham.
No stupid dancing, outfits or tattoos only pure talent on stage.
The golden age
that's because they're in a recording studio
There is nothing wrong with dancing, it just shows that people are enjoying themselves. Anyone can wear whatever they want, outfits and clothing styles are a personal decision to be made ONLY by the person wearing them. And tattoos are only your business if they're on your body. Don't behave like a bitter little boy.
@saintquinn007 and what's wrong with dyeing your hair? why shouldn't people take advantage of the technology they have available to them?
@@eienblack8570 I guess their point is these things have taken the place of talent. If all you have is a clown outfit and clown makeup, you're just a clown. If you want to be a clown that's okay like you say, but it does not equal talent. Most people these days are afraid of clowns, at any rate. It turns out they're a bunch of psychos.
Told my grandson to listen to the words of this song and if he felt this way about his girlfriend then he should marry her before it’s too late as his grandmother and I have been married 56 years and that’s how I feel about her
Dave Dunn so beautiful 😍 bless U all💜🧡💛
when I wake up I ask myself "am I better off with her or without her". the "with" wins, since the summer of 1965.
What a perfect thing to tell him.
I'm actually crying
dysfunctional families are actively encouraged by government pty ltds ans vatican pty ltd. no representation - no tax. see my station.
Just beautiful. No other words
50 years on and that woman’s voice still sends a shiver through me !
No gimmicks------- just pure talent
HERE, HERE !
no fireworks, fancy lights or dancers.
JUST TALENT
I miss this type of talent in music today.
There are a very few that fit perfectly
@@andreawatkins2125 it's not talent... it's being able to copy a famous tune and make all the money from it. back in the 60's the whole world was recycling each others tunes - this one is no exception.
@@agnidas5816 It's not talent !!!!! Watch something else then
my wife died in june 2020, she dedicated this song to me after 34 years of marriage,
we never played this song together,
at the funeral i heard this wonderful song,
which filled my (our) heart with love,
you never know how much you miss someone until they have gone,
and its songs like this amazing Judith Durham and the seekers who remind me of the wondeful times we had together
xoxo
So sorry for your loss x
Shouldn't have killed her then.
@@donlawn524 cancer killed my wife
@@terriclifton2462 thank you
that is so nice, a wonderful way to remember
Simply extraordinary
RIP Judith. Golden voice of The Seekers.Without her there is no Seekers
I am devastated to hear that Judith Durham has passed away 5th August 2022. I listen to her sing EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. The voice of an ANGEL, Rest In Peace lovely Judith 😥😭😭
@norman smithers yes indeed we can ☺️
Agree with all with you..🏴
It amazes me how many people continue to watch this in 2019. I love it. They were meant to be together. I could listen to her all day
I definitely come back to this a few times a year., and each time I listen to it about ten times in a row. One of the most beautiful songs ever recorded. It's like I can't wrap my head around it... It's too good. :)
runs deep.
It really doesn't get much better than this. Her voice is angelic.
Sherman Tank it’s still used on marriage encounter weekends ❤️
Amazing group
NO other group will ever have the uniqueness of the bands from the 60's. Simple and beautiful.
Such a shame many younger people will never hear this. This needs re releasing. Judiths vocals are exceptional
such a wonderful voice
ruclips.net/video/pBaO6ro1CUc/видео.html You MUST watch this. Then you will see why the song doesn't need re-releasing...
17 and loving this.
Young people are too lost on their stupid smart phones ,so sad ,so sad.Take care.
To the contrary, my 19-year-old granddaughter just loves The Seekers, and I send their songs to her, often! She is a student of music, (mostly viola, flute, ukelele and guitar), and she loves old songs of this era!
June 14 of 2023 my husband passed away to his home in Heaven. This song of the Seeker says it all. I cried through it but so true I'll never find another man like my Jimmy, my ditto man. Love you for as long as I live
I'm so sorry for your loss ❤
❤️
I’ve been in love with Judith all my life,don’t tell the wife! ❤️
Judith Durham probably had the purest voice ever. Her notes are perfect and her diction so clear and precise. It has been a privilege to hear her over the years since The Seekers started. :-)
Perfect song❤
Yes,she and the legendary Karen Carpenter!!!!
Goosebumps every time she hits the high note on the last chorus.
Pido, en primer lugar, perdón por no escribir en castellano. Soy de Catalunya (Spain). Opino también que Judith Durham tiene una voz extraordinaria. Además es también una gran pianista. Tiene una ventaja también. Los tres componentes restantes son excelentes. Y muy importante: el grupo ha sobrevivido cantando, mayoritariamente, folk. Esto ha sido muy difícil. Soy músico y me identifico con The Seekers. Además, si han continuado juntos tantos años es porqué también son personas que se cuidan, i al mismo tiempo han cultivado la amistad entre ellos. Muchas gracias.
Best singer ever❤️
My two favorite female voices of all time are Judith Durham's and Karen Carpenter's. Both are pure and excellent.
Mine are Alison Krauss and Crystal Gayle.
My exact picks! Karen Carpenter the perfect voice!
Don't forget Nana Mouskouri
I totally agree, Judith and Karen so right 🙏🌹
Both are my favorites too. Sad that they are both gone. 😢
This will probably get lost in the comments but my Nan adored the seekers back in the 60s. This June marked 7 years since she passed. Music is such a special thing. It takes you back and it brings back the great memories. This does the latter for me. I love you so much Nan and I’ll see you again ♥️
May your nanna's memory be a blessing.
So lovely you have those memories of your Nan loving their music. Now today we learn Judith has passed away. Voice of an Angel , I too listened to her sing in the 60's. RIP gorgeous Judith,❤
She was the voice of my childhood. So many happy times associated with their songs. I'm listening to them now on YT crying my eyes out because everyone I loved then are all gone. Music brings back so many memories.
Bless your Nan.
@Susan Dowe aw no I’ve been at work all day so I haven’t found this out. RIP to a beautiful angel ♥️
One of my very favorite recordings EVER. Her voice, the harmonies and the music and lyrics -- just a GREAT song. R.I.P. Judith Durham.
It outsold Help!, Yesterday, Satisfaction and Mr Tambourine Man back in 65. Judith's voice is captured forever. RIP 🥲
IM In sO tears. What a great voice “ dumstucken onthis she could lift any one soul !! Miss her deeply bless all we all Love You Judith”
@@watersidelapper6314 me, too. For our lost youth.
Listening 🎧 to this Song reminds me of A Very SPECIAL Lady that I feel In love 💕 💕💕💕💕 with back in the mid 80's ( The LAST part of the 80s 😭😭😭😭😭😭,. I still think of HER Today
I agree 👍
June 2024 ,who's listening to this song ? Well....I Do..
Yes indeed,and still find it so pleasurable to listen to.
What an incredible voice she had!
She did! Love hearing her singing. It's a shame she's passed away!
Yes she had and she made it look so easy
Susie quartro also died around same time
Suspect quatro is alive and kicking in fact she was on breakfast television yesterday
She is timeless.
Little woman. Huge voice. History has shown this to be a potent combination. RIP JUDITH!!
It's hard to believe isn't it. Grew up with them.
So pretty, wholesome and talented! RIP Judith.
Just like Edith Piaf in France
She was fantastic.
This is what real talent sounds like.
So true!
1 billion zillion percent %
I was born in 1981 but I don't understand why I still enjoy this song in 2024
I understand why you still enjoy the song after all these years. You have excellent taste in music. This is one of the greatest recordings in history. I was born in 1948 and this is my absolute all-time favorite. Why? Because I also have excellent taste in music. There hasn't been much of anything I like since about 1975 but I could listen to this every day dozens of times a day.
Tämä on vaan niin hyvä biisi olit sitten nuori tahi vanhempi - super great tune like our neighbour Abba does ( have done )
Because in any artform the chaff falls away while the best endures.
Why?
I forgot how well these guys harmonize and what an absolutely gorgeous voice Judith Durham had. Stunning.
