      The songs of the seekers and her singing is over 50 yrs old but there are still many people who hear and loves both. Can we say this from the modern "singers", too, in 50 yrs...? I dont think so. Thats a real and eternal legacy these band and Judith gave us.

      This is only a suggestion, and I don't think ANYONE could replicate the abfab voice of Judith and The Seekers,; but do you think Susan Boyle would do a favourable rendition of The Carnival Is Over? I really would love to see and hear Susan sing this thought-provoking song; wouldn't you? They both - Judith and Susan - have the 'same sort of singing voice'; don't they? If you, or anyone has any idea how to make this happen, please let me know.

    My husband passed some six years ago and this particular song brought us comfort when he learnt his illness was incurable. We often played it as we sat cuddled in together. We both wanted the world to stop revolving but that was sheer fantasy and wishful thinking. We were blessed with four more months together and I cannot say how often we played this song. Of course, I still miss my husband more than words can express, however, I have my memories and this beautiful song. To those out there who have lost a loved one, I send you love and prayers and for those deeply in love, I ask that you remember to tell one another how much you really do love them.

      I sat my children on my lap and now my grandchildren and in a croaky deep voice, while jiggling them up and down to get the vibrato going singing, 'Wandering Star'; my daughter tells me she does it now also and I think it may be something that continues on. Just like with your dad, the happy memories of favourite songs truly keeps us going; this was probably one of the first Albums which we purchased as a family and I am still captured by their performances. I can't remember the name of the Album but just like the song goes, Everyone's a Winner.

      What superb harmony they all made!.
      I'm a still working, still travelling, still blowing, still jazzing, old git of a sax player, and she still touches all the right buttons for me. Think she was a jazz singer at heart & possibly returned to jazz when the Pop Well ran dry.
      Not to put too fine a point on it, I'd shave off my beard for Judith.
      Bet she hasn't aged a month since then even if I am close to 128 yrs old..

    This was played at my dad's funeral who had a lifetime career in showbusiness. RIP, the carnival is over.

    This song is just perfect. I will never forget the day I first heard this song.... it became my funeral song within a second of hearing it
