Her singing voice is an absolute miracle....

Anyone born with ears and has had the privilege of hearing Judith Durham sing can be certain that at least one very large good apple has fallen on their side of the fence!.

So beautiful Rlp judith

Judith Durham is an angel sent to earth. She was born to sing. Really never been any singer with her perfect pitch and awesome singing. She is absolutely the best and just stunning. RIP dear Judith. Your songs and singing will continue forever.

Judith is a lesson to future female singers.. This is how it's done to last the years of time.

I'm 59 and I went through punk rock and pink Floyd and prog rock🎸📀gothic ,new wave and Heavy metal etc.But this group are brilliant.Tjetes not a weakness there in the Seekers.👍♥️💋🥵.

I think this is the song that brought out their harmonies out the most beautiful and well balanced

Haven' t commented on here for a number of years but just want to say thanks to Rich for keeping the music of perhaps the most beautiful sounding band in the world alive. It is impossible for me to say how much I feel about the sound of The Seekers and in particular the voice of Judith Durham. I was about 11 or so (born 1953), when The Seekers first made their appearance on British radio, and I have been intoxicated with their music ever since. I always wanted to marry a Judith Durham type woman, never happened, got Cruella de Vil instead, !!.. Imagine just waking up to "Mornin Town Ride" every morning sung by by Judith herself. There is something about this lady that defies normal emotional behaviour from a 67 year old, but that's me. When I die I want to hear Judith singing to me as I pass from this world into the next. God bless you Judith and The Seekers, you have made a silly old git happy for over 60 years.

A voice so pure, so soaring, so beautiful it brings tears . . . and in every song they've rationed her solos so carefully you can never quite get enough . . . Gladys Knight's is incredibly expressive and for years I'd thought her voice was the finest I'd heard until I started listening to the Seekers again . . . I'd forgotten how special Judith Durham's singing was/is, and how powerfully uplifting it can be. My opinion only of course.

Gladys Knight is good and I agree with Mr Hogg. But Judith is in another league. If you want a voice that is close to a relegation position go no further than Diana Ross. Thin and reedy doesn't do it justice. The costumes try hard to put you off the lack of power in her delivery

I can't believe she's gone ..... what a superb singer.

In the 1960’s I was in love with a girl at work, who never knew this. We were friends but nothing more. This song reminds me of her to this day and a flame still burns. She married someone else and I was history. Hey ho, such is life ❤️

My all-time favourite Seekers song--from the moment Judith's beautiful ❤️ voice begins and the guys wonderful harmonies--still love it after 54 yrs

Gives me butterflies. They are incredible ❤❤

Judith passed away. last friday. R.I.P.

What an amazing voice Judith has, her voice gives you chills makes you feel good..

Such a beautiful harmony and talented bunch. I heard this song in 2009 while working at a nursing home and one of the oldies there had this song on a CD, and immediately fell in love with this song. She knew i liked this song and that lovely grandma used to play it for me everytime I was there to see her. One of my good memories.

Love her dress! Beautiful. Always a dress for Judith.

Not only does this lady Judith Durham have the purest, most beautiful voice I have ever heard in my life but her talent for singing is also unmatched by anyone. As many other people have said her singing touches the heart and soul like no other. Those three lads that make up The Seekers are excellent musicians in their own right but Judith’s singing is just so wonderful that she seems to me to be divine. A gift from god!.

When I get to Heaven one of the things that I will do is attend a concert featuring only Judith Durham, Karen Carpenter & Whitney Houston. Angels can sing backup…

I was only born in the mid sixties so this is slightly before my time. But oh how wonderful they were. Musical purity. What voices, what chemistry. And I have to confess there’s something about the lovely Atholl Guy that makes a middle aged woman’s heart skip a beat or two! 😊

Life goes so quickly fly safely singing with angels and kicking butt

We miss Judith but heaven gains an angel ❤

The Seekers could record "Row, row, row your boat" yet, with Judith's cut-crystal soprano leading the way, such a simple song would become pure gold!

I miss this kind of talent today!!! The world would be a better place listening to really good musical talent.

We have heard great female pop singers with powerful and beautiful voices, such as Linda Ronstadt, Agnetha Faltskog (Abba), Karen Carpenter, Ann Wilson (Heart), Carole King, Olivia Newton-John, and others. But no one seems to be able to do what Judith Durham was able to do with her vocal power, pitch, purity, poise, resonance, range, emotion, grace, gentleness, simplicity, effortless delivery, transcendent, heavenly sublime tonal quality, and overall luminous stage presence. Judith left her listeners awestruck with every performance. The angelic wings of her voice allowed the audience to soar with her to the deepest blue of heaven's skies. Truly missed, inimitable, and irreplaceable.

What a fantastic voice Judith Durham has ... this group were such a class act

Yet another absolute gem from the increedible Seekers ... this group undoubtedly was pure gold.

Judith has a beautiful bell-tinged voice.

This is my favorite song by them. She really does look like an angel when shes on stage swaying back and forth in such a angelic dress.

Sensational

Such a pleasure to listen to them. Remarkably, they're even better today than they were back in the 1960's!

Omg judiths voice, the beautiful music of the seekers , real music👌👌

when i was very small my parents would listen to this song and the seekers all the time in the car and they could never work out why i would randomly start crying whenever this song came on....i'd stop crying as soon as it would finish- even at the tender age of 1 i realised the sadness and beauty of this song!! but i just cant stop listening to it :D fabulous fabulous fabulous!!!!!

Still remember every word 50 years later♥️

So few people realise that the harmonies and instrumental work from the boys brings it all together. As a soloist there are many other sopranos who can do similar to her. The whole band comes together and that's what makes it.

Never heard this before!

Beautiful,melodies,great talent

I love many artists and groups from old Motown, medium rock, some soft rock, some folk, some disco, some country, some Gospel, some pop, notice I left out rap, but The Seekers are and will remain my all time, absolute favorite group. This is me, from the US, where I only heard the four songs that played here and never saw them, even in a picture, or new there names, at the time. Great, unique harmony, from Judith and the boys, but Judith has the most mesmerizing, charming, home feeling, if you will, voice I have ever heard. Everybody else, I have heard cover it, makes a mess out of Georgie Girl.

How is possible to get enough of such a sound? At least musically, these guys are made to be together. What beautiful harmonies! How moving is Judith's voice as she leads. Outside of the Seekers, where does one go in the world of popular music, to hear such beautiful singing delivered by such lovely people.

Many have tried to characterize Judith's voice, including myself. The description from rabele123 is wonderful. The qualities of her voice are difficult to put into words. It seems that all her vocals are very resonant and have a ringing /chiming quality. I've never heard better.

What a beautiful voice 💓💓

The chorus of this song gives me goosebumps; Judith's voice stirs the romantic part of my heart and soul. I may not be a rich man, but had the good Lord blessed me with Judith, I would surely have hoped that we would have be blessed us with children also. But, I trust in this case, HE knew exactly road Judith was to travel, bringing good news, inspiration, encouragement, and joy to the ears, heart, and soul of those who were and are fortunate enough to hear her melodius angelic voice and see that wonderful smile on her face. She owns every note and every word that flows deep from her heart. If she can't put a song in your heart, and tune you will whistle, hum, or sing afterward, then some soul searching may be needed. Thank God for blessing this world with Judith, and the Seekers.

Judith is the only person ever , that,s voice is a musical instrument !

The reasons for Judith's attraction is all in her honesty. She's not up there in a PVC 2 piece like Miley Circus, she's there with her hair like a winter willow, she's dressed to the toe in refulgent silk, she isn't afraid to show those teeth when smiling, & even her body language tells us "Enjoy yourselves" - The way she sways & swings on stage like a celestial bell. She's 1 in 100 billion. Maybe 1 is born every 100 years? If that? We are truly lucky to witness magic like this over & over.

this is a great showing ,that whether live or not they sound just as good,fabulous
