[@robertfencl4401]

I don't care what any one says, Danny Boy is one of the most beautiful songs in the English language. Sung exquisitely by Judith Durham.

[@jamestgarveyjr9955]

Bravo

[@katel975]

Here here. Danny Boy is definitely one of the most beautiful songs ever written. It’s been sung by many people but no one can EVER live up to the most beautiful, pure, expressive and heart-wrenching sound of the beautiful Judith Durham. I cry every time I hear her sing it, just can’t hold back the tears, how ever hard I try. Has anyone heard her singing “All Over The World “? Pure beauty and fantastic song.

[@wolfgangwittmann6255]

An amazing Song from an amazing Singer♥️

[@MonaLisa-lu8zi]

Only a class singer can sing Danny Boy, which Judith does, divinely.

[@danielmcgowan4970]

I cannot believe how 252 people have given this the thumbs down? This is such a beautiful song. Known, loved and sung worldwide. Judith's voice has just the right quality for it and she sings it so beautifully with love and passion. Shame on you, whoever you are.

A beautiful song given extra passion by one of the great singers of my lifetime , now sadly having left us

[@garycrandall8649]

I'm 66 years old. When I was a little boy, I had such a crush on her. Truely an angel.

[@josephbalitza6857]

She thought about being an opera singer. She thought about being a concert pianist. She became the artist of millions of fans. Listen to her sing every day! If you are in the right mood she could make you cry with her voice. What a talent!

[@jerometaperman7102]

Funny you should say that because I have often said that she is one of two singers whose voice alone can bring tears to my eyes, the other being Patsy Cline.

[@thetrippyhippie5882]

She makes me cry everytime i hear her since i first listen to her and now after she died even more. She and the guys are like the friends of every of us their funs.

I met her in a little place in Bradenton Fla and froze! I could not speak as I was starstruck,. I graciously walked out. She was my favorite person of all!

I can't agree more. Rare to hear it from a female singer. My next favorite would be Andy Williams. "I'm off to Dublin in the green, laddy."

Have a wee listen to Maureen Hegarty from Derry singing her version , I am sure you will be impressed also . Judith was one of the greatest voices of her day .

Try Deanna Durban's version from the film "Because of Him" opposite Charles Laughton in the 1940's. That one is my favorite.

My father in law used to like to sing this when drunk. He was at Dunkirk and Nimegen and was a paratrooper beyond the beyond. He gave my son his medals. In memory of Stan Macnamara. Please remember him.

As any professional singer will tell you this song is difficult to sing because of its wide range but Judith Durham with her remarkable talent makes it look effortless

No false vibrato no vocal acrobatics just pure honest interpretation of a beautiful song Judith Durham was and is the best female singer that ever was I miss her voice.

[@GlenStace]

'No vocal acrobatics.' That's perceptive and appreciated.

[@robertkrismeyer5783]

I have never been able to describe the style of so many Pop singers of today, but vocal acrobatics is an accurate description of their style of delivery. I really love to hear a singer like Judith and her pretty voice sing as the song should be sung.

Absolutely agree. Such a perfect performance can only come from her exceptional talent. Truly a gift from God.

[@Hakausu]

Yes, it is unique. She had measles as a child of 4 (in 1948) and was very sick. She had bronchiectasis as a result...a lifelong condition like people with cystic fibrosis have, but without the progressive damage of that disease. It left her with a chronic cough, which she has trained herself to control while singing. It also left her with lungs and breathing passages that gave wonderful power and unique timbre and vibrato. What could have been a tragedy turned into a gift for her and the world!

Peace be with you Judith: I'm 73 Irish/Dutch Canadian. The 1st song I ever heard and learned to sing and play on keys and strings was Danny Boy for my Scottish Grandmother. Other then performing King Crimson with my Les Paul Mansfield such as Epithet - the Sneekers and the Rankin Family made the music I loved. Judith's rendition of Danny Boy was always my favorite - God Bless Her - Ron

Her voice has that thing that reaches me in a way like no other.

[@johnb.2518]

Elton John, who knows a little something about music and singing, once said that Judith was one of the three best female singers ever (the other two being Eva Cassidy and Karen Carpenter) - absolutely nothing to argue with there...

[@alanmetcalfe831]

JD was better 👍

[@pippiperade4030]

Who else is 'out there' today who can sing like this..? Judith's voice makes my arm hairs stand on end..

[@michaelspring221]

Eva Cassidy, unfortunately deceased, but have a listen, you will love her.

She could make other things stand up if you think about it. Hey you left it wide open. I know I'm going to get some trouble over that sorry!

[@anthonywhitehouse8076]

What a voice I mean what a voice Judith had.Then add Danny boy and you have a match made in heaven.Rest in peace Judith you leave behind an amazing legacy.

[@harrylivesey3477]

judith such a beautiful voice...anybody who respects music as this..appreciates judiths voice

[@G6JPG]

I just love how - just after 1:40, and finally at 4:00 - she hits those top notes _without_ belting, but also with no sign of effort whatsoever.

[@spang9782]

Totally agree! With today's singers, so many of them literally scream the high notes and while they hit the note, it just sounds like yelling. But kids today love that! We need more singers like Durham to show the young ones what REAL singing is about.

[@davidpryle3935]

You’ve said it exactly right. I think that’s the difference between Judith and other great female singers. She doesn’t seem to have to put any effort into it, or at least that’s the way it comes across.

[@user-ci5qk4gn2c]

So beautiful,there will never be another Judith,forever in my heart.xx

[@harrytroy685]

Got to be the best version I've ever heard of this song. Sleep well beautiful Lady, with the voice of an Angel. We will miss you so.

[@carolbozek1625]

Thank you Judith for sharing you beautiful voice with us for so many years! Now you are with other angels 🙏🏽❤️😇💐

[@stc5238]

These people left us all a GREAT LEGACY. SADLY missed she will be. Thankyou Judith for your wonderful music. You now sing for 😇 Much love to YOU. REST IN PEACE. AMEN.

[@williamdonahue6617]

Judith is a star not only because her voice is beautiful-- though it certainly is. Her voice is distinctive. Before she sings three notes in a row, you instantly know it's her.

[@Cultureboy]

Rest in Peace Judith, may the angelic choir welcome you with song as you leave us your legacy of grace and music.

[@MarkRDespatis]

O M G This is the most beautiful rendition I have ever heard. It brought tears to my eyes. I have heard many artists sing this beautiful song, but never have I heard it sung so beautifully. Whoever put thumbs down have no heart, for it takes one with a soft heart to hear and appreciate how beautifully Judith sang this song.

[@susanwentzell2270]

Made me cry

[@stevescissors]

OMG.. This woman is unbelievable. She has a voice from heaven above. I love her more and more every time I hear her sing. I'd love to meet her someday. Just to tell her how she has touched my heart since a teenager. Judith is a TRUE singer.. A TRUE STAR! Thanks for such a wonderful post Denny.

[@pharaohsneferu5516]

+stevescissors Agree totally, an angel with the voice of an angel :-)

Speaking of pipes!

[@artistphx]

A remarkable singer!

[@edwardsomers3930]

if i was dead and buried and heard your voice from beneath the sod my heart would still rejoice.

[@ngahiwiapanui7392]

Aren't we all blessed to have such a wonderful singer in our lifetimes. As child I listened to her voice soar above the music in Never Find Another You, Georgy Girl and numerous others. Such a pleasure to discover this gem. Pupū ana te aroha.
