Judith Durham, the lead singer, had a fabulous voice, and she moved to a career in jazz singing, which she loved, after she left The Seekers. Judith suffered from a chronic lung condition that she had since being a young child. Eventually she died from it this year. What a trooper she was! You must hear the group sing, "I Am Australian". Even Americans do the patriotic hand on the heart to this one!

As a proud Australian to inform you this “ little cute group” knocked both The Beatles and Elvis Presley off the number one spot on the music charts when they toured England and performed in front of the largest audience in Australia of 200,000 people on n their return. Check out “ i am Australian” “ Georgie Girl” “ Rge Carnival is Over” You won’t be dissected, actually surprised you have not heard of them, the lead singer Judith Durham was awarded the Order Of Australian and sadly passed away a month or two ago. “ The Carnival is Over “

I'm so glad you two have found the Seekers. If you care to dive in for a bit longer reaction, check out their performances of their biggest hit, 'Georgy Girl.' plus the iconic 'Waltzing Matilda' and what many feel should be the Aussie's national anthem, 'I Am Australian,' written by group member Bruce Woodley. They sang the three songs at the 1994 national football final in Melbourne, 30 years after this video you've just watched. Judith never lost her voice, even well into her 70s. It's an 11-minute video but I promise you'll love it, and you'll feel like an Aussie yourselves by the time it's over. Please keep up your fun reactions! Thanks.

Although it's difficult for those who weren't there to believe, for a short time during late 1965 and early 1966 the popularity of this singing quartet from Australia was sufficient to rival the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. The Seekers were at the head of the British Invasion's acoustic folk-rock division, right there with Peter & Gordon and Chad & Jeremy and more successful than either -- they scored a string of number one hits in England and Top Ten successes in the U.S. that lasted into 1967, two years later than most of the rest of the British exports to America. You must play their biggest hit GEORGY GIRL and Oscar nominated. The Seekers were the most successful group, at the time to come out of Australia. In a chance meeting years later, Maurice Gibb ran into Judith Durham and told her that the Bee Gees had tried desperately to get her group to record MASSACHUSETTS which the Bee Gees then took to great success.

Greetings ladies from across the pond 😊🇬🇧 I’ve just found your channel having stumbled on your reaction to Georgy Girl, loved it. There are so many great songs to chose from with The Seekers, check out The Carnival Is Over, Island If Dreams, A World Of Our Own to name a few. They were around a little before my time (I showed up in ‘71?lol) but my parents were into them and I do recall them playing albums from The Seekers when my brother and I were very young, in particular The Seekers recorded a beautiful children’s song called Morningtown Ride which is beautiful, I’d I’ve to see you react to that because an abiding memory from when we were little was mom playing that to send us off to sleep 😊

The seekers were a very good folk/pop band from Australia. In fact, I think they were the first Australian group that had success here in the United States. "I'll Never Find Another You" was their very first top 10 hit and an excellent song. You both said you would like to hear other songs from them. I have the perfect suggestion. Please react to The Seekers "Georgy Girl". It is my favorite song from them and it was also their biggest hit. "Georgy Girl" is such a happy, feel-good song. I think you will both love it.

The Seekers in their heyday shared the pop charts in Britain with both the Beatles and the Rolling Stones, often displacing them for the number one spot in the the top fourty hit parade for that week. Later in their career one of the band penned the song "I am Australian" which is now a popular unofficial Australian anthem. The Seekers reformed in the early 2000s and played that at the AFL Grand Final at the MCG in Melbourne Australia. This is one of the prime sporting events in the world and boasts about 100,000 spectators at the stadium. At the height of their success they played to a crowd of over 200,000 people at an outdoor concert in Australia, which I believe is still a record concert crowd for the Southern hemisphere.

The amazing thing about the Seekers is that after breaking up many years ago, they got together and were singing together 50 years later...and they sounded just as good. This song was written especially for them by Tom Springfield, the older brother of Dusty Springfield, who was also a fabulous singer. The Seekers are most familiar to Americans for "Georgy Girl", but they sounded fabulous no matter what song they sung.

Judith was tiny with a powerful voice and a lovely vibrato although it is not as obvious here as in some of their songs. Good vibrato is not terribly common and a gift. They did many great songs, "Plaisir D'Amour", "Georgy Girl", "The Carnival is Over", "Morningtown Train", etc. Massachusetts written by the Bee Gees was written for them but for some reason their manager never got it to them. BIG mistake!. When Maurice Gibb died The Seekers did a lovely version of "Massachusetts" as a tribute. The 60's were amazing for music. I was so lucky to be a teen then.

Judith had the most beautiful & unique voice. She could sing Folk, Pop & Opera with equal quality & Beauty. She had so much pain & suffering throughout her life. She suffered from Meningitis which kept her from performing for more than 10 years. While she was recovering, she was involved in a terrible car accident which also almost ended her life, which is why she had to sit in most of her performances after returning to her career. There are so many wonderful songs the Seekers sang & one of their best & in my opinion the greatest Australian Anthem ever written, I Am Australian. Others are, Morningtown Ride, My Lord What A Morning, The Carnival Is Over, A World Of Our Own etc. So, so many.

Alternatively, you could check out his amazing whistling abilities, on such classics as 'The Mexican whistler', or 'Elizabethan serenade'! He retired from performing only a little while ago, as he's now in his 80's, & he deserves a rest! The guy's been around forever!!

Ladies. Search for, “The Seekers,1994 AFL grand final.” They are older and standing in the middle of the football stadium in front of 100,000 people are singing four absolutely beautiful songs. This includes the smash hit, “Georgie Girl,” and a song that you couldn’t help be moved by. As Australians we want it as our national anthem. It’s called, “I am Australian, it is seriously beautiful.

Judith Durham was 20 years old here. The Seekers had hit the big time, and Judith rang her mother in Australia and told her she may not be home for some time......

The Seekers were making hits around the time of Peter, Paul and Mary right up to the last few years. They were big in the UK as well as here in Australia. This clip is in remarkable condition seeing it is 58 years old. 👍🤗

Lucky that this recreation of the 1964 recording session was made in 1968 of professional standard film. This was done for a TV special/documentary that had huge ratings when shown in Australia in 1968. The whole near hour long show is on KZbin, so the print or negative survived in good condition. Unlike reused video tape that deteriorated with age and was much lower resolution than the best film until about the nineties.

My favorite of theirs is The Carnival is Over, so beautiful, plus their song Emerald City, video shows clips of Oz, sung to a Beethoven tune, I believe ❤️

One of THE greatest songs of all time ..... what an outstanding singer Judith Durham was, what a voice! This will always be my favourite Seekers song because it was the song that REALLY brought them to the attention of the music loving world.

This song was written by Tom Springfield, brother of Dusty Springfield who was a big star in the UK (and had hits in the US and Australia). He also wrote The Carnival is Over, another big hit for The Seekers, based on an old Russian folk song. The Seekers were virtually unknown when they left Australia working as entertainers on a ship to the UK. This song gave them almost instant celebrity. Try The Carnival is Over, Georgy Girl or I am Australian. They were still doing gigs, playing and singing beautifully, until Judith's sad passing within a week of Olivia's death.

This was being recorded at the Abbey Road Studio in London. They started out in australia, worked their passage on a cruise ship, spent a few years in the UK. had a number of hits, like Georgie Girl, and Morningtown Ride. Came home and Judith Durham quit, her anxiety got to her. They got back together later on. Judith was tiny, a Pocket Rocket, who could drown them out easily.

Another great reaction. I think you've had a great idea to have two generations introducing music to one another as well as sharing hearing new music for the first time. As something a bit different, may I suggest Misty Mountains by Peter Hollens and Tim Foust. There are no instruments, just human voices. I've not seen or heard anyone react to this other than in astonished enjoyment, including me.😊😊

This song was number one in England, knocked the Beatles off number one on the charts, reach number four in the US. Check out another of their hits, "Georgie girl," number one in England number two in the US, was the title song from a movie and nominated for Academy Award for best song of the year.

Thank you very much for this. As has been said, the harmonies are first class and Judith Durham (RIP) had a great voice. The Seekers were big in the UK, but I have no idea if they were as successful in the USA. If they weren't that might explain why mum hadn't heard the song before. Some songs just bring back memories and areal sense of the time when they were current. For me, this is one of those songs. I can just "smell" that time from this song. And I should mention that all instruments used were acoustic. Acoustic guitars and a double bass. And yet a very full sound was achieved. Thanks again for reviewing this song.
