The Seekers - The Carnival Is Over (Australian Farewell Tour 2013 / Live)

[@harrysharp3838]

The carnival ended on 8/5/22, RIP Judith.

[@frankclements1431]

in 1965 I was 17. I'm now 74. I loved it then and love it now.

[@larryvermeer6170]

Good morning my friend I had a big crush Judith Durham to when i first seen her on Ed Sullivan Show to

[@annegarnier9542]

I’m crying. Her voice was heavenly. R.I.P. Judith. My dads favourite singer.

[@Glen.Danielsen]

Yah Ann, tears here too. 💛🙏🏽

[@sabyegrp]

Tears for sure. Loved them since the 60s

[@colinwebb1689]

Amazing it knows how to pull your heart strings I’m in tears also 😢

me too, me too

Yo también.

[@robinmatyjasek7390]

Not diminished by age, quite the opposite. Will never be equalled. Although she has moved on, her star still shines brightly and always will.

[@ton4347]

Let's get a million views for this special lady

[@thestones8022]

Judith's voice saved my life, In 1967 My mom was put in the hospital for a nervous breakdown; she had 4 boys in 5 years and my father was an ass, 2bkind, . My mother was committed to a mental hospital where they were frying her brain with shock treatments, I went to stay with an awful aunt while this was going on and I was in hell at 4 years old; I heard an angels voice coming through the radio and it was Judith's'. To this day folk music is the only thing that has kept me whistling and smiling, most of the time.... Thank you everyone Esp. Miss Judith Durham, love eternal...rip.

[@carlhorton6833]

They don't fry brains with shock treatments, it's called ECT (electro convulsive therapy) and they had/have great results with it, it offers people almost instantaneous relief from a whole range of depressive symptoms including catatonia. it's not in common usage, but where it is used, it gives a definite window of relief. Don't dismiss what you don't understand (and yes, I am qualified to make that statement, I am a qualified mental health professional)

[@WeeShoeyDugless]

​@@carlhorton6833 I rather think the chaps 'phrase' was probably based on his terrible memories of his youth and his lack of understanding of the procedure. Go easy.

[@petern3363]

I hope your mum made some kind of recovery. Best wishes.

[@JoeMunday-ov6es]

​@@carlhorton6833 perhaps you should go try it?

[@JoeMunday-ov6es]

What a lovely memory. I had this song played at my dear brothers ' funeral, and always remember him singing to this. We loved the Seekers too. Love and best wishes.

[@alexcrawfordguitar9361]

The Carnival truly is over now. Rest In Peace, Judith

[@jonhumble7199]

I am gobsmacked that Judith Durham's amazing voice would remain utterly unchanged after all those decades. Not a jot of wavering or loss of power or control ... and her vibrato as perfect as ever. The Seekers had a unique, harmonically rich and powerful sound for an acoustic folk band with minimal acoustic instruments.

[@philspence3093]

Just watched this after Judith’s passing. I am 64 years old a cried like a baby. The Carnival is indeed Over, but thank you for the glorious pure musical memories. Now, where are those tissues

[@davidarkinian2393]

U can say hello to her in heaven!

I am 62, and although I love all music old and new I never heard much of the Seekers. Now I can't get enough of them. Better late than never as a fan I say.

One of australian icons has died this weekend. We in Holland will miss you Judith. R.I.P. You gave us joy with your songs.

[@whatwouldiknow1759]

Later that evening Judith complained of a headache and was rushed to hospital. She'd had a stroke. This was May 14 and forced the Farewell tour back months. She recovered eventually & resumed the tour. What an amazing performer!

[@simonramsay6080]

Robert Stevens I read that it was a brain haemorrhage that she had, not an actual stroke?

[@bassoprimo]

@@simonramsay6080 Thats a stroke, a Haemorrhagic Stroke.

What an amazing woman. To come back from that and still perform with that angelic voice is otherworldly. God bless you Judith Dunham and thank you for what you’ve given to all us who adore you ! ❤️🙏🏻

[@sunnytneoh3126]

As a 13 year I sang this song in a choir. I ll never forget her voice

It’s amazing that they have lost none of their greatness through this many decades. Judith Dunham’s voice is still as beautiful as ever. Absolutely one of music’s all-time greatest groups !

[@LordFlashheart.11]

One of the Best female singers ever. Well up there along with Dusty, Aretha and so on. Great group and they enjoyed every moment together. RIP Judith.

[@johnschuh8616]

She seems to have had a happier life than poor Dusty. May their all rest in peace.

[@LordFlashheart.11]

@John Schuh yes she does, always looked full of happiness. Dusty was a troubled soul. RIP to all of them

[@barryh.4220]

I could cry listening to this a couple of days after she's gone ..... what a phenomenal singer she truly was.

[@betweenevenings]

I’m sat here becoming quite emotional watching this. Grew up in the sixties and remember watching their farewell concert when they broke up. I think this is my favourite song of theirs and it took me back. I still have a tear and lump in my throat as I write this. I became a singer songwriter and am going to try and play this a little later. It’s a wonder ours love song 🔥🔥😁👍❤️

[@georgeolson3996]

I recorded the farewell concert broadcast from the back and white Phillip's TV in Perth West Australia. I took the monaural recording with me to university in Duluth Minnesota. There were nights that I feel asleep to those voices and then awoke to the sound of the motor and the whisper of the end of tape slapping.

[@splod44]

I have seen grown men cry when listening to this song wonderment

[@stephaniebarr507]

Breathtakingly beautiful. Bravo to the greatest folk/pop group in the world. We will never see the likes of you again sadly. Go and enjoy a well earned rest

[@larryconnolly1008]

She was and will always be my favourite singer, with her voice like a angel,she is simply the best.

Not a note out of place. Recording studio ready at all times. NO one else, with these decades behind them, can hold a candle to their quality. When we finally lose her, we will have lost a global treasure and the world of music will suffer greatly for it.

I used to think I was the only one to think this ,lol !

[@j.c.b6473]

Amen.

[@ClassCiv]

As a child in the 1960s I remember the Seekers mainly because my mother loved Judith Durham's remarkably distinctive and pristine voice and raved about her back then. Her sound is thus a powerfully evocative memory of my mother who died in 2016. My youngest sister, born in 1966, chanced upon this song one day recently (in 2022) and could not understand why it had such an impact on her - too young to remember it properly, but it had gone deep down inside without her realizing. She had to ask me why.

[@johnritter5951]

If Christians are correct in believing there will be a Final Judgment in which we all give an account of what we've done/not done with our talents and gifts, the Seekers will have nothing to apologize for in all their years of singing...and so very much for which the angels themselves will sing their "Amen." Such grace, goodness and beauty they have given us.
