The Seekers - When The Stars Begin To Fall

The World Of The Seekers 1968

[@frankscivier4874]

I would be prepared to bet everything I own that in the entire history of humanity on earth there has never been a voice as beautiful as that of Judith Durham. Thank god for Judith & KZbin for allowing us to hear her sing so many of her recordings.

[@chainsawkillers]

The Seekers heard The Weavers version of this song and it was the first song they ever performed together. RIP Ronnie Gilbert The Weavers lead singer who passed at 88. Here's hoping Judith Durham has an equally long life and we are blessed with her astonishing voice for many years to come.

[@billstonesmith9231]

Not only did she beautifully hit the high note, but blended it in perfectly w/the tempo of the song -- May God Bless Judith and the Seekers --

[@sunwheel01]

This utterly beautiful sound is produced by two acoustic guitars, a double bass and 4 voices. If there is anything today that compares to this for quality and pure magic, I have not heard it. These guys are unique!

[@dennisgreathouse3027]

Just can't get enough of the Seekers. Just wish I could go back in time to when that's all you could hear.

[@gribwitch]

Them and the Beatles.

[@chainsawkillers]

For nearly seven decades the best voice in the world.

[@frederickcoots2289]

What a beautiful song by the Seekers. Judith Durham is truly heaven sent. My Mom loved this song by Judith many years ago. I still love it, and I play it often.

[@SaskiaCornell]

The voice of an angel and the boys harmonies make this group Australia's greatest Australian group of all time 50 years celebrations coming up

[@meechangtuie9625]

Only come to know this group a month ago and o my what a wonderful voice and lady. God bless them

[@peternicholson233]

one of my younger friends said Ugh not in HD. I said be thankful there is a recording.

[@megajankiel]

She is beautiful as an Angel and sings like an Angel I love this Band since 1967.

[@xmzzzzzmx]

Judith at her most gorgeous. Lovely!

[@rydabent]

This must be what angels sound like. What a voice!

[@dandydon2541]

What a truly magnificent voice--one of the best ever. She also is beautiful!! No wonder I have so many Seekers songs bookmarked!!

[@MrHolzheim]

I'm 66 now, and my musical interest started in the late 50's, as I sit here and listen to this, I have to say that I cannot think of a female singer with a purer and clearer voice. I could listen to her all day and night. (sigh)

[@sanetbutler4346]

What an incredible voice, what an amazing time to be a teenager. We were privileged to have grown-up in this era. We had real talented boys and girls entertaining us back then, Role models. Loved The Seekers and Judith Durham. Wow, wow, wow.

[@daniel.ostridgeostridge9709]

Brilliant song. The words to the song brilliant. Very outstanding performance. I bet the atmosphere was brilliant thair. Lovely voice lovely music. ♥️🌹💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐

[@stewartfenton7660]

You're right about the atmosphere. I may be wrong, but I think they would often start a show with this. Just imagine it , or maybe you've been lucky enough to have been there. They come on stage to cheers and clapping and whistles, and wait for it to die down just a little bit. Then straight into this song without saying a word, and the magic starts to the sound of that clear, bewitching voice. I wish so much I'd seen them when I had the chance.

[@ADonovan43]

The celebrity stars are created by the media, the worlds real heroes created themselves.The Seekers created themselves their star is still very bright. Take care ADonovan43

[@alexbain1823]

Lord, thank you for Judith and the Seekers and fond memories past.

[@2dogdon]

This is a voice for the ages. Loved her in the 60's and still do. Listen most every day

[@hemmay]

Me too. Exactly the same.

[@peternicholson233]

I was 5 this was recorded. I am now 55, and mesmerised by this. Thanks for making this possible.

[@libertyann439]

Never saw them in concert but it's wonderful to enjoy all this great music.🎶

[@EDDIEWALLIS]

Folk/pop music harmony singing simply doesn't get any better than this! Perfect harmonies by all 4 members of the Seekers, the magical voice of Judith Durham added on top - nobody has ever topped this version - heaven sent from the stars (no puns intended)

[@rydabent]

This my friends is real music. I have this song and others of the Seekers bookmarked because it is so great.

[@owendureke5148]

She's a nice looking lady. Everyone must agree.

[@siempre33]

I think I read that this was the very first video The Seekers made.... one of my favorites.....I just teared-up while watching...

[@frederickcoots2289]

I still like Judith Durham singing "When The Stars Begin to Fall". We are having meteor showers in the skies above Cocoa Beach. Many happy days sweet Judith.

[@glenhenning9261]

Wow, Wow, wow! Thank you Australia for bringing us the Seeker's! And when she hit that high note!!! Omg!

[@wallabybob12]

The seekers are, and will always be our National Treasure, you could take your children to their concerts, because they were about good honest principles in life.

[@KenthGustafsson300]

This is why I love the 60's...(born -61)

[@Saxy64]

Judith you were (and are) one of the prettiest girls in all history. Your voice is one of the loveliest.

[@thunderstrook1]

the best group ever , pure refection from all four of them, i was born in 66 and yet i still cannot find anything close to this amazing group.

[@applepie238]

i dont say lord what a morning,i say LORD WHAT A VOICE,xxx.

[@richardbarr8766]

When i was young i fell in love with folk music. My peers laughed and went their own ways musically. I am glad i stuck with folk or i may never have come to appreciate the seekers.

[@jubrukeat]

Wonderful. Angelic voice, and Judith is like an Angel. My favorite group.

[@wilkee41]

I'm 73 & still can remember the hay days of the Seeker.

[@LivesofBrian]

My dad would play this on his old record player when I was a kid. And there I was, oblivious of the outstanding beauty behind the voice!

[@mikeoreilley3816]

Beautiful, wonderful, inspirational. I never get tired of hearing Judith Durham and the Seekers perform this song. Actually, never weary of hearing Judith sing anything.

[@meechangtuie9625]

Mike O'Reilley me too.

[@micklow4160]

I've listened to Judith since the 60's. What a wonderful voice and a credit to her country. I was lucky to see her live in Glasgow. God bless you.

[@markyy54]

I have loved the seekers since I was a young boy in the 60"s and of course Judith durham best female singer I have ever heard and the best group then and now...….USA/UK

[@tasman763]

They were my first music......I was 5 . And I will never, for the rest of my life, forget . Thankyou Judith, thankyou guys. ( and this is from a Kiwi ) .

[@markpeacock2787]

My tears are falling. What a beautiful song!

[@Guitardiv2]

A little woman with a fantastic voice and good musicians, at the time I was more to the slightly harder genre, but as the years have passed, I can certainly see it now that I could not then .... real good. :)

[@jubrukeat]

My absolute favorite band

[@57AlleyCat]

I'm not a religious person,but this song is one of the best Seekers ever

[@frederickgreen3665]

Someone once said that when Judith sings, the angels stop and listen. I agree.

[@peternicholson233]

what a load of shit

[@markjones6710]

@@peternicholson233 what an intelligent comment (not)

[@samcashmooney]

When i first saw this I thought it looks like they are on the ship to England especially as they are so young and there appears to be another busy room next door. This is a spectacular live performance and when a group is as good live as in a studio you know they are very good. I agree the harmonies and Judith's voice make one amazing performance. I love this recording - thanks so much for sharing it.

[@dick12235]

Judith: A voice from Heaven. Thanks.

[@philippankhurst6680]

The finest female voice of the 20th century, surely .....

[@graemeappleby2352]

My lord what an angelic voice...

[@davidcroft2883]

I can't stop listening to this song, and every time I do the tears are still flowing.

[@paulallison2412]

Simply awesome! Close harmony at its very best. Not just ''that note'', but the boys packing a punch with strong base driving it throughout. Modern music doesn't come close!!

[@glenhenning9261]

OMG I,m in tears! So beautiful! Thank you Seekers!

[@frederickcoots2289]

I continue to watch and listen to Judith sing "When The Stars Begin To Fall". She and her singing are like magnets, drawing me back. I hope she will continue with her performances. I try to memorize all her songs. She will always remain in my mind and heart. We all love you Judith.

[@frederickcoots2289]

Some times I look skyward on a clear night looking for a falling star. When I do, I immediately think of Judith and this song. Always be happy, dear Judith.

[@johnk2495]

Oh my... make sure you listen to the song all the way to the end. The high note soon after 2:29 is divine.

[@collette333]

EXCEPTIONAL TALENT...PERFECT HARMONY.

[@sliat1981]

i get cold shivers when i hear this

[@danielostridge600]

Lovely song when the stars begin to fall brilliant song fantastic band God bless judith Durham. Love this lady voice very outstanding performance by the seekers brilliant song 💖🌹🌹🌹💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐

[@christyhotchkiss7193]

LOVED THIS SONG when I was a teenager

[@leerebel72]

Great song/hymn. Beautiful voice. One of the best I have every heard. Sure inspires.

[@rydabent]

What a fantastic voice. I remember them from the 60s. Everyone should pray that Judith has a full recovery so this kind of music can continue.

[@sexyboricua6671]

Love the seeker can't get enough of them

[@callum1651]

She's beautiful

[@TheAlantamsh]

angel's voice

[@northsideshawty3487]

Молодец, девушка. Красиво спела,от души.

[@macvatu]

Greatest Aussies? . . . I just love 'em !!

[@henryquenin6580]

One of the best voices of the 60s, in my opinion.

[@bel1086]

+Henry Quenin -- And in the 70's, 80's. 90'90's- Oh hell just forever, my hair or whats left of it also stands up on her high notes

[@gaerlan1946]

+Bruce Levenick I was just about to comment same. Thank you. Hers is forever. I get goose bumps (chicken skin in Hawaii) listening to this angel.

[@hategreed1]

It's the best voice to be heard in 2016, as well! By far!

[@krynitskytf2998]

One of the best voices ever!!!

[@chainsawkillers]

The best voice in the world going on seven decades.

[@poohbearrichie]

I have this as my text alert needless to say I have to listen to the whole song before I answer my texts :) Gosh when Judith hits that high note! Wow what a beauty and what a voice beautiful soul xxx

[@gregbuckenara8063]

One of IF not the Greatest female singers of ALL time.A nd in my humble opinion we as Australians are PROUD to call Judith OURS.

[@stevenprice4988]

Judith durham was absoloute fabulous then and she still is absolutely fabulous now in 2021

[@leerebel72]

Beautiful voice...perfect

[@chainsawkillers]

Judith Durham purity of voice, heart and intentions !

[@wmden1]

Musically, nothing better on this planet. Goose bumps all over. Almost more than I can stand.

[@NeilEClement]

Judith Durham is among the finest singers of the twentieth century. Or any century.

[@wmden1]

In my 59 years, I have listened to a lot of good music; Gospel quartets, Old Motown, Pop, Folk, Rock, Disco, Country. Some favorites are; The Four Tops, The Fifth Dimension, Marty Robbins, The Bee Gees and many others. Most were heavily produced. To me, none are better than The Seekers and this simple, but extreme quality performance.

[@henryquenin6580]

A sweet voice with range, clarity, purity, marvelous articulation, and power. No one in her generation could belt it out like she could when she wanted to. Every note is dead on. And to think that she was also the best musician in the group with her talent on the piano. The Seekers are much beloved of their fans and for good reason.

[@johnschuh8616]

As told, she first sat with the boys and immediately was able to blend her voice with theirs. Now THAT is a gift.

[@paulharrison5026]

A beautiful voice and here Judith is even as beautiful as her voice. Why was she under rated for so long as a beauty.

[@janepang484]

THE SEEKERS💖👸🕺👬🌟🤩 Great!🎼🎵🎹🎸🎻🎤📀👍👏 From Hong Kong🙋‍♀️🌏💝🌺🥰

[@rydabent]

Beautiful woman, and a beautiful voice.

[@frederickgreen3665]

Judith: beauty, class, talent.

[@oswaldwellman7806]

When I saw this wonderful group 45 years ago, I didn't realise how privileged I was. I can't think of any group that had such universal appeal. I love that unexpected high note. It's like a beautiful shooting star.

[@OldCorpsEd]

THIS was music, with Judith's voice soaring!

[@oswaldwellman7806]

+OldCorpsEd . The hairs stand up when she hits those high notes.

[@bel1086]

+OldCorpsEd Fell in love with them in early 60's and still love to just lay back in my lounger and play an hour or two along with a few sips of Glenmorange Scotch. Just me and Judith and her 3 "big brothers"

[@frederickcoots2289]

This number is walking around heaven music.

[@SamTheodore64]

This is my favorite music video... ever: Judith's voice and face singing it brings peace and joy to everything.

[@juliedutton2584]

SIMPLY MAGICAL

[@white69rabbitt]

Folk music at its best,great time to grow up.

[@patkenyon6556]

white69rabbitt I sing folk because every time I sing people go OR FOLK

[@CB-xr1eg]

When I sing they shout folk orfe, or something similar!

[@aileenlightbody91]

The voice of heaven.

[@dobavenger]

I agree, the Seekers, particularly Judith lovely and angelic voice is so appealing and soothing to the senses.

[@soniabishop7529]

What a beautiful voice...gives me goosebumps :-)

[@savedbyjesusblood]

2:32 - what an awesome high note. And she can still hit that note today. :)

[@G6JPG]

What's just as amazing is that she seems to hit it with no effort whatsoever!

[@darrel10005]

Absolutely incomparable! This woman has an awesome talent!

[@63DW89A]

I've never been a fan of Gospel and usually avoid it. That being understood, there are two groups I will gladly listen to for hours singing Gospel, The Seekers and the Carter Family. For much the same reason: superb instrumentals, superb harmonies and unique style and sound. Judith's voice is as beautiful as I've ever heard; she never misses a note and she is superbly backed in harmonies and instrumentals by Athol, Keith and Bruce. Sara Carter's voice is not as beautiful as Judith's, but she never misses a note, and that world weary voice rings with such authenticity that it grabs you by the ears and won't let go! Sara is likewise superbly backed in harmonies by A.P. and Maybelle. The sheer beauty of Maybelle's guitar and Sara's auto harp can take your breath away at times! If there were ever two groups whose music, style and talent were absolutely timeless it is the Seekers and the Carter Family.

[@Richpete001]

I had forgotten how good The Seekers and Judith Durham actually sounded

[@softclay4thought]

Our souls are the sails good music fills and transports us through time. The songs performed by this group do that for me time and time again. The only group from the 60's currently touring with their original members from when their first #1 hit was reached in early 65. They formed in 1962. This is a record that probably will never be broken. Their last performances on their current and probably final tour will be in New Zealand in November. I hope they will continue to record in the studio when their creative energies dictate, but I wish to thank them all personally for the special gift their music has been in my life.

[@loosewheels1000]

With regard to the Seekers touring again, never say 'Never' !!! who would have thought when we heard them in the 60's that 50 years later they would still be touring the world to full houses !!

[@bristolbred]

wow !!!!!!!

[@fionajohnston5206]

Amen to that!

[@frederickcoots2289]

I'm still inspired each time I hear "When The Stars Begin To Fall". Judith has caused a living miracle within me whenever she sings. I hope she will continue to perform after November, 2014. She has become a permanent vocal and visual image in my brain. I wish her well. We all love you dearly, sweet Judith.

[@hejsanii5769]

Beautiful voice! :) Love this band

[@charlesbarry6730]

Reminds me of my youth.

[@imusfan48]

OMG! What a song!

[@ton4347]

Let's get a million views for this special lady

[@rdvqc]

I have been listening to this song since it was first released. Always I wait for Judith to go for that big note near the end. A generation later came a group called the Rankin Family out of Cape Breton, NS, Canada. There were 3 amazing female voices but especially there was Raylene Rankin. On a song "Rise Again" Raylene goes for a nails a note that reminds me of Judith all those years before. If you like Judith, you will find some room for the Rankin girls (well ... ladies now)
