Memories of my youth growing up in Australia when they were popular and I was a young teen.Love them always.
Filmed in 1967. The Opera House was opened in 1973. Someday, one day indeed!
beautiful..almost brings a tear to my eye...Judith's lead vocal is unearthly.
Let's get a million views for this special lady
"People say you're a Dreamer...what do they know of, what you're thinking"? Perfect lyric at 1:05 with Judith singing solo those words with the visionary Joern Utzon sail design backdrop!!! This song one of my many favourite Seeker songs. Bravo to them!
In the US I didn't realize how many hits they really had. I recall American radio playing Georgie Girl and maybe two others. I am stunned by all this great music.
Judith had the most spectacular female voice I’ve ever heard! I’m 66 years of age! Bernie Western Australia
Absolutely brilliant sound! Thanks for posting. Glad The Seekers survived their walk around a major building site in 1967!
Magnificent song. Not surprised to hear he wrote it.
I don't know whose idea it was to shoot this while the Sydney Opera House was still under construction, but what a brilliant and memorable video!
This song is absolutely splendid and I don't remember hearing it over the airwaves.
If only The Seekers had accepted the invitation to perform Georgie Girl at the 39th Academy Awards on April 10, 1967.
Countless millions would have seen them for the first time and definitely wanted more.
The timing was perfect because the song had peaked on the charts on February 1st at #1, but Americans hadn't yet got the chance to see this group on their televisions.
Nobody in America knew what they looked like.
Thousands of American men would have been captivated by the beauty of Judith Durham and many would have pursued her romantically.
And the other missed opportunity was when the Bee Gees wrote the song Massachusetts expressly for The Seekers and their manager turned down the offer without ever telling the group about it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The members of the group found this out only years later.
So many songwriters would have written songs for them once they got exposure in the American market.
The Seekers were not able to perform Georgy Girl at the 39th Annual Academy Awards ceremony on April 10, 1967 because the group were contracted to perform a pantomime in Bristol England on that date.
Lousy instincts were playing themselves out at the time by their manager Eddie Jarrett.
He was too UK-centric in his approach to managing The Seekers.
This was one of the big breaks they were sorely in need of at the time.
Recording the song Massachusetts at that time would have been another tremendous shot in the arm.
It is not clear who may have been approached by the Bee Gees to have the Seekers record Massachusetts.
We may never know the exact details as to why the Seekers themselves didn't find out about this until years later.
In retrospect, their manager has been acknowledged as being far too "U.K. centric" when promoting the group and arranging tours for them.
The U.S. market was just waiting for an early and proper introduction.
God knows there were countless millions of Americans who wanted a clean alternative to the mostly psychedelic rubbish that was being shoved down their throats at the time.
Brillant Group
One of my FAVORITE music recordings from The Seeker's!
Soothing to the souls .Thanks the seekers
Love this song
In the 60s the Seekers were considered uncool but despite this they notched up many chart successes including a couple of number ones. They transcended cool and Judith's vocals have an effortless quality. I wish her a full recovery from her recent illness.
Beautifull song loved it then still love it now
Song written by Paul Simon. Sounds nothing like his typical of the time, but maybe it's just because the Seekers were performing it. And wonderfully, I might add.
paul simon wrote the song specifically for the seekers,they said this themselves.
brilliant - wandering round the opera house, how iconic.
Sorry, but you can't call it HD just because you've saved the grainy SD footage in an HD format - it doesn't work like that.
Hi Sara - will do! 😅
@@sarasarah1810 Here's my new upload of the song, in stereo & HQ (not HD!) 👍

Far better than any opera.
Прекрасная песня, большое спасибо!
Judith with Clark Kent : they are wonderful !!
The building of the Sydney Opera house
and the beautiful Manly ferry Dee Why steaming past from 0:23-0:45. She was taken out of service in 1968.
My favourites are this song and Georgy girl
The Seekers are still going strong: ua-cam.com/video/eCLWWTsWdME/v-deo.html
LOL at 0:16 The director really needed to offer more direction than "Try to, uh, look like you're...doing something, I guess. Put your leg up, that always looks self-assured. We'll stitch it together in post, don't worry."
Her voice is amazing, but those guys are so underrated. Her solo efforts were not as good without them.
It was a "serendipitous" combination of voices amongst the four of them. :-)
I would agree with you ...... the incredible voice of Judith Durham made her the undoubted star of the group, but the guys played their part too .... the superb blend of voices made this group so popular with their millions of adoring fans.
Paul Simon wrote this song.
I know that this film is from 1966/1967 is that were the Sydney Opera House is now could someone confirm this to me please
Yes. And a place they would perform at and sell out decades later.

@1:48 they dont cut this back then
like
NO BOOTS, NO HELMET, NO SINGING!!!!
Lousy sound. Is there a better version?
This song in a nutshell shows everything the west has lost in the last fifty years.
In a nutshell, you have just hit the nail on the head. Well said!
You got it!
"what we have lost in the last fifty years" : a perfect comment - I totally agree with you. We've definitively lost style, class and harmony - this all after the '68 revolution!
