This is my favorite song and the presentation by Judith Durham is the icing on the cake. In my 93rd year, I almost always end the day listening to this rendition, although her later recordings are also great.
A wonderful rendition of a simple but superbly beautiful song. An elementary school teacher in the 1950s taught us this song and hearing this once more after almost 65 years brought back happy memories of my schoolboy years at F. Balagtas Elem. Sch. at Sta. Cruz, Manila, Philippines. Thanks for posting, you're marvelous.
Judith will always be beautiful. Her voice is as strong and pitch-perfect today as it was when The Seekers first stormed the world of music. Whenever I see or hear her, I fall deeply in love again and again, in the nicest possible way, of course. Top of admiration.
See the English Wikipedia articles on "A Perfect Day (song)" and its author/composer Carrie Jacobs-Bond (1862-1946). And thanks, Denny161853, for re-posting Judith Durham's stunning rendition of this Jacobs-Bond song. It is, IMHO, the best.
Doggon right she knows how to finish! She has always had the beginning and middle taken care of too, on every song she ever did. So much soul in such a small, lovely package. To me she is a genuine, one of a kind, world class treasure.
So wonderful. Tears in my eyes for such a lovely song sung by this angel. God bless you Judith and a speedy recovery. Thank you so much for posting. Brian Jacobi. New Zealand
From Judith's 1970 TV special 'Meet Judith Durham'. I recorded it by sneaking a DV recorder into the National TV archive in London - here's the complete HQ version: @
This really does show off that fabulously clear voice and her ability to touch those notes with silky precision, You are very special Judith, God bless and keep you.
I just watched Ethel and Ernest and I learnt this song exists, this woman's voice is SO BEAUTIFUL. Is she the original singer? Even if she's not, I like this version a LOT, her voice is so clear and beautiful.
She has the kind of total beauty that is almost impossible to describe. I would even say that if she were blonde it would not be the same thing. Her dark hair and eyes provide a sense of "cozyness" to her incredible beauty which is rewarding to the senses. Almost any man gets touched by her.
Thomas Kallmyrför 1 sekund sedanFantastic Voice of Judith Durham,and Three men and they have been together so long,like a Family should be.....mostly there are Divorcing and in Berlin,who many is still after one year together after marriage,of 66 pairs only ONE PAIR still together.....
A most beautiful song in what I consider to be the best rendition of the original version. I usually respect other people´s taste and choice of music, but it´s beyond me how anyone can dislike any song done by lovely Judith Durham. I wonder why she never recorded this gem of a song. It would´ve sold billions. If i´m wrong please inform me on where I can find such a recording. Bless you all.
August 7, 2022. Judith died two days ago. She came to the end of a perfect life. God speed.
That heavenly voice didn't originate on this planet.
Judith Durham... what more can one say??!!
Beautiful woman Soar and sing with the angels.
A treasure...for the whole world... thank you judith....
The Voice...the most beautiful Voice.
What an absolutely stunning young woman....would have given anything to marry her
Ron Edgeworth was one lucky guy.
The. Most beautiful singing you’ll ever hear! Judith Durham has the.most beautiful!
Precision sounding voice you will ever hear on UA-cam!
I just played this for my husband of fifty years today. We are in lockdown but it has been a perfect day! God is good.
For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.john 3:16
Judith has now left us and passed on but her superb once in a lifetime angelic voice will live on forever...
I know it has been said before, but Judith Durham has the voice of an Angel. Since I was a boy in the Sixties, I have always had a crush on her.
Great taste! Great lady.
Judith Durham sang this so incredibly beautifully that she made me cry. Her version is beyond sweet, it's absolutely Heavenly!
R.I.P Judith
Beautiful song. We are heartbroken, now singing with the Angels
The perfect day happened when I first listened to you, Judith
RIP Judith
May Judith, with her Golden Voice, be with us forever! Never leave us Judith. You do us all proud, but are Australia's Ambassador.

I hope you are still listening William.
Perfect lady with a perfect voice. Judith is drop-dead gorgeous.
Have you seen her lately? She's 77 years old and has aged like a fine wine. She's lovely.
Yep, still in love with this incredible lady. Funny, but theres not many women around now I can use the term lady with!
She has the most beautiful human voice ever.

My great grandmother sang this song in the 1930s at a bridal shower. It was so nice to hear Judith sing this beautiful version.
Beautiful lady beautiful voice

A proud Australian. Judith resonates charm and charisma like no other. Best wishes to her.
I was privileged to see the Seekers perform at the Civic Theatre in Johannesburg about 50 years ago. They haven't lost their sparkle.
I'm still in love with this outstanding 😍 woman - a voice like an 😇 angel - love you ❤ Judith!!!
Amazing as always....
What a beautiful lady. I’m forever fascinated with her. She was truly wonderful. In our hearts forever. ❤
I have loved this song for 80 years and no one does it better than Judith Durham.

A one off totally,never to be matched.....and such a lovely person too.
A voice of an angel.

PERFECTION . No one can sing like judith , she is always pitch perfect total class.
Beautiful job by a lovely lady!!!!
These old songs often mention "chimes ringing out". That's something we don't hear too much any more.
Such a beautiful lady with a beautiful voice, and more importantly, a beautiful heart.
Stunning in all respects. SHE'S LOVELY!!!!!!

Dear Judith, you have legions who do anything for you.
Styles, times, the cast may change, but the Fathers Love remains the same. Alawys, Love Bill.

Beautiful woman. Beautiful voice. Beautiful soul.
WONDERFUL Judith Durham. Tears in my eyes. Thank you so much for posting. Brian NZ
What a glorious example of a fine woman.
She makes my didgeridoo sound like a didgeridont.
Her flowing locks a beautiful dark auburn.
Her body weight perfection.
Her eyes crystal pools.
Her voice angelic.
For she is indeed the stuff dreams are made of.
Dear Judith ,
the Lord has made you with the utmost attention to detail.
Marvelous craftsmanship!

Beautiful song, golden voice, alarming haircuts!
Get Well Lovely Judith... We will be looking to see you on stage again soon.. Sir David
there's something about the look of the 70s .. that was just.. over the top, I guess every decade had it's look tho lol
Besides Andy Williams - May Each Day....I Love this song too Judith Durham - When You Come To The End Of A Perfect Day...
A voice from heaven!
Die mooiste stem
Shows how beautiful her voice is.
voice of an angel, i love her
Judith Durham is only and only one female singer that she put cloth during singing.i like her singing style.
God Your Judith is perfection
Michael Brandt : I bought Judith Durham's Platinum cd from Amazon. com just recently. Very good album. Tim in Midland, Texas
Oh Judith, my angel.
real beauty pure talent
A performer in a million. A real role model in talent and personality
I just watched Ethel and Ernest and I learnt this song exists, this woman's voice is SO BEAUTIFUL. Is she the original singer? Even if she's not, I like this version a LOT, her voice is so clear and beautiful.
The start is a bit cheesy, but the singing - just lovely. Such a pretty girl with a beautiful voice.
You never cease to amaze
Thanks again Judith.
Beautiful wanna voice I don’t think you could sing a wrong note 🎼🎶🎶🎶🥰🇬🇧
Nagyon szeretem őt!
The Great Judith!
Vocal perfection.

The most beautifuil female ever.

great song and singing, love this :))
Kangaroos, wallabies, cockatoos, platypuses and didgeridoos,
none can compare to the loveliness of the end of day with Dear Judith.
+Bill Bright The plural of platypus is platypi. You can never have two Judith Durhams!
I love her voice always
So very beautiful she is
Judith would have made a wonderful mother as well.

Judith Durham recorded it on the Platinum Album 2013, I hope this helps you, with kind regards Denny
Thanks for the info, Denny. Next problem is to find the Platinum album 2013.
Best voice since Edith Piaf
john.
Edith Piaf sings like she is chewing frogs in her mouth and one stuck in her throat!
this is Judith's song!
Perfect Day- Soaring Singer.
I miss you Gran - Love Michelle ♡
For some reason I started singing this to myself, and thought I’d go to Google to see the rest of the words.
