- The Seekers perform The Carnival is over at the Sydney 2000 Paralympic
closing ceremony on 29 October 2000.
Judith had slipped on her kitchen floor and broken her hip and had to sit in a wheelchair.
Until now their last tv performance of this song that touches so many peoples hearts.
Rest in peace dear Judith Durham, 5th August 2022. Your voice and music has brought such happiness to so many thousands of people for so many years. My childhood was enriched with The Seekers records often played in our home, something I did for my children and grandchildren as part of music in their lives.
I agree,I'm 78 years "young",I can remember them singing their lovely music in the early Sixties!!!, infact I have some of their records(45 RPM) in my collection!!! They are, in my opinion , one of the best (if not the best)singing group that has ever sung music!!! Nov. 26,2022.
❤❤❤❤❤
She had the clearest voice I have ever heard. Absolutely fantastic
I have loved this beautiful woman since I was a teenager. She has the greatest voice I have ever heard. Thank God for Judith. ❤️🌹❤️
She's one of a kind
Very true, Patricia.... I think you, me, and millions of others...
Beautifully put Patricia.Judith is an Aussie treasure
Rip beautiful lady you can sing with angels Judith thanks for the wonderful memories.
Absolutely beautiful thank for your music 🎶 and the memories ❤to each and every one of you love happiness and peace❤rip judith
I remember this occasion so well. Everybody around my wife & I were singing, many with tears (including me). Loved the Seekers since the eary 60's & Kudith remains my favourite singer of all time. The voice of an angel. I will love her till the day I die. RIP beautiful lady 😢🌹
This lovely lady with the incredible beauty and voice is the product of this best country in the world, R.I.P
This has been my favourite Seekers song since I was a child in the 1960s, and still the case. Always brings a lump to my throat with Judith's beautiful clear voice.
DITTO !! I have always known the Seekers (Morningtown Ride was a childhood favourite!) but this song is an eternal classic - the voice, the melody and the words bring life to a perfect conclusion. xx

I was a Teenager and I love this Song so very much
Here here , always brings tears to my eyes to hear her voice - a true performer and what a fitting song to close such an event- she really lifts the heart- in fact, it soars
My Eyes Leak too
Fiona Johnston, I came here to listen to Judith's rendition of the song she first sang so many years earlier when I found she had passed away on 5 August 2022.
Her voice is still crystal clear and strong. Her voice touches my soul and makes my spirit soar. Goodbye Judith. Thank you for all the wonderful songs. May you continue to sing in the better place you have left us for.
The guys are great, but Judith is a true gift! What a pure voice.
What a beautiful lady with a sensational voice. God bless you Judith.
Let's give a million views for this special lady
A voice of an Angel !!!! Rest in Peace beautiful one !!!!
RIP Judith, beautiful voice.
Only one Judith Durham. Voice of an Angel. Perfect.
The finest, purest female singing voice in my time. Wonderful, the Carnival will never be over Judith.
The only female voice I've heard that I'd compare to Judith is Anita Carter, but sadly Anita never really broke away from her Carter Family/Johnny Cash back up role. If she'd have recorded more mainstream music, I think she would have been every bit as successful and well known as Judith, and being American, perhaps even more widely known. The two most angelic voices I've heard.
You are so right L. Im American but Ive never heard a better voice than Judiths. She outshines them all, and I mean all. She is to female singers what Roy Orbison was to male singers. None better.
I was thinking, oh and I agree!, Karen Carpenter also has that perfect voice, just not as powerful huh

But she foolish ending her life
Eart´s Carnival will be soon over. More and more people and also non-Christians feel the same.
Judith, you have the voice of an angel, so loving Kindness.
So proud to be an Aussie,and love this awesome Aussie group.
Dear Judith, I learned to love your angelic voice not so long time ago. I was a little girl when I listened to some of The Seekers's songs. I speak Spanish and didn't know anything about English, but I loved these songs. Now, I do know English and enjoy most these music. I feel extremely sad for Judith's loss. And as some say, now you are an angel and singing so beautifully in Heaven. I will always love you.
A very gifted singer with a very powerful voice and lovely band mates love them
Judith's voice is one of the best soprano voices that contemprary music has ever had.
As a young lad in the 60s I was in love with Judith...Just live thousands of others. Its great to know she is still performing and as well as ever. Beautiful voice. This is to take nothing away from the 3 lads. They complement her so well. There version of 500 miles still sends shivers down my spine. Good on you Seekers and Australia
I find it so profound that Dusty sang, "Goin Back", which became her eulogy & Judith sang lead on,"The Carnival is Over" which will, doubtless, become hers. Both vocally-gifted and hugely influential singers, role models and great women; without Dusty, there'd arguably be no, "The Carnival is Over" and, without Judith's interpretation of Tom Springfield's beautiful ballad, we wouldn't have this heart-breaking rendition by which to remember and miss Judith. 💔😔💖💖
Outstanding performance
On my way home on the train after an awful day in the office. What a beautiful and moving song. Tears in my eyes. God's gift to the world. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
RIP Dear Judith Durham in Heaven forever and ever RIP with angels and Jesus Christ
RIP Judith
The voice of an angel on earth now a member of that Heavenly Choir.Sing on Judith
Judith - your allegiance to God has brought you through so many tragedies - and yet your radiant face and voice shine through with the glory of God. The whole world loves you. Thanks be to God for loaning the world your beautiful Judith Durham. And thank you, Judith for persevering and singing for us yet another song. The boys are a beautiful complement that complete the mission of The Seekers who lead to God’s pure heart.
Australia has lost two wonderful voices that are now in Heavens Choir. Judith Durham and Olivia Newton-John. RIP lovely ladies. Thank God we have your music that will live on forever. Love and Prayers from Canada 🇨🇦❤🙏🕊🌹🌹
From 'down under', thanks Kimberly. ♥We Aussies were extremely proud of Judith and the boys' success overseas. And to lose Olivia 4 days later was a hell of a shock. Loved her too. Just hope the boys hang on. Can't bear to lose them too. I was in love with Judith at a very young age. I had to compete with all the other boys in my class though...lol. "She's mine!", "No, she's mine...." Such was the impact she had on we young lads...the beautiful girl next door. So Aussie she was, yet so classy a singer/musician. We already know how good Keith, Bruce, and Athol were...well they still are.
Great singers, great people and a GREAT country
The most beautiful singing voice i have ever heard
Wonderful
Rest in peace Judith I will love you till the day I will die amen,God bless you,💖🌈🌸🙏😘🌹
I am from the US. The Seekers are Australia national treasure.
Judith still has that perfect angelic voice........ wow
Once again I have enjoyed Judith & fellow Seekers beyond my vocabulary to dictate. She was so incredible. I am grateful to have lived to hear Judith.
This has got to be one of the best songs ever.
Yes -- beautiful Russian folk melody and great Springfield lyrics.
What a beautifull ending of the Paralympics having the seekers there singing for people from other countries to get a chance to hear them again too
What a beautiful voice never forgotten
"The show MUST go on". What a truly great professional she is.
What a group !!!........What a Lady Sing with the Angels Judith.
.It sadden me to learn of your passing. It is so very sad and heart broken to know you no longer with us. I have been your fan (from Brunei ) since I hard this song when i was in school and ever sibce bought your 45RPM records...followed by CDs. Its only last months I have been listening your hit songs in youtube....and now you are gone...it breaks my heart that this beautiful carnival is ovwer....although you have suffered so much pain in your life but your angelic voice still remain the same as when you are young.Your features have not changed much and I can see the face of a young Judith....now God have you in his keeping but all of us Fans have you in our memory and in our herart...Good bye and may you rest in peace with the angels....good bye.

Judith has the most angelic voice i have ever heard . My era of music the best i have ever heard .
I spent a lot of time listening to this fabulous group of musicians. Timeless music, R.I.P. Judith Durham.
Judith is amazing and so is the power of God I have witnessed this personally the last few weeks Judith like me has true faith and absolute unquestioning faith in God. God is Love...
So humble to hear these comments about Judy she is awesome.

Beautiful. God bless you Judith forever and forever we will love you!
this song should be the closing of every Paralympics ceremony too
Through all these years, Judith Durham and the Seekers have exalted and praised God no matter the circumstance. Considering how contemporaries have faltered in serving themselves, it is quite refreshing to be reassured that what really matters in the end endures the test of time. As we are reminded that we are best measured in times of strife, then certainly the adversities described only serve to magnify that these seekers measure up quite well. Indeed these Seekers have succeeded in their search! It is no wonder that the heart-warming music of Judith Durham and the Seekers will persevere forever in bringing joy and inspiration to people like me, through UA-cam or whatever lies ahead. Thank you so much!
And there never will be again; She's a GEM!!
Judif .
Your the best and always will be.
I grew up with your songs .
I am. 57 and my new wife is 63 and we both love your vice Richard
Totally different class, back in the day it was said that the Seekers and Roy Orbison were the best live performers, the Beatles and Stones were at their best then. Say No More other than SUPERB!!!!
God bless Judith and her 'boys' Judith is simply breath taking and an Angel here on earth I pray that they all continue to be blessed and have continued good health to be able to tour again I so want to see them in the United Kingdom. Love xxx
Judith has been through so much. A bad car crash, losing her husband , broken hip and a brain haemorrhage etc. but can still be positive and sing like an angel.
kevin heming
OMD Judith best voice ever.
.....and now 13 years after this Judith is recovering from a brain haemmorhage which she had after The Seekers 50th Anniversary concert in Melbourne on 14th May - she is still currently in rehabilitation having to relearn so many things - she is unable to read, write, including music, play the piano, but she can still sing - Bless Judith - she is Australian's greatest female singer and an absolute sweetheart - The Seekers are Aussie's great group - so down to earth. Love you guys
but she did recover
GOD BLESS HER
Amazing, beautiful, breath taking. God bless you Judith and The Seekers!
Absolutely gorgeous 💕💕💕
The lady is magnificent
Wow, she is just the best, as are the rest of the group.
Thank you, Judith, Athol, Bruce and Keith.
So sad that Judith's Carnival is now Over :-(
Rest in Peace Judith ..your songs will live on ..❤
This is one of my many favourites, a wonderful song, using a Russian hymn tune, always brings tears to my eyes when Judith Durham sings
a Russian hymn tune, really, didn't know, tell me more, or perhaps reply with u/t example, thanks
@@daedster1 ua-cam.com/video/CKZJddUnZY4/v-deo.html
@@theslytod what's that to do with a Russian tune? Good to hear again though
@@daedster1 same melody
There have been many incredibly beautiful real female voices but none i can think of had the singles cha
t successes of Judith and the Seekers. I think Sandy Denny almost accidentally charted for a week in 1969 although her albums did chart. However a popular singer with 4a real voice is very rare.
This is so sad to see, she still had that wonderful voice R.I.P dear judith
Breath taking just breath taking and I'm a SWEET FAN
Beautiful she has a voice very wonderful
This song always makes me cry.
Judith's voice was beautiful.
Simply a beautiful voice thank you R.I.P.
Judith Durham ... My first Love as a young teenager, will always love you Judith!
Judith got me through puberty
your voice is still so beautiful...Thankyou all for all the wonderful music!~
Yes! Beautiful!😍🙆😚

Love The Seekers music.. hug :D
Butiful voice her voice will live forever
I was sitting way up their left hand side closest end to them when they sang this. Awesome event and damn that stadium could pack some peeps in.
It sounded good through the speaker system they had there though don't really get to see the singers that well when up near the back.
Immediate tears. Where did they come from? . Kylie Minogue said she was honoured to have pushed Judith on stage. She sure got that right.
Greetings from ireland I'm listening to Judith the carnaval is over tears in my eyes , I grew up with the seekers music and still loving it today 23 Oct 23 8.30pm
