    I wish she had been honoured as Dame Judith Durham. Her early formal training gave great strength to her voice. Her personality was projected in the clarity and warmth of the tones.

    EXCELLENT. I knew Judith many years ago, I was only three or four, but my mothers best friend Ruth was the Aunt of another member of The Seekers. They often rehearsed in a bungalow at the rear of Ruth’s house, and I’d gatecrash😂 They were so talented and Judith had very strong ideas about how she wanted to sound and be presented, and I really admired that my whole life. Omg you’ve covered sooooo much! A lot of people don’t know about her post-Seekers career. This will make so many people cheer. It’s wonderful hearing such positive stuff too. (And I still think the Seekers’ We Are Australian should be our national anthem.) Thank you so much for this beautiful video🤗

    Her voice was really something else. And of course I loved her as so many did.

    She is such a thrill to listen to and the type of voice we may never hear again!! I had been listening to her often on the ship I was on in Vietnam in 1967-68 because I had her performances on a small reel to reel tape recorder and she made the nights full of hope and positive thoughts. Her and Karen Carpenter were truly gifted and made millions of people happy~!!! Great Job on Her Story and it's very much appreciated~!!

      "I Am Australian" by The Seekers was not the original version of the song but was a cover by The Seekers. The original song was released by Bruce Woodley one his 1987 double album "Roaring Days/I Am Australian" with his daughter Claire on supporting vocals.

      @@angelamary9493 I think I'd agree with you that most punk was crap - but _as music_ , it probably wasn't any _more_ so than the crap music of other decades, (Mind you, I think of it as late '70s rather than '60s. Yes, I would say punk was definitely not '60s.) The real thing about punk was its background: it was a rebellion, especially against some of the "manufactured" pop of the time (and general rebellion of "yoof" at the time): it wasn't so much that it was rubbish, as the fact that its proponents _knew_ it was rubbish, and didn't _care_ .
      (Gracious me: over most of my life, if you'd told me I'd ever be defending punk rock, I'd not have believed you! And I'm not really defending it now: I just understand what was going _on_ then better than I did then. But I think it's irrelevant to this thread anyway, as I don't think it was '60s.)

    To be brutally honest, I hated the Seekers in the 60s. They were so "square" as we used to say back then, but always seemed to be somewhere around the top of the charts. I never knew any of their followers although I'm sure there must have been a lot of closet fans that I did know, just that they were probably too embarrassed to admit it. 🤐😂
