    Judith's vocal and piano playing is outstanding, not many singers chose to perform in this manner anymore, that's why Judith will be a lady for the history books.

    One from the heart.......Judith's heart! This beautiful song was penned by her many years before she actually recorded it. If anything, it gives an insight as to her feelings when she was at the height of her fame with The Seekers in the 60's. At that time, in spite of all the adulation and attention she was getting in the UK, she was terribly homesick and missed her parents and family back in Australia. Her fleeting visits back home during those heady days only highlighted the wrench when it came to leaving them all behind again and this beautifully puts those feelings into words about the pain of parting. A beautiful woman with a loving heart!

    I believe this was her 60th birthday concert. In the DVD she dithered over her reading glasses just like any of my friends around that age. Great rendition from one of the world's best voices.

      I live in the same country and state as Judith. Will love her always most dearly and believe her voice was as good as anyone. But if I may suggest you have a listen to Sissel Kyrkjebo, I believe she has taken over the mantle.

    It's hard to leave you all behind
    Those loving smiles so sweet and kind
    I love you all, you're part of me
    With you I leave the heart of me
    It's hard to go, but now's the time
    With loving arms I intertwine
    There will be times I miss you so
    It's hard to leave, but I must go
    I won't look back along the way
    It only makes me want to stay
    With every step I'm sure I'll find
    A different loved one on my mind
    Without my friends here by my side
    My destiny will be my guide
    There will be times I miss you so
    It's hard to leave, but I must go
    It's hard to leave the ones you love
    Though other stars may shine above
    But I can hope within my song
    That after all it won't be long
    But it is now I feel the pain
    I may not see you all again
    There will be times I miss you so
    It's hard to leave but I must go
    It's hard to leave but I must go

    This is a fantastic song and one of my all time favorites... it was written by Judith. I sent a letter to Judith asking about where to purchase the score or sheet music for this song and she replied that one was never made..... I hope she changes her mind as this song may be lost in time and it is too beautiful a song for that to happen...
