Their 60s hits included: "I'll Never Find Another You", "A World of Our Own" , "The Carnival is Over" (which the Seekers sung at various closing ceremonies in Australia, including Expo '88 and the Paralympics), "Someday One Day", "Walk With Me", "Morningtown Ride", and "When Will The Good Apples Fall". Their tune "Georgy Girl" in particular served as the title song of the film of the same name. These songs have had significant airplay on 'oldies' radio stations over the years.
Bruce Woodley and The Rain, The Park and Other Things's "I Am Australian", which has been recorded by The Seekers, and by singer Judith Durham with Russell Hitchcock and Mandauway Yunupingu, has become an unofficial Australian anthem.
I'll Never Find Another You
The Seekers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They call the promised land
And I'll be there someday
If you could hold my hand
I still need you there beside me
No matter what I do
For I know I'll never find another you
For each of us, they say
And you'll be my someone
Forever and a day
I could search the whole world over
Until my life is through
But I know I'll never find another you
It's a long, long journey
So stay by my side
When I walk through the storm
You'll be my guide, be my guide
If they gave me a fortune
My pleasure would be small
I could lose it all tomorrow
And never mind at all
But if I should lose your love, dear
I don't know what I'd do
For I know I'll never find another you
But if I should lose your love, dear
I don't know what I'd do
For I know I'll never find another you
Another you, another you
The Seekers’ timeless hit “I’ll Never Find Another You” is a melancholic love song where the singer expresses her gratitude for the person who came into her life and made it special. The opening lines signify hope and resilience, as the singer sings of a new world somewhere, a place they call the Promised Land, and how they’ll reach there someday, with the support of their partner. The singer acknowledges that they can’t walk this journey alone, and they need their partner’s presence by their side. Despite the singer’s acknowledgment that there is always someone for each of us, they know they’ll never find another person like their partner.
The song’s verses convey a sense of adventure, a journey through which the singer and their beloved will pass together. They would search the whole world over, but they know they’ll never find another person who makes them feel the way their partner does. The chorus repeatedly emphasizes the fact that even if the singer receives all the riches in the world, they know they’ll never find another person like their partner. However, should they lose the love of their life, the singer acknowledges that they don’t know what they’d do as they could never replace them.
Overall, the song speaks of the beauty and uniqueness of love and how much it means to have someone special in our lives. The song also emphasizes the importance of companionship and how comforting it is to have someone by our side through life’s journey.

@@DJKinney I hate to break it to you, man, but if you took the trouble to read Rich's show more section you would see everything about this video explained. This is a re-creation of how the song came to be recorded, done for a later documentary on The Seekers. No actual footage of the original recording exists.
