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.

The Seekers Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm sure missing your company
Your day's beginning my day's about to end
You are so much a part of me
You are the soul and the heart of me
I find myself thinking of you time and again
Oh love when you are far away
The way that I'm feeling when I get those faraway eyes
Time and again
Your voice sounds a world away
You say you'll be home any day
And I'll be here waiting counting the hours till when
I hear your footsteps at the door
As you me waltzing around the floor
Back in your arms loving you time and again
Oh love when you are far away
I can't disguise
The way that I'm feeling when I get those faraway eyes
Time and again
You are so much a part of me
You are the soul and the heart of me
I find myself thinking of you time and again
I find myself thinking of you time and again

This has to be one of Judith Durham's most sublime performances of any song. It gives me goosebumps, it is that brilliant. Bruce's words at the end say it all.
Frank Scivier
Not only does Judith Durham possess the most stunningly beautiful voice I have ever heard in my life, she injects so much heart and soul into her singing that it is just incredible. She is just so wonderful a singer that I have to regard Judith as divine.
Frank Scivier
This is yet another very beautiful song by The Seekers sung by a lady who just about everyone agrees is the greatest singer with the most beautiful voice in the entire history of recorded sound. I cannot help noticing that 21 people have given this the thumbs down which means that this has been seen by at least 21 tone-dear idiots!!!.
Robin Hunsaker
Agreed!
Jim Bacon
For me the Seekers were two or three hit singles here in America in the mid-60s when I was in 7th and 8th grade. I didn't hear their newer music until the last two years. Still amazing!
Roy Perilloux
Amen! Timeless, generation spanning music. Talent reaches passed age.
Richard Barr
So good to hear these wonderful troupers 53 years on. Not lost any of their verve. What a lesson for our younger generation.

The Seekers have EARNED the many great accolades here. Judith, the boys, the manger, the label, and others all deserve proper recognition. I would like to honor yet another aspect of this great gift in musical memories. Every time I listen to The Seekers I hear that special sound we can all recognize as coming from somewhere down under. I salute Australia and offer thanx from my heart for its part in giving the world The Seekers.

Watching this song sung live was a highlight.
I remember Bruce Woodley waltz Judith gently across the floor in the break of this song it was spellbinding.
Loraine Taylor
