The Seekers - I Am Australian Special Farewell Performance (all 5 verses)
• The Seekers - I Am Aus...
Lyrics
I came from the dream-time
From the dusty red-soil plains
I am the ancient heart
The keeper of the flame
I stood upon the rocky shores
I watched the tall ships come
For forty thousand years I've been
The first Australian
I came upon the prison ship
Bowed down by iron chains
I fought the land, endured the lash
And waited for the rains
I'm a settler, I'm a farmer's wife
On a dry and barren run
A convict, then a free man
I became Australian
I'm the daughter of a digger
Who sought the mother lode
The girl became a woman
On the long and dusty road
I'm a child of the Depression
I saw the good times come
I'm a bushie, I'm a battler
I am Australian
We are one, but we are many
And from all the lands on earth we come
We'll share a dream and sing with one voice
"I am, you are, we are Australian"
I'm a teller of stories
I'm a singer of songs
I am Albert Namatjira
And I paint the ghostly gums
I'm Clancy on his horse
I'm Ned Kelly on the run
I'm the one who waltzed Matilda
I am Australian
I'm the hot wind from the desert
I'm the black soil of the plains
I'm the mountains and the valleys
I'm the drought and flooding rains
I am the rock, I am the sky
The rivers when they run
The spirit of this great land
I am Australian
We are one, but we are many
And from all the lands on earth we come
We'll share a dream and sing with one voice
"I am, you are, we are Australian"
We are one, but we are many
And from all the lands on earth we come
We'll share a dream and sing with one voice
"I am, you are, we are Australian"
"I am, you are, we are Australian"
In 2014, Judith Durham and The Seekers concluded their Farewell concert tour. It's clear from the fan videos (taken in Australia and London) that they were in great form for their Golden Jubilee and at long last an official DVD is available!
Hi Travis and Susie!! I totally love you guys so much. You have just the best spirit about you. I chose this song because it’s a sweet song that talks about what makes an Australia what it is. That we are a hodge podge of people from all over the world. But truthfully, australia always was, always will be aboriginal land, but it’s a great place to be. I hope you like it.

@yoluko4750 Год назад

This wonderful Judith Durham (female singer here) passed away last year. The seekers have said thy wont perform again without her, they’ve been together as a band since the 1960’s. This song is so beautiful, it has phases and tells different parts of the story. The first part speaks of Aboriginal people before European colonisation, the 2nd verse tells the sories of the early fays of the Europeans, establishing a prison colony. The third verse tells the story essentially into the 19th and early 20th centuries when Australia became a nation. The last two verses talk about Australia’s cultural heritage and then it’s natural wonders.

It is a Didgeridoo. I still miss Judith, the lead singer who passed away just a few days away from Olivia Newton John. They were both granted State Funerals and they were both wonderful. Judith was left with a lung disease she got from having measles as a child and that is why we lost her. She is sitting on the edge of a stool on this farewell tour because she had just recovered from a bad stroke. Yet she still had that amazing voice. Listen to something they did when they were young and they are world famous. Like The Carnival Is Over or Georgie Girl or anything. It has now been proven our First people have been here for 65,000 years. I am Australian and I have been to America 6 times. All Australians welcome people. We can be odd but you will get used to us. We don’t have to know you to start talking to you or help you. I live in a small village like place on a Long Beach. It is a 25 minute drive to the nearest Country City and it was hard for this girl who was born in Sydney, lived most of my life in Melbourne to get used to living in the Sub Tropics in Queensland but I wouldn’t change it. We have a tiny Pharmacy that Dwight is mostly running. Dwight is American and I asked him how he ended up here. Most people don’t know where here is. He told me he loves Australia and I said but here? His wife was born here. 😂

@dashamanstevo5326 Год назад

That Blorr blooor sound at the beginning is the Indigenous Australian instrument called a didgeridoo. It is a long hollow wooden tube, played using a circular breathing technique. It is an incredible, haunting sound. Best heard when played by an expert in a cave or an Australian river gorge, where the sound echos and reverberates. Look up didgeridoo music. You will be amazed. Loving your journey through Australian music. Happy to make you honourary Australian citizens. You are always welcome here. Love from Perth in Western Australia.

@mssuziquzi Год назад

For us Aussies this song is so moving, it should be our anthem. It sums up what it really means to be Australian. Over the past 200 plus years we have all come here from another place, whether as convicts, refugees or free settlers. Even our first nation people came from another land, now believed to be around 65,000 years ago, (not 40,000 years as originally thought.) It really doesn't matter when we got here, we're all Australian. We are one. RIP Judith, you sang like an angel.

@pwk22 Год назад

Beautiful song. I read a bit on "Ned Kelly". I'm not sure a cop killer should be glorified in an otherwise-lovely song. But as a Minnesotan, I don't get a vote.

@mssuziquzi Год назад

@@pwk22 His family was poor Irish Catholic, the lowest rung on the social ladder back then. The poor were looked down on and rarely got fair treatment from the constabulary. Consequently there was a fair bit of intimidation and no love lost between them. Ned Kelly decided to make a stand and became a kind of folk hero. I'm not defending cop killing by the way, just giving you some background. They say his last words before they hanged him were "Such is life" Check out Albert Namatjira, another name mentioned in the song. He was the first Australian indigenous painter of note. Interesting story. I'll give you a vote just for reading a bit.☺

First Nations people, the convicts who became "free settlers" those like me who came on a boat from far away, we are all Australian. Makes me cry with pride and thankful every day. This version was the final performance by The Seekers, and Judith Durham still has the voice of angel here. The day she oassed away, was a sad day for Australia. The Seekers still hold the record for the largest crowd at a single Australian concert - over 200,000 back in the 60s. Considering the population at the time, that was incredible.

A great band where each performer, and their music, matured well. Class act both when young and now.

Beautiful, heartfelt song. Judith Durham was recovering from a stroke during this tour, which is why she was half sitting on, half supported by a chair.

G'day, I'm an Aussie, thnx SO much for your review, you captured the soul of this song beautifully. We, as Australians have fought, struggled and and endured the ups and downs of life and living to come to where we are now. This song ALWAYS brings tears to my eyes. This great land has always, and will always belong to our beautiful indigenous people, the ones of the "Dreamtime". We, as the "white man" were brought here in chains and many MANY wrongs were done. Please come visit our land, you'll never want to leave!! We are culturally diverse, friendly happy people. Come see "Downunder" It'll blow ya mind.. 🤟😉🦘

As an indigenous man I've always loved this song thank you for reaction

This is our default Nation Anthem.. A beautiful song that embraces everything Australian. When we are a Republic, it will be our Anthem Im sure (probably the chorus bit mainly, but all of it). And that sound is the Didgeridoo.. An Ancient instrument. Goosebumps from music is called "Frisson".. Frisson, also known as aesthetic chills or psychogenic shivers, is a psychophysiological response to rewarding stimuli. Over-represented in musicians and artists, which is kinda self-evident. Albert Namatjira was a famous indigenous artist. Clancy was a horseranger/traveller, in a famous poem by Banjo Patterson.. Glad you loved it, it obviously made you smile.. Beautiful Judith passed not long after this R.I.P.

Going to miss Judith, but we all have memories of her and her beautiful voice. But I'm sure Ron was waiting at the gates for you and even the choirs in heaven are enriched with your singing.

One of the things that shortened Judith Durham's life was that she had chronic disease from childhood that caused her to have a reduced lung capacity. For someone with this condition it is amazing she could sing let alone with such a lyrical voice.

The Seekers have been around since the sixties. Judith Durham was sitting because of her health. She later died from her lung condition. This song is iconic. And very much loved by us Aussies. As are the 3 three wonderful men with her. The rumbling sound is a didgeridoo ( first nation/indigenous/aboriginal instrument.

Love that you sang along ...it's so moving, we are proud of this song and it's ability to make you connect 😊

@breezle7296 Год назад

The fact that each versa is about an Australian and one about Australia itself and the chorus bringing it all together about Australians now (the 'present' whenever you're listening to it) makes it so timeless and meaningful

He isn't only the perfect voice of this song... he wrote and composed the song. His Name is Bruce Woodley!
