I wander the streetsAnd the gay crowded placesTrying to forget youBut somehow it seemsThat my thoughts ever strayTo our last sweet embracesOver the sea on the island of dreamsHigh in the sky is a bird on a wingPlease carry me with youFar, far away from the mad rushing crowdPlease carry me with youAgain I would wanderWhere memories enfold meThere on the beautiful island of dreamsFar, far away on the island of dreams
Robert Stevens
Although I do like Dusty, I give the nod to Durham. I think her soprano voice is given a more predominent role.
Phil D Cooke
I never tire of this song , another classic from dusty’s brother Tom

Remember this on the radio many years ago Brings me back to my childhood Thanks Judith Hope you have a great christmas
John Scott
Judith you have a special gift with the rest of this group you are what makes us sing to Thank you for sharing it with the rest of the world
Osvaldo Schilling
Modern music is about appealing to the senses, to primitive needs, to make the body move. The Seekers on the contrary capture you from the soul.

With the possible exception of The Beatles, the greatest group of all time
Brian Lloyd
Those high notes ....simply divine
Larry Murphy
The thing people overlook is Judith came in this world with a gift that God gave her and she just let the gift do the singing.

I am in my 60s. And still remember The Seekers coming to New Plymouth, to the Bowl of Brooklands . Fell in love as a young teenager.

I am a Welshman from the land of song. Judith, you should have been born in Wales with that magical voice. Your band ain’t bad either.
Sam Humphries
The Springfields version had far far away mad rushin crowds and was banned in Russia whereas the Seekers version is rushing crowds
Supermike Rodanas
Beautiful but i prefer The Springfields version
Thomas Sperduti
Pretty song but the Springfield s original version with Dusty on lead is much better.
