Thank you for watching me, a humble American, react to I am You Are We Are Australian by The Seekers. This song is so great and was an absolute pleasure to react to. Thank you!

  • As an Aussie I have always felt that this should be Australia’s National Anthem. 💜🇦🇺😊
  • @chriscody2778
    Myself & millions of Aussies want this as our National Anthem 😢

    No matter how many times I hear this song, when Judith sings and we join in the chorus, I struggle not to cry. It just fills you up and reminds you to be a proud Aussie. Thanks for loving it as much as we do.
  • This absolutely should be the Australian National Anthem. It’s such a beautiful song that demonstrates and embodies Australia our culture and our hearts!

    Being of Vietnamese heritage and living as an Australian, This song touches the heart strings every time. It has greater meaning than our Australian Anthem itself. As a refugee, we found salvation in Australia and a Future for our generations present and more to come. I wake up each morning humbled Knowing that I have woken up being Australian and be forever grateful. One day, my children to be, will be reminded of the gravity of why.... ....

    Rest in Peace Judith Durham. An icon of Australian music. Her beautiful voice will live on in the hearts of so many Australians and others around the world.
  • As a child of Greek migrants, this song has so much more meaning than I can ever express. Living here has been a gift 💝 & it gives me goosebumps all the way down to my knees 🧡

    I'm so proud to be Australian. I was born in England and came to Australia when I was 4. I was naturalised and became a true blue Aussie. That's the message with this song, no matter where we came from, we are all Australian and so proud to be so. It should be our national anthem. The seeker's are so amazing. I love a lot of their music. Dear Judith Durham is no longer with us, sadly. She's an angel in heaven. I cried the day she died. She was a very special woman, with an amazing voice. I miss her still. God bless you Judith, you live on in our hearts and in your music. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
  • We lost her voice, silenced by time the same week as Olivia Newton John. RIP Judith Durham. Australia needs this song as a National Anthem.
  • It's not just a song. It's a fabulous history lesson. Love it! R.I.P. Judith Durham 😥

    I'm an old guy who has heard this song, maybe a couple of hundred times. I'm also an immigrant to this great country. Still, every time I hear the song I fight to hold back the tears. There's something so hauntingly personal about the music and the lyrics. Like millions of other Australians, I think this song should be our National Anthem. One of the best songs ever written, anywhere. Great reaction to a great song.

    I am a migrant and naturalised Australian. My heart in my throat when I hear and sing this Australian ‘anthem’. Makes me feel I am truly accepted and am so proud to be Australian!
  • This Canadian had tears and shaky hands. Never have I heard such pure love expressed for one's country, nor respect for its Indigenous past. The Aussies are our mates in the British Commonwealth - the most popular kids in class! Two residual takes: Judith Durham has the most beautiful, powerful voice I have ever heard, and this American has the most moving and genuine "reaction" I have ever seen. A quote from Tiny Tim: God Bless us all, each and every one.
  • @tomtomruth
    As a kiwi, I would imagine that many Aussies would love this as their anthem. It is truly a GREAT song!
  • Nothing quite stirs the Aussie heart and spirit like this song, makes you feel bloody proud.
  • @almighty3372
    I am no Australian, but I have listened to this song countless times, and each time I listen to it I have tears in my eye........this angelic voice!!!!!!!
  • @dmr8914
    Its kinda weird to see an "non-Aussie" get chills from an truly Aussie song worthy of our National Anthem. That's the power of a song
  • @karenstrong8887
    The Seekers were world famous. In this concert to say goodbye Judith is half sitting on a tall stool. She came back from having a massive stroke to do this. You need to go way back when they were all young and listen to songs like, The Carnival Is Over and so many more. All 4 were and are talented.

    I'm English in Australia and grew up with The Seekers. I'm reduced to tears every time. God bless you Sir and R.I.P Judith 🙏
  • This song encapsulates everything about Australia. Her history, her people, her culture, her landscape and flora and fauna.
