I don't care what any one says, Danny Boy is one of the most beautiful songs in the English language. Sung exquisitely by Judith Durham.

She thought about being an opera singer. She thought about being a concert pianist. She became the artist of millions of fans. Listen to her sing every day! If you are in the right mood she could make you cry with her voice. What a talent!

I cannot believe how 252 people have given this the thumbs down? This is such a beautiful song. Known, loved and sung worldwide. Judith's voice has just the right quality for it and she sings it so beautifully with love and passion. Shame on you, whoever you are.

An incredibly beautiful song, sung by an Angel. Rest in Peace, Judith. God bless you, and all who read this. 🙏💖🙏❣️

Elton John, who knows a little something about music and singing, once said that Judith was one of the three best female singers ever (the other two being Eva Cassidy and Karen Carpenter) - absolutely nothing to argue with there...

“Judith Durham’s voice is renowned for its exceptional purity, clarity, and warmth. Her unique tone has been praised by critics and fans alike, with many considering her one of the greatest female vocalists in history.”

Rest in piece, Judith. 🙏 I have never listened to 'Danny Boy' sung so beautifully and with such sorrow. Her singing voice is that wonderful.

RIP Judith your voice is returning to heaven where it was made.

No one, and I mean NO ONE sings this song better.

My father in law used to like to sing this when drunk. He was at Dunkirk and Nimegen and was a paratrooper beyond the beyond. He gave my son his medals. In memory of Stan Macnamara. Please remember him.

This is the song i sung to my my son when he was a baby, he passed away aged 22 in 2009 from a brain hemorrhage while at Trinity College Dublin, the pain never goes away. Judith sings this as best it could ever be sung. I love her singing its so unique.

Judith Durham had one of the greatest female voices of all time. Thanks for singing Danny Boy sweetheart. Rest in peace.

I feel I must push in here as an Irishman and say that This singer sings this from the heart. She tops every other version I have heard. She is a treasure and a credit to her country, Australia.

Judith is one of those angels I expect to hear sing when I get to heaven, if I get there.

As any professional singer will tell you this song is difficult to sing because of its wide range but Judith Durham with her remarkable talent makes it look effortless

As an Irish man one of the best. I've heard sing this song

Still listening in 2020--She is a treasure!

No false vibrato no vocal acrobatics just pure honest interpretation of a beautiful song Judith Durham was and is the best female singer that ever was I miss her voice.

She had an angelic voice, and she transported all of us into the story she was singing. Rest In Peace Angel!

A voice as clear as crystal. Judith really let’s out her glorious soprano voice. Absolutely the best Danny Boy I’ve ever heard. Here in October 2020, who else?

I am 66 years old, and never in my life have I ever heard such a beautiful version of 'Danny Boy'. It gives me goosebumps, a lump in my throat, and tears in my eyes. Thank you Judith! And thank God for giving you to the world!

A wonderful rendition of Danny boy. R.I.P Judith.

She not only had a great voice but also a likeable charisma - whether with the boys or solo, she was a gem. May she rest in peace. 🙏

So sad to learn of her passing. She will be a beautiful addition to the Angel Chorale. Thank you for your beautiful voice and wonderful memories.

1/31/2024: She was Lovely and the most Beautiful Voice. She sent me an autographed picture of her 3 years ago. RIP Wonderful Girl.

Most singers merely sing the notes and words, Judith sang the feeling behind the song. Beautiful. R I P Judith.

This song is so beautiful when sung by a woman. She has the voice of an Angel.

She has one of the most beautiful voices I have ever heard.

R.I.P. Judith Durham. Your talents will be deeply missed ❤️🇦🇺

RIP Judith Durham. Just heard on the radio she's passed away, aged 79. 😢

Judith Durham's rendition of Danny Boy, is truly beautiful. The voice of an Angel ❤

Judith Durham , touched by gods grace and not touched by the excesses of fame. A LEGEND.

Absolutely brilliant. There will never be another voice like Judith's. Proud to be Australian...

The people who have given this the thumbs down, all I can say is I feel sad for you, because you must be tone deaf, a woman’s voice like this comes along once in a life time, .and will be remembered long after when most if not all of your pop hero’s have been long forgotten.

A beautiful angel who didn't need a mic touching her lips and hiding her face. An Australian treasure too!

I am now 73 years old. I have never heard a more moving version of Danny Boy. Thank you Judith! You have been a gift.

She gave us so much joy over 60 years. An angel on earth now an angel in heaven. Very sad to say goodbye.

Praise technology because we can still see and hear this beautiful woman. Thank you Judith for enriching my life.

Only a crazy or evil person could thumbs down this. A very special lady with a wonderful unforgettable voice and beauty.

So Beautiful it hurts.

This song was my late dad's favourite song l cry when ever l hear it lost my dad 2002 to cancer and l was shattered then lost mum 2009 to cancer too and mum loved Judith singing this version of Danny boy 😂😂😂❤❤❤life is soooo precious 💞

Rest in peace , Judith . The beautiful rendition of " Danny Boy".

Beautiful voice , stunning. Today's singers couldn't compete with her . No way .

Heaven is an even better place now that Judith is there. And the angels sing.

Judith's beautiful, powerful haunting voice is a gift from God. You will never hear a more beautuiful version of this classic.

I don't think she realise just how great she was and the effect she had on people

Judith's voice has a rare purity and beauty. I cannot quite describe it. There's something enchanting about the color, brightness and fullness of her voice.

I'd forgotten just how beautiful Judith's voice is. Effortless, sublime and crystal clear!!! Amazing!!!! This song is perfect for her!

Best version of this song

One of the lovliest ballads, sung by one of the world's lovliest vocalists. Judith, you brought such joy to us all ... your beauty, your voice, your songs will live on through the ages.

Some1 lease me a time machine so I can go back to 1968. I will bring it back, honest. Always love Judith !

It's hard to believe a person can put out such a beautiful piece of artwork. RIP

Farewell sweet Judith…your legacy and beautiful voice will live on forever and you will never be forgotten.

This is easily the definitive version of this song, Absolutely lovely, and it speaks to me. I lost my son when he was 18 - in Northern I reland.

Vale Judith Durham. No one will ever replace you, You were a very special person who dealt with tragedy and heartbreak but never stopped smiling, an incredible vocalist, pianist, and performer who was an ambassador for Australia. I believe she is now performing in a better place reunited with her husband, thank you Judith Durham for the music and the memories you have given to so many millions of people all over the world.

this is one of the great voices in musical history---pure brilliance--pure purity.

We don't seem to have any singers like this anymore - oh what a pity.

Raw talent. No rubbish like auto tune or studio editing. Simply sheer raw talent. Well done Judith Durham. You did Australia proud 👍👍👍👍

Sharon North: My Dad was a Derry Boy, 13 years later I still break down at Danny Boy, love you Daddy xx

Beautifully done. The angels are singing with you now. RIP Judith.

Not much makes me cry but your passing has me with tears rolling down my cheeks, i am 73 and have listened to your stunning voice all my life and your passing has broke my heart. RIP Judith, now go join the Angels from whence you came.

I lost my wife recently, and this rendition of Danny Boy by Judith gives me great peace.

Rest in peace Judy Durham. Beautiful song, beautiful angelic voice. Blessed art thou 🥀

How sad that Judith Durham has just died. As was mentioned by the PM of Australia, “she was one of their national treasures”. I hope others will agree. 6/8/22

Being Irish I have been brought up with Danny boy sung at every gathering n even when it was just in our home .I have never heard a version sung like this it is gloriously superb!!!

Is there a song she can't sing beautifully? Thank God a voice like this found it's way to the masses.

My dear father loved this song and he used to play it on his piano, it's so special to me because I know that he was thinking of me while playing it, God bless him.

Judith Durham. If ever anyone warranted the title of "National Treasure" it is her and the Seekers. :D

I have never in my life heard this song "Danny Boy" sung so exquisitely & I don't believe anybody else ever will in the future. She sings with such beauty & feeling as to make a grown man cry. If there is a god he surely touched Judith.

What a life to have lived bringing joy to countless millions

RIP dear lady, NOWBODY can sing "Danny Boy" with such genuineness and tenderness as YOU. It's a very sad song about heart break and hope. Sung a lot at funerals, I know of no other song that is more requested at this difficult time because it uplifts the spirit. From an Irish man who has heard this song quite a few times.👍💚

In memory of my Dad...Daniel A. White, Sr. 1921-1994. Devoted and Beloved Husband, Father, Grandfather, WW2 Veteran and Dear Friend to Many. I love you, Da.

My beautiful three sons, Casey, Samuel, and Peter, you are all three grown men now gone away to grow your own lives and family...but I will always be here for you...and if you come and find I am gone...just listen... And remember the hundreds of times I sang this for you as you went off to bed as boys...this is our song always and forever...."and I shall sleep in Peace untill you come to me." ...

Dear Judith Durham in Heaven forever and ever RIP with angels and Jesus Christ forever singing

God speed , Judith Durham , Australia's most precious song bird ; this world was never meant for one as beautiful as you

Nobody could ever sing Danny Boy like Judith Durham. She is the best!

Born to sing. A gift to the world from God. People like this stand out in the world, and Judith certainly always has. She's such an inspiration.

So beautiful,there will never be another Judith,forever in my heart.xx

Thank you Judith for all the beautiful music you sang for us. This one brought tears to my eyes. You will be missed.

The most beautiful voice ever, now singing with the Angels.

Judith your singing fed my soul, the purity of your version of Danny Boy to all the wonderful Seekers songs with the boys. I was at the Music Bowl in 1967 with my dear Mum, I saw the 25th reunion, the 50th Concert, I went to the 1994 Grand Final to see the Seekers, I saw you sing jazz and singing with the Choir of Hard Knocks. I am saddened that your carnival is over. Thank you for the joy your singing gave to me and many, many others. Heaven’s choir now has its lead singer and you have now found the Olive Tree.

You know…!I always shed a tear when I hear this

I was born at the wrong time! Not only a greater generation of vocals, but the depth in the voice conveyed believability of living the life!

These people left us all a GREAT LEGACY. SADLY missed she will be. Thankyou Judith for your wonderful music. You now sing for 😇 Much love to YOU. REST IN PEACE. AMEN.

Brilliant! What a blessing Judith Durham was to Australia and to the world!

Simply beautiful I have always loved Judith’s voice, I’ve never heard her do this before, it’s beautiful ❤️

Rest in Peace Judith, may the angelic choir welcome you with song as you leave us your legacy of grace and music.

judith such a beautiful voice...anybody who respects music as this..appreciates judiths voice

The Seekers: Often unjustly overlooked for their musical contributions in the `60's. But Judith Durham possessed a voice as clear as a mountain stream. Danny Boy may be denigrated by Irish purists, but her rendition is as sweet and precious today as it was so many years ago. Thank you so much for posting.

if i was dead and buried and heard your voice from beneath the sod my heart would still rejoice.

Judith absolutely shatters me. I don’t know if I could watch this again. I’ve heard this song my entire life. She makes me weep. In a good way.

Many of the greatest singers of the last 100 years have sung this song. I’ve never heard a version that was better than this.

Who else is 'out there' today who can sing like this..? Judith's voice makes my arm hairs stand on end..

Peace be with you Judith: I'm 73 Irish/Dutch Canadian. The 1st song I ever heard and learned to sing and play on keys and strings was Danny Boy for my Scottish Grandmother. Other then performing King Crimson with my Les Paul Mansfield such as Epithet - the Sneekers and the Rankin Family made the music I loved. Judith's rendition of Danny Boy was always my favorite - God Bless Her - Ron

Her beautiful voice soothes my spirit.

I've heard 'em all, male and female, old and new, and this is the best version... to me, anyway.

My heart is truly broken and I have cried to hear that Judith has passed us by. All the wondrous qualities of her voice can be heard here. They called her a songbird, but she was so much more than that. Who do you know who can sing like her. I am blessed to have known her, met her and heard her sing.

She will be singing with the angels know, what a beautiful song sung by the great lovely Judith rip

Her voice has that thing that reaches me in a way like no other.

Always brings a tear to the eye, what a truly wonderful version by Judith.. She's a true vocal marvel x
