It was a big deal, a new format and a total change in the way we listened to music. I remember being obsessed with looking at the underside of the discs with all the colours of the rainbow moving on the surface like a hologram.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eMy Dad bought us some CDs and also a rack to display them in. But, there was one CD I always wanted to listen to and sing and dance along to: The Seekers 25 Year Reunion Celebration. I just loved everything about it. The harmonies, the audience interaction, the incredibly unique voice of Judith Durham. It was fun, beautiful, soulful, organic, classic and timeless.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eGrowing up in Australia the music of The Seekers was not only a part of my childhood, but I truly believe it helped to form me as an artist. At school we sang \"I Am Australian\", a song that unites all of the people of Australia as one. This particular song was one I have sung many times during my career at so many different events and concerts.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eIn 2011, I was so lucky to have been able to tour alongside The Seekers together with André Rieu. It was an incredible experience for me to learn from them first hand and to sing together with them on stage. All four of them are so down to earth and such lovely, genuine people with hearts of gold.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis album is a salute to the four people who inspired me and gave me encouragement to continue my dream of being a singer. Together with David Cameron and Pete Dacey we have put our own spin on the songs that are so well loved by The Seekers.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis recording is in no way intended to replace the original recordings of The Seekers, but it is with respect that I sing their music and share it with my own wonderful fans and friends around the world.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eSo to Judith, Keith, Athol and Bruce, I salute you!\"\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e- Mirusia\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cimg alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com\/product-image-bucket-prod-us\/346681-Embedded-0-I.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Shop","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44016399384650,"sku":"346681","price":21.09,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/2164\/0266\/files\/346681-Product-0-I_07dd54a6-cc23-441e-b28a-9a0eaae998a7.jpg?v=1785821042","url":"https:\/\/www.nioclothing.com\/products\/cd-mirusia-a-salute-to-the-seekers-cd","provider":"NIO","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
