American Reacts to Only Boys Allowed Sing Calon Lan Britain's Got Talent 2012

Former only boys aloud member, and these were the greatest years of my life! Standing side by side with these boys will NEVER be beaten!

Welsh male voice singing is a tradition that goes back many many years and its a very massive rabbit hole to go down. An enjoyable one of course. Only boys aloud are doing a very great job of keeping the tradition of Welsh male voice singing going and when ever I see or hear them I feel glad that the future is in safe hands

As a former member of Only Boys Aloud, there’s a real sense of pride that just lifts you when you’re singing these songs.

I’m Asian here in U.S, love this choir,they’re preserving their own culture.So touching and uplifting.

There's a massive tradition of Welsh Male Voice Choirs with many excellent examples. I'm English but love the emotion and power of these.

Born Welsh by the grace of god, with passion in our hearts, and voices.

Welsh male choir - one of the best sounds ever created whether it’s a professional group or the terraces at a rugby match

I played this at my father's funeral, he loved the words. Try to find 'The Morriston Orpheus Male Voice Choir' - this is one of the most successful choirs Wales has ever produced, from a suburb of my home town of Swansea. They have many best-selling albums. Thanks for the video, making me homesick, lol. Ronnie Barker (of the 2 Ronnies fame) once joked that Welsh men don't actually go home, they just Sing about going home!

Beautiful!!! As a retired choir director in the USA it thrilled me to watch this. I watch it over and over! I wish that American Boys in public schools had a better attitude out singing!

There really is nothing quite like a Welsh Male Voice Choir. Absolutely amazing!!!!

Calon lan means pure heart ❤️ here’s the lyrics in English: I don’t ask for a luxurious life, the world’s gold or its fine pearls, I ask for a happy heart, an honest heart, a pure heart. A pure heart full of goodness Is fairer than the pretty lily, None but a pure heart can sing, Sing in the day and sing in the night. If I wished for worldly wealth, It would swiftly go to seed; The riches of a virtuous, pure heart Will bear eternal profit. Evening and morning, my wish Rising to heaven on the wing of song For God, for the sake of my Saviour, To give me a pure heart.

I usually skip the backstories, but theirs was amazing. Kudos to Tim and the organisation - kids, parents, mentors, they have made a real impact on young people. Watch their first audition, it was brilliant and also tells the story.

Windsor Davies would have a tear in his eye if he was alive today my lovely boys!

I am English and very proud of my country BUT at times like listening to a Welsh Choir I wish I was born Welsh.

It's a very popular Welsh hymn. It's even sung by the crowd at some sporting events.

It gets you right their doesn't it ! I have watched them singing this over and over and it still gets to me can't beat a good Welsh choir. 😁

Ah thanks for reacting to that. Have a great day, love from Wales.🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🇬🇧

Makes me so proud to be Welsh. Gives me goosebumps hearing this. ❤️

You can relate to this and recognize the emotion because you too have a big heart.

We are welsh! We are proud! We are passionate! Yma o hyd!
