I am a retired pensioner from North Wales who has lived in Spain for 12 years. Listening to the choir singing all these songs we used to sing back home ,brings back many happy memories. My eyes are full of tears well done boys you really sing for Wales.
@@brian83junior Only the Welsh understand Welsh. The Scots, Irish and originally the Cornish from South West England also spoke their own languages, Only rhe English spoke English! Amazing i such a couple of small islands!
God bless the man who had the vision to bring these boys together - he has done the world a favour as well as his country and each of the owner's of those beautiful voices. An absolute joy to listen to over and over again - keep it up - it's too beautiful to stop!
My son has worked as an engineer in Cardiff Wales for 8 years - just loves it - and according to him all the young male friends he has made - they can all sing!
I’m Asian, does not understand one word of their language but found this choir amazing ( an understatement). The Choirmaster is very inspiring,encouraging.I pray all of them will have a bright future and hoping also their city will be blessed with good economic opportunities and success,God Bless.
I have sung in MANY choirs over the years and I am so moved by this choir.....not only for the sound they make but also for the reasons they are singing....I am so proud of all of you! ♥️
I am not English. I live 9000 miles away. I absolutely love this group. The patriotism emanates from them to no end. Incredible group of young boys. Please keep on singing not only for your country but for the world.
@@audranorwood3113 You Do Audra, there are Welsh speaking ex-pats all over the USA. Contact Bryn Seion Church, Beavercreek Oregon. They hold a Gymanfa each year and can help you contact other churches and choirs. Good Luck
I have visited Wales 3 times, each visit better than the last. I had heard of the great tradition of Welsh singing but had never heard a Welch choir until now. This is a beautiful country and a beautiful people.
It's amazing to watch the maturation of this choir in the videos posted, from their debut then Britain's Got Talent 7 now this breathtaking finale performance for Her Majesty's Coronation Festival. The boys voices are both elegant & dynamic at the same time and the soloists selected perfectly, just fantastic. But the real credit has to go to Tim Rhys-Evans and the captains of the 10 local choirs and this exceptional combined group. Still hoping for an American tour someday. Simply marvelous!
"Hear, hear!" These young gentlemen move me, deep down. And it's mostly because of the conductor/founder's aims with this group. His purpose moves me; the fact that they're terrific is "so much gravy".
I come back to this often to experience it one more time. What an exquisite evening and the director and each young man gave a gift to the world that will never die…we’ll just come back to hear it again.
Keeping the tradition of the male Welsh choirs... the fabulous richness of the voices. My father was raised with this and passed it on to me...love to see this ... gives this Welsh-American thrills
Absolutely wonderful!! I am so happy that someone brought back the traditional boys choir!! I wish we had something this special in the U.S. Great job boys!!
@@annedonnellan6876 Glee Clubs are show choir's, something very different. When I was in high school in the 1970s, the student body numbered about 1,300. 750 were in the Music Department. We had a 212 voice Senior (SATB) Choir, Junior (SATB) Choir, Men's (TTBB) Choir, Ladies' (SSAA) Choir, Senior Orchestra, Junior Orchestra, Jazz Band, Chamber Orchestra, and for special performances, the Massed Choirs and Orchestras. 750 students on stage in the school auditorium. For Handel's Hallelujah Chorus, alumni in the audience were invited on stage. There could be a thousand musicians. It was quite something.
The conductor of this group deserves great praise for his leadership of this choir! He is the one who puts together the arrangements and coordination between choir and orchestra!
Thanks @bcwest56 for your lovely comment. This is our fantastic founder Tim Rhys Evans conducting. Only Boys Aloud is a community choir that is free for the Boys - it's facilitated by The Aloud Charity, who rely on support from individuals and supporters to keep it going. We're so proud of our Boys and the opportunities we're able to provide them.
What a glorious sound emanating from the voices of these talented young men. I'm sure the royal family was delighted to listen to these boys who are living in the United Kingdom and sharing their gift with the world. Bravo from the USA.
Breathtakingly beautiful, wonderful harmony, and these young men are surely the pride of Wales. Thanks for sharing with us in America. My children have Welsh ancestry from their father.
It's August 2020, I've listened to the original first BGT audition of Calon Lan a hundred times, maybe more. This is the first time I've seen the Coronation performance. Love it. You have all brought so much happiness and joy and hope to millions. Job well done!
they came in third in BGT but have sung for Queen and start of Olympics. Some day they may do a world tour. Choir is continuously changing as older boys go off to college or work and younger boys become of age to join. Great choir!
Iam not from Britain,iam form India but when i heard this song i become fan of this wonderful group i really love this beautiful songs,once in week i used to watch this video ,i salute from the bottom of my heart for these boys what a song really i don't have any words speechless ,keep it up ,may God bless you .
It takes a lot of discipline and self-discipline for a group like this to be able to perform so proudly and so happily. You have to practice, practice, practice. You have to follow a diet on the day of the performance, above all you have to want to do it! As a mother of two who sang from elementary school through high school, attending many rehearsals and performances 3-4 nights/days a week, drivIng car pools, chaperoning performance road trips, being there for kids whose parents could not be there...to see a performance like this and know what all goes into it is so rewarding and brings much cheer and good memories and pride to my heart.
I respectfully ask Tim if Only Boys Aloud can sing ALL the Christmas carols in LATIN, please. That would be an album in itself. Blessings to all the BOYS and mentors, you have angelic voices as a World Choir.
I've returned and it's just as beautiful as it was 9 years ago!! The harmony around the 3:50 mark was stunning!! I hope you ALL have continued to sing in one form or another. So much talent!!
Outstanding! I watched you lads on BGT and I was in awe! Congratulations to your Choir Master for his vision, his passion and perserverence, and absolute belief in you! Well Done! The world needs this.
I first saw these folks on BGT and continue to go back and watch their audition over and over again. Their talent and heart, as well as that of the conductor, shows through so well. There is also an innocence that shines brightly when they perform. God bless them!
This song is very beautiful. Thanking this choir who brought this song international wide. Hopefully my foot step will bring me to this beautiful place Wales.
These gorgeous boys with gorgeous voices never fail to bring on the goose bumps! It's time they came to the States! We here in New York City are ready to roll out the "Red Carpet" for OBA! Long live Her Majesty and OBA!
The choir director has more than just more inspiration about forming a choir -- he had (and has) a vision to bring these boys into something that would not only give them a purpose to elevate them in their personal lives, he has given us all a wonderful gift and they have blessed us all with their incredible voices!! Thank you all so much!!!
They were even smart enough to pick a distinctly Northern Irish song. (Well, it predates the border, but it's definitely from the north of Ireland.) TRiG.
Which song is from England? I know Calon Lan = Wales, Loch Lomond and Caledonia = Scotland, and Danny Boy = Northern Ireland. What is the name of the last song they sang?
so proud to live in Wales with such talent and this welsh talent from a nation of 3million or so people having such a huge presence in a national concert. from a nation of more than 60 million, wales, you've done us proud.
Fantastic performance by a group of teenage lads who give up their own time to rehearse and perform. Mentored and led by the talented Only Men Aloud and Tim
Unfortunately, I had to wait until my freshman year in what was then an all male college before I learned the joy of singing in a chorus made up of only male voices. Our first rehearsal just blew my mind. Subsequently I learned of the Welsh tradition of male choruses and wished that I had been born across the seas so that I might have spent my teen years in a group like this. Well done, lads!
Stunningly beautiful! Absolutely one of the best I've ever seen. To every single lad that was part of this, congratulations and stand proud! Each and every one of you stand tall knowing you gave it all! So proud of each of each of you.
Choir master......How you controlled that performance is astounding!!! Katherine Jenkins was looking straight at you!! I can only imagine having such an amazing music teacher in my youth!!. You SIR....are a star!!! Boys...you did an amazing job for yourselves,your teacher and for Wales, SO well done. be proud of yourselves!
This is so awesome. I'm totally impressed with you all and the joy on your faces reflect how you feel about singing. Good job boys and director. Keep singing.
Oh...my...freaking...God! I have Irish heritage, and no connection to Wales, but this choir blew me away. "Danny Boy" naturally moved me to tears. The voices, harmonies and arrangements were all soul-raising. Bravo! With respect and admiration from Detroit, Michigan and Windsor, Ontario.
I'm Dutch. I love the way you sing into the heart!!! You're AMAZING!! I listened and still listening the BGT audition. How good are you you touched me deeply when I didn't know what you were singing about. That's really great!!!
Watching from Canada. My late husband's Male Voice Choir performed this song. Thanks for posting this. Made me cry but the performance was spectacular.
Seeing their enthuiasm, hearing the song for which I am named, got me choked up thinking about my mom who passed in 2018, but reminded me often of her love of the song which moved her to name me Danny. God Bless You.
it's a shame that they didn't win the BGT but look they are doing their thing big time... so proud of them even though I'm from Asia I really support them with all my heart following their videos all the time.. am a big fan....
Unfortunately there are 14 people who can't hear. What a beautiful performance guys!!! I've loved you since I first heard your audition on BGT. Sending love from across the "big pond" in the U.S.
If only someone could hit upon a way to inspire boys in England to have pride in their achievements, doing something that’s actually cool. This is such a brilliant venture, and I love listening to their performances.
What a wonderful occasion for a truly fantastic choir, a brilliant performance by Only Boys Aloud and Katherine Jenkins. My son has been in Only Boys Aloud since the very start and is a member of the Aberdare Group but, he and many other boys from various groups across Wales are not getting seen in any footage. Please understand that being a Parent of an Only Boys Aloud member is fantastic and I love every minute of it but when we don't have a view of our sons in these great occasions it hurts.
Awww, I didn't see two of my favs from when they were on BGT, but the first solo guy was still there, yay! Lots of new faces it looks like. Anyway, LOVE this group. Love it, love it, love it.
Its still bring tears to my eyes everytime I hear this lads... I thought you have bring inspiration to all the youth in the world. Until then.. you are all amazing!
Just think.. a big christmas concert, with big christmas-tree's , lots of christmas lights, and a massive concert from this amazing group. And all the great scottisch christmassongs. Traveling all over the world!! If you ever would do this kind a tour.. please tell me. Because i would sleep by the place where they sale tickets for a christmas concert here in Holland. And i shall be the first one who has there tickets! I just simply love and adore this group. This is truely perfection!!!
Nothing like making a boy proud and not boastful of who he is !!! This is what this choir is doing and Welsh sounds so amazingly powerful and beautiful
This actually makes me feel like as a teenager I should be out there doing something, Ifan Jenkin just made me cry for the second time this year :) that was so, so beautiful
David Massengill good for you David. If you want to learn quickly and for free go to saysomethinginwelsh.com. and you can listen to the free lessons travelling to work or whenever you want. Modern Welsh is the closest ancestor of the ancient British language, and it's sound echoed across this realm. Whether you're standing on a rocky Cornish cliff, the flats of east Anglia, a sandy Pembrokeshire beach or the summit of skarfel, when you speak it you feel connected to the ancestors who walked here once before. English is the greatest language in the world but Welsh is very very special!!
ive always wanted to witness buckingham palace in person. yet to have the chance to go. I hope you boys are doing more good in your singing and for yourself. happy journey and the wildest adventures boys. good job. you have a fan.
What a wonderful group of talented boys from the valleys of south Wales, performing in the Queen's Coronation Festival Gala at Buckingham Palace in the presence of The Queen. A joy to listen to the boys singing their hearts out, this experience will live on for years to come, with the boys. The BBC should have set up an overhead camera to capture more close up footage of the boys along with their music director Tim Rhys-Evans MBE. Cheers from Canada to Only Boys Aloud!!
Bloody brilliant. To think it all started as runners-up on Britain's Got Talent. You memorized me then and again now. Your country is proud of you I know, as am I. AND, @aftermidnite314, I couldn't agree with you more! God Bless you boys! You should be proud.
I am a retired pensioner from North Wales who has lived in Spain for 12 years. Listening to the choir singing all these songs we used to sing back home ,brings back many happy memories. My eyes are full of tears well done boys you really sing for Wales.

I am from Belarus, I do not understand a single word in Welsh. Still these songs make me so emotional!
Move back home...
I am in South Africa and these songs put a lump in my throat! I remember Danny Boy being sung at a family gathering when I was a child!

Just marvelous!

The patriotism emanates from them to no end.

I'm German but this incredible group of boys give me chills - ALL THE TIME!!!
How do you nominate someone for the Nobel Peace Prize? The conductor has done so much to improve lives and communities with these groups.
Yep he does deserve an honour fantastic teacher and leader and i am from London
I have a feeling this evening that has to a sister

To hear these boys sing right from their hearts would give goosebumps to anyone in any country. What a pleasure!
Wonderful - so great to hear that sound and see some familiar faces - plus lots of new lads. All brushed up for Her Majesty!
I hope they have more videos of the entire choir in 2014 and 2015. Very talented young men.
I’m an Aussie with a Welsh heritage. Good job, Guys!
What a wonderful group of talented boys from the valleys of south Wales, performing in the Queen's Coronation Festival Gala at Buckingham Palace in the presence of The Queen. A joy to listen to the boys singing their hearts out, this experience will live on for years to come, with the boys. The BBC should have set up an overhead camera to capture more close up footage of the boys along with their music director Tim Rhys-Evans MBE. Cheers from Canada to Only Boys Aloud!!
What a beautiful sound.
Bloody brilliant. To think it all started as runners-up on Britain's Got Talent. You memorized me then and again now. Your country is proud of you I know, as am I. AND, @aftermidnite314, I couldn't agree with you more! God Bless you boys! You should be proud.
The lads took the high road!! Well done!!
