Why I’m Proud To Be From The Land Of Song…

I have never found a country that produces such beautiful music as Wales does, and this is one of the factors which makes me very proud to call myself Wales, to live here, speak the language and, more than anything, to sing the songs. To prove my point, I have a video of a choir – called “Only Boys Aloud” – singing in Welsh. If you’re in Britain, you’ll probably recognize them from the current series of Britain’s Got Talent. In the first episode, they stunned with their audition in which they stormed the stage (there was about 125 of them!) and sang “Calon Lan”, one of the most famous Welsh songs as far as I’m aware. For those of you who haven’t seen it, this is the video of their audition –

 

and this is them at what I think is the National Eisteddfod last year although if I’m wrong feel free to correct me 🙂

Listen, enjoy and realize why I am so proud to be from gwlad y gan 🙂
