Have listened to this so many times, and it still makes me shiver and cry with musical pleasure❤️. I’m not Welsh, but a 70 y/o Cornishman ,and the voices of these lads are just magical. Thank you lads and Tim

You can see the passion shown by the conductor on BGT and all of the members of the choir, beautiful song and beautiful rendition of it. You can see they are all proud of their heritage. Excellent.

Absolutely joyful to listen to.These lads can be justifiably proud of themselves.Their enjoyment is obvious to see and it definitely is reflected in their vocals.I'd happily pay good money to go see them in concert.

My heart goes out to this choir and it's amazing leader from Denmark 💗🇩🇰

I love these guys! Watched them perform Calon Lan on BGT and I can't get enough of them! Love the Don't Stop Believin! I hope they come to America because I would LOVE to see them perform!

respect and love from Palestine. what a punch of lads, amazing!

I love the conductor's energy!

these boys are indeed good...i dont understand what they are singing but i do enjoy listening to them...the melody is really good...greetings from the philippines!

Guys I am Cornish,I have visited Wales on many occasions and there is one thing that sticks in my mind more than anything else,how you are all proud of your Language and Heritage,I only wish in Cornish Schools they would teach the Cornish Language as they teach Welsh in Wales. Not only are you a Credit to this Country of ours,you are all a Credit to WALES,but most of all and above all else,YOU ARE A CREDIT TO YOURSELVES.Brilliant Guys.OUTSTANDING. ONAN HAG OL,ONE AND ALL.

there are a lot of bad things going on in this world............but these boys bring joy,happiness and are the epitome of togetherness,thank you TIM AND ALL!

I agree ... really do love Calon Lan. I can't help it.... Yo! Just a lovely song in word and spiirit ...A Pure Heart!

What a voices, amazing choir! Guys, you're fantastic! This have to give some hope in your region and in all the same difficult places in this world!

I was pretty hooked to Jonathon and Charlotte until I saw this. Now, I'm rooting for these boys. They could not have picked a better song to perform...massive fan here in the US.

They made me cry. It was the most beautiful song and they were Amazing!!!!

no matter the language... they're amazing!!

I have said it before, and I mean it even more. This organization should be nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. The leadership has made such an impact on each of these young mens' lives and those who experience their singing.

Thank you for Translating it to English it makes it more enjoyable to know now what is being sung, again Thank you.

Be proud of your heritage boys! :) Awesome!

I had never heard this song till sung on BGT, but I love it, and can't get it out of my head! Sure wish I could sing it in welsh!? Good Luck and God Bless!

This isn't just Only Boys Aloud, the Only Men Aloud guys are there as well helping them out as well. Love them both, adore this song so much it stirs the soul. Only Men Aloud was the last concert I went to before I left Wales in 2010, I took my mam as a treat at Christmas. Keep up the good work boys and pob lwc with BGT.

i love the welsh version!

From the southern lands downunder our southern lights will once again align with the northern lights and together they will illuminate in each one of you all that is bloody awesome about being honest, passionate and pure - Only great things come from those who only seek to fulfill there destiny - Yours will be night to remember! All the best from New Zealand.

I love listening to Only Boys Aloud but I much prefer their song choices to be Welsh hymns rather than American Rock. I'm from the U.S. and it isn't so much that I don't appreciate their efforts, it's just that I so love to hear them sing the hymns. These young men are incredible!!!

- what the Welsh are world famous for - We need them, as the older fella's are getting on a bit. GREAT - Wales is on the comeback... with their massive spiritual music.... I have an olde Welsh hymn book, small, 1830 and has 1,000 Welsh hymns in it ! and they're long one's too ! We need this Welsh music today more than ever...

wow.. I heard this song for the first time now but simply love it. Those boys can sing !!!

Loved to hear some of the other singers. What great voices. Congrats to this fantastic group of singers.!!!!!

I absolutely love this choir!! Does anyone know if they've ever sung "Hallelujah"? I bet they'd do a KILLER job of it!!

Just amazing! 👏🏼👏🏼

Pure Heart ❤️ love it

OMG this is so beautiful, gives me peace in my heart... love it!! i hope this boys will win BGT!!

This must be a reason for young boys to join a choir. What is more beautiful than experience this kind of music.

New swedish fan. I just hope they'll make an album soon. I'd love to listen to more music of this kind.

Beautiful voices

What a great performance guys...Greetings from California!

They make it cool to be in a choir!

Never been so proud of our small place called Wales even the south of Wales we all are good

Donald when my mother in law came back on hols from the USA we took her to nth Wales to see her old home whilst there we ate in a local cafe and all folks were speaking in Welsh she got up from the table and tore a strip off some locals for making apparently rude remarks about us they got quite a shock believe you me.When needing visitors to spend cash in ones area you do not insult them.I have been in the hotel business and learnt to speak a few words of each language to make people feel welcome when they came.

These guys are fabulous. I hope the camaraderie and good times last them a life time!

I'm a new Canadian fan.....beautiful!!!

Calon Lan gets me every time. Fantastic! What I like about these guys is that they are singing because they want to and not because they have to. Brilliant!!

New belgian fan here. They are amazing

These guys rock!!!! Good luck on BGT!

Just saw these guys on Britain's Got Talent and they were awesome xx

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 goodnessIs 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. (Chorus) 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.

@stevenmadrigal3110

Gives you goosebumps because of the musical cord... each human being has a sense of sound... music combines the sound into cords and creates notes.. and with a choir you are listening to many notes and layers... and with layers creates power and sound.. the goosebumps you feel are from you could say the musical layers and resonance in the voices and the layers in the music... its a lot for the mind to take in at once.. and are brains are sensitive... hence why words and music mean so much.

I listen to some Welsh folk songs and the mystery and shivers it brings me, it's like something magical and mysterious and impossibly beautiful all rolled into one language ...

Thanks!! :) I was so impressed with the first time I heard them, I have listened to them over and over and OVER again!! Calon Lan was new to me the first time they did it and I had goosebumps and the hair on my arms was standing straight up. Tim is to be congratulated on the work he continues to do for these young men.

Wow! I watched this in awe & wonder, tears rolling down my cheeks. Their families and friends must be very proud as this is just fantastic!! Da Iawn!!

You do yourselves and your country proud - great to listen to such a great bunch of voices - keep it coming!

very well done boys.. Ireland wishes you all well.. keep up the good work..

wow they keep on going higher with their performances ,well done Wales.

they are an inspiration, listening to them, thinking about the youth in Wales (as per their interview on BGT) my heart fills with hope for their futures!!! simply outstanding!!!

So far, they are my favorited in the 2012 BGT competition. Thanks for sharing with us. Lorraine

AMAZING!!!!! I love it and I want to hear more 💗. The leader of the choir is such an inspirational human being!!!

Absolutely beautiful...

I hope they sing don't stop believing in the semi finals!! they are awesome!!

Love the boys and the song. Cannot stop listening to it!

This is what heaven sounds like. I love, love, love them and want to listen to them all the time. Where can I buy the CDs....

Wonderful, an absolute credit to Wales. I will vote for them on BGT! ;-)

Beautiful voices. :)

How could there be a question of how good Wales is when boys like this come from there. This is only a small segments of the kids. Maybe not all singers but surely all worthy of the title Welsh and proud of it.

Beautiful.

i'm glad ppl love journey even in wales makes me so happy

Keep up the good work enjoy all of you with so many look lile you are having so much fun love to hear you

Absolutely beautiful song and the choir gives me chills!

Well done boys. Saw you in Cardiff - BRILLIANT.

Loves eeing these boys. Myndin favourite singers.

bois bach Wales and beyond are all proud of you......Its cool for all men to sing (boys too) You cant beat a male voice choir, and when its also welsh then my friend you have the alignment of the musical planets....Its in the blood and dont let anyone persuade you otherwise. Respect.

i love how energetic the conductor... :D

though I don't understand the lyrics yet I really like the melody. The boys are fantastic. Their voices are angelic....

Love to hear joyful young male voices lifted in song, the Welsh is entrancing ...

I've been watching and listening to this video a lot lately. Absolutely brilliant sound on both songs. I love the way the harmonies are layered. Well done everyone 👏 👍

Awesome! Makes me wanna sing with them!

Amazing!!!! I am in love with all of them!

Very Good Loved every second! talk about goosebumps! and a tear in the eye! love all of these boys! xoxo

This is how amazing they are at Calon Lan, to my mind: they make Don't Stop Believing seem like the LESS awesome song xD

Excellent music. Really talented boys. I always have an interesting reaction to hearing "pop" songs in languages other than English--Welsh, particularly. The language intensifies the experience for me--and I like the Don't Stop Believing song anyway. :)

Que lindo.... DEUS os abençoe grandemente.........

Holy god!!!!!!! I gotta stop watching things like this, me body goes all tingly.......

These boys all deserve a fantastic future can someone please give Wales some industry never mind hs2 go to Wales instead

So why are you even saying something like that? I don't care about your sexuality anymore than I care about theirs. It is rude and hurtful among many other things. Tim and the young men he teaches to sing both melody and harmony are so talented and if I were from Wales, I would be so incredibly proud to have them represent my country. They are awesome singers!!

I can't understand Welsh, but this is beautiful!!!

This is amazing!! I feel very privileged to know at least 4 people who are part of this amazing choir!! Da Iawn PAWB!!! XD xx

The Welsh Dragon, roars! "Don't stop believing" - if Only Boys Aloud needed a motto, then surely that's it. God bless you, guys!

A lyrical flowing language of magical poetry.

I'm watching your videos from France and I hope I will have the chance to see you live one day !!

now THAT's pretty much the only reason i watched bgt this year..and i dont understand a word of it :) shows how amazing it is, cos you dont need to know the language to be moved.

I am so proud to be Welsh

Great song and choir

They can and do sing in English since they are all bilingual but Calon Lan is a Welsh song one of the many from the vast collection of Welsh poems and songs that of which some people are not aware. This language is derived from the language spoken in Britain 2000 years ago much changed of course (and like those in the rest of Europe) when the Romans and later when the Angles and Saxons arrived on those shores. Not everybody knows this. Thought you might like to though.

Good try ,however, the Welsh language is known to be the oldest European language. You are limiting the date to AD while it is well documented that the Welsh were speaking before the Roman occupation. So try again Donald.

Ian Carey Of course. The Celtic tribes that met the Romans in (when was it) 54 BC did not speak the Welsh that we speak today but spoke an antecedent langage from which the Welsh language (Cymraeg) was developed and that is why we Welsh often think speak proudly of our language as Yr Hen Iaith ( the Old Language). The language was influenced by Latin and there are many words that were borrowed from latin for example Ysgol (school), llyfr (book) and many that owe their origin to its Indo-European roots for example plentyn (children) mynydd (mountain). Of course there are many words of Anglo-Saxon origin or Norman French. I find it strange that the Romano-Celtic language of Great Britiain influenced the language of the Anglo Saxons so little and apart from place names in Scotland, Wales and Cornwall have left little trace. As you know before the Roman occupation of Europe the numerous Celtic tribes were spread from the Atlantic Ocean to east to Turkey and from the Rhine River south to the Mediterranean. The invaded Italy at one point and sacked Rome and were believed by the more sophisticated Greeks to be barbarians. I am not a expert philologist but I do find languges fascinating.
