Not heard Stuart sing before, one can only admire this wonderful performance. Well done sir..
He was my primary school teacher before he became famous. He had a great personality. 👍
Taught my brothers at Bargoed boys South Street, he was such a kind man. I was in the girls separate building next door...Great schools
A great voice too - great in the true sense.
I believe he also taught art in Bargoed North School in Llancayo Street. I left that school in either 1959 or 1960. I believe that the school has been demolished and now is houses. He is certainly a very excellent tenor.
A great memory to have ....from Ireland.
Probably the most underrated tenor of the past half-century! Wondrful range, tone and, as it so happens, a hell of a nice guy too! Brilliant Tenor!
I couldn't agree more, I absolutely love his voice, he always puts his heart and soul into all he sings. Simply wonderful. Thank you so much for your kind comments.
I don't think he was underrated in the operatic world. He sang in most of the great houses and made numerous recordings. He was considered by many to be the finest Mozart tenor of his time and was generally highly admired.
@@tonyashbridge2910 I totally agree. A voice in a million with the musicianship to go with it. Not everything the recording companies pressed him to sing really suited him but most of the time he was unsurpassable. I've so many very happy memories of his glorious singing. Thank you Stuart - an artist and a gent.
Beautiful song sung by a wonderful Welsh tenor, Stuart Burrows.. Great voice.
Have always been a huge fan of Stuart Burrows. Beautiful voice and of course so very proud he is Welsh, just like me. Thank you so much for the wonderful enjoyment you have given millions of people over the years.
The greatest Welsh love song ever written sung by the greatest Welsh Tenor who ever lived. Closer to Heaven every time its played.
Great voice but for that " feeling" in the voice ,I have to go for David Lloyd. Please listen to " Sul y Blodau " and not cry!
beautiful love song: merci.
The Welsh Tenors, what can one say? The best in the world. 100% so gifted.
A wonderful singer whom I had the privilege to hear many times. His artistry will never be forgotten. Thanks Stuart.
There is nothing better than the Welsh singing tears to my eyes!!
Isn't it just beautiful, as with all he sings, his voice moves me so much. He always puts his heart and soul into every word. I'm so pleased you enjoyed this, and thank you so much for your lovely comments.

Best ever Welsh song by the best Welsh voice!! Super Parry and Burrows.
I'm in total agreement with you, What a wonderful voice this man has. I'm so pleased you enjoy listening, Thank you for your lovely comments on these videos.
the greatest ever mun 👌👌👌
I see you appreciate great songs so please have a listen to Rhys Meirion singing " Sul y Blodau" Listen to the words & you will be moved. I had the original by David Lloyd, who I think was the greatest ever. It is available on C.D. Please enjoy & let me know what you think please!
A marvellous singer of a wonderful song.
What a lovely voice, god bless you Sir, from an Englishman.
He's a Welshman. I know him. We lived on the street (William Street) in Cilfynydd.
@@maggiliz Hello Margaret, he has a lovely voice, I have several Welsh singers & Welsh quires on my phone, I play them in my workshop when working, it helps me concentrate, I am an antique clock / watch & barometer restorer, Thank you very much for your message. google " James Chadburn clocks " good luck Margaret.
I think the 12 down votes must be from deaf people with no idea what a beatiful song is sung to perfection. It happens :-)
I couldn't agree more DRAIG4444, those who voted down wouldn't know a beautiful voice if it hit them in the head... Probably jealousy or similar, maybe they just can't accept the realization that they can't sing at all.. Thank you so much for appreciating this fine voice by this lovely man.
@@GrahamJBower Not biased - but hes my Dad lol
@@DRAIG4444 Really.!. are you serious? If so, how proud you must feel having a father with such a wonderful voice and career. I can't tell you the pleasure I have had over these years listening to him. It's so nice to hear from you, and I sincerely hope and trust your Dad is well. I would be so pleased if you could pass on my kindest regards and best wishes to him...😊 Graham.
It makes me cry....I remember our holiday in Llandudno with the welsh hospitality and kindness.
I wish we can be back in time.
Agatha, I know just what you mean.... I'm the same, Music can evoke such beautiful and fond memories of times past we have known and experienced life. I too cry to many songs that take me back to better times. Thank you so much for your lovely comment. (I had a shop in Llandudno in 1990, it's a lovely place)
@@GrahamJBower
Thanks for your comments Graham.
We had a correspondence a time with the owners of the bed and breakfast in Llanddudno. Zo special and Nice people. Unfortennely the man passed away in 2021....but we met them december a couple of years ago as they the have visit the Netherlands.
Sorry about my bad English...I learned hihi 45 yaers ago(the last lesson) time flies
Wonderful effortless singing from a Master
❤just so lovely lost for words
I consider this to be one of the finest performances ever. 💕
Yes, I agree, it's a song that is loved dearly my many people, as the comments below all show. Thank you for your lovely comment, it makes me very happy to know that everyone enjoys such a wonderful voice as Stuarts. Thanks. Graham.
Certainly a magnificent voice at the height of it’s powers. I consider this to be one of top three performances I’ve heard. Sublime.
Sometimes a voice leaves you lost for words it is just too beautiful to describe. Rest in peace Stuart and thank you.
I'm so pleased you enjoy Stuarts magnificent voice. He is now 90 and I understand he enjoys his retirement, and spends a great deal of wonderful time with his family in Wales. He is, and always will be my favourite Tenor, with the most wonderful voice, that we are all able to continue to listen to from these videos and all the marvellous recordings we have, for many years to come. God bless you Stuart, from my heart. Graham.
I love this performance. I also love the version by Ryan Davies. So different but both so beautiful and moving.
I can only agree with all the wonderful comments posted by many people on this song and performance. It is beautiful, and I want to thank you for your lovely comments.
Sad that all this beautiful music has mostly vanished. Just vanished into thin air. In most cases replaced by 'garbage'.
I steadfastly request you rethink your statement mate, ruclips.net/channel/UC7WCtSNKb7MGjdzu8Btkg_g
uncle louie ....
Oh how I agree with you......makes me sad, that it’s replaced with a lot of ugliness and anger.
@@Thwapwhacket That has to be a joke right? 😜
Still alive and well here Uncle Louie. Come to Wales and hear for yourself.
It should be the Welsh National Anthem.
Stuart Burrows is a beautiful singer. First time I heard him sing was in my home town of Wales a long time ago and my Great Uncle was playing the organ for him.
This stirs me to tears every time.
Yes, it's beautiful, and I'm so pleased you enjoyed this. Thank you for your wonderful comment. Take look at his other songs I've uploaded (if you haven't already that is!) he puts his heart and soul into all he sings. I'm certain you'll enjoy them as I do.

This sublime singing of the greatest love song.moves me like no other.thank you for loading this.
Hi, thanks for your lovely comment. I am always so happy to hear that someone is enjoying these songs. I am such a lover of Stuart Burrows, and all he sings, every time putting his heart and soul into whatever he is performing for us. Simply wonderful...
Brings me back to RAF Aberporth,Bethesda,Snowdonia or the Brecon Beacons - back to somewhere in Wales..
This inspiring music has not vanished.
A long period may have transpired where we didn't feel that we needed it.
Now, it seems, we need it.
So glad to have such wonderful interpreters...
This is a wonderful sentiment. May we borrow it?
@@rmso Certainly; with pleasure. -rs
What a magnificent lyric tenor voice
Written by"A little boy from Merthyr always" these were the words from Joseph Parry wherever he went in the world.
A beautiful song of unrequited love sung by one of the greatest (and underrated) singers. He is living in St Fagans near Cardiff and doesn't have the greatest health!
I couldn't agree more Chris, I have always thought Stuart was by far the very best Tenor I have heard, he always puts such feeling into everything he sings, and can bring joy to everyone who hears. I am so sorry though to read your last line, that he doesn't have the greatest health at the moment, I truly wish him a full and healthy recovery... God Bless you Stuart. Thank you Chris for you lovely comments. Graham..
❤wishing stuart all the very best hope hes feeling well soon gentleman met stuart many years ago what a lovely kind man be is
Sometimes a singing voice is not just defined by the musical notes on a stave: rather, it's where you come from and the cultural heritage that resides in your heart. He is unmistakably Welsh.
Precioso!
Beautiful and touching... heart-lifting... ⭐️💖⭐️
Thank you for this remarkable and exquisite post! 🙏🍀
Hi Graham- I once sang Myfanwy myself in Parry's home- in a version of my " Irish Welsh".
A pale imitation of the great Burrows!! His songs with piano accompaniment really show the pure sound of the man even better than thosw with orchestra!
Written by a little boy who lived in a cottage inside the merthyr ironworks and always said.A little boy from Merthyr always he was proud although poor Cymru Am Byth
Stunning
Had the great pleasure of Stuart singing the tenor part in Messiah at St Julians High School choir 1963/4. Great introduction to classical music.
Perfection!
EPIC I love this .
Brought tears to my eyes.
Really pleased you like this, it would be a hard person who wasn't moved by this song and the voice of Stuart Burrows singing it with such emotion. Thank you for your lovely comment.
Outstanding performance. Thank you.
Thank you for posting these wonderful performances of Stuart Burrows. I discovered him some years ago searching the record shops LP collections of John McCormack. I came across Stuart's 3 volume set done for Decca and fell in love with his singing immediately! Magnificent!
You are most welcome, and I am always so happy when someone as yourself, appreciates wonderful singing and music. I have loved Stuart Burrows singing for many years, I only wish I had more video recordings, but alas, I have edited and uploaded all I have now. Once again, thank you so much for your comments.
Beautiful rendition - I remember seeing Stuart and his son occassionally having a Sunday pint at the Quarry Inn Fairwater many years ago. He always smiled at everyone, seemed a very nice man RIP
I agree, It is beautiful isn't it, Stuart is, and I reckon, always will be my favourite Tenor. By the way, I am a little confused with you writing RIP. it makes me think you might believe he is no longer with us, but I am so happy to say, he is, thank God. It will be a very, very sad day for me should this occur. Thank you so much for your kind comment though, I've never had the pleasure of meeting him, but it's wonderful to know that you did, and that he always smiled at people, and is a kind man, with a beautiful voice. 😊
I apologise To Stuart for my innacurate statement of his death of course I am delighted he is still with us - a fantastic singer and welsh icon@@GrahamJBower
Wow! Love this
He had a beautiful voice.. reminds me of Jerry Hadley....
Class.
Bellissimo!!! I love this song!!!
Just sublime !
Thank you for this delight.
I'm so pleased you enjoyed this, and do take a listen to some other of Stuart Burrows videos I've uploaded, I'm sure you'll like them. Thanks again for your lovely comment. Graham.
Each time I hear Kenneth sing this it appears to improve each time.
What a superb singer i met him a few times coming from wales myself he lived a few miles from me they dont come mutch better than this god bless ,and yes i can sing this realy well colin carington south wales x
Hi Colin, thanks for your lovely comments. I only wish I had met him, I love him so much, his voice gives me so much pleasure, and I find his wonderful phrasing and everything about his singing very moving. I only wish that they would repeat the 'Stuart Burrows Sings' series shown in the early 80's. I know it would be so welcome in these dark days. Anyway, thanks again. x
@@GrahamJBower Hi graham yes a fantastic true welshman it would be nice to show his 80s shows his voice will never fade as log as we have a folowing like youself .i played a lot of his songs today and being St Davids day in wales great .god bless you .and Rip Stuart .
Hi i play during the somer holidays down in St Davids me and sister my late aunt lived there fantastic place god bless you .regards colin carrington
Just makes me weep!
beautiful lyric voice!
My family are from Cilfynydd home of Stuart Burrows .
Spine tingling wat can u say magnificant
Can anyone help me, was this song sung in movie How Green Was My Valley? Love the Welsh singing from individuals to choirs, Boys Alone singing brings tears to my eyes. Loved the time in 1978 that I spent in Wakes, mainly Gwynedd, and hiking thru Snowdonia, thanks for any help on song, it happens when the miners finish work and stand outside a house and sing a song for the mother of the family
Yes
Beautiful
wundervoll !!!!!!!!!!
Watched Aled Jones at 50 tonight on TV and Simon (Stuart!! As Draig4444 corrected me on 😏) Burrows was featured which brought me here - A truly fine singer which I’m sure the Welsh people are very proud of, it being a nation of proud singing tradition with a beautiful language to go with...👍 Us Irish have Frank Patterson and John McCormack to be proud of...We have a lovely language too which is not as widely spoken today for reasons best explained another day...you won’t find it in any English history books…
Stuart - not Simon lol
It took someone 2 years to spot that and reply…lol…
Da iawn
I’ve had 5 gals after me this reminds me of our breakups
Abeautiful Welsh song.I heard it sung in the documentry ofAberfan by a great voice,but dont know who.but tried to find who>
Was it this ? ruclips.net/video/pE-39vSOoUE/видео.html It was absolutely beautiful.
I don't have a drop of Welsh blood and I don't understand a word of Welsh, but this performance left me a total mess. Stuart Burrows - a truly great singer. What is it about the Welsh and beautiful singing?
I love this performance by Stuart Burrows, and it matters not that you don't understand the words.The music, and beautiful performance alone is able to convey all the meaning you wish to take from it. I'm really happy when someone comments as you have, thank you.
@@GrahamJBower the first time I heard this song I thought of all thoses people who lost their lives in the pit disaster which wiped out the whole school 😥
@@garethwilkins3638 Hello Gareth, I think that disaster will stay in many peoples memories,...
On learning a bit of welsh on duo lingo. Listen with your heart and soul. This song is freaking gorgeous as is suo gan and Paris dinogad.
Stupid auto fill. Pais dinogad.
Pathos!
Prydferth iawn!
I am not Welsh, so I do not understand the empathy in the meaning of the Welsh songs. I loved his great tenor voice in "Abide with Me."
Funny you should say that. He says of all the things he recorded, the version of Abide with me with the Ambrosian Singers was the 2nd best thing he ever sang [[He's my Dad - 90 on Tuesday]. It was also his Fathers Fav song.
The first was - same record - the Lords Prayer ruclips.net/video/nz_z4Hgg5uI/видео.html
And in particular - the phrase " Hallowed beeeeeee" where he pulls it right back.
Beautiful, absolutely beautiful, but he’s no Ryan Davies.

Ardderchog Diolch
Coeth, mor arbennig a theimladwy wir. Ffefrin fy nhad, Stuart Burrows. Diolch o galon.
Stuart Burrows fydd fy hoff Tenor bob amser. Diolch yn fawr am eich sylwadau caredig.
@@GrahamJBower Diolch Graham. Chwaraeais Stuart Burrows yn canu emynau a chaneuon gwerin pan oedd fy nhad yn marw. Tenor arbennig iawn x
