    This takes me back to when I worked as a musician on the film 'Empire of the Sun'. Lovely singing, Cai! I am a Singing teacher and Welsh, this is what I try to achieve with all my trebles. Lovely focused tone, breath control, intonation, and musical phrasing.

      I too am pleased with Cai. When I first heard this beautiful, beautiful song, I don't know what happened exactly, but it DID bring a tear or two to my eye, and it put a monstrous lump in my throat very near the size of Jupiter. That is no joke -- Wales is the Land of Song, truly, and I love, with all my heart, the Welsh love of the voice!
      I wish more people in this world could understand better just how musicians like Cai make this crazy, hectic, and sometimes all-around twisted world a better place, yes?
      Oh, how very proud I am of him! I can't express it more. *tears in my eyes*

    From the beauty of the harp, to the double bass and violins coupled to the young man’s mastery of the lyrics he is voicing backed up by a capable choir, the mechanics of this magic are magnificent. The work involved to arrive at the finished product always amazes me as the musician works the instrument so delicately while the vocalist manipulates their talent through precise control to arrive at what amounts to a masterpiece. Having been involved in this field, so much happens to get here. Bravo to all. That was a delight to behold.

I've sure I've listened to it over a thousand times since then and I'm still overwhelmed every time I hear it.

      More mythical clap-trap! It's depressing to see the credit for such a talent being deflected away from the person who has that talent. This beautiful living being is the ultimate product of the tens of thousands of years of microscopically small advances made by the generation-on-generation evolution which has created the modern human being, with all its strengths and all its weaknesses, all its joy and all its sadness, all its goodness and all its evil. Let us rejoice in humanity, its reality and all its most magnificent qualities and achievements, the better to address its many failings.
      I pity you for your betrayal of your own species. I detest ignorance and delusion, and wish each person who suffers from them a prompt and complete recovery.

    I have heard many versions of this song, often by boy trebles, however, in my opinion this is by far the best.
    Cai has the voice of an angel, but what's more is he truly feels the music he sings. It's not enough to just sing the notes and lyrics, the singer must put his soul into it. And Cai does just that. No matter that his voice will change, he has The Gift.
    Added to his solo is a perfect accompaniment, strings and the harp are meant for this piece.
    Brilliantly done, and thank you so much for sharing your gift with us.
