I've heard this incredible love song by Maeve, by Enya, by the incomparable Dame Joan Sutherland and the GODDESS Jessye Norman, but Lim Hyung Joo's version is without a doubt the most charming rendition I've ever heard. *Standing ovation!!!*
Oh, what a cutie! This is such a lovely song, and as long as he stays away from the second verse, about all those noble, brave knights asking for the _maiden's_ hand, there's no reason a man can't sing it to good effect.
I think he did well, even though some of the pronunciations are a little eccentric. Not everyone can get them all correct, and that's including English speakers: "I drea-hempt I dwe-helt in mar-harble halls..." At least he never made THAT error.
I think that correct pronunciation is necessary when singing another language, even if you don't understand the word. Alot of people who sing professionally think this. That doesn't mean that this singer doesn't have a nice voice though.
The audience probably wouldn't be able to tell his pronunciation was off as they all look Korean and i agree he is far from perfect but i think for someone singing in a language so different from his own he made a jolly good go of it .Even Sumi Jo has difficulty pronouncing vowels
haha, Enya is in a league of here own. and everyone else is far behind her, in this style of singing. but, this guy has way of singing this song. nice :D i might try and sing this song, if I can find the instrumental..

Thank You sissel0046 for posting this.
I came across Lim Hyung Joo quite by chance,and I was quite amazed.
This is not an easy to bring off.It is quite slow with a few changes of tempo and dynamics,but he certainly brings if off.
Although I am a very fussy opera freak,his voice is direct and very touching.
I am now off to Amazon to see if there are any discs of him there.
Amazing what you can discover on YouTube isn't it.

Hmm... I really wouldn't choose this song for a guy to sing. Not just the words, but the tune also seems to fit female interpretation better.

Quite childish a rendering. Still a lot of work ahead.
The song is truly beautiful, and difficult to perform after all those incredible, amazingly gifted women...
