This type of singing, with a large male choir, is typical in Wales (United Kingdom). Coal miners were particularly famous for it. This is close harmony singing. Originally it was used for hymn singing and the Welsh have a particluarly good one called "Bread of Heaven" which is their national song. If you like this type of singing, you might like that too.
In 2001 my all female choir sang this song and it was amazing, we performed it beautifully and melodically. Basically sounds the same, but softer and sadder because they were female voices.
this is an amazing song. i'm doing this for my provinces honors band. it's amazing

they sound pretty good but they sung it a little too fast and they need to work on all singing at one time for harmony.

It would be weird for girls to sing this one, seeing as it's about a girl...
