  • I can make a DVD copy of this clip and 'The Treble' for anyone interested. Just e-mail me.

  • It's also a lot to do with training methods which have changed over the years. Very few people know how to train boys voices now.

  • It was pure chance I managed to record this years ago. i just happened to have VCR going early in the morning and captured it by chance.

  • Please do not post rude and offensive remarks here.

  • It's not unusual, Rick, for a boy to keep his singing voice that long if he's well trained. It's remarkable just how many rude comments this video has received. obviously jealousy.

  • Gosh, what a bright, intelligent young gentleman. It's a pleasure to listen to this talented person singing and talking. He got a generous share of gift and talent. The rest of us will have to struggle and admire.

  • I am also a Boy Soprano, I never knew one can become that famous by being a Boy Soprano

  • Wow, thanks for sharing this!

  • Its actually quite rare to have a treble that lives up to 16 years old anyway...

    what a gift

  • "I usually do it in the back of trains and cars and things....the homework I mean."

    Lol.

  • This Aled Jones is not gay at all. He is married, and he and his wife have two children. However, Aled Haydn Jones, who is six years younger than this guy and is a BBC radio personality, is openly gay. They are two different people.

    Why do we even care who is gay or not? Live and let live. There is enough homophobia in this world.

  • He was a charming boy and he is a charming man. And he did become a television presenter as he hoped. Meanwhile, yes, he's a married man, a father, etc., but people always (in the case of a man) resort to the same old homophobic invective when they want to be foul and abusive. All over Youtube it's the same. I even saw a channel about a golfer, good grief, and there too his detractors use the same crazy homophobic insults. It has nothing at all to do with homosexuality. And it's sick.

  • He's still a great singer!
