amazing. she really does have the voice of an angel.

[BlueAndWhiteZebra]

bloody hell, that is good.

I'm not Welsh (and I don't particularly care for some of Charlotte Church's life choices) but I cannot help but be moved to tears everytime I hear this. I've tried in vain to figure out why this is. Its not difficult to see why all Welshmen seem to grow two foot taller when this is sung. I think, perhaps, it is the sheer pride that so obviously fills these Welsh guys that touches me. They have every right - what a fantastic nation and heritage.

wonder if she can still hit that note ?

it´s rather difficult to decide what is the best in this video, whether Charlotte´s beauty, her voice, the extraordinary beautiful song, the men´s choir..... one thing is for sure, this is one out of the pack, too few interpretations like this 24 karat golden gem, let us dream forever with the voice of not an angel but of THE ANGEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
