John Owen-Jones 2009 Album - 10.Anthem

[ From the musical "Chess" ]

No man
No madness
Though their sad power may prevail
Can posses, conguer, mycountry's heart
They rise to fail

She is enernal
Long Before nations' lines wew drawn
When flag flew
When no armies stood
My land was born

And you ask me why I love her
Though wars, death and despair
She is the constant
We who don't care
And you wonder wiil I leave her
But now?

I cross over borders but I'm still there now

How can I love her?
Where would I start?
Let man's petty nations tear themselves apart
My land's only borders lie around my heart

@UltimateMoose You're lucky to see him :) He's WONDERFUL!!!

What is it about his voice. Josh Groban - great. Alfie Boe - top, but there's an unique and totally surreal quality to JOJ's voice that is unsurpassable. Maybe it's because he's Welsh. The land of song is truely in his blood. What a man!

2 people have borders around their ears. They can't hear anything.

[Brothergeppetto]

More real emotion than any of the other singers who I've heard perform this. JOJ has such a fantastic presence.
