	TSK! lol I thought some of the rugby fans at least would know it ;) "Calon Lân is a Welsh song, the words of which were written in the 19th century by Daniel James (23 January 1848 - 11 March 1920) to a tune by John Hughes (1872–1914).[1] The song is often referred to as a hymn but it isnt a hymn, it is a song associated with Welsh rugby union, being sung before almost every Test match involving the Welsh national team."

	Added from my duplicate thread that no one replied to and only 1 person looked at! (been the same since I joined the site!) I don't usually watch except when a friend's daughter was on there but tonight I have caught some of it. I loved the lad singing and playing the guitar, the two men dancing - The Sugar Dandies and now the choir of young lads. They were brilliant. Is Simon going to turn gay and run off with David Walliams? They look sooooo good together! Jacky :-)

	A few good acts tonight. Loved the choir though, all those boys, what a choir he has there. And the young couple at the end, he was excellent but she complimented him and her voice will mature well I think. And yes, The sugar Dandies, fantastic dancing by them, and the young guitarist. Anyone catch The Voice on BBC? quite an interesting twist to make the competitors choose their mentor.
