    I am an Aussie ,lived in Ogmore by Sea for 6mths in ’74 Max Boyce played one night at the Craig Eos hotel. Have never forgotten it. We sang and drank till the wee hours.Saw my first live game of rugby at Cardiff Arms. I still feel as if I have been to Mecca .God bless Wales ,and of course Max Boyce

    WHY doesn't this have 1,000x more views, and 1,000x more likes? May be nearly 6½ years later and I still love listening to these lads (all now men) singing with such heart and emotions.

    Max Boyce was visibly moved by this tribute.
    I remember him as a fantastic comic orator, and now he's being lauded by a special group from the Valleys

    As a US rugby player to get to play my first season abroad in Wales was fantastic. When I was alone many times in my host families house, I would crank up their one Max Boyce album and he became a young player's brother by song.

    I am a proud Welsh man from the largely Welsh speaking community ofYstalyfera in the Swansea valley. Ive been living in London for over 20 years and I love going back home to hear these songs sung in the local pubs at the end of the night. Well done to Only Boys Aloud for keeping this tradition going. I feel very moved every time I hear you sing. You bring the feeling of 'Hiraeth' ... Well done boys. We are all very proud of you . Keep the singin going and keep the Welsh language going ! You are amazing. Arbennig o dda !
