If I was a judge, I would hit the golden buzzer. I love that I could hear each of their unique voices that fits perfectly and they are absolutely pitch perfect. I love that they enjoyed singing it and just the smiles on not only their faces, but also the audiences’ faces. The fact that everyone was clapping and dancing to the song tells that this song is truly a banger and you can’t resist just participating. This also brought so many memories when my school music club did this song for the high school graduation and we had six main singers and the 30-40 members singing along and doing the choreography and it was successful as ever! I do wish however, they did the entire song and I know it’s 5 minutes long and the same chorus is sung twice but I don’t want the joy to end.

[@barnowl5774]

I followed 'The Welsh of the West End' throughout CoVid and beyond in Melbourne, Australia (where we had a long, if not the longest lockdown in the world). I was shocked to hear that this is the FIRST time they have sung together in person. I'm an Aussie of Welsh parents . I hope that they form a touring group and also visit Australia. I'll be at the concert!

[@c0ronariu5]

That’s not entirely accurate. They’ve done concerts in London and glasgow(?) I think, and one was at the Royal Albert Hall for gods sake. It was on their Instagram. What I think they meant was that it was the first time they had ALL attended the same performance and hadn’t missed out on anyone.
