    It is a very nationalistic song, closely linked to independence. I'm not totally sure the FAW should go down this route if I'm perfectly honest.
    You don't really think I was comparing the first three songs with 'Ten German bombers'?

    I was making a subtle point. Perhaps too subtle?

    I've always assumed the patriotism and promotion of Welsh culture was a marketing strategy used by the FAW?

    That's a really interesting article and I'm glad you posted it because I missed it. I'm really impressed with what the FAW are doing after reading that.

    I remember the first time I heard Yma o hyd down the City but can't remember the game, Ali played it.

    Tune-wise he was the master.
