Lovely the cinematics, very captivating.
It’s a very famous Welsh song. The title means “saucepan”.
Saucepan! Hahaha! Famous too!
Correction: little saucepan.
From what I’ve heard, all Welsh people can sing along …
Hi , very cool , but I didn’t recognize any of these songs
Hi! ♀
What songs do you listen to in other languages ( except English)?
French music I started listening from small until grown up, a wild mix, never stopped it, I guess if my French teacher knew she would be shocked first and then maybe a little proud (I was bad - one of my teachers said it’s not that I wouldn’t have talent but that I was just too lazy - aaaaah, vocabulary)
When I heard Sosban Fach the first time, I really liked it and by listening to other Welsh songs I became interested in Welsh to the point that I tried learning it a bit on Duolingo
@leerla73 iirc the lyrics are about this household where everything goes wrong
a little saucepan is boiling on the floor
a big saucepan is boiling on the stove
David the servant is unwell
Mary-Ann has hurt hur finger
and the cat scratched little Johnny’s face

This choir appeared on BGT with another Welsh song, after that I searched their other songs and discoverd Sosban Fach
How did it go? I did that too, for quite a while. I’m afraid I have forgotten a lot again too …
@leerla A new challenge for you:
Swiss German?
Currently, this song has been playing on repeat in my house (technically it’s not a language, it’s a dialect):
Linguistically, there’s no difference between a language and a dialect. That’s just a political decision.
Well, I now know how Welsh words should be pronounced and I can say greetings, but that’s all I learned
Dych ch’in hoffi coffi?
Dw i’n hoffi coffi a te
That is something I might listen to
Hi , songs besides English are mostly kpop. And some Korean OST from some classic kdramas.
I recently found out that a Dutch-language song by a Belgian group is very populair on Eastern-European and Asian weddings and parties as a dance song. It’s quite funny to me because the song is about a blacksmith who is living happily and then gets married to a woman who turns out to nag about everything and doesn’t let him meet up with his friends and drink beer with them and he regrets getting married to her
Here is the clearest video I could find that shows the dance
Hé, Laïs!
