-The winner -and last choir standing is... | 0:00:01 | 0:00:04 | |
-..Only Men Aloud! | 0:00:05 | 0:00:07 | |
-Only Men Aloud. | 0:00:08 | 0:00:09 | |
-The Welsh choir -that came to public attention... | 0:00:10 | 0:00:13 | |
-..when they won the Last Choir -Standing competition in 2008. | 0:00:13 | 0:00:17 | |
-Everything has changed for -Only Men Aloud since that moment. | 0:00:17 | 0:00:22 | |
-They've recorded two albums... | 0:00:23 | 0:00:24 | |
-..reaching number one -in the classical charts. | 0:00:25 | 0:00:29 | |
-They're the best -male voice choir in the world. | 0:00:29 | 0:00:32 | |
-They've signed a five-album deal -and finished a successful UK tour. | 0:00:32 | 0:00:37 | |
-They make you laugh and cry. -It's entertainment all the way. | 0:00:39 | 0:00:42 | |
-They've taken choral singing -to the next level. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:46 | |
-Now they want to conquer America. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:48 | |
-It's an important time for the -choir. Our dream could come true. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:54 | |
-We look at four crucial months -for the UK's most famous choir... | 0:00:56 | 0:01:00 | |
-..and the ten years -since they were formed. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:04 | |
-From Tredegar to New York | 0:01:09 | 0:01:12 | |
-Cardiff, mid-February. | 0:01:21 | 0:01:23 | |
-Only Men Aloud meet for their -three-hour biweekly rehearsal. | 0:01:23 | 0:01:29 | |
-Choreographer Debbie Chapman -is busy warming up the lads. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:33 | |
-The warm-ups are hard. -Debbie works us to the bone. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:38 | |
-Not for us! It's easy for us. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:41 | |
-Speak for yourself! -I struggle a bit. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:44 | |
-Their tenth birthday concert -is fast approaching. | 0:01:47 | 0:01:51 | |
-It's only ten days -until the concert. | 0:01:55 | 0:01:57 | |
-We're under pressure because -the place is a lot smaller. | 0:01:57 | 0:02:01 | |
-So we're running out of time. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:06 | |
-The boys must concentrate tonight. | 0:02:06 | 0:02:09 | |
-They must remember every movement -and every note. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:14 | |
-But they're not all concentrating. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:23 | |
-Musical director Tim Rhys-Evans -isn't happy. | 0:02:24 | 0:02:27 | |
-That was mezzoforte and it took me -four bars to get you to stop! | 0:02:27 | 0:02:31 | |
-We like having fun and sometimes -we don't know when to stop. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:38 | |
-So Tim has been strict with us -tonight, which is necessary. | 0:02:39 | 0:02:44 | |
-That's the only way to be -disciplined and get things done. | 0:02:44 | 0:02:48 | |
-Tim's come down hard on us tonight. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:51 | |
-Come on, boys! Stop meandering -and just move with energy. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
-There are lots -of larger-than-life personalities. | 0:02:56 | 0:03:00 | |
-A lot of the boys -are close friends... | 0:03:00 | 0:03:03 | |
-..and enjoy every minute -of rehearsing and singing together. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:08 | |
-But tonight, I just wasn't -in the mood for banter. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:11 | |
-So I was shouting at the boys! | 0:03:12 | 0:03:15 | |
-# Guide me, O thou great Jehovah | 0:03:15 | 0:03:21 | |
-# Pilgrim through this barren land # | 0:03:24 | 0:03:30 | |
-The songs aren't all -the boys have to think about. | 0:03:31 | 0:03:35 | |
-They have complex choreography moves -to remember as well. | 0:03:35 | 0:03:39 | |
-I'm not quite sure how many routines -we have to do for the songs. | 0:03:41 | 0:03:46 | |
-But with this -ten-year anniversary concert... | 0:03:46 | 0:03:50 | |
-..we do major routines -for about twenty songs. | 0:03:50 | 0:03:56 | |
-There's some choreography -in most of the pieces we perform. | 0:03:57 | 0:04:01 | |
-# When I tread the verge of Jordan # | 0:04:03 | 0:04:09 | |
-Only Men Aloud have come a long way -since they formed ten years ago. | 0:04:09 | 0:04:15 | |
-# Ba ba-ra ba ba-ra | 0:04:15 | 0:04:17 | |
-# It's not unusual -to be loved by anyone | 0:04:18 | 0:04:21 | |
-# Ba-ra ba-ra ba-ra # | 0:04:21 | 0:04:23 | |
-In the early days, practising -was not a word used regularly... | 0:04:24 | 0:04:29 | |
-..by Only Men Aloud. | 0:04:30 | 0:04:31 | |
-We performed some of the pieces -for the first time on the stage! | 0:04:31 | 0:04:35 | |
-# No matter what you say # | 0:04:36 | 0:04:38 | |
-I don't think you can call -what we did back then choreography. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:45 | |
-We sometimes did a little kick -or put our hands up. | 0:04:45 | 0:04:49 | |
-# Sit down, sit down, sit down | 0:04:49 | 0:04:51 | |
-# Sit down, you'll rock the boat # | 0:04:51 | 0:04:53 | |
-But now, -things have changed completely. | 0:04:53 | 0:04:56 | |
-Tim works us very hard. | 0:04:56 | 0:04:58 | |
-We've reached the point now -where we could easily fall. | 0:04:58 | 0:05:03 | |
-We must continue with the hard work -to keep up the standard. | 0:05:03 | 0:05:07 | |
-I formed Only Men Aloud -in January 2000. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:11 | |
-I wanted to start up -a new and fresh-looking choir. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:15 | |
-I also wanted to pay tribute -to the tradition. | 0:05:16 | 0:05:19 | |
-Not too much. | 0:05:20 | 0:05:22 | |
-In the early days of Only Men Aloud, -there were two important events. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:31 | |
-The first was Cor Cymru. | 0:05:31 | 0:05:34 | |
-We decided to take part -in the 2003 Cor Cymru competition. | 0:05:36 | 0:05:41 | |
-We won the male choir category. | 0:05:41 | 0:05:45 | |
-I realized then that Only Men Aloud -are quite unique. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:50 | |
-They give us -a different dimension... | 0:05:53 | 0:05:56 | |
-..to what we perceive as male voice -singing, which is fantastic. | 0:05:56 | 0:06:00 | |
-It's a different way and -a new dimension to be treasured. | 0:06:01 | 0:06:05 | |
-The second important event -was Cothi and Cream with Shan Cothi. | 0:06:07 | 0:06:13 | |
-# Hello, Dolly! # | 0:06:13 | 0:06:15 | |
-With Cothi and Cream, -we thought for the first time... | 0:06:16 | 0:06:20 | |
-..about the whole show -and not just individual pieces. | 0:06:21 | 0:06:25 | |
-Well, Shan Cothi. Hello! | 0:06:25 | 0:06:27 | |
-I was very excited -about working with men! | 0:06:28 | 0:06:33 | |
-# I hear it tinkle | 0:06:35 | 0:06:37 | |
-# See the lights | 0:06:37 | 0:06:39 | |
-# See the lights - -# I see them twinkle | 0:06:39 | 0:06:41 | |
-We had ideas about harmonizing -and staging a show. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:47 | |
-We had big ideas. | 0:06:47 | 0:06:50 | |
-We saw lights, set, stage, rostra. | 0:06:50 | 0:06:55 | |
-Names in lights! | 0:06:55 | 0:06:58 | |
-Without Cothi and Cream, Only Men -Aloud would not be where we are now. | 0:06:58 | 0:07:04 | |
-# Jazz | 0:07:04 | 0:07:10 | |
-# That jazz # | 0:07:10 | 0:07:13 | |
-The day after the rehearsal... | 0:07:17 | 0:07:19 | |
-..Tim is back in his hometown -of New Tredegar. | 0:07:20 | 0:07:23 | |
-He's looking for a venue... | 0:07:23 | 0:07:25 | |
-..for Only Men Aloud's -tenth anniversary concert. | 0:07:25 | 0:07:28 | |
-It's also his weekly visit -to see his mother and grandmother. | 0:07:28 | 0:07:32 | |
-This is the view from the bedroom -where I grew up. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:37 | |
-My mother still lives here. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:40 | |
-I have many memories -of sitting here for hours on end... | 0:07:41 | 0:07:45 | |
-..looking at the view -and the chapel. | 0:07:45 | 0:07:48 | |
-I remember feeling a little bit -of an oddity now and again. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:52 | |
-I wanted to play the piano, -not rugby. | 0:07:52 | 0:07:56 | |
-The rugby club -was the focal point of the village. | 0:07:56 | 0:08:00 | |
-But I wanted to play the piano. | 0:08:01 | 0:08:04 | |
-From a little baby, he loved music. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:06 | |
-We sat him down in his little crib -and played music. | 0:08:07 | 0:08:12 | |
-He would just lie there and listen -to it. It was really strange. | 0:08:12 | 0:08:16 | |
-Yes, strange, that's the word! | 0:08:17 | 0:08:19 | |
-For a child that age, -it was unusual. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:23 | |
-Hello. | 0:08:23 | 0:08:25 | |
-Following a cuppa with his mother, -he visits his grandmother. | 0:08:26 | 0:08:30 | |
-Yes, this is it. | 0:08:32 | 0:08:33 | |
-Tim and Beth. | 0:08:34 | 0:08:35 | |
-Oh, no. I'm dreading this. | 0:08:35 | 0:08:39 | |
-# In sin and error pining # | 0:08:40 | 0:08:45 | |
-I think I inherited -my musical talent from my nana. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:51 | |
-It's my tie! | 0:08:52 | 0:08:53 | |
-It's my tie! - -I know it's your tie. | 0:08:53 | 0:08:54 | |
-So how old was I? About 12? | 0:08:58 | 0:09:00 | |
-Yes. | 0:09:00 | 0:09:02 | |
-# The weary world rejoices # | 0:09:02 | 0:09:05 | |
-I spent a lot of time here -over the years... | 0:09:05 | 0:09:09 | |
-..especially as a young boy -because Nana had a piano. | 0:09:10 | 0:09:14 | |
-I came here straight from school -every day to play the piano. | 0:09:14 | 0:09:20 | |
-I think that's quite enough of that! | 0:09:21 | 0:09:24 | |
-ORGAN MUSIC | 0:09:24 | 0:09:27 | |
-Carmel Chapel in the village -is very close to my heart. | 0:09:32 | 0:09:36 | |
-As a child, I played the organ -in the Sunday services. | 0:09:36 | 0:09:41 | |
-When I was 14, I started up a choir -of members from different churches. | 0:09:42 | 0:09:48 | |
-This is where Only Men Aloud's first -concert was held ten years ago. | 0:09:48 | 0:09:54 | |
-I remember there were around -150 people in the audience. | 0:09:54 | 0:09:59 | |
-We were a brand-new choir -with a very unusual name. | 0:10:00 | 0:10:05 | |
-I was pleased -to have one person in the audience! | 0:10:05 | 0:10:09 | |
-When I was considering a venue -for our tenth anniversary concert... | 0:10:10 | 0:10:15 | |
-..I thought about the CIA -and St David's Hall. | 0:10:15 | 0:10:20 | |
-But I thought -it would be far more appropriate... | 0:10:20 | 0:10:25 | |
-..to bring the choir back to -New Tredegar to perform once again. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:31 | |
-. | 0:10:32 | 0:10:32 | |
-888 | 0:10:36 | 0:10:38 | |
-There's only one week to go -until Only Men Aloud... | 0:10:38 | 0:10:41 | |
-..perform a special concert -to mark their tenth anniversary. | 0:10:41 | 0:10:45 | |
-They're busy preparing -at the choir's headquarters. | 0:10:45 | 0:10:49 | |
-Tim has received -an important e-mail. | 0:10:49 | 0:10:51 | |
-I've received this exciting e-mail. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:55 | |
-Four members of the choir -and I... | 0:10:55 | 0:11:00 | |
-..are going to New York in March -to launch our PBS programme. | 0:11:00 | 0:11:06 | |
-But I've just received an e-mail -saying that the Assembly... | 0:11:06 | 0:11:12 | |
-..wants the entire choir -to go to New York to perform. | 0:11:13 | 0:11:16 | |
-To perform in New Tredegar -and New York in the same month... | 0:11:17 | 0:11:21 | |
-..would be fantastic! | 0:11:21 | 0:11:23 | |
-It's an opportunity -for Only Men Aloud... | 0:11:24 | 0:11:27 | |
-..to start making their mark -in the USA. | 0:11:27 | 0:11:29 | |
-It comes just two years -after winning Last Choir Standing... | 0:11:29 | 0:11:33 | |
-..and signing a contract with -Universal worth over 1 million. | 0:11:33 | 0:11:37 | |
-Everything's totally different. | 0:11:37 | 0:11:40 | |
-Before the competition, we performed -in church halls and school halls. | 0:11:40 | 0:11:46 | |
-Now, we're performing in arenas. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:49 | |
-I'm running Only Men Aloud -as a business now, not a hobby. | 0:11:49 | 0:11:53 | |
-But a contract worth over 1 million -isn't much between 20 members. | 0:11:53 | 0:11:58 | |
-How are you, kids? | 0:11:58 | 0:11:59 | |
-Who's winning? | 0:11:59 | 0:12:01 | |
-It's 9.00pm and bass singer -Tim Edwards is busy at work... | 0:12:01 | 0:12:05 | |
-..at the Urdd Centre in Cardiff Bay. | 0:12:05 | 0:12:07 | |
-Which colour am I? | 0:12:07 | 0:12:08 | |
-Which colour am I? - -Red. | 0:12:08 | 0:12:10 | |
-A lot of people don't realize... | 0:12:10 | 0:12:13 | |
-..that the majority of us in Only -Men Aloud have to work as well. | 0:12:13 | 0:12:17 | |
-Some mow lawns. | 0:12:17 | 0:12:19 | |
-Some teach the trumpet. | 0:12:21 | 0:12:23 | |
-I work with Urdd Gobaith Cymru -here at the centre. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:30 | |
-Pete also works here -as a night warden. | 0:12:31 | 0:12:34 | |
-The most important thing is I can -slide this across to keep you out! | 0:12:34 | 0:12:39 | |
-This is my first payslip. | 0:12:39 | 0:12:41 | |
-Better than nothing! | 0:12:42 | 0:12:42 | |
-Better than nothing! - -Better than nothing! | 0:12:42 | 0:12:44 | |
-It's been Tim's ambition -for a long time... | 0:12:47 | 0:12:51 | |
-..for us to become Wales' first -full-time professional choir. | 0:12:51 | 0:12:56 | |
-He's hoping Only Men Aloud -can fill that hole. | 0:12:56 | 0:13:00 | |
-I'm sure we'd all be over the moon -if he succeeds. | 0:13:00 | 0:13:03 | |
-But it would be hard -to employ twenty men full-time. | 0:13:04 | 0:13:08 | |
-There are four days to go... | 0:13:09 | 0:13:11 | |
-..until Only Men Aloud's important -tenth anniversary concert. | 0:13:12 | 0:13:16 | |
-Tim, Craig and Wyn are on their way -to New Tredegar to prepare. | 0:13:16 | 0:13:20 | |
-But before that, -they stop for a bite to eat. | 0:13:20 | 0:13:23 | |
-Two bacon and eggs and one bacon -and mushroom, please? | 0:13:24 | 0:13:28 | |
-We had some fantastic news -last night. | 0:13:28 | 0:13:31 | |
-Only Men Aloud's album, Band of -Brothers, has been nominated... | 0:13:31 | 0:13:35 | |
-..in the Album of the Year category -for the Classical Brit Awards. | 0:13:35 | 0:13:40 | |
-I'm overjoyed! | 0:13:40 | 0:13:42 | |
-But there's fierce competition -in the category... | 0:13:42 | 0:13:46 | |
-..including an album by the Pope. | 0:13:46 | 0:13:48 | |
-To think we're sharing -a Brit nomination with the Pope! | 0:13:49 | 0:13:53 | |
-I'm sure he's standing on top -of a mountain near the Vatican... | 0:13:53 | 0:13:57 | |
-..eating a bacon and mushroom bap -as well! | 0:13:57 | 0:14:00 | |
-There he is! Good morning! | 0:14:00 | 0:14:02 | |
-After arriving at Carmel Chapel, -the smiles soon disappear. | 0:14:05 | 0:14:10 | |
-The stage isn't as big -as I thought it would be. | 0:14:10 | 0:14:16 | |
-I thought it was 8m x 6m -but it's actually 6m x 4m. | 0:14:16 | 0:14:22 | |
-We have a piano... | 0:14:22 | 0:14:25 | |
-Yes, the cameraman -wrote down the wrong measurements! | 0:14:25 | 0:14:29 | |
-We might have to use my Casio. | 0:14:32 | 0:14:37 | |
-It has a stand so it'll be fine! | 0:14:37 | 0:14:39 | |
-Tim leaves Wyn and Craig -to solve the problem. | 0:14:40 | 0:14:43 | |
-He goes to hand out tickets -to the local people. | 0:14:44 | 0:14:48 | |
-Are you coming to the concert? | 0:14:51 | 0:14:51 | |
-Are you coming to the concert? - -Yes. | 0:14:51 | 0:14:53 | |
-How many tickets do you need? | 0:14:53 | 0:14:55 | |
-How many tickets do you need? - -Joe needs ten. | 0:14:55 | 0:14:57 | |
-Gwen needs two and Rose needs eight. | 0:14:57 | 0:15:01 | |
-How many do you need, Rose? | 0:15:02 | 0:15:03 | |
-How many do you need, Rose? - -Eight. | 0:15:03 | 0:15:04 | |
-Are you both coming? | 0:15:05 | 0:15:05 | |
-Are you both coming? - -Yes, we have to. | 0:15:05 | 0:15:07 | |
-I'm the tea lady -who'll be making you cups of tea! | 0:15:07 | 0:15:10 | |
-You must be there! | 0:15:10 | 0:15:11 | |
-I didn't know -what time we'd be meeting. | 0:15:12 | 0:15:15 | |
-I've been waiting since 1.30pm! | 0:15:15 | 0:15:17 | |
-I'm sorry. I was always late! | 0:15:18 | 0:15:19 | |
-I'm sorry. I was always late! - -Come on in. | 0:15:19 | 0:15:21 | |
-There's an incredible atmosphere -in the village. | 0:15:22 | 0:15:25 | |
-It's a pleasure -to watch you on television. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:30 | |
-Thank you very much. | 0:15:30 | 0:15:33 | |
-I don't remember it ever being -like this in New Tredegar. | 0:15:33 | 0:15:36 | |
-It's great to be home. | 0:15:37 | 0:15:39 | |
-But before the special concert -in New Tredegar... | 0:15:42 | 0:15:46 | |
-..Only Men Aloud -have an important meeting in London. | 0:15:46 | 0:15:49 | |
-They've been invited to perform -on a charity single... | 0:15:50 | 0:15:54 | |
-..in aid of the Haiti appeal. | 0:15:54 | 0:15:56 | |
-As long as you'll be ready -to sing top Bs straight away! | 0:15:57 | 0:16:00 | |
-Tim has good reason to worry. | 0:16:03 | 0:16:04 | |
-The men only have an hour to learn -the piece before the recording. | 0:16:05 | 0:16:09 | |
-They call in to their managers' -offices in London to rehearse. | 0:16:09 | 0:16:13 | |
-Does everyone know -which notes they are singing... | 0:16:13 | 0:16:17 | |
-..in the last part of five? | 0:16:17 | 0:16:20 | |
-We saw the music for the first time -about half an hour ago... | 0:16:27 | 0:16:31 | |
-..when we arrived here. | 0:16:32 | 0:16:34 | |
-We haven't had much time to rehearse -but I think it's coming together. | 0:16:35 | 0:16:40 | |
-I hope it goes well. It'll be -alright on the night as they say! | 0:16:40 | 0:16:44 | |
-We often see a piece of music -for the first time on the day. | 0:16:45 | 0:16:48 | |
-I think everyone can read the music -and perform it well too. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:52 | |
-We want to record it perfectly -and quickly as well. | 0:16:52 | 0:16:57 | |
-We're now ready -to go to AIR Studios... | 0:16:57 | 0:17:00 | |
-..and hopefully -we'll record it in one go! | 0:17:00 | 0:17:03 | |
-Ten minutes later, the men arrive -at the famous AIR Studios. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:11 | |
-They're back where they recorded -their first album in 2008. | 0:17:11 | 0:17:16 | |
-These guys are good, -documentary team. | 0:17:24 | 0:17:27 | |
-Only Men Aloud -are different from other choirs... | 0:17:28 | 0:17:31 | |
-..because of the sound they make. | 0:17:31 | 0:17:34 | |
-I'm lucky to be standing next to men -who've had professional training. | 0:17:35 | 0:17:40 | |
-That's what makes the sound and the -power the men create when they sing. | 0:17:41 | 0:17:48 | |
-Only Men Aloud are quite unique. | 0:17:54 | 0:17:59 | |
-The choir has that extra spark. | 0:18:00 | 0:18:02 | |
-Tim brings that spark. | 0:18:04 | 0:18:06 | |
-He wants Only Men Aloud to be the -best choir they can possibly be... | 0:18:06 | 0:18:11 | |
-..and to push the boundaries. | 0:18:11 | 0:18:13 | |
-I think we're doing that. | 0:18:13 | 0:18:16 | |
-28 February 2010. | 0:18:32 | 0:18:35 | |
-There's excitement in the air -in New Tredegar. | 0:18:36 | 0:18:39 | |
-It's ten years exactly -since Only Men Aloud... | 0:18:39 | 0:18:43 | |
-..performed their first concert -in Carmel Chapel. | 0:18:43 | 0:18:46 | |
-They've returned once again to -perform and to mark the occasion. | 0:18:46 | 0:18:51 | |
-I feel like a young boy -on Christmas Day. I'm so excited. | 0:18:51 | 0:18:55 | |
-It's now a reality. | 0:18:55 | 0:18:57 | |
-This place will be full of people -who've come to see us. | 0:18:57 | 0:19:01 | |
-We'll be completely unplugged -so it's quite nerve-wracking. | 0:19:02 | 0:19:06 | |
-I can't wait! | 0:19:06 | 0:19:08 | |
-I was in the choir ten years ago -and this is where it all started. | 0:19:08 | 0:19:12 | |
-It's so exciting to come back here. | 0:19:12 | 0:19:15 | |
-The chapel looks fantastic and -it's going to be full to the brim. | 0:19:15 | 0:19:19 | |
-I really can't wait. | 0:19:19 | 0:19:21 | |
-I really can't wait. - -5, 6, 7, 8. | 0:19:21 | 0:19:22 | |
-# Your turn at bat, sir | 0:19:23 | 0:19:26 | |
-# At least I didn't fake it | 0:19:26 | 0:19:28 | |
-# Hat, sir, -I guess I didn't make it # | 0:19:28 | 0:19:31 | |
-While the boys rehearse, a special -friend walks in to offer some help. | 0:19:32 | 0:19:37 | |
-Tim asked me to do this... | 0:19:43 | 0:19:45 | |
-..and I said if I could get -a flight back, I'd do it no problem. | 0:19:46 | 0:19:52 | |
-Bonnie Tyler in New Tredegar! | 0:19:52 | 0:19:54 | |
-It's great they've come back -to where they actually started. | 0:19:55 | 0:19:59 | |
-# And I need you now tonight | 0:20:00 | 0:20:02 | |
-# And I need you more than ever # | 0:20:03 | 0:20:06 | |
-It's great to see Bonnie. -She's an absolute legend. | 0:20:06 | 0:20:11 | |
-Things are starting to come together -but time is scarce! | 0:20:12 | 0:20:18 | |
-It's quite a difficult stage -to perform on. | 0:20:20 | 0:20:23 | |
-We've had to change a few things -but everything should come together. | 0:20:23 | 0:20:28 | |
-As night falls in New Tredegar, -avid fans start to arrive. | 0:20:32 | 0:20:36 | |
-The men in the chapel are preparing -for the big night ahead. | 0:20:37 | 0:20:40 | |
-Everyone's now getting changed. | 0:20:44 | 0:20:46 | |
-We'll probably -come together again... | 0:20:46 | 0:20:49 | |
-..about ten minutes before going on -stage to run through the order. | 0:20:50 | 0:20:53 | |
-The stirrups are on. The boys are -putting on a little antiperspirant. | 0:20:54 | 0:20:59 | |
-It's almost showtime! | 0:20:59 | 0:21:01 | |
-A decade since Only Men Aloud -were formed... | 0:21:07 | 0:21:11 | |
-..and tonight's a big night -for Tim and his family. | 0:21:12 | 0:21:16 | |
-The chapel is full! -I've never seen that before. | 0:21:16 | 0:21:20 | |

-But I wish his dad was here. | 0:21:31 | 0:21:33 | |
-Two minutes until curtains up, boys. -Have a wonderful time. | 0:21:38 | 0:21:42 | |
-# Beside the sea blue pebbles lying | 0:21:56 | 0:22:02 | |
-# Beside the sea -gold flowers glowing | 0:22:03 | 0:22:09 | |
-# Beside the sea -are all things fairest | 0:22:10 | 0:22:16 | |
-# Beside the sea -I found my dearest # | 0:22:16 | 0:22:23 | |
-I saw the chapel full -for the first time ever. | 0:22:24 | 0:22:27 | |
-I cried a little. | 0:22:28 | 0:22:31 | |
-The atmosphere was fantastic. | 0:22:35 | 0:22:37 | |
-It feels as though there are 5,000 -people out there, not 500. | 0:22:38 | 0:22:41 | |
-It's like the CIA. -Everyone's so close to you. | 0:22:42 | 0:22:45 | |
-# And the devil will drag you under | 0:22:46 | 0:22:49 | |
-# By the fancy tie -'round your wicked throat | 0:22:49 | 0:22:52 | |
-# Sit down, sit down, sit down | 0:22:52 | 0:22:54 | |
-# Sit down, sit down, -you're rockin' the boat # | 0:22:54 | 0:22:59 | |

-# Coming now to Thee! | 0:23:03 | 0:23:06 | |
-# Wash me, cleanse me in the blood | 0:23:07 | 0:23:10 | |
-# That flowed on Calvary! | 0:23:11 | 0:23:15 | |

-# Amen | 0:23:19 | 0:23:23 | |
-# Amen # | 0:23:24 | 0:23:35 | |
-The crowd's going to go crazy... | 0:23:44 | 0:23:48 | |
-..when Bonnie Tyler walks out. | 0:23:49 | 0:23:52 | |
-Ladies and gentleman, -Bonnie Tyler is here! | 0:23:53 | 0:23:56 | |
-# Every now and then | 0:23:56 | 0:23:58 | |

-I'll never forget Carmel Chapel -full of people... | 0:24:24 | 0:24:27 | |
-..singing Happy Birthday to Only -Men Aloud and singing the anthem. | 0:24:27 | 0:24:35 | |

-I'm a very happy man... | 0:25:40 | 0:25:42 | |
-..and I think I deserve -a few pints in the rugby club. | 0:25:43 | 0:25:47 | |
-New York - the vibrant city -with over 8 million inhabitants. | 0:26:04 | 0:26:08 | |

-..architect and Welshman John Bell. | 0:27:16 | 0:27:19 | |

-# I hear Thy welcome voice | 0:27:39 | 0:27:41 | |
-# That calls me, Lord, to Thee | 0:27:41 | 0:27:47 | |
-# For cleansing -in Thy precious blood | 0:27:47 | 0:27:51 | |
-# That flowed on Calvary | 0:27:51 | 0:27:57 | |
-# I am coming, Lord! | 0:27:57 | 0:28:01 | |
-# Coming now to Thee! | 0:28:02 | 0:28:06 | |
-# Wash me, cleanse me in the blood | 0:28:06 | 0:28:10 | |
-# That flowed on Calvary! # | 0:28:10 | 0:28:15 | |

-We heard very joyful, -wonderful music. | 0:29:01 | 0:29:05 | |
-It's a great start. | 0:29:05 | 0:29:07 | |
-But not everybody is listening! | 0:29:08 | 0:29:11 | |

-Tim is singing. It'll be interesting -because he hasn't sung for a while. | 0:30:14 | 0:30:19 | |
-He's far more used to waving his -hands and telling us what to do. | 0:30:19 | 0:30:23 | |
-He'll be at the coalface now! | 0:30:23 | 0:30:25 | |

-It's what we have to do. -We want to be recognized in the USA. | 0:31:14 | 0:31:18 | |
-If we want to crack the USA, -this is what we have to do. | 0:31:18 | 0:31:23 | |
-That was wonderful. | 0:31:26 | 0:31:28 | |
-Thank you very much for coming -here tonight. I want that album! | 0:31:28 | 0:31:32 | |

-It's 2.00am. | 0:31:35 | 0:31:37 | |
-It's been a long but successful -day for Only Men Aloud... | 0:31:37 | 0:31:41 | |
-..as they start to make -an impression in the USA. | 0:31:41 | 0:31:44 | |
-That's a disgusting colour green! | 0:31:44 | 0:31:45 | |
-That's a disgusting colour green! - -It's the one you wanted. | 0:31:45 | 0:31:47 | |

-..bass singer Tim Edwards -and his wife Nia... | 0:31:52 | 0:31:55 | |

-They've asked Nia's sister and her -partner to give them a helping hand. | 0:32:12 | 0:32:16 | |
-I'm here to make sure they don't -paint over the other wall... | 0:32:16 | 0:32:20 | |
-..and there are no streaks! | 0:32:20 | 0:32:22 | |
-Someone has to watch over them! | 0:32:23 | 0:32:25 | |
-Someone has to watch over them! - -The colour's quite nice. | 0:32:25 | 0:32:27 | |
-We'll see how overpowering it is -when we've finished the whole wall. | 0:32:28 | 0:32:32 | |
-We've been married for eleven years -and it's only ever been us two. | 0:32:33 | 0:32:38 | |
-It'll be a big change. | 0:32:39 | 0:32:41 | |
-Because things -are going to change a lot... | 0:32:42 | 0:32:45 | |
-..I'll have to reconsider my future -with Only Men Aloud. | 0:32:45 | 0:32:50 | |
-I have talked to Tim -and he's aware of my situation. | 0:32:51 | 0:32:55 | |
-I will miss the choir but a lot -of other things will take over. | 0:32:56 | 0:32:59 | |
-I think I'll have plenty to do! | 0:32:59 | 0:33:02 | |
-I'll return to the choir -when the time's right. | 0:33:02 | 0:33:06 | |
-The lagers are in the fridge -and the rugby's on soon... | 0:33:06 | 0:33:10 | |
-..so I think I'll leave these -to get on with it! | 0:33:10 | 0:33:13 | |
-# Lord prepare me | 0:33:19 | 0:33:24 | |

-# Every thanksgiving # | 0:33:40 | 0:33:44 | |

-# I am coming, Lord! | 0:35:14 | 0:35:19 | |
-# Coming now to Thee! | 0:35:19 | 0:35:23 | |
-# Wash me, cleanse me in the blood | 0:35:23 | 0:35:27 | |
-# That flowed on Calvary! # | 0:35:27 | 0:35:30 | |
-We've sung as a choir -across the UK. | 0:35:30 | 0:35:34 | |
-We've performed in St Paul's -Cathedral in London... | 0:35:35 | 0:35:38 | |
-..and the Millennium Centre -in Cardiff. | 0:35:38 | 0:35:40 | |
-But I've never felt such emotion -and atmosphere as I have today. | 0:35:40 | 0:35:45 | |
-# Amen # | 0:35:46 | 0:35:49 | |
-The men have brought -a taste of Wales... | 0:35:50 | 0:35:53 | |
-..and the unique sound -of the choir to Harlem. | 0:35:53 | 0:35:56 | |
-It's now time for them to get into -the spirit of gospel singing. | 0:35:57 | 0:36:01 | |
-# I'm gonna let it shine | 0:36:02 | 0:36:05 | |
-# Everywhere I go | 0:36:06 | 0:36:10 | |
-# I'm gonna let it shine # | 0:36:10 | 0:36:14 | |
-All I have to say is wow! | 0:36:15 | 0:36:17 | |
-It was an unforgettable, emotional -and fantastic experience. | 0:36:18 | 0:36:21 | |
-I've been going to chapel -with my family since a young age. | 0:36:22 | 0:36:25 | |
-It was incredible to see -the way they praise God. Amazing. | 0:36:25 | 0:36:31 | |
-The tempo increases and before -he realizes what's happening... | 0:36:35 | 0:36:40 | |
-..Peter is invited -to take the microphone. | 0:36:40 | 0:36:42 | |
-# Every step I take I keep | 0:36:43 | 0:36:45 | |

-# Every step I take I just keep # | 0:36:49 | 0:36:50 | |
-I really didn't expect -to be passed the microphone. | 0:36:51 | 0:36:55 | |
-But it was a privilege. | 0:36:56 | 0:36:58 | |
-It was an unforgettable experience. | 0:36:59 | 0:37:02 | |
-# Keep on, arghhh! # | 0:37:03 | 0:37:08 | |
-I can barely speak. | 0:37:08 | 0:37:10 | |
-I have a lump in my throat. -It was very emotional. | 0:37:10 | 0:37:14 | |
-There are no words to describe -what just happened. | 0:37:14 | 0:37:18 | |
-God bless. | 0:37:24 | 0:37:26 | |

-This way. | 0:38:00 | 0:38:02 | |
-Since their national success, Tim -and the choir's management team... | 0:38:05 | 0:38:09 | |
-..have been looking for -a recording contract in the USA. | 0:38:10 | 0:38:14 | |

-Tim arrives at their offices -to discuss the choir's future... | 0:38:17 | 0:38:21 | |
-..with the label's vice president, -Joshua Sherman. | 0:38:21 | 0:38:24 | |
-He has important news. | 0:38:25 | 0:38:26 | |
-We're going to launch the choir -with a TV special here this year... | 0:38:26 | 0:38:30 | |
-..and then bring them -out with a tour. | 0:38:30 | 0:38:32 | |
-We're then going to extend that -around the world. | 0:38:32 | 0:38:35 | |
-We have a number of countries that -we're looking to expose them in... | 0:38:35 | 0:38:39 | |
-..including Japan, Australia -as well as North America. | 0:38:40 | 0:38:43 | |
-We'll be working hard with them... | 0:38:43 | 0:38:45 | |
-..and showing everyone -why they're so special. | 0:38:46 | 0:38:49 | |
-A few days ago, we were in -Carmel Chapel in New Tredegar. | 0:38:49 | 0:38:53 | |
-We're now in New York... | 0:38:53 | 0:38:55 | |
-..and have signed a contract -with a recording company over here. | 0:38:55 | 0:39:00 | |
-This is the world's best present -for Only Men Aloud. | 0:39:01 | 0:39:05 | |
-# But whether I'm the rose -of sheer perfection # | 0:39:05 | 0:39:08 | |
-But there's no time to sit back -and celebrate the new contract. | 0:39:08 | 0:39:12 | |
-Only Men Aloud will be performing -three concerts in New York... | 0:39:13 | 0:39:16 | |
-..as part of the Wales Week -celebrations in the USA. | 0:39:16 | 0:39:20 | |
-But the busy schedule is starting -to catch up with the boys. | 0:39:21 | 0:39:25 | |
-Only Men Aloud -now have to perform as guests... | 0:39:25 | 0:39:28 | |
-..in front of a special audience -at the Yale Club. | 0:39:28 | 0:39:32 | |
-As always, Tim is expecting -their best performance possible. | 0:39:33 | 0:39:37 | |
-Keep walking! | 0:39:39 | 0:39:41 | |
-OK, you don't need to go -quite so far there. | 0:39:41 | 0:39:44 | |
-The room's quite small -and there are a lot of radio mics. | 0:39:46 | 0:39:52 | |
-We didn't use mics at all -in the concert in New Tredegar. | 0:39:53 | 0:39:57 | |
-But with these mics, -the sound is very different. | 0:39:58 | 0:40:01 | |
-It takes time to organize and some -men are starting to get tired. | 0:40:01 | 0:40:05 | |
-But it's important... | 0:40:06 | 0:40:07 | |
-..and I think we've managed to get -the best possible sound for tonight. | 0:40:07 | 0:40:12 | |
-Tim gathers everyone together... | 0:40:13 | 0:40:15 | |
-..to talk about his meeting -with the new label. | 0:40:16 | 0:40:18 | |
-He shares the news that their -schedule could get busier. | 0:40:19 | 0:40:22 | |
-It's looking positive and I -anticipate a very full schedule. | 0:40:23 | 0:40:29 | |
-This isn't only about the USA. This -is about everywhere that's non-UK. | 0:40:29 | 0:40:33 | |
-The touring period will be from the -end of September until mid October. | 0:40:34 | 0:40:38 | |
-Any opportunity we've got -in the USA now, we have to seize. | 0:40:38 | 0:40:42 | |
-# I saw the light on the night -that I passed by her window | 0:40:42 | 0:40:46 | |
-# Ah # | 0:40:47 | 0:40:50 | |
-With Tim's words -echoing in their heads... | 0:40:50 | 0:40:53 | |
-..the choir performs -to the audience. | 0:40:53 | 0:40:56 | |
-The problems with the mics -have been solved... | 0:40:58 | 0:41:00 | |
-..and it's another successful -concert for Only Men Aloud. | 0:41:00 | 0:41:04 | |
-# More # | 0:41:05 | 0:41:08 | |
-As a new day dawns, the men have -been thinking about Tim's news... | 0:41:20 | 0:41:25 | |
-..following his meeting -with the new label... | 0:41:25 | 0:41:28 | |
-..and the heavy schedule -which may follow. | 0:41:29 | 0:41:31 | |
-I'm hoping we're going to discuss -the USA tour. | 0:41:32 | 0:41:34 | |
-We may have to think -about our options. | 0:41:34 | 0:41:37 | |
-If we're out here for months, it may -be difficult for those with jobs. | 0:41:37 | 0:41:42 | |
-We could be out here for a month -or even three months. | 0:41:43 | 0:41:46 | |
-We have a lot to discuss and there -might be some changes in the choir. | 0:41:46 | 0:41:50 | |
-Without mentioning -keeping the girlfriend happy! | 0:41:50 | 0:41:53 | |
-We've signed the contract -in the USA. | 0:41:54 | 0:41:58 | |
-We've reached a crossroads. | 0:41:58 | 0:42:00 | |
-It's tough because they've mentioned -a tour here, Australia... | 0:42:01 | 0:42:06 | |
-..South Africa and Japan. | 0:42:06 | 0:42:08 | |
-It's difficult. The boys will have -to think about their future. | 0:42:08 | 0:42:14 | |
-It's impossible to make the most -of every opportunity... | 0:42:14 | 0:42:17 | |
-..and hold down -a full-time job in Wales. | 0:42:18 | 0:42:20 | |
-But they must forget -about their worries for now... | 0:42:24 | 0:42:27 | |
-..and enjoy the delights -of the Big Apple. | 0:42:28 | 0:42:31 | |
-We've just seen ourselves on -a huge billboard in Times Square... | 0:42:34 | 0:42:38 | |
-..telling everyone -to vote for Only Men Aloud. | 0:42:38 | 0:42:41 | |
-Perhaps a few Americans will vote -for us for the Classical Brit. | 0:42:42 | 0:42:47 | |
-After entertaining the tourists -on Liberty Island... | 0:43:11 | 0:43:14 | |
-..they arrive on Ellis Island. | 0:43:15 | 0:43:18 | |
-Between 1892 and 1954... | 0:43:18 | 0:43:20 | |
-..this was the gateway for 12 -million immigrants to the USA... | 0:43:20 | 0:43:24 | |
-..all in search of a new life. | 0:43:25 | 0:43:27 | |
-Thousands of people from Wales -walked through this hall. | 0:43:27 | 0:43:32 | |
-It's hard to think about it. | 0:43:32 | 0:43:35 | |
-We're stood here looking out -at the Statue of Liberty... | 0:43:36 | 0:43:39 | |
-..and this is what they did -200 years ago. | 0:43:39 | 0:43:42 | |
-It's a special place -for many people. | 0:43:42 | 0:43:45 | |

-..Craig learns that his -great-grandmother, Jennie Roberts... | 0:44:23 | 0:44:27 | |
-..came over to the USA in 1913. | 0:44:27 | 0:44:31 | |
-I can show that to my grandad. | 0:44:32 | 0:44:34 | |
-He'll know when his mum -arrived here now. I'm very excited. | 0:44:34 | 0:44:39 | |
