Da iawn John ac Alun - mi oedd fy nhad yn chwarelwr o Blaenau - da iawn. I recall this song very well, sung beautifully by the late Rita McNeil. Great respect for all miners, regardless of which country.

this is a Welsh version of "Working Man" .. one of the many beautiful songs by the late Rita MacNeil of Cape Breton Island on Canada's East coast. Check out the version by the Men of the Deeps. Cape Breton ha a long history of mining, and many Welsh and Cornish came to work the mines in the 19th and early 20th centuries.

different words though. it would have been proper to give Rita some credit.. it's essentially her song.

the original tune is Working Man, covered my many artists , advantage of Welsh, you can take famous tunes and put welsh words to them

@entername9540 3 жыл бұрын

I think it might have been written in English because Welsh as a language has always been repressed. My grandmother sang welsh songs to me as a child, hearing them later in English just didn't seem right or something was missing. I'm NOT a musician or musically educated so strictly my own individual opinion. A great many songs seem to resonate better in Welsh than their so called English origin, I wonder if repression was the reason...my opinion only so don't go all keyboard warrior ok!

@intentions666....please note: I said "Not bad" regarding the performance. Also, my main comment was that, as far as I could tell, the name of the original singer/author was not mentioned and THAT was what I think was unfortunate. If I might add, using an alias, as you do, indicates you could have something to hide. Who would know if you aren't a member of the band or the devil him/herself!

@intentions666 8 жыл бұрын

+Laurence Bushor Laurence. Take your point with hiding behind an alias. Yet your father/brother/cousin/grandpa made the comment so why are YOU responding? Get the feeling the family Bushor are ganing up on me! Anyway. Love both the original and this one, I happen to think John ac Alun do a pretty tight song here. Just saying..

@fredericklawrencebushor7974 9 жыл бұрын

Not too bad. But, it's unfortunate they didn't pay tribute to the original song and its author Rita McNeil of Cape Breton.

@intentions666 8 жыл бұрын

+Fred Bushor Maybe so, but I actually prefer this version as it doesn't linger so much. Without trying to do down the great Rita Macneil I think the words in Welsh are a bit more powerful. Excellent cover version.
