i love the smooth harmonys the boys have in this song.

:D Thanks for posting, interesting I've never heard of butter mince pie, but if they had it here in the US, hearing Llbera in the commercial would make me want to try some. :lol:

That was such a mixed commercial.

1) I realized how really important Christmas is and how we should always cherish it every year.
2) I wanted to listen to the St. Philips Boys Choir again for their christmas carols :D
3) I got hungry.... A yorkshire pudding will do :lol:

Nice little clip - so that's the new recording of 'How Can I Keep From Singing' from Eternal CD? - Didn't detect any solo on it's own, but not sure if the clip started with the first verse or maybe a pickup on the 2nd verse. There were quite a few voices at the start, possibly Josh singing with maybe Sam, Mini-Ben, Ed. Could have been Liam or Tom, or maybe even a new boy doing the high notes at the end. Wonder if they will do a promo video of this song to complement the Eternal Double-CD?

They did but not during the Libera years.
They did it when they were still St. Philipps Boys Choir.

They did it in their Album "Angel Voices, Volume 1" (This is not the Angel Voices that you may be thinking about :))

They sang this song, For The Beauty Of The Earth, San Damiano, Pie Jesu, and Adoramus Te for a program called Tischmark On Song in the early 1990s. You can find videos of all of those songs on YouTube and Libera Fans.org.

Her voice is nice, but it's not a patch on last last year's version. ;)

Waitrose's TV ad is a redeveloped version of last year's campaign, which focused on being at home, which the supermarket said delivered its best-ever Christmas sales performance.
I wonder why... 8)

The new one is very nice, but it seems to me, a little hurried in some parts. I prefer last year's version because it's more relaxed and easier to the ears, among other things... :lol:

Yeah, I was secretly hoping for a follow-up waitrose/Libera partnership again this Christmas. Maybe with a new song and video, considering it was a successful campaign last year.
