Stalky? Do you think that's we he might have run off when I started to chat to him in the gents toilet at Tesco that time. Or when I offered to buy him a drink in that pub. Or like when I asked to for his autograph when he was trying on some new pants in Marks & Sparks or............dani wrote:haha or just write to St Phillips makes it look a bit less stalky :p just putting that out there lol!!!

HMMMMM!! I have a friend who is a captain in the Pennsylvania State Police and he commands the Special Crimes Division. I wonder if I should have him run your name in the computer once?!

I've been listening to it a few times today. The first time I heard it, I preferred the live recording because of the applause and because I was there.haha.
But listening to the track again and again, it evokes a different feeling than the live one. That one was more emotional, evokes a lot more patriotic feelings. This one has a more soothing effect, especially if you concentrate on the harmonies. Just pure, sweet, lovely voices singing an anthem close to my Filipino heart. Either way, as Tom would say, it's 'Magic'.
I just noticed one mistake there. In his solo, I think mini-Ben started pronouncing "nahalina" as "nay-halina". It should be a short a. Nonetheless, it's still the best performance that I've ever heard of of this song.

He goes to a great school and learns latin so im guessing stuff like languages are easy for him to pick up. In state schools you dont do Latin and you learn mainly French or Spanish but with his school im guessing he gets a lot more options opened to him and picking up langueages would be easier for him than some of the other boys.JoelinMkt wrote:I am starting to get the impression that Ben must be a really smart lad.

in foreign languages and in Latin.
He did mention on the SOP special that he did take high level Latin in school.dani wrote:He goes to a great school and learns latin so im guessing stuff like languages are easy for him to pick up.

I doubt though that Ben takes Tagalog - which for makes the whole solo thing amazing since Tagalog relates neither to English nor to Latin in terms of rules of grammar, syntax or pronunciation.
Robert could have arranged the song to be sung by the enseble. He's got to have some probable cause to have decided, "Let the lad sing solo, he can pull it off."
Can't blame Ben for mispronouncing some words though because I've been speaking Tagalog for eighty percent of my life and I still mispronounce words and misconstruct sentences.
