Have I digressed too much Roger, but then, why should we not promote the UK as Hayley so magnificently promotes NZ? Peter Hi Peter, The answer to your question is because we are an international forum. Of course promoting the UK is acceptable if it is particularly relevant to the subject under discussion (as would be the promotion of any other country) but still it should be kept to a minimum. If more needs to be said, there is always the Off Topic board where, as Keith used to say, "off topic is on topic"! This response only falls within the subject of "a cap(p)ella" because it is being made with no musical accompaniment whatsoever! Roger Your patience and toleration is noted. Thank you. I promise, I will not push my luck--or your patience-- again.. for awhile at least! In fact, I'll go visit now, to see if I have any comments to make there--and not to mischievously see if I can go 'off topic' when 'off topic', but wouldn't that then be 'on topic'? I like your Keith quote. I'll try and 'hear' his voice in my ear telling me that. Peter

I can still not get over the thrill of hearing Hayley singing a "cap(p)ella" at the beginning of Prayer in a live concert.
Sorry if this OT, but as I came across this thread, I thought I'd add my little comment

Hi Dean,
Yes that is very special. I love to hear Hayley sing a cappella. She sometimes does the same thing with Pokarekare Ana. And that is equally mindblowing. On Treasure she does the same with Abide with Me, and I love that too. I always feel a bit disappointed when the backing musicians come in for the second verse though. I have somewhere a recording of Hayley singing Pokarekare Ana completely unaccompanied, I think it was from the Woburn Abbey/West Side Story show.
