In 2007 the song was one of the traditional Welsh songs to make it to the screen in an S4C television series , an attempt to bring traditional four-part harmony choral singing back to the Welsh rugby terraces. In 2012, the Welsh group Only Boys Aloud sang "" on the British ITV show ''Britain's Got Talent'', coming third in the final. It has since become the most watched Welsh-language video on YouTube.
