Well, I don't know what this is worth but I live within a 100 miles of Llanfair and this pronunciation is about as right as it gets. Saying the full place name is something of a challenge and I was taught it by a teacher of mine who was very Welsh. I got bonus points as a kid cos I could remember the English translation as well. I'm going to bet that the only reason they bothered to put this village on a national weather map was because they knew the weatherman is one of those that have taken the few hours of time it takes to commit it to memory and wanted a Youtube moment.

Once there, it is so weird it rarely leaves.

It sounds like he learned this the way I did: break it into sections. For help I memorised English ish words to guide me through the journey:
Llanfair (lllllLand fire!)
pwllgwyngyll (pullll Gwen Gilllll)
gogerychwyrn (Gagarin twin)
drobwll (doubllllll)
llantysilio (llland silly Oh or silo if you prefer)
gogogoch (Go! Go! Goch!)

Loved the Gwen.

A partial list:

Adele
Cher
Edith Piaf
Bette Midler
Julie Andrews
Bernadette Peters
Gwen Stefani
Zooey Deschanel
Britney Spears
Shakira
Alanis Morisette
Joni Mitchell (?)
Christina Aguilera
Celine Dion
Selena (?)
Barbra Streisand

I couldn't hear/tell who she was doing much of the time, but I did love Zooey Deschanel, Gwen Stefani, Christinga Aguilera, and Celine Dion.

Streisand sounded like Rosie Perez to me.

She absolutely went from amazing to suck when she left No Doubt.

Course I was a fan of No Doubt's original singer also with Gwen on backups, I have their bootleg album which is amazing.

And No Doubt fronted by Gwen was absolutely amazing, but her solo career is unlistenable... to me of course.

I am sorry That was the best quality version I could find Thanks for your vote

@chilaxe I think there's good reason not to believe that. Take your skill level explanation for example. Right now, in CA it would be advantageous to have a high skill set, no? With the disappearance of factory jobs, higher skilled (and arguably more intelligent) individuals would be more likely to land a job than a non skilled person. And based on my extensive research in the following Gwen Guthrie video, "you gotta have a j-o-b" if you wanna get with the ladies:
