At first the tempo seemed just the tiniest bit slow, but oh my goodness, when the beautiful, beautiful vocals joined in with the ever so slight "steamroller" effect added, I was totally carried away. Don't change a thing kids. Thank you, and "Huzzah!" from Texas.
Green grow the rashes, O! Green grow the rashes, O! The sweetest hours that e'er I spend, Are spent amang the lasses, O! There's nought but care on every han' In every hour that passes, O; What signifies the life o' man, An 'twere na for the lasses, O? The warl'ly race may riches chase, An' riches still may fly them, O; An' though at last they catch them fast, Their hearts can ne'er enjoy them, O. But gi'e me a canny hour at e'en, My arms about my dearie, O, An' warl'ly cares an' warl'ly men May a' gae tapsalteerie, O! For you sae douce, ye sneer at this, Ye're nought but senseless asses, O; The wisest man the warl' e'er saw, He dearly loved the lasses, O. Auld Nature swears yon lovely dears Her noblest work she classes, O; Her 'prentice han' she tried on man, An' then she made the lasses, O.
My daughter also sent me this............all fine vocals / harmony , in particular ( excuse my ignorance of name ) the fiddle player's vocal on solo.....my , he has a lovely quality there.
Is it too much to ask that one day somebody would make the effort to pronounce the words of this and other Scots songs in Scots? This sounds as if somebody sat down and did their level best to eradicate the Scots pronunciation entirely; no wonder the language is dying when pricks like these, who should know better, can't even make an effort to keep it alive.
I can't explain why this is one of the greatest things I've ever heard.......it just is !
LOGAN ROY brought me here even if, as an Italian, I don't understand the words. Wonderful music and performance.
Absolutely breathtaking.
John Langhan brought me here. Owe him twice now.

There's nought but care on every han'

An' riches still may fly them, O;
An' though at last they catch them fast,
Their hearts can ne'er enjoy them, O.
But gi'e me a canny hour at e'en,
My arms about my dearie, O,
An' warl'ly cares an' warl'ly men
May a' gae tapsalteerie, O!

Atmospheric. Accomplished. But a bit overdone.
Burns could never decide whether to use the Scottish tongue or some hybrid alternative. Same here.

Wow - what a horrid comment -
Maybe you should post a video of the way you want it but obviously you have no talent only vitriol for those that do I fear you are the prick
I totally agree with you chum
Could not agree more.
