There are so many versions of this classic out there it takes courage to offer up another. Unless of course you have the Midas voice of this woman. Pure gold with the most honest, unpretentious pronunciation of Burns I think I've ever heard. She sounds like she's just travelled 250 years forward in time. My favorite part was the smile in the last verse when she permits herself a little pride in her female perfection. Old nature excelled herself with this one.
bein an american, I need the words printed out to understand the Scottishisms, but that does not even the slightest bit detract from this unbelievably beautiful rendition, and even when I cannot find the words it is still perfection... and yes, I love the twinkle in her eyes as she sings the line of how nature only "practiced" on man... gotta love it
Being a proud, God fearing Irish Catholic, it's hard for me to admit I'm a great admirer of Burns' work, knowing how staunchly Protestant he was but yeh can't take away from his poetry. I 1st heard of Burns not in a classroom (I was educated by the Jesuits & there's no way would they teach the works of someone the likes of Burns given his beliefs & background) The 1st piece of Burns' work I encountered was actually off my Uncle's cigarette packet. He smoked a non-filtered brand called "Afton Major" & on the packet was an image of Burns & an extract from his work, "Sweet Afton"; "Flow Gently Sweet Afton Among Thy Green Braes, Flow Gently I'll Sing Thee A Song Of Thy Praise" I studied all the Irish wizards with words from; Shaw to Joyce & Kavanagh to Behan & Wilde to Mangan Geniuses the lot of them & I would put Burns on a similar pedestal.

Best version yet ma dearie. Sublime, thank you so much. X

Her prentice hand she try'd on Man.
And then she made the Lasses, O.
Exactly. A little self conscious, a little delight in the truth of it.

John Prine and Nanci Griffith smoked Afton Major, Johns widow Lynda Whelan is from Co Donegal ☘️☘️☘️
I am ashamed to say I only discovered this wonderful voice yesterday,
Beautifully accompanied ,a wonderful lyrical performance.
One of the best versions in any century. Definitely my go-to for this song (though I have a recording off BBC Radio I'm more attached to).
Can't stop playing this! ❤️
Great version,loved it
What a wonderful version, Burns was a genius
Beautiful!
why is this kind of music so underrated
henryhonkhonk oh no. oh boy
Because the music industry is demonic.
Because the left dominates the media, and they are determined to destroy everything that is good in Western cultures.
@@ivandinsmore6217 Is this satire? I genuinely can't tell if you're joking?

This is so beautiful. Ummmm . . . I think the title is "Green Grow the Rushes, Oh" not Rashes, though. Still so beautiful.
In Scots it’s ’rashes’. I see where you’re coming from, but it’s actually the correct term.
@@allypally2895 Thank you! I was thinking "rushes" which in American English are plants that grow by the river. Thank you for clarifying.
@@allypally2895 thank you! I did not know. My husband's family is very Scottish, so I'm thankful to be corrected. Her voice is so lovely.
@@itsmebd1 it’s all good. It’s generally the same in UK English, but in this case she’s singing a Robbie Burns song, who used Scots language.
She's the Scottish Alison Krauss
Honey god love ya Paul p Birmingham England xx lol ❤🌞
