    My mum was Nancy, she died in 2013 and I miss her every day. I know the poem/song was written in a romantic context, but it's one of my favourites and always reminds of my dear wee mum. I've heard many people sing it but Eddi truly does it justice and breathes life into centuries old words ❤️

    I may have commented previously.
    My brother suggested this song, this version, to escort my mother's coffin out of our church. My dad agreed. I have no recollection of that journey on the day but I know any challenge, personal or physical, I've had since , this song has always been to hand.
    Beautiful song.
    Beautifully sung.
    Thank you Eddi Reader!

      Robert Loved Nancy in spite of her being wed tae anither. His spirit never got over his love for her. Here, in 2019, Burn's spirit still loves every single female that ever enticed him into her embrace. Love can only ever be one thing in spite of what society says. Love is Love.

    I'm from Portugal, but I feel Eddi is as part of me as part of her scottish heritage.

    Having a wee burns supper down under in Whakatane to celebrate Burns life Think Ae fond kiss is one of his all time classics.Ae fond kiss and then we sever
    Ae fareweel, alas for ever
    Deep in heart-wrung tears I’ll pledge thee
    Warring sighs and groans I’ll wage thee
    Who shall say that fortune grieves him
    While the star of hope she leaves him
    Me, nae cheerful twinkle lights me
    Dark despair around benights me
    I’ll ne’er blame my partial fancy
    Nothing can resist my Nancy
    For to see her was to love her
    Love but her, and love for ever
    Had we never loved sae kindly
    Had we never loved sae blindly
    Nor never met, nor never parted
    We would never have been so broken-hearted
    Fare thee weel, my first and fairest
    Fare thee weel, my best and dearest
    Thine be like joy and treasure…
    Peace, enjoyment, love and pleasure
    Mmm, ae fond kiss, and then we sever
    Ae fareweel alas, for ever
    Deep in heart-wrung tears I’ll pledge thee
    Warring sighs and groans I’ll wage thee

    Couldn't get the words out properly for the tears blinding me, and the most massive lump I've ever had in my throat, as I tried to speak to my mate to tell him to download this.
    I missed Eddi when she sang at the Mauchline Holy Fair a couple of years ago.
    Shit - I live 100 metres from where she sang. What was I thinking???
    Anyway, she is immense and always does Rabbie Burns so proud.

    Eddi has always been and will stay a favourite of mine.I haven't found anything she has brought out that I don't like.Only an Artist of her calibre is able to put so much heart into a piece of work making you belive and feel every word that comes out of her mouth.You can see how much Eddi loves performing.

    If Nancy recorded in her diary "This day I will never forget, for this was the last day I saw Robert" - If this was how Nancy recorded her feelings, then how much more did Robert feel the loss of his relationship with Nancy? He wrote "AE FOND KISS"

      It's Robert' s reputation as a womaniser that makes the singer suspect he didn't take long to get over Nancy.

      @@rogerdavies8586 - Robert may have loved the lassies but by the same token the lassies loved Robert. He wrote romantic poems to each what other 'womaniser' did that.
