i love Eddi singing Burns, john anderson and willie stewart being favourites,i also love the song Wild mountainside she stole from her partner,i heared them singing it together in Troon a few weeks ago ...great! happy new year to you and yours x
This is an excellent version of the song - passionate, rich, takes it to a new place, feels original. The jauntiness of the tune is a great counterpoint to the lyrics. Some of the saddest songs have a merry beat to them and this is a great take on a sad song. This particular video is a bit shaky, but her recording on the CD Peacetime is magic.
I think how you perform this song is not weather its good or bad but the fact that every Scotsman/ (women) understands the passion of what this song really means and you dont have to like this version of this song but just be respectful because it is of our people and everyone fairs differently.

I think it's great and roert would love it, I'm sure. we are free to interpret and it connects w/ me
The tune belongs to Scotland... It inspired Tagore to compose his own version, with its own magic.
I'm singing this as a solo for contest... I'm singing it in a WAAAAY different style!
And that, children, is how to rip somebody to shreds. Made my day :)
Ive got to play that on my Cello and its sooooo easy =]
this is like a terrier taking a rag doll a shaking the de'jazus of it .....
i used to hate this version when i heard it last year, but now...i just wanna laugh LOL for no reason
I don't know about anyone else but I quite liked this version....hate me for that....
I love Eddi -- but this version is a wee bit too fast for me. Her version of "Ae Fond Kiss"
i sang this song in cmea but im not very fond of this version
I love Eddi but I can not stand what she does to Burns Aaaargh I never wanna hear this version again!!!!
