Excellent cover of a great song.

To celebrate the birthday of Scotland's favourite son, here are a couple of versions of "Auld Lang Syne". Next year, we'll have to get oldrottenhead to sing the original Scots lyrics ("We twa hae paidl'd i' the burn, frae morning sun till dine", etc.).

A little known Robbie Burns piece

"This Be The Verse

They fuck you up, your mum and dad.
They may not mean to, but they do.
They fill you with the faults they had
And add some extra, just for you.

But they were fucked up in their turn
By fools in old-style hats and coats,
Who half the time were soppy-stern
And half at one another's throats.

Man hands on misery to man.
It deepens like a coastal shelf.
Get out as early as you can,
And don't have any kids yourself."
― Robert Burns

Happy Burns night
