about

This is the style of arrangement that we managed to avoid in the first song. It's a good old song with a fine array of "buckler and battle-axe" and as long as Scots treat these songs as historical, romantic wishful-thinking, then we're OK. Our people can make great strides in this country, employing something much more powerful than a broadsword; just a wee piece of paper with a cross on it.
