"Ae Fond Kiss" and Burns

[thescot]

Yes, Ae Fond Kiss is a very emotive goodbye song, always brings back memories of happy times with past loves.

Yes, Alex, I agree. It is almost haunting in its beauty and pathos.

Of course, Clarinda, aka "Nancy," was leaving Burns and Scotland for Jamaica . . . and her husband!

Kind of gets you all choked up.

Better than getting all shot up.

I'm particularly partial to Eddi Reader's take.

Our own Blaxcot (aka Mike Ogletree) has also recorded a nice reggaefied version:
