  • hey watch it smart ass

  • Now don't get all excited and start cuttin' on yourself kid!

  • you say "watch it smart ass" and why should any of us check ourselves when dealing with a retard such as yourself? what are you going to do to us? If you were a true emo you would have killed yourself by now, so piss off and go back to dwelling on your HIM and Type O threads, and spare us your idiocy

  • ive been trying to mum stops me all the time so die in a deep dark hole underground alive

  • "die in a deep dark hole underground alive"

    That statement is inherently contradictory, thus makes no sense. By making no sense you betray your intelligence, or lack there of. QED

  • As I always say for a good performance.......bloody ripper!

  • Great job. I think you have a great voice and the young fiddlers and the guitarist are also great. By the way I think the two young ladies are realy good looking.

  • EXCELLENT!!!!! making me homesick as well...not to mention driving my neighbors crazy here in New York City!!!!

  • Thank you so much. I have traveled to NS a lot in the last few years. But no more.. I miss the country, the people and this music.

  • you got that right!!! ive only been here 6 months and i wanna go home already!

  • Fantastic!!  I loved it and I'm from the Prairies.

    The fiddle music from around here sounds a lot different. I love it when young people take up the fiddle. I'm always afraid it's a tradition we're going to lose.

  • Hail Nova Scotia!

  • I love this song. And the fiddler chick (the first one with a closeup) is HOT!!

  • superb and a wee bottle whiskey sets it off perfect....love the tune...visiting nova scotia in the spring from auld scotland hoping its as great as i been told

  • Man this is great, and I really like your voice. I'm trying to figure this song out on clawhammer banjo. I hope to actually go to Nova Scotia this coming Spring. I've wanted to for ages, it seems like exactly the place I need to be.

  • get rid of the drink bottle and it looks like a family having fun around the table

  • Lots of fun! Can I borrow the smiling fiddlers for accompaniment? I play this song and love it. Ron Finlay: lifelong Downtown Winnipegger, and one year Cape Bretoner, Mira Road, Sydney (1974-75).

  • GREAT!! keep a good thing going. I am glad i am not the only one who enjoys music like this.

  • ....and after the tears I picked up my bodhran and played with yous

  • Im a Cape Bretoner living in Toronto right now. I watched this and I feel like crying.
