Quite profound in its own way, first time I heard this, nicely done.

RIP Lionel, I'll miss you mate!

[CaTheYowes]

R.I.P. Lionel. I'll miss you

“His uncomb'd hoary locks, wild-staring, thatched

A head for thought profound and clear unmatch'd;

Yet tho' his caustic wit was biting rude,

His heart was warm, benevolent and good.”

Robert Burns

From: ‘The Poet’s Progress’ 1788

I like this poem, even though it makes me sad.

I may never look at a crows the same way again.

I'm trying to learn some Robert Burns songs and found your great version of 'A mans a man for a' that' very natural and honest. This is a great wee poem, very well performed too. I lived next to a place called Crow Wood, so I know the Craw well. I look forward to finding more of your stuff here on YouTube.

Great poem Lionel. Although I love nature, I can't stand the craw, one alone is not bad. But let the buggers gather and they become a murder. And not a common craw! :)
