Nice one. This song was written by Michael Marra for a tv play called 'a wee home from home' ( i think ) . He's pretty well known in Scotland and is has written a lot for plays , particularly at Dundee rep. All his songs are fantastic but this one seems to have trancended above all the rest and become something really special. Pat Kanes version is the definitive one!

the brothers are without doubt one of the finest exports that this small country
has produced ,the hard work that they put in deserve global recognition, vocals, music,they have the lot looking forward to february.
