Why would we be thinking of Burns this Friday? Oh, who knows? For some reason though we couldn’t help but recall:
“For a’ that, an’ a’ that,
Their dignities, an’ a’ that,
The pith o’ Sense an’ pride o’ Worth
Are higher rank than a’ that.”
And since we’re a music site after all it seems only appropriate to listen to the words of Robert Burns as sung by Ewan MacColl.
“It’s comin yet for a’ that,
That Man to Man the warld o’er
Shall brithers be for a’ that .“
