1. Scots 'Wa hae - Burns

2. Green Grow the Rashes'O - Burns

3. Auld Land Syne - Burns again

4. Ae Fond Kiss - Burns again !!

5. Flower Of Scotland - The Corries.

Still think we need a new national anthem , something rousing like the Irish one , if olny we could get something as memorable as the French Anthem - that wid be guid. :)

Did Chick Young marry Soeziegoezie and live happily ever after in Belgium, then? :huh:
