Burns's evaluation of the tune Mairi Campbell is cashing in on:

I agree.

The old tune was crap and the one we sing today caught on for a reason.

You have said this before Jack, and it is an opinion I profoundly disagree with. You only have to listed to Rod Paterson, on several youtube clips, singing this tune to know that it is far superior.

Note that Mairi's show is at 4.30.pm in case you were thinking it would be in the evening! If it's anything like her "Pulse" show was, it will be a cracker!
Sssssyne!
