A RED, RED ROSE by Robert Burns, sung by Andy M. Stewart
Ойын-сауық
It's one of the Bard of Scotland's great poems, sung by Andy M. Stewart with Gerry Butler as Rabbie Burns. 18th and 19th century Scottish paintings and etchings were adapted as the background, and a number of actresses portray Burns' wife and many loves. One can only hope that the movie about the life of Robert Burns will one day be made. If anyone can do it, Gerry Butler is the man.

O my Luve's like a red, red rose That’s newly sprung in June; O my Luve's like the melodie That’s sweetly song in tune. As fair art thou, my bonnie lass, So deep in luve am I And I will luve thee still, my dear, Till a’ the seas gang dry: Till a’ the seas gang dry, my love, And the rocks melt wi’ the sun: I will luve thee still, my dear, While the sands o’ life shall run. And fare thee well, my only Luve And fare thee well, a while! And I will come again, my Luve, Tho’ it were ten thousand mile.
The greatest love of my life, my husband, who died far too long ago, dedicated this poem to me and now it always makes my cry because it reminds me of his love for me.

He is with you. He never left. His love enwraps you and when you dream of him, he is with you. You will meet again.
Robert Burns, like so many of the great and mighty poets and artists, taken too young like so many of these great singers of his immortal songs, stirring a love for the Scottish highlands even for those of us who have yet to visit...
This is by far the best version I’ve heard and it’s also one of my favourite songs. Brings back happiest memories of my children when they were small and my parents when my my Mum was alive.
Andy was inducted posthumously into the Scottish traditional music hall of fame on 3 December 2016.

It's a shame it was posthumously. Andy Stewart is the embodiment of Scots vocal music!!

Agreed! I learned more from Andy than I ever have elsewhere. He taught me that folk signing involved accompanying yourself. We shared a few stories in the Bon Accord bar in Glasgow, and he was the embodiment of humanity and decency. In the Bard's words ... I will love thee still my dear, 'ere the sands o' life shall run? If only we had Andy to sing it for us today ...?
Rest in peace Mr. Stewart such talent will not soon be forgotten.
The most beautiful love song ever written, composed by a genius. ROBERT BURNS.

He didn't technically write it. it already existed in scottish folk culture, and he, more or less, popularized it (by publishing it) and made it a symbol of their independence from the politically dominant england.

Burns wrote the POEM. It was a POEM. It was turned into a song (with a chorus, because the poem only had the stanza once) by "modern-day" musicians.

@@koalateacontent5094 You have it in reverse. Robert Burns wrote the poem, and then later published it as a song loosely using an already-existing Scottish folk tune. It is with the same respect as Scots Wha Hae, only that tune Tuttie Tatie is far more ancient and can be traced back at the very least to 1314.
Andy Stewart has such an enchanting voice.
beautiful picture show to accompany the song. simply wonderful. Andy with his great Robert Burns appropriate voice and the nice background accompaniment.
This song was listened for the first time in English class when I was a freshman student. Even after so many years passed, I am still so easily touched by its sweet melody and deep feelings of the lyrics… also sang by singer with such a beautiful voice … will last forever in my mind…
Who knew a Scot could be so tender!? Just beautiful, and it becomes more pertinent every year I read/listen to it.
So beautiful! Brings tears to my eyes! So special!!
worked with this guy for 20 years,in his real job! the best singer of Burns known to man, wiping tears as I type
How lucky I am to stumble upon this beautiful song. It's a gift...
sad to here of andy's passing. He was a fantastic artist, who i could listen to all day long.
I was touched to this song.

Beautiful and heartfelt are barely enough.
As a modern day thug, I like this song
i love this so much. it was my grandmas fav robby burns and we had the last 2 verses of the poem in the wee book at her funeral... always makes me cry
Love the poem by Robert Burs and the poem has been put into a beautiful song!
The most romantic Scottish song of them all !
I first heard this song in the movie Made of Honor. I like it a lot in the movie. So I looked it up and I think the song is really great.
Aye the love of poetry runs in the veins of all Scotts throughout the free world as Robbie Burns lives in the music he wrote. Sung by another proud Scot in Andy Stewart...
Looking forward to celebrating yet another Burn's Supper tonight. Best wishes to all my friends in Scotland who will no doubt be doing the same. It's " Rusty Nails " all round for me. ( Drambuie + Single Malt ) Thanks for this wonderful tribute

In the Commonwealth group that I once drank with, Rusty Nails were called Jock's Traps.
This song is so pure ,and lovely, speaks about my husband's love to me and my love to him.You are forever loved.
I first fell in love with Robert Burns music when I was twelve and read this poem in English Literature class. In college, PBS had a couple singing many of his songs at the end of Masterpiece Theater. I fell deeper in love with his words and music. A close friend, who has a beautiful tenor voice, sang this at our wedding.
I pray to the gods of Heaven and Earth that this song will remain with us until the sun grows cold. Hearing it for the first time made me weep with longing, longing for that true, that eternal love that we all desire yet so few ever find. Robert Burns, I salute thee!
Rabbie Burns and Andy Stewart are a perfect match, the Poems and the VOICE....
one of my favorite singers of Robert Burns and a great song!
Think best song Andys ever done, sung by a true scots quite agree arkbark
bella voce, bella musica, belle parole,belle emozioni!
I have always loved Robert Burns works and love reading the history of the man. Thank you for posting this video. I agree Burns makes me proud to be a Scot.
I am married to a Scottish guy and he is very loving!!
Happy birthday Rabbie, only 37 short years on this planet, yet in another 200 your name will still be honoured. The ploughman poet that taught the world rank means nothing, that we're all brithers. Thank you.
WONDERFUL Beautiful poem
This rendition of a wonderful song/poem is nothing less than a fine work of art.
The song " Ye banks and braes " is one of the legendary songs I've ever heard . This man got some really melodic mind. This song is good too.
Love this mans singing.
Then let us pray that come it may, (As come it will for a' that,) That Sense and Worth, o'er a' the earth, Shall bear the gree, an' a' that. For a' that, an' a' that, It's coming yet for a' that, That Man to Man, the world o'er, Shall brothers be for a' that. Robert Burns , my hat and heart are tipped your way. How I wish you had lived 100 years ,the more to fill our world with your breathtaking Scottish words of wonder !!! Albainn gu brath
At it Again - my most listened to CD of all time
There sure were a lot of beautiful women, back then. Beautiful art. Thank you for posting it.
This is a great poem, and a great song too. Its unfortunate that people spend more time arguing in these comments than actually commenting the video. Stop arguing over whether or not the Scottish were for a Great Britain. It happened...get over it.
Beautiful song, a great tribute to Robert Burns.
Simply the greatest lyrics ever written.
Great! This song I've been searching for! Thanks so much.
What a beautiful song--I just love Andy's voice!! The old pictures fit well with the tune; well done!
A truly beautiful version of this song. It reminds me so much of home.
best version ever thanks
Love this. I remember learning in college that so many Burns' poems were written to be sung.
A beautiful song and a beautiful slide show!
Thank you for sharing!
" I HAVE LOVED TO THE POINT OF MADNESS...THERE IS NO OTHER WAY " Thank you my dearest friend! Nightingale
I love hearing this sung the way it should be. As someone from the land of boring accents (US), it's lovely to hear this song. And it is one of the best love poems/songs ever written.
*shocked* i absolutely love the singer, the poem and the music...such wonderful combination ^^thanks Ms Uhlenhopp for your class in English history yesterday :)
Beautiful. He was some lad, Burns. Beautifully sung by Andy
beautiful. no words can do justice to this song. its amazingly done. love from india
What a Wonderful Poem ,,,
My compliments to the G Girls for this fabulous tribute to both Robbie Burns and our beloved Scot, Gerry.
The instrumental is so lovely, i even close my eyes when listening to it .
What beautiful imagery for a wonderful song. Thank you for this moment.
Fabulos song! And deep Love!
Wish someone would sing this to me... **sigh** So beautiful.
WOW! tears in my eyes
Beautiful song great pics
One of my favorite song poetry of Burns
2 proud Scottish sons at there best, sorry we let them down
Andy M Stewart is a tremendous folk singer but the greatest love song in the world deserves a classical singer. Kenneth McKellar did the best version.
❤️
Beautiful played and sung…💕
Beautiful
Robert Burns and Andy M. Stewart--what a combination!
Great song, wonderful voice, superb fiddle!
Beautiful! Happy Valentines Day from Washington State!
Absolutely beautiful..best version I've heard so far !
very very beautiful... such a lovely voice...
amazing. just amazing.
This is so beautiful. I'm listening to it and reading along to the poem at the same time. It's just so wonderfully beautiful.
My all time favourite poem.
As a big fan of Burns, and of Andy M. Stewart, thank you for this video!!
beautiful! Gerry's the perfect choice to play Burns. Makes me proud to be Scottish.
Tis makes the world go round,LOVE!!
БРАВО !!!!
Love never dies, your love still lives.
That's lovely xxxx
When Andy Stewart or Dougie MacLean sing a Robert Burns song, we learn why these songs have lasted so long. I never had any idea how beautiful a song "Auld Lang Syne" was before I heard MacLean's version. -jcr
Thank you for your kind words. I believe that too. Love is the strongest bond there is, it is eternal.
brilliant combination of song and imagery- thank you!
То мой Бернс!! как ты хорош ,какая поэзия!
I love the thought of a movie with Gerard Butler playing Robert Burns!
Beautiful!
Very beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Patricia Welch Arizona USA
so beautiful
This and Kenneth McKellar's versions are both wonderful.
As a guitarist-singer of six decades I was asked to perform at a casual Ceilidh by the Manila St Andrews Society in the Philippines last year. Although I did not know a lot of Scottish songs, my performance was well received. I will include this song in my line up this year.
Yay weir singingthis in our school girls choir this year. its just beautiful i hope to do it justice.
Your vidio touched me so deep inside , where councling cant even reach. An outlander I be an damn the queen til SCOTTLANDS FREE!!!
This is a lovely song, and beautifully put together. Its nice to hear a version that sticks to the melody. Im trying to learn this song and Im glad I heard this version.
