Scots anthem
Let’s examine this claim, firstly looking at the popularity of Burns. Unfortunately, Burns’ songs were not available on LP, CD, cassette or download for more than a hundred years after the poet’s death. If they had been, who knows how many millions would have been sold in the first 50 years?
Secondly, has Ronnie ever heard of Auld Lang Syne?
Thirdly, it is nearly 250 years since Burns died and his songs are still widely known and available in all sorts of musical formats. How can Ronnie possibly know how popular Flower of Scotland will be in, say, the year 2300?
