Paolo Nutini - A Man's a man

[@cargoeng]

Played this last week as my father was laid to rest in the crematorium, he loved Burns, and he would have loved Paolos' rendition.

[@malinbegger]

im from donegal and i think paolo nutuini is a legend and he makes this song great. C mon Donegal

[@allanr7123]

Love this! My 10 and 8 year old are now walking about the house singing Burns, makes me so happy!

[@ruadhagainagaidheal9398]

I’m weeping tears of joy at this wonderful version.

[@greenstarlite]

What a man! What a country! So much pride...I love this! Makes me wish I was Scottish!!!

[@johnwilson9328]

Still a classic version of one of the greatest scottish songs of all time

[@tazz121]

without a shadow of a doubt the best version i have heard. Burns would indeed be proud. A great tribute to a national legend, well done Paulo man

[@Suze1979]

Wow! Paolo is one of the best musicians of our time and he makes me proud to be Scottish!

[@kkeith11]

Love Paolo, and I love this song. My dad's fave song, so much that's he's already asked that it's plaed at his funeral. Make's me proud to be Scottish, Burn's words ring true today and the world can still learn from them.

[@Macangusagain]

Paolo is just amazing! No wonder the young people of Scotland have made his records million sellers, and I admire their choice and taste in music, they are spot on !!!! Albainn gu Brath,

[@rmd8873]

Today, more than ever, listen and believe, we are worth more than any politician!!

[@kkeith11]

Some of the best words ever written; makes me proud to be a Scot and hopeful that people listen to these words and put them into practice in their lives.

[@missCELIAcdisease]

Oh my gosh, I freaking love this song! He's amazing! I'm not even Scotish whatsoever, but I'm totally with all of you for your independence! If I could, I would vote yes! :D

[@BillDFC]

Paolo....this is a brilliant version...well done min

[@nonamezleft]

As Burns' himself said; "Man's inhumanity to man makes countless thousands mourn!"

[@miaschu8175]

I love his vibratto - it reaches places other singers' can't!

[@scottt923]

I'm a proud to be Scottish. Wouldn't be any other nationality.

[@mwc6397]

Still so good x

[@barefootfiona]

I want to see Paolo Nutinit do a whole album of Burns covers.

[@SH-lm6ek]

That trail was blazed already by The Corries

[@TheMistyisle]

Gon yersel Paolo! Fantastic - Rabbie would be proud of you!

[@aggyuvf]

Superb Paolo if i ever leave Scotland i will be in tears to this

[@StewartNicolasBILLYCONNOLLY]

Paolo catches the whole philosophy of being Scottish - which is the same philosophy from Timbuktu to Cape Horn - The Scots Nation were never beaten and can always relate to their brothers - Maori, Navajo, Nigerian, Apache, Aborigine, Lakota, Ghanaian - the Scots stood up to the English government and spread their love across the whole world!

[@jamesbyker]

no coment...just fanttastic..

[@MsScotty55]

paolo can sing anything you give him...........hes fantastic wat a voice

[@nacho1560]

Well done young man. So many young maybe think Rabbie was a bit dated. Thanks for helping bring him into the modern world.

[@nacho1560]

I agree Tad, but many young people don't have a clue who Rabbie Burns was. I was praising Paolo for singing his songs and thus showing his beliefs are still alive today.

[@limepallas]

such a brilliant song from brilliant writer and sung by a man who sings from the soul

[@Heidibae03]

I love your version happy burns day everyone

[@wenkgibkcoj]

makes you proud to be scottish,its amazing how a poem written so long ago is still so relevant today,it absolutly should be the new national anthem,its uplifting and emotional,can you imagine a 60 thousand strong tartan army singing a mams a man around hampden,much better than the dreary "THOSE HILLS ARE BARE NOW"lyrics from flower of scotland,

[@webchic00]

Oh yeas. This is just wonderful, I can't get sick of listening to this song. Cheers Paolo!

[@rowanbass7990]

Why the fuck would you vote no!?! Scotland is the greatest country on the planet! Thumbs up if you have Scottish Pride!

[@jennaormsby2153]

Rowan Bass YAAASSSSS

[@sirderam1]

Being something of a traditionalist I knew I was going to hate this - I was wrong, it was excellent! They stuck to the tune, though played in a modern, punchy style and they stuck to the words and sang them with vigor and passion.

[@stewartnicol3028]

sirderam1 Well done to you! You obviously have an open mind willing to embrace change. Much power to you! 🎵

[@nathanrose3523]

Simaler views to an extent best version of us ye jacobites I've heard was put the gether by serb, love it !

[@Redgrave95472]

Brilliant. Paolo refreshes the ancient lyric of men who are human against all odds in a strident feminist age. When the Gay Men's Chorus from London appeared for the first time in Edinburgh in May 2007, they brought down the house when they left camp behind at the moment when a Scotsman came out in kilt and sang this Robbie Burns song. We American tourists who chanced upon this performance fainted dead away. Omigod. Go, Paolo, go. Where is your CD cut of this?

[@michellepeoplelikeyoumurde8373]

You dot get it pal ! And by the way the name is Robert or Rab never robbie

[@donwatson2741]

man to man the world ower....nice one Paolo.

[@hansmeyer403]

What a powerful rendition on par with that at the opening of the Parliament! EU has that beautiful poem by Schiller to Beethoven's music. A Man's should be the UN anthem!!!

[@aggyuvf]

Great song Paolo,stirs the hackles when a watch it

[@StewartNicolasBILLYCONNOLLY]

I wish I was the same age as Paulo....In Scotland (which means the whole fuckin' world...) his music, words and general feel are real! If I should be so privileged as to work with Paolo Nutini I would consider myself blessed....the MAN'S THE GOWD for aw that

[@Honeybee481]

Pure , Raw and brilliant !

[@chrishackett6543]

All those complaining about cultural descent "and a' that" are the kind of people who Burns eloquently scorns within his song.

[@PUCCINIMUSICK]

iT'S NOT A FENIAN TRICOLOUR, IT'S AN ITALIAN FLAG BY JOVE! Great thing, Paolo. Don't know your music so well but I like this movie VERY much. Splendid song and the rebel spirit of Burns is all there. Braw!

[@Caitlin_travels]

Ohhhh Wow, love itt. Gorgeous. Dottee you just love his accent :)

[@scottirvine121]

Stunning still

[@StewartNicolasBILLYCONNOLLY]

[@ZESTYWONDERLAND]

Closed my eyes & dreamed I was in Scottland! Thanks!

[@funlove2385]

Wow what a lovely voice 😊 It's so beautiful 😍

[@wilfriedschuler3796]

Great performance. He could be a great, great, great son. And a really great one. In the sense of the word.

[@jamiepaton5]

burns is a fuckin genius, wee paolo does the song much justice and this is my favourite version of the song by a country mile. moan the jocks

[@cheerydavie]

wonderful !!! great version thank you if the young people sing hhis songs Rabbie will celebrete another 250yrs [its the BURNS 250yrs since his birth] SCOTLAND has opened here doors so everyone can visir Scotland in 2009

[@shriner62]

OMG, he truly IS a real Scot! What I wadnae gie tae hear'm sing "Flower of Scotland" at the op'nin o' a national rugby match! NZ in the fa' mebbe? We can on'y hope! Is it my imagination, or does he actually bear a resemblance tae Auld Rab?

[@xoLiveeYoureLifeexo]

breathtaking ,

[@nyhcara]

i saw this show on Burns night it was braw! i think is great that Paolo uses his accent when he sings. woohoo giesa sang!

[@JoTheSnoop]

I would like to see more modern singers/bands that can do it, able to perform classic folk songs. Top performance by Paolo. P.S: this post comes from an Australian! :)

[@smilekatysmile]

great version Paolo

[@theneepster]

Brilliant !

[@shriner62]

OMG He truly IS a real Scot! What I wadnae gie tae hear'm sing "Flower of Scotland" at the op'nin o' a national rugby match! NZ in the fa' mebbe? We can on'y hope!

[@TheSnowsbeauty5]

my friend Ann lives in Glasgow,Love from USA! x

[@norsemind]

Fantastic rendition -the sentiments of Socialism and pride are ageless and belong to no particular generation. That a 21 year old can sing this song with such enthusiasm today would have brought a smile to Burns's face. Well done that man!

[@darrensam1]

Och aye, vote YES!

[@sheywright]

love this guy

[@StewartNicolasBILLYCONNOLLY]

Oh Yes OH YESSSS! Robert would have embraced this as the way forward!

[@sandy7108]

fantastic

[@PrincessIcicle]

I really love this song. Paolo is awesome!

[@pierreyvesmignotte70]

This is soooooo brilliant!

[@shahla620]

the 13 people who disliked this obviously cant hear!

[@wilfriedschuler3796]

I agree. And 9 years later, there are 28 ass holes more. Forget them.

[@geordiesworld]

feckin brilliant get in there ... Happy Burns night ! Good on ye Nutini

[@alexadeadpebble5843]

I love his acsent

[@MrDarthVadersMom]

LOVE!! Very BURNS!!

[@forsythdeirdre]

Love this

[@paddySc12]

His mum comes from Glasgow and his dad side of the family has been in Scotland for 4 generations! I THINK THATS PRETTY DAMN SCOTTISH!

[@Bloodlustless]

He has a good voice!

[@cathypaton8168]

Brilliant :-)

[@macadavy]

Freekin' right on, bro!

[@isalukin2c2c]

If I was a Scott's I would be so proud of this....

[@delboystir1]

I would love to see Scottish independence and I believe in my life time I will however I don't see how "A mans a man" has anything to with independence for Scotland. That Man to Man, the world o'er, Shall brothers be for a' that.

[@paulwilson2651]

It sums up the Scotland we all would like to see.

[@PrincessIcicle]

I love this song wow this is amazing!

[@laetitiaandmike]

i love you !! lol i love when he sings this song !

[@AllanEdwardo]

@TheWardlaw1 The sentiments may be written and sung in Scots, but the song transend petty nationalism. "That man to man, the world over, shall brothers be for all that" - Thank you TheWardlaw1 for the reminder.

[@dorothykelly8924]

awesome. I even played along with my Uke

[@69discodiva]

he is a cool guy at singer he is brilant andcool

[@AntarcticDreamer]

I've not heard it like that very often, I think it depends where you come from in Scotland . But then, that's prety much the same for anything.

[@richardmoore890]

Very damn cool

[@johnwilson9328]

A great modern version of an absolutely brilliant song.

[@ghostpiper1]

Proud I can call him my Brother :)

[@PnPSc91]

Well if Paolo is singing like a sheep, I have to say I´ve never seen a better singing sheep! He must be the most gorgeous sheep on this planet! ;) Paolo is the best!

[@lisalein1]

He looks more sober than many lately. Awesome performance

[@StewartNicolasBILLYCONNOLLY]

The Scottish Nation has been under the English heel since 1707! Forget the religious side - England has been under a German Monarchy for these 300 years - Scotland must take back Her Birthright - an enlightened vision of the future which embraces ALL Nations as Brothers and Sisters One World - One Love!

[@stevieteez]

can any 1 tell me how tae download this tune? it a beast ae a tune!!!!

[@TheAmazingamerica]

@GilleanFreire The Jewish center of Scotland? Thanks for the info, I didn't realize that is where Paisley's orginated from, Hellmans mayo, weaving, and Scottish Whiskey.

[@ElenorT]

[@jamiepaton5]

Imagine burns doing that, it would be absolutely EPIC!!!!!!

[@sloanl189]

Amazin Mon The Weegies Paolo rocks x

[@AYEscotland]

Happy Birthday Rabbie! Sae come aa ye at hame wi freedom Never heed whit the houdies croak for Doom In yer hous aa the bairns o Aidam Will fin breid, barley-bree an paintit room Whan MacLean meets wi's friens in Springburn Aa thae roses an geeans will turn tae blume An a black laud frae yont Nyanga Dings the fell gallows o the burghers doun. Freedom come aa ye!

[@takineti]

@TaiDieVest I have to disagree, this is not a song for the Hoi Polloi to sit in their drawing rooms and discuss the working classes patronizingly, Paolo captures the tone of the song perfectly, the rawer the sound of this song, the more fitting. (And by this comment I am in NO way suggesting Ronnie Browne is one of the Hoi Polloi.)

[@GreatScot007]

Scottish Enlightenment. on ye go Paolo Dain it fir us Scots. Can ye imagine Burns reciting it , now that would be amazing...och eiy

[@alidodd9466]

good👌

[@awrashoo]

Is there a downloadable version of this song??
