    Eddi is the only artist that when I went to one of her concerts, she asked the audience for requests and sung every song requested. Great voice, talent and person.

    Though being German and probably the lousiest guitarist one can imagine, I just ordered a „Robbie Burns“ songbook some 3 days ago!
    Can’t wait for it to arrive and get myself acquainted with „Robbie‘s“ compositions and poetry 🤗😍🥰😘!
    Thank you so very much for your wonderful artistry and your sweet voice, Eddie 🤩🥳😍!

      Being a non native speaker and only having scratched the surface of the „Scots“ dialect, I misheard the proper pronunciation of Robert Burns‘s nickname used by the Scots!
      It is indeed „Rabbie Burns“, not Robbie 😘!

    There's nothing more moving than listening to a Scottish folk song being sung by a singer with a pure natural Scottish accent/voice. Eddi does so much justice to this ballad. Eddi's guitar skills are really great as well. As for 'specs' which commenter, down below remarked on; well, I guess, Eddi needed them to play guitar. I'm definitely going to purchase her Robbie Burns CD. I was so bowled over with her modern rendition of Auld Lange Synge that she sung some years ago at Scottish parliament.

    I’ve always loved Robert Burns’ poems, and this piece is my absolute favourite. I’ve recited it to my wife a few times over the years.
    I had wondered how it would sound like if Robbie Burns himself delivered this beautiful sonnet.
