That "Amazing Grace" never sounds as beautiful as it does played on the bagpipes?
:wtf:
I like the bagpipes as much as the next guy, but...

Sorry, but the sound of "Amazing Grace" on bagpipes is so media-abused and beyond cliche now that,
oh never mind.

7. Actually, bagpipes can be quite beautiful. |

In the hands of a skilled piper, especially one with huge lungs, bagpipes can sound very good. In the hands of a piper in training, run for the hills.

9. I agree with Jennings. |

The only way it should ever be played is on the pipes.
