Amazing Grace with bagpipes and symphony orchestra

“Amazing Grace” is an iconic Christian hymn written in 1772 by English Anglican clergyman and poet John Newton (1725–1807). Originally published in 1779 as part of a collection called Olney Hymns, the song has since become one of the most widely recognized songs in the English-speaking world. The lyrics of the song emphasize forgiveness, redemption and hope which has resonated with listeners around the globe.

Scottish accent vs Irish accent

Both the Scottish and Irish accents have distinctive features that make them distinct from one another. The Scottish accent is generally known for its soft, rolling “r” sound and its use of dropped consonants, while the Irish accent is characterized by a more up-and-down rhythm with longer vowels and harder consonant sounds. Scots tend to pronounce words with a flattened vowel sound and draw out the consonants at the end of a word, while Irish people use a lot of inflections and intonations in their speech.
