On Ilkla Moor Baht 'at (Yorkshire National Anthem): Guitar: Ilkla Moor Baht'at

Symphony for Yorkshire: A Symphony for Yorkshire - BBC One

And a bit of fun: Original 4 Yorkshiremen Sketch
Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in...

- from Anthem, by Leonard Cohen (b 1934)
