@UnitedScots - where exactly do you live? Even if Scots by birth or parentage, still British (nationality) and the Scots diapora has spread throughout UK & Canada & USA & South Africa and beyond.
Stop being so parochial and please listen to last verse - Matt McGinn was a fine internationalist!
That's so good...for me, it's also a call to sooo many people I know who live in the Central Belt (Glasgow across to Edinburgh) who never get off their backsides and go and see the country they live in, preferring to jet off to Spain etc....Scotland (has it faults), but is really a stunning country.
@nacho1560 had not heard this song since the 70's, and heard it when abroad,on a local radio station I am not ashamed to say I cried like a wee boy! It brought back so many happy memories of my childhood. It was also a double edged sword (Claymore?) I was so bloody homesick I went back not too long after that. 10 minutes in the cold and I knew it was a mistake! What a great song
Forever Scottish ...And proud of it :)

Never heard this one before. Wonderful. Matt's right.
Scotland is a majestic country, beautiful, glorious.
When we gain our independence what a land we'll have to enjoy.
