  • I'm here because "Jack" Churchill was a badass and played this song during battle.

  • GOD BLESS SCOTLAND AND THE SCOTS

  • Scotland and Ireland created America. Bold statement but true!

  • @robcas631 AMERICA was already there but the natives got raped diseased and murdered

  • @robcas631 Uhhh..........No not really.Better study your history a wee bit more.I have Napier and some Irish,but geneology shows they were later arrivals.Apparently Napier was captured by Cromwell and sent to the colonies around 1651. The Irish in the early 18th century.My Dutch,English,French and Swedish ancestors arrived before them.I won't get into my Cherokee and Lenni Lanape roots.Whose land all the new comers stole along with murdering them.

  • @gbuscg many irish enslaved by cromwell aye!

  • don`t you mean the english armies

  • lol this Irish folk music is great

  • Comment removed

  • It's actually Scottish...

  • Gotta love that Irish music.

  • Will ye no come back again is almost identical to "sound the pibroch", i wonder which lyrical author copied who... Love the Corries though of course!! my father and his musical partner is one of, if no the biggest and best names in their field of Scottish music today (accordion cielidh music, his band is Donny and Dianes highland ceilidh band, check them out if you appreciate traditional Scottish music, you may also catch them often on heartland fm + radio Scotland.. Peace and prosperity to all.

  • I like the song and video because of its old fashioned look. Im from Estonia and we also had a jacobite governor Douglas of Stuarts once in 18th century. My grandparents were the last residents in his castle of Albu 50km from Talllinn

  • I have to admit, too, that this version is achingly beautiful. Thanks so much for sharing it.

  • why do scotts have their panties in a bunch about the union. it can't be that bad, just quit bitching about it. also, don't bother responding to this because im not going to read it anyway

  • @Battlepanda911 You can't even spell Scots properly so that tells me something about you right away. Your better not typing anything as you know fuck all.

  • @Battlepanda911 - Then why express your ignorant view. As if there arent anti american people already in europe, its due to faggots such as yourself. If your complaining about scottish nationalism you should have a go at american nationalism. Why do americans get their panties in a bunch about the 4th of July? so shut yer hole boy

  • @Battlepanda911 - not as if your history goes further back than 1777 so you wouldnt know fuck all about our struggle in 45'

  • @Battlepanda911 My family were English Jacobites who fled to Ireland.  This song has meaning for me, too. Not only are the Scots labouring under forgeign rule, it's the =wrong- freaking rule!

  • 42 seconds!!!

    Are they guys mental LOL

  • I can understand why you wan't Scotland to be an independent nation, I mean, independence is something we all strive for, but does anyone really know what you gain from being joined with England and Wales, and what you might lose if you do remove yourself from it? Please, someone explain it to me

  • If i were Scottish I'd want my country free, plus as an American, i totally get the hole rebellion thing.

  • NO UNION

  • @BonnieBlueFlag1314 The union as we know it, is now finished! it passed it's sell by date away, the signs were beginning to show as far back as the 60s

  • @BonnieBlueFlag1314 The majority of scots never wanted the union! it was the backstabbing nobility who signed to make the 1707 act of union legal.

    They stood to gain a buck or two from joining with the rest of Britain.

  • SCOTLAND WILL BREAK THE SO CALLED 'UNION'

  • the story o wallace will pit a scottish prejiduce in ma viens that will rin alang till the fllod gattes o life will gang shut, nae uinion!!!!!!!!!

  • The spirit of the glen......May God bless you all

  • qué genios que son estos chabones (that's argentinian for "These guys are so great")

  • When was this video made? Beautiful landscape!!!

  • exalant ever like a hymn!!!!!!!!!!

  • This was the first song I ever learned at school. :) :(

  • margaret holland

  • Should have known the Corries would turn in a masterly rendition of Bonny Charlie.

  • NO UNION

  • I agree but I don't think we will ever get our Independence back.

    There are too many self preservanionists among us...we are our own worst enemies.

    We can but hope.....

  • We can do it.

    You are correct though, we are our own worst enemy.

  • Scots have been betraying Scots since the time of Wallace and continue to do so.

    Independence will never happen,not until we rise above politics and religion.

    What are the chances of that?

  • Well if we give it a go, then we are a chance.

    If we fall into a defeatist sulk about it, then it will never happen, but we would of never tried either.

  • @BillDFC I totally agree with you.

  • @BillDFC There are always chances of that things.

    A Scotsman betraying another is not something of great importance; it's more like a tradition.

  • And prosperity to Scotland!

  • Sumptuous accompanying video to two splendid songs! Many thanks for posting, firefly!

  • Britian over its vast history has been formed by many anti democratic decisions right back to the first settler....lets have a democratic (subjective I know) reset especially after all the scandals and see what we look like then hehe

  • nach e an t-Eilean Muileach direach Muile? Ach cò-dhiù, tha an t-òran seo uabhasach math - beannachd air Teàrlach Òg agus a àthair. Alba gu sìorraidh agus saor alba... CEARTAS AIRSON A' GHÀIDHLIG

  • Played for our Regiment by the Scots Guards as we passed through Edinburgh towards home in Canada after our deployment in the Golan Heights. Still touching.

  • Thats ironic!! Considering this song was written about a man the "British" army were fighting against.

    Prosperity to Scotland and No Union!

  • Tut mir leid ich verstehe diese Srache nicht

  • @helleho

    es ist ein leide ueber die richtige king (kaiser?) von Schotland wer hat die kreig gegen die Englander nicht gewonnen.

    in Deutsch "bitte zuruch kommen".

    Entschuldigen fur mein Schelchte Deutsch,

  • @TheGheet

    war richtig gut (you are quite good!)

    slainte mhar :-)

  • ich mußte weinen,ich bin in dem falschen Land geboren

  • Haha, někdy mám stejný pocit.

  • Tut mir leid ich verstehe diese Sprache nicht

  • I just have to agree. Sometimes I've got the same feeling :)

  • An helleho: Mach dir nix draus. Bayern verstehen auch kein Friesisch

  • Beautiful, all! Tune and scenery!

  • How beautiful!

  • Thanks for posting this rare Corries!

  • Music to my ears indeed. Im sure I was born in the wrong country :(

  • I honestly have to agree completely with smith 13457 awesome!!!

  • Brilliant music,beautifull scenery.

    Never mind harry potter,what about Bonnie prince charlie.

  • Harry who?

  • @smith13457 I'd like to see a new movie made about Prince Charlie. It's been a long time; in today's world you could do a film that would bring his story to life.

  • @endora60 Aye I always wonder why Hollywood don't make one or others based on Scots history as there's lots of material to work with.

  • @endora60 but he was a total let down - such a drip! I grew up on these songs, but reading about him was a real disappointment. Have a look at the extracts on YouTube of Peter Watkins film Culloden.
