Uillean Pipes are haunting. Better instrumental choices exist for conveying other emotions, but for pure sorrow, aching longing, stubborn pride, and melancholy wonder, nothing beats the Uillean Pipes.
@revrbsj yeah well said. And I cannot describe how utterly beautiful I find this music Im sure well all hear it in Heaven if it exists. The pipes must be from Heaven...they aint of this earth thats for sure.
I have Irish blood, and I view the Irish and Scottish as cousins united by a common history of persecution from the English. But the two cultures are not exactly the same. For example, even though Scottish Gaelic (Gaidhlig) was derived from Irish Gaelic (Gaeilge), speakers of the two languages would have a hard time conversing. I think there are more Irish Gaelic speakers than any other kind. However, I am a big supporter of Celtic culture, Irish, Scottish, Welsh, Cornish, Bretons, whatever.
@guyfihi The Scots have nothing to do with Irish, the Irish are more to do with the Welsh than anybody else. It was the Irish who claimed to have suffered at the hands of the English, the Scots never did.
The truth is that England legally owned Ireland, Pope Adrian IV sold the island to England in return that they adopted Catholicism, the Irish were basically English people, Henry II wanted the Irish better assimilated with the English, and so Irish culture was airbrushed out of existence.
@guyfihi And there is no such thing as 'Irish blood', the only blood types are A, B, O and AB. Ireland is a place not a race. And that place is not in America and America is not in Ireland, in fact, they are worlds apart and completely different nations all together.
They aren't even in the same continent and are an entire ocean away.
@guyfihi Scots-Gáidhlig did not derive from Irish-Gaelige, they are both different languages that derived from Goidelic which was not Irish nor was it exclusive to Ireland, the term 'Gael' is a linguistic term only, not a people, hence anybody who spoke a Goidelic tongue was called a Gael back then regardless of where they came from.
Scots-Gáidhlig was supplanted by the Caledonian Pictish language (the early Scots), hence why it's a different language and is more P than Q related.
@guyfihi Celtic = Modern made up term first coined as 'Celtic' by the Welsh linguist Edward Lhuyd in 1707 who used the term to group old languages from across the British isles and parts of continental Europe, the term was heavily romanticised in the 1800s, then hi-jacked by Irish republicans in 1900s who used the term as a political tool to resist Britishness during the height of the Irish republican movement by re-defining it as an ethnic term instead of a linguistic term, hence it's fake.
@nimhrais I happen to love the man myself! My ancestors died for the cause of Scottish Freedom under the leadership of William Wallace! Aye! A great man indeed!
@nimhrais Yes, I'm very proud! The family can legitimately prove our clan lineage back to 1100 in Scotland. From 1300 at Lochindorb Castle and from there, at numerous locations throughout the northeast of Scotland. My heritage remains one of my most valuable possessions. It's a wonderful thing to know of their sacrifices and their role in Scottish history.
@smudge508 It all starts with research. If your family has a Scottish name, it may well be recorded in the "Registry of Tartans" which is available online. If you find it there, most often there is alot of information on that particular Clan and its origins. Give it a try, you never know what you may find. Good luck! I've been very lucky, my cousin, God rest his soul - spent 30 years tracing us back to Scotland and even met our family still there some years ago.
@revrbsj Well spoken!! To me, they dance on the ballad of our ancestors who made Ireland what it is today, of pain and strife, yet weaving from minor to major the goodness of the glas oilean, Eirinn.
My body be of the rock on Her shores,
My blood be of Her spring waters,
My skin of Her velvet moss,
My soul and spirit - bound to Her and those who walk the Emerald Isle.
roxcharlie. Sorry but the border never went South of the Tweed on any of the thirteen swaps of Berwick town between Scotland and England.
What you would have been quite correct in saying is that, before either Scotland or England existed as countries, it was pretty well the seat of power from Yorkshire direction up to pretty well the middle of what we now call Scotland. But who the heck cares, fantastic scenery, fantastic music.
There is a "New Scotland", its in Canada the province of "Nova Scotia"..... It has towns named "New Glasgow" and "Pictou". Area's known as "Caledonia"
A little bird told me recently the first Irish were not Scottish/Pictish, at all, at all, at all! Apparently, some ologists found ancient WELSH LINGO manuscripts up near Teer Connell in the north. So, yacky dah, everyone! Even so, I'm glad we are descended from a Celtic State. Or PRE-Celt to be more accurate. But where did the Pictish language and its speakers go? They left no forwarding address. If only the Scots could find such a manuscript. Pictland The Brave!
Believe it or not but I am the ONLY Irishman who has never visited Bonnie Scotland!!
It is, of course, our nearest neighbour and, culturally, it is our First Cousin. That's how I see it! There was always a lovely flow of traffic between the two cultures and we gave each other lovely presents - they gave us Lulu and we gave them Wee Daniel O'Donnell! Oh, gawd, let me outta here! By the way, the first Irish were Pictish people from Scotland/Pictland!!
My dear friends, I have travelled Scotland and I do recognize many of the pictures - places, but let me tell you, you have got the first picture wrong big time!!! It is Bamburgh castle and is located - as you may have guessed - in Bamburg - England. Nice pictures in your XD though. May be you should have included Kelso castle, Floors castle etc.

@thewindthatshakesbar Yeah, very, very technically, bagpipes are more of a category of instrument than a particular instrument, but the instrument that most people picture when you say "bagpipes" are Scottish bagpipes.
This exactly the opposite of OUR (Bulgarian) bagpipes and type of music. Yours is so calming and joyfull :) Ours is sad and intense. Which actually shows the difference in our two countries! Nontheless we are the same people ! We BULGARIANS have some CELTIC blood in our veins (most of the people don't know this), which also explains why we share almost the same ethnic musical traditions :) Look up "Serdi tribe" in wikipedia :) CHEERS :)
The pic with sheep and sea landscape really looks like a Sardinian panorama! I love Scotland and someday I'll visit this marvelous land. Alba and Sardigna gu brath!
Thanks for going thru so much work putting this delightful music/ video clip...you've blessed 2 us this morning already! My husband suffers mouth cancer, was very young. He's Scottish, lived in Scotland. He couldn't sleep, so during the night , researched this selection Enya's music= loves it.
He found the video you put together, sent links to others, so they too could enjoy! Never mind any ugly mean spirited criticisms! The devils the one worried about details! Thanks for blessing us!
@angryman2736 Cause I wanted to have a short title. I also could call it: Scotland and Scotland-like pictures of castles, meadows, hills and mountains in and in the near of Scotland accompanied by Enya with an Irish Song. But most of the people are not that fussy and just enjoy without controlling every picture.
@nimhrais and apart from any of that I live in Northumberland and for sure see myself closer to Scotland than the damn capital of this country...I wish they would move the Scottish border down to the Tyne.
@nimhrais But to be fair if you put in photos of English places and title them pictures of Scotland then if people are looking it is only a matter of time before someone says "that's not Scotland". Especially if people know that place well and Bamburgh is pretty well known. Maybe you should have just started with the Jedburgh Abbey one :-)
@nimhrais "But most of the people are not that fussy and just enjoy without controlling every picture" You'd think there would be enough photos of Scotland not to include English photos though! People from the locality are always going to notice and if they notice then they are going to point it out :-)
@angryman2736 well if you wanna get technical, Bamburgh castle used to be in 'Scotland' at one time or another when the borders were changed back and forth
@nimhrais True, but it was once a Briton (Celtic) fortress, along with Dun Ediyn (Edinburgh), Caer Gwent and many others before they were taken by invaders, so I'll not object.
@MrZygoticmynci We know, but the photo's in the video are of Scotland, and you can tell Plastic paddies wearing Scottish traditional dress uniforms and playing Scottish Highland bagpipes on St. Patrick's day has nothing to do with Ireland.
@truefalse :mrzigo has a point.These are Uilleann pipes(Irish)and the origional bagpipes were Irish Warpipes which were hijacked by the Scots,not that i mind as i like pipe music.For pipe music,check out Davy Spillane.Pure class.
@billyhunchback So when I see American's on a St. Patrick's day parade, they are dressed in Scottish outfits, playing Scottish tunes on Scottish instruments, waving Ireland's flag. Identity mix up here.
@truefalse Please learn your history on Saint Patrick before posting. St Patrick was born a Briton under Roman rule - in what is now known as Scotland. In his teens he was kidnapped and brought to Ireland as a slave by Niall of the Nine Hostages, a famous king of Ireland whose son Laoghaire was later to play a large part in Patrick's mission to convert Ireland to Christianity. He was born in Scotland, which is why a large part of the celt community embrace Scottish pipes and dress on the day.
@FrankenstoneMUSIC also the uilleann pipes are descended from the scottish pastoral pipes and sounded similar. In fact the first set of marked scottish pipes are union pipes the first type of pipes that became known as the irish uilleann pipes in 1905. Scottish makers like Robertson in the 1760s were making these pipes the same time as the first irish sets. The uilleann pipe was just as scottish as the irish claim the highland pipe as a tradition. Again both cultures enriched each other.
I woudnt say Ireland claims the highland pipe as a tradition. The Uillean Pipes especially in the west of Ireland, Kerry, Clare or Mayo is an integral part of Irelands national identity. You might see a big band in Dublin or a St Patrick day parade somewhere around the world use the highland pipe but I wouldnt say its deeply regarded in Ireland as an Irish tradition.
@capetown99 yes you can the GHB is part of the Irish trad they played a similar instrument. But the same can be said for the Uilleann pipes in scotland in fact the English could claim the trad as well as the first instruments were seen in england. It just like the GHB is an integral part of modern scotland and a modern identity, but both the GHB and UP were played in both countries before both became national symbols. Both can claim them and both have a right to use them nationalism aside
@itaLEGOLL Il me fait plaisir de te répondre en français même! Je suis Québecois d'origine Irlandaise et un peu écossaise... Le musique celte viens de l'Irlande, de l'Écosse, de Bretagne, du Pays de Galles et de Catalogne, j'en oublie sûrement... Ceci dit, il est normal que les musique traditionnelles de tous ces pays se ressemblent, puisqu'elles ont la même origine, plus spécialement l'Irlande et l'Écosse, puisque les écossais sont, en fait, venus d'Irlande. C'est à peu près ça. :)
@thewindthatshakesbar merci beaucoup pr la reponse, aah de la Bretagne aussi? c'est pour ça que ça ressemble tellement avec leur musique traditionelle... cette musique est tellement magique, épic!!
That first picture is of Bamburgh castle, which is in Bamburgh next to Seahouses and the Farne islands, and therefore, in England. I know the Calverts, who live there and maintain the castle, and I live 15 miles away from there, so technically not in Scotland, but 20 or so miles from the border.....
im not a scot me self but i love them scots and the irish persicuted and ravaged by the so called "noble" english but no warrior goes down so easily big respect to them all!
Jedes Wort währe zuviel Einfach nur Wunderbar .Komme aus der ehemaligen Ostzone.Hatte dann nach der Wende in Schottland Urlaub gemacht.und hatte erst da so richtig festgestellt,das die DDRbonzen mir mein halbes Leben geklaut hatten.
Mhic na galla..Now I feel incredibly homesick, I swear on my way back the moment I get out of the bloody airport I'm going to kneel and kiss the ground.
@CelticWizard113 Haha, considering I'm a Glasweigan it's highly improbable for us to complete a sentence without cursing.So no, it definitely doesn't mean ''oh my god'', more along the lines of ''son of a b****!!!'' as a frustrated exclamation:)
@CelticWizard113 Sister, that is.But many say you can't tell the Scots genders apart (especially after a little drinking) with all the cursing going on so I won't hold it against you:)

@truefalse :mrzigo has a point.These are Uilleann pipes(Irish)and the origional bagpipes were Irish Warpipes which were hijacked by the Scots,not that i mind as i like pipe music.For pipe music,check out Davy Spillane.Pure class.

@billyhunchback So when I see American's on a St. Patrick's day parade, they are dressed in Scottish outfits, playing Scottish tunes on Scottish instruments, waving Ireland's flag. Identity mix up here.

@truefalse Please learn your history on Saint Patrick before posting. St Patrick was born a Briton under Roman rule - in what is now known as Scotland. In his teens he was kidnapped and brought to Ireland as a slave by Niall of the Nine Hostages, a famous king of Ireland whose son Laoghaire was later to play a large part in Patrick's mission to convert Ireland to Christianity. He was born in Scotland, which is why a large part of the celt community embrace Scottish pipes and dress on the day.

@FrankenstoneMUSIC also the uilleann pipes are descended from the scottish pastoral pipes and sounded similar. In fact the first set of marked scottish pipes are union pipes the first type of pipes that became known as the irish uilleann pipes in 1905. Scottish makers like Robertson in the 1760s were making these pipes the same time as the first irish sets. The uilleann pipe was just as scottish as the irish claim the highland pipe as a tradition. Again both cultures enriched each other.

@seonidh
I woudnt say Ireland claims the highland pipe as a tradition. The Uillean Pipes especially in the west of Ireland, Kerry, Clare or Mayo is an integral part of Irelands national identity. You might see a big band in Dublin or a St Patrick day parade somewhere around the world use the highland pipe but I wouldnt say its deeply regarded in Ireland as an Irish tradition.

@capetown99 yes you can the GHB is part of the Irish trad they played a similar instrument. But the same can be said for the Uilleann pipes in scotland in fact the English could claim the trad as well as the first instruments were seen in england. It just like the GHB is an integral part of modern scotland and a modern identity, but both the GHB and UP were played in both countries before both became national symbols. Both can claim them and both have a right to use them nationalism aside

@itaLEGOLL Il me fait plaisir de te répondre en français même! Je suis Québecois d'origine Irlandaise et un peu écossaise... Le musique celte viens de l'Irlande, de l'Écosse, de Bretagne, du Pays de Galles et de Catalogne, j'en oublie sûrement... Ceci dit, il est normal que les musique traditionnelles de tous ces pays se ressemblent, puisqu'elles ont la même origine, plus spécialement l'Irlande et l'Écosse, puisque les écossais sont, en fait, venus d'Irlande. C'est à peu près ça. :)

That first picture is of Bamburgh castle, which is in Bamburgh next to Seahouses and the Farne islands, and therefore, in England. I know the Calverts, who live there and maintain the castle, and I live 15 miles away from there, so technically not in Scotland, but 20 or so miles from the border.....

Is there an overall message being sent through this song? It sounds a little depressing, but at the same time, happy and relaxed.
