Happy st Andrews day

[DerPanzerKommander]

@Genius83 You do realise where that quote is from?

[Genius83]

@DerPanzerKommander I do indeedy...from almost 700 years ago when things were still med evil. I just recently finished a stint working down in England. Enjoyed it as much as I do my work here in Glasgow. In fact the work I was doing and learning about I probably got more out of down in England than I would have got here in Scotland because the people doing the equivalent job here would have been too inept. Sad fact, but very true. England and its people are a fantastic bunch like us Scots!

[Genius83]

@DerPanzerKommander In addtion, I admit I'm not for independance, however I respect your opinion in that you do want it. Looking at independance as 'leaving the United Kingdom of Great Britain' is fine (even though I don't personally agree with it). However looking at independance as "breaking away from the English" is not only pathetic but it really isn't the kind of crap we need. We will continue to share this great island with them either way. This isn't 1320...its 2011 for goodness sake.

[MrHibby1875]

so close within touching distance from indipendance.. salmond all the way

[GekoRaider6229]

It's this kind of good music and wonerful pictures that makes you swell up with pride, and tears come to your eyes.

[Lanarkshirelass]

[RossM1995]

i disagree with coolcelt, scotland wouldn't be able to cope after so long under english rule, we will never be our own nation again unfortunately

[solidsnake670]

SCOTTISH ND PROUD!!

[mykenzi4221]

[debbierobbs]

[SaintMathaeus]

This is such a great song.Who originally sang this song, I mean who wrote it? Greetz

[fingal42]

Dougie MacLean... I prefer his version though.

[SaintMathaeus]

Hey thank you...

[semperfijoe92]

what the fuck is with the picture of the communist murderer at the end????

[NSResponder]

That's the guy who bravely shot unarmed prisoners in Cuba, isn't it?

If he hadn't gotten lucky with that one photo, he wouldn't be remembered any more than any other third-rate thug from the 20th century.

-jcr

[LinnTractorNut]

Really nice right up until the chez guevera pic at the end, what does a cold blooded communist terrorist have to do with anything good?

[MovieMaker9123]

I don't know about you but im proud to be scottish!

[weespotineurope]

Jacobites! Rule Brittania

[solas2009]

cool version

[DerPanzerKommander]

as long as but a hundred of us remain alive, never will we on any conditions be brought under English rule. It is in truth not for glory, nor riches, nor honours that we are fighting, but for freedom -- for that alone, which no honest man gives up but with life itself.

[katasabra]

Part of the Declaration of Abroath - a stirring, powerful document then, and now.

[coolcelt]

Pity the Clan Chiefs didnt agree in 1707 and "bought and sold Scotland" for English gold. We'll be our own country again, but dont forget the men who sold the country for money and land.

[Genius83]

@DerPanzerKommander As far as I'm aware we haven't been under 'English rule' for quite some time. We work WITH England and Wales. I know in my work I do anyway last time I checked.

@darveldan1 Thank you for uploading - love this version of the song :-D

[amorevolousy]

Freedom for Scotland will one day be different from, the rest of the world, it will be done freely without bloodshed.

The world might stay the same, but i'm hoping my countrymen and women can move on from the past.

Scotland, has changed. Our population has finally steadied itself, we're multi everything nowadays. To be Scottish you don't have to be born here, just know what it is to gaze out over the beautiful country and get the feeling- that one feeling everywhere else lacks...

peace

[markoj34]

well said

[parksywarrior]

I am so proud of being scottish. I am the girl that gets wet at wimbledon hoping for a scottish victory, the one thats cold and wet every time we beat some team we shouldnt and the one that went to murrayfield this year and sent them homewards. i am not a fairweather fan. I am scottish and proud. xx

[nozone111]

More people probably think this way than you can imagine :)

[wiggybeee]

We are all jock Tamson,s bairns. IE all gods kids. Live and let Live! There are too many sabre rattlers in this place.Thats our problem!.!.

[mspormsd]

The Scottish people deserve the right to vote on Independence. PEOPLE OF SCOTLAND, STAND FOR YOUR RIGHT TO A REFERENDUM ON INDEPENDENCE! INDEPENDENCE 2010! EVERY MAN, WOMAN AND CHILD HAS THEIR PART TO PLAY IN THE REVOLUTION! AGAINST OPPRESSION AND DISCRIMINATION THE PEOPLE WILL HAVE THE FINAL SAY- THAT OF VICTORY! YOU CAN CREATE A NORTH/SOUTH DIVIDE, BUT YOU CAN'T BREAK THE MINDS AND INTEGRITY OF THE PEOPLE!

[celticgerard]

ur 100% right i love the scots hate the fuckin english for what theyve put alot of countries through love the song too

[thistlewarrior]

I'm a proud Scottish nationalist.

However I would argue not to hate the English because its a fast way to becoming as bad as they are.

Pity them instead, they are devoid of a decent culture to call their own so they attack everyone else's.

Most Engurlanders are just ignorant, its the so called 'Scots' (quislings) who run their country down that I hate.

Anyway dont want to turn this good vid into a political rant...but..

Saor Alba, Alba gu bragh agus Erin gu bragh!

[boredreiver]

"Anyway dont want to turn this good vid into a political rant" - well you've failed in that wish.

[thistlewarrior]

That was tongue-in-cheek humour! Sorry if has to be explained to some!

[boredreiver]

You hide your humour well.

[thistlewarrior]

Not as well as you hide your intellect.

Of course it was a political rant!

[boredreiver]

And it was the politics of xenephobia, espoused brilliantly.

[thistlewarrior]

Tell me then, whats xenophobic about telling someone NOT to hate another country???

[SUSIE9008]

beautiful song , dont see how these people are going on about a foriegn monarch when they comment about this song , very strange , scotlands development has been hindered by that so called union , you are either scottish or not , cant call your self a true scot if you claim to be a brit , waken up scotland

[seonidh]

Well said Susie, the Scottish king James sold us down the river and went to England. He only came back here twice in the rest of his reign! If he were a scot he should have made the capital of the UK Edinburgh, but he didn't even do that. bought and sold for English gold!

[howdofolks]

FUCK THE UNION AND UP CALEDONIA

[athenryguy]

who sings this song?

[matt18731987]

mon the scotland

MON THE GREAT BRITAIN too

long live the queen

[mspormsd]

You are either pro-nationalist or anti-nationalist, you cant be both!

[ali1745]

mon the scots i love my country

[jimbobmcswiggan]

SCOTLAND FOR INDEPENDENCE!!

We dont realise how rich our country is. Change is fast approaching. We dont need a union. Never have needed it.

[bailey0071]

Ireland will Gladly support Scotland on its journey for independence And would Gladly accept Scotlands support for a United Ireland. Let us Celts stick together! And your right! Change is fast approaching! Tiocfaidh ar la!!! (our day will come)

[seonidh]

Well said bailey we've had enough of this union.

Soar Alba agus Ereinn Mo Chara

[calster123]

@jimbobmcswiggan I AGREE WE DONT NEED A YUNION WE NEED A SUICIDE BOMBER LOL EPICNESS LOL O.J

[garethella]

@jimbobmcswiggan ,SHITE.

[abqaiqanimal]

MY BELOVED CALEDONIA

thank you for posting it

[purplewings123]

Beautiful sentiments and country.

[thebrit12345]

Im british and both flower of scotland and this song stir my emotions.

[paul1916]

Brit - road oot - Scotland will be a nation once again.

[howdofolks]

totally agree , long live scotland , end the so called union

[martincelticmccaff]

no way should scotland replace flower of scotland with any song

[Police1998]

Absolutely superb. Gets the hairs standing on the back of your neck with pride. Fabulous song for a fabulous country. No wonder we are proud of our country with pics like this. C'mon the Scotland

[AspiePride]

this song would be great national anthem any thought's scots?

[maxriddles]

Nah, to me it's about those who joined the talent drain to London, had enough, and wanted home! Some of us decline the urge to leave in the first place and do well enough in Glasgow & Edinburgh. PS. While I'm a proud scot I'm also a proud brit.

[AspiePride]

independence is something you don't want then

[maxriddles]

The time for that passed a long time ago, I fear for Scotland's future, peace, and prosperity should it happen now. It could ruin our country for generations. My opinion only, though shared by many yet disputed by many as well.

[AspiePride]

considering the terrible social legacy of union and the burden of high corporation rates of the bank of England i don't thing we could be any worse off than what we are now. If we want a true social democracy where we have low corporation tax so we can match all other small european nations in GDP and a better social policey independence is the only option thats the very short reason why i want independence

[woosp]

I agree, if the country is goin to get fucked up by politcs let them fuck it up in scotland, its about a sense of identity more than anything. i would rather complain about a scottish government than an english one that speaks for the whole UK. As for the london based media....

[santiano42]

I've always thought it should be!! And to maxriddles, I'm a staunch supporter of the union, this song just says "I miss Scotland, I'm going home!" Flower of Scotland says "England sucks"

UP THE UNION AND UP CALEDONIA!

and AspiePride remember a scot founded the bank of England, so all that's down to us

Just listen and enjoy!!!

[AspiePride]

Take you have never listen to scots wae hae then?. It's ppl like you thats holding scotland back.

Sorry but plz and have some balls and vote for independence. Thank you.

[howdofolks]

totally 100 percent agree , fantastic comment

[mspormsd]

You are either a Pro-Nationalist or an anti-nationalist, you cant be both!

[mspormsd]

You can be a pro-nationalist or anti-nationalist, you cant be both! Down with the illegal union! Let the people decide on Independence. REFERENDUM NOW! INDEPENDENCE 2010!

[mounthomer]

I love this song.

Wonderfull pictures

[darveldan1]

Thanks

[dst1967]
