This song is about the devastation of the fishing industry in Scotland because of EU imposed fishing quotas - truly dreadful - but great song. Thanks, Karen.
I wish to apologize as I never heard of her until I found this YouTube site. I by chance only found her work when searching for an old Celtic tune I heard on a CD called Celtic Moods, I really do like her voice, though the Gaelic sounds a bit harsh, but what do I know, I am a mid west American from MN of Irish Ancestry only, thanks for your work, excellent...
I saw Capercaillie in 1992 in Freiburg, Germany. What a great music and a wonderful voice !!!!!!!

me, yes homesick at times Applecross :( I do not miss the midges though.
Beautiful song. What a wonderful clear voice. All the photos too. I can almost smell the sea and bog myrtle and hear the cries of the curlews.

I am so happy to listen to Karen and to see her again in these vids
Al though I like all her songs but the gaelic ones have more feeling to me.
How ever this one is so special
Wishing her all the best

I'm not very religious but if there is a God then surely Scotland is his greatest creation and Karen Matheson is his best singing angel!
Great vid!

It is still more smooth and melodic than German, and this from another midwesterner in Kansas.
