@joelhowells Nice drama. Way to go over the top.
And let's put things in perspective: the USSR never declared war on the Allied Powers. Yes, indirectly they may have helped by selling natural resources (not donating them, as you imply) to Germany, but they were never directly at war with the UK and of course fought as allies with them from June 1941-conclusion of the war.
what is this tune? please tell me

The only reason it's played slower is because the speed he's doing it in video is hard to march to.

@Quaysidepiper - The original Highland Laddie would be played at a much slower pace, so that the troops could march to it. He's playing it fast here because of the dancers.

@ClassicalMonarchism Yes, I see, that's quite right
