Scotland Forever

Gersforme requested this tune and believe me it gave me an enormous amount of pleasure to record it. I spent from about 9-12 hours between the recording & mixing and I hope I've done it proud. Scotland forever is a wonderfully stirring song and it would make a superb Scottish national anthem.
If anyone has the lyrics handy, please pm them to me & I'll post them as well.
As always, feel free to ask for the MP3 file of this tune, and keep the requests coming, within reason PLEASE !

SCOTLAND FOREVER
Days are gone,
O' my land, my home
When our fathers fought to be free,
Now we have our say,
We will lead the way,
Once more O' Scotland forever.
Proud and brave,
O' our fathers gave,
For the right to think as we do,
And in freedom's name,
We would stand again,
Once more, O' Scotland forever.

High above o'er the land I love
Is the flag that is dearest to me,
Let the banners fly,
Neath a Scottish sky,
Once more o' Scotland forever.

Days are gone,
O' my land, my home.
But in memories still they remain,
So be proud to be,
In a land that's free,
Once more O' Scotland forever.

OK I'm getting sick of it.You lot have gone WAY OTT ! This is my channel and kindly keep political crap & OFF IT ! No more comments on racisim, who is Scottish who isn't & cut out the bad language ! THIS IS NOT AN OPEN DISCUSSION THREAD OK ? TOPIC CLOSED !

[QuietReckoning]

@graham1281 It's the Election. Still, Scottish politics are getting as noisy as Irish ones. (Republic, thankfully, we're nowhere near as bad as unionist ireland.)

It will pass when things are finally decided.

Thanks for the music. This is lovely and relaxing. I don't understand how people can get their dander up while listening to something as sedate as this.

[graham1281]

@scotsmaninusa Kilbirnie Ladeside beat Beith in the cup last week.The last time they did that was 77 when wee Sconie won it for them.I know they Garnock Valley.Its a bit like a desert for jobs.So you swapped one for another.Good luck to you out there.But things might change there soon.SNP got in around the time you left.With any luck they will get in again.If it can happen there it can happen anywhere.Labour had always been in before,even though they killed the industry there with the Torys.

@username1me yes we are American Scot's,please rember that our country is very young so we still have things passed down to us such as Clan pride and so much more.The key is to rember the U.S. is only 240 years old and we hold to our heritage still.be glad to know that you have family and kin world wide and us American Scot's wont be such a bother to ya ,Slan

[username1me]
