who cares guys! stop thinking so much! this song is playing on emotions and if you don`t want your emotions played upon in the first place don`t listen to it! It is an incredible song and I for one think the Scottish won a great deal more battles than they are given credit for because as we all know the victor, in the end, writes the history books we all learned from... Was Montrose there? nope.. but who is to say the song is referring to only one time period? Burns was creative..he gets respect

@pawpawbear02 so you like being dictated to by england

Forget the mangled history and enjoy the song. These boys are true artists. I was listening to the Ian Campbell version of "Baron O'Brackley" (superb) based on a real incident and subsequently found it was based on 2 incidents 80 years apart and the wife was respectably married to a Dr a few years later! So please enjoy it as a cracking song and leave the history lessons to other sites.

I also think that we need to remain a united nation, but all this is a song about a battle long long ago, of whom many many great men died for nowt but lead us to unite, against oppression which was the formation of the UNITED KINGDOM.

@pawnbrocker00 plenty pro British videos my channel,because I,m BRITISH AND PROUD,this sort of guff breeds anti English sentiment as you,ve just proved,any spelling mistakes in that bawbag.

[Pawnbroker00]

@theneil100 you have about a million pro-england videos, regularly put rubbish in video comments, and cant write sentences or spell properly. Nice! I'm not going to argue with your comment because i know you will just make a shit roll. A good song is a good song, even if you think it is rubbish.

[theneil100]

Jacobite propaganda,end of story,doesn,t matter if it,s a tune or not,the entire lyrics are a lie,and therefore makes the song something that the scots are good at,avoiding reality.

@pipes0987 There needs to be a way to like a comment more than once.

@walkie311 Honestly, and with an open mind, they are just awful awful soldiers, braver here than in Iraq by a little but train train train and they still just hold the AK up over their head, look the other way and shoot in the air everytime we get into it for real. I would trade them all for 3 Argyll's and a drunk Marine.
