The conquerors from the south are coming but they'll have to face the wrath of the Highlanders. They may take our bagpipes, but they'll never take....our freedom!!

This music makes me feel proud of my celtic Heritage, which is curious since I'm Italian...
Well the Scottish music is bewitching no doubt, but since you're Italian you must feel proud of your own culture don't you?!!
The same feeling from Spain, my DNA analitycs told me.
Depending on what part of italy you come from, you may have gallic ancestry, which in fact gives you quite a bit of celtic heritage.
@@sillypotato53 it's Scottish *
@@calumcain2355 Well I meant in the sense of Celtic*, anyway I've fixed it😳😅
I was doing the dishes to this song. The dishwasher declared independence from the kitchen.
Lmao
I did the same.
HAHA
Good one, bro! xD
I just spat out my tea!
Fell asleep listening to this and woke up with a huge beard and a thirst for FREEDOM
THATS AWESOME!!!! 🤣🤣🤣🥰
💪 Definitely! 😎🔥
I would have to drink a many a drop of whiskey to fall alseep to this,but if you could, God bless you!

I'm from Iraq, and I would definitely listen to this music all day long!! I have always loved Celtic music, culture and the nature ,of course. My dream is to visit all theses beautiful countries and meet their amazing people! Love & Respect
My dream also 😊
Me tooo 🥺
Much love to you brother! Iraq - the cradle of civilization! ♥️♥️🏴🏴
Your part of the world gave us the bagpipes. To show our appreciation, we give you Scottish Highland pipes and pipers. Peace to you and love, our brothers and sisters in Iraq, birthplace of Abram.
You're always welcome in Scotland, don't go to england though, they don't like foreigners, we embrace them with open arms mo chara!
I am Japanese, but this
When you listen to the song, the story of a different world or medieval style fits perfectly.
It's so magnificent and exciting.

No, I didn't know at all. In the first place, you didn't know much about Celtic people and were you happy with Celtic music? I really liked this music, so I'm interested in this and I'll look into Celtic people and culture! .. And I never thought I could reply. I am not very good at English, but I wanted to communicate with various people. Thank you again for your reply.
@@レベ-g2b It's always great when a person appreciates a culture different from his/hers. I'm a Filipino myself and I think the Japanese and Celtic cultures are magnificent.

Thank you to everyone who responded!
I am happy to know the cultures of various countries! Culture has a lot of history, so you won't get tired of looking it up and watching videos! ..
In this way, it is one of the pleasures to interact with everyone! However, I still don't study English and rely on translations....w
Even so, I thought it was great to meet you all!
Thank you again!
Truth be told agile zero is right, japanese and celtic music is both magnificent in its own, now all we need is to mix them

Hello everyone! I am Tatar. From Russia. A descendant of the Bulgars and Khazars, living in the 4th-7th centuries on the territory of the Urals. I have been interested in Celtic culture and music since childhood. Celtic music is a symbol of strength and freedom for me. And your castles literally drive me crazy! I hope someday I will be able to visit your homeland to enjoy the beautiful nature and rich cultural heritage. It would also be nice to talk to all of you for real!
Hi! I'm Helena from Germany. A descendant of Germans. I just like the feeling this music gives me. And I like the soccer/football club Celtic Glasgow. Great club. But if you go to Scotland, maybe stop in Germany, we also have neat castles especially in Baden-Württemberg.
@@hello_world4859 Hello, Helena! Germany is also beautiful! I haven't been to Germany, but I really want to visit. I like the interesting history of your country, wonderful architecture, beautiful language and the Rammstein group 😀 I looked at photos on the Internet of castles in Baden-Württemberg - they are magnificent!
I became interested in football only this year, when my husband watched FIFA World Cup. Now I am waiting for the European Football Championship in 2024 - I will watch😉
@@Jabberwockyyyy Nice! I also will watch the EM but I'm afraid Germany won't be good. The game against Columbia was embarrassing. And I also like Rammstein, there was this time I had Sonne as my clocks wake up-sound.
@@Jabberwockyyyy th-cam.com/video/6ntOEkT6ggs/w-d-xo.html If you like football, you might like this. I'm a fan of FC St. Pauli and I like Celtic Glasgow via this friendship they sing about

Being of mostly Irish descent while having traveled all throughout Scotland & Ireland I can feel the sheer amazing power, poignancy & passion of this mighty tune at such deeply primal depths & to such a fearsome degree that I feel instantly & viscerally transmogrified when listening to it, as it makes me feel wonderfully elevated with this glorious exaltation while bringing me back centuries to a misty, violent & heroic past, one that I can still feel keenly & which calls to me with a beckoning insistence, that wild, blood roiling, battle scarred past made more vigorously immediate & sublimely palpable via this mesmerizing masterpiece, one that inspires endlessly. Love it!
Thus has that ancient Celtic warrior within been ferociously stirred & awakened, pulsing powerfully forth while rising inexorably, to such a degree that now I feel as my fiercely warlike ancestors once did, as inspired, proud & formidably prepared, with adrenaline pumping as my blood churns, primevally motivated as I am, out to prove my worth, mettle & combat prowess not only to my clan & people yet to those not to be born for centuries, seeking the approval of posterity as much as from those whom I'll be fighting & dying for.
That's how this music makes me feel, at one with a past steeped in battlefield glory, spectacular swordsmanship & honorable death. That is the power of music, & this timeless, atavistically moving, transcendent tune!
"You can fight for God, or country, or family, I do not care, so long as you fight!" - Robert the Bruce (Outlaw King)
That is realy cool to know that he said that. I am a direct decendant of one of his brothers.
Thank you for reminding us of that historical quote which is so rarely mentioned ! Timothy Wolfe
We Fight For God/s All High Holy Eternal. We fight for country and land and Freedom. And we fight for the glory of our Celtic Blessed Ancestors.
ERONN GOBRRRAAAAAAA!

Yup. Braveheart was not a very fair portrayal of Robert the Bruce - that man loved Scotland too. In the end William Wallace is the one that sacrificed his life though, as acknowledged by the Bruce in the movie also.

You need to watch the movie (Outlaw King), one of the few Netflix gems.
I am American, of Scottish and Irish decent. Very proud of my heritage, and my dream is to go to Scotland. Celtic music has always been my favorite! It's sings to my soul! Love the pipe and drum!💕
same here but I want to move to Ireland.
I am of partial Scottish ancestry, and all I can say is that there is nothing that stirs my soul like Celtic music and bagpipes.

At 3:31 When the song cannot be heard but only the sound of the swords and the horn, I imagine that the Celts are calling in reinforcements and at 3:41 when the music intensifies is the part when the other battalions came and charge to help.
A true masterpiece. I love it!

This song dosent just represent Scotland it represents all of the celts, Scotland,Ireland, Isle of Man, Wales, Cornwall and Brittany.
Luke Kilroy I have family from Scotland 🏴 Wales and Ireland myself as in history
Scotland isn’t even just celts, there were Britons, Scots, Norse, and (in the area I’m from) Picts. Celts were originally Germanic people anyway
If anyone’s at all interested, Pictish music has a much more raw almost caveman like sound to it, search for waulking songs on TH-cam to hear, it was mostly sung while women worked their chores
Luke Kilroy, a lot of people in the purely Celtic part of Britain don’t consider us English Celtic for ancient, bitter reasons but in fact on average our DNA is nearly three quarters Celtic among our whole population within the borders of England. The rest is Germanic/Scandinavian. Even my own DNA test says as much.
I’m Latino with 0 Scottish or whatever heritage, but this song makes me wanna take an axe and a shield and rush into an ancient battlefield.
I'M IRISH AND I'M PROUD OF IT! FIGHT FOR CELTIC PRIDE!

Brutal Beat ye don’t have to be Celtic to fight 👈😌👈

YEAH!!
FOR IRELAND
I have my own heritage to be proud of, land of Vikings, but there is something very unique to the Celtic sounds, and it fuels me when I need a little burst to get over that little hill!
You all do know the Celts defeated the Romans twice. Early in Roman history the European Celts stopped them and sent them back to Rome. Later The Romans had to build a wall across the top of England called Hadrians Wall to keep the Scots from attacking them.
Almost right mate. Absolutely nothing was discovered or has been discovered of the first legion that arrived only roman accounts that the legion was sent. Now its been a while since I read up on this so forgive thy memory. Now while historians agree a legion was sent. I think history becomes less known after that for all we know no legion returned so that could mean they were all lost at sea but very doubtful as it would have been a large fleet hugging the land so chances of them all being lost is very slim. Making the chances they never got out of Scotland higher but someone would have. The ships would of waited a while then gone but there would of been a small garrison or two in land camp and most certainly where they came to shore. So while its likely we did destroy a legion its unlikely we done every last man. But there is no record of anything returning I believe. So I suspect there when they got back to Rome they wiped the name hoping to wipe the shame.
Years later Hadrians wall was built but this is a different era now records dont show any large battles or anything like that at the wall to the best of my knowing however the records do show there was a power of trading going on. So what ever happened in all the years in between Rome obviously came back with a little more respect. I cant rember if its in the records or not but to Rome Scotland wasnt worth it. They had a few bases up here during that time too, Stranraer being one of them. So they knew the land and the resources we were trading and I guess they thought fuck it whats the need for another enemy just to capture a shit hole lol. Risk reward weighing up kinda thing.
More years later I think its widely believed the 9th legion haspania? something like that. but that usually the 2nd legion most folk think were done in were actually bred out according to the best theory anyway. The not so much the romans but more the auxilia who were actually from syria met local women and lived happily ever after as far as we know. But the few roman discoveries in the south ie England dont really show battle damage they show disrepair then people stealing the bricks and what not to make new shit. so some wealthy Romans did stay on here but others would have left hoping their service to Rome would make for promotions but at that time I believe that Romes days were numbered or atleast the writting was on the wall.
Great, innit?

I am a weird and complicated mix (many times over) of Middle Eastern, Slavic, many types of Southern European, and other random stuff, not one of them being anything Celtic, but there is something about Celtic music that speaks to me in a way that not much else does. I was lucky enough to visit Scotland a year and a half ago and I think one of the things that makes people there so friendly and welcoming is their music, it's medicine for the mind when the sun sets too early or when it wont stop raining. There is something about it that invigorates the human psyche, no matter what culture you come from.
If you are southern European, you may be partly Celtic. Celtic tribes started somewhere in southern Europe ages ago and migrated (fighting all the way) to England.
Well said!
@@helenclarke4735 The Celts left the Balkans for today's British Isles. They founded Belgrade and the Celts have nothing to do with the British.
@@ecuador3148 The Celts originated in Austria. Your statement that the Celts left the Balkans for the British Isles, but are not British does not make sense to me.
Heck, there was a celtic settlement in central Anatolia

Music like this awakens something within you. Some songs fire up my blood and pump me up for battle, even though I don't like violence. Other music is soothing and interestingly enough.. much of this music can be traced back to the days of Paganism and music like this sure does make you feel more connected to nature.

"Thousand upon thousand they came. Yet I held my ground sword in hand. Even as my comrades all lay dying around me, I still held my ground, only giving ground when I absolutely had to and making sure that for every meter of ground I gave, the enemy gave 6 lives in turn of their best men. For I was the King of The Highlands and none could stand against me. Decades of training in ways that were akin to a Greek Spartan had taught me every facet and trick in the book of war and fighting. Not one man would nor could bring me down. As the battle ground down, the enemy finally retreated and I collapsed. I awoke later in a bed and not a day later, I was made the true and just King of The Highlands."

I feel like a mountain emerges right below my feet with an invisible kingdom of dreams appearing out of nowhere offering sanctuary for every persecuted being and an unrestricted access to resources and knowledge to collaborate and build up an equal counterforce leading to reconciliation and a state of equilibrium which ultimately gets celebrated peacefully as the successful defiance of imminent destruction and protection of individual freedom. Have i gone crazy or just hit by a massive bolt of creativity bursting in my brain? Lovely how music evokes such imagination bringing the listener in a world where limitations fall beneath possibilities.
A worthy music for worthy adversaries
Much love.

+Koishi Komeiji America is too big to give up after one nuke. And if the capital fell, that doesn't mean that very many of the states would go with it. I can bet you almost with certainty that at least a quarter (definitely including Texas and probably most of the south) of the states would not surrender with the rest of the country. And that's all of the main government ever surrendered in the first place. The US would likely take more than 2 or 3 nukes before giving in. I guess you could say we are... patriotic.

I have Celtic blood in my veins and any form of Celtic music makes it stir it makes me feel that rush, every song tells a story. Every song I feel that Celtic pride in me. and by the gods I'm proud to have such heritage and roots.
Me, too. It speaks to the soul and the heart.
I don’t know why but music like this puts tears in my eyes. it’s just so mediaeval I love it.
Never been to Scotland but my mother's side was Clan Ramsay. So this music still stirs my soul for battle.

I'm of Irish (Viking) and German descent.
Although I am very proud of my heritage, there is something about Celtic music and bagpipes that reaches deep into my very soul.
@White Kinist Music
We Vikings must stick together.
There will come a time in the history of the world when we will be needed.
Absolutely friend and fellow Viking.
The world will need us much sooner than later and we must be remain alert and ready at all times.

I'm not even related to viking in any way but i feel the same way
Are you saying Irish = Viking?
Also why Kamikaze Yamamoto if you are Irish and German? Lol
Ireland was never part of the Norse era. Mainly were Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Iceland
Hon the scots respect from your Irish Celtic brothers ❤️❤️
I'm Italian, but when I listen to Scottish music I feel Scottish too. I don't know why, but it awakens something in me. It is magic. I was fascinated by it since I was a child.
Depending upon where you're from, you may well have Celic heitage. Mostly Northern Italy which used to be Cisalpine Gaul.
As a product of Eastern Massachusetts (Greater Boston, the 33rd County) the red blood of the ancient Irish Gael flows through me with power, passion, poignancy, poetry & this primeval pride, all upon hearing the proudly Scottish Highland sounds of this amazingly brilliant, beautifully evocative & pulse pounding musical piece. Just incredible! Words alone can't do it justice! I feel 30 years younger & wonderfully transcendent upon every listening, while my primal warrior sensibilities are invariably atavistically activated. Rousing to my ancestral fierceness. Love it!
Epic! Y'a captured the feelin' perfectly! Much love from Ireland.
irelaaaaand !!!! i'm from brittany
I always wondered why I always take a handle like the one I have here, which I have had for more than 30 years. And most of my other things I use always have "celtic" or such in it. Maybe because I am Scottish/Irish? Don't know, but when I was a very young girl, around 4 or 5-years-old, I use to dream of a time long ago in a ruined castle listening to people speak Gaelic. I asked one of the ladies what language we were speaking and she replied, "Gaelic". Of course I didn't know what that word even meant until I got a lot older. Strange how things come about to you in dreams. I lived on a small ranch with no outside influence because we had limited television then in the 60s, so I don't know what I can contribute those dreams to. I remember it so vividly and the castle and always wanted to go in search of it. Maybe some day.
Interesting story! Do you speak Gaelic now?! I think you'd enjoy some of my music on my channel! Let me know what you think when you get some time:)

I find that interesting. Maybe someone from the long-ago reaching out to you.

I don't know much about Celtic culture thus the music cannot make me think of anything Celtic. But what I do know is that the bagpipes, the tin whistles and violins all have certain magic in them. A piece made though these instruments takes me onto an adventure in a fantasy world (one with dragons, phoenixes, and magic). The next time I see the word "Celtic" I will think of the adventures I went through in these awesome pieces.
Yunpei Yang Well the Celts practiced a lot of magic and believed in those types of things so technically you are thinking of a bit of celtic culture.
The six regions widely considered Celtic nations are Brittany (Breizh), Cornwall (Kernow), Ireland (Éire), the Isle of Man (Mannin, or Ellan Vannin), Scotland (Alba), and Wales (Cymru).
Six Nations, One Soul!
As a Zimbabwean with strong Celtic Roots from the UK/Scotland, nothing stirs my spirit so much as listening to the songs of my ancestors. Deep love of the Celts and the magnificent beauty of Scotland and the rest of the UK is eternally in my blood.
Come home to the land of your ancestors it's time people ❤💯
So a Rhodesian?
@@theleader4620 You could say that but no, I don't really consider myself one. Rhodesia is in the past and long gone. It is the future I look to with great hope.
I am a white Zimbabwean ( white African ), an Anglo-Celtic Zimbabwean or as I prefer, a British Zimbabwean.
Praise God for the powerful music that Antti Martikainen shared! And praise God for working through the current technology to access it.
Yea instead of giving credit to the musician feel good about YOURSELF and praise god. Fuckin dick

***** Oh, OK.
(And please don't ever upvote your own comment ever again).
***** Why?
And I hope the self-upvote was ironic.
StopMinecraftVIOLENCE
It wasn't ironic. There's NOTHING wrong with liking your own comment, you do NOT have the right to dictate what people should do or not.
***** You're a sad little creature.
And more than likely an alt-account.
Excellent!!!! Greetings from Greece
To be more in touch with my Gaelic roots, I took up fencing and horseback riding as a teenager for a little while. Now I'm listening to mostly Gaelic battle music and writing a fantasy book!
THE CELTIC WARRIORS WILL ALWAYS PREVAIL EVEN IN DEATH! RISE MY BROTHER AND MARCH FORTH! FOR THE HIGHLANDS!
and are you in the highlands?
Hm... Culloden... Hm
Rwwwaaahhh!
Chill out “minecraftiangod”
All Europeans are of one small family. We are all Kelto-Teutonic. Our homelands, are those of the Northwest of Eurasia. We are all of the same good, creative blood. Nothing even compares to our history.
I just found out you were on Spotify, but started listening way back your stuff was first on TH-cam… So glad I can hear your songs on my favorite platform!
I love the highland music. I think it is in my blood. I found that my 3x great-grandfather, Robert Densmore Laird Sr, was a highlander so that must be where my love for the highlands and this music always came from. We really must have DNA recollection because you really do know and feel things that are familiar without even knowing those things- places or people.
i'm from morocco i really love Celtic music always touch my heart
Great music....takes me to another time and I want to stay there!!!
I'm of part Scottish heritage, and this music is like listening to electric bagpipes. Well done!
GIVE ME A SWORD AND SHIELD, NEVERMIND IL GO WITH FIST!

This IS the music of my firework in 2025
“Of all the small nations of this earth, perhaps only the ancient Greeks surpass the Scots in their contribution to mankind.” Winston Churchill
WOW.... A special grreting to you from.Cjhile ...I love this music... it's seems to me a strong calling to the war ...Long life to our Great Scotland...Thank for this excelent gift...
I was expecting a slow burn with strings and pipes but got ripped into my ancestry in an epic tone. Definitely not condemning! Thank you for this,
A beautiful picture for a beautiful piece of music
I may be a little obsessed with this song. And I may have just listened to it 10 times
Over an hour of nothing but this...?
Well, it's not that crazy... I did just listen to Steam Powered Giraffe's "Honeybee" all night... :P
This is seriously one of the best medieval/fantasy battle tracks.
I'm so glad that I found this searching 'Irish boss battle song'
I am Scottish and Native Cherokee . I feel connected to both of my heritage’s . And music like this makes me feel exactly how everyone else here is saying . Just something about it .
Proud to be a Scottish/ Native
As an American with Irish heritage this is the only kinda music that gets me all emotional and teary eyed, for some deep rooted spiritual/ancesteral reason
Awesome
It's because your country is very new and has no culture. No identity. So you yanks come here to discover your long lost roots and where you came from. Welcome
@@Sarah-no7lv
Besides the Independence/Freedom/Freedom of speech culture we have here in America. Yeah most of my roots are DEEPLY European but almost exclusively Irish/English. But I can say I get some spiritual vibes off of songs like this too. Hearing this is like a war song of freedom and independence for me. Not just as a nation but as a way of life.

This happens to me brother :) it’s a great feeling makes your body tremble
@@Sarah-no7lv No culture? No roots?
After over 200 years.. You claim we have no culture to call our own?
No music solely dedicated to our culture?
Try some classics like
Battle Hyme of The Republic
When Johnny Comes Marching Home
Or how about..
Oh I don't know...
ALL MODERN ROCK AND ROLL (Nashville-Tennesse says you're welcome for the Rock)
We do have a culture. Its called American culture.
Just as I would call Irish culture.. Well, Irish Culture.
@@classywolfie2270 Get em, Merica!!!
