My husband passed away in March 2023, he was a massive Hibs fan, he loved Hibs, his beer then me. This is for you Stevie. Love and miss you every day. Wait for me in the sky starman. 🙏
From a Celtic fan - that would bring tears to a glass eye. Football is all about dreaming and emotion and that has to be the most emotional rendition of a song football has ever seen - born of dream that after a hundred odd years, the HIbs might lift the Scottish Cup again.
My old man was a Celtic fan he had to stop watching matches on doctors advice, smart arse used the radio , he would have loved to see that tho , hail hail all the best Bhoys
From a Glasgow rangers supporter I have to admit this is the best football anthem in the world. My uncle was a lifelong supporter of Hibernian and he had his ashes scattered on the grass at Easter road. I admit I sing this with all my heart
From a Rangers fan, almost worth losing that day. Best football anthem ever. Well done Hibees and well done the Proclaimers. As a Scot many miles from home thanks for making me homesick and proud in equal measure.
Celtic fan meself. Checking in on this comment to say kudos for appreciating it under the circumstance. Scottish Football fans [including of that team you confess to follow] are as passionate as you get and have songs, lots and lots more than most teams around the globe. This came about because of fans being held back from leaving the stadium to keep them apart and 'prevent trouble'. As soon as this started playing, any Scottish football fan would know that was the likely outcome. I'd be interested to know how that hit the yellow vested audience ... How could that not be a lifetime memory, the acoustics of that situation would be awesome surely ? These fans were ambassadors for Scottish football that day without intention and entirely unrehearsed.
Same here, as Johnny Cash said I've been everywhere man but this takes it hands down inside out upside down and any way you wanna look at it, this is the most passionate amazing crowd scene I've seen in 50 years too. 💙💙✌⚽️
I can't be the only man well into his 60s who burst into tears watching and especially listening, to the fans sing this. Absolutely touches the very soul of us.
Spurs fan here as well, and I return to these clips every once in a while. The thing is, I've liked the Proclaimers from the start, and this has beem my fave song by them. I knew they were Hibs fans, but it was only maybe 10 years ago that I realised this was a club anthem.
I knew only one Hibs fan whilst growing up in South Africa, and this rendition epitomises the love that he had for his team. He never lived to see this day. RIP Stuart Cameron.
Celtic fan who was in an Irish pub that day and I've never seen so many grown men cry it's what football is all about sheer passion for your club something money can't buy
I'm from Finland, and didn't know much about Hibs, but I'm a huge fan of Proclaimers since early´80s. First time I heard the name Leith was when i bougt the brand new album just when it was released. This clip is just fantastic, I'm truly moved. the passion and joy just captures you. this is what football is really about. every friend of football in the world should see this.
I'm a Leeds United fan, south of the border, proud Yorkshire man. This is truly magical, this is the ultimate in passion and emotion, the glory that we football fans dream of. The man uniteds, the chelseas, the rangers, the celtics, they can have their 20 premier league titles, their 30 FA cups, all bought and paid for with cash. This is absolutely brilliant. I'm well chuffed for all you Hibs fans. A beautiful song, a great anthem that epitomises your love for your team. I'm moved!! Love it!!!
+Terra Nova I agree, as a Celtic fan this brought tears to my eyes , I was happy for Hibs and my dad whose a Hibs fan as it would have been a special day for him and his family
+Terra Nova I am a Celtic Fan... but I love this... yes.. this is what football should be about... and the fact they beat Rangers... just makes it sweeter :)
precisely mate all of those clubs who buy their way to success will never know the feeling that i felt that day as a hibs fan born and bread watched them home and away since i was 3-4 i am 41 now i have suffered more pain watching hibs than i care to remember ,, standing in that crowd singing sunshine on leith after watching our captain score an injury time winner to lift the scottish cup after 114 years and to beat the forces of evil from ibrox makes it even sweeter !!! is a feeling that will live with me forever !!! thanks terra , hope to see leeds utd on the up soon too .
I'm a Rangers fan and today a good lad lost his life to cancer, a fellow adidas fan and a massive Hibs & Man Utd fan, gone too soon, R.I.P Eddie McCabe, a gentleman to the end.
I'm a Chelsea fan ,I come here all the time and always shed a tear at the sheer beauty ,Nothing says more about what it is to love your club through all the hard times for that 1 day in the sunshine like this moment .Thank you Hibs on behalf of all fans around the World
Chelsea fan here too. Been going to the Bridge since 1967 and barring a handful, I haven't missed a home game since. Had a season in the West Lower now since it opened. I knew nothing about this song until I saw this pop in my suggestions. Talk about get you right in the pump and Dover. Cried for the first time in more than 60 years since my dad got killed. I ain't ashamed to say that this is beautiful. Like you said True, “Nothing says more about what it is to love your club through all the hard times...” Bit like now. Them Hibees fans that were there that day, unashamedly singing out loud and proud, an outpouring of over 100 years of hurt, like I said, I cried bucket.
@@hugohackenbush1554 same as me northstand since the 70s. But this says everything. Especially about us in 80s going up and down but the best fans in the world then. Always had a soft spot for hibs
Im a shamrock rovers fan over here in dublin and i have to say that is the greatest football anthem i ever heard gives me goosebumps everytime hats of to you hibs fans and to the proclaimers for writing a classic god bless you all 💚🇮🇪☘🍀✌
I’ve got to agree with you here, this song is the bast. The Proclaimers must be soo proud. Who wouldn’t listening to these fans. The passion& emotion of Scottish fans cannot be beaten. I’m so proud to be Scottish 🏴.
Derby County Fan. Has to go down as the most spine chilling moment at a football ground ever.. Watched this loads of times. To think the Proclaimers happened to have written the perfect song in the era when Hibs would win the cup after 114 year wait and 10 previous fails as losing finalists makes it all the more poignant. The perfect game taking the lead, going 2 - 1 down and rallying to get the late winner. Goosebumps stuff. The sun shone on the crowd too. Just perfect. Does make me smile though. All the rivalry with the 'Us English' and the people of your great nation end up fighting with each other. Who is the enemy anyway? Time to put all that division to bed, unite and embrace the humanity of this joyous experience. I bet the Rangers fans who have seen this since, wish they'd have stuck around and joined in the incredible wall of sound.
@@any1younger You pathetic nunce. This gentleman praised how brilliant these fans are and just because he's a LIVERPOOL!!! fan, you have to make that comment. Most LIVERPOOL fans were disgusted of the actions at Heysel. I suppose you'll say that we were the ones that caused the 96 beautiful human beings to die at Hillsborough. If you can't say anything nice you can go to HELL!!!!!! I'm sick of opposing fans bringing up our past. It's the greatest football club on the planet and I wouldn't wish hatred on any other club . EXCEPT FOR MAN.U. LOL.
@@any1younger Wet behind the ears fool. I'm 65 years old. Why does ever Liverpool hating fan, have to bring up the past? Simon's comment was to praise the Hibs fans and then you make that asinine comment about Heysel. That's why I made that comment. GET A LIFE!!!!! you plank.
Here I am again, end of 2019, with a lump in my throat and a tear in my eye. Beautiful, thanks Hibs fans for showing the rest of the world the passion that true football supporters have.
Massive respect from a Mancunian Man United fan, I’ve watched this a few times and keep coming back to it every now and then, absolutely spine tingling. For those who were there and joined in it must have been one of the best 5 minutes of their life.
I'm a Celtic fan and this still brings a tear to my eye. Not just the circumstances and the opposition but just how it must have felt to do it after so long
As Roma fan here, born in Rome and always lived here... i completely fell in love with Hibs after reading Irvine Welsh’s books. So many similarities with As Roma+ hibs anthem is the best
From a Rangers fan, true respect to the passion and commitment of the Hibs fans. What an amazing rendition of Sunshine of Leith. Really stirring stuff. Well done on the victory.
Took the kids away to Edinburgh for my 50th birthday and stayed in leith and what a wonderful place on the water,unforgettable memories for myself,josh,hollie and Reece xx
Brought more than a tear to my eyes, I have no interest in football, but I do have interest in peoples passion for what they live and stand for, this is pure passion and magical Love it..
Climbed Arthur's seat this August. Got to top, saw the Hibs Ground and sang 'Sunshine on Leith'. A special moment for me- my wife and daughter thought I was mad. It's just one of those things which I wanted to do. I am an Aston Villa fan from England! I watched the Villa lift the League trophy in 1981 and the European Cup in 1982. Football is football and respect is respect. God bless the brilliant Hibs fans and The Proclaimers. I forgot to buy a Hibs scarf when I was in Edinburgh. I want to buy a Hibs 'Sunshine on Leith' one for myself for my Birthday. Respect from Villa to Hibs. (John)
Lovely message. My pal is a villa fan and i helped him become a Hibby when up here. And a nice wee link in that the great Des Bremner transferred from the Hibs and help the Villa win the European Cup. fantastic player.
Apologies I’m an Englishman but absolutely LOVE the Proclaimers. This is my favourite song of theirs. You Hibs fans smashed it out of the park with that rendition. You made this chap well up 👏👏👏👏👏 Hibs fans.
Dont apologise for being an englishman brother. I'm Irish we don't apologise for being Irish, Scots shouldn't ... blah blah. It's about being a decent human being my friend.
Arsenal fan here, absolutely spectacular from you hibs supporters, now that’s passion and a half!! Your team must have had shivers down their spines hearing you guys and girls belting that out, all supports should have that passion and emotion for their team so credit to you! 🙏🏻
I’m a proud Yorkshireman, but this has brought a tear to my eye. I only really came across the song the other week, but it’s already one of my all time favourites, and this rendition is spine tingling.
A few hundred police listening to the hibs fans singing their heart out. This is a thing of beauty and Scottish football should be proud. You may be wee hibees, but you're oor wee hibees, and we love you!
The most emotional song ever heard at a football match. Have waited so long to win the scottish cup, you can hear 100years of relief and joy in the singing of this song. A match that hibs fans will never forget. Just wish that l was a hibs fan on that day.
I'm a Celtic fan, this is unreal, I can not stop watching this video, my uncle has just passed away, and this brings a tear to my eye, much love to the hibs 😍 hail hail Neil Lennon.
I'm English and proud but I love the passion in which this was performed. You people did your club and city proud and I read people have waited years to have this moment. You guys never wasted it. Superb.
As a Leicester season ticket holder for 40 years (and a left footer) this is the best ever terrace anthem I have ever heard. Tear to my eye, always love The Hibbies. Total respect brothers, B.S.
I was lucky to be there because my Scottish friends Billy, Jack and John made it possible for my friend Chris and me to be part of this awesome afternoon at Hampden. We're Germans supporting our teams from Leverkusen and Dusseldorf but we'll never forget THAT SPECIAL AFTERNOON in Glasgow in May 2016. Glory to the Hibees!!!
It's moments like this that football fans that have had their hearts broken on a regular basis over the years live for. Great anthem. Respect from a Northampton Town fan.
Truely amazing love this song so much you guys obviously do I'd of been emotional wreck if I was in the stands I'm a villa fan and at times it gets specail like this in the holte end it makes football shine in it's own way tbh..ps loving john McGinn he is what we have missed for years
I played professional football in the 70's and, now in my sixties, find it difficult to recapture the enthusiasm and sheer love of the game that I had in my innocent youth. This rendition reminds me of why I love football so much and of all the highs and lows that this magical game still brings. Moving beyond belief!
K M Ha Ha. I thought, coming from a Celtic Bhoy, what i had written wasn’t bad. But, your right. The Hibees will be admired world wide for that beautiful day👍 Respect✌️
for all those that don't get football and think its just some blokes kicking a ball and rolling about on the floor about this encapsulates it perfectly. haunting and inspiring....
My team, Šibenik in Croatia, was relegated this weekend from first tier. But on Wednesday we play Cup finale, for our first trophy ever. We hope for a moment like this. Wish us luck.
im a leeds fan. and quite a fanatic for leeds.but i defy any fan of any club in any league in the the world to produce such a beautiful harmonic and a magnificent moving joy to watch and listen as this.congratulations hibs.
HIBS FANS - YOU JUST CLAIMED THE BEST EVER TERRACE CHANT. I am in tears 😭. As a true Celtic fan I’ve witnessed many a passionate time on the terrace. BUT this is fuckin awesome. And for all the comments were fathers and past fathers who witnessed this it will be a cherished moment. 🏆. Just digest the performance, the day, even the sunshine ☀️ and last of all true PASSION. Well done Hibees. 🇳🇬

Coming from a Celtic fan this is an atmosphere a would pay to be amongst , makes every hair on your body stand up couldn't tell you how many times I've watched this🍀 hope to see youse next season lads❤️
Incredible! I'm a Villa fan and I was so moved by this rendition of the Proclaimers' song that I had tears streaming down my cheeks. Football supporters are amazing and these Hibernian fans have absolutely made this song their own. Sheer brilliance! Charlie and Craig Reid, the twin brothers who front the band and are staunch Hibs fans must be so proud that their creation has become the club's anthem and must be elated every time they hear the crowd sing it. Absolutely incredible!
canadian here.never watched a soccer game in my life,but i understand the emotion here.i feel it even though its not mine.the same way gerry and the pacemakers,youll never walk alone makes me emotional the vid of everyday people singing....aw man!
In the middle of Covid-19, missing football, and crowds, and the pure joy that this video conjures up. Well done Hibbees, you’ve moved an old Forest fan to tears!
Overwhelming. This here and Irish fans singing "Fields of Athenry" on Euro 2012 against Spain, two greatest moments in a modern football. Greetings from Serbia from Partizan Belgrade fan!
Janet l remember my brother was so happy and proud that day,he was a hibs supporter all his life,I'm so glad he was alive to see hibs win the cup,sadly he died of cancer in 2o17 I've got his t shirts and scarfs on his bed and a ball signed by all the hibs player's,in memory of James rip sweet brother. xxxxxx
Janet, God bless your brother, maybe it's cup final day every day in Heaven ? Wudn't that be something 👍 RIP James, never met you, never knew you, but you sounded like a real special man, who knows, maybe Rotherham United have their own team up there, and what could be wrong with a ding dong Scotland v England game with all the passion of our supporters who have gone before us ! My late friend was a SWFC fan, and wud drive up and down the country, spina bifida be damned, and i wud luv pushing her thru foreign streets, I hope we can all meet up one day, sweet dreams and a cracking game of footy for all who went too soon x
I'm a Swansea City fan and they're the only team I'll ever support but whenever I see this and hear the fans belting out this beautiful song, I became a Hibs fan for four and a half minutes. This sums up everything I love about sport, everything I love about music and everything I love about being a fan and truly loving something. Wonderful, just wonderful.
I just watched this again and remembered the great day in May when I stood in my flat in London watching the TV and roaring this at the top of my voice with tears streaming down my face. You need to to be a Hibee to fully understand the passion and the excitement is there for all to see
As a Rangers fan, my heart WAS broken that day, but living in Edinburgh at the time, hearing possibly the greatest rendition of a song at any match, and seeing what it meant to Hibs fans, thank you for drying my tears a bit with that 🍻
Back again, listening to the most wonderful football fans tune I've ever heard in my 51 years on this planet. I love the villa with all my heart till my last dying breath, I love football and grew up with heroes. Hibs are my second team forever.
Every time I watch this, it warms my heart so much. I keep coming back to it time and again and it never fails to put a smile on my face. The most amazing fan singalong of all time. For those there, it must have been spine tingling.
Bumped into an old schoolmate of mine and it turned out he's a mounted copper now. Asked him if he was at the Cup Final and he said he was the first horse on. Didn't mention that one of my mates was on the pitch. Gutted I wasn't there myself. Was at the previous 9 Hibs Scottish and League Cup finals, but was working, though got finished in time to catch it in the pub at least At least the other most famous "Sunshine on Leith" rendition, at the 2007 League Cup Final had the extra bonus of being on my birthday and I was there though seem to remember it being several degrees colder.
Roared when the winner went in like it was my own team. I stood at Hampden in tears when my team - Motherwell - won the Cup 25yrs ago, and we still talk about it. A huge WELL DONE from Lanarkshire. Enjoy and celebrate long and hard.
I did my time in the Old Dart in the mid 70s and became a 'Spurs supporter through connections with the family of a Spurs' Great. The chanting and singing facinated me. We don't do that back home, well not in Australian Rules anyway. Back then it was only West Ham that had a song, Blowing bubbles. The rest had the same chants, just a few different words. I've paid little attention to soccer since 1977 when I returned. I stumbled across this video on youtube earlier this year. 2016 was a remarkable year for underdogs. My Aus Rules team, Bulldogs, won its second Premiership and first in 62 years, in 2016. The emotion of that day was unforgettable. Underdogs won in AFL and NRL in Aus; Leicester in the EPL; Ll...something or other in Wales; Chicago Cubs in US Basebasll, some team called Van something or other in US basketball; Portugal in Europe. Leaving aside Trump and Brexit, the greatest was Hibs. It's ripe for a book.
to the 201 people who gave this the thumbs down,i sincerely hope at some point in your life you experienced even half the joy i felt standing behind the goals, in that moment singing sunshine on Leith,as a true Leither having watched a team i and all my family members support and always have supported all the way back to my Irish great grandparents who had moved "little Ireland (the Grassmarket in Edinburgh)and followed Hibernian football club from day one. won the scottish cup,a cup that we had not won in 114 years and had almost accepted we would not ,no sorry could not win!! in the bright sunshine some 26,000 members of the hibs quire serenade 500 police Scotland cuntstubbles,the broken goalposts and dug up pitch a reminder of the 10 minute period when the Hibernian support had relieved police Scotland of their control of law and order and let them know after waiting 114 to witness an event that we never really believed we would witness and remembered our family members and friends we had watched hibs with over the years, who were no longer with us, i personally felt my grandad Francis and mates Mikey and James among others joining in the chorus from heaven... while the chief puts sunshine on Leith...thanks for the thumbs down boys, the ggtth that followed was a belter tae!
I'm a fanatical Rangers fan, who lived in Edinburgh for 20 years. I wasn't happy with the end result, but I'm so happy for Hibs. My best friend in Edinburgh was Mike Conner, who I used to regularly support the Hibs with.....tragically he died in 1999. This IS one of the best tracks I've ever heard, and I'd like to dedicate it to MIKE, who has a BRICK in the Hibs Stadium wall. Robin Topping 13th Sep 2018
Amazing! Why has it taken me nearly 3 years to witness this? All the negative news was Rangers fans invading the pitch after their loss to fight the Hibs fans who were celebrating (but the Rangers fans did it to protect their players of course). This rendition of Sunshine on Leith should have been the main news of the day! Respect to the Hibs fans. Fantastic!
Words can’t describe the feeling of being at this special once in a lifetime event. The supporters that went before us, who lived in hope of one day seeing their team lift the cup but never did. We all sung our hearts out that day for them! #GGTTH A wee special mention for my kid brother Jamie, unfortunately this was to be his final of final matches. R.I.P brother, until we meet again. #Myheartwasbroken GGTTH
114 years. That’s the history never to be repeated. You can’t buy this emotion. You either feel it or you don’t. You need to have lived it. There’s no fake’s amongst us. We never chose to hunt glory by choosing a team that wins the league every year. The team chooses you because it’s engrained in who you are and were your from. Every single person who reads this will identify with what I’ve said with their own team. I hope you can all one day feel the same emotion as we did that brilliant day in 2016. #GGTTH
As a Bluenose the result was a sore one however reading your comment puts life firmly back into perspective. Really sorry to read about your kid brother. I am sure he enjoyed the day and will be reliving it on repeat up the stairs.
I'm Aussie, but folks are from Leith. I went back a few years ago and experienced the boys singing this amazing song. I'm a big quiet guy but the best tears I ever shed was during this. Thank you boys.
This is an emotional song man. Got to be the best out there on the terraces in whole of UK, HANDS DOWN. Being far away fae home in Canada makes me proud to be a Scot, and miss Scotland. Well done Hibee fans, from a tic fan. 🏴🍀

Chelsea fan here too. Been going to the Bridge since 1967 and barring a handful, I haven't missed a home game since. Had a season in the West Lower now since it opened. I knew nothing about this song until I saw this pop in my suggestions. Talk about get you right in the pump and Dover. Cried for the first time in more than 60 years since my dad got killed. I ain't ashamed to say that this is beautiful. Like you said True, “Nothing says more about what it is to love your club through all the hard times...”
Bit like now. Them Hibees fans that were there that day, unashamedly singing out loud and proud, an outpouring of over 100 years of hurt, like I said, I cried bucket.
@@hugohackenbush1554 same as me northstand since the 70s. But this says everything. Especially about us in 80s going up and down but the best fans in the world then. Always had a soft spot for hibs
@@arthercamelot1140 I hear you my blue brother.
All together now... .“CAREFREE...WHEREVER YOU MAY BE...WE ARE THE FAMOUS....”
Im a shamrock rovers fan over here in dublin and i have to say that is the greatest football anthem i ever heard gives me goosebumps everytime hats of to you hibs fans and to the proclaimers for writing a classic god bless you all 💚🇮🇪☘🍀✌
I’ve got to agree with you here, this song is the bast. The Proclaimers must be soo proud. Who wouldn’t listening to these fans. The passion& emotion of Scottish fans cannot be beaten. I’m so proud to be Scottish 🏴.
nobody has bettered this, i have been a hearts fan for over 50 years
Genuinely, thank you for that.
Derby County Fan.
Has to go down as the most spine chilling moment at a football ground ever.. Watched this loads of times. To think the Proclaimers happened to have written the perfect song in the era when Hibs would win the cup after 114 year wait and 10 previous fails as losing finalists makes it all the more poignant. The perfect game taking the lead, going 2 - 1 down and rallying to get the late winner. Goosebumps stuff. The sun shone on the crowd too. Just perfect. Does make me smile though. All the rivalry with the 'Us English' and the people of your great nation end up fighting with each other. Who is the enemy anyway? Time to put all that division to bed, unite and embrace the humanity of this joyous experience. I bet the Rangers fans who have seen this since, wish they'd have stuck around and joined in the incredible wall of sound.
LFC fan. I used to think we had the most spine tingling, passionate anthem in football. I was wrong. This is majestic
The Hibs are singing a song penned and sung by Hibs Supporters. Never Walk Alone was written by Americans for an American Musical. :)
You were ALWAYS WRONG...........Justice for the heysel murdered.
@@any1younger You pathetic nunce. This gentleman praised how brilliant these fans are and just because he's a LIVERPOOL!!! fan, you have to make that comment. Most LIVERPOOL fans were disgusted of the actions at Heysel. I suppose you'll say that we were the ones that caused the 96 beautiful human beings to die at Hillsborough. If you can't say anything nice you can go to HELL!!!!!! I'm sick of opposing fans bringing up our past. It's the greatest football club on the planet and I wouldn't wish hatred on any other club . EXCEPT FOR MAN.U. LOL.
Stephen Lisson - Are you 12yrs old? I was actually at Hillsboro so I don’t need any lectures and abuse from a wet behind the ears fool.
@@any1younger Wet behind the ears fool. I'm 65 years old. Why does ever Liverpool hating fan, have to bring up the past? Simon's comment was to praise the Hibs fans and then you make that asinine comment about Heysel. That's why I made that comment. GET A LIFE!!!!! you plank.
Here I am again, end of 2019, with a lump in my throat and a tear in my eye. Beautiful, thanks Hibs fans for showing the rest of the world the passion that true football supporters have.
Scotland is green and white, happiness is being a Tim🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
Amazing
It's 2023. And you'll be back when you get a notification about my comment. I have a tissue ready for ya. I got the box right here.
Massive respect from a Mancunian Man United fan, I’ve watched this a few times and keep coming back to it every now and then, absolutely spine tingling. For those who were there and joined in it must have been one of the best 5 minutes of their life.
I'm a Celtic fan and this still brings a tear to my eye.
Not just the circumstances and the opposition but just how it must have felt to do it after so long
As Roma fan here, born in Rome and always lived here... i completely fell in love with Hibs after reading Irvine Welsh’s books. So many similarities with As Roma+ hibs anthem is the best
Quality bor,quality. 😀🔰💚💛👍
From a Rangers fan, true respect to the passion and commitment of the Hibs fans. What an amazing rendition of Sunshine of Leith. Really stirring stuff. Well done on the victory.

Took the kids away to Edinburgh for my 50th birthday and stayed in leith and what a wonderful place on the water,unforgettable memories for myself,josh,hollie and Reece xx
Brought more than a tear to my eyes, I have no interest in football, but I do have interest in peoples passion for what they live and stand for, this is pure passion and magical Love it..
Climbed Arthur's seat this August. Got to top, saw the Hibs Ground and sang 'Sunshine on Leith'. A special moment for me- my wife and daughter thought I was mad. It's just one of those things which I wanted to do. I am an Aston Villa fan from England! I watched the Villa lift the League trophy in 1981 and the European Cup in 1982. Football is football and respect is respect. God bless the brilliant Hibs fans and The Proclaimers. I forgot to buy a Hibs scarf when I was in Edinburgh. I want to buy a Hibs 'Sunshine on Leith' one for myself for my Birthday. Respect from Villa to Hibs. (John)
Lovely message 🙏👏
Lovely message. My pal is a villa fan and i helped him become a Hibby when up here. And a nice wee link in that the great Des Bremner transferred from the Hibs and help the Villa win the European Cup. fantastic player.
I’m a Celtic fan through and through but always had a soft spot for hibs, surely even a few of the coppers shed a tear at this💚
I was wondering how they would react watching that. Must have shed tears for that one. I would have joined in and I’m a Villa fan!
Well, they did give us a standing ovation ❤
I'm an English man
But the Scottish people are a different breed passionate stick together I wish I was born in Scotland
Steady on, old bean.
That’s a bit racist like.
You need St George in your heart ...
Apologies I’m an Englishman but absolutely LOVE the Proclaimers. This is my favourite song of theirs. You Hibs fans smashed it out of the park with that rendition. You made this chap well up 👏👏👏👏👏 Hibs fans.
Dont apologise for being an englishman brother. I'm Irish we don't apologise for being Irish, Scots shouldn't ... blah blah. It's about being a decent human being my friend.

Niklas Gunnarsson Loyal a hero on the day. Also John Arne Rilse and Morten Gamst Pedersen two of my favourite English Premier League Players ever.
No words can describe what I feel watching this. Massive respect from a Lazio fan
From a Dortmund fan, the hairs are still standing on the back of my neck. Incredible!!
Best day of my life...being at Hampden to see my beloved Hibernian finally win the Scottish Cup
Honestly dude, you guys did your team proud this shit is epic.

Heart felt and wonderful...im irish celtic and this is passion at its best..🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇺🇿🏴..well done hibs
JOHNNYM809 Your comment nearly brings a tear to my eye.
Arsenal fan here, absolutely spectacular from you hibs supporters, now that’s passion and a half!! Your team must have had shivers down their spines hearing you guys and girls belting that out, all supports should have that passion and emotion for their team so credit to you! 🙏🏻
I’m a proud Yorkshireman, but this has brought a tear to my eye. I only really came across the song the other week, but it’s already one of my all time favourites, and this rendition is spine tingling.
A few hundred police listening to the hibs fans singing their heart out. This is a thing of beauty and Scottish football should be proud. You may be wee hibees, but you're oor wee hibees, and we love you!
The most emotional song ever heard at a football match. Have waited so long to win the scottish cup, you can hear 100years of relief and joy in the singing of this song. A match that hibs fans will never forget. Just wish that l was a hibs fan on that day.
I'm a Celtic fan, this is unreal, I can not stop watching this video, my uncle has just passed away, and this brings a tear to my eye, much love to the hibs 😍 hail hail Neil Lennon.
Hope you're all good mo chara tiocfaidh ar la ggtth Mon the hoops 🇮🇪🇻🇦
It was Stubbs not Lennon
chris bhoy01 Stubbs was in charge of hibs
StacKed I know 😂
chris bhoy01 oh ok I didn’t know 😊 👍
I'm English and proud but I love the passion in which this was performed.
You people did your club and city proud and I read people have waited years to have this moment.
You guys never wasted it.
Superb.

As a Leicester season ticket holder for 40 years (and a left footer) this is the best ever terrace anthem I have ever heard. Tear to my eye, always love The Hibbies. Total respect brothers, B.S.
F.a. cup winners 2021 luhg.
And they say there’s nothing in Scottish football apart from the old firm... Bollocks, from a Celtic fan.
I'm a rangers fan and I'll 100 agree with that 👍

I was lucky to be there because my Scottish friends Billy, Jack and John made it possible for my friend Chris and me to be part of this awesome afternoon at Hampden. We're Germans supporting our teams from Leverkusen and Dusseldorf but we'll never forget THAT SPECIAL AFTERNOON in Glasgow in May 2016. Glory to the Hibees!!!
It was a pleasure Mark
The greatest terrace song I've ever heard - spine tingling stuff.
What an absolute spine tingling moving rendition this is God bless the Scots from a Bradford City fan
It's moments like this that football fans that have had their hearts broken on a regular basis over the years live for. Great anthem. Respect from a Northampton Town fan.
Nice reminder of what the game is about and a break from the hooliganism
@@BuinidhMoChridheDoAlba I've seen very little hooliganism for years .
They invaded the pitch and were fighting players and fans that's what all the mounted police were doing on the pitch not having a go just saying
Truely amazing love this song so much you guys obviously do I'd of been emotional wreck if I was in the stands I'm a villa fan and at times it gets specail like this in the holte end it makes football shine in it's own way tbh..ps loving john McGinn he is what we have missed for years
Iam a Man City fan 65 years old and that was put off this world ,,loved it just loved it gave me goose bumps Stewart Wiltshire ,,,,Respect 👍👍😢
English girl who can't stand football but this is just beautiful. Very powerful 👏👏👏♥️
I played professional football in the 70's and, now in my sixties, find it difficult to recapture the enthusiasm and sheer love of the game that I had in my innocent youth. This rendition reminds me of why I love football so much and of all the highs and lows that this magical game still brings. Moving beyond belief!
that has to be one of the most beautiful stirring things i have ever heard
Absolutely Outstanding, Goosebumps. Hail Hail an Newcastle United Fan.
From a Birmingham City fan, watched this video so many times and every time gives me goosebumps. Incredible. Keep Right On.
Respect mate. Hope the Brum are back in prem soon. GGTTH

Spot on with the goosebumps, had this played at my wedding.
for all those that don't get football and think its just some blokes kicking a ball and rolling about on the floor about this encapsulates it perfectly. haunting and inspiring....
My team, Šibenik in Croatia, was relegated this weekend from first tier. But on Wednesday we play Cup finale, for our first trophy ever. We hope for a moment like this. Wish us luck.
Sheffield United fan here, incredible anthem, I just keep coming back to watch it and listen to it. Can't help it
im a leeds fan. and quite a fanatic for leeds.but i defy any fan of any club in any league in the the world to produce such a beautiful harmonic and a magnificent moving joy to watch and listen as this.congratulations hibs.
HIBS FANS - YOU JUST CLAIMED THE BEST EVER TERRACE CHANT. I am in tears 😭. As a true Celtic fan I’ve witnessed many a passionate time on the terrace. BUT this is fuckin awesome. And for all the comments were fathers and past fathers who witnessed this it will be a cherished moment. 🏆. Just digest the performance, the day, even the sunshine ☀️ and last of all true PASSION. Well done Hibees. 🇳🇬
Agree well done
Your beauty and kindness....
Believe it or not this was ma mum's funeral song,hate hibs but love that song
Colin Mcclymont. Condolences! I’m sure it was a very emotional song that day. Peace ✌️

It genuinely does not get better than this. Cheers from America

Absolute quality. Probably one of the best songs from any set of supporters.
Fu ManU the only football song, what being a football fan is all about.

Incredible! I'm a Villa fan and I was so moved by this rendition of the Proclaimers' song that I had tears streaming down my cheeks. Football supporters are amazing and these Hibernian fans have absolutely made this song their own. Sheer brilliance! Charlie and Craig Reid, the twin brothers who front the band and are staunch Hibs fans must be so proud that their creation has become the club's anthem and must be elated every time they hear the crowd sing it. Absolutely incredible!
Enjoy McGiniesta ❤
Thanks. He looks a real player, a gem!

In the middle of Covid-19, missing football, and crowds, and the pure joy that this video conjures up. Well done Hibbees, you’ve moved an old Forest fan to tears!
Am Hibs and Forest and Forest before they were to become something that will never ever be repeated.
58 year old lifelong Chelsea fan. Bought a lump to my throat, real passion and a great great song
Overwhelming. This here and Irish fans singing "Fields of Athenry" on Euro 2012 against Spain, two greatest moments in a modern football. Greetings from Serbia from Partizan Belgrade fan!
Janet l remember my brother was so happy and proud that day,he was a hibs supporter all his life,I'm so glad he was alive to see hibs win the cup,sadly he died of cancer in 2o17 I've got his t shirts and scarfs on his bed and a ball signed by all the hibs player's,in memory of James rip sweet brother. xxxxxx
Janet, God bless your brother, maybe it's cup final day every day in Heaven ? Wudn't that be something 👍 RIP James, never met you, never knew you, but you sounded like a real special man, who knows, maybe Rotherham United have their own team up there, and what could be wrong with a ding dong Scotland v England game with all the passion of our supporters who have gone before us ! My late friend was a SWFC fan, and wud drive up and down the country, spina bifida be damned, and i wud luv pushing her thru foreign streets, I hope we can all meet up one day, sweet dreams and a cracking game of footy for all who went too soon x
I'm a Swansea City fan and they're the only team I'll ever support but whenever I see this and hear the fans belting out this beautiful song, I became a Hibs fan for four and a half minutes. This sums up everything I love about sport, everything I love about music and everything I love about being a fan and truly loving something. Wonderful, just wonderful.
A comment worthy of the video David. Hymns and Arias indeed...
I just watched this again and remembered the great day in May when I stood in my flat in London watching the TV and roaring this at the top of my voice with tears streaming down my face.
You need to to be a Hibee to fully understand the passion and the excitement is there for all to see
I just love this song, lost my amazing dad 3 months ago, we both loved football, luton town we r, miss him so much, cant stop playing this song
RIP hope u r ok
As a Rangers fan, my heart WAS broken that day, but living in Edinburgh at the time, hearing possibly the greatest rendition of a song at any match, and seeing what it meant to Hibs fans, thank you for drying my tears a bit with that 🍻
@Tony W Christ, I never thought about that. There are youngsters in that audience that will grow up with hope
OI’m v
Back again, listening to the most wonderful football fans tune I've ever heard in my 51 years on this planet. I love the villa with all my heart till my last dying breath, I love football and grew up with heroes. Hibs are my second team forever.
We love the villains mate. They made sure SJM didnt go to celtic. So thankful. He doesnt play against us.

Super John mcginn has been brilliant for us and we love him.
Im a Lyon fan and this gives me goose bumps
Allez Hibs
I’m a Toon fan. My dad was born a stone throw from Tynecastle. Hearts are my Scottish team. Despite the rivalry, this was brilliant
Every time I watch this, it warms my heart so much. I keep coming back to it time and again and it never fails to put a smile on my face. The most amazing fan singalong of all time. For those there, it must have been spine tingling.
Even the riot police horses shedding tears there.
🤣
😂
Bumped into an old schoolmate of mine and it turned out he's a mounted copper now. Asked him if he was at the Cup Final and he said he was the first horse on. Didn't mention that one of my mates was on the pitch. Gutted I wasn't there myself. Was at the previous 9 Hibs Scottish and League Cup finals, but was working, though got finished in time to catch it in the pub at least At least the other most famous "Sunshine on Leith" rendition, at the 2007 League Cup Final had the extra bonus of being on my birthday and I was there though seem to remember it being several degrees colder.
i think theirs a celtic v hibs cup game on the horizon hopefully
Underrated comment tbh 👏👏
I watch this video every so often as, whilst I'm a Leeds fan, this epitomises everything great about the joy football can bring to thousands.
Roared when the winner went in like it was my own team. I stood at Hampden in tears when my team - Motherwell - won the Cup 25yrs ago, and we still talk about it. A huge WELL DONE from Lanarkshire. Enjoy and celebrate long and hard.
What a thoroughly lovely comment David; THIS is what it's about!
David Morrison
i was in tears that day as well , i'm an arab though. :) great final though
From a rangers fan who lost the final that memory of those hibs fans will always stay,unreal
From a spurs fan, that is amazing, anyone who loves football and doesn't think that's the best, there's something wrong with them, respect to the hibs
I did my time in the Old Dart in the mid 70s and became a 'Spurs supporter through connections with the family of a Spurs' Great. The chanting and singing facinated me. We don't do that back home, well not in Australian Rules anyway. Back then it was only West Ham that had a song, Blowing bubbles. The rest had the same chants, just a few different words. I've paid little attention to soccer since 1977 when I returned. I stumbled across this video on youtube earlier this year. 2016 was a remarkable year for underdogs. My Aus Rules team, Bulldogs, won its second Premiership and first in 62 years, in 2016. The emotion of that day was unforgettable. Underdogs won in AFL and NRL in Aus; Leicester in the EPL; Ll...something or other in Wales; Chicago Cubs in US Basebasll, some team called Van something or other in US basketball; Portugal in Europe. Leaving aside Trump and Brexit, the greatest was Hibs. It's ripe for a book.
to the 201 people who gave this the thumbs down,i sincerely hope at some point in your life you experienced even half the joy i felt standing behind the goals, in that moment singing sunshine on Leith,as a true Leither having watched a team i and all my family members support and always have supported all the way back to my Irish great grandparents who had moved "little Ireland (the Grassmarket in Edinburgh)and followed Hibernian football club from day one. won the scottish cup,a cup that we had not won in 114 years and had almost accepted we would not ,no sorry could not win!! in the bright sunshine some 26,000 members of the hibs quire serenade 500 police Scotland cuntstubbles,the broken goalposts and dug up pitch a reminder of the 10 minute period when the Hibernian support had relieved police Scotland of their control of law and order and let them know after waiting 114 to witness an event that we never really believed we would witness and remembered our family members and friends we had watched hibs with over the years, who were no longer with us, i personally felt my grandad Francis and mates Mikey and James among others joining in the chorus from heaven... while the chief puts sunshine on Leith...thanks for the thumbs down boys, the ggtth that followed was a belter tae!
Buddy the people with the thumbs down do not have a soul. This song is BEAUTIFUL.
Would love to see this in person.
The best rendition of any football song I've ever heard.
Fuck me, even as a dundee united fan I totally agree
Hat is off to you pal, as a Glaswegian Celtic supporter, this is just beautiful
I'm a fanatical Rangers fan, who lived in Edinburgh for 20 years. I wasn't happy with the end result, but I'm so happy for Hibs.
My best friend in Edinburgh was Mike Conner, who I used to regularly support the Hibs with.....tragically he died in 1999.
This IS one of the best tracks I've ever heard, and I'd like to dedicate it to MIKE, who has a BRICK in the Hibs Stadium wall.

A proud mancunian and united fan but after doing my army training up in Edinburgh I'm so glad it introduced me to the hibs what a club
@Joe Peroni I'm a soldier I said I like Hibs not everything you're going on about it's football mate not politics
I'm a Pompey fan and this brought a lump to the throat, respect to Hibs
Amazing! Why has it taken me nearly 3 years to witness this? All the negative news was Rangers fans invading the pitch after their loss to fight the Hibs fans who were celebrating (but the Rangers fans did it to protect their players of course). This rendition of Sunshine on Leith should have been the main news of the day! Respect to the Hibs fans. Fantastic!
Words can’t describe the feeling of being at this special once in a lifetime event. The supporters that went before us, who lived in hope of one day seeing their team lift the cup but never did. We all sung our hearts out that day for them! #GGTTH
A wee special mention for my kid brother Jamie, unfortunately this was to be his final of final matches. R.I.P brother, until we meet again. #Myheartwasbroken GGTTH
114 years. That’s the history never to be repeated. You can’t buy this emotion. You either feel it or you don’t. You need to have lived it. There’s no fake’s amongst us. We never chose to hunt glory by choosing a team that wins the league every year. The team chooses you because it’s engrained in who you are and were your from. Every single person who reads this will identify with what I’ve said with their own team. I hope you can all one day feel the same emotion as we did that brilliant day in 2016. #GGTTH
As a Bluenose the result was a sore one however reading your comment puts life firmly back into perspective. Really sorry to read about your kid brother. I am sure he enjoyed the day and will be reliving it on repeat up the stairs.
I'm Aussie, but folks are from Leith. I went back a few years ago and experienced the boys singing this amazing song. I'm a big quiet guy but the best tears I ever shed was during this. Thank you boys.
Im a Tongan from New Zealand.. and I love the Hibs and particularly this song... always play it when im on it...
Up there with the Haka for Jonah Lomu. Both so heartfelt for so many.
