Went to see him at the Usher Hall in Edinburgh back in 1994. For his World Tour of Scotland, it was brilliant, and this song brings back so many memories from that time...
Had the pleasure of cooking Billy's dinner many years ago while staying in arran and I was head chef in a hotel he stayed while he was doing his dvd World tour of Scotland and played in the Brodick Hall . He gave me tickets as a tip and I was the happiest guy in the world. Livi g legend of Scotland never forgot where he came from.
I met billy in Newcastle last time I saw him, everyone was wanting photos, I just said “mr Connolly can I have your autograph” his answer was “the last time anyone said mr Connolly to me was when I got knicked” absolutely priceless and made my night, absolutely love the guy an absolute hero of mine. The wokes and snowflakes need to watch and take a life’s lesson from billy👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
This song is so fitting for me. Left Scotland when I was just a boy and was homesick for a long time and this song always brings a tear to my eyes. And Billy’s version is the true version for me.
I have lost all of my family apart from 1 brother. This song makes me cry a bit. I hope anyone who listen's to this and still has their loved one's, I really hope that they try and appreciate each other every day. I'm only 53. That's too young to have lost all of their families apart from 1 Brother. It's so hard sometimes.
God love ya Billy when i go out I'm going out to you singing this. you have bought so much joy to a sad tough life. You inspire me beyond words Love & Light ya Big Yin
This song reminds me of my dad so much, why do people take their families for granted just be grateful you have a dad and other family members, you never know what is going to happen tomorrow tell your parents you love them same with the rest of your family, I love this song and the passion that Billy puts into the song.
Always loved this song ever since I heard it watching his tour of Scotland many years ago. It is very sad that his health is now deteriorating so much that we may not see him perform on stage again. Such a wonderful entertainer and funny man.
Got the bonus cd with the tour of Scotland videos and used to listen to it constantly when I was a kid, always pulled my heart strings whenever I heard it
this truly is the best version of this song out there, the galeic ensamable marching behind with drums n bag pipes makes this truly amazing., my husband did an amazing job on it ! 😍
Thank you very much for posting this song and especially this version ! … You have absolutely no idea what this song means to a lot of people in Scotland … Thank you …
First heard this on 3TFM Radio.Which is our Favourite radio station.Archie Edgar Show.My kind of Music. Have been Completely Blown Away with this song of Billys.The Words.The Music.The Singer.

Hope it will get out there .We all need to feel although we cant “ TOUCH “ or be with our LOVED ONES” This Song will help us to Look Forward..ONWARDS AND UPWARDS 🌈🙏❤️👏👏👏
