Yea, imagine how many more great European songs were overlooked by imperious American music moguls. This piece only got international recognition after it was featured in some Yankee movie.
@@doubleghod This one was not overlooked, it is just not popular when first released. It is like the Beatles when they first started in America. Many songs and artists have been big hits in their own country only to be unknown next door.
It was always popular in Scotland, The Proclaimers regularly had packed venues, always have done. 500 miles is a song sung just about everywhere in Scotland and still is along with Loch Lomond at the end of the night. That's been the case since the late 1980 onwards. I went to a gig in Glasgow back in 1989 where The Proclaimers sold out, and the whole crowd knew and sang 500 Miles even back then.
I love it! I use to change the words and sing this to my sweet grandbaby... I think God always was trying to tell me that one day I wouldn't get to see him much... I Always had a sadness every day, when I left him, and I kept him daily nearly til he was 3... I cherished every day with him and I still cherish the little bit of time I get to spend with him... he doesn't remember me keeping him, but he has a few videos so he knows it's true...This brings tears to my heart and memories to my old mind... bittersweet... I so wish I could've recorded every moment spent with him... I'd watch them daily...
Videos like this with big groups of people coming together to sing and create art together always remind me of my love for us human beings ❤️ especially when it's with such a sweet and happy song like this one!
Funny stuff.....I got a sunburn after i shaved my melon when i was about your age. Terrible!!!!! Luckily i was wearing a shirt but my face,ears,scalp??? Toasted. My entire head wasnt red it actually turned purple. Taking a shower??? Had to gently wet my head. Sleeping was another headache. Not to mention that my skin wasn't used to the sun so a migrane for 3 days. When that stage was over...my head started to peel. Flaking too. All over the place. Fun tines. Lesson learned. Keep up the good work
Scottish People will be proud of this act..love from Philippines..
only country in the world that could get this together,Scotland
I thought Wales had a great choral tradition.
Except the Gurt Lush choir is from Bristol in England (although it is, of course, a cover of the Proclaimers song, by the Scottish Reid twins).
They couldn't possibly have known that they would be creating one of the very best TH-cam clips ever, but that is exactly what they've done!
Makes one smile instantly. Brilliant! Great Choir, conductress, guitarist, kids, just brilliant
Considering this song bombed when first released, it is amazing how culturally popular it is today.

Unbelievable.

I was hesitant to play this and I am so glad I gave this a chance. It's a lovely & beautifully arranged tribute. Well done.
as a scotsman this the most epic choral song ever
Love you!
This is one of the cutest videos I have ever seen, loved the old ladies enjoying it!
