I, as a true Englishman really enjoy Scotish military music. Bloody marvellous.
Scottish army music band has a great influence on Nepalese army band.We got those frocks and the bagpipes from them.Cheers.
All the best from yorkshire
Scotland is the true English soul
This isnt millitary music this is entertainment and we don't march into battle that would be idiotic

FROM PAKISTAN.
Hello....A special greeting from CHILE SouthAmerica, to all of you... Great Pipe Band....Congratulations to Sir ....
Wow,, years of history and commitment in all the "mature" drum majors.
I grew up in Toronto, Ontario with parents from Glasgow. Often times we would wake up to bag pipe music such as Black Watch or such. To this day I love the music and often brings tears to my eyes as I think of mom dad. My mom often at Christmas gave us a highland fling. Such great and fun memories. 🙋♀️🎶
That was emotional. Things like this make me extremely proud of my Scottish blood. I always get chills when I hear the bagpipes. Well done
That's the hardest part about doing something you love so very much.
At some point in time, you have to say good bye. God bless and keep you, Drum Major Rae.
Congratulation to Mr. David Rae from the Czech Republic! Beautiful scottish pride!
I'm an Englishman and I love the sound of the pipes
As an American many generations separated from my Scottish heritage, the sound of the pipes still thrill me. I have to think there is some hereditary marker in the DNA of descendants of the Scots that carry an abiding love for the sound of pipes. God bless Scotland!
I thought I was alone with that thought. I tear up at the sound, like it hurts my heart. Harrd to explain but I feel the sound.

A good drum major is a hard thing to come by even harder to replace.
God bless you sir! Scotland forever! 💗
I’m from the US(Minnesota). Tears and goosebumps consumed me throughout this video-absolutely beautiful. ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Ah the Pipes......They have always sent a chill up my spine and a swell of pride.....and I'm not Scottish! Or maybe I was in another life time eh laddie?
Thanks Major Rae.
After all the discipline of the march it's really nice to see the fellows take their bearskins off and give each other a pat and a "nicely done". By hokey, that's a way to finish a pipes march-past!
Very beautiful. My heart will go on.
Just fabulous , im an Englishman and the pipes and drums in full flow always send a massive shiver down my spine . Thank you Drum Major !!
Great video. And as someome who grew up with family from the Northeast, the local accents at the end twanged at my heartstrings.

Aye, no one like us
Listening to bagpipe music is a learned experience; as witnessed by that sweet, little girl plugging her ears as they went by. Thank you for sharing this bit of humanity with us (not the girl but the award ceremony)!
Beautiful Fairwell.
In a completely different field I'm also about to retire. I can just imagine what's going through his head as he leads that march for the last time. Not easy... If you're out there Davey, my transition will be easier than yours - but we're all just boats going down the river to the sea. Here's to you.
Bravo MAJOR respect à vous et tous ces hommes amitiés de FRANCE :)
Just saw many of your videos. Loved the parades, the stoned houses, the trees and the nature. Greetings from Corfu.
Congratulations David.

As soothing as this might sound to us, the very sound of these songs would of sent fear into the hearts of their enemies knowing what was coming.

I don't want to ruin the moment but someone was late on the cut off!
And he kept squeaking afterwards like a little fart escaping tight cheeks!
@@feraynironmane8101 It makes me feel so much better when I mess up a cut off or a strike in knowing that much better pipers than me mess up too.
@billyf.635 I guess it's OK as long as he didn't soil himself.
T R A D I T I O N !! Love it.
Great video and god bless Scotland 👍
Good to watch,
The front centre piper is steaming - he's all over the road.
another beautiful grey day in Scotland
Auntie Mary had a canary
Up the leg of her drawers
When she farted it departed
With a round of applause.
Auntie Mary had a canary
Up the leg of her drawers
It always come doon
in the month of June
Whistling " the cock of the north"
How can you not be moved by that ?!
I love the dedication in the UK Armed Forces (capital is out of respect ) .. There is some countries, that could cut out a piece of that dedication!!!!!!!!!
Now, that was a cool video.
J'adore, la cornemuse,
Et le kilt. 😉
I love this. One day I'll see this myself 😊
