You can't explain how Scotland the Brave makes you feel, but you know it immediately. It goes right through you, making you rise up after getting knocked down again and again. - a US citizen.
Brought tears to my eyes. English but love Scotland - my late husband was Scottish. Long live Scotland, the bag pipes and the Edinburgh tattoo. Wonderful tradition
I am from the U.S. as well, I was going to post the same advice. Scotland kicks ass!!! Keep at it, Scotland, you get a lot of love over here... I mean a LOT!!!
I'm English married to a Scottish lassie for 40+ years and I never tire of hearing the pipes and drums. Mind you I've loved them since before I met her so now I have a double reason to live Scotland
Aye, my longest most serious gf was Scottish and I'm 6'4", with a big red beard, and I wear a Great Kilt in the woods, it's amazing to be able to wear something that doubles as clothes and a blanket, and doesn't restrict the movement with yer "boys" great for loping through the glens haha, I'm in Antrim, but they lured me in with redheads and whiskey lol
As an Englishman, you cannot deny Scottish pipes, bands are truly something and always puts a lump in the throat, hairs stand up on my arms. We have our banter, history, modern day we have to unite, more than ever before
Its like my daddy told me...Aye, fight and you may die. Run and you’ll live, at least a while. And dying in your beds many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, just one chance to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they’ll never take our FREEDOM!

Hello Thomas - I count it as a highlight in my life that I spent some time (too short) in Malta seven years ago. Went everywhere, met people, in a low- key sort of way, ate the local fare, saw everything, I was in heaven. I had wanted to go to Malta forever, and I was not disappointed in any way. Your country still calls to me. Its history is more, just more, in all ways than any other. I am proud to be an American, but Malta does call to me.
Wait a minute,I'm Scottish and yes proud to hear the pipes.But the SNP have driven the place into wreck and ruin,corruption within the party with wee Krankie and her husband,you could not make it up.They put Braveheart on before voting to try and stir the Bucky troups up.but they are getting found out,yes it's a beautiful country because it rains all the time,people are brainwashed!
My late father served for the kings army as a captain. He was selected to call the marching regiment to order. I hear him” by the left! Quick march!” My hero, I’m 68 yrs this month. Looking forward to seeing you again Dad.❤
I am not a Scot myself. I have been a Canadian citizen for half my life but at the sound of pipes I would not fear death in battle or elsewhere. So long live SCOTLAND THE BRAVE!!!
@@TrevorPickford. Scotlands highest immigration to Scotland is English and Irish Protestants is that a wee clue. Our large Polish population along with Italian and Portuguese were told “ vote independence and you will be deported as Scotland will be outside the EU . Our pensioners were told they would lose their pension , lie after lie after lie. The propaganda pumped out by the London MSM is beyond anything Putin or North Korea could even have wished for.

We Americans of the eastern highlands of the country where many Scottish people immigrated, thank you for all the Scottish traditions you brought to our country! God Bless you. I learned fried chicken came from your Scottish culture. Thank you! I hope before my life ends I get to visit Scotland, Ireland and Great Britain! You are on my bucket list! Love you all! 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Fried chicken didn't come from Scottish culture. Stovies, mince and tatties, potato scones, Haggis, Black Pudding, Fruit Pudding, Scottish pies, Scotch Broth, Clootie Dumpling and so much more are what I remember from my childhood in Scotland. I do hope you get the chance to visit x

I'm a US citizen with Scottish ancestry. Absolutely love the marching, the bagpipes, and the drums. We have a bapipes/drum group for firemen here in Oregon out of Bend. Love them!
I am a New Zealander with family heritage from Scotland. Visiting my roots made me proud to have that DNA. Just hearing the skirl if the pipes gives me goosebumps.
Yeah, they do that --- it's a regular set with them. Welp, guess I should master _The Black Bear,_ which has a rather difficult phrase in the middle of it, if ever I want to run with the big guys.
When I hear the Black Bear being played it reminds me of listening to my Pipe Major playing it so many years ago now. RIP Jim, I'll never ever forget you.

Although no one in my family is Scottish, my mom, who never was enthusiastic about most things outdoors, loved the Scottish Games that were held in Sonoma County, California for decades. We went every year to watch and cheer. It drew competitors from all over the USA , Scotland, and the world. The Braemar Highlanders honored us by sending a genuine Scottish caber some years back. The Games moved to Pleasanton in the 90's, but continue the SF Bay Area tradition that's been continuous since 1866!!! Not many people know that it is the longest running sporting event in the USA!!! Every time I hear the pipes and drums I get goosebumps❤ Scotland Forever!
All though I didn't finish all my training Scotland the Brave helped me survive a 50 mile force Mach in 102 heat in Louisiana 1974. I do have an Honorable Discharge.
I like to think there’s a little Scot in all of us I’m basically a quarter Polish and don’t really know much more about my heritage besides, but I’m American through and through and this This calls to me too choom, gets me hyped
I'm a middle-aged+ woman, french Canadian ... and I feel the same as you. Can't explained it in a rational manner ! I know I have English, Irish ancestry, as well as from the British Channel Islands of Guernsey and Jersey. I have yet to find evidence of Scottish heritage, but damned, it must be there in my blood ;)
If ur a son or daughter of Scotland the pipes and drums speak to ur soul no matter were u are u feel it deep inside to us its not just music its a battle cry a rally call no matter we're u are in the world it speaks to us its calling us home🏴 SCOTLAND THE BRAVE!!
As an Englishman, I have nothing but respect for our Scottish, Welsh, and Irish brethren. Our relationship is complex and emotional, we've fought and fallen out many times but we are brothers and a family. Our blood runs deep through the hills and rivers of these special islands; we must unite to protect our land, cultures, and values...
The Irish people are a nation who fought for their independence, don't include them in your so called roll of honour. Your blood stained English empire is long since gone.
New Yorker here - I was only half-paying attention, waiting for the music to begin, then saw US Navy uniforms. THAT got my attention... What? Us Yanks here? Awesome ! Funny how we've fought against the Brits twice, with them more times than we can count, and they're still some of our best friends.... One of my best personal friends is a transplanted Brit. Love how we're not actually part of the UK, but we're all mixed right in anyway.
Same here, and I'm Welsh! I'm retired UK armed forces, if I'd have had to go into any kind of face to face fighting, I would have followed the sound of those pipes anywhere. They truly get your blood up!
In the Netherlands they like the bag pipes performing at the remembrance services for the fallen (especially WW2). My mom explained she had experienced them honouring the resistance in our province of Drenthe. Liberated by the Canadians, French and Polish. Lest we forget
You mean, you should give thanks for the freedom you now enjoy because Great Britain endured and refused to surrender to the Nazi horde your country so readily surrendered to. p.s Apart from Ukraine, the Netherland's had the 2nd biggest non German Waffen SS brigades during WW2. You forgot to mention that part.
I had the wonderful opportunity to attend the Edinburgh Tattoo some years ago, and it was thrilling beyond belief. I'll remember that glorious spectacle as long as I liv
I’m English and everytime I hear Scotland the brave I get so emotional to the point I can’t explain how or what to even feel, hearing Scotland the brave makes me feel courageous and proud of Scotland so I suppose I may of definitely been Scottish In my past life! Love you Scotland 🏴🏴❤️
I am American born of mostly Irish and Scottish heritage. I always love hearing the pipes but , to see American military members ( and other countries) marching along side was something to behold. :-)
Growing up in Utah, USA, most parades had at least one pipe and drum band because of our strong shared heritage with Scotland. This was next level, but brought back good memories of that.
Its like my daddy told me...Aye, fight and you may die. Run and you’ll live, at least a while. And dying in your beds many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, just one chance to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they’ll never take our FREEDOM!
I’m an American out of California and I was first introduced to Scotland the Brave and the sound of pipes and drums with the film, the Devil’s Brigade when I was about 5 years old. I’ve never forgotten that iconic scene when the polished Canadians march to join a group of American roughnecks to form the First Special Service Force. To this day, I am moved by the sound of pipe and drums and Scotland the Brave and Black Bear are my go-tos when I need a little inspiration and a 🔥 under my ass. I’m less than 1/16th Scottish decent, but damn, my heart would believe otherwise when it hears those pipes.
I'm not a Scot, but I have the memories of taking my Mum, then 85, to watch the Tattoo in 2019. Mum always loved the sound of bagpipes, and I'm so pleased we managed to do this one last time. She passed away in January, and we just had to play "Amazing Grace" by the Royal Scots Dragoon pipers for her as we said farewell.
I’m Canadian but so proud of my great great grandfather Jamie Fraser, to coming to a small town in Canada and opening a men’s store of suits and kilts for his Scottish ties that came to Canada. The store in Renfrew Canada was opened for many many years ago because he was a suit maker. Thank you Jamie/James Fraser for bring up some Scottish family members.
M husband's mother was a Fraser and her dad was a history and math teacher in New Brunswick wonder if your related? Small world. Beautiful culture. My husband is very tall with reddish brown hair and dark skin. Very handsome. Had fusion of his spine and now is just painful.
I never take for granted the privilege of being born in Edinburgh. Its home....i wouldn't want to be anywhere else. No better sound than the bagpipes. Well done those pipers and drummer's ❤
Just got home last night from a 17 day trip to Scotland and was very fortunate to be able to see the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo, probably the most memorable part of the trip. And, it didn’t rain! Love Scotland and the Scottish people. I would go back in a heartbeat.
A sassanach here !! Wow.. Bagpipes always make me cry.. they give me goosebumps.. I get so emotional 🙄🤣 Going to see the Tattoo next week. So excited!!!
THIS proud US Army brat STANDS w Scotland! May my amazing US of A NEVER fail to come to the aid of our Scottish and Irish brethren. Scotland FOREVER!!!
@@anthonyferris8912 That may be true, but I don't think there will be any refusal under the right conditions. I don't think NATO matters as much as many people think in terms of our peoples uniting in defense of our homes and families. Reciprocation cannot happen without someone starting the ball rolling...and we won't fail to help unless some fool "leader" stops us. Imho, there are far too many Irish-American families with strong ties to Ireland for your attitude to hold sway overall.
So glad to see the members of The Citadel Band Company and the Pipe and Drum Corps. The Citadel Military College of South Carolina always brings the best. Well done. GO DAWGS!!!
My wife and I had the honor of seeing the Tattoo in person last week. What an amazing sound and show! Well done to all the performers and to the festival staff!
I'm a Canadian married into a Scottish clan. I was fortunate to visit Edinburgh in 1997 and had a fantastiic experience watching the EdinburghTattoo what a marvelous spectacle. "Whoa be the man who hears the pipes and was nae born a Scotsman" I Love Scotland. "If it's nae Scottish its crrrap! 😂😂
I was born in Toronto in 1931, my parents ( Aberdonian) we left Toronto to go back to Aberdeen due to the depression. I was 4 yrs. then. We lived there through WW2. I moved to Coventry with my Gordon Highlander Husband( Aberdonian) My parents moved back to Canada, my hip is and & I came back to Toronto on the Queen Mary on Dec.19/55 landing in N/Y, then on to T.O. My heart is still in Aberdeen. I took my husband’s ashes back in 2003..At 93 yrs. I am loving this video, I have been to Edinburgh, not the Tattoo sadly. Love Scotland the Brave!🏴🇨🇦👍🏻Cheers.🙋♀️
Actually, Switzerland scores a lot higher on education, economy, trust in politicians, healthcare, etc, but I have to admit that the pipes and drums beat the alpine horn every day of the week and twice on Sundays.
@@James-yl1ox I hate to admit it but there is almost nothing Swiss anymore about Toblerone. It is owned by the American conglomerate Mondelez and the production has almost completely moved to Bratislava so the packaging lost the “made in Switzerland” label. Sic transit Gloria Mundi. :))
My dad loved the Scottish pipes and bands "he used to take me to Bellahouston Park in Glasgow too watch and listen to all the bands from all over the world playing and it was amazing and we would Smile at each other and the hairs on my neck would stand up, "My Dad is Dead now but i I think of him all the time 'obviously' when i listen to Good Scottish Sounds like this and he was a Proud Irishman' "God bless my Dad and God bless Scotland and Ireland ❤❤💚💚
I’m from the US. We had the honor of seeing the Tattoo in 1992. So awe inspiring! We don’t recall the US bands being a part of the ceremony, but maybe that’s because we’re old. 😊 Would love to go back to Scotland to visit our friends there and see the Tattoo once again. 💙🏴💙

Funny how we've fought against the Brits twice, with them more times than we can count, and they're still some of our best friends.... One of my best personal friends is a transplanted Brit. Love how we're not actually part of the UK, but we're all mixed right in anyway.
@@DJ-bh1ju The UK is our closest allie. Arguably the closest alliance in history.
Scotland the brave... Goosebumps and tears of joy.
I am from Germany, never heard the pipes in reality, and dont ask why … I love them so much
I get Goosebumps & emotional everytime i hear Scotland the brave , and I'm Irish!
Same here, and I'm Welsh! I'm retired UK armed forces, if I'd have had to go into any kind of face to face fighting, I would have followed the sound of those pipes anywhere. They truly get your blood up!
In the Netherlands they like the bag pipes performing at the remembrance services for the fallen (especially WW2). My mom explained she had experienced them honouring the resistance in our province of Drenthe. Liberated by the Canadians, French and Polish. Lest we forget
I learned some decades ago that the Netherlands have never forgotten, and I have loved you all ever since.
@@MiltonFindley My city has been liberated by the Canadians... by the 4th tank division of the Lake Superiour Regiment... thank you🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
You mean, you should give thanks for the freedom you now enjoy because Great Britain endured and refused to surrender to the Nazi horde your country so readily surrendered to. p.s Apart from Ukraine, the Netherland's had the 2nd biggest non German Waffen SS brigades during WW2. You forgot to mention that part.
❤️🇨🇦. That was heartwarming. My Scottish born Grandfather was a gunner in the Canadian army. Stay safe and free , Netherlands!
@@hiramabiff2017 - I read that history and I was young once. I also had a father, grandfather, and a couple of uncles who fought in that war.
I had the wonderful opportunity to attend the Edinburgh Tattoo some years ago, and it was thrilling beyond belief. I'll remember that glorious spectacle as long as I liv
A Wee tear to the eye. Thank you for allowing us to see this amazing piece of Scottish Heritage in all its glory.
My Mother passed recently and even though she was not of Scottish descent she asked for a piper to play at her funeral. Very touching.
What is it about bagpipes that make you want to cry, then make you want to fight?!?!
That both can come of one single set (of two or more tunes). I offer _Flowers of the Forest,_ then _The Black Bear_ for grieving and for fighting.
If you again need to weep after battle... well, there's _Lord Lovat's Lament,_ and also _Battle of the Somme._
My wife is from Scotland- over the years Ive always loved stuff like this
Oh yeah my father was Scottish, and played the Bagpipes in every Parade,❤❤❤
I’m English and everytime I hear Scotland the brave I get so emotional to the point I can’t explain how or what to even feel, hearing Scotland the brave makes me feel courageous and proud of Scotland so I suppose I may of definitely been Scottish In my past life! Love you Scotland 🏴🏴❤️
I am American born of mostly Irish and Scottish heritage. I always love hearing the pipes but , to see American military members ( and other countries) marching along side was something to behold. :-)
Europe likes Scotland more then ever!🥰
Canadian with Scottish DNA and last name - the pipes never fail to move me to tears. So happy to share kinship with these great people.
I am a Hong Konger. I'm so happy that I have been to Scotland for sightseeing. I'm so glad to visit there and I love it. I wish to go there again. 🎉
Something about the pipes and drums brings the spirit of my ancestors back for a brief period!
Growing up in Utah, USA, most parades had at least one pipe and drum band because of our strong shared heritage with Scotland. This was next level, but brought back good memories of that.
Shed lots of tesrs watching this I love my Scotland the pipes sre so moving
I love the representation of all the different countries! If we all could be just people with respect for each other. Our world would be so WONDERFUL!
It’s what every patriot feels no matter what country your from, pride of those that are willing to die to protect their families and their way of life
Its like my daddy told me...Aye, fight and you may die. Run and you’ll live, at least a while. And dying in your beds many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, just one chance to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they’ll never take our FREEDOM!
From South Africa. I was raised on the music of Scotland and Ireland. This brings back many memories.
3 of my 4 grandparents were scottish. My grandmother was born in Paisley. Goosebumps don't even describe how I feel when hearing this.
Born in Paisley myself…..
Fellow buddie from Paisley

Stay true to your countries values and traditions; it's a beautiful country.
"Rituals That Unite Us" - - - So desperately needed!
Sorry for your departure.
My dad loved the bagpipes so much! Miss you Dad!
I’m an American out of California and I was first introduced to Scotland the Brave and the sound of pipes and drums with the film, the Devil’s Brigade when I was about 5 years old.
I’ve never forgotten that iconic scene when the polished Canadians march to join a group of American roughnecks to form the First Special Service Force.
To this day, I am moved by the sound of pipe and drums and Scotland the Brave and Black Bear are my go-tos when I need a little inspiration and a 🔥 under my ass.
I’m less than 1/16th Scottish decent, but damn, my heart would believe otherwise when it hears those pipes.
I'm not a Scot, but I have the memories of taking my Mum, then 85, to watch the Tattoo in 2019. Mum always loved the sound of bagpipes, and I'm so pleased we managed to do this one last time. She passed away in January, and we just had to play "Amazing Grace" by the Royal Scots Dragoon pipers for her as we said farewell.
How lovely!
@@goldenoldie68 Excellent.
Glad your mother was a fan and that you aided her to enjoy!
Bless you ❤️
I love hearing Black Bear into Scotland the Brave.
I’m Canadian but so proud of my great great grandfather Jamie Fraser, to coming to a small town in Canada and opening a men’s store of suits and kilts for his Scottish ties that came to Canada. The store in Renfrew Canada was opened for many many years ago because he was a suit maker. Thank you Jamie/James Fraser for bring up some Scottish family members.
M husband's mother was a Fraser and her dad was a history and math teacher in New Brunswick wonder if your related? Small world. Beautiful culture. My husband is very tall with reddish brown hair and dark skin. Very handsome. Had fusion of his spine and now is just painful.
I never take for granted the privilege of being born in Edinburgh. Its home....i wouldn't want to be anywhere else. No better sound than the bagpipes. Well done those pipers and drummer's ❤
Just got home last night from a 17 day trip to Scotland and was very fortunate to be able to see the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo, probably the most memorable part of the trip. And, it didn’t rain! Love Scotland and the Scottish people. I would go back in a heartbeat.
Scotland the Brave is some BADASS Music.
it was used to fill the hearts of the enemy with fear!
They had the nickname The Ladies from hell!
A sassanach here !! Wow.. Bagpipes always make me cry.. they give me goosebumps.. I get so emotional 🙄🤣 Going to see the Tattoo next week. So excited!!!
God bless Scotland! Greetings from Bavaria! 😊
my parents are from Latin America but I was born in USA, listening to bag pipes gets me emotional.
I stand with the Scottish people and their heritage. Don't let some people in government destroy it.
I've never cared a thing about traveling around the world but I would give anything to see Scotland.
Put your mind to it and make it happen!
My youngest son travelled the world and his favourite place was Scotland.
You wouldn't regret it!
We'll have the kettle on for your arrival! 😉
@@chadUCSD yep! There is just something hauntingly beautiful about the Scottish bagpipes,my son travelled the world and fell in love with Scotland.❤️
THIS proud US Army brat STANDS w Scotland!
May my amazing US of A NEVER fail to come to the aid of our Scottish and Irish brethren.
Scotland FOREVER!!!
@stitch626aloha Your Irish brethren are neutral and not in NATO, so don't expect reciprocation, but thanks for the offer. 😄
Canadian RCAF brat here, of Scots/Irish descent. I am with you!
@@anthonyferris8912 That may be true, but I don't think there will be any refusal under the right conditions. I don't think NATO matters as much as many people think in terms of our peoples uniting in defense of our homes and families. Reciprocation cannot happen without someone starting the ball rolling...and we won't fail to help unless some fool "leader" stops us. Imho, there are far too many Irish-American families with strong ties to Ireland for your attitude to hold sway overall.
I was brought up on my mom's love for anything Scottish. To this day I still listen to bagpipes. Gives me a sense of peace.
Saw them all on TV to-nite...Bloody Brilliant....Hopefully NOT TO BE STOPPED!!!
So glad to see the members of The Citadel Band Company and the Pipe and Drum Corps. The Citadel Military College of South Carolina always brings the best. Well done. GO DAWGS!!!
Too bad they couldn't stay in step
When you hear and see this in person it is utterly heart wrenching in a positive way
❤
♥️♥️♥️♥️ to Scotland 🏴 from the 🇺🇸 those bagpipes & drums hit the soul. 🏴
I'm English & it gives me goosebumps. I think any bagpipes played in front of any Britain, just fills one with awe & pride 😅
My wife and I had the honor of seeing the Tattoo in person last week. What an amazing sound and show! Well done to all the performers and to the festival staff!
I heard the pride of my Scottish ancestors! May the pipes play until Our time is done!
Oh yes! Goosebumps!! Love Scotland! Love from Sweden 🇸🇪
I'm a Canadian married into a Scottish clan. I was fortunate to visit Edinburgh in 1997 and had a fantastiic experience watching the EdinburghTattoo what a marvelous spectacle. "Whoa be the man who hears the pipes and was nae born a Scotsman" I Love Scotland. "If it's nae Scottish its crrrap! 😂😂
I was born in Toronto in 1931, my parents ( Aberdonian) we left Toronto to go back to Aberdeen due to the depression. I was 4 yrs. then. We lived there through WW2. I moved to Coventry with my Gordon Highlander Husband( Aberdonian) My parents moved back to Canada, my hip is and & I came back to Toronto on the Queen Mary on Dec.19/55 landing in N/Y, then on to T.O.
My heart is still in Aberdeen. I took my husband’s ashes back in
2003..At 93 yrs. I am loving this video, I have been to Edinburgh, not the Tattoo sadly. Love Scotland the Brave!🏴🇨🇦👍🏻Cheers.🙋♀️
As an Appalachian American and US LRS Airborne Veteran . I weep with pride every time. Long Live Scotland 🏴
As an Appalachian there's a very high probability that your people came from Scotland.
We all "feel it" when we hear the pipes played well.
Respect from USA
Deep respect
Get your flag away from our song princess
The best little country in the world 🏴
Actually, Switzerland scores a lot higher on education, economy, trust in politicians, healthcare, etc, but I have to admit that the pipes and drums beat the alpine horn every day of the week and twice on Sundays.
@@peterpluim7912. Yeah and a tunnocks caramel wafer is better than a toblerone
@@James-yl1ox I hate to admit it but there is almost nothing Swiss anymore about Toblerone. It is owned by the American conglomerate Mondelez and the production has almost completely moved to Bratislava so the packaging lost the “made in Switzerland” label. Sic transit Gloria Mundi. :))
👍🏴
My dad loved the Scottish pipes and bands "he used to take me to Bellahouston Park in Glasgow too watch and listen to all the bands from all over the world playing and it was amazing and we would Smile at each other and the hairs on my neck would stand up, "My Dad is Dead now but i I think of him all the time 'obviously' when i listen to Good Scottish Sounds like this and he was a Proud Irishman' "God bless my Dad and God bless Scotland and Ireland ❤❤💚💚
My mother was from Edinburgh and married our American father. My family is very proud to be half Scottish and carry on the traditions ❤
I’m from the US. We had the honor of seeing the Tattoo in 1992. So awe inspiring! We don’t recall the US bands being a part of the ceremony, but maybe that’s because we’re old. 😊 Would love to go back to Scotland to visit our friends there and see the Tattoo once again. 💙🏴💙
United in music and symbolism. One military force with one aim.
I am a 7th generation native of Tennessee of Scot-Irish, German-Dutch, Cherokee-Welsh decent, and THIS WAS SO BREATHTAKING AND BEAUTIFUL!
Did you just throw a bunch of darts at a map and decide that's where you were from..?
I am an American and my heart swells listening to this.❤
This really gives me goosebumps and a tear since Scotland passed by❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍👍AMAZING👍👍👍!!!!!!
