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!
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
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!!!

Bloody marvellous! My mum was a Scot and I inherited a love for Scotland and the skirl of the pipes. Many years ago I lived in the adelaide hills in Australia. Every week on a Sunday evening one of my neighbours played his bagpipes. It echoed thru our valley and brought tears to my eyes as I thought of mum listening to. 🦋🇦🇺
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!
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'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!
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
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.
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

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!
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 ❤

@@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.

Imho, there are far too many Irish-American families with strong ties to Ireland for your attitude to hold sway overall.
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!!!
As an American Veteran I am emotional seeing and hearing the patriotism of my allies! There is something about the pipe and drum that stirs the soul and speaks to something deep inside each of us.
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
Well said my American friend. But as an ex Scottish Soldier I can tell you how it makes you feel.. Like you are The last Scotsman,and victory is on your shoulders..then you are filled with the finest qualities of Scotland, tenaciousness, valour, hardship, pride in your country and populus and too many adjectives to mention..but pure Love..❤️🌍
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!!!

I feel completely at home in Edinburgh, Scotland. Just came back from a visit. My name is Scottish. Family around the Glasgow area. Plus I feel Scottish after my 18 yr old Single Malt, at least once a day.
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.
I’m from New Zealand and my Grandparents migrated there many many moons ago. Grew up with listening to the bagpipes, and Nana’s accent. Long long gone but not forgotten.
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. :))
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!
Scotland the Brave is one of the most beautiful and memoriable national anthems. The music is enchanting and the Piper's and Drummers in their kilts and plumes. Who could not love them all? Yes, Scotland we love you because you are all very Brave. Scotland the Brave the anthem so many ppl adore and love even if we are not Scottish. ❤❤❤

Hope you do a better job than the English have done, good luck to you, from england❤

I am Dutch, 50 years old. The bagpipes have made me emotional since i was a child. It is the most beautiful sound. Everytime i cry. ❤
Same here ! 70 year old American 🇺🇸.
Yep, they'll do that! ❤ 🇦🇺
Peace 🇺🇸☘️
Dutchman you are not alone! I feel the same way! I too am 50 and American!
Amazing bagpipes creating beautiful tunes. Tune in & listen with One Heart & join hands around the World. ❤
Scotland the brave... Goosebumps and tears of joy.
My wife is from Scotland- over the years Ive always loved stuff like this
God bless Scotland! Greetings from Bavaria! 😊
I am French, lived a few years in UK, England and Scotland. I know your people, your history, your culture and your pride. protect it, cherish it and fight for it as your people has always done before. God bless you.
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.
What a wonderful sight, coming from an English Man, you better believe that was a compliment.
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!!!
No finer sound than the bagpipes. Give me goosebumps all the time
As an American Veteran I am emotional seeing and hearing the patriotism of my allies! There is something about the pipe and drum that stirs the soul and speaks to something deep inside each of us.
As an English man, there is something really special about Scotland the Brave and the pipes and drums. I love it
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 stand with the Scottish people and their heritage. Don't let some people in government destroy it.
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
Well said my American friend.
But as an ex Scottish Soldier I can tell you how it makes you feel..
Like you are The last Scotsman,and victory is on your shoulders..then you are filled with the finest qualities of Scotland, tenaciousness, valour, hardship, pride in your country and populus and too many adjectives to mention..but pure Love..❤️🌍
Them bagpipes are just something else !! wow. Fantastic
I am not Scottish, but proud to have Scots in the family! We stick together
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. 🎉
5:15 take back your countries, take back your culture ,take back your pride .
Scotland is one of the most beautiful places Ive ever seen in person.
Love from Germany 💚
As an American with a lot of Scottish ancestry, there’s nothing more amazing than listening to these bagpipe bands. Gives me chills!!! ❤❤❤
Shed lots of tesrs watching this I love my Scotland the pipes sre so moving
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
@@scottmay7862wiz yer mammy no there?
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
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!
I feel completely at home in Edinburgh, Scotland. Just came back from a visit. My name is Scottish. Family around the Glasgow area. Plus I feel Scottish after my 18 yr old Single Malt, at least once a day.
United in music and symbolism. One military force with one aim.
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.
This really gives me goosebumps and a tear since Scotland passed by❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️👍👍👍👍👍AMAZING👍👍👍!!!!!!
I'm German but this makes me feel Scottish. I love your beautiful country, your heritage, landscapes, castles and people. Hope to be back soon!
I’m from New Zealand and my Grandparents migrated there many many moons ago. Grew up with listening to the bagpipes, and Nana’s accent. Long long gone but not forgotten.
❤ I've Scottish heritage, goosebumps galore ❤❤❤ from New Zealand. K
Same here, from across the pond in Oz!
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. :))
👍🏴
Agree 👍 from the island of fortress of Malta ; George Cross , Europe 🇲🇹 🇪🇺
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!
Scotland the Brave is one of the most beautiful and memoriable national anthems. The music is enchanting and the Piper's and Drummers in their kilts and plumes. Who could not love them all? Yes, Scotland we love you because you are all very Brave. Scotland the Brave the anthem so many ppl adore and love even if we are not Scottish. ❤❤❤
Respect from USA
Deep respect
Get your flag away from our song princess
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._
I had the bagpipes play AMAZING GRACE PLAYED AT MY DAUGHTER'S FUNERAL 😢
The epitome of psychological warfare. It works.
It's the four pints of Guinness you drank when you first started hearing the bagpipes. Once they finished you're ready to rumble
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.
Amazing! Impressive! Much love and respect from the Netherlands..
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.
♥️♥️♥️♥️ to Scotland 🏴 from the 🇺🇸 those bagpipes & drums hit the soul. 🏴
A just love being Scottish 🏴🙋♂️🙏 the best people in the world 🌎

Oh yes! Goosebumps!! Love Scotland! Love from Sweden 🇸🇪
I'm English, but the pipes and drums get me every time. A lump in my throat and a tear in the eye! Just amazing ❤❤xx
BRING THOSE BEAUTIFUL SOUNDS..
SO APPRECIATED.

Long live Scotland and all Europeans who cherish their national heritage!!
