  • lyrics: ---
    Across the street the river runs.
    Down in the gutter life is slipping away.
    Let me still exist in another place,
    Running under cover
    Of a helicopter blade
    The flames are getting higher
    In effigy.
    Burning down the bridges of my memory.
    Love may still be alive
    Somewhere someday
    Where they're downing only deer
    A hundred steel towns away
    Oh, rhythm of my heart
    Is beating like a drum
    With the words "I love you"
    Rolling off my tongue.
    No never will I roam,
    For I know my place is home.
    Where the ocean meets the sky,
    I'll be sailing
    Photographs and kerosene
    Light up my darkness,
    Light it up, light it up.
    I can still feel the touch
    Of your thin blue jeans.
    Running down the alley,
    I've got my eyes all over you, baby
    Oh, baby
    Oh, rhythm of my heart
    Is beating like a drum
    With the words "I love you"
    Rolling off my tongue.
    No never will I roam,
    For I know my place is home.
    Where the ocean meets the sky,
    I'll be sailing
    Oh, yeah
    Oh, I've got lightning in my veins,
    Shifting like the handle
    Of a slot machine.
    Love may still exist
    In another place.
    I'm just yanking back the handle,
    No expression on my face
    Oh, rhythm of my heart
    Is beating like a drum
    With the words "I love you"
    Rolling off my tongue.
    No never will I roam,
    For I know my place is home.
    Where the ocean meets the sky,
    I'll be sailing

    One of the most distinctively Scottish songs ever recorded. Runrig does it better than anyone.

    • @dergrammarfuhrer1901
      @dergrammarfuhrer1901 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I always thought the same, until I found out it was written by an American and a Czech guy and first recorded by a Dutch guy... (René Shuman, who released it in 1986, and TBH, if it wasn't so 80s-sounding his version would also be pretty good)

    • @Starmies4
      @Starmies4 6 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It's correct. Although this song has a real Scottish flavor, Rene Shuman is the original singer. So Loch Lomond is the most distinctively Scottish song.

    I love Donnie and Runrig to bits. This version of the song is just brilliant, and I say that as someone who loves the Rod Stewart rendition too, but there is something about the Runrig treatment that takes it to another level. I never go a week without Runrig Mk 1 in the cd deck of my car.

      Of course you're entitled to your personal opinion, but if you're talking about the Runrig version, it's sung with the Gael's innate sense of emotion...an emotive part of a song does not necessarily have to be the quietest, deep feeling can be stirring.....

    • @DollyDimpley

      @Starmies4 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Liz, yes, I can understand and appreciate that. It's all a matter of taste. But for me (personally) there is a ten class difference. Bruce lacks the power of Munro completely. Besides that, he is not Scottish Me neither, but when I want to listen to a Scottish band that claims to be Scottish, they HAVE to be Scottish. It's like a J-POP band without a Japanese singer, it's no longer a J-POP band (and I love a few J-POP bands also).
