      I dont know if you observe princess Charlotte i think she will be Qeen instead of prince George. She has everything in her characteristics her poise and ready to take charge of herself and family for a start and the more i saw her she takes after her great grandmother for sure shes got what it takes little george is very indearing but hasnt quite got it i reckon a bit like his grandfather the women in that family certainly have it all over the boys i reckon offcourse i could be wrong but somehow i dont think so 🙏🙏🙏🩷🦋🇦🇺🇦🇺🦘🦘🌏💐🕉️☮️💟🌻💯😍prc

I'm a big softie. Plus there's something about bagpipes, maybe it's just my Celtic soul. I'd be willing to bet that anyone who watched that show, and then did a little fact checking, would walk away with respect for her. It was probably the most well cast show in human history whoever was the casting director for that show should win every award in that category. Seventy years, seven months and two days and the woman was on duty every day of it. I feel like the rest of the royals get to enjoy the benefits without the hard part, but Queen Elizabeth II truly worked for it.

We are where we live really, I’m sure her nannies and the staff who took care of her and did things for her all her life were all British. She sounded British she put on a British uniform and served in WWII in the British Women’s service core. All white people probably have British genes or coming from the same beginning of this race be whatever country they eventually started calling themselves. We Americans are a blend of every race but the mostly white people can trace our ancestry to the different European people, I know I’m a blend of Irish, English, Swedish and French. My husband had German, but they called themselves Pennsylvania Dutch because they didn’t want to identify with German and I saw a picture of one ancestor on his dad side that most definitely looked Native American and on his mother’s side the two grandparents immigrated from the French Canadian area and they only spoke French when they first came to America and my husband’s mother only spoke French when she started grade school,she had to learn English so my children are a very mixed ancestry which I think is interesting.

    I am an American and I fell in love with the Queen when I was 7 years old and watched her Coronation on our tiny black and white tv. My mom didn’t watch it with me but my father’s people were English and Irish and his mother looked almost identical to the Queen to me. Wore the pin on her left shoulder of her coat or dress, wore her hats like the Queen, same hairstyle, same thin lips, same lipstick, powder and rouge, she was the same height and body build. It was like seeing my grandmother and when I was young I looked very much like the Queen when she was young. My mom really preferred my brother over me but my mom was of a different ancestry she was Swedish and French so I don’t think she was happy how I looked so much like my paternal grandmothers side. But I really don’t care if she liked my looks or not, I’m okay with myself and I love the British pageantry. I miss the Queen! I also loved horses, I went riding when I was young, the last 30 years we owned horses, we had just 3 and now we are down to just one. I would have loved to have been a friend of the Queen but we had too much age difference and an ocean between us.

    I love this song. When we mention Queen everyone knows who we are talking about. Rightly so, the Queen earned her place in history, and in our hearts.

    Always loved this song from being young and my Dad singing it to me when crossing on a ferry to Skye.

    I’m an American. Texas is my home state. I love my country and have been an anglophile most of my life.
    My Mom went to England & Scotland in ‘88. i went with her in ‘89. I look nothing like her. When she came home she mentioned how while in London prople would smile at her, and be most polite. They would stare at her. We all thought it was because she was a foreigner, and were drawn to her sweet smile, and disposition. She was a pretty lady too. When she & i went in ‘89 i witnessed this behavior too.
    I finally figured out why people reacted to her, and it’s because she looked like she could be a close relative of Her Majesty.
    Mom had black hair, white, smooth skin, and lots of teeth showing when she smiled. She even wore her hair like The Queen.
    She was in her mid 60’s, and very fit. She was always well dressed, but nothing too ornate.
    They were polite to me, but Mom was their focus. i look at my pics from that trip and see the resemblance. 😁

    I hadn't realised I was still sad about THE Queen's passing, until I saw this video... and you're right, they might have removed the word "consort" from Camila's title... THE Queen will always be Elizabeth II

    I loved the Queen dearly and I loved the Skye Boat Song which I sang from the time I was a child. The song has an interesting history. It was composed in the Victorian time when there was an enthusiasm for all things Highland. The song and its original lyrics are about the Jacobite Rising and Bonnie Prince Charlie's escape (highly romanticised) to Skye and then back to France. Robert Louis Stevenson later objected to the lyrics and wrote the ones we are familiar with today "Sing me a song of a lad that is gone...". It is a lovely song and highly evocative and of course Queen Elizabeth loved the Highlands but it is ironic for the song which was composed as a Jacobite anthem is associated with an Anglican Queen.

      @@aa-xg3ct Don't you think it's a question of both/and rather than either/or? Regarding their places of worship, the members of the royal family were both Anglican in England and Presbyterian in Scotland.

      I don't think you can be both ( but what do I know )
      The Queen was just an ordinary member of the church in Scotland, that's a bit different to what her role in England was.@@barbararussell9757

    I think I'll ask for this played at my funeral, this and Amazing Grace, such beautiful songs. We had a piper at my father's funeral. My ancestors were related to the kings of Scotland, so the Queen was my very very distant cousin. My aunt looked just like her! Many people commented how the Queen Mother looked like my Grandma, esp. back in the 1940's. Thanks for this song video!
