Scottish are very proud people, we take pride in our country and it’s history
How can anyone be personally proud of being randomly born on a spot of land with imaginary borders named by someone then never met? Being proud of personal achievements I can understand, but being born somewhere isn´t an achievment although winning the sperm race probably is.
Every time I hear this song puts the hairs on my body up . Proud to be Scottish 🏴
This is the song we play at the end of wedding s , party’s, and at the new year in Scotland 🏴 it really gets every one going at the end of the night ! It should be the national anthem!
It is if it was sang right half the bloody words Is missing
Highland Cathedral for me!
Yup, it's like the standard end-of-party sesh tune around these parts. I always think of Billy Connolly when he done that skit about Scottish folk getting so emotional singing about being far away from the homeland, but they could still actually be here! 😂
@@Rebornagain101 That's because it is an anthem to the band.
Best part of the weddings 😂🏴
The history of the song (roughly). Two Scottish soldiers in an English prison after the Battle of Culloden. Their captors decide to execute one and release the other in order to go home and tell of their defeat and punishment. So "You'll take the high road" is referring to the released man, while "I'll take the low road" refers to the man about to be executed. The "low road" is alluding to him being buried, while his spirit returns to the bonnie bonnie banks of Loch Lomond, where he and his true love used to roam.
Scots are very patriotic, We've never forgotten our forefathers... Their blood is in our hearts forevermore!!!!!
Your government, however is not 😢
@@TheMollyPitchers Hasn't been the case since Salmond. I liked him, he had Scotland and only Scotland and our people in his heart but then Salmond (left wing) and now a foreigner (extreme left wing), our nation has went to shit.

There is no country on this planet that comes close the the passion and pride of Scottish people. It’s hard to explain but it’s in the mountains, hills, lochs and valleys of this fabulous most beautiful country in the world.
This song is accredited to a Highland clansman of Clan Macfarlane, Jacobite prisoner of the English (following the failed rebellion of 1745). He is imprisoned in a hulk on the banks of the Tyne in N.E. England. The navy used to beach their old wooden warships, when they were of no more use, on the banks of river estuaries, at high tide. Initially a use would be found for them (in this case as a prison ship). They remained beached there until they fell apart. In Celtic myth, the dead can move from place to place beneath the ground (the Low Road) while the living move (of course) above ground (the High Road). The song is a lament. In it, the prisoner knows that death is close and is singing his farewells to his true-love, promising to meet her one last time, on the Banks of Loch Lomond, in a place where they used to meet.
Yeah, great performance, I was there all those years ago - one of the fifty thousand who attended. I don't suppose you've ever heard of them, partially because of an early BBC decision to limit their airplay due to their nationalist/Scottish lyrics. Keyboard player is currently a member of parliament for the SNP at Westminster. Didn't stop them though, they had a long and successful career and retired only recently.
Andy I never knew that the keyboard player was in Westminster.
Nice post, however to say they wouldn't have heard of them due to BBC limiting them is all sorts of parnoid stupidity. They wouldn't have heard of them as they are American, so many British bands as a whole didn't get famous in the states, as for the BBC paranoia? Laughable, sort yourself out

@@mairiconnell6282 Peter Wishart was on keyboards.
@@andyallan2909 Thank you so very much I can sleep now!!! lol
I would like to say, as an English man who has lived in Scotland for seven years now, that this song gave me goosebumps AND made me feel emotional and proud of Scotland.....even though I was born and raised in London.
All I can add is that I love this beautiful land and the people.
My wife and I married in Inveraray a few years after I proposed to her beside Glencoe Lochan, and we have always been welcomed wherever we have gone.
The Scots are passionate, tough, kind, proud, and very very funny and down to earth....and that passion shines through in this video. 😊
Hi Sean. Got robbed at the Inveraray hotel for soup and a sandwich for two at £34 plus a shady and wine at £11. I felt I was robbed but ended up in the jail lol.
@@johnhenry7214
Lol....Well they are famous for being canny 😁
This comment actually made me emotional - the bit about us Scots touched my soul. Cheers Englishman 👍
@@khsmith6242
My pleasure…..It came from the heart.
The best band in the world. This song definitely gets everybody of all ages in Scotland 🏴🥃. Real music
That’s a stretch now. Good band. Good song
I'm Scottish and this gives me all the tingles! So many amazing memories at weddings, clubs, parties etc and finishing the night with this song. Everyone is dancing and singing... awesome!!!
I live in Balloch, I wish I was around to be there. I', the same, it gives me goosebumps when I hear it.
When I get married this is the part I'm looking forward to most, everyone at the reception In a large circle holding hands closing and widening the circle whilst singing this song ..... nothing makes me more patriotic than this song, I fucking adore it ... other than flower of Scotland ofcourse 😂🏴
Let’s hope it’s the right version
The gig just not far from Glasgow was runrig from the bonnie Highlands of Scotland sadly they are now not anymore we where there that day, donnie munro now has his own band a Canadian called Bruce normally took over, sadly 😢 Bruce passed away in Canada of that horrible disease cancer, 😢 now he is at peace and out of pain condolences 🙏 to his wife and children. Isabelle and sandy mackenzie from the Highlands of Scotland
One of the best bands ever to come out of Scotland. I never get fed up hearing any Runrig song even if its in Gaelic. Every album has a show stopper on it.. Thank you for reacting to the FANTASTIC Runrig..
I have been learning gaelic for years and can not still translate runrig lyrics
I gave upon American schools
The kids were asked to name a Gaelic country my son wrote Scotland
And the teacher marked it wrong.
It’s so nice to see people from other countries listening to this tune it’s a Scottish staple! 🏴❤️
Never clicked so fast! Practically a National Anthem over here. 😁 You know you have made it to the end of a Scottish wedding if you hear this song, so many good memories.
I can tell you how good it was as I was there. Runrig sang this at the end of all their concerts. It was extra special as this gig was in Balloch Castle Country Park in Loch Lomond. Best concert I've ever attended ❤️
I was there too. I was photographing it.
Jealous of the pair of you! What a great band
Did you become a Runrig Backing singer that night, remember the cd that came out with all our names on it . I still have mine .
was there too, was a brilliant day listening to Capercaille, The Big Dish, Wolfstone and Runrig, there were two other bands there that day, but have forgotten who, bought the Big Wheel EP and when I started the Army Apprentice College in Chepstow, my barrack room filled up with Scots lads who were in training for the Royal Engineers always came down to listen and have a few beers, don't ask because most of us were under 18 at the time, Was speaking to Calum Munro, Donnies lad and he said it was best concert he went to,
Margaret I was there too!!
I'm a proud Scot and I always get goosebumps every time I listen to this! 🏴
there aint a scot that dont know this song aff by heart
it is always the last song played at weddings, the last dance for the bride and groom, last song of new year. In most pubs and night clubs in scotland its always the last song played before closing, and will get everyone on the dance floor and it brings people together as when its played you will form groups to dance to it with complete strangers. Its our 2nd national anthem next to flower of scotland.
Even as an Englishman I was brought up on this beautiful song. And Loch Lomond itself is stunningly beautiful; it is the largest lake by surface area on the island of Great Britain, going from the Scottish Lowlands ( near Balloch) to the Highlands. It really has "bonnie banks" and "bonnie braes" (hillslopes).
Runrig were (still are?) a deservedly successful group. They're called, I believe, after a traditional method of agriculture.
Loch Lomond is not a lake. The only lake in Scotland is the Lake of Menteith
At 6:31 they sing in Scottish Gaelic, Ho, ho mo leannan Ho mo leannan bhoidheach
which translates as
Oh, my wee bairn, (Oh my little child)
Oh my wee bonny bairn (oh my little, beautiful child)
Leannan could also be used as sweetheart.
Here's roughly how it's pronouced
hoe hoe moe lahn anne
hoe hoe moe lahn anne woy och
Great to see a review like this of a song all of us Scots grew up singing and smiling to.
i thought it was "hey my darlin" my nan used to sing similar while waulking
This concert must be 30 years old, but still fantastic.
1991 mate
I was in that crowd and I have been lucky enough to have seen Runrig many times and even got to see the last concert at Stirling Castle. I also remember spending a very drunken night with them in Germany around 1988/89.
Oh please remember that English is their second language, they are Gaelic speakers.
I was at the castle too. The first night I worked up there, the last night I took my wife. We had a ball.
Runrig are incredible and this lady is gorgeous 😍
I live 5 minutes from the banks of Loch Lomond. This song is so amazing and is so loved here in Scotland. Thanks for playing it 🙂 ☺️
Me too. I used to go sledding in Balloch Park in the 70's.
Sad lyrics, sad story. But what a great perforance! Thank you for bringing this one up. Check the background on the net. Greetings from Jonas Gothenburg Sweden.
I'm glad you guys enjoyed it! This is one of my all time favorite ballads. And I know that you guys like a wide variety of music, so I figured you would dig it as well.
Welcome tae 🏴 Hunterz. Fair stirs the emotions, right 😎
Never expected to see this on your channel, keep up the entertainment.
Cant believe you reacted to Loch Lomond (or Lick Lamand as you say ;-)) You guys must be the hardest working reactors out there. Has anyone mentioned that this is played at the end of pretty much every party in Scotland???!!?/
Must have heard this song a million times. My parent are huge Runrig fans, my mum actually used to sing in Gaelic choirs with the lead singer.
This song is played at the end of every wedding here in Scotland and every New Year’s Eve. Always gets everyone on the dance floor
Mum...such a southern English word crept into Scotland through TV.
I remember mammy used as a kid
I worked in the National Park at Balloch Castle where the concert took place, it was said a 100,000 attended but police say it was more like 500,000 as people gathered across the Loch on the hills it was head in Glasgow 23 miles away my home town by residents. Biggest concert ever.
The Scot’s invented the mosh pit! See any Scottish crowd when this song comes on. Join in or run for cover cause it’s going to get rowdy! 🏴🏴🏴😂😂
So cool, this is where I live (Balloch). My parents were at this concert.
67 year old Australian man who lived in Scotland during this time here, met and married the love of my life and was up on the hill at this concert with her. Fabulous and brilliant. That was just the last song of an epic performance. Runrig has been ripped off around the world their music was so good. Just like Farnham and Jimmy Barnes (also from Glasgow). Glad you are giving them a platform again. I was also at a number of the performances at "The Barrows" in Glasgow. check them out.
I grew up with Runrig and had the pleasure of going to one of their concerts in the early 1990's. This is a song that every proud Scot knows well, no matter what their age! It would be interesting to see a reaction to one of their more recent songs when Bruce Guthro became the lead vocalist.
Our national anthem....well it should be. Absolutely incredible song that always brings the feels
Go to any Scottish wedding and wait til the end, the place explodes with this song.
I recommend Flower of the West and Running to the Light, both live. The latter was the wake-up call of Captain Laurel Clark, who was killed in the Columbia shuttle disaster. Remarkably her CD was recovered from the debris and given to her family, who gave it to the band.
I'm from Balloch on the banks of Loch Lomond. This song is sung at the end of every party and social event in Scotland, but being from Loch Lomond makes it extra special! I was four when this concert happened and my parents couldn't get babysitters so they couldn't go even though they were both massive Runrig fans! I've met two members of the band though - Donnie Munro and Pete Wishart.
I'm from Dumbarton but was born in the Vale. I grew up going sledding in Balloch Park.
When AC/DC play in Scotland, Angus always plays this before highway to hell in the encore.
I don't think there is a bad version of this massive anthem anywhere but for me, when the Scottish football fans sing this loud and proud at our National stadium, Hampden Park in Glasgow at home games, there is no better atmosphere!!
Brilliant reaction, this song is a staple of many a Scottish wedding at the end of the night. Saw Runrig a few years back at Edinburgh Castle, they were fantastic 🥰🏴
This is why I love my country! 🏴🏴🏴
As a Scotsman it makes me cry happily
Really great that a younger generation are appreciating runrig it's a Scottish staple at any event
All Scots are touched by this, great reaction.
Loved your reaction to Runrig and ‘Loch Lomomd’! Runrig was one of the very first bands I ever saw , in the days when they played tiny village halls. Brilliant then and always have been. Donnie Munro has such an amazing voice - the whole band is really tight. 🏴💙🏴💙
Theres a divide in scotland...and this song shows that quite perfectly imo... our wee nation will always try breakout from oppresion even though half of us aid that oppresion.
Looks like about 40,000 pissed Scottish people! Now that’s a party 🤞🏻🤣👍🏻
It was! An amazing gig, was near the front and looked back up towards the castle and it just looked the ground was moving.
That song was played at my wedding (like most Scottish people) in Edinburgh. Always gets people bouncing. I was born about 2 miles from Loch Lomond and spent my younger days in Balloch pubs. Great place, good times.
It holds a very special place in every Scots heart.
Malcolm Jones is one of the best guitar-players! Donnie Munro has such a beatiful voice! 👍👍
I only saw Runrig live once, in 2009, not long after Malcolm had recovered from his heart attack. I was so glad he was able to return. I always thought it a shame to have missed Donnie Munro, but to me to have missed out on seeing Malcolm perform in the band would have been an even bigger loss. A hugely underrated talent.
I was there photographing it. It was such a feeling to be there with around 40,000 folk singing along
Every thing that comes out of Scotland 🏴 is amazing
Apart from Scots Unionists Low Life Judas Traitor Snakes who voted against their own country in 2014 to against it to become a independent country and those fakers still want SCOTLAND to be controlled by a Right Wing Fascist little Englands Govt!! FACT!!
Unless it's name is Sturgeon
There’s no feeling like being Scottish 🏴 best way I can find to explain it
I wasn’t born in Scotland
Scotland was born in me 😃 Slandj 🥃🏴
You're not even Scottish if you don't know all the words to this song 🏴 last song at my wedding and every other wedding in this country, guaranteed everyone will be on the floor in a circle with the bride and groom in the middle. Great reaction!
Had this played at my fathers funeral, last November as the entrance music. He was a professional entertainer all his life and knew this song in its original version. I’m sure he’d have loved Runrig’s version.
The lady astronaut who got killed on the space shuttle that exploded had a runrig tape with Her at the time.Runrig was her and her husbands favourite band.Came over here quite a lot.
And the tape survived
Guys, I was there Midsummers day 1991. Scottish to the core but yet this brings me to tears every time I hear it. Scotland wants this as the new national anthem. Love your reaction, memorial day, respect for the fallen.
I was at the gig in 91, some great Scottish bands were present, but brought up seeing Runrig play in Portree on the Isle of Skye, I saw them in small village halls,but this was a blast, it was beautiful day and Ihad to walk the last four miles to Balloch country park from the main Glasgow to Skye road as traffic was backed up
The audience would know this song well not just because it's a traditional one that's been around for a long time, but also as Runrig played it at the end of most concerts.
I'm a huge Runrig fan. They were going for 45 years. Please do some more reactions by them.
I was at this concert 😎✌️🏴🏴
Not a mobile in sight glorious days
Usually here for your metal reactions, but glad to see a classic from my home country, a real new years classic!
"Loch Lomond" tells the story of two Scottish soldiers who were so imprisoned after a battle against the English. One of them was to be executed, while the other was to be set free. According to Celtic legend if someone dies in a foreign land, his spirit will travel to his homeland by "the low road" - the route for the souls of the dead. The dead one would never see his true love again.
It was filmed at Loch Lomond
I think you are now prepaired for MARILLION (with FISH on Vocals!),BIG COUNTRY and SIGUR ROS !!!!
my scottish life is a blast, being from scotland is the best and this song is my childhood imma cry
My wee country is sooo good
Beautiful song we play it every single year to bring in the new year here in Scotland awesome to see you both react if you ever get the chance should visit 🏴
What a voice....stunning
I think her name is Ella Roberts listen to her sing this it spectacular though I do love Runrig from a Scot in Australia
Privileged to say I was at that concert on the banks of Loch Lomond all those years ago.! Nothing will top the atmosphere that day. And the singing voice of Donnie Munro just tops it all off. Fantastic band back in their day. Soar Alba..!
There were 30,000 + fan's there that day. Place was bouncing.🎸🎸🎸🎸
Absolutely bursting wae pride every time I see this.....mon the scots
This tune and Caledonia by Dougie MacLean always brings a tear to my eye and gets my blood pumping.
I was at this concert - F***ing magic!
been in the states 17years this always bring a tear to my eyes evrytime i hear it
Try saying it like this- lock low manned. A song written about captured Scottish soldiers around 1746; Jacobite rebellion. Played at weddings and of course when Scotland play football at Hampden Park.
Knowing every word of this song is almost a definition of Scottishness. I think you caught some of that in your reaction. Nice one! Thank you.
the song came about because after the jacobite uprising in 1746 a jacobite about to be executed was asked if he wanted to say something before death an he say if you take the high road and i take the low road i’ll be in scotland afore yee where me and my true love (scotland) will never meet again on the bonny bonny banks of loch lomand. the atmosphere is amazing at any runrig song. i’ve seen them live several times and unfortunately they’ve split up now. thankyou for your enthusiasm, great review. take care from a proud Scottish girl. 😘🏴👏🏻
Great Reaction.
I Was at This Concert but I was in the Carpark Whilst this was being Played so Missed It. Great to see What I Missed.
The song is about two Jacobite solders who are prisoners, one is getting home and the other to be executed
Loch Lomond (lock lo:mo:nd) Ben Lomond is a hill on one side of the Loch (Road to the Highland starts at Loch Lomond)
The high road is the one the living take above ground , the Low road is the one below, the Low road is the road the dead take.
You need to do some more Runrig. Hearthammer is a great track!
Definitely......skye might just be my favourite though
hearthammer's a great shout
Us Scots are very patriotic and if there's a song like this or the National Anthem being played, we'll go crazy haha! Loved your reaction, I've subscribed x
I am Scottish and hearing that sung with so much pride brings tears to my eyes
I was lucky enough to see runrig live at Edinburgh castle in 2008 I’m sure it was, one of the best live performances I’ve been too 🏴 💙
First concert I ever went to when I was a child. Was amazing
I was there that night, remember looking back up the hill towards the castle and the whole place was dancing ❤
We play this at the end of a Scottish wedding and it’s feckin awesome. I hope you get to experience it one day.
I was there, gives me goosebumps every time I hear it x
I was at this concert. It was the first time i had seen them live, they were amazing. 😃😃
This is one of the most beautiful songs you'll ever hear💙🏴🇬🇧
I ive about 10 mins drive from Loch Lomond and have climbed Ben Lomond. When the sun comes out the park is good for a walk with some great views
Mad that scottish music can be appreciated by all...yhe anthem is a prime example..its boyh melodic and painfully inspiring... i think most scots music is on that spectrum...
Brilliant, Its our second national anthem! And every Scot knows this song! Makes us proud to be Scottish
I'm proud to say, I was in that crowd! What an incredible day that was.
