The voice of an angel ❤❤
One of the most beautiful and poignant songs of all time and beautifully sung by Mary
I’ll never forget my wife getting piped into our wedding day to this. As a Liverpool born and bred boy we didn’t hear much of or appreciate the beauty of the music of bagpipes. My wife Scottish like n we live in Glasgow. N we got married in a hotel in Georgie square for those familiar to Glasgow. the people of Glasgow are just amazing folk! We had all our pictures took around the city centre at well known sites such as cone head! And my wife looking stunning in her wedding dress was just getting clapped by everyone while we was walking about! What a day and that song just brings it all back to me.xxx
I first heard this being played in Buchanan st, Glasgow by a young very talented group of boys called Awkward Family Portraits, and it blew my socks off, and it’s the best I’ve heard.
My father died today. This was one of his favorite songs. The Piper will play it at his funeral. Thank you for posting it! Slainte.
As long as we have U-tube, our songs will always be there,.they will never be forgotten.
Such a beautiful voice.
Stunning performance by red haired Mary.....what a talent this beautiful lady is........simply superb.... simply the best!
Love this version !!!!
I am very proud of my Scottish roots. I am part Scottish part Inuk from Canada. My father immigrated to Canada from Paisley near 40 years ago & married a beautiful Inuk woman (mom) & the rest is history. I love Scotland & feel such a powerful connection to the Highlands everytime I visit ❤
Beautiful song by a beautiful singer.......red haired Mary...simply the best!"..........this lovely talented singer has one of the finest voices I have ever heard......no matter what she sings,it’s always superb....
many cannot understand the emotion the passion and the heart felt yearning the Celts have for their homelands and their people.However many do understand.My gratitude, Mary Duff.
***** Perhaps one day,we will meet.On a windswept island in the Hebrides.If only in spirit, dear friend.

The island referred to is my home island of Benbecula. The tune was composed by my late neighbour Iain MacLachlan.
When based in Edinburgh Castle on Regt Dinner night's a piper would march around the Mess playing this by candlelight.

I love the irish and if theres a war im siding with you guys!
SCOTLANDFOREVER76 Merry Christmas scots lass Greetings from the sunny but chilly S.W U.S ,lets forget the politics & listen to this hauntingly beautiful song ,It brings a longing in the heart of every Celt for their homeland & childhood that is gone forever
t mcgovern I think you maybe being irrational, I'm Irish and I've been to Scotland four or five times now, and I never had any problems with the locals, in fact I found them to be very friendly.
