I'm Irish I've only ever met one Scottish man in tenerife about 6 years ago he had a bald head built like a bull tattooed from head to toe. He walked straight up to me and my girlfriend and ask where we were from when I told him Ireland he wrapped his arm around my neck pulled me into his chest and shouted in my ear we're f##king celts boy don't you forget it. I had the best week with that man every time he met us out he was an absolute gentleman. Moral is never judge a book by the cover and Scottish and Irish people are not that far apart in our culture and values
Caledonia by Dougie MacClean was my father"s favorite songs. We would often listen to Caledonia while we shared a dram, sailing the Great Lakes in the USA. He was a proud Scot by birth. Slainte mhath! Thank you Mr. MacClean for this song.
This is a most amazing version of a wonderful song. The master sharing the song with the youngin's. They change the singer and a bit of the style for the second verse, then a new singer for the third, with Dougie coming back in. The song is so wonderful to begin with, but then to have this group add even more to it is just the best!
I'm not Scottish nor a Celt. I feel this music and cry when I hear and watch it. I keep it inside my heart and soul. Like Dick Gaughan songs and ITM music
I think sometimes you forget where you come from, and what shapes your outlook in life. I've travelled and I've seen different ways of life and cultures, and while I think they all are awesome in their own different ways, and they can all influence your vision of life, sometimes what's best in you is staring you right in the face. That's because it comes from the country that makes you, you! I will always travel far from home, however what I am is because I am Scottish, and Scotland I thank you! This song reminds me of who I am and Mr McLean, I thank you!
But I'm steady thinking my way is clear, And I know What I will do tomorrow, When hands have shaken, and kisses flown, Then I will disappear... Exactly how I feel right now. Could not be more on the spot. Caledonia....I will see you soon. Slàinte!
This is a beautiful song that wraps around your heart. Dougie MacLean is like a proud father as he shares his baby with this passionate group of musicians. Love it. xx
Sometimes I fall asleep humming this song and also wake up hearing it. Wonderful stuff and the song is just brilliant. I am in Ireland and love this song
I'm not a Scot but I love Scotland and I miss her every single day since the day I left. "Let me tell you that I love you, that I think about you all the time. Caledonia, you're calling me..." 💞💓💕💗
Wonderful to hear any time with its nostalgia ever cropping up..the heart yearning will always find utterance -it’s in our nature..and seldom have I felt that as beautifully expressed in song as with Dougie and friends! Máire Morris
RUclips's algorithm is getting better! I listened to this song for the first time about an hour ago, and it's been nonstop Caledonia ever since. I'm certainly not complaining!
it never gets old and no matter done alone or with a group it's still one of my all time favourites and makes me miss my family and the hamelands so much,
i think about home all the time I don't know if you can see The changes that have come over me In these last few days I've been afraid That I might drift away So I've been telling old stories, singing songs That make me think about where I came from And that's the reason why I seem So far away today Oh, but let me tell you that I love you That I think about you all the time Caledonia you're calling me And now I'm going home If I should become a stranger You know that it would make me more than sad Caledonia's been everything I've ever had Oh and I have moved and I've kept on moving Proved the points that I needed proving Lost the friends that I needed losing Found others on the way Oh and I have tried and kept on trying Stolen dreams yes there's no denying I have traveled far with conscience flying Somewhere with the wind Oh, but let me tell you that I love you That I think about you all the time Caledonia you're calling me And now I'm going home If I should become a stranger You know that it would make me more than sad Caledonia's been everything I've ever had Now I'm sitting here before the fire The empty room, the forest choir The flames that could not get any higher They've withered now they've gone But I'm steady thinking my way is clear And I know what I will do tomorrow When the hands are shaken and the kisses flow Then I will disappear Oh, but let me tell you that I love you That I think about you all the time Caledonia you're calling me And now I'm going home If I should become a stranger You know that it would make me more than sad Caledonia's been everything I've ever had
Please Please release this, its so beutiful,Iove the intimacy you have captured and th way it feels that Dougie is sharing his knowledge with the next generation. Good luck guy, you wil go far
Przepiękna piosenka przy której serce rośnie! Super wspaniałe choć bardziej wolę poprzednią wersję. Beautiful song for the heart is growing! Super great but I prefer the previous version.
Aye Jordan 3 great songs, for me Flower of Scotland packs the most punch in limited time at spotting events. Maybe we should be like the Irish and have 2

Dougie wears his heart on his sleeve, such a beautiful song very moving
So beautiful! This is sad and happy, warm and cold, old and young. And deeper than all that put together.
Charlotte. love that! Go well.
I have like 1% scottish in me, but this song makes me cry every time I hear it. my heart aches to be in scotland.❤️
I'm not Scottish nor a Celt. I feel this music and cry when I hear and watch it. I keep it inside my heart and soul. Like Dick Gaughan songs and ITM music
Em, keep it inside, but also let it loose on the world.
Dougie MacLean is so very generous with this very wonderful love song to Scotland.
And I thought only us Irish were the masters of such sessions. Fair play to you. Beautiful.

Come home for the next independence vote Robert, it will be soon.
Come and watch your country gain it's freedom
I've never forgotten my Airdrie roots, fortunately I don't have far to travel ower the border 🏴🏴🏴🏴
It's such a wonderful song. And lovely to hear several voices singing the lead parts... but OMG. Dougie's voice is so distinctive. You can't miss it.
Awe! Be steal me 💚~ Beautiful 🎶Blessings 🙏🏼 Thank You ! 🎶🕊

Love this song, makes me proud to be Scottish
Absolutely even though I'm from Aberdeen haha
Proud of what?
@@wirwerdenverarscht our country idiot.........
But I'm steady thinking my way is clear, And I know What I will do tomorrow, When hands have shaken, and kisses flown, Then I will disappear...
Exactly how I feel right now. Could not be more on the spot.
Caledonia....I will see you soon.
Slàinte!
Dougie's Caledonia has allus remained the best - but this is so glorious. Beautific.
Wow its brilliant being Scottish.
This is a beautiful song that wraps around your heart. Dougie MacLean is like a proud father as he shares his baby with this passionate group of musicians. Love it. xx

The Noise Of Scotland !
Sometimes I fall asleep humming this song and also wake up hearing it.
Wonderful stuff and the song is just brilliant.

Schon ganz lange eines meiner Lieblingslieder und jetzt weiß ich endlich, wer es geschrieben hat! Thank you!
Absolute superb , I cant stop crying when I hear it.
Best version from the writer himself
Love the Celtic Nations.
In my mind it's the best version of Caledonia sung by Dougie himself. the tempo and backing group all superb.
One of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard.
Love this man.A superb singer,songwriter and musician
I'm not a Scot but I love Scotland and I miss her every single day since the day I left. "Let me tell you that I love you, that I think about you all the time. Caledonia, you're calling me..." 💞💓💕💗

Brings a tear to my eye, I lived in SAfrica and know exactly how he felt.
Wonderful to hear any time with its nostalgia ever cropping up..the heart yearning will always find utterance -it’s in our nature..and seldom have I felt that as beautifully expressed in song as with Dougie and friends! Máire Morris

Marvellous song, sung and played brilliantly! Thanks, guys.

Brill. Fisher has been seen in London waiting tables. Understandable....good luck bruh. Keep going
RUclips's algorithm is getting better! I listened to this song for the first time about an hour ago, and it's been nonstop Caledonia ever since. I'm certainly not complaining!
And the chills have been nearly nonstop....
Opens up my heart and longing for being there! Lovely!
Beautiful rendition, Dougie. I hope to have a canine freestyle routine for me & my Sheltie to this someday. Perfect!
Great lyric and top performance. Dougy's smile says it all. Good job boys. love the groove change.
JUST HEARING THI SONG. MY NAME IS CALEDONA!!
it never gets old and no matter done alone or with a group it's still one of my all time favourites and makes me miss my family and the hamelands so much,
Bring a tear to a glass eye
this is perfect !! so so beautiful !!! I'm setting this on an eternal loop here !
Dougie MacLean - Genius, fully deserving of BBC Lifetime award
Love it...I wish I was sitting in the background sipping a beer listening to these fine musicians
i think about home all the time
I don't know if you can see
The changes that have come over me
In these last few days I've been afraid
That I might drift away
So I've been telling old stories, singing songs
That make me think about where I came from
And that's the reason why I seem
So far away today
Oh, but let me tell you that I love you
That I think about you all the time
Caledonia you're calling me
And now I'm going home
If I should become a stranger
You know that it would make me more than sad
Caledonia's been everything
I've ever had
Oh and I have moved and I've kept on moving
Proved the points that I needed proving
Lost the friends that I needed losing
Found others on the way
Oh and I have tried and kept on trying
Stolen dreams yes there's no denying
I have traveled far with conscience flying
Somewhere with the wind
Oh, but let me tell you that I love you
That I think about you all the time
Caledonia you're calling me
And now I'm going home
If I should become a stranger
You know that it would make me more than sad
Caledonia's been everything
I've ever had
Now I'm sitting here before the fire
The empty room, the forest choir
The flames that could not get any higher
They've withered now they've gone
But I'm steady thinking my way is clear
And I know what I will do tomorrow
When the hands are shaken and the kisses flow
Then I will disappear
Oh, but let me tell you that I love you
That I think about you all the time
Caledonia you're calling me
And now I'm going home
If I should become a stranger
You know that it would make me more than sad
Caledonia's been everything
I've ever had
Brings a tear .
Wow great bloody version,so truly talented loons
The best national anthem in the world. America should have one like this if our democracy survives.
Brillant..........
Best song. Greetings from Italy 🇮🇹 ❤
Best version yet!! Now I want Gavin's hat! Poor Dougie had the flu when this was made. Still the best singer ever.

The flower of Scotland ticks all the boxes but there is no denying this song should be the national anthem,either that or Scotland the brave
