    As a Polish Catholic and a friend of Scotland, I bow down to the heroic Jacobites
    Doesn’t matter how their struggle ended, they became heroes and we should remember them!

      The dialect of 'Bonnie Dundee' seems to give Net lyrics transcribers a great deal of trouble. It's as if they can't make sense of what they're writing.
      You'd hardly believe how they render 'brave dunewassails' which most notes on the song helpfully describe as clan soldiery.

    The second and fourth pictures show the battle of Dunkeld, a Jacobite defeat (a few weeks after the costly triumph at Killiecrankie) and the third is of the Boyne, another Jacobite defeat. What about the song The Haughs of Cromdale being added on this channel, though there's no known song for Dunkeld, though of course the Cromdale song is woefully inaccurate; with references to Cromwell and it being a Jacobite victory!! Or what about the song about Glencoe (which was made into a low budget film), to complete the Jacobite song trilogy for 1689-92?

      Eventually her husband was captured by the Jacobite army and the Prince paroled Captain Mackintosh into the custody of his wife, commenting "he could not be in better security, or more honourably treated". She famously greeted him with the words, "Your servant, captain" to which the Prince replied, "your servant, colonel" thereby giving her the nickname by which She would be know for decades to come Colonel Anne.

      I have been trying to get some more Scottish music up, but most likely not from the 89 rising, finding enough content for this one was extremely hard, so I probably finish clearing my current in progress videos before going to try again with the 1680s, same with the James II song that I posted, it’s a really under documented era in film.
