Also the irony of Bonnie Prince Charlie being born on January 30th, the day his great-grandfather Charles I was executed, and dying in 1788, 100 years after his grandfather James II was deposed from the English throne during the Glorious Revolution.
If it's true that history is written by the victors, it's also true that The Cause can be kept alive by song. This one was well-done - has a raw sound, like soldiers marching. As one branch of my family came to New England in 1620 and another to Boston in 1635, their sentiments would've been on the other side. Compliments to The City Waites.

He made some terrible mistakes which perhaps weren't even deliberate but it is the root of England's problems and the world's problems in the 21st century. I am of course referring to his reversal of the events of 1290.

Beautiful song, i love the cavalier cheekiness of it too
Just 100 years later and it’s “Wha’ll be king but Charlie”
News frae Moidart.

@@olekcholewa8171 Not to mention that the current jacobite claimant is german
@@ivoernstsen7819 Sadly yes.
@@ivoernstsen7819 yes and no, I consider the Stuarts of Castle Stuart as the actual hiers.
A health unto His Majesty! 🏴🇬🇧🍻👑

Best royalist song from the English civil war so far!!!
Gott mitt uns. God save the king.
Nice find!
And new Charlie too!

@@haroldgōdwinessunuthe current royal house is Glücksburg

@@W.M.Pitt1Its still recognizing those pigs as kings.

Same theme from 'Old England Grown New'
Based
I maybe not be monarchist, but this song is banger!
The war without a enemy.
God save the King!
Amen
Dia go an Bhreatain! Ó Eireannach-Mheiriceannach 🇮🇪🇺🇸
Dia agus Tìr.
Èirinn agus Alba gu Bràth!
@@haroldgōdwinessunu ironically, the irish and scots fought on the kings side during this civil war lmao.
@@mojowwwav4357This King tho, wasn't a mass-murdering heretic who abandoned the Catholic faith and his own people.

@@vonbeedle554 The Irish Confederation's flag literally had on it "Vivat Carolus Rex"

Clearly a modern song. Not 17th century English.
Could be a modern version of a Civil War era song.
It's a modernized version of a 17th century song
its a modernized version so people can actually yk, understand it.
nonetheless the lyrics are similar
Same tune as Old England Grown New
I don’t know about the lyrics. But the melody is indeed older and actually predates the time period.
The English Monarchy Used To Have Balls
☠☠☠☠☠☠☠
Now there's another Charlie holding the crown, when will we get rid of the crown entirely?
Never my friend 😂❤ long live the english monarchy
if that day comes, I'll be fighting for old Charlie
Only if the man to replace him is a boss puritan named Oliver.
Never!
@@everrettbreezewood3665Boss Puritan is an oxymoron
Fight for Republicanism and Cromwell!

Bloody Cromwell was a butcher. Even for his time.
The only reason Cromwell won was because the new model army was funded by foreign money-changers….

Dreadful singing
I quite liked it.
Well it's a folk song. It's not supposed to be an operatic performance
