Honestly I find bagpipes to be one of life's great mysteries. The sound itself they make is just ugly noise, and yet when played like this it's incredibly beautiful
I'm deployed right now, i haven't been here long, but listening to this song makes me remember the soldiers that have come before me and gave their lives for everything that is good in this world. I am proud to continue there brave work.
Long live the Scots, I may not be fully scottish but I take my ancestory very seriously. And as a Canadian I respect what the Scots have done for Canada: in Military, Politics, and Industry, and Education
"When they come a wull staun ma groon Staun ma groon al nae be afraid." Spoken like a true hero! R.I.P Sgt. Mackenzie. Great Song and video Ragdoll keep up the amazing work!
The first time I heard this, I knew it was Gaelic. I had no idea how powerful it was. As a member of the Clan Dhomhnuill, any thing of this magnitude make my chest swell and my eyes water. Thank you for the posting, Slainte!!!
This song has a lot of meaning to my family and me. A lot of my mom's clan (McPhail) were killed in WWI and this song is one of the reasons why I joined the marines.
Joseph MacKenzie wrote the haunting lament after the death of his wife, Christine, and in memory of his great-grandfather, Charles Stuart MacKenzie, a sergeant in the Seaforth Highlanders, who along with hundreds of his brothers-in-arms from the Elgin-Rothes area in Moray, Scotland went to fight in the Great War. Sergeant MacKenzie was bayoneted to death at the age of 35, while defending one of his badly injured fellow soldiers in the hand-to-hand fighting of the trenches.

my grandad was scots guard desert rat ,the stories he told me as a scotsman that would break into arabic as he spent so long in the hospital in alexandria that he learnt the home speak!were terrifying but he could make anything beautiful ,like this song beautiful!thank u rip george young and sgt macenzie x
This song Makes Me Proud That Bagpipes And Mcenzie Can Do Such A Good Memorial Song I Will Admit I May Be A Guy But I Had A Tear In My Eye Because Of My Dad Who Died In Iraq. Thanks For Uploading This Song Rip Dad.
This is great !! thanks, I love it, you can feel the bravery of this man and can almost see him dying. its so haunting !! well done for finding and sharing this with us x
@Lone06 These problems go back over thousand years of Scottish history. Its not as easy to "put it behind them" or "move on" as one would think. The Brits did some things that may be beyond forgiveness in some minds. Even the inter-clan hatred still lingers for Scots. The MacGregor/Campbell ill will is still felt by many in the Highlands. My father, a MacGregor, to his dying day wouldn't acknowledge the presence of a Campbell. These things go deeper than many can understand..
My grandfather was in France, WWI, he never spoke of it. He had the worst case of stomach ulcers I have heard of that couldn't be treated. Very quiet, black coffee, and smoked Bull Durham.
my grandfather was a dispatch rider on the front line ,his youngest brothe r was gassed at 15 yes 15 and two of his older btrothers were killed my grandmother lost her sistwer execueted as a spy strange aint it how we scots have propped up the auld enemy all this time
Awesome song. To all the men and women who are serving or has served this country I salute you. Airforce, Army, Marines, and Navy, Thank you. God bless the fallen and the famlies who are devasted over the loss of their loved ones I hope someday you find peace.
Heard this song in movie We were soldiers'' 'I am hearing impaired but this comes across as very easily understood and appreciated. I like the vibrations of the bagpipes as I listen. Never served or enlisted. Just a civie, but appreciate the help that others give for common decency and justice.
This song is in Scots, which is a language (some people say it's just a dialect) based off English. It's spoken in the south of Scotland. In the north they speak Scottish Gaelic, which is descended from Old Irish. It's a sister-language to modern Irish. Sincerely, a first generation American learning Irish, the language of his ancestors :)
@crazycelt89 Single pipers were still used during WW2. Lord Lovat had his pipe major, Sgt. Bill Millin playing the pipes as they marched from the British beachhead at Normandy to relieve British paratroops who had captured Pegasus Bridge captured early that morning on D-day.
@DTREMOR333 I got chills and went into a trance. I am only part Scottish, my mother is Cajun and we have Scottish lineage through there (even though we're mostly French.. Scottish culture had a HUGE impact on the Cajuns).. I'm about 1 16th Scot, and I've always felt a strong connection to the Scots

@PompeyFanTommi Amazing be an understatement... this is a magistral work of art... amazinly simple, to the point, just bonecrushing bombastic in it's own...
My Gran passed on to the other side..... after that she told people she went to Florida right off after death. But then the longer she was gone she started to come in with Bagpipes from the Scotland she loved........ if I start hearing bagpipes I know it is her.....
RIP Joe Kilna Mackenzie from Elgin, Morayshire in Scotland, died 28th April 2009. He wrote and sang the song 'Sgt MacKenzie' about his Grandfather (Charles Stuart MacKenzie) who was bayoneted to death during hand to hand fighting in the trenches of WW1 whilst saving a wounded soldier. Donny MacNeil (now with Albannach) played the Pipes.
@DTREMOR333 I'm of mixed ancestry but there is something about the drone of the pipes with the wail of the chanter that just shakes awake that feral bit of the brain that wants to build bonfires against the dark and howl at the sky during a thunderstorm.
@LastPatriot00 thank you. it's people like you and my dad who make our freedom possible. so thank you for what you are doing and please know that you are very much supported.
@Feanic Think its more ceremonial now or when on the march, last time i know the pipes were used in a combat zone was on Sword beach during the Normandy landings on D-Day by Pte Bill Millin he marched back and forth (Kilt and all) while the 1st Commando brigade fought their way ashore, in interviews with German defenders they said they thought he had lost his mind so never bothered to shoot him =D
I live in America and i am a true blooded american, but my heritage dates back to the time of Edward longshanks. I have scottish in my blood and i respect and honor my ancestors who fought for their freedom during that time, These songs are a part of my ancestors history and i intend to make them a part of mine.
this was played at the funeral of one of my friends a serving soldier who paid the ultimate sacrifice gone but not forgotten webby at the going down of the sun and in the morn we will remember them!!!
@DTREMOR333 I'm American, and it gives me chills! It's ironic though, that I whisper the lyrics to myself before I charge the paintball field, in memorandum of course. Another thing I am is a history buff. WWI is one area. Willie McBride is another that I chase.
@hardstyleking200 your father was a fighter and for the greater good he won just like all celts do! be proud and i'm sure he's still watching. God Bless

@truefalse As I understand it, the western highland Scotts originally came from Ireland as part of the Dal Riata sub-kingdom, and Scotti is the original term for the Irish. Lowland Scotts are little different from northern English and spoke the same saxon/viking/\Norman hybrid language.

if you don't tear up even a lil bit over this there is something wrong with you. what a masterfull scene in we were soldiers when they were at the valley of death.
Bless all those fighting for the good of man, doesn't matter what country our from. In my case... RIP all those lost Sailors at sea & land, you will not be forgotten. Semper Fortis.
I was listening to this on the bus coming back from one of my last days at my high school ( I am switching to colledge full time). Suddenely, some kid who still thinks he will get a skating contract stole my zune, listened to a few minutes of this, and then said "This is shit." I punched him straight in the throat.
Rough translation (part) : Lay me down in the cold, cold ground, Where before many more have gone. When they come I will stand my ground, stand my ground, I'll not be afraid. Thoughts of home take away my fear, Sweat and blood hide my vision with tears.

For the first three seconds the sound of the bagpipes whining sounds like the cry of a distant dinosaur, calling from beyond the horizon of time, where a thick shroud of fog veils the world of mesozoic Scotland.
The sound can reach into your soul. Keep dispelling the existance of something at a higher level who is far greater than you will ever hope to be. He/She is very real, too real. Listen to the drone. How can you question?
the sound of the bagpipes would inspire scottish and irish and now Brittish armies into battle. its also an instrument that strikes fear into enemies as its soo loud and carries soo far.
Honestly I find bagpipes to be one of life's great mysteries.
The sound itself they make is just ugly noise, and yet when played like this it's incredibly beautiful
I'm deployed right now, i haven't been here long, but listening to this song makes me remember the soldiers that have come before me and gave their lives for everything that is good in this world. I am proud to continue there brave work.

I was born an Irish Finn, but I've always felt that I have an affinity to my Scottish brethren.
It's the True Celtic lineage,it goes back to the Scotti,the Roman name for the original Scots from Ireland.
As a Murphy/Murchadha living in Wales, celtic lineage speaks volumes to me. This song is spine tingling.
@@MagikMurfi
Yes. But, this isn't a Celtic song.
goosebumps every time I hear this....
This song has a lot of meaning to my family and me. A lot of my mom's clan (McPhail) were killed in WWI and this song is one of the reasons why I joined the marines.

Was she a combat veteran? If not that's a fucking disgrace.
