“Will you dance and return to the island of the young” is based on Gaelic mythology of going to Tìr nan Òg (the land of the young), while it also reflects the vibrant atmosphere of the western highlands and islands during summer.
Video: Written, Directed and Made by Dòl Eoin MacKinnon
Song by: Macphail/Robertson
Poem: Fr Allan McDonald
Ged a gheibhinn-sa mo thagha
B' e mo rogha den Eòrpa
Àite tuinidh an cois na tuinne
An Eilean grinn na h-Òige;
Should I ever get my choice
My preference in the whole of Europe would be
A dwelling-place by the waves
In the lovely Isle of Youth;

I felt in love with this song so badly. It makes me miss something I never met. I’m from Switzerland and found it by accident on RUclips and I listen to it nearly every time in the car. I started to watch documentaries about Scotland and now I want to travel to this beautiful country and learn more about its culture after university. All because of this song.😍
Scotland is certainly worth a first visit (when it‘s safe and sensible to travel again, at least). And in most cases, „the first visit“ will not be the only visit you‘ll make!
We will return there when luck, health and travel conditions allow it…
Gods Country,
You will truly love our land Elodie and love our Culture and the music and the Scottish Folks that will give you a warm welcome .
@@guyro3373 or your first visit will be your last visit, as you'll never leave and make Scotland your home.
@@stevenfairlie3407 In most cases, while I like the sentiment, that is unlikely - unless you move there directly with a contract ;-). But yes, we will go there again, time (and money, and regulations, ...) permitting!
Skipinnish are amazing. Every song gets into my blood. I can't stop listening to them. No one comes anywhere near them for quality. Vocals, instrumentals and video clips are beyond belief!!!!❤️❤️❤️🇦🇺
This is the kind of bands we should have on telly at New Year, not crappy pop bands!!
I agree wae ya.
I randomly discover Skipinnish through Spotify and omg I didn't realize I miss a home I've never been before ! Beautiful music !
Come to Scotland! You'll be at hame; it's everyone's hame; we'll make you feel at hame! This is the first time I've heard Skipinnish and I've been Scottish all my years. I came across it because I was listening to Alistair McDonald tunes. I'm updating my playlist tomorrow
This singer from Skippinish is now in a band called Tide Lines - also very good 👍
such a beautiful way to describe that feeling Steve
I've been a Runrig fan for 30 years and have just discovered Skipinnish. Fabulous music and love the videos. Cheers from an Aussie with Scottish heritage.
After watching rubbish on the other channels at Hogmaney, I turned over to Alba and could not believe what I was seeing and hearing. A real Scottish ceilidh, it was fantastic; great singers and musicians but I was really impressed with Skipinnish who I have never heard before. What a great band, I can't wait to get their records (age thing).
Dave you better get to Inverness to see them 22
Why can't I live in stornaway with my grandma 😭😭😢😢🏴
Because they've allocated all the empty properties to the R.O.W. Bravo SNP bullsh...
Crying over how proud to be scottish this makes me
I’m polish and I’ve lived in Scotland for all of my life (since I was 2) and my friends always play your songs and I love them 😂
I love in Scotland
i'm listening to this song for a school assignment but little do my teachers know that i will now be listening to this on repeat for the rest of the day
edit: i mean the rest of the week, i can't stop
Just had the "3 on the bund" - version on repeat and came to this, looking for the lyrics 👍
Great song - and lovely video by DolEoin MacKinnon!
Me and my Bro fell in love with GBS after hearing this song. We went to Toronto to see them..
Didn’t realise it was a cover…😮
We then travelled from Aberdeenshire to the Real Deal for the 30th anniversary (think we met folks in the Pineapple pub….?)
Anyway, as the saying goes, “Oysterband are the Best Band you’ve never heard of…)
Class act lads (and June), may yer lums always reek…! ❤
Such a great tune and wonderful lyrics - as an ex-pat Scot and granddad myself it has truly brought tears to my eyes. Skipinnish = brilliant!
Scotland. Beautiful place and people. Warm and friendly.
no we're no
Warm no but friendly maybe
I live in Scotland its never warm but people are very friendly :)
Pal have ye been to Glasgow
And bad for midges mate especially in the west coast
Summer time long years ago
I always will remember
Just a boy who didnt knowThat those days would never die
Oh I recall the island girl
Her heart was still unbroken
And still i hear the pipers skerral
In the summer island sky
Will ye dance and return to the island of the young
Will ye dance untill the dawn until the rising of the sun
Will ye dance and return to the island of the young
Will ye dance untill the dawn until the rising of the sun
Bluest eyes theres ever been
Like sunshine on the ocean
Sweetest smile i've ever seen
And her black (?) hair
And the golden Hebrides
We danced until the morning
And felt the warm southern breeze
In the summer island air
Will ye dance and return to the island of the young
Will ye dance untill the dawn until the rising of the sun
Will ye dance and return to the island of the young
Will ye dance untill the dawn until the rising of the sun
I've walked this road for many years
And wisdoms often failed me
Looking back now through the tears
Those days will never die
Oh and when we're old and grey
Our hearts too often broken
We'll see again those summer days
And the summer island air
Will ye dance and return to the island of the young
Will ye dance untill the dawn until the rising of the sun
Will ye dance and return to the island of the young
Will ye dance untill the dawn until the rising of the sun
Will ye dance and return to the island of the young
Will ye dance untill the dawn until the rising of the sun 2 Favoritess Skipinnish
jossel61 Thanks! By the way, the (?) is "armada"
armada refers to black hair... the spanish armada.. do i need to exlain further? x.
seonaid morrison you could say how they were rumoured to have 'known' some of the island girls leading to them having armada black hair.
But its not necessary lol
“Skirl”! Like what pipes do ;)
The most brilliant lyrics I have heard in years. First seen on Alba Hogmanay show 2015/16. Robert Robertson has the most fantastic voice.
The first time I watched this, I couldn't finish watching it for crying. Beautiful song.
Sarah Coleman I cried too because it’s my BFFs favourite song and she died she was only nine 😭❤️😭❤️😭
Beautiful powerful music, extremely uplifting. I have for many years had a great respect for the Scots as a tough fighting people with a hard history and it brings to light the old biblical adage "out of the strong came forth sweetness". Fantastic group.
Anyone else get reminded of a certain time from this song? My best memory... It was summer 2016, I got myself a summer job at Loch Earn in a caravan site. Incredible sights in the second half of the journey from Glasgow to the loch near Comrie. Anyway, my mate Mark and I were up staying in the caravan since work was too far for daily travel. The signal for mobile or internet was rather non-existent, so one warm evening we decided to head to the Co-op in Crieff to stock up on food and in the meantime get a phone signal. The only radio frequency that the car picked up was BBC Gaelic. So, we heard a bit of this song, without thinking about it we skipped looking for another radio station. Not a moment later, when our tired brains processed the information, we looked at each other and went 'turn aht fuckin back oan, aht sounded bangin!'. Haha! We even spent a half an hour trying to find out the title of the song to get it downloaded, with success we played it over and over having beers and rejoicing in memories. And from there we discovered Skipinnish, and thus have another favourite artist.
From this old Appalachian youngster sing , sing sing. Love it.
Something in my eye.
Just found this couple days ago. Play it on my Harley blue tooth. Great song.
Sheer brilliance
The song is beautiful Mary Kinsella Ireland
Sorry Guys I have just discovered you, WOW as a true Scotsman myself, well with a name like Craig Alexander McIntosh you don't get much more Scottish than that, I am so proud of what you are achieving, you truly capture the spirit of being Scottish.
Roberts voice is brillant
Gentlemen, YOU have brought tears to my eyes. Absolutely spectacular. Know that you have a fan here in America!

If I have been feeling a bit down this last 9 months, I watch and listen to this, suddenly everything is brighter and better.
Love this song, its kept my sprit alive during some dark days recently. I don`t need the drink or pills from the doctor.
A Skipinnish prescription works every time, live 3 miles from Bught Park, I will be there in July, love you guys.
love how many of your songs are about Tir Na Nog. I absolutely love the story of Oisin and this song along with land Below the Waves do the old tale justice - Love it
This song reminds me of my teenage years growing up on Isle of Bute. We had beachpartys every summer and would take my burd out on the motorbike with tent and enjoy freedom all weekend.
Now im 48 and living on mainland i wish i could go back to those days.
Still got the motorbike and im refusing to act old lol.
Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. Thank you.
Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant.

The accordion player is a big lad
Is amazing how few songs can go straight deep in your soul, like they were a message from the past. @Skipinnish 's THE ISLAND is surely one of them. Wonderful song!
Beautiful song reminds me of my time with a little french ladie .......
I love this song and its visualisation. Endless love and a modern interpretation of old legends (call it Styx, Swan of Tuonela or whatever is your culture). Thank you
It is the music of my land,our land ,the land of the SCOTS. SAOR ALBA GU BRATH

What a powerful, vibrant piece and what a voice! I know Tiree and this reminds me of it, drawing me back there. Meall do naigheachd a' bhalaich!
Scotland rocks. This is just brilliant. And so is "Walking on the Waves"...
What a fun song. Tough to top the Hebrides! Go Skipinnish....

It sounds too lovely and passes too quickly.
Finnian McGurk has been doing this kind of stuff for years. This is excellent too! xx

Amazing. He has almost the same voice as the lead singer of Tide Lines, but it's obviously a different guy. I guess just similar style.
Wow - just wow. This music is like a combination of the best of Altan and Horslips -- if they had been in Scotland instead of Ireland. Tá sibh go h-An-Mhaith!
Good song
i love as its Eriskay and my family he takes by the hand xx
The lads are to be hear in Oban in a pub
My best friend forever loved this song it’s her favourite but sadly she passed away recently 😭😥 R.I.P Kayla ❤️😭❤️😭❤️😭❤️😭
