Would be more convincing of patriotism if she sang in Gaelic, why did she sing in English? I will tell you why, it is because no one, including the scots and irish would have understood her. Gaelic, Welsh and Latin are dead languages, although there are a few that are trying to keep them alive, a forlorn effort. Mind you English is next, Arabic has taken over!
I'm watching a documentary about the castles in the UK and they talked about the battles where Scotland stood up to King Edward. They earned the bragging rights. Amazing to see them sing this to this day with such pride when those battles happened back in the 1300s

Amy is one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen in my life, and her Scottish accent and her voice... feels like I entered Heaven way before I was supposed to.
As a scottish australian, My grandparents and mother migrated over here from the motherland 50 years ago, What a country, What a bloody national anthem. Proud to be somewhat scottish.
I am originally from Germany but have grown up in Scotland and this makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up every time I hear it because it is just so full of pride and passion. Amazing version as well. Thank you
It needs to be a rugby game against the crazy neighbours. ruclips.net/video/03_IJZQKQTE/видео.html&ab_channel=WorldRugby Wenn Sie wissen wollen, wie die einzelnen Spieler sind, lassen Sie es mich wissen. Es ist schon eine Weile her... MfG aus Edinburgh & Hamburg
I came across this by accident, I have never heard of Amy Macdonald before, absolutely stunning! what a voice, beautiful woman, you could tell just how much pride and passion she has what a anthem!. The best anthem in the world and that is coming from a welshman.
I'm Sudanese, I love Scotland and there are so many things that inspire me in Scotland; the people, the music, the landscape and their tangible accent.❤❤❤
I am Dutch. I love hearing this. In my opinion Welsh (Land of My Fathers) and Scots (Flower of Scotland) had the best national anthems of the world. Grz from Enschede
I'm Welsh-American and I sing Hen Wlad fy Nhadau with immense pride. But any time we play Scotland, I find myself singing along. You have one of the most powerful anthems anywhere.
At the end she’s called: “C’mon Scotland “ ! What a great voice she’s got! Thanks Amy you’re always wonderful as an artist a motivational speaker etc 🙌
As a Canadian, this song/anthem makes me so honoured to be the son of Scottish born parents. My late mother from *Glasgow* & my late father from *Aberdeen.* May they both Forever Rest in Peace.❤️
I am Hungarian so for me our national anthem is the best in the world! But this anthem is absolutely amazing, and it won the second place in my hearth..... Respect from Hungary
Best ever version of "Flower of Scotland" - because Amy sings her heart out with a massive big smile on her face the whole time!, Loving every moment! :) Makes me so proud to be Scottish. She MUST be our champion when we face England in Euro 2021.
Best anthem ever, heard it in Edinburgh for France game they only played a couple notes than let the crowd go a capela... absolute madness crazy goose bumps. Come on Scotland! From a Frenchman.
well there's a truck load of national anthems on RUclips, but this one just has it all - passion, beauty, and a great song for a great nation. Good on em!
I am from no where near Scotland or Europe, and yet to see and hear her sing with so much passion such a beautiful anthem brings a tear to my eyes, I cannot imagine what it feels for those Scots who hear this outside of their country. !Que viva Escocia! One of the many reasons why I love football. I also got here by accident.
I am not Scottish. This is BEAUTIFUL. I cant believe how simple it all is! Those days are past now thats awesome the rest of the world could learn from Scotland a thing or too about proud Edwards
I love that Amy Macdonald is singing, “Flower Of Scotland.” I also love that at many points the crowd drowns her out with the full passion of Scotland. Powerfully beautiful. What an honor to hear. Thank you for sharing. 🕊🌸🏴🌸🕊
The Flower! Soooo geil - Soooo schön! Die Jungs dürfen endlich wieder mal an einem großen Fussball-Turnier (EM 2021) teilnehmen. Es freut mich so sehr für Euch!! Gruss aus Stuttgart.
Absolutely fantastic song, so moving and that's coming from a Welshman! A song that emboldens the human psyche and spirit, a song and rendition of that could send men straight to war! Stunning!
If only outsiders new what Scotland means to us Scots who are still fighting for our recognition in being the nation in which we are! I think back in what our ancestors put up with in England invading our country time after time! We are still fighting for our freedom! Hearing our national song brings goose bumps and pride being a Scot, it can even bring a tear to my eye listening to the crowd at Hamden!
Das ist eine so tolle Hymne, dass ich fast Schotte werden möchte. Aber erst nach der Klimaerwärmung. Bis dahin muss dieses wunderschöne und ergreifende Lied mein Herz erwärmen. Amy Macdonald ist nicht nur eine tolle Sängerin, sie ist auch noch wunderschön.
That‘s absolutely brilliant! I am from Germany and in my eyes there‘s no anthem in the world, which is so emotional and full of passion like the scotish one. When I listen to it, I can see Wiliam Wallace at Sterling with his small and passionable army. Amy is so unbelivieable good and Scotland as well. Come on tartan army! Werder Bremen allez
this song is after wallaces death, Its basically about the Battle of Bannockburn in the war for scottish indenpendece led by King of the scotts Robert the Bruce.
Yours is totally not bad either. Jeszcze Polska nie zginęła... Back in time we had to learn at school to sing the neighhbouring countries anthems around the Baltic and that tune and the words in Finnish really did stay in memory. Sortua ei Puola saata...

Great singing the passion in Amy is so good to see someone sing the national anthem with pride.
I love when I see the little lads knowing and singing the words. Proud young lads.
Her fury, passion and beauty are stunning.
I love this anthem so much. For the past few days, I have had to listen to it several times a day by various performers.
A badass anthem! Its historical reference to proudy King Edward sounds great ! One of my top five anthems in the world!
I'm Welsh-American and I sing Hen Wlad fy Nhadau with immense pride. But any time we play Scotland, I find myself singing along. You have one of the most powerful anthems anywhere.

Such a powerful voice, Amy is really the flower of Scotland. Greets from Germany ✌️
I love how she has a microphone and is still just another singer in the background!!
Amy is a real Patriot, Beautiful Scotland!
I think this is the best recording of the anthem, simply awesome!
Goosebumps and im a Canadian with Scottish heritage. This is beautiful.
Such energy and passion combined with that stunning voice! Thank you Amy MacDonald.
Chaque fois que je l’écoute j’ai les larmes aux yeux tellement c’est émouvant….

I am French but Flower of Scotland is always such a delightful to hear. So powerful and emotional. Amy McDonald is amazing. So amazing 💖
So is the French national anthem. I am English but I sing Flower of Scotland and La Marseillaise whenever I hear them.
2 songs that stir the heart.

Greatest ever rendition of Flower of Scotland. God bless Amy!
I'm Italian and I love my anthem, but Flower Scotland is not my favourite national anthem... is one of my favourite song in general
Such a beautiful song/Greetings from Sweden
Best ever version of "Flower of Scotland" - because Amy sings her heart out with a massive big smile on her face the whole time!, Loving every moment! :)
Makes me so proud to be Scottish.
She MUST be our champion when we face England in Euro 2021.
I just love the ‘COME ON SCOTLAND!’ at the end. That is what I call PASSION!
I'm not even from Scotland... But this has to be objectively one of the most beautiful anthems in the world.
It's just depicts the hatred of the supposedly English rulers, actually Norman, but why spoil good propaganda?
Best anthem ever, heard it in Edinburgh for France game they only played a couple notes than let the crowd go a capela... absolute madness crazy goose bumps.
Come on Scotland! From a Frenchman.

And we love you too. Ps will you marry me?.I'll do the dishes and the hoovering and the dusting whilst you are lying there watching T.V??? Eh?
This is amazing. Brings a tear to the eye
What I love about this anthem is that is not saying that they are the best... Love from Romania
