The Irish Guards liberated my (Belgian) home town, back in 1944.
#WeWillRemember
Up the Micks my grandad fought in Belgian with the Irish guards.
@@GreenCocanix Utmost Respect for your granddad.
(My late grandfather was in The Netherlands, in April 1945, with the "newly formed" Belgian army" (Brigade Piron"). One thing he told now and then was how their Lt. during a recon patrol at night stepped on a tripwire, which bathed them in lights. He always said, If the Germans had been waiting, he probably would have been killed... and then my father never would have been born, and neither would I... Something like this makes you think...)
Great Story... NEVER FORGET!!!
I LOVE my WHITE BRETHREN!!! Pray for us ALL!!!
My Uncle was in the Irish Guards then.
@@mariahoulihan9483 I salute your uncle and I thank him for his services. QUIS SEPARABIT
As an American, it's so interesting to see how this type of military demonstration goes on and in the background you have people just going about their day. It's cool that it's so much a part of the culture that it's just normal.
As an Irish guardsman it is the best feeling in the world marching behind the pipes and drums.QS
I'm a Soldier of the Portuguese Army and I am in love with your culture, it's beautiful! 💪
Portugal 🇵🇹 our oldest friend 🇬🇧
@@justinboyan573 that's why Portugal lost its empire, small though it was
they are traitors, they serve a foreign queen
Sounding good lads ❤️👍👍👍
From an ex 4th (Bt) royal Irish rangers Dcoy London Irish Rifles Side drummer.☘️ thank you for service and keeping us all safe ☘️👍👍👍👍
I had 4 uncles in The Irish Guards,soooo proud❤
Just a excellent video and irish bagpipes 💯💚
i still find it heart warming watching this cause i get to see my dad :3
as an Englishman i love to listen to the pipes and drums
Never forget the fine old Irish Regiments pre-1921 - namely, The Dublin Fusiliers, The Leinster Regiment, The Munster Fusiliers and The Connaught Rangers. Also, for me a proud Ulsterman - The Royal Ulster Rifles, The Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers and The Royal Irish Fusiliers.

My grand uncle fell on the Somme with the Rangers .RIP

I've Irish and Scottish blood in me , my Father's side Irish and my Mothers Scottish. You cannot beat the sound of the Bagpipes.
Irish and English mix, pride watching this.
One of my family ancestral homes is still there. Robcommon Castle. Google it. Im descended from the Caulfields.
it was my dads funeral today. and he loved the pipes. r.i.p. dad.x
Sorry for your loss he will always be with you in spirit.
Wayne Dooley we didn’t need to know that
The pipes are great to march behind as I have had the honour of doing so on many occasions. I marched along that same road to change Guard at Windsor castle with the Irish Guards. I understand why your father would have loved the pipes.
And we didnt need your mouth to spout vitriol, fuck off and stay fucked off!! RIP Wayne Dooley's Da...
Mark Kavanagh Thanks pal.
There is something in the pipes that stirs the soul! I can not get enough of bagpipe music. If it doesn't stir the soul it, raises the hackles like it is supposed to for the enemies as the ladies from hades lead the troops in. I feel energized listening to it!
Most of our burials are piped out of church to where laid to rest. Quite emotional.
BEAUTIFUL TRADITIONS!
What the ENTIRE world is missing now.
❤❤❤ wow beautiful to hear them play Maggie, ive had it sang to me so many times, a wonderful thing to hear pipes and drums, ❤❤❤
Great video, Well done. Can't beat the pipes The great old tunes.
Going to Catterick this year and going to be joining the Irish guards as a proud Irish man keeping good military traditions a live.
jay srfc good luck mate i served 6 years with the Irish Guards was on this change of the Guard. Wonderful regiment you have chosen
Alan 9208 when do you think we'll see them back in Belfast? they're adored by many here. I know they've been several times since but the best occasion was about 2010 or 2011? they walked down the newtownards rd in East Belfast. their was a good "4 fig number" out to see them. it's always a pleasure to see them in belfast especially for bandsmen like myself
neiler 1690 aye mate in 2011 was homecoming parade from Afghan. i left shortly after that. Il find out and get back to you still have mates serving. Many memorable nights with band. Edinburgh and Basel tatoos to name a few, missed out by few months when they played at Windsor in 05 when we beat England. I was still in Basic. Gutted
Alan 9208 cheers mate
Fair play to you, ff ff. The Micks, and the Gurkhas, are the British Foreign Legion - proud professionals all!
I really like the way the WPC who goes up front looks back every once in a while to make sure the lads are still there :D.
Anyway, as a displaced Celt, I really appreciate this.
Thank you, Windsorsoldiers!
Love the history, ceremony and music. Thanks for posting.
I am fascinated by this... Can't get enough, really lifts the spirits.
Those bagpipers & drums gave me Goosebumps and choked up every times !
The opening tune is "Fàinne Geal an Lae" (The Dawning of the Day).
A great marching tune.
In Ireland the Bagpipes are called 'Píobaì Choghaidh' (War Pipes) in Irish.
The 'sit-down' pipes with the bellows are complicated indoor instruments called 'Píobaì Uillinn' (Elbow Pipes).
They played the 'Minstrel Boy' about half war around.
The words are by Thomas Moore (Victorian Era) but the melody is a very ancient Irish marching tune.
Moore saved a great number of our ancient tunes by giving them a new life.
i thought it was sean south
So impressive. Keep watching these over and over again.
They were looking good. God Bless them all
Capes are underrated. Lets bring those back, world.
I like my cape!
"Capes never left my friend", sincerely Lando Calrissian
They weigh a ton when wet and smell like wet dog. In her hot summer weather? Christ! Bloody awful. However in cold windy day? Rather nice.
yay they get to be superman
A stylish blanket you wear during the day, I love it.
I always love coming back to see my dad... This channel makes me so happy :')
i did public duties at both windsor castle and buck house in 1987 with the cheshire regiment .. we were one of the first "non guard" regiments who were honoured to do public duties and i will never forget it .... windsor castle was my favourite location and i generally prefered the rear posts which were much quieter .... great memories and a new sub for the channel !
Well done the micks, nice soul stirring music coming from those pipes.
gives me goose bumps brilliant

There is something haunting about the Pipes that stirs me every time and I'm an Aussie! Maybe a past life per chance?
Maybe it's just that the Mic's are out of tune on the upper notes.
I agree, Pipes are like something hidden in your emotion and when you here them from a distance coming over the hill. You feel good! The D day piper made thousands of our guys feel better.
to be honest, id be scared shitless seeing kilt wearing soldier playing bagpipe rolling down the battlefield, this instrument is awesome
D-day mate look up Bill Millin fuckin legend.
Bagpipe and drums work well together. It's looking good and makes you proud to be Britons.
Thank you very much for sharing this video. I have been practicing the pipes for 2 years now, and hearing those men play so well is incredible motivation for me. It's also really nice to see something that I may never have the chance to see for myself. :)
I will be in that regiment hopefully next year
Go luck to you sir from mass. Usa happy new years and erin go bragh!
Damn, what a fine body of men, a legendary part of the British Army! And those cloaks/tunics are awesome
I watch this all the time. Love it.
The music has a really energising effect on the people, love it :)
Sounds like the 12th over here in Northern Ireland well it is the Irish guards
Should be called the Ulster Planter's Regiment there are damn few in it who identify as Irish.
its a regiment made up of blokes from mostly second generation Irish areas such as liverpool, manchester, birmingham and london. about a third of the battalion is actually Irish be it Northern, Southern, catholic or protestant. as i said the other 2 thirds of us who are English have mostly Irish parentage and we very much identify with it! Q.S
I fricking love British culture!!! Anything UK related I simply adore!!! Why I had to be American is beyond me...
You're our cousins, also descended from the Vikings, Angles and other maniacs, don't you feel it in your blood?
Bic narok well heh!! It did feel like I belonged there! So maybe you are right!!
haha!
ho ho
Its not British Culture, its Celtic culture and they are not the same thing!!!..
Always enjoy your work! Thanks for posting.
I was only ever a cadet but to be a small custodian and member of the argyle and Sutherland Highlanders I will forever be extremely grateful and proud. Forever the thin red line 🏴🏴🏴🏴
Its time more of the northern English regiments started using pipes again. Such a strong cultural symbol of these islands.
Jonathan Williams that's why i said its time the northern English started. STARTED. As in, future tense.
Good to see the Police escort keeping in step,lol, difficult not too when such stirring IRISH marches are being played.Good solid bass drumming just what is needed on an occasion like this no fluffy dusters used.
TheDrummie1 these are Brits
Domenico Camplisson umm these are irish bro
Irish Marches!
Irish! brits arent Irish and vice versa, Ireland is Ireland and governed by Itself, the capital of Ireland is Dublin and we govern ourselves with no inflence from outsiders... so learn something or forever be confused...
Mark Kavanagh the north part of Ireland doesn't exist....
Extordinary well done keep it up most of all my hair turn red when I heard and seen this video
ah the skirl o the pipes brings a tear to the eye ye ken
l word FABULOUS !!!!!!
Bagpipes . . .. if you've ever wondered what it's like to hear Angels sing. Grab your soul and soothe your heart. (at least they do mine)
Happy fathers day dad. Love you always.
Looks great to see kilts 'n' caubeens. :)
i want them at my wedding lol
Why for one second would it matter where you are from? The pipes are a beautiful instrument
Was my late Dad got me into listening to this, like someone else said in the comments doesn't really matter where ya from to appreciate good music, played Amazing Grace has he was in hospital. Lost both parents day after each other. So the pipes alway remind me of me Dad. I'm from Derbyshire
Pissed up tonight. But still love it. Love ya dad.
I'm an American of German, Scottish, Irish, English & Spanish descent and I play the Bagpipes (LOVE THEM!) as well a a few other instruments and I love all of the music whether it be Irish or Scottish, or whatever nation it comes from and that goes for the people as well. What's the freaking difference what someone's ancestry is. (NOT a question!)
The saffron kilts of the Irish- The tune being played is the Old Rustic Bridge
The odd rough stopping from the pipes,PM no doubt kicked a bit of arse.Very enjoyable.
you guys are great
Love the sound of bagpipes I hate Brazilian music
I prefer Scotland sound and British sound !
its not a british sound its celtic, Celts are technically not british only saxons are british.. read our history before commenting, Your Brazilian its like me calling you Spanish or mexican ffs!.
Mark Kavanagh Eeeeehhhh, the Celts were called the Britons. He's not far off.
Your correct but the Britains of today are not the Celtic Britons of yesterday so racially they are not Britons, however your right he's not far off lol...
Mark Kavanagh The genes of a Celtic Briton hasn't just disappeared. The Celts and Gaels of Britain, along with the Anglo-Saxons both migrated to the isles, and they're descendants inhabit the isles today. Both English and Celtic alike are British.
And what were they before this romantic notion of Britishness was invented?? because politically the British identity is a bit of a misnoma, it doesnt actually mean anything, there are English guys down where I live who would beat the crap out of you for calling them British!! the one bar in my area wont allow the union flag inside the bar or outside the premises so what do you tell them?? the term British never really existed prior to the act of union and it was a term used to con every one on this island into thinking they were part of something bigger and better when the truth was far more elaborate! it was used to con hard working people into making the rich richer and thats the true simplicity of the con.. funny how some English guy can write some bollox on a piece of paper to make you all the same racially and like gullible idiots ye just accept it, go up to Glasgow on a Friday night and see how far ye get calling one of them a Brit, youll soon learn that it is a term of offence...
great
Simply Awesome !
Beautiful.
Up the Micks......QS
Enough arguing on my channel thanks..
Yes, I am sorry ...
no
Derek Luckas
LOL
the modern generation has lost the ability to Love! Salute!!
windsorsoldiers redsa
I just love the WPC out for a stroll with a pipe band following in close order!!
Excellent！！ From japan
Kilyts are. Worn mostly for formal occasions. Scots with Tartans. Each clan had their own yaryan pattern and color. Irish didn't use tartan but colors. Your used to seeing the short formal kilt. 16th Century they were longer and outer layer could be brought up over head or wrapped around shoulders for warmth
Janet Kruger
wtf is 'yaryan'?
The whole clan tartan thing was made up by two English writers in C19 th along with random patterns
It’s mostly myth
Made up to suit Victorian fashion tastes
Along with the entirely made up language by the same two guys who cashed in on the trend .
Rather like brave heart who was in fact a common cattle thief from Northumberland which for the culturally challenged is in England.
I pass by his execution spot on a weekly basis on my bike.
Brings a smile to my face
Cattle rustler from England to Scottish freedom fighter via Hollywood
Oh dear
How sad
It really pisses me off when ignorance takes over the world...Know and love your Heritage!! 100% Celtic!!
James Baird that would be a heritage of over 300 years irish/Ulsterman fighting for King/queen and country. you trying to act smart talking about history? if you knew any history you'd know there is a long history of Irish regiments fighting for the crown. and I'm talking southern Catholic regiments. so maybe you need to pay more attention to your "history"
Like the Minstrel Boy bit. Always reminds me of the 'Man who would be King'.
gosh, even the sound of the footsteps across the cobblestone is intimidating.
one of the things that still makes this country great you don't get this in any other country
22grena well Ireland is part of England so that's ok so its the same as Scotland too and wales they are all part of England too
+22grena well maybe not the republic but Northern Ireland will always be part of Great Britain
MegaGary1960 come to Spain
Ireland isn't part of England you spastic
Great?? its called Great Britain cos of its size not because its amazing lol...
Can you imagine 1000 Pipers Marching in the Iraqi desert in the dead of night towards the ISIS lines leading a Battalion of Irish and Scots Guards? Smoke machines and light projections to amplify to sight and sounds. ISIS would SH1T themselves and run, (so would I LOL)
The funny thing is, they probally would run..
Now, there's an idea .... not a bad one either!
John O'Connell Can you imagine not creating such a freaking mess to begin with?
As always the sappers will deal with the clearence of land muntions so the tanks and rest of army can roll through
John O'Connell can't see why men in skirts would frighten anyone !!!....it's a Lancashire joke ...a Lancashire mill owner came up with the kilt in the early 1800s ...he opened a mill in the lowlands of Scotland and it was too dangerous having the big wrap around like a Roman Togo with all that moving machinery so he came up with the tartan skirt and the sweeties loved it !!
FANTASTIC !!
i love the pipers....fearsome in there battle days
Fancy building the castle under the flight path of Heathrow Airport.
The Castle was built before Heathrow Airport XD
Killers Guild No, you are kidding me, I would never have guessed that.... (What a moron)
maria cornwallis Lel
Killers Guild lol
xD
My old regiment. Irish Guards, Blue Red Blue through and through. The knock kneed copper looks daft, though...
Alex Mulvihill there is no room for sectarianism in the British Army. We are all brothers and it doesn’t matter.
I could never tire of a good blow on the 'pipes!
I remember marching up to the castle and them bloody cobblestones at the main gate. FAB
Love the sound of bagpipes. What song are they playing?
A variety of tunes, Star of County Down, Green Glens of Antrim, South Down Militia and others that I don't remember.
I just noticed that the Lady Bobby (spelling?) was in step with the guards as well, very cool.
7.30 Rowan Tree
Jeff Landuyt .. She put hands behind her back to stop swinging her arms!
Raglan Road
I hope Britain doesn't break up I am full of dread as a Canadian
i dont know why, but when it zoomed out and showed the old mad standing there...it gave me chills.
Good to see my home town! My father used to be one of the policemen who did traffic point duty at the foot of the Queen Victoria statue. He often enjoyed watching the band sergeant majors whirling huge marching maces within inches of the heads of stupid tourists who would not move. Memories
British through & through well done to these brave men from Ulster! Yes NORTHERN IRELAND. Ex ROYAL IRISH RANGER.
YOU said it fella, there not Irish at all!! love how the brits still try to steal everyone elses culture, 800 fecking years and ye just cant let go, its pathetic... ye had no culture till you took it from the Irish, Scots and Welsh...
And what was it before the British stole it?? why should we expect different ye have been stealing and usurping Celtic culture for years, whats funny here is how you classed it as British then said from Ulster in Northern Ireland and then said Ex Royal Irish Ranger!! if its Irish then its not British is it? as Ireland is not in Britain or Great Britain, ye can keep convincing yourselves that it is but it is not and never will be, go look up the act of union or the laws of geography according to British Ordnance survey.. youll be telling us next that China is part of the Congo!! its pathetic pal, your empire ended a long time ago get over it...
Stephen Mcauley not all are from the north
Mark Kavanagh well Irish have fought for the brits more than against sure during the 1700s and 1800s one third of the military was Irish I for one am not going to simply forget brave Irishmen who fought even if it was for an oppressive empire
Oh, I wish ya lot would stop playing politics. Listen to the music, be proud and stop yer bleeding scrapping.
Ta!
Very proud of My Royal Brittish American Philadelphian,PA still showing and demonstrating their culture and even in Britain.I hope that Our fellow Brits enjoyed the march since they should be accustoned to it.We are use to it in all parts of Pennsylvania also.I send them regurlarly now to you all as well share together with you in Britain also.I think that they should march for the Parliament Building as well.Your Scottish Brittish Of The US, Queen Arelis Of Scots.
BRILLIANT!
whose side would these guys be on if there was another William Wallace?
the Gaelic side of course.
@S Hanlon Only the Orange ones - if they survived long enough.
At least the Irish pipers don't spoil their outline with a hairy great sporran! And their music is a 1000 times more of a swagger than the Scots (I'm outa here).
Insperato62 the sporran is to cover their big manhood
Or their little manhood ;)
Insperato62 p
Hoping it was just an opinion.
Tae fuck you prick
love that bass drummer
at the start i bet that was the chaps dad coming to wish him luck, or someone he knows :) great parade
god bless British troops and French troops US troops in Afghanistan
Wonder if the police woman realised just how knock kneed she is
Who - PC Plod?
mmmm, now you mention it!
At least she took the trouble to get in step.
Pity she couldn't get rid of the gum she was chewing, chavy bird
I love it.
Amazing!
All this crap about the irish border in eu , didnt we have good relations before without eu , with ireland?.
england does nor see irish as a separate race they are us, and we are them.
enoch powellsghost you are fucking deluded they are us we are them? What kind of statement is that? culturally and our ancestry are different. Must be that Saxon inbred brain of yours not working.
+Celtic Gaelic Irish King lmao Ireland was more isolated than England, so you've got a higher chance of being inbred ;)
Cyvan you think isolation got to do with it? Look at the royal family for fuck sake hahaha inbred as can be.
+Celtic Gaelic Irish King you really think I expect Irish people to be inbred? k. And btw, pretty much every royal family is inbred to some extend.
Cyvan English ancestry is a mess tbh Celts where there first then the Romans then the Saxons. Now it will be the Muslims ruining your gene pool.
Not Irish: British.
Steve Hanlon well technically they are Irishmen
@@vestty5802 no they are not
Even lady cop in the end kept in step. Rushed kids by...and back in step until she stood aside
Now this is cool, tyvm 4 posting :)
