hi from glasgow, Scotland :) happy new year! we are a very proud nation and have fought off invasion from vikings, romans and most importantly, the English. the national anthem refers to king edward the 2nd of England, his invasion into scotland and defeat at the battle of bannockburn in 1314 to the Scottish troops led by robert the bruce king of scots. scottish history is very interesting, if you thought game of thrones was wild you have not seen anything yet haha.

St Andrew 🏴.. Three Englishmen were in a bar and spotted an Scotsman. One Englishman said he was going to piss the Scot off. He walked over to the Scotsman and tapped him on the shoulder. "Hey, I hear your St. Andrew was a sissy," he said. "Oh really, hmm, I didn't know that," said the Scot. Puzzled, the English man walked back to his buddies. "I told him St. Andrew was a sissy and he didn't care!" he said. "You just don't know how to set him off. Watch and learn," the second Englishman said. He walked over and tapped the Scotsman on the shoulder. "I hear your St. Andrew was a transvestite!" he shouted. "Oh, wow, I didn't know that, thank you," said the Scotsman. Shocked beyond belief, the Englishman went back to his buddies. "You're right, he is unshakable!" he said. The third Englishman said, "No, no, no, I will really piss him off. You just watch." The Englishman walked over to the Scot tapped him on the shoulder, and said, "I hear your St. Andrew was an Englishman!" "Yeah, that's what your buddies were trying to tell me," the Scotsman replied 🏴

This was written by Roy Williamson of The Corries, takes me back to my childhood. My dad was a huge Corries fan and every Hogmanay in our house was filled with the sound of bagpipes and the Corries and my drunk older brothers singing attempts. Happy days and happy memories. Beautiful song of the Scots, written by a wonderfully talented man who’s legacy will live on forever❤️
I'm a proud Scottish man. It's the most important thing in my life Scotland is in our blood we are one nation that stands together through thick and thin ❤❤❤
I have lived in Scotland since 2003, I love living here, so much so I call myself a *NEW SCOT* I am blessed to live in an amazing country, with fantastic hosts, the Scots are wonderful people. Yep, I just had to marry one ❤ All the very best to you for 2025, let's hope it is a better one for everyone, love ❤ from Scotland ♥️🏴♥️

This song commemorates Scotland's win at Bannockburn (Robert the bruce) over England (Edward the 2nd) in the 13 hundreds. Merry Christmas and thanks for liking our anthem you beautiful people
@paulmcdonough1093 stop showing your ignorance ya bawbag, it wasn't the "English" that defeated the Jacobbites (English fought on their side also) it was British government troops which had at least three Scottish regiments fighting in the battle, I suggest that you know the facts before embarrassing yourself again 😡
So I just watched this for the first time, as did you. And damn! that made me cry! The way the whole crowd kept the rithm! Young and old . Thnx! I visited Scotland ones on a road trip. Now i am defenitly going back there again.
We're a very proud nation we take pride in our country we invented alot of stuff that shaped the world to what it is today defo look into it we're a friendly bunch we welcome visitors with open arms makes me proud xxx

"and stood against him, proud Edward's Army" refers to the Battle of Bannockburn near Stirling in 1314, when King Edward ll of England had invaded Scotland and was defeated by Robert the Bruce, King of Scotland. A pivotal moment in Scotland's First War of Independence. We Scots have long memories!
Not that long a memory. Most in scotland now hide behind the woke banter and have zero balls to stand up for what’s being sung about here. Pathetic really
There is a video you might like to check out on your channel i think it’s called 10 best places is Scotland to visit or something it’s been a while since i’ve seen it also look up the fairy pools in Skye, Scotland they are magical to see. Happy holidays 🎄 and all the best wishes for the new year. Take care from a new subscriber in Scotland, UK. 😘🏴

New viewer and subscriber on your channel. I loved your reactions, I haven’t seen another reaction channel doing an anthem🥰. Flower of Scotland is truly exquisite, and powerful at the same time. My son is a piper and I can tell you when you are at a gathering and all the competing bands play together at the end, it hits you in the heart and gut. Having a whole stadium join in, I would be in heaven 😇. Flower of Scotland is my favourite along with Highland Cathedral (I am my Country)
Proud to be a Scot and get goosebumps every time I hear our anthem and singing it is always special - Amazing to see your brilliant reaction to it also 💙
Thanks guys and ladies. I left Scotland at 21 to work in England. I had visited England to see my brother in 1967 and the pop rock culture was just exploding down there. I had enough of bagpipes and other stuff back then and moved to pastures new. As time goes by and you grow older your rootes come back. My family have passed away now in Scotland apart from my younger brother who spent many years in Germany beforehand Jim Ramsey on RUclips has made some great videos of pipebands marching through Scottish towns. I now find them very uplifting and dont feel a traitor anymore. 🤣

Every year it's a friendly battle as to which national song will out do the other in the emotional stakes; Scotland's or Wales' Men of Harlech. When the Rugby Union Five Nations (now the Six Nations) tournament was on every year when I was a kid it was always the favourite part for me. Full disclosure ~ Wales always won for me, but I have lived in Scotland now for very nearly twenty-three years; which is kind of amusing. I love this country now, but I love it when either country beats England, where I was born :-) kerk
Flower of Scotland" (Scottish Gaelic: Flùr na h-Alba, Scots: Flouer o Scotland) is a Scottish patriotic song commonly used as an unofficial national anthem of Scotland. Written sometime in the mid-1960s by folk musician Roy Williamson, its lyrics describe the victory of Robert the Bruce, King of Scots, over Edward II, King of England, at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314. Owing to its historical basis in the Wars of Scottish independence, the song urges contemporary Scots to rise again as an independent nation and remember the day their ancestors deterred Edward's English invaders. Notable for its association with supporters of the Scottish national football team and Scottish national rugby union team, "Flower of Scotland" is one of the most popular sporting anthems in Europe.
I’m Scot’s living in wales watching your prog made me feel proud . My mother took me to wales when I was three I’m 83 now and I feel just as Scot’s as I felt then. I have an affinity with Scotland especially Campbeltown and still proud to be a Brit.
My son and daughter-in-law were at that game. There is a big difference listening to this on RUclips compared to being in the stadium..... blows your socks aff!
The Scottish were tribes from Ireland that crossed over to Northern Britain 1500 years ago over the period of 200 years . We fought the Picts and Britons eventually founding the country of Scotland . We are a nation of Scots Picts Vikings and probably have someone from every nation in the world now . Come for a visit 🏴❤👍
so you're not the real scots,you invaded from ireland and got rid of the indigenous people of the northern british isles and called it your own after conquest?...wow
Were the people before them real scots? Or those before them? People like you are very selective in who gets to be "indigenous" . Frankly, people like you have very little of value to say on any subject. I know you believe otherwise, but it's obvious you're prone to believing nonsense.
The Picts were also from Ireland but got to Scotland first,and were steadily forced north becoming the highlanders and the southern part being Scots run,if I remember my history they had different languages and religions.
They are singing about our history , edwards army is the king of england who wanted to take scotland. The movie bravehearlt is about exactly this (even though the movie isnt entirely accurate, it is true that scotland had to fight england who wanted to invade us)
That's an anthem wee sing no matter where we are 🏴 is a great wee place, I would highly recommend the highlands and islands most beautiful place in the world
I’m Scottish and only started watching your channel recently and I like it. Scotland is a very old country. We used to be Celtic tribes in the pre Roman times and then the romans came and we remained tribes and resisted the romans and we were one of the few people in history to do so. Then after the fall of Rome we we invaded by the angles and the Saxons who later became the English. England is angle-land in modern English. The English and Scottish had an 500 year war called the Anglo Saxon wars. It then stopped after the Norse invasion of Britain by the Vikings in the late 700’s where Scotland was mostly conquered by the Norse. It then became just a small territory of clans that teamed up with the Anglo Saxons to defeat the Vikings and then the Norman’s of France invaded all of Britain. They re established the Scottish throne but our king James died in the Middle Ages with no sons and created a civil war in Scotland between all our clan nobility. In this situation the English reasserted their authority over Scotland under the rule of king Edward the first. We then fought the Scottish war of independence against him and won our freedom. Gaining national heroes like William Wallace and king Robert the Bruce. And our national anthem is a song in remembrance of this moment in our country’s history where our national heroes fought and died for our freedom. Which btw we later gave up again in another religious civil war 500 years later but that’s another story
“Mostly conquered by the Norse” not even close to being true this. Also the vikings were “defeated” at the battle of Largs, against a Scot’s army, no Anglo Saxons present.
@@arod9998 Scotland wants to be ruled by the people they elect to run Scotland for the benefit of those who live in Scotland. The majority of those in Scotland voted to remain in the European Union by 62% & this has since risen to 72% according to polling. The latest poll from Norcast on behalf of the Sunday Times put support for independence at 54% rising to 59% if Royalty were rejected as Head of State.
@@hashburystumble8808 I never trust polling. That aside, Iv never met anyone that wants to rejoin the EU, not saying there aren’t any but I don’t believe these figures. One of the problems is that most polling puts independence and rejoining the EU in the same bracket, very skewed.
@bygoneera9521 What a ridiculous statement that you have never met anyone who wants to rejoin the European Union. You may not "trust" polling but your opinion of the results is even less trustworthy to anyone with half a brain.
Edward Lang Shanks, (long legs) king of England. Hammer of the Scotts. That's who proud Edward is. Think of the movie Braveheart. It's about those events and history and people. FLOWER OF SCOTLAND, Sang by a Scottish folk group called the Corries. Eventually becoming our National Anthem 🏴💙🏴💙🏴💙 Alba gu brath. (SCOTLAND FOR EVER) Greetings from Glasgow 🤝

I am a Scot and watching you guys watch our team sing our anthem and get emotional like that, had me in tears. I am always greetin' a wee bit when I hear it but it was lovely to see you appreciate it like that. You asked what the song is about - Its a song about the victory of Robert the Bruce of Scotland over King Edward ll (the 2nd) of England at the battle of Bannockburn. When it talks about us 'rising' and 'being a nation again' it is speaking about us reclaiming our independence... and that we still can. Thank you for your video!

Beautiful song of the Scots, written by a wonderfully talented man who’s legacy will live on forever❤️
I watch this with tears of pride. My heart swells. Scotland born and bread. Bless you all 👍🙏🏻❤️🏴
Merry Christmas from a proud scot ❤
I'm a proud Scottish man. It's the most important thing in my life Scotland is in our blood we are one nation that stands together through thick and thin ❤❤❤
Apart from when its voting for independance 🙄

Welcome

Thanks, I am more than comfortable, I don't know what it is but there is a hidden something that draws me here, it *just feels like home.*
It's funny, when I am on the way back from visiting relatives in England and cross the border into Scotland something lifts the heavy feeling off your shoulders, the air smells different and you know you are *home.*
I am very proud to be a New Scot and I thank you for your welcome 🤗♥️🏴♥️
This song commemorates Scotland's win at Bannockburn (Robert the bruce) over England (Edward the 2nd) in the 13 hundreds. Merry Christmas and thanks for liking our anthem you beautiful people
then the english smashed the jocks at culloden and for the next 400 years fact
That you would view this as a source of pride says a tragic amount about you and your entitlement.
@paulmcdonough1093 stop showing your ignorance ya bawbag, it wasn't the "English" that defeated the Jacobbites (English fought on their side also) it was British government troops which had at least three Scottish regiments fighting in the battle, I suggest that you know the facts before embarrassing yourself again 😡
@@paulmcdonough1093Now the English are getting smashed by dinghys.
@@paulmcdonough1093 keep smoking the pipe my guy 😂😂😂😂😂
Happy New Year from Bonnie Scotland 🏴🏴🥃🥃
As a Scot this always gives me goose bumps and fills my heart with pride❤🏴
From Scotland, our history is so ancient and magical you need to come to see for yourself.
Yep,living in the past,like the song.
So I just watched this for the first time, as did you. And damn! that made me cry! The way the whole crowd kept the rithm! Young and old . Thnx! I visited Scotland ones on a road trip. Now i am defenitly going back there again.
We're a very proud nation we take pride in our country we invented alot of stuff that shaped the world to what it is today defo look into it we're a friendly bunch we welcome visitors with open arms makes me proud xxx
Two things is not many....😂
@@Nighthawk-m9u Try checking out Scottish inventions. There are many, many more than any other country produced.
@@Nighthawk-m9u 🤣🤣🤣 your funny you may wanna look at an inventions book see those haha you get at the doctor's that needle was invented by a Scottish person as the TV, telephone (Scottish born), fridge,ATM machine waterproofs steam engine and on and on and on 🤣🤣 xx
@Yesser-Thistle73 so many more but coz there successful they are "British" if they would have failed then they would have been Scottish typical lol ( kidding before anyone takes offence sorta 🤣🤣) xx
Guys across the road were welcoming each other with knives last night.
Happy new year! & thank you 😊 love from Scotland 🏴🏴🏴🏴
"and stood against him, proud Edward's Army" refers to the Battle of Bannockburn near Stirling in 1314, when King Edward ll of England had invaded Scotland and was defeated by Robert the Bruce, King of Scotland. A pivotal moment in Scotland's First War of Independence. We Scots have long memories!
I would say a more pivitol moment was William Wallaces charisma uniting the nation so we stood a chance.
Not that long a memory. Most in scotland now hide behind the woke banter and have zero balls to stand up for what’s being sung about here. Pathetic really
Not long enough to vote for Independence though.
@@nomakgaming9458we lost.
Hope you and your family have a very happy new year. Love from Scotland 🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴🏴
There is a video you might like to check out on your channel i think it’s called 10 best places is Scotland to visit or something it’s been a while since i’ve seen it also look up the fairy pools in Skye, Scotland they are magical to see. Happy holidays 🎄 and all the best wishes for the new year. Take care from a new subscriber in Scotland, UK. 😘🏴
I'm from Dundee Scotland & you might also like 'Scotland the Brave' & my personal favourite 'Scottish soldier' on the bagpipes, the french national anthem is pretty special too
I am also from Dundee and those two tunes are shite.
I am also from Dundee. The Crest of the Archer Guilds is a bow. They were/are, anti 'J' people. William Wallace Coat of Arms is a bow. Wakey, Wakey.

Good God! 🤦🏻♂️

I second Bruce Fummey, not only does he have tons of historical facts but he is also very funny
New viewer and subscriber on your channel. I loved your reactions, I haven’t seen another reaction channel doing an anthem🥰. Flower of Scotland is truly exquisite, and powerful at the same time. My son is a piper and I can tell you when you are at a gathering and all the competing bands play together at the end, it hits you in the heart and gut. Having a whole stadium join in, I would be in heaven 😇. Flower of Scotland is my favourite along with Highland Cathedral (I am my Country)
I honestly got goose bumps listening to our anthem, iv never thought how other people think of our anthem
Proud to be a Scot and get goosebumps every time I hear our anthem and singing it is always special - Amazing to see your brilliant reaction to it also 💙
Watching from a very dreich scotland this hogmany. Would bring a tear to a glass eye. Slàinte Mhath 🎉
Much ❤ from, Scotland 🏴
Thanks guys and ladies. I left Scotland at 21 to work in England. I had visited England to see my brother in 1967 and the pop rock culture was just exploding down there. I had enough of bagpipes and other stuff back then and moved to pastures new. As time goes by and you grow older your rootes come back. My family have passed away now in Scotland apart from my younger brother who spent many years in Germany beforehand Jim Ramsey on RUclips has made some great videos of pipebands marching through Scottish towns. I now find them very uplifting and dont feel a traitor anymore. 🤣
Aye ye kin try run fae yer Scottish blood and DNA. But ALBA never forgets its children name matter how far ye might be fae the homeland. You are my kin cause were Scottish hope you and your family and friends are awe dain gid and full of health. Alba gu bràth
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year love Fae Scotland 🏴🏴🏴
Sending our love from scotland. We sing FLOWER OF SCOTLAND WITH TEARS IN OUR EYES . Scotland the brave
Thank you from Scotland, you are wonderful people. Happy New Year!
Every year it's a friendly battle as to which national song will out do the other in the emotional stakes; Scotland's or Wales' Men of Harlech. When the Rugby Union Five Nations (now the Six Nations) tournament was on every year when I was a kid it was always the favourite part for me. Full disclosure ~ Wales always won for me, but I have lived in Scotland now for very nearly twenty-three years; which is kind of amusing. I love this country now, but I love it when either country beats England, where I was born :-) kerk
I love Yma o Hyd, it's up there with FOS as far as I'm concerned.
Hello from Scotland u need to come and visit loads history goose bumps every time that song places true Scott's
Flower of Scotland" (Scottish Gaelic: Flùr na h-Alba, Scots: Flouer o Scotland) is a Scottish patriotic song commonly used as an unofficial national anthem of Scotland. Written sometime in the mid-1960s by folk musician Roy Williamson, its lyrics describe the victory of Robert the Bruce, King of Scots, over Edward II, King of England, at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314. Owing to its historical basis in the Wars of Scottish independence, the song urges contemporary Scots to rise again as an independent nation and remember the day their ancestors deterred Edward's English invaders.
Notable for its association with supporters of the Scottish national football team and Scottish national rugby union team, "Flower of Scotland" is one of the most popular sporting anthems in Europe.
I’m Scot’s living in wales watching your prog made me feel proud . My mother took me to wales when I was three I’m 83 now and I feel just as Scot’s as I felt then. I have an affinity with Scotland especially Campbeltown and still proud to be a Brit.
Being Scottish is a privilege and if you don’t know you will never know ♥️🏴😊🏴♥️🏴
My son and daughter-in-law were at that game.
There is a big difference listening to this on RUclips compared to being in the stadium..... blows your socks aff!
The Scottish were tribes from Ireland that crossed over to Northern Britain 1500 years ago over the period of 200 years . We fought the Picts and Britons eventually founding the country of Scotland . We are a nation of Scots Picts Vikings and probably have someone from every nation in the world now . Come for a visit 🏴❤👍
so you're not the real scots,you invaded from ireland and got rid of the indigenous people of the northern british isles and called it your own after conquest?...wow
Were the people before them real scots? Or those before them? People like you are very selective in who gets to be "indigenous" . Frankly, people like you have very little of value to say on any subject. I know you believe otherwise, but it's obvious you're prone to believing nonsense.
@@lennon1482there was no fighting between the Scots and Picts. This is a myth.
@@Alba67 tell him
The Picts were also from Ireland but got to Scotland first,and were steadily forced north becoming the highlanders and the southern part being Scots run,if I remember my history they had different languages and religions.
Big love from Scotland x thank you for embracing our anthem and getting a sense of whose are...... Scotland the Brave.
They are singing about our history , edwards army is the king of england who wanted to take scotland. The movie bravehearlt is about exactly this (even though the movie isnt entirely accurate, it is true that scotland had to fight england who wanted to invade us)
Awww,as a Scottish person, i love that you loved it. I hope you get to see scotland ❤
That was very nice. The first time I’ve heard it😅
Happy New Year guys from Glasgow, Scotland. ❤❤❤❤
This was beautiful to see, thank you for showing our little country such respect ✌🏼💙🏴
That's an anthem wee sing no matter where we are 🏴 is a great wee place, I would highly recommend the highlands and islands most beautiful place in the world
…because we’re absolutely blootered.
I’m Scottish and only started watching your channel recently and I like it. Scotland is a very old country. We used to be Celtic tribes in the pre Roman times and then the romans came and we remained tribes and resisted the romans and we were one of the few people in history to do so. Then after the fall of Rome we we invaded by the angles and the Saxons who later became the English. England is angle-land in modern English. The English and Scottish had an 500 year war called the Anglo Saxon wars. It then stopped after the Norse invasion of Britain by the Vikings in the late 700’s where Scotland was mostly conquered by the Norse. It then became just a small territory of clans that teamed up with the Anglo Saxons to defeat the Vikings and then the Norman’s of France invaded all of Britain. They re established the Scottish throne but our king James died in the Middle Ages with no sons and created a civil war in Scotland between all our clan nobility. In this situation the English reasserted their authority over Scotland under the rule of king Edward the first. We then fought the Scottish war of independence against him and won our freedom. Gaining national heroes like William Wallace and king Robert the Bruce. And our national anthem is a song in remembrance of this moment in our country’s history where our national heroes fought and died for our freedom. Which btw we later gave up again in another religious civil war 500 years later but that’s another story
“Mostly conquered by the Norse” not even close to being true this. Also the vikings were “defeated” at the battle of Largs, against a Scot’s army, no Anglo Saxons present.
Now you Scot Nats want, unelected bureaucrats in Brussels to rule our affairs 😂
@@arod9998 Scotland wants to be ruled by the people they elect to run Scotland for the benefit of those who live in Scotland.
The majority of those in Scotland voted to remain in the European Union by 62% & this has since risen to 72% according to polling.
The latest poll from Norcast on behalf of the Sunday Times put support for independence at 54% rising to 59% if Royalty were rejected as Head of State.
@@hashburystumble8808 I never trust polling. That aside, Iv never met anyone that wants to rejoin the EU, not saying there aren’t any but I don’t believe these figures. One of the problems is that most polling puts independence and rejoining the EU in the same bracket, very skewed.
@bygoneera9521 What a ridiculous statement that you have never met anyone who wants to rejoin the European Union. You may not "trust" polling but your opinion of the results is even less trustworthy to anyone with half a brain.
Always sing it when the rugbys on, same with the Irish absolutely love them coming from a Welshman🏴
Edward Lang Shanks, (long legs) king of England. Hammer of the Scotts.
That's who proud Edward is. Think of the movie Braveheart.
It's about those events and history and people.
FLOWER OF SCOTLAND,
Sang by a Scottish folk group called the Corries.
Eventually becoming our National Anthem 🏴💙🏴💙🏴💙

Greetings from Glasgow 🤝
Ah, Glasgow, The "Dear Green Place". Both my parents were from Glasgow.
Bannockburn was 1314, when the next Edward (son of Langshanks) was skelped.
Happy New Year from the far N.E. of Scotland 🏴🥃🏴
Ireland National Anthem (Ireland Call, Shoulder To Shoulder) is an Inspiring Song to Watch and to Listen as well (Ireland Rugby) 🇮🇪🍀
Thank you guys from a scots woman for sharing this❤. Come visit when our tattoo is on. If you love this, you will love our military tattoo. Upmost respect from scotland 💙
You need to watch braveheart
😊
I am a Scot and watching you guys watch our team sing our anthem and get emotional like that, had me in tears. I am always greetin' a wee bit when I hear it but it was lovely to see you appreciate it like that.
You asked what the song is about - Its a song about the victory of Robert the Bruce of Scotland over King Edward ll (the 2nd) of England at the battle of Bannockburn. When it talks about us 'rising' and 'being a nation again' it is speaking about us reclaiming our independence... and that we still can.
Thank you for your video!
