I’m a true Texan who was introduced to Runrig in 1991 while working in Ras Shuker, Egypt with a Scotsman named Paul McGin. My ancestors came to America from Scotland and Ireland prior in the early 1700s. When I hear Gaelic music it stirs something in my DNA and moves me in ways no other form of music can.
you really think sc otia has no voice ,you could not be more wrong,an roisin vbhan still exists and the toast slainte mhor is still oft preffered to slainte math
For some of us Runrig are unsurpassable. Their core followers are certainly Scottish but they have made their mark across all over the UK and beyond . I am so proud that I instigated their concert at the Victoria Hall Hanley all those years back . Runrig will always be that bit special . It’s more than music , much more . As most of the Scottish fans know
Couldn't agree more. was at this gig any many more over the 35 years I followed them (nd still my favourite ). Always a great band live, one of the best
We are not really human or civilised, and our inhumanity to man still (and will) makes countless thousands mourn! If that is humanity, I'm glad that I am old now .....old Tich.xx
90s teen & getting to see runrig with friends.. nicking (borrowing) the runrig tape more than once off my dad 😂 I have them on cds now 😆 & on various playlists
This song reminds me of James Clark who is still with us at the age of 99!! He was a Lovat Scout and landed on Sword Beach with his illustrious leader Lord Lovat known as Shimi. Jimmy told me what it was like to be there. He did not know a statue had been put up to Lord Lovat. I can still hear Jimmys comment on that,"It`s very like him indeed and i can see him standing there with his cromag" ( Shepards crook) You will not be forgotten Jimmy and i count it a privilege knowing you.
Magnifique chanson émouvante. Malcolm Jones prouve une fois de plus qu'il est un guitariste exceptionnel. Runrig, depuis très longtemps mon groupe préféré. Vraiment dommage qu'ils ont décidé d'arrêter.
@@skyemack8230 Can we not appreciate the three of them for being such great, unique, guitarists? Malcolm Jones is massively underrated, I'll give you that.
I've seen the sunlight shining on the valley I've seen the shadows darken on the deep I've seen the young men riding out for glory And broken in defeat There was an hour that never knew a gloaming The whole of life, enchanted in a day And we'll be there, forever in the places Where we used to be Passing the hedgerows, moving through the orchards Through the bocàge and breaking out for Caen Dealing fear and all our dices loaded With the courage of the dawn And some will rise and some will fall To gain the world or lose it all And that time was mine to hear you When you called You were our youngest, brightest flower Walking side by side through our darkest hour We'll take this cup, this portion evermore I've seen the last wave breaking on the beaches I've seen the angels crying on the wire I've seen the first star up and brightly shining Couldn't rise much higher Now we're waiting here not getting older But we can dream like we can not believe With all those fools, those great historic moments That flatter to deceive. And some will come and some will go To rise on wings in skies of gold Or to fall down to the final, silent cold When I was young it burned so bright The only son, a rising Christ Now I'm left here in the fall-out of that light The rise and fall The rise and fall The rise and fall The rise and fall The rise And fall
Not live you won't but there are CD's that tell the story o the most underratedbabd ever. Thanks to a bunch of of Self Centred DJ's and Channels thanks fir 40 years and mercy be for CD!s
It's sad that 110 years later we are still killing each other! Two world wars, plus other conflicts! Why can't we just get on! Ignore politics and religion, politics is out for what they can get, religion! Not sure, every body has their own ideas and they always clash with somebody else. Maybe try to get along, respect other peoples views?
And now we must mourn one of the band who has fallen.
RIP Bruce,

Kann man nur zustimmen.
R.I.P Bruce
Crazy to think 5 years on, after their final concert at Stirling these guys are still getting new fans: but then class music will always win out.
Runrig will forever be established as a class act beyond anyone.
Seems just like yesterday we were at Stirling for the last dance
I agree I only discovered runrig a year ago, what have I been listening to and I stay on north Uist
Absolutely magnificent band. They may have broken up now - BUT they will ALWAYS be with us. Thank you guys.❤️❤️❤️
Came to them late. But grateful to find them ❤
The voice of Scotland is no more.
In times like these they are sadly missed.
Music does not get any better than this, thank you.
Runrig - in my mind you're always the winner. One of the best with so many evocative and meaningful songs.
you really think sc otia has no voice ,you could not be more wrong,an roisin vbhan still exists and the toast slainte mhor is still oft preffered to slainte math
Rest in Peace, Bruce, I will miss you.I send you 1000 ame n
Malcolm jones a legend.r.I.p. Bruce. So lucky to have seen you both❤
We miss you so much RUNRIG.
God bless Bruce ❤
Malcolm Jones, what a musician.
Malcolm is the Soul of Runrig....What a great musican🙌🙌👍
He most certainly is. Outstanding.
A skilled artist, that's what I say
Real music and real people.not some computer enhanced stuff
The most underrated musician in Scotland 🏴 but we are blessed to have heard him and his 5 mates play amazing
That guitar solo is one of the most moving things I’ve ever heard. He poured every ounce of his soul into that.
One of the GREAT guitar solos.🎸♥️🎸♥️
he was weeping on their last night...
He's a truly magnificent guitar player. ❤
@@stevehughes6097so was I and I wasn’t there. 😢😢
@@juleshathaway3894 Ich war das letzte Konzert auf der Lore Lay einfach Super
Fabulous tribute to all the young men we will never see their likes again great runrig

I'm from America. Runrig has been one of my favorite bands for many years. It's a shame I never got to see them live!
Runrig a different level. You listen, experience and feel their music. Regardless on nationality or politics, songs sung on a higher level.
Still remember the first time I heard this live most of us if not all were moved to tears and that guitar solo
There's a masterpiece of just how good this band was as a live group they play better on stage than in any studio
Definitely a great live band, I love some of the studio stuff but some recordings didn't do them justice I feel
Couldn't agree more. was at this gig any many more over the 35 years I followed them (nd still my favourite ). Always a great band live, one of the best
We need more of the same,we will get something other than computer enhanced music.will never be as good just different 😉
This is one of my favourite Runrig songs, absolutely beautifully written and composed 🏴 ❤️
So appropriate with todays agonising rise of suffering.
Bless Ukraine and it’s poor suffering people .
We are not really human or civilised, and our inhumanity to man still (and will) makes countless thousands mourn! If that is humanity, I'm glad that I am old now .....old Tich.xx
Simply the best fantastic Malcolm what a guitar player
So love these guys music always an forever an me 74 xxx
Oh how. He can make that guitar sing!
I am from cork Ireland and i love Runrig music since 1980s
Thank ,s million for lovely Song 🎵 ❤️ 💕 ♥️ 💖 💗 🎵 ❤️ 💕

& on various playlists
A reunion is needed at this time of upheaval in our world..was at the last concert in Stirling .Awesome 🥺🏴❤️
Just sit and listen to this………! Couldn’t be better for our current time.
They are quite unique!
They're fabulous excellent mucicians
@@skyemack8230 Indeed they are. I happen to know one of Calum and Rorys uncles, a brother of their late mother. Now at her rest.

This always sends shivers down my spine . Knowing the meaning .
What song is this please.
@@lorrivaughn9066 Runrig, „The Rise and Fall“.
Malcom can make a Gitar sing
Donnie Munro was something special, but this is still a great performance and captures the Runrig sound.
Malcolm Jones - stunning guitar 🎸🎸
The master
This is so powerful. I’m moved to tears
Great band in the most beautiful city. 😍
Only found this a short time ago and loved it straight away real magic
I would like to dedicate this to the brave people of Ukraine.
The world is not yet civilised, and "Mans inhumanity to Man, makes countless thousands Mourn." Will it ever change?
No for the people that died fighting the NAZIS, not the ones sucking Ukrainian NAZI dick!
Y they r brave? B cause they r protecting westren interests against russia?
Слава Україні 🇺🇦
Moves me to tears. Superb.
Their songs and lyrics really hit home. Amazing guys!!
I regularly listen to this track. Magnificent ❤️
Runrig spiller den MEST VIDUNDERLIGE musik - man kan forestille sig.♥️ Deres musik går lige til ♥️ HJERTET ♥️
Beautiful song
A monument! Apart from the occasion, they are and the remembrance is....
Such a beautiful poignant song.
My word isnt it just. As i know personally an ex British combatant now aged 99. Thank you Jimmy Clark and your brothers in arms for my freedom today.
Seen runrig at least 25 times , they where in a league of their own.
Pure emotion
The best composers, singers and musicians ever? Maby?
Hands down!👍
What song please.
No maybe about it, definitely the greatest.
I have no doubts at all, they are the most gifted talented group ever, their music will live on. That's what I say
Just beyond beautiful!
Absolutely fantastic I was there thanks for sharing
Os descubrí hace pocos años y para mí sois el mejor grupo de buena música
Stay with this! Amazing musicians !
Brings tears to my eyes
wow i love this band
In my view, Calum and Rory McDonald are the best songwriting partnership that there has ever been.
Love it 🎼🎹🎸🎤🤹🏻♀️ thanks Runrig 💃🏻💃🏻💃🏻
Amazing lyrics and music - really listen to it!!!
To the Ukrainian fighters as an ex black watch vet I wish I could stand with you freedom comes at a cost long live a free Ukraine
A song for Ukraine rise and fall by runrig stand tall you're fighting for freedom as my father did god is with you
Well said
can stand with the NAZIS if u want but don't piss on graves of WWI & WWII fallen as u do it!
слава україні героям слава 🇺🇦
I don't believe a single word of Ukraine, just like the Russians!
I love it and beautiful song
Another year gone! We will remember those lost no matter what! If our men and women give their lives they must be honoured
Amazing lyrics and music - really listen to it
Absolutely wonderful
Its sad that we remember two world wars and forget about all the others we have lost since. Korea and onwards, we don't learn much do we!.
So beautiful
Saw them in Glasgow 2016 and London 2018 perform this song.
Absolutely awesome piece of music ❤️❤️
Hi eat your heart out hank marvin and Mark knofler malcolm Jones is the 👑

Amazing stuff.
Beautiful
The poppies make me weep
What a great track
Sensational.
Superb..
Brilliant
I've seen the sunlight shining on the valley
I've seen the shadows darken on the deep
I've seen the young men riding out for glory
And broken in defeat
There was an hour that never knew a gloaming
The whole of life, enchanted in a day
And we'll be there, forever in the places
Where we used to be
Passing the hedgerows, moving through the orchards
Through the bocàge and breaking out for Caen
Dealing fear and all our dices loaded
With the courage of the dawn
And some will rise and some will fall
To gain the world or lose it all
And that time was mine to hear you
When you called
You were our youngest, brightest flower
Walking side by side through our darkest hour
We'll take this cup, this portion evermore
I've seen the last wave breaking on the beaches
I've seen the angels crying on the wire
I've seen the first star up and brightly shining
Couldn't rise much higher
Now we're waiting here not getting older
But we can dream like we can not believe
With all those fools, those great historic moments
That flatter to deceive.
And some will come and some will go
To rise on wings in skies of gold
Or to fall down to the final, silent cold
When I was young it burned so bright
The only son, a rising Christ
Now I'm left here in the fall-out of that light
The rise and fall
The rise and fall
The rise and fall
The rise and fall
The rise
And fall
Please come back runrig the best
We 🏴 stand with you Ukraine
Scottish and peoud amen Scottish children of god
Magic
Ny love....scotland
For our fallen Guardian Angel's.
What a Story.
Malcolm just takes the song.
What more can I add to that they are the best maybe I will get to see them live one day.
No chance , they have retired
Not live you won't but there are CD's that tell the story o the most underratedbabd ever.
Thanks to a bunch of of Self Centred DJ's and Channels thanks fir 40 years and mercy be for CD!s
Long life and happiness! Hope retirement isn't stagnation.
Individually they will probably make their own music, but as a group sadly I doubt it.
Go on Ukraine this song is for you XxX love you all
Heavy.
D.E.P.Bruce...
🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
what album is this song on?
The Story, brilliant album
What's the name ofthis song ?
Rise and fall
Faultless
Me too 😢😢😢😢❤️ 1:10
What song please?
"Rise and Fall"
Watch it on Facebook. Much better quality.
God be with the Ukraine military forces 🙏
Most of the Ukraine military are now with God (DEAD) if he exists. War is an abomination and those who shout the loudest for war have never seen war.
It's sad that 110 years later we are still killing each other! Two world wars, plus other conflicts! Why can't we just get on! Ignore politics and religion, politics is out for what they can get, religion! Not sure, every body has their own ideas and they always clash with somebody else.
