Never heard this song, or this singer before, but it's beautiful. Dunno why he popped up on my UA-cam. I have no memory of Scotland, just stories told to me. I was there in 1929, that's 95 years ago and I'm only barely 60-years-old now (think about it !). In the words of John Denver's country song, one day I hope I'll "be coming home, to a place I've never been before". (* ...because, back when I was in Scotland, I was still an egg in my mummy's tummy !)
Dear Dougie, your song was a calling i got even before i've put a foot on the land a wee bit later. It has been delivered through a guy,who got to know you.He is German and his name is Wulf Schnaase. He played the song and i could nae stop crying,i was crying so hard. Now so many years later,whereby i 've lived already 7 1/2 years in Alba ,i am waiting on the result of my appeal to get the right to remain. I am hearing your song and i want to thank you for opening up my soul's door. I love Scotland beyond measures and this love is something that will be - always❣ Who knows,maybe i am getting the chance to meet you and tell you the story.Loads of love,miracles and blessings to each n everyone from Alba🌈🐬Gabriele🐉🌺 PS: . ..let me tell you that i love you and that i think about you all the time Caledonia,you're calling me.....❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
It’s already our anthem. We’re British when it suits England. Andy Murray was a Scottish tennis player until he was successful (British after that) why don’t we have a British football team obviously cos Scotland are Shite (shame for the tartan arm tbh) why I in school we weren’t taught Scottish history. There’s no rhyme like “william, William Henry, Stephen” etc etc The school holidays are slightly different n the cartoons n child’s tv doesn’t start till the English kids wrap up for holidays In most case England equals Britain. I’d rather break from the circus of Westminster n rejoin the EU. Scotland has been independent longer than it’s been part of the union & always had European allies especially France. Who actually benefited from Brexit we’ve only been in the union 300yrs. A LLLOOOOONNNNGGG history before that not enough Scots are educated in hee own history. All that been said it was just over half of the fuckin Scots that voted to remain., there’sqq a whole generation of new votes?!
I heard this song in Australia 1982 when I emigrated . I cried when i heard it and eventually came home. But Im sad now because I think Scotland is Broken.
This is totally disrespectful to the memory of Stan Rogers as well as to his brother Garnet. I hope this video is going to be removed as soon as possible.
Love this song one of my closest friends played and sang it so loved 😊
Beautiful song, well done Dougie.
Great Song...
One of my fav's. So very moving & special ❤ Thank You Dougie😊

Thankyou Dougie , I chande the city to mine when I sing ,I do believe you meant it that way ❤
Just what I needed, thanks.
Hits deep in Scottish souls, pure class!
You know it mate, it's a good one :^)
Ich liebe diesen Song. Er ist so melancholisch.
I have to listen to this song, and cry, each time it shows on my UA-cam recommendations.
Me as well!
When independence comes, as it surely must, this should be the national anthem.
Haha not you jokers again.

I'm coming home soon Alba
That's the first time I heard someone singing the Highland cathedral 😢😢😢
2024 near all the best 🎉
Lovely song 🎉 didn't know Neil Oliver was a muso!😅

I never left but it’s broken
Pity your fancy graphics mean the words are slow behind the song, kinda pointless really.
This is totally disrespectful to the memory of Stan Rogers as
well as to his brother Garnet. I hope this video is going to be removed as soon as possible.
In what way?
Stan and Garnet Rogers were awesome musicians, but why is Dougie MacLean singing his own song disrespectful to them?
Great Song..
