There's nothing more prouder than a Scottish soldier marching to the pipes and drums. I used to love doing it. The proudest day was when I passed out the Depot Infront of my family.
Now that is the most beautiful sight in the world. I miss my Scottish Grandfather so much. Tears for my Grandpa who is in Heaven looking down at these handsome men and I can see him marching with these soldiers and I want to march with him forever.
Love the pipes guaranteed to lift your spirit no matter what. Plus the Lads that formed the guard of honour were as ever impeccably presented Proud of You All.
I love you my family in Scotland, and Edinburgh is a wonderful place.so great to see the pipe bands down the Royal Mile. All the very best to you all for Christmas and 2022. ❤
On my bucket list is to travel to the Isle of Skye to the place where my ancestors left from in 1852, on the ship ( HIES Ontario) record it is listed as Bernisdale Skeabost. Cheers and thanks for posting from Australia
Bony, you must be very proud. I'm sure he's playing his pipe wherever he's now. Do you happen to know the name to the piece they're playing? Light going your way! Happy 2022 🙌🏼
I love this.... great pipes and drums. Respect to these guys. I hope the guy (Jim) knows the army well. He is ruing the view of all the people who have been waiting for hours to see this parade.
Oh so beautiful just can't get enough of them I love watching them and some said in the comments really lift up your spirits but that lord Hamilton looks like a mannequin thank you Jim for posting
Absolutely fantastic ... I've just returned from Edinburgh ... what a fantastic city ... this video is the icing on the cake and a wonderful start to the day ... thank you SO much for posting
I'd give a lot to know what the guy riding with the crown in the Rolls is thinking. Wonder what his job title is? Scotland forever. Pipers & drummers, many respects. I do so love a military parade & the pipe & drums make it top of mark. It's hard to get enough of this.
Ye cannae get better than a military Pipe and Drum band complete wi'a Drum Major !! Me wee sister hates the bagpipes, but Ah cannae see why, her havin' been tae Edinburgh and the Royal Mile many a time !! Pipes and Drums, By The Centre, Quick... March !!
My Great, Great, Great, Great Grandfather Thomas J. Clephane came to The United States in 1821 and married an American Woman and lived in Kentucky and had Six Sons. My name is Thomas B Clephane.
I am an admirer of the Emperor Napoleon. But …don’t they just look and sound glorious! Honor to them. A tough a glorious bunch! I would however rather see them holding a Brown Bess
Mr. Ramsay, some of the horn players who play the Tuba style horn look like they have a leather nappy wrapped around the bottom end of the instrument. What is it for?
I think it was probably the Scottish Crown Jewels or Honours of Scotland. They are kept in Edinburgh Castle. Maybe they were being taken out somewhere or just part of the parade.
Seems to me they are probably more intent on doing their job by scoping out the crowd for any trouble than trying to keep in synchronized step with the soldiers, which, in my opinion, is more important. The bands are magnificent! Nothing like a pipe & drum band/corps. Quite invigorating & most moving.
So what's the reason why one can see a black Rolls Royce (?) Behind the troops with a crown inside the car and a fella inside. In one case one could see a young fella sitting behind the crown.
Isn't it amazing walking in those polished cobbles with so many centuries of history they have seen. Edinburgh council should stop trying to sanitise all walking surfaces for fear of litigation suits
"Shortbread tin pipers", as favoured by the Queen of England, walking the "polished" cobbles. That would HAVE to be Edinburgh. As a Glaswegian, I much prefer Clanadonia.
She is the Queen of Scotland and of Scottish blood and when in Scotland I would imagine that she would prefer not to be called the Queen of England. She is also correctly called the Queen of the UK .This parade is to bring the Crown of Scotland to the Opening of the Scottish Parliament by HM the Queen of Scotland
@@frogleg10 Do you live in SCOTLAND? Why don't you emigrate to E*GLAND, where you belong? You, & all others of your type. The Queen of ENGLAND, (& their repulsive, anachronistic monarchy) is top of the odious English social class "pyramid".
@@Joe_Peroni There hasn't been a Queen of England or Scotland for over 300 years... Regardless of what army these soldiers are serving in, they are taking part in a centuries-old Scottish tradition. There are units in the Canadian army that keep these same Scottish traditions alive e.g. the Black Watch of Canada, because many Scots emigrated to Canada and took their traditions with them. You don't have to be unequivocally in favour of the union with England to appreciate the centuries-old traditions on display here, because these traditions are not only found in the British army. Scottish soldiers played bagpipes when fighting alongside the French (as part of the Auld Alliance against England) at the Siege of Orléans in the Hundred Years' War in the 1400s. In the 1600s, Scottish soldiers marched to the pipes in the Green Brigade fighting for the Protestant Lion of the North, Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden. Later on, Scottish Jacobite rebels played the pipes while fighting against the Protestant Succession of Great Britain and Ireland. Once the Jacobites were finally defeated, British army regiments raised from Jacobite clans fought against the French and conquered Canada for Britain. Scottish soldiers have gone to war in many armies and in many countries playing these pipes. A more recent example is your family's country of Italy, which Scottish soldiers helped liberate as part of the British army in the Second World War, playing the pipes as they did so. This kind of military parade is Scottish in origin and therefore takes place in any military unit with Scottish connections, including Scottish regiments in the only army that recruits in Scotland itself, the British army. For better or worse, the Scottish martial tradition is a part of our heritage as Scots, regardless of politics. I'm not a diehard monarchist, but the present queen has a level of respect for her even handedness as head of state that no politician would ever have, because she belongs to no party. As for the elitist nature of the British class system - Scotland is not much better than England in that regard. We have our own private schools and former pupils of these private schools are disproportionately influential in Scotland e.g. both Humza Yousaff, an SNP government minister and Anas Sarwar, the Scottish Labour leader went to the same Glasgow private school. Yes, that's right, Glaswegians can be elitist too, not just Edinburgers! Scotland isn't as egalitarian as I would like it to be and probably all Scottish political parties are to blame for this inequality, because many of Scotland's politicians have benefitted from it.

Nothing better looking than a man in kilts. Love the pipes. So proud to have a wee bit of Scottish blood.
No matter how much any army in the world tries, the sound of a Scottish marching band is just unbeatable !! greetings from Argentina !

The military tradition is strong among the Scots; it is less pronounced in the other parts of the UK.
No so

What was the man in the car doing?
He is the Duke of Hamilton who is in charge of The Crown of Scotland which is being transported in the rolls royce
Godspeed.
What doess 'proudy parade' mean in English?
👏👏👏👌🙌🙌
I couldn’t see which Royal was in the limo.
I think it was probably the Scottish Crown Jewels or Honours of Scotland. They are kept in Edinburgh Castle. Maybe they were being taken out somewhere or just part of the parade.
¿Y por qué los policías no llevan el mismo paso que los gaiteros?🏴
And why don't the policemen take the same step as the pipers?
Seems to me they are probably more intent on doing their job by scoping out the crowd for any trouble than trying to keep in synchronized step with the soldiers, which, in my opinion, is more important.
The bands are magnificent! Nothing like a pipe & drum band/corps. Quite invigorating & most moving.

The young man inside is escorting the Crown of Scotland to the opening of the Scottish Parliament by HM the Queen of Scotland
👍👏👏👏👏👏👏🎼🎼🎼🎼
What a sound ...feel like showing my bum to the GOV! great...
I actually like bagpipes when they play tunes and not just ramblings....like this.
The beat in the first walk makes any house DJ look like an amateur
The amount of people using their phones in portrait my soul cries.
STOP IT. Please.
As to the Bands and Troops crack on guys.
