I miss the series, the music and Adrian Paul. Loved when Duncan and Conner would meet up. Wish Adrian would have done at least one more season, for a proper ending...ahhh and the scenes that were filmed in Scotland...breathtaking in its beauty. Glad I was able to ride around through the highlands of Scotland....at least one check of the bucket list.
Loved this movie and the series too. My youth... Didn't recognized the actress who played Heather in Poldark, always wondered what happened to her, loved her in her role.
Its 2012 and I have just seen Highlander: Endgame the final scean between Conner and Duncan was a tear jerker for me. "You or I can not face him alone,but together we can". In the end there can be only one.
low i see before me, the line of my people, back to the beginning, and they call to me, to take my place in the halls of Valhalla where the brave shall live forever
I've been listening to Lorena Mckennit since the 70's when she released 'The Mummers Dance' . Great video, thanx for posting it. The tv series and the movies live on in my heart forever. I couldn't imagine the pain you would go through watching your 'love' grow old and passing on, time and again.
This song is about the clearance of the Irish Oak Forests to build English warships, from a forest near Lough Neagh in N.Ireland. Portmore Castle was demolished at the same time (1660s). Many locals still talk (from stories handed down) about how the landscape looked before the destruction. Not Scottish, but beautiful still.
The similar story is how Venice was build on timber columns from woods from neighbouring Croatia leaving the baren land to merciles wind bora, which then had blown the soil off leaving just rock.
Everlasting heart touching song of highlander. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏. Love from India Anirban Nandy.
Being part Scots I have loved this song since hearing it at the end of Highlander 3. Took me a while to find it and so glad I have. If I get to the pearly gates I sure hope they are playing this.
@chewie211171 it is an Irish traditional folk song which details the centuries of Ireland's old oak forests, specifically The Great Oak of Portmore, being leveled for military and shipbuilding purposes. The song laments the destruction of the Ornament Tree, an old oak which is believed to have stood near Portmore Lough, County Antrim.
The Breacan an Fhéilidh (belted plaid) or Féileadh Mòr (great plaid) is 7 - 9 yards of 60" wide wool plaid, pleated by hand and belted on. The Great Kilt should hang no more or less than 1 inch above or below the knees. The excess is worn bundled behind and tucked into the belt or in an over the shoulder/under the arm manner joined by a large C shaped pin or brooch called a Penannular
It was also in the series finale as part of a retrospective montage on the life of Duncan MacLeod. Though, that version was sung by Laura Creamer (whose version I prefer). Loreena's was used in the third Highlander film.
Thank you soooo much for adding this information. I'm here in America and have so much to learn about my mother's heritage. I love this song and now love it more for the understanding you've provided. Again, thank you.
My daughter passes out to this amazing song every time we proud to be Scottish decent and I would love to see the highlands where my ancestors hail from.. Scotland forever
@lawrence4566 In the first movie, it was Queen's "It's A Kind of Magic". This song was played at the end of the the third and fourth movie and the tv series finale.
Been following/listening to Lorenna for about 5 years now and finally managed to catch a performance in Birmingham Town Hall UK on Sunday 10th March. Now, I'm generally not motivated to jump online and post/reccomend about stuff like this..... however, just need to share this with her massive group of fans. At first I thought it was just the difference between listening on speakers at home then at the venue but whatever recording you listen to it WILL NOT do her voice justice!! Incredible and amazing! Enjoy
Its Great song....i was born and raised in Scotland and Serve it the British Army in the Territorial Army in the Royal Regiment of Scotland and have as such served in Iraq and Afghanistan a few times (and in fact flew home last week)....who cares where it came from or its Scottish conection....its still good Thanks for posting it........
to be proud of who and where you come from is a Scottish trait and one that i hope will live on we are a proud race and shall never falter for our home i am Scottish born and bred and always shall be no matter wher i go , SCOTLAND THE BRAVE , never a truer word said
@jsamboy It's called Bonny Portmore by Loreena McKennitt & was used in Highlander III: The Final Dimension. Laura Creamer did a version that was used in Highlander: The Series episode Homecoming. Also, Highlander: Endgame this time with Jennifer McNeil doing the vocals.
@chewie21117there are many stories and such as to what the song was really about but as far as I can tell it is an Irish traditional folk song which details the centuries of Ireland's old oak forests, specifically The Great Oak of Portmore, being leveled for military and shipbuilding purposes. The song laments the destruction of the Ornament Tree, an old oak which is believed to have stood near Portmore Lough, County Antrim.
My grandfather was a "lady from hell" - He was an Argyll and Sutherland highlander and I still have his Glengarry but they were from the FIRST world war. Still I echo your sentiments!!!
I am english and i am glad that we are all now peacefull neighbours and i like the french and the germans (except your footie team !! ) who always beat us, Loreenas music calms the savage breast.
@watutuboy This just in from Wikipedia and confirmed from her own bio on her website...McKennitt was born in Morden, Manitoba of Irish and Scottish descent to parents Jack (died 1992; a livestock dealer) and Irene McKennitt (1931-2011; a nurse). She moved to Stratford, Ontario in 1981, where she still resides.
@@williammitchell1864No, Bonnie is Scottish for beautiful. Connor even refers to her as "My Bonnie Heather" in the first film, when he is lighting a candle in the church for her.
Someone may some doesn't know Highlander never loved again after the death of his first wife.He had told that on 2 last ones.For me 1rst and second was the best
@twinky666666 there is an article on Wikipedia that has more detail but, Rawlinson did not actually create the walking kilt and his claim to have done so has been historically proven to be suspect if not false altogether. The story behind Rawlinson is that he claimed he came up with the short kilt as a response to the Great kilt being impractical for highlanders in his charcoal production facility.
I am Norskk and I long for home time has come so fast and the gathering is real it is not a blessing to live long its a burden and time has come we long for this to end, watching family die is so painful. we will be the true ones soon be blessed in all you do and LOVE LOVE is the key its all there IS!. Pray light will win I love you..
