Thanks for your comment re Karine. I agree wholeheartedly. I was in tears when I listened to her "King of Birds". She seems to be a very natural, unaffected young woman with enormous talent. All the very best to her.

Just played this on our ukuleles here in Busselton Western Australia for our concert gig, got the best feedback thank you

[@sunshine53andsong]

Magnificent. A hauntingly beautiful version.

[@Ohio_GirlLivingLife]

Why do I feel so connected to a place I've never been? Well I hope to go there some day.

What a beautiful rendition of a beautiful song,a lovely mix of voices and the flute (Titanic style) is to die for. Yes Foreverspring Karine sung with a passion and enthusiasm ,you could feel the joy in her voice. I am not Scottish and I had not heard the song before but I just can't stop playing it now.

As an expatriate Scot . I am divided . .Australia has been good to me . .and I value my life here and all the friends I've made . . .but . .at heart . .I'm still a Scot . .

[@lizgray5750]

Tom Hunter I feel the same way. Canada & US have been home for decades - but I go Home to Scotland and come back to the US!

Amazing song

[@foreverspring]

Thanks!!! She's incredible!!

[@foreverspring]

Who is the female singer standing next to Dougie? She has such a charming personality and a beautiful voice! This is one song of all the songs ever that I always sob and gulp my way through. I love it. I love Dougie's voice, his guitar playing, his personality!!! What a winner!!!! Wonder will this masterpiece ever become the national anthem of Scotland?

[@erikrosenslr5319]

The female singer are Karine Polwart

[@strumbadstroller7350]

Incredible she certainly is, Amazing, wonderful & full of humility, light & compassion. She was a social worker before she became able to make a living as a musician & so is able to draw on a broad range of issues for her song writing. Go see her perform, she really is Incredible. Take some tissues with you though, she moves some people to tears with some of her songs, that's not to say that she's a misery though, far from it.

[@jamesdippie220]

Stunning performance of Dougie MacLean's song. Other musicians I believe include: Barbara Dickson, Karine Polwart, Eddi Reader, Julie Fowlis, Dick Gaughan, Ross Ainslie, John McCusker, Aly Bain, Phil Cunningham, Kris Drever, Ralph McTell and Rab Noakes. Not sure of the others but should be - sorry!

[@Kgilstrap1]

Wow! That is just great. I'm familiar with Dougie and Eddi, but would like to know who all the other singers and performers are.

[@hollyhunter7]

makes me proud to be a scot,,,,,brilliant

[@liamgarland1425]

This song has so much power but it is a true story of the world we live?be happy Liamp atrick Madeira 40 fearless for the good of the people

[@h2okie702]

“I don’t know if you can see the changes coming over me …”

[@DaveHedgehogMason]

Is that Mary Chapin Carpenter standing to Dougie's right?

[@gaeliccara]

It's Karine Polwart !

[@deniseorr9504]

Where can I get this version on CD

[@glasgowbrian1469]

I really hope this becomes the National anthem rather than Flower of Scotland, which is too nationalistic for me. A love song to Scotland is right after the heart of Robert Burns. Well done Dougie - I could sing it forever.

[@terryswinamer719]

I see Ralph McTeal in the back row.

[@spanishsteve2501]

Why the hell is this not the Scottish National Anthem ????

[@johng1420]

It could well be a good contender...

[@strumbadstroller7350]

I'm not Scottish, but she makes me proud to be a socialist.

[@petropavlovskkamchatskiy1917]

Terrible version of a great song. Dolores Keane sings a MUCH better version of this song.

[@salamanco968]

Be quiet and be thought of as a fool.

[@annesmith592]

Brilliant song but prefer Frankie Miller singing it.
