Horrible Histories - William Wallace Song

Rock out with Scottish rebel William Wallace as he tells his story in song.

[@TopBanana1127]

If Scotland become independent this better be the national anthem.

[@MrMrCoshy]

Yas come on son, maybe no the national anthem maybe at Scotland games haha

[@deadchannel9282]

That would be cool I'm scottish

[@shadydruglord2533]

I am too young to vote :( but at least I have faith and my heart lives in Scotland!

[@shadydruglord2533]

[@leaisnotonfire1618]

[@peerzadazayyanahmad]

I learnt more on history from HH than I ever did from the History Channel.

[@me-dc8pj]

Me too, as with school

[@helenpugh1480]

SAME

[@goodnight-moon564]

Zaima & Zaara Same. Learnt more from this show than I have at school too

[@lucyhogan7172]

​@@me-dc8pjHorrible histories gives you ALL sides of the story, wheras the history channel and school books only have one side of the story.

[@saintniccage2818]

Cause this is for kids and your slow?

[@JonathanToolonie]

If Wallace really sang this then I would follow him in a heartbeat.

[@bossofall98]

Same. This is one of my personal favourites

[@goodnight-moon564]

JonathanToolonie Same! I love this song.When the show was on TV, it was one of my favs (and it still is)

[@ErinC918]

I love the look on Ben's face when he says, "Guess he didn't like me much." Understatement of the millennia!

[@allsco751]

"POSSIBILY 6 FOOT SEVEN!" Love it

[@Bjorn308]

"Bridge collapsed, hundreds drowned - OF COURSE I KILLED THE REST!" - bloody good line, hahah.

[@Femmchantress]

"POSSIBLY SIX FOOT SEVEN" I DIED at that. xD

[@user-tc2ie3db3z]

Ditto!

As a 28 year old, do you still like the song?

[@reborndiajack9612]

@@VantaDraws my dad loves them all and hes 60 soon

[@VantaDraws]

@@reborndiajack9612 that’s brilliant, good for him for having amazing taste

[@tsukishiro70]

As a Scot, I love this song. Best Scottish accent from an English actor EVER doesn't hurt much either.

[@Bocchiiii]

Imagining learning the words to Flower of Scotland when you can learn the words to William Wallace Scottish Rebel

[@gailychanx3]

I remember trying to tell some of my English friends about William Wallace, one of them thought he was a modern day actor... I'm so thankful for Horrible Histories

[@stupidintellect90]

I named my chicken William Wallace. Bravest little chicken around. A few years back when he was just a little chick, he fell and broke his leg. We thought he was going to die, we did everything we could, I attatched a splint to his leg and brought him into my room because he couldn't move around to feed. He's made a full recovery now, got a bit of a limp but grown into a beautiful cockeral.

[@rolypolyropalolyst]

"This isn't historically accurate!" but the music "But hist--" *The. Music.*

[@KhushiD99]

ive heard this one!!!!

[@rolypolyropalolyst]

I've heard all of them :D HH has really nice songs, wouldn't you agree?

[@KhushiD99]

yaasss!!! they r hilarious

[@maximumgames2990]

Tara Louise Although the dance moves need much work,

[@8Rincewind]

Tara Louise Is it inaccurate? Is it really all that inaccurate, or is it just minor details? I mean these songs aren't exactly text books but if I quote this what might I say that's wrong. For example the Suffragette's song suggests women were given the vote after working during World War 1, but actually it was only married women over 30 who's husbands owned land and the government only did this because most of the men fighting in the war couldn't vote either, so they couldn't very well give men the vote and then not the women. So the inaccuracy there is the governments attitude and how much right women actually won; but in passing conversation it's enough to say 'Women got the vote after WW1" (though now I'd say 'many women got the vote after WW1'). Is that the level of accuracy we're talking about or is it something more glaring.

[@SeraphimSound]

i LOVE that " Guess he didn't like me much'' small smile! ;)

[@horsesrock081]

LOL love his face when he says "guess he didn't like me much!"

[@SecretSquirrelFun]

My favourite line is at around 1:00 “William Wallace Scottish rebel, possibly 6 foot 7 But at that really matters is I sent English men to heaven.” It’s just that line - “possibly 6 foot 7” It totally cracks me up every time I hear it. Very clever lyrics indeed. Thanks for sharing this video, much appreciated 🙂🐿

[@ImagenaryFriendd]

Imagine singing this in a singing booth in a studio .. That'd be hilarious :3

[@greythomas6199]

I can imagine the cast singing the songs about to burst out in laughter

[@Frostynix44]

I love these Horrible History Shows.... I'm 48!! If this was our History classes.. I woulda known way more about History today!! I'm still learning now

[@iffi839]

I am from Pakistan.. and I really respect Sir William Wallace for the struggle of freedom for his country fellows..

[@beccaloveslego]

Love the whole series of H.H. Especially the songs, Albert hall show was amazing.

[@alinemerrow]

Pure awesomeness, still can't believe something as fab as Horrible Histories exists nowadays.

[@XxswishyXfishyxX]

"The important thing is, I sent Englishmen to... HEAVEN!" xD

[@shedandcabbage]

yeh that's wrong

[@bunnyrogers3818]

How on earth do they do all of those different accents?! I wish I could!

[@Stupimations]

probably practiced

[@lauramccartney9081]

This should of been what they sung when it was the Scottish wars of independence was happening (when Wallace was battling)

[@AdrianShephardOpposing]

if i had a time machine i'd go back in time and tell wallace to sing this.

[@limbobilbo8743]

Playing axes (lol), swords and other weapons as musical instruments is one of my favourite reoccuring bits in horrible histories

[@sillyuchiha]

"Possibly six foot seven" cracks me up every time.

[@CommodoreRayne.IMP.C-1824]

" Celebrated Stirling Bridge, another Scottish win; by decorating my sword with the English General's *skin* " is so metal. I love that line 😂

[@shellt2390]

American here. That's a true rocker! He can jam!!!!

[@rocgrl63]

I think Ben Willbond (William Wallace) is so handsome. I love this song; one of the best on HH, imo.

[@littlemisssuper1]

im irish and proud!!! i love this song because it shows how much he loved his country! bit like me! littlemisssuper1 irish rebel!!!

[@BroomfeildGal]

i really hope that they play this at the HH prom, complete with amazing fireworks!

[@shaunalynch8948]

Love this song . I'm Irish , part English and part Scottish and my gran is welsh !!!!

[@srahmanblake]

great song! one of my favourites

[@shadydruglord2533]

I don't even know why I enjoy this!

[@itsbananapeel]

Love this video and song! Never gets old!!

[@Lorecastapendragon]

I look exactly like the guy singing this, is he my long lost brother?

[@staceykayw]

Lucky you!

[@chalriemissingham6369]

maybe

[@____Ai____]

Wow, if you could shave of the beard, could I marry you please (as I'll never get to marry Ben Willbond)?

[@CurtHowland]

Just discovered Horrible Histories, and I'm HOOKED! Thank you!

[@jessicalouisemusic8467]

"Ooh I'm scared, not!" Hahaha! That's what i say! they go running!

[@ProfessorPlantPot]

I'm English and I think William Wallace was a hero. Just like Richard Lionheart is an English hero.

[@spidersniper8]

Awesome by far the worlds best TV programe william walluce scotish rebel is awesome!

[@ShonaLavellan]

This is even funnier when I put this in context of my history education in a scottish school. Honestly if they just played this in first year history in scottish schools it would save a lot of bother.

[@Grakmole]

He was also cut into quarters and they were sent to various parts of scottland as a warning

[@10Shivi]

"Did I have a wife or no, do you really care?"

[@NEILAMALONE]

love the song - no wonder hadrien's wall was built to keep us scots away - great way to educate kids about history + FUN too!!!!!

[@ealingstop10songswithdanny90]

I Love this

[@FandPrulethesky]

I watched Braveheart last night and kept humming this song. After a hour my brother in law demanded I leave the room :) lol

[@fred9136]

horrible histories....by far the best tv show of all time....

[@spazzy69]

Forget Englishmen, Ben sends ME to heaven!

[@MegaZippoking]

Im 18 and i love this program.

[@Thebiggestgameaddict]

This is my favourite HH song it's so catch

[@kingnikolaj]

"Oh I'm scared.. NOT!!!"

[@ChristiaLAH]

2:12 WHAT A BEAUTIFUL SMILE.

[@viciouswolf1111]

I think this is quite funny and I'm happy that an English program is teaching about the losses of the English as well. They better have mentioned Bannockburn though.

[@DogOfKrondor]

Great song, correct or not and these guys really love playing axe guitars (also see the Viking song).

[@Crazydoll50]

We’re going in the history books with this one 🗣️🔥

[@helenfosterhall7566]

That looks that THE MOST fun thing to film!!!

[@suicune162333]

my ancestors were from Scotland i love that place my family also owned the Loch ness castle too

[@Stariod1994]

Am I the only one that laughed of the 'WOOOHOHOHO!' and the 'YYYYYEEEAAAAAHH!!!'

[@MCRxox11]

In Scotland they learn so much about him and his home town they have no school named after saints but William Wallace public school

[@BroomfeildGal]

OMG i could be seein this live in two weeks!

[@SpongeyTheEditor]

so awesome

[@irnbrusugarfree4797]

This was it. The whole referendum.

[@T4rt4nt4z]

One great video Wallace truly does rock !!

[@spazzy69]

This song is fantastic. Would love to see one about Australia, there's plenty of topics: First Fleet, killing the Aboriginies, Bush Rangers, Ned Kelly, Eureka Stockade, Gallipolli etc.

[@prune6001]

2:07 pulled my guts out, guess he didn't like me much :)

[@spazzy69]

Ben looks incredibly macho (and hot), Simon looks like a wild bear of a man, Mat totally rocks out, Larry does his sexy *make love to the camera with my eyes* thing at 1:50, Jim's sneer and hair are priceless, and lots of bare chests! It doesn't get any better than this!

[@Eleglas]

Actual commanders would rather lose. Often those who committed dishonourable acts were charged, and some took their own lives instead of facing the shame. However that said, one of the greatest dishonours a commander could face would be to lose their regiment's colours and still live. To quote Hogan from Sharpe: "You've lost the Colours, sir. The King's own Colours, touched by his own hand. Now take my advice, and a pistol, and go behind that tent, and blow out what's left of your brains."

[@phoroz1905]

One of my favorite songs

[@MrCaptainLarry]

This was the whole pyrotechnics budget for the season

[@mimi3570]

About to watch braveheart for the first time in my life, thought id refresh my memory first

[@Cocarat206]

Still more accurate then Braveheart. xD

[@PublicBenemyNum1]

Wallace is the best. NEVER mess with him.

[@Tvdiet]

I'm amazed none of these songs are on iTunes the tv Series are but no songs makes no sense songs were the best part of the show

[@misssupercookie2011]

OK even if my history teacher puts this on in class i am still dancing and headbanging!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOOOOOOOOW

[@spazzy69]

It makes you fabulous!

[@InnannasRainbow]

I never really knew all that much about William Wallace other than he was Scottish, a rebel and hated the English but now I am quite interested in learning more but it seems that all that is 'known' about him is conjecture and very little real facts. Anyway, I love the Scotts and bagpipes.

[@manheap12]

I never thought it possible. A HH song I haven't seen.

[@no-oneX]

Wonderful. love it
