Hue and Cry - Mother Glasgow (TV 1990)

[@agoraphobicsocialite6897]

Wonderful song. I'm proud to be a Glaswegian ... 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💙🤍💙

[@Jas.Jasper]

Lost my Mam last year. She was born in a tenement in Scotstoun, and did most of her growing up in Drumchaple. This song gave me comfort at a shitty time

[@jimduffy1967]

God bless you and your mum minty.

[@sharonmargaretstewart8341]

We dedicated this to my mums service when she passed away last September will always be a speacial song to my beautiful mum thanks 🦋😇👼🙏🙏❤️

[@junglie5055]

A great song to bring the emotions out. All you love to you and yours Sharon.

[@dirkbogarde44]

When Pat sings without all the production, the angels soar !

[@Waddabouchi]

He has the most beautiful voice, ever. ❤☘️

[@scotthowe6324]

Really amazing song the unofficial national anthem of Glasgow unreal songwriting

[@AlanHope2013]

I come back to this video every time I think of my home city, and it brings back everything from the Merchant Chippie to my parents' house, which is all my early life in fact. That's what Mother Glasgow is, really: The Glasgow that lives within us. Billy or Tim, her succour is perpetual.

[@TheSmittenKitten007]

Beyond proud to be Glaswegian

[@helenfearon4377]

Not born nor lived in Glasgow..I'm 9 miles away in Bellshill so I'm near enough to love the place .. These brilliant singing brothers Hue n Cry,.... Greg & Pat Kane are from Coatbridge just up the road from me This is by far, the best version of the song ..

[@IanWilson-es4wi]

I am a weegie, but the best Scottish voice I've ever been in the same room with is also from Coatbridge - J J Gilmour. What's the chances?

[@LiamsTechAccademy]

Me too

[@TheJJHawk]

A vastly underated pair of brothers.......extremely talented boys.....

[@jimcorlett]

Greg was in friends again wae my brother in law

[@kevinrobertson2068]

Beautiful song I’ve never forgotten. I’m an Edinburgh boy born of Kilbirnie Ayrshire roots. I’m western at heart.

[@MichaelJohnAnthony]

A sweet and honest rendition.

[@christopherrussell2611]

I was born & bred in Glasgow. Went to Garnetbank School. Many decades later, living & working here & abroad, this song swells my heart. I do remember the starling in the Wesr End. I love & miss you all Love to you all, Jane

[@jimduffy1967]

I love this song , brilliant tearful uplifting song ,and I'm not a weegie,I'm an east coaster ,but this is a brilliant song about a brilliant city.

[@jimduffy1967]

Lovely song this ,brings a tear to my eye every time.

[@emiscand]

1990.I was young but felt glasgow was really at the start of something new and fresh. It was changing and has chang d many times since. Felt 1990s may have been it's best for me. Happy if others think it's better now though.

[@sandymunroe5962]

Llived in England since 1958, but I still love going back to my home city. Lived in a part Argyle St long demolished. But I get back once or twice a year to Cowcaddens, where my 94 yr old cousin lives. go to the Station Bar, Atholl arms and Lauders amongs others and have a wee swally.

[@rustyblairy4102]

Never forget your home mate lauders great pub too

[@christopherrussell2611]

God bless you Glasgow & ALL YOUR OCCUPANTS - left Glasgow C4 in 1964. Was a pupil of Garnet Bank, I miss you, starlings & all! - your always in my heart, Im in the South, worked in Europe, but I’m proud to say I’m Glaswegian 100 percent Thanks lads for this beautiful rendition Jane Russell xx

[@peterhamilton2695]

A great dundonian who wrote a song for our Glasgow brothers and sisters

[@fionaogungbaro515]

Rip Michael Marra ❤️❤️❤️

[@jeanybean6493]

Glasgow weeps for her lost weans today....gone but always with us..from a fellow Glaswegian x

[@jeanybean6493]

Such an appropriate song x

[@stephendyke489]

For a while in the early 90s I was in a piano vocalist duo and I was slightly obsessed by Hue and Cry . The other main benefit of this was through this song I discovered the wonderful music,comedy and performance of Michael Marra , he got very little attention down here in England

[@ceecee5105]

No, you’re cutting onions right now! Beautiful don’t which ALWAYS get me emotional 🥲🙂

[@MrCurrango]

I haven't seen the starlings over Glasgow for a long long time. It's been even longer since I seen anyone wearing that angel jaiket troop/british-knights/spx sannies combo that Greg Kane is sporting either. Great video. Happy times.

[@scotthowe6324]

So underrated beautiful song about our glesga

[@GooseMcSwan]

Their mum was my health visitor as a baby! Im now a big fan of theirs.

[@Nds39]

RIP Michael Marra.

[@enph10029]

ah've been gone for decades. ah love this song

[@edwardconway2285]

Excellent 👌👌

[@deanntag]

I love these guys and I love Glasgow!xxx

[@helenfearon4377]

Love this ..Best version of all ‼️

[@jimgrieves6841]

Thoughts and prayers to all the families who were tragically involved in the devastating accident,we are in shock here in Canada watching the scenes from Glasgow.

[@quinnmorlotti]

Glasgow is a wonderful place! It's full of adventure, culture, history and light! It's one of the most beautiful places! And its not a dump, someplaces could be taken care of better but its not a dump!

[@jimduffy1967]

Glasgow is a beautiful city , very cultured city,but it lets itself down every July,it allows this bigoted parade to go on , which would be totally barred in England,so for all this Glasgow welcome pish ,that's good as long as your not Catholic,can you imagine a band parading l.past a mosque and being allowed to shout down Allah,no it would not be allowed,but in bonnie Scotland you are still allowed to parade up and down against catholics, Scotland my arse.

[@Dwiewanna]

I so love hue and cry! Glasgow is the best! xx

[@ledivo59]

... then and now, Pat still a cute guy and an exquisite singer!

[@andrewbluebells2370]

Glesga is in my blood!, love this wee tune 💖

[@PurpleBeattie]

I just love this x

[@TheMerseyBoy]

Love the city. Glasgow is a home from home.

[@carole8957]

My childhood home.

[@ajsctech8249]

This song from Kane is a hybrid of a Hymn and a national anthem. Its total genius from the Gospal chord progression and feel and the Lyrics are so heart felt and authentic. Genius

[@ButeHouse6ChSq]

Great song and very well sung by young Pat Kane.

[@allanmcginness8568]

So relevant today. God Bless Glasgow my home.

[@McSynth]

Michael Marra - a one off talent who will be misssed.

[@LameTV1]

Lovely song , wonderful city.

[@piglet6565]

so underated,great band x

[@ronaldsampson4038]

Just a brilliant song beautiful lyrics

[@gigizack]

We need more artists like these

[@hatrob1]

hue and cry are performing in vicar street this may.This kane boy has the best voice i,ve heard ever.

[@eightiesmusic1984]

It is excellent but not as good as Jennifer Rush and Kate Bush in my view. Looking For Linda is one of my favourite songs. I saw them live in Leicester in early 1989.

[@Gerryquiff]

Still a wonderful song

[@windowledge731]

I see 8 dislikes here boil your head's disliker's and listen To the lyrics

[@C12SLK]

Thank you for lovely music, RIP.

[@connorclark4630]

Brilliant man

[@garrymeredith4039]

My thoughts go out to all this tragedy has affected

[@andrewparker3563]

As others have said - sublime. But then, Glasgow is prone to being sublime at any given moment.

[@weedrugimcdowall443]

God bless the people involved at george sq today..... we shall get through this

[@killiestevie]

Should've been the anthem for the commonwealth games.

[@martinsmiffy6753]

A city not without its problems but it’s home and although I now live elsewhere I still get a thrill as the plane swoops in over the clyde or the intercity 125 batters that last wee bit from Motherwell to glasgow central !

[@eightiesmusic1984]

If you were advising someone on the best places to see and things to do in a weekend in Glasgow, what are the highlights? Me and my wife have often thought about visiting on the train from Preston so it is not too far.

[@m0rdred1971]

sublime !!

[@briansummers-uz5bd]

Painted his house in Battlefield massive big flat many moon's ago when these 2 and TEXAS were all good freind's,i got to know through a wee guy from whiteinch ....Sooooo Goooood

[@jamescooper6679]

Love this

[@ericbryant7823]

in town today .. the people are stunned with respect and sadness ,, RIP people your city loves you

[@morganmauler]

A song about Glasgow written by a Dundonian, performed by the boys from Coatbridge.

[@KellyCook]

To all the people tragically lost their lives today #clutha x may u rest in peace

[@kinneucher]

And a year later in George Square.

[@starskymusic]

I've managed to support Michael and Hue and Cry !

[@planetpaulblog]

Actually, this taken from a programme called 'This is Me Since Yesterday' a documentary looking at Glasgow in its Year of Culture.

[@jomurphy4598]

I love this, so sublime, william wallace stays alive in all of us fenians!!!!

[@sparklepop2000]

The best song from them

[@peterscott1498]

Fantastic song for a great city. It’s a shame to see the way some people treat it these days all because football is life or death. This goes for both sides of the hate brigade

[@BelgarionScotland]

Beautiful song, sang it drunk at new year many a time

[@theoddbin8441]

The best x

[@lindyloo5590]

what can anyone say? - god bless all involved - such a sad day.

[@TheGrowler55]

The Greatest City in the World, and the best people to.

[@dannym2005]

Ever been to Liverpool?

[@TheGrowler55]

Yes; I love the People but wasn't keen on the City.

[@dannym2005]

TheGrowler55 ok then, thanks.

[@beardedscot]

+TheGrowler55 Yeah mate best religious discrimination in the world too

[@TheGrowler55]

+beardedscot I=Only if you think that way.

[@minethegap]

225k of these views have been me. Best song

[@bengray3245]

I only watched because a KZbin User liked this video last week.

[@MalkyMcMillan]

More pertinent than ever before after the Clutha tragedy. There are many sides to this wonderful city, but its compassion and lust for life are two of its best sides!

[@ashleydocherty6934]

Is its sectarianism, extraordinarily high rates of drug and alcohol abuse, and reputation for violence part of its charm too?

[@Argyll1000]

Ashley Docherty All cities have their problems. Having lived many years in London & Newcastle I'd say Glasgow's problems are no better or worse than theirs. Which city do you hail from?

[@Peddlo]

Top band.

[@bobbobson6616]

Does anyone know from where this was filmed? I just can't place the buildings. Thanks

[@williamxish]

Idiot to call Glasgow a dump.Wonderful City Glasgow. I love it so much. Really earthy and friendly.If you dont get it,you are to be pitied.

The starlings have gone . Glasgow is filthy , a dump . Mismanaged by the city council and the snp govt but you’ll never beat the resilience and spirit of a weegie. As rab nesbett said “ we arra people !”

[@williamcochrane1789]

Born in Glasgow die in Glasgow. Love the city

[@imfraeglasgow]

Their mum was a midwife and she delivered me at my aunt and uncles house cause the ambulance drivers went on strike so she got sent up in a taxi.

[@patrickstocks3576]

In the 2nd city of the Empire Mother Glasgow watches all her weans Trying hard to feed her little starlings Unconsciously she clips their little wings Mother Glasgow’s succour is perpetual Nestling the Billy and the Tim I dreamt I took a dander with St. Mungo To try to catch a fish that couldnay swim Among the flightless birds and sightless starlings Father Glasgow knows his starlings well He won’t make his own way to to heaven By waltzing all his charges into hell Mother Glasgow’s succour is perpetual Nesting the Billy & the Tim I dreamt I took a dander with St Mungo To try to catch a fish that couldnay swim And the tree And the fish And the bird And the bell… Let Glasgow Flourish!

[@heresjohnny999]

great song. this video doesn't help my vertigo though

[@gerbsvizsla]

Not quite piping in the haggis but still worthy

[@MissTeeFy]

The people calling Glasgow a dump must live in the land of milk and honey. You must live lives of blissful ignorance. Good luck to you all!

[@ScotticusErroticus]

Why do all songs about Scotland descend into arguments? Just be happy with whatever ethnicity/background/nationality you feel you belong to and let others do the same.
