I've just found where someone posted the lyrics (further down in the comments of this video), was reading them out loud to myself by myself in the middle of the night, came to "But Scotland has her borders still" and finally *literally* felt a shiver down the side of my back. Just thought I'd let you know. This song feels like time travel. I suppose all the very best songs about historical events probably do. 💙❤💜 "Red caps were mixed with bonnie blue" I thought they were. Sounds like what I thought I heard. Wow. Shivers. ^___^

The Corries --- The Bonnie Blue Lyrics: The blairin’ trumpet sounded far, Horsemen rode, weel graith’d for war, The English came up frae Dunbar, Upon a misty morning. Prince Charlie, wi’ the Highland host, Lay westward on the Lothian coast, Johnny bragg’d, wi’ manys a boast He’d roust them ere neist morning. CHORUS: Run, run ye ganglin' crew This morning's work ye lang will rue The bonnie blue bonnets are after you Tae wish ye's aa' guid mornin... Lang ere the cock proclaim’d it day, The Prince’s men stood in array; Though impatient for the fray, Bent low the knee that morning. When row-dow-dow roll’d the English drum, The Highland bagpipe gi’ed a bum, And told the mountain Clans had come, Grim death and danger scorning. CHORUS ... Ilk hand was firm, ilk heart was true; A shot! And down their guns they threw; Forth their dreaded claymores drew, Upon that fearfu’ morning. The English raised a loud huzza, But durnae bide the brunt ava; They waver’d - turn’d -syne ran awa’, Like sheep at shepherd’s warning. CHORUS ... What sad mishaps that few befell! When faint had grown the battle’s yell. Still Gardiner fought - and fighting fell, Upon that fatal morning! Nae braggart - but a soldier he, Wha scorn’d wi’ coward loons to flee; An' fell aneath the auld thorn tree, Upon that fearsom morning! CHORUS ... Fast, fast, their foot and horsemen flew; Caps were mix’d wi’ bonnie blue. Dirks were wet, but no wi’ dew, Upon that fatal morning. Few stay’d - save ae devoted band - To bide the brunt o Highland brand, That swept around -lopped head in hand Upon that fatal morning. CHORUS ... To boast of deeds becomes us ill, Yet Scotland has her border still, Be there some who'd have their will, For want of thought or learnin'. The Roman Legions tried in vain, The Saxon, Dane an' Norseman came, Nane o' them could us contain, So heed this gentle warnin'. Run, run ye ganglin' crew This morning's work ye lang shall rue The bonnie blue bonnets are after you Tae wish ye's a' guid mornin... Run, run ye ganglin' crew The bonnie blue bonnets are after you But all we really want to do Is wish ye's aa' good mornin'

Very tribal, you can feel it in your blood. Music which have a deep drum pace like this was probably one of the oldest form of music we had, which definitely predates our own species of human. When hunting large megafauna it is hypothised deep beats and a shared chorus between individuals lead by a lead voice were used, lessening fear and increasing a primal instinct.

Battle of Prestonpans. Early morning attack. If the Jacobites could have agreed earlier before setting out on the night before Colluden. Marching all night before the battle. Realising they weren't going to make an early dawn attack to the east of culloden. And about turn and get back to (or near) Inverness to protect the last port under Jacobite hands in Scotland to keep it open to possible French support and supplies it may have been so very different. If you have marched all night and your main attack is to run, drop, fire and run through the smoke towards the enemy then you are going to be shall I say knackered. So the final battle was inevitable. The only battle that Charlie didn't win. But unlike Prestonpans the Jacobites didn't rout the British Government Forces unlike the terror unleashed in the aftermath of Colluden.

The battle at Prestonpans was between Catholic forces of a French-born prince and the Protestant government forces. The border had literally nothing to do with this conflict as neither side was fighting for independence for Scotland.

Blaring trumpets sounded far Horseman wore their gear for war English came up tae Dunbar Upon the misty morning, Prince Charlie wi' his Hieland host Lay westward on the Lothian coast. Mony's the taunt our Johnny did boast Whit he'd dae that mornin'. Run, run ye ganglin' crew This morning's work ye lang shall rue For the bonnie blue bonnets are after you Tae wish ye's a' guid mornin... Lang ere the cock proclaimed the day The Prince's men stood in array. Proud, impatient for the fray, That fell on them that morning. "Row dow dow" said the English drum, The Hieland bagpipes made their hum Call all the mountain clans to come Death and danger's callin'. Ilk hand was firm, ilk heart was true, A shot and doon their guns they threw, Forth the dreaded claymores drew Upon that fearful morning. The English raised a loud Huzzah! But nane daur bide the brunt of a'. Wavered, turned, then rin awa' Like sheep at shepherds' horning. Whit sad mishap that few befell Wha' feinted, groaned the battle yell Still Gardiner fought and fighting fell Upon that fatal morning. Nae braggart but a soldier, he Wad scorn wi' coward loons tae flee And fell beneath the auld thorn tree, Upon that fearsome mornin'. Fast, fast, the foot and horsemen flew Red caps were mixed wi' bonnie blue Dirks were wet, but no wi' dew, Upon that fatal morning. Nane stayed save ane devoted band Tae bide the brunt of Hieland man Ran awa' wi heid in haund Upon that dreadful mornin'. To boast our deeds becomes us ill, Scotland has her border still, Though some remain who long to kill, The land of thought and learnin'. The Roman Legions tried in vain, The Saxon, aye, and Viking came, Nane o' them could us contain, Heed this gentle warnin'. Run, run ye ganglin' crew This morning's work ye lang shall rue For the bonnie blue bonnets are after you Tae wish ye's a' guid mornin...

Well, you see, first you fire your musket a time or two and then you just drop it down on the field because you don't want it any more, it already did its job and you're going to use your several *other* weapons to actually damage the enemy. Which probably explains the huge number of discarded muskets that were found on the field after the battle. No one wanted *those* pieces of junk.
