The Great Finale - How to train your Dragon

[@DistortedClarityPsychoPanda]

2:21 HEAVEN!! well i just love the tunes and movies, being honest they made the movies less cheesy than id thought the would've been, it truly actually touched me and I'm 13! My dad died on June 1st last year, and he was a fully bred Scot :) IDK why i said that :) but im half Scottish, and the spitting image of my dad, in a great way :) Everytime someone mentions the moves, i see posters and merchandise etc, or even watch them or listen to soundtracks or something like that it reminds me of my dad , ive always found bagpipes strangely fascinating... :) great music overall :D Thanks :)

[@wolfsoldier78]

I cant agree more. it probably the best part

[@shrekfeetpics]

Hi *lad*

[@uwu-nm4fc]

The Royal Marines came to my school and played this. It was amazing

[@LibrarianFredericia]

The whole thing is a mix of melodies and repeated themes from the soundtrack to the movie "How to train your Dragon" by John Powell. What you're looking for is the first half of track 11, "Test Drive", but it's much more majestic in the Edinburgh version, than the album version.

[@Arrghigiveup]

No lie, I burst into tears the moment the bagpipes came out for Test Drive.

[@Kiritsun]

John Powell is a genius

[@awesomewinter3103]

yea, and he didnt get to do the soundtrack for HTTYD 2. -.-

[@Hollandrock99]

AwesomeWinter ??? Yes he did. 100% he did.

[@awesomewinter3103]

Hollandrock99 If there is no dragon flying featured music by J.Powell then he didn't do it. End.Of.Discussion.

[@Hollandrock99]

Flying with mother, battle of the bewilderbeast, together we map the world, dragon racing.. Those are my four favourites tracks from HTTYD 2. No-one else could have got those tracks across with such style.

[@hihoshortstack]

AwesomeWinter John Powell did do the soundtrack for HTTYD 2. Look at the end credits lol it says in black and white "Music by John Powell" as well as the physical copy of the soundtrack. Also if you have the blu-ray and watch the making of HTTYD 2 you actually get to see him work on tracks such as For The Dancing and The Dreaming. He also worked with Jonsi as shown in the documentary.

[@marrow2261]

I love how they interpreted the soundtrack their own way instead of just playing This is Berk, Romantic Flight, See You Tomorrow and Test Drive like almost all the others.

[@beatstochillandstudyto9522]

Holy shit after 6 years I’m still coming back to this

[@HUYhouston]

Saw the tattoo about 20years ago when i was a kid, blew my mind back then. This would blow my mind today.

[@donovanjsnider]

Hahahahahahahahhahaha! As a young musician who regards that soundtrack as one of the best in current existence I loved it! Thank you for putting it up!!

[@Wendygram]

Id beg to differ, as I adore Test Drive. I love playing it near full volume in my car while driving, it is my favourite music ever. But then, its played on bagpipes here and being half a Scot, I love bagpipes too :P

[@Magnar-7]

My middle school band played this it was hard but we did it and I loved it more than anything

[@LibrarianFredericia]

@MissyTheRedAlchemist Thanks! I'm glad that you liked it. I was like... "Hang on, I know this tune"... Great piece of melody from a nice movie.

[@plol]

Still so amazing as the first time i watched all those years ago

[@bmused55]

Hairs stood up on the back of my neck at the bagpipes started up! Magnificent!

[@PhilipJMusic]

WHOLLY GEEEZE! that's one heck of a finale!!!!!

[@BachsEnkel]

Pipes and Brass playing "Test Drive" ... awesome ... what an idea!

[@bsizeindian3966]

I heard all the possible videos of this track on KZbin. No idea how I missed this gem. Can't believe that it is there for more than 10 years. 🤐🤐😯😯😯☹️

[@fulcafcoffee]

Same here! I think it beats almost all movie soundtracks. The movie itself should be breaking records for how amazing of an animation it was. Most of dreamworks now a days seems to be based off that one movie. Or surrounding its major plot. Ya know?

[@shaunyap9229]

I love this. Its so calming. Thank you for uploading this!

[@LibrarianFredericia]

You are welcome!

[@Kaichiiro]

ive been to edingurgh loads of times :) but mostly for the dungeons :D but i live in dundee so its not too far on the train...sorta...

[@MrHeroOfRuneScape]

2:20 is when it kicks it up, you just don't see them coming. amazing video 10/10

[@LibrarianFredericia]

Yeah, it's pretty spectacular! The number of pipers alone is amazing.

[@Arrghigiveup]

Yep, it's my absolute favourite track. Seriously beyond epic.

[@tabby_cat]

I was there... loved it! Been looking for this for a while.

[@LibrarianFredericia]

Glad you found it, then! It was pretty special!

[@ThePattersonrr]

That was amazing!

[@Acedott_b]

esta genial!! hermoso, gracias por compartirlo

[@MonkeyBidness359]

@2.22 Gives me goose bumps!

[@MunChrysant]

Awesome soundtrack, awesome performance!

[@LibrarianFredericia]

It really is!

[@Sakuems]

gives me chills even if it's only a video, i think i will die if i hear this in real life

[@12345kps]

Im am full Scandinavian and they matched our history so well

[@CowPat101]

Man I remember being there it was great!

[@pen12345]

Truly stunning

[@Eoin15Connolly]

@williamkendrick It may interest you to know that the bandsmen performing here are all currently serving in the british armed forces, some are infantrymen or marines, others are trained to work in NBC decontamination stations in event of a nuclear accident or attack. Show them some respect, even if you don't like this performance. by the way. the percussionists are playing what is known an off beat or syncopated rhythm - intentionally playing in the gap between the beats of the bar.

[@LibrarianFredericia]

@Bamelin01 Then it wouldn't be the Edinburgh Tattoo anymore, but I totally get it. Edinburgh is worth a visit, though. It really is!

[@JenAndShellsRAWESOME]

So lucky to go there!!!!

[@anaco654]

come to san diego ; n ;

[@mattecorna98]

Nice video :)

[@fulcafcoffee]

Ikr? I think that its the most powerful score in the movie because it goes with such a powerful scene, it literally just is too much to handle. Lol

[@Algie95]

It's great, I love all

[@BorderlineCool22]

Wow, they really need some strings, which is especially evident around 3:30.

[@Underappreciatedclassics]

The national anthem of Berk

[@inexile90]

2.20 Hardcore chills down my spine!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@bruitsenboucle3952]

I was there and was awesomee

[@fulcafcoffee]

I am near tears

[@serpentzone.]

Jesus Christ it’s beautiful

[@Cyrilcynder1]

[@MondayKat]

Most military bands I've ever heard of only have brass, woodwind and percussion.

[@blackhawk35i]

[@danielmcgechie7578]

blackhawk35i The music will not move
