This was so much fun! I'd be tickled pink by a Folk take on pretty much ANYTHING from Lilo and Stitch.

[@bball-laker4life639]

Since its Disney why not do I see the light from tangled or I got friends on the other side from the Princess and the frog

[@Prairiegirl1]

how about "how far I'll go" from Moana or any song from Tarzan and "the bells of notre dame" from the hunchback of notre dame cause you have a good singing range

[@mikehendon7327]

Not Disney, but Bruce Dickenson's "Re-Entry" begs for proper mandolins and such... Maybe "Go the Distance" from Hercules?

I don’t know how you managed to pull this song off in its original key, but you did. And, I’m impressed. Another great cover 👍

[@epauletshark3793]

The man's vocal range is matched only by his sweater collection.

[@helenaalexandra4197]

It was written for a Soprano II, so its in his (assumed) upper natural range. Its amazing listening to his cover!

[@stephensmith6156]

Exactly my thoughts

[@mikehendon7327]

I'm guessing helium? That, or a fusion dance with Stratovarius' lead vocalist

[@tynancravy5589]

Well he is almost certainly a baritone and this would definitely be within a solid baritone’s vocal range.

[@in_ravel]

His high pitch voice can DEFINITELY touch the sky, yeah And his low voice can dig to the earth's core

[@Abbygail363]

My thoughts are the same

[@samuelllakaj5439]

His low voice can touch the sky on the other side of the earth.

[@notalltheories]

So, will there be a Gaelic version too? Because that would be amazing!

[@MatchGirl]

I might just die of joy if that were to exist.

[@sunkenshipsanddreams8237]

@@MatchGirl I think that'd be everyone who speedclicks it

[@azraelsoulreaper1013]

[@deaganachomarunacathasaigh4344]

I doubt there'd be one in Gàihilg as Colms Irish and speaks Gaeilge, but hopefully he'll do a cover as Gaeilge

[@brothertaddeus]

That'd be great. Though I also wish Julie Fowlis (who sang the original) would do a Gàidhlig version.

[@agent_dex8996]

Brave is probably one of my favorite Disney animated movies. It has archery, red heads, awesome music, and speaks to my Scottish ancestry. So glad you decided to do a cover for it.

[@Kothlim]

Ahh yes. The red headed Scottish lass. Stuff of dreams.

[@Eleniel13]

I seriously think it's underrated.

[@aaronburdon221]

@@Eleniel13 It is in my humble opinion. It covers topics like loyalty and respect for family. That different people have Different aspirations. Humility (merida and her mother's feud).

[@steveunderwood9307]

Brave is a sadly underrated film

[@GamingwolfZJ]

The fact that I’ve seen it so many times to the point where I could probably quote the script word for word and still enjoy the movie every time I see it speaks volumes of how good it is

[@TheLorax-l5m]

When the cold wind is a-calling And the sky is clear and bright Misty mountains sing and beckon Lead me out into the light I will ride, I will fly Chase the wind and touch the sky I will fly Chase the wind and touch the sky Where dark woods hide secret And mountains are fierce and bold Deep waters hold reflections Of times lost long ago I will hear their every story Take hold of my own dream Be as strong as the seas are stormy And proud as an eagle's scream I will ride, I will fly Chase the wind and touch the sky I will fly Chase the wind and touch the sky And touch the sky Chase the wind Chase the wind Touch the sky

[@bingbong8761]

Thank you so much for the lyrics! I think there might be just 2 mistakes - I think the line is 'I will ride' rather than 'I will fly' (the line that's just those 3 words), and 'Deep waters hide reflections' rather than 'hold reflections'.

[@fantastic.fantasy]

@@bingbong8761 I will fly is correct. But with hide you are right 👍

Still hoping for a St Patrick's week version of Over the Hills and Far away ... in honor of the brave Irish Lads.. showed Napolean , What For! And the only role Sean Bean was alive in the last episode !

[@mikehendon7327]

Uhh...those were actual Scottish actors. The only one who wasn't using their natural accent was Eleanor

[@cameronthorne4338]

Sorry, at times they felt a bit forced😅

[@mikehendon7327]

@@cameronthorne4338 'salright. The thing of it is, Scottish accents are a spectrum. Some sound like Northern English (Yorkshire) accents. The more elevation you get, the more stereotypical the accent gets...and then you get to the OTHER half of the accent. The kid who spoke complete gibberish? That's an actual, living dialect of the highlands. There's some that are even LESS decipherable, and sound like Klingon...or someone gargling rocks.

[@jonathanmitchell4749]

You don't have to be Scottish to love Scotland. Or Ireland for that matter. Both countries stirs a deep emotion within me. I attribute it to the fact that I have Scottish ancestry from both my parents.

I attribute it to the fact that my ancestors sacked England, met the Scots, and said "The pillager in me recognizes the pillager in you. Namaste, ye salty bastards!"
