This song was written in a dungeon in Carlisle Castle in 1746 by a captured jacobite before many of them were hanged.

Great reaction, that was nice. At the change of tempo in the song they were singing our Scottish language the "Gaelic". You can sing along with the words as it not difficult. They are saying, Ho, ho mo leannan (Oh hello my lover) Ho mo leannan bhoidheach (Oh hello my beautiful lover).

I was at this concert, absolutely amazing gig. This LIVE version was released as a record and is played as the last song at 99% of weddings in Scotland

Donny Munro was a great singer but you need to listen to Runrigs later music with Bruce Guthro singing he was just amazing as a front man and what a voice he had.

This song is about the aftermath of the Battle of Culloden.The Battle of Culloden took place on 16 April 1746, near Inverness in the Scottish Highlands. A Jacobite army under Charles Edward Stuart was decisively defeated by a British government force commanded by the Duke of Cumberland, thereby ending the Jacobite rising . .

I was at this concert it was a brilliant day capercaillie were great and hothouse flowers had the place jumping before runrig went on stage ,and it was great to see one of my fave djs at that time tom ferrie introduce runrig as he had been trying to get their music to a wider audience,rurig were always superb but the atmosphere at glasgow barrowlands is hard to beat
