Whose here in 2024 listening to this fine tune?❤

I played this at my wife's funeral it was played on our first serious date, and it seemed right to play it and Lorena at her funeral. My God, how I miss her, today is the anniversary of that date.

Who’s here in 2021 listening to this beautiful song 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

I have been in tears since the first time I heard Corries' rendition in 2009. By the by, I am from south India. Music knows no boundaries indeed.

My mum sang this this song to me my whole life. I’ll see her again and we’ll sing it together.

I have a dearly departed friend. Before she succumbed to cancer, while she was still vibrant at a camping event, I asked her for a song to learn on my cello, in her behalf. She told me to learn this song. Forever in my heart, this song is hers. and I can still recall her joyous exuberance as we hiked around the campground that night. I barely got to know her, but I miss her.

This song reminds me of great family gatherings at New Year in Glasgow. All the elders are nearly all gone now. Great people, great times, greatly missed.

This is the song we chose to remember our granddaughter Sophie. She would have been four tomorrow. Instead she is forever 16 months, and my heart weeps every day. Her sister is 6, and listens to this often in remembrance.

You know, I often don't like to hear the audience participate in the singing. But I swear, they added a lot to this performance. The audience was spot on and sounded great. Almost like true back up singers. Very nice post. Thanks kindly.

This is my favorite song. I love this rendition. A lot of people are saying they associate this with goodbyes and the ending of a life, but this song saved mine. My condolences to all who are suffering and may you find peace in the melodies that heal you ❤

Who's all here in lockdown listening to this beautiful music to lift their spirits

this is my favorite version, crowd sounds angelic

I´m from Germany....and when i hear the corries i can hear, smell, see and taste scotland...to all scots - you can be proud....great music, great country, great whisky...best ever...

This never gets old! 50 years and still beings a tear to my eye! The Corries, never to be forgotten!

This tears me up man. Such purity, and when people Come together and sing. Holy smokes.

These are real musicians, best traditional music. ❤. This can be appreciated thru the ages.

My childhood, growing up in Scotland, the Corries are forever, 66 now in California but you know where my heart is. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

My mum has lay in a cemetery in Australia for 30 years... far from the heather of her homeland. My dad used to call her his Bonnie Lassie. LOVE this song always have. Reminds me of me mam.

I’m 14 and someone from my small primary school died and our whole year was basically a family because we have been together since kindergarten and when we had his memorial our whole class sung this song

There are some beautiful womens voices in that audience .

A powerful melody that manages to stir the pride of many with Irish & Scottish ancestry.

O the summer time has come And the trees are sweetly bloomin' And the wild mountain thyme Grows around the bloomin' heather Will ye go lassie go? Chorus: And we'll all go together To pull wild mountain thyme All around the bloomin' heather Will ye go lassie go? I will build my love a bower (summerhouse) By yon cool crystal fountain And round it I will pile All the wild flowers o' the mountain Will ye go lassie go? (chorus) I will range through the wilds And the deep glen sae dreary And return wi' their spoils Tae the bower o' my dearie Will ye go lassie go? (chorus) If my true love she'll not come Then I'll surely find another To pull wild mountain thyme All around the bloomin' heather Will ye go lassie go? (chorus)

I hope we never lose this stirrings of our ancestral soul. The Celtic is ours to cherish.♡♤

This was my husbands favourite song played this at his funeral, Bobby always sang along to this song wish he was still here to sing it, miss him so very much.

This is magic!! the audience sound like some heavenly choir. the corries sum up what scottish music was all about. goin around playin town halls all round the country, uncomplicated and simple. everything was about community back then, help thy neighbour. wish we could get that back. oan the corries!!

If there's a heaven, this is what it sounds like.

I m from India but staying in Glasgow for 4 years. Love this song.. love u all Scottish people you are amazing community on the planet 👍🏻

I'm here from the Jacob Collier Song Accoiaction. Great Song!!

Anyone else cry like a baby hearing this?

I'm crying at this. My school sang this when I was leaving for high school. It makes me proud to be Scottish.

We lived in Glasgow, Scotland for 2 years between 1975-1977 and my eldest son was born in Southern General. I fell in love Scottish folk music and especially the Corries and have many records of them but this song is still my favourite. The Corries will always be probably my favourite folk group.

I’m an American, and I love this beautiful song. I first heard it in Scotland and knew it as Will Ye Go Lassie. When my father passed away, I asked my classical guitarist son to choose a song to play at the funeral. He asked me to check out an instrumental called Wild Mountain Thyme. I recognized it immediately and was very touched to hear my son play this at my father’s Mass.

I'm not Scottish at all but every single one of this duo's songs fills me with peaceful joy. Truly beautiful music, I've never heard their equals.

I'm going through a rough patch in life right now, but I swear this song always manages to calm me down and let me get my emotions out, fucking beautiful rendition

my mum died yesterday, we used to sing this in the car all time driving through the glens, too heart broken to play it at her funeral. so chose her next favourite, Jock of Hazeldine.

Even though i am from Greece this song gives me the chills, what an amazing and beautiful place Scotland is, somehow i have always felt a deep love and drawn for that place and i honestly hope i can visit one day. Cheers to every Scottish man or woman reading this

This is the best version of this song. The backing vocals make it so great.

I remember hearing this as a child. My parents would have gatherings of about 25 people and a big fire and they would all sing this song, and I remember it was the most beautiful thing I'd heard in my life. I couldn't find the song anywhere until I found this, and it reminded me of the times of all the beautiful people singing their hearts out around the fire. It brought tears to my eyes.

This is my all-time favorite song. And none can sing it better than the Corries.

I work at a residential care home and would sing this to the service users. Music is such a powerful thing. Someone with a dementia diagnosis suddenly remembers the words and harmonies. Just incredible!. This is however the best rendition of this song I have ever heard. A masterpiece. ENJOY.

I heard this song for the first time today on WFMT classical music station in Chicago, sung by a choir from Trinity College , Dublin . Listened to this , and it’s fantastic, am crying like a baby . My true love went to The Wild Mountain Thyme 2 weeks ago . I can never find another . She waits amongst the blooming heather . We will go and see you Lassie , we will go when Jesus calls us home . We miss and love you so .

Even I am in Chile I love this group, they are fantastic. I always hear their songs.

I love the accompaniment from the women in the audience. Very sweet and gentle.

Our family sang this at our Mums funeral service, all children their partners and grandchildren, was lovely to hear this in New Zealand

My grandmother sang this song to me while she rocked me as a young child.... I did not remember the song until I heard it again almost 35 years later when performed in a Halifax restaurant. It brought me right back on her lap as a young child in the rocking chair, hearing her sing it to me. I hope it resonates ith my grandchildren as much.

I love the warm intimate feel of this recording. The audience knows every word of this song and they are enjoying every moment of this performance--they are part of it.

This song evokes so many emotions. I feel so much joy and I just start crying. It is so beautiful and makes me proud of my Scottish heritage.

I comment on this every time I'm drunk and missing home. Even though I'm half English and Scots. It's on another level. Peace and love, folks.

Somehow I'm from the other side of the world and still this moves my heart to tears. The heavenly promise to meet again with your loved ones in the other side. That lovely hope in every culture share

It doesn't get better than this. I can't stop singing this, and my heart yearns for it's Home isles...

that contrast of voices, rough and smooth, those simple but elegant rhymes, vivid words, over a simple plucked guitar, then the chorus of singers behind it, the gentle footstep sound, the vocal harmonies blossoming and strengthening, it's almost unbearable how beautiful it is

Hands down best ever version of this beautiful song. Roy's quiet "Goodnight" at the end always gets me.

I have loved the Corrie's since my twenties. Still love them. Beautiful men - beautiful voices. Gentle & kind. God rest them both. I miss them xxxx

My favorite Scottish song of all. I am English but absolutely love this.

Went to all their concerts in Edinburgh when I was younger, and they were always packed out. Loved the way they could get the audiences to sing along with them. Roy Williamson had the most amazing musical talent and his premature death was a tragedy.

Roy Williamson......unbelievable voice and talent. Supported and assisted by the great Ronnie Brown

Apparently, the old church hymns were a reflection of the rich culture of the colonialists expressed to their maker. I'm listening to this from Ottawa in Spring 2023 and it reminds me of the old spiritual songs I used to hear from my late friend Joseph Dada Adegoke. He was raised in an orphanage in Mopa, Kogi State Nigeria. I can't describe the feelings this tune evokes. Thanks to the person who wrote the lyrics so I can follow the tune. Sounds like something JD would have enjoyed. And Graeme Barnantyne too. Thanks for sharing this collection, they are awesome.❤❤❤

why must i always cry,when i hear this?

We use to sing this at our folk club in Cardiff during the sixties - it use to be our anthem. A Scotish song that so epitomizes the Welsh Vallies and a time of dreams,wild heather and peace.

The greatest song ever written and sung. Scotland, my country!

It's just great and touching as the audience joins in on the chorus. No debate needed. Just music.

Absolutely beautiful thank-you from Australia ❤

What it would have been like to sit in a pub and have the Corries there singing, with a dog at the hearth and a bitter in hand! Ah, the beautiful moments of life! Thanks be to God.

The definitive version of this wonderful song X

That "Wiiiild Mooountain Thyyyme" between 3:50 - 3:55 gets me every time

Still here in 2024. Never tire of this lovely song. I am doing ok David. Hope all is well with you.

I have come from China and now living in Canada. I love Scottish music very much!

If you're looking for it, this version can be found on the album "The Corries - In Concert". One of my favourite albums. It's a live album, has the audience singing along. They even get the audience to harmonise on one song.

sometimes listening to this kind of song remains me of the feeling of home even though I am an Asian islander. It feels homely.

This song always made my mother sing and cry as she remembered her father. Still makes me sing and cry.

Memories of my youth in Edinburgh. Been away from Scotland now for 41 years.

My dad used to sing this to me when I was a wee girl and then we used to sing it together ❤ we played this and Caledonia at his funeral. Saor Alba

This song stirs the soul. So moving. It upsets me every time I hear it.

Celebrating Burns night in Adelaide South Australia to Scots folk all over the world there's no many like us and we are awe daft 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿👍🍻

My grandfather loved the Corries. He sadly passed away om Christmas Eve of 2017 and i miss him more than i ever thought i would. We played this song at his funeral. RIP my amazing grandad. We love you and miss you ❤

So deeply moved by this song, first heard it done recently by James Taylor and loved it, then searching for it on KZfaq this week I came upon the Corries version and ( forgive me James) I was even more blown away.

The applause says it all!! Beautiful rendition!!

I grew up on this song 🎵my granny and gradad played the corries all the time its just beautiful..

I saw the Corries a few times in Glasgow in the 70's. My first concerts. Wonderful xxx

played this at my mums funeral god bless maw

Almost perfect rendition.. The Corries are the highest standard of live performers I’ve ever heard

A fitting song for the travails of 2021, simply beautiful.

2023 my mum is ailing this helps

I have never seen them play live but this is a fantastic song.

I am! Listening to songs that remind me of my late parents. This is one of the songs my dad used to sing .... he was a great singer x

It’s crazy a Irish-German American loves Scottish music so much! God bless y’all !

Ok My first time hearing this I'm from Argentina And... Now I think I'll never stop hearing this song AMAZING

Roy and his talent are still missed....

I'm so proud to be singing this in choir. It's such a beautiful song to sing and to relax to

What a great, if not the greatest rendition of Wild Mountain Thyme. You can almost smell the Highland air as you listen

the Corries were magnificent a duo for many years they entertained worth listening to years later

Still beautiful song in the mess of 2021...

MAKES ME REALLY MISS SCOTLAND

Just bacame a fan of this about a year ago now a fav..love the Corries

The Corries were so great! One thing about this video the vocals from audience were awesome as well!! (

You go away. You hear this song. You will always come home. saor alba [>

i love to Corries so much... I wish I had been alive when they were performing... and i wish I could go back to Scotland and live there forever...

I LOVE the Corries. I wish I had seen them live back when Roy and Ronnie were at their peak before Roy's sad demise. What a special pair!

Cried - truly angelic.
