Scotland the Brave Bagpipes HD
"Scotland the Brave" (Scottish Gaelic: Alba an Aigh) is a Scottish patriotic song. It was one of several songs considered an unofficial national anthem of Scotland.
Scotland the Brave is also the authorised pipe band march of The British Columbia Dragoons of the Canadian Forces, and is played during the Pass in Review at Friday parades at The Citadel and Virginia Military Institute. In 2006, it was adopted as the regimental quick march of the Royal Regiment of Scotland. In the 1982, 1986, and in the 1990 FIFA World Cup, the Scottish national team used it as its anthem prior to using "Flower of Scotland".
Scotland the Brave is a popular song for pipe bands to play in American parades.
In June 2006, the song came in second in an online poll with more than 10,000 votes to determine the nation's favourite unofficial anthem, losing only to Flower of Scotland. The song was used to represent Scotland in the Commonwealth Games until it was replaced by Flower of Scotland from the 2010 games in Delhi onwards.
The Dropkick Murphys song "Cadence to Arms" off their debut album Do or Die is a reworking of Scotland the Brave's melody.
The song was among the entrance songs for professional wrestler Roddy Piper during his time in the WWF.
Dorothy the Dinosaur dances to this song in the Wiggles' 1997 videotape: "Wiggly, Wiggly Christmas".
A comic version by The Corries mixes humorous and topical lyrics.
