Runrig - Gamhna Gealla 1979
Runrig were a Scottish Celtic rockband formed on the Isle of Skye in 1973. The band released fourteen studio albums, with a number of their songs sung in Scottish Gaelic. "Gamhna Gealla" (White Stirks) was featured on their second album, The Highland Connection (1979). Runrig's music is often described as a blend of folk and rock music, with the band's lyrics often focusing upon locations, history, politics, and people that are unique to Scotland. Songs also make references to agriculture, land conservation and religion. In August 2018, Runrig performed the final shows of their farewell tour, entitled The Last Dance, in Stirling City Park beneath the castle ramparts. An estimated 52,000 fans attended The Last Dance.
"Gamhna Gealla" received a total of 79,1% yes votes!

Well if one goes on about willows and cricket, then one is also obligated to discuss ash trees and shinty. Is it ash dieback that's really the danger, or the pile of broken camans (shinty sticks) at the side of the pitch during the Camanachd Cup?

Now there's a faceless cross on a distant hill, a wasted voice, a silent scream. Where the lovers love and the dreamers dream, you stand and dream alone. You took your sacrifice to the gods of war, traded your children's lives for a mess of gold. And you beat your ploughshares into swords, breathing free.

hell my music playlist just wrecked me with Epic iii and then suddenly I hear the first few notes of An Toll Dubh.. shoutout to Runrig for making the most heart wrenching songs.
#I have no chance of ever fully learning the intrinsics of Gaelic but 2 of my dream uni courses are Celtic language focused#I’ll probably specialise in Welsh more but I hope that I do pick up enough proficiency in Gaeilge and Gaelic to read the Tuatha Dé Danann#and of course also understand some Runrig songs#Runrig#“It’s really important… that we keep singing… keep playing- keep performing the Gaelic songs”#o7
