"Scotland the Brave" | Scottish Patriotic Song

"Scotland the Brave" (Scottish Gaelic: Alba an Àigh) is a Scottish patriotic song. It is one of several songs often considered an unofficial Scottish national anthem (others being "Flower of Scotland" and "Scots Wha Hae").
The tune was first played probably in the late 19th century. The lyrics commonly used now were written about 1950 by the Scottish journalist Cliff Hanley for the singer Robert Wilson as part of an arrangement by Marion McClurg.

    It was a pipe tune long before anyone wrote lyrics to it, in the late 1950s. This was done for a TV variety show.

    its to dark the real shade is much lighter,and the reason the union jack's scottish bit is darker is because it lasted longer at sea etc the original was lighter but faded quicker,the st andrews cross which is the scottish flag is based on a cloud formation that was seen b4 a battle,so if u imagine a blue sky then that the blue u want
