What a Wonderful group, Living in America and thx to RU-vid I came across this great band, sort of by accident searching rod stewart lyrics only to find out Runrig is the creator of those beautiful lyrics. Now "running to the light" is a Masterpiece and my current favorite tune. Thank You for your great work. Many Thx and much Love from Arizona, USA.
This performance is just fantastic! The way each band member really gets into the feel of the combined music is inspirational. It is easily one of my favourite, all-time Runrig up-beat performances...among the many others, of course! :-)
Hier zit een goed verhaal achter dit is muziek van deze tijd.Geweldig. Een lust om naar te kijken en te luisteren. Peter Hoks Badhoevedorp/Amsterdam Nederland 4-2-2014
Thank you for sharing :) beautiful song and amazing group:) i love listening to Runrig i listen to them everyday since i came across there music recently :)...Thank you again ..
Fabulous performance from all!!!! (Incidentally, I read recently that this song was the favourite of one of the female astronauts killed in the shuttle disaster. She played it all the time when in space). Please forgive me if I have this wrong. Wonderful song and thank you for uploading. Kind regards.
You are correct. You'll find more about it elsewhere, but Laurel Clarke's CD fell to earth after the shuttle broke up and her husband and son flew to Scotland and presented it to the band.
I was there too... brilliant day! (Y) Had to revisit this song, having just listened to "Somewhere" from the new album. Looking forward to seeing the band again in a few days! :)
@roundhay46 - If you're still out there, 4 years ago when I commented here on Duncan Chisholm's fiddle-playing, you recommended that I listen to David Lindley on Jackson Browne's Before the Deluge. I've been listening to that almost ever since - like a thirst I can never quench. Thank you SO much.
I used to live in Strathpeffer in the North Highlands, which was literally 5 minutes away from Contin where Calum MacDonald (percussion) lived. Great band, been into them for years!
Back to Constitution1, I did the same thing, found Rod Stewart and by way of "Rhythm of my Heart," found Runrig. Same sentiments, you said it best, Oregon, USA
mar sin leat - I think that means goodbye, never had or learnt the gaelic tongue - but will always love and respect everything you have done and will do. Tapadh leat. soraidh slàn le mo charaid, you have decided to move on, I will love your music now and always
I was told by a Runrig fan (hes since got me into their music!) that this song was being played on the space shuttle that blew up just after it took off. I vaguley remember it being on the news, think it was a group of teachers and think it happened in the early 90's but could be wrong, very sad.
If I'm about to die from a heart attack, I *will* listening to this song: When I have to leave this world behind I insist on bringing at least one good memory with me...
El próximo día 9 viajare a Escocia concretamente a las Hihglands (Isla de Skye) Inverness Fort William, Invergarry. Visitare también Stirling y Glasgow, ya se que el tiempo no acompaña pero prometo volver el mejor estación. OS lo digo desde Alicante donde hoy tenemos 24 grados. !Hasta pronto ALBA
I was recently planning to play this song during the late 25th anniversary turibute performance for the crew members of the space shuttle Columbia disaster next to my dna related younger brother’s possible 4th grade teacher in Massachusetts. I will invite the 25 year olds that learned about Ilan Ramon at the sleep away camp that I have been working at since I was 19 years old to the performance in honor of laurel Clark. It might have to be though istagram. The performance will be in early June 2028 in my DNA related younger brother’s possible 4th grade classroom the for the following school year.
@Roundhay46 thank you! i love Jackson Browne & will look for that video. My other fav fiddlers: Scarlet Rivera (w/ Bob Dylan), Milla Crann (w/ The Silencers), and Ashley MacIsaac.
@RisingOfTheMoon If you like great fiddle players check out (if you have'nt already) David Lindley on Jackson Browne's old video Before The Deluge. Both of these guys are a bit special !!
bin ich der einzige, der bei dem intro und dem rest des liedes irgendwie an einen film über kampfjets wie "top gun" denken muss? am i the only one who is thinking of a jet fighter movie like "top gun" when the musik begins?
