heroes (scotland must be free again) is not a political song,
i would call it a historical song, or even an anthem.
Once on a trip through scotland, i went along the way of " Bonnie prince Charly"
the last King of scotland, who came from france, gathered his clans
to regain scotlands freedom from the english.
they were beaten and prince charly fled over the isle of Skye back to france
on a ship called "Fortuna", and with the help of " true scottish girl" Flora McDonald.
When i came back, i wrote this song with my brother.
The bagpipes you hear are played by a friend, also the tin-whistles.
and all the other parts are played so called "unplugged"
