Bagpipe Mania Monday

Today I had to get up and go to the DMV. Woe! But I just thought of music that featured bagpipes and that cheered me right up.

AC/DC - It's a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock 'n' Roll)


Bad Haggis - Cinderella Man (performing at Disneyland)


Schelmish - Aequinoctium


Forest For The Trees - Dream


Dance Dance Revolution Expert - Bag (follow the arrows with your feet)

  1. What about "Big Country?" They had their one hit, which I believe was entitled, Big Country with the huge, flourishing bagpipes in it.

  2. Good call! Except "Big Country" was actually two guitars, played through effects to sound like bagpipes. Video here:

    R.I.P. Big Country founder & singer, Stuart Adamson.

    Apparently Slade made a similar racket in the bridge of "Run Runaway":

    But it sounds more guitar-y to me.
