In July 2022, Megan and I took the trip of a lifetime to Scotland with our friends in the Celtic-American band Father, Son & Friends. During our stop in Oban, Megan recorded this video of me singing Dougie MacLean's immortal song, "Caledonia." This is one of my all favorite songs, but getting the chance to sing it in Scotland itself was an absolutely amazing experience. I hope you enjoy the video as much as I do.

𝓒𝓪𝓵𝓮𝓭𝓸𝓷𝓲𝓪 (Dougie MacLean)
I don't know if you can see,
The changes that have come over me.
In these last few days I've been afraid that I might drift away.
So I've been telling old stories, singing songs,
That make me think about where I came from.
That's the reason why I seem so far away today.
Let me tell you that I love you and I think about you all the time.
Caledonia you're calling me and now I'm going home.
If I should become a stranger, you know that it would make me more than sad.
Caledonia's been everything I've ever had.
I have moved and I've kept on moving,
Proved the points that I needed proving.
Lost the friends that I needed losing, found others on the way.
I have tried and I've kept on trying.
Stolen dreams, yes there's no denying,
I have traveled hard sometimes with conscience flying somewhere in the wind.
Let me tell you that I love you...
Now I'm sitting here before the fire,
The empty room, the forest choir.
The flames that couldn't get any higher, well they've withered now they've gone.
But I'm steady thinking, my way is clear,
And I know what I will do tomorrow.
When the hands have shaken and the kisses flow then I will disappear.
Let me tell you that I love you...
