The Skye Boat Song" is a late 19th-century Scottish song adaptation of a Gaelic song composed c.1782 by William Ross, entitled Cuachag nan Craobh ("Cuckoo of the Tree"). In the original song, the composer laments to a cuckoo that his unrequited love, Lady Marion Ross, is rejecting him. The 19th century English lyrics instead evoked the journey of Prince Charles Edward Stuart ("Bonnie Prince Charlie") from Benbecula to the Isle of Skye as he evaded capture by government soldiers after his defeat at the Battle of Culloden in 1746.

I've no idea about the show either. I just know the song. It was a hit here in the UK back in 1986. That was done by Roger Whittaker & Des O'Connor. Des sang it and Roger did the whistling parts. And the lyrics are different to what i remember.

Tommy did it again. He is doing a tribute, no an fantastic update to a song that 90% never expected. I love Tommy for such nice surprises. Tommy's version touches my heart sooo deep after a very hard day for me because I was on my brother's-in-law funeral.

@@user-ud8cm1fr6l started to, but couldn't continue. Series is great, acting and locations are great. I'm one of those people who can't handle that filming a beloved book they rewrite the story somewhat. Everytime they deviate, I'm disgusted. Happens all the time, ad in the Tolkien films too. Not knocking down the series, as such they are well done. Me personally I can't handle the changes. Love my books too much.

There is one version of the theme song for each season. The newest season has Sinead O'Connor singing it. But the first season's version is amazing! Listen to it!

I found it difficult to remember the English lyrics after listening to this, but I think it begins: Sail, bonny boat, Like a bird on the wing Over the sea To Skye Carry the boy Who was born to be King Over the sea To Skye This is such a powerful version! 👍❤️

This is a very old and famous song in Scotland and England too. The Isle of Skye is beautiful. It was sheer genius choosing it for Outlander as it brings so much emotion.
