Dit is een van de meest aangevraagde nummers bij Rapalje.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>Wij hebben bij dit lied al vele tranen van verdriet, ontroering en vreugde gezien. Het is vaker voorgekomen dat er een aanzoek wordt gedaan op het moment dat wij Caledonia gaan spelen. Ook bij uitvaarten wordt deze regelmatig ten gehore gebracht. Er zijn vele mensen in ons midden die een bijzondere gedachte hebben bij Caledonia en het blijft een bijzonder mooi lied.<\/div>\n<div>\n<h2>Achtergrond Informatie &#8220;Caledonia&#8221;<\/h2>\n<p>Caledoni\u00eb is de Latijnse naam die de Romeinen gaven aan het het hedendaagse Schotland. Nu wordt de naam voornamelijk gebruikt als een romantische of po\u00ebtische naam voor Schotland.<\/p>\n<p>Dougie MacLean&#8217;s liefdeslied voor zijn vaderland is een volkslied van Schotse trots geworden, maar het werd in slechts 10 minuten op een strand in Frankrijk geschreven toen hij begin twintig was. &#8220;Ik schreef het toen ik begin twintig was op een strand en maakte het daarna af in een jeugdherberg ergens in de buurt van Paimpol in Bretagne.&#8221; Ik had echt heimwee en het was maar een klein liedje dat ik schreef. &#8220;Dougie MacLean zegt dat hij op straat had gespeeld door heel Europa met drie Ierse jongens, maar de dag nadat hij het nummer had geschreven &#8211; met de tekst &#8220;Caledonia you calling me and now I&#8217;m going home&#8221; &#8211; vertrok hij terug naar Schotland.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<h2>Lyrics Caledonia<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ujudUb\">I don&#8217;t know if you can see<br \/>\nThe changes that have come over me<br \/>\nIn these last few days I&#8217;ve been afraid<br \/>\nThat I might drift away<br \/>\nI&#8217;ve been telling old stories, singing songs<br \/>\nThat make me think about where I came from<br \/>\nAnd that&#8217;s the reason why I seem<br \/>\nSo far away today<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"ujudUb\">Let me tell you that I love you and that I think about you all the time<br \/>\nCaledonia you&#8217;re calling me and now I&#8217;m going home<br \/>\nIf I should become a stranger you know that it would make me more than sad<br \/>\nCaledonia&#8217;s been everything I&#8217;ve ever had<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"ujudUb\">I have moved and I&#8217;ve kept on moving<br \/>\nProved the points that I needed proving<br \/>\nLost the friends that I needed losing<br \/>\nFound new ones on the way<br \/>\nI have kissed the ladies and left them crying<br \/>\nStolen dreams, yes there&#8217;s no denying<br \/>\nI have traveled hard with conscience flying<br \/>\nSomewhere with the wind<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"ujudUb\">Let me tell you that I love you and that I think about you all the time<br \/>\nCaledonia you&#8217;re calling me and now I&#8217;m going home<br \/>\nIf I should become a stranger you know that it would make me more than sad<br \/>\nCaledonia&#8217;s been everything I&#8217;ve ever had<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"ujudUb\">Now I&#8217;m sitting here before the fire<br \/>\nThe empty room the forest choir<br \/>\nThe flames that couldn&#8217;t get any higher<br \/>\nThey&#8217;ve withered now they&#8217;ve gone<br \/>\nBut I&#8217;m steady thinking my way is clear<br \/>\nAnd I know what I will do tomorrow<br \/>\nWhen the hands are shaken and the kisses flow<br \/>\nThen I will disappear<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div class=\"ujudUb WRZytc\">Let me tell you that I love you and that I think about you all the time<br \/>\nCaledonia you&#8217;re calling me and now I&#8217;m going home<br \/>\nIf I should become a stranger you know that it would make me more than sad<br \/>\nCaledonia&#8217;s been everything I&#8217;ve ever had<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/track\/7lOZkPULiPWVJmgMHLnFz8\" width=\"300\" height=\"380\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h1><a href=\"https:\/\/rapalje.com\/product-category\/music\/?add-to-cart=22930\">Koop dit album nu<\/a><\/h1>"},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>https:\/\/vimeo.com\/464699010 Caledonia Rapalje speelt Caledonia hier tussen de Hunebedden in Drenthe, met RTV Drenthe trokken ze er op uit om naar Hunebed het Loon (D15) te gaan om opnames te [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33,1481],"tags":[39,1551,206,1552,207,223,228,230,246,252,268,425,428,443,1436,620,633,731,1549,1550,923,1209,1213,1216],"class_list":["post-28123","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","category-tracks","tag-caledonia","tag-caledonia-live","tag-caledonia-rapalje","tag-caledonia-scotland","tag-caledonia-song","tag-celtic-fest","tag-celtic-folk","tag-celtic-folk-music","tag-celtic-music","tag-celtic-music-irish","tag-celtica","tag-folk","tag-folk-band","tag-folk-music","tag-folk-music-of-ireland-musical-genre","tag-irish-folk-music","tag-irish-music","tag-live-concert","tag-lyrics-caledonia","tag-lyrics-scottisch-songs","tag-rapalje","tag-traditional-folk-music","tag-traditional-irish-music","tag-traditional-music"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rapalje.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28123","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rapalje.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rapalje.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rapalje.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rapalje.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=28123"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/rapalje.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/28123\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rapalje.com\/nl\/wp-json\/?parent=28123"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rapalje.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=28123"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rapalje.com\/nl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=28123"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
