This is Your Fight Song (Rachel Platten Scottish Cover)
The first time people heard Rachel Platten's "Fight Song", its message resonated with many. In a world where we often emphasize our differences, there is one common thread that unites us all - struggle. Everyone desires a fair shot at life and strives to make the most of their existence. However, the journey to achieve this is challenging and calls for a fight. It's not a fight against one another, but against the hurdles that stand resolutely in our way to achieving our objectives.
Many perceive struggle as a negative aspect, yet it bears immense significance. It is during intense struggles, where we decide whether to surrender or continue fighting, that often shape our lives. This was the experience of John Newton, the writer of "Amazing Grace". He underwent a profound transformation after surviving a brutal storm on a slave trading ship, when he pleaded for grace and discovered his life's purpose. His journey is encapsulated in the phrase, "I once was lost but now am found; was blind, but now I see."
The Scottish Cover for Rachel Platten's "Fight Song" video and tune embody the contrast between grace and hardship. Scottish culture is employed to illustrate this, blending robustness and fragility - warriors in kilts marching to the harmonious tones of bagpipes. The majestic Eilean Donan Castle in Dornie, Scotland, provided the ideal setting to mirror this idea.
This song and video evoke the message that perseverance and tenacity are pathways to grace. It serves as a beacon of hope for anyone who has ever encountered a hurdle, regardless of its perceived enormity.
If we opt to fight, Grace is within our grasp.
