"Both sides the Tweed" is a song made famous by the Scottish group Capercaillie in their album Sidewaulk. It speaks of the corruption involved in the negotiations leading up to the Act of Union of 1707 which linked Scotland and England on terms which did much damage to Scottish culture. But its tone is conciliatory and may be read as a reaction against the Anti-Englishness of some Scottish nationalistic songs. The title refers to the River Tweed which marks the border between Scotland and England. The song is one of those which has been mentioned in recent discussions on a Scottish national anthem.
