  • Harry Lauder (4 de agosto de 1870 – 26 de febrero de 1950)​ fue un cantante, humorista y artista de music hall y vodevil escocés. Fue quizás más conocido por ser intérprete del tema "I Love a Lassie" y por sus éxitos internacionales. Winston Churchill dijo de él que era "el mejor embajador de Escocia!"​​​ Se hizo una figura familiar gracias a la promoción, especialmente en los Estados Unidos, del kilt y del cromach. Otras de sus canciones más famosas fueron "Roamin' in the Gloamin", "A Wee Deoch-an-Doris", y "The End of the Road". En 1911, Lauder había llegado a ser el artista mejor remunerado del mundo, y el primer escocés en vender un millón de discos. Recaudó grandes cantidades de dinero para contribuir al esfuerzo bélico durante la Primera Guerra Mundial, motivo por el cual fue nombrado caballero en 1919. A mediados de los años 1930 inició una vida de semiretiro, aunque volvió a la escena de manera breve para entretener a las tropas durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. A partir de finales de la década de 1940 su salud empezó a resentirse, falleciendo en Escocia en 1950. (es)

Among his most popular songs were "Roamin' in the Gloamin", "A Wee Deoch-an-Doris", "The End of the Road" and, a particularly big hit for him, "I Love a Lassie". Lauder's understanding of life, its pathos and joys, earned him his popularity. Beniamino Gigli commended his singing voice and clarity. Lauder usually performed in full Highland regalia—kilt, sporran, tam o' shanter, and twisted walking stick, and sang Scottish-themed songs, including Roamin' in the Gloamin'. By 1911 Lauder had become the highest-paid performer in the world, and was the first British artist to sell a million records; by 1928 he had sold double that. He raised vast amounts of money for the war effort during the First World War, for which he was knighted in 1919. He went into semi-retirement in the mid-1930s, but briefly emerged to entertain troops in the Second World War. By the late 1940s he was suffering from long periods of ill-health. He died in Scotland in 1950. (en)
