"Maymorning" is a 1999 single released by Scottish celtic rock band Runrig, released as the second single from their tenth studio album In Search of Angels (1999). Its release was preceded by the single "The Message". Written by Rory MacDonald and Calum MacDonald, it was released via Ridge Records in the United Kingdom, and by Columbia Records across continental Europe. The release of the single marked one of the first releases of new lead singer for the band, Bruce Guthro, following the departure of original lead singer Donnie Munro.[1]
Commercially, "Maymorning" marked the last appearance of Runrig within the UK Top 100 Singles Charts for eight years, until the release of "Loch Lomond (Hampden Remix)" in 2007, which debuted at number one in their native Scotland, and number nine in the United Kingdom. "Maymorning" debuted at number ninety on the UK Singles Charts in May 1999, remaining on the charts in the United Kingdom for one week.[2] It fared better in their native Scotland, debuting at number forty-seven on the Scottish Singles Charts.[3]
