Known throughout the Shetlands as well as Scotland both as the Highland Fling/Schottische "Orange and Blue" and "Brochan Lom," the latter also as puirt a beul (mouth music). Researcher Conor Ward finds the melody in common time in Alexander's Fifty New Scotch and Irish Reels and Hornpipes (London, c. 1826, No. 31, p. 15) under the title "Blue Ribon [sic] (The)." Ward also finds variants of the tune with the Alexander title in several 19th century Irish musicians' manuscript collections, including those of Francis Reynolds (Gaigue, Ballinamuck, Co.

The Scottish country dance Orange and Blue, of East Lothian, was one of the relatively few either wholly or in part in strathspey tempo (Flett & Flett, 1964). See also the Welsh variant "Allt-y-Caethiwed."
It has been suggested that the title refers to the traditional colors of the Ulster Protestants (Orangemen) and Scotsmen (Blue), the traditional color of the Liberal Party (orange) and Conservatives (blue), or the Orange and True Blue Masonic Lodge. See also the 6/8 time setting of the melody printed by Gow and in Kerr's Merry Melodies vol. 2 ("Orange and Blue (2)").
