Good songs to make into football chants?

[OOTer]

I love it. How about the ' aw a oh' bit = coo-teen-iho

That Titanium tune would suit the Coo-teeeee-niho bit.

 

Something like...

 

 

Hes from Brazil...

 

He has it all...

 

He is Coo-teee-niho...

 

Few more lines needed but with a bit of thought it could be quality, or not.

A Dire straits Money for nothing chant would be awesome.

Perfect for Joe 'window licker' Cole

How old is Dooooooooooodek?

 

I reckon he's an owl arse of the Dire Straits generation, but he's trying to hide it with his Titanium suggestion.

Thread resurrect alert!!

 

Here some songs which have sprung to mind lately that I think would sound tops sung at Anfield.

 

Woody Guthrie - This Land Is Your Land

Are there any current songs to go to this tune?

 

Simon & Garfunkel - The Boxer

Think the chorus could be epic... lu lu lu, lu lu lu lu lu lu lu, luis suarez (or similar?)

 

Billy Joel - We didn't start the fire

Think we could do a great run down of our history using this song.

I'm working on one for each of the years we won the Euro cup.

"Kevin Keegan, Cilla Black, Red Leader, Terry Mac,.... etc...." (1977)

Not easy though.... help anyone?

 

And lastly this should defo be sung... even as is. Part of our history even without alteration, so maybe we can just sing as it?

 

Chris Rea - I don't know what it is but I love it

 

Anyone like the idea of any of those?

The first two have got really strong hooks, which should be useful.

 

The Billy Joel idea could only catch on among a handful of people who can remember the words - although the hook of that song could be used in a simpler way, if anyone's name fits.

 

The Chris Rea idea is an absolute must. We should be getting into the habit of singing it now, so we're belting it out next year (when the 30th anniversary comes round). Get your pre-match requests in to George now!

How about the Horst Wessel song?

[OOTer]

^^ dont know that. Will check it out.

 

Will have to listen to Dire Straits again and imagine it sung by The Kop

What's titanium too?

 

Ive semi (couldnt think of an end to the 2nd last line) done one for Coutinho to 'This Land...'

 

Original lyrics then mine:

This land is your land, this land is my land

From California to the New York Island,

From the Redwood Forest, to the Gulf stream waters,

[This land was made for you and me.]

 

Philippe Coutinho, he came from Rio

From De Janeiro to the famous Anfield

From his back-heel passes, (to his great new song),

[This lad was made for LFC]

 

Also. Dunno if Henderson has a song yet. But how about the old Pet Shop Boys 'Go West'. Just repeat over and over 'jordan, jordan hen-der-son' ad infinitum. Solid repetitive, kinda like his general play? (which i love).

[OOTer]

That 1st 'from' in the second line is pretty silent btw.

 

Also. Yes x100 for getting Chris Rea sung. Think it would sound epic. I love unchanged songs, its got meaning to our club and the original lyrics arent that far removed from a football theme (or am i imagining that?). And you're, right 30th aniversary too. Its not that complicated a song either and if not everyone wants to learn the verse then it would even sound good even if most people just joined in for the chorus. Has potential to be a proper feel good song i think.

Danny you're the one

You still turn me on

You can score a goal again

 

Wooooah

 

Looking back on when we first met

I cannot escape and I cannot forget

Danny you're the one

you still turn me on

You can score a goal again
