Go West fits with so many things and it can be repeated over and over, Lloyd George knew my Father, que sera sera etc etc .. it’s those that get grounds really rocking because even the quiet ones can join in. … Sunderland had Day Dream Believer for a time .. with “Cheer up Peter Reid” Up Beat .. Beach Boys kind of optimism / good times vibe. .. Sounds old fashioned but the melodies are still here 50 years on for a reason Just not a massive fan of the Heartbeat song - too short for me. Agree with you on upbeat songs being good ones to go for though. Delilah, Day Dream Believer, dare I say it Marching On Together, they're all great terrace songs. But then I'd say the ones with a touch of emotion, like You'll Never Walk Alone (sorry @MuespachRam), are probably the best of the best.

Obviously at the time it was ‘stop crying frank lampard’, but it doesn’t have to be. We’re talking about a song here, not a chant. Too many people suggesting ways to reword a song. That’s a chant. Do Liverpool change the words of Alone, do west ham change the words of Bubbles, or Stoke change the words of Delilah? for a while there we were singing Crying Your Heart Out quite regularly, it’s obviously a song everyone can get behind and the majority know the words to. As you say, it’s got a slight melancholy to it, like you’ll never walk alone. It works when we’ve won and we sing it to the opposition, it works when we lose and we sing it to our players, and there’s that little bit of history, that little moment that made it popular that will eventually disappear into folk lore. love it. the fact that I love oasis doesn’t make me bias at all.

RadioactiveWaste Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 (edited) Or when the team needs to get into em or perhaps after another goalkeeping mistake Actually the stadium PA should just play the Album "Angle Dust" by faith no more from about an hour before kick off until about an hour after the game finishes. It's certainly be unique. I don't think any other club would have the nouse to make such a decision.

Very few suggestions meet that criteria. Only @sage really come close so far. My only question is how you convert But- ter- cup to Der-by- ? @DarkFruitsRam7 is the one you're suggesting the Lampard Leeds song? If so, I would be against for that reason. Need something timeless that is about us, not the opposition. Angie nails it here (must be well known) but I'm confused because @sageso obviously got the song and has been ignored. The Ramones "Baby I love you" easily changed to "Derby I love you". I presume just cycling the chorus with (CAPS for changed words): Derby, I love you, come on Derby Derby, I love you Derby I love, I love only you When you SCORE AND I just gotta SCORE AND I just gotta SCORE AND I just gotta say Derby, I love you, come on Derby Derby, I love you Derby I love, I love only you but if you want a longer song then from the top it would be: Have I ever told you How good it feels to hold you It isn't easy to explain And though I'm really tryin' I think I may start cryin' My heart can't wait another day When you SCORE AND I just gotta SCORE AND I just gotta SCORE AND I just gotta say Derby, I love you, come on Derby Derby, I love you Derby I love, I love only you I can't live without you I love everything about you I can't help it if I feel this way Oh I'm so glad I found you I want my arms OUT FOR you I love to hear US call YOUR name Oh tell me that you feel Tell me that you feel Tell me that you feel the same When you SCORE AND I just gotta SCORE AND I just gotta SCORE AND I just gotta say Derby, I love you, come on Derby Derby, I love you Derby I love, I love only you Buttercup is fine for an end of match song but not something you sing during the game But Derby I love you (Come on Derby) definitely is. angieram and Chester40 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No but Sage said you can convert Buttercup to Derby. I was just counting syllables and wondering how. Anyway, I have gone off that now as @Carl Sagan's Ramones song is perfect! We can do harmonies. ?

I think the purpose of this thread is to find a song we can sing before and after the match that will be instantly recognisable as our song. We’ve got loads of chants for during the game.

CBRammette Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 Like the earlier Abba suggestion but would prefer Mamma Mia but assume someone else already has it Derby County, here we go again Derby, how can I resist you? Derby County, yes we'll win again Derby, yes how much I've missed you Yes, We've been broken-hearted Rams since the day we started Derby, I could never let you go Derby, Derby Derby County. or whatever. But Derby County does slot in nicely for Mamma Mia MickD and angieram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
