Ellafella Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 Can’t believe the South Stand haven’t made this our new anthem yet! Original lyrics: Isn't it rich? Are we a pair? Me here at last on the ground, You in mid-air, Where are the clowns? Send in the Clowes… Amended to: Isn't he rich? Are we a pair? Me here at last on the ground* You in mid-air,** Where are the Clowes, Send in the Clowes…. * ie Pride Park ** He’s a pilot The tune: see YouTube link. Come on South Stand. Bellow it out ?

Totally with you mate but the tessitura is very tricky. Spans more than an octave. Judy Dench ended up speaking it. Are you sure the South Stand are up to it ?

Rev Posted August 11, 2022 Share Posted August 11, 2022 13 minutes ago, Ellafella said: It’ll take off this week… We don't sing original songs. We just adapt whatever Manure/England/Liverpool are singing at the time. Hence we sing, or have in the recent past, about a teenage defender having a massive appendage, going on the piss with the straight laced Philip Cocu, and an Allez song that just fades away on the last line because no one's quite nailed the last line in our new circumstances. Keep trying, for sure, but don't expect a song from the Brian Clough favourites compilation to make the cut.

Boycie Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Maybe we could get the west stand to do a rendition of the first line of Born Free, followed by a massive raspberry? Ellafella 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least that would be funny. The tune of send in the clowns is so downbeat - perhaps we could just adapt the Living Years and be done with it Mucker1884 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PistoldPete Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 I did suggest this a couple of weeks ago. But strangely the idea didn't catch on.. all I heard at the Oxford game was David Clowes is Ram he hates Forest.. to the tune of London Bridge is falling down.

NC--RAM Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 How about this little dittie, set to a popular tune we all know. Oh David Clowes is magic He wears a magic hat He had a word with Morris And said duck off you t*** With club and ground together The future will be bright And when we get promoted We'll sing this song all night.

Simple & straightforward and a familiar tune so wait and see if it’s got legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
