Songs played at football matches

[DJsmallpaul]

What piece's of music or which songs get played before or after the match at your club ?


From 1992 till 2002 we always used to play the "tom Hark" tune when we scored, You know the one..every club in the land seems to use it now when they score & that's why we no longer do ;)

So now we play "500 Miles" by "The Proclaimers" sounds a bit shite i know but can be quite effective in enhancing the atmosphere when everybodys giving it the "nah na na nah na nah na na nah" :lol:

Also we seem to have a new song to play at the final whisle when we win as i discovered in last night fa cup match againsed Liverpool. Apparantly it's by a geezer called "Tony Christie" & is called "Amarillo"

Sounded quite good when i was dancing around in the stand celebrating our famous giant killing act :lol: although i've no idea what relation it has to football or winning

Here's the lyrics (it's been buzzing round my head all day)


Sha la la lala lalala
Sha la la lala lalala
Sha la la lala lalala

When the day is dawningon a Texas Sunday morning
how I long to be there
with Marie who's waiting for me there
every lonely city where I hang my hat
ain't as half as pretty as where my baby's at

Is this the way to Amarillo
every night I've been hugging my pillow
dreaming dreams of Amarilloand sweet Marie who waits for me
show me the way to Amarillo
I've been weeping like a willow
crying over Amarillo
and sweet Marie who waits for me

Sha la la lala lalala Sha la la lala lalala
Sha la la lala lalala and Marie who waits for me

There's a church bell ringing
hear the song of joy that it's singing
for the sweet Mariaand the guy who's coming to see her
just beyong the highway, there's an open plain
and it keeps me going through the wind and rain

Is this the way to Amarillo
every night I've been hugging my pillow
dreaming dreams of Amarilloand sweet Marie who waits for me
show me the way to Amarillo
I've been weeping like a willow
crying over Amarillo
and sweet Marie who waits for me

Sha la la lala lalala Sha la la lala lalala
Sha la la lala lalala and Marie who waits for me

the one i hate is the no surrender to the ira tune, if they ever met a man in the ra they would shit themselves, wankers.

"show me the way to amarillo"

hahaha max and paddy.


Obviously at boro they play Pigbag but when we score it used to be song2-blur now its that one of killbill 2 its wank,i wish they didnt play any music after we score,its always more fun E-I-O ing

[DJsmallpaul]

Agreed with no music when you score, i mean why ? the whole point of celebrating a goal as a fan is to shout and throw your arms about punching the air etc.

At the Turf everybody does this silly dance :dontevengothere: i'd rather just go mental :lol:


Also i didn't think anybody would have got the max & paddy, Amarillo connection ;) Peter Kay is huge round here cause we are really like max & paddy i'm afraid :lol:

It's dark in here so excuse me whilst i go put the big light on.

Playing music after scoring is for fat burger eating hot dog loving americans. Its got no place in footy imo.

Mike Oldfield "Portsmouth" zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

still better than feckin' Tina Turner "Simply the Best" which Jim Smith used to have played.
Most embarrassing was "Also Sprach Zarathustra" by Richard Strauss, more commonly known as the theme from 2001 A Space Odyssey

[DJsmallpaul]

When Chris "penalty miss" waddle was our manager we used to come out to Van Halen's Jump
