I miss the choir-style, orchestral entrance music we had a couple of years ago.  Sends shivers down your spine, especially in an evening game.

Someone on here knows what it's called but I can't remember.

Craig Armstrong: Escape. Still my message alert tone (when my mobile decides to work).

That's the one.  It really does make you think something epic is about to happen, even if it almost certainly won't!!

And as for a Johnny Cash song, what could be better and more appropriate than 'Hurt'?
"Cry Cry Cry"?

"What Do I Care?"

I suppose as long as it's not "Home Of the Blues". That probably wouldn't appropriate for Villa to run out to.

I'm surprised they didn't play last night another Craig Armstrong tune, 'Let's go out tonight'.

Back in the Big Ron days and in the big game night games it was "we will rock you" don't know if that is suitable now, maybe we will "shock" you!

the bells are stupid,Its embarrasing in my opinion. We need an upbeat song that gets the ground rocking before the game!

Which is why I suggested on page 1 that we should have 'Ghost Riders In The Sky' by Ramrods. Turn the volume up and give it a listen. If those opening bass lines at full blast don't get people on their feet I don't know what will. Add to that It's an instrumental version, it gives 30 - 40,000 people the chance to sing the 'proper' words.

There's one thing for sure dave clark five, we won't be hearing the song from 1964 made famous by your namesake.........Glad All Over.
And the Ricoh it can stay there thank you very much.

It's still trotted out at Palace after they score, but I get your meaning.

That song is brilliant at getting the crowd going at Palace
