At the risk of incurring Percy's wrath, if they were to narrow it down to a song with Birmingham connections then you'd really be struggling.

Get out.

What’s most iconic villa song. I would say 7 times we’ve won the cup.  A total upbeat way to finish your afternoon/evening off at the villa

Totally agree mate, but we're both showing our age, happy days. Keep the faith, the good times will return and you never know we may get to eight in our life time !

What fans spoke? I don't remember being consulted.
The 10,000 or so who sang along with it.

Are you always consulted when new songs get momentum on the Holt?

No, why would I be? You're the one who suggested that the fans decided, noone has ever decided on any song which is played over the tannoy, to my knowledge.

I've no idea why someone has chosen to impose this one on everyone.

It's a Man City song, it's embarrassing. Manchester is our rival city. We could do without adding to their vastly-inflated cultural mythos.
I did enjoy the rendition at the end of the Small Heath game at Villa Park last season it even got a mention on German TV! But on the whole I agree with your take on it being a manc song from a manc band who are big man city supporters. The best I can come up with is, The day we caught the train by OCS. Brummie band with a big villa connection. Wouldn't mind hearing that blasting from the tannoy.

On second thoughts, stick with Oasis...
Why? It's a great tune.

The Twang - Either way .
Oh yeah. Great tune, villa connection in the band and the video partly filmed in Nechells. What's not to like?

Surprised they don't just play Hi Ho Aston Villa at the end as opposed to just before the teams come out.

I also think that would work. It ticks all the boxes.

Exactly. Surely a prerequisite of these things is that people actually know the song.

That Twang song would be perfect to play at the end of any Villa matches these days, instantly forgettable.
