Club anthem?
« on: February 28, 2024, 07:10:19 PM »
Hypothetical obviously.

There was a discussion on Twitter regarding a club song before the game.

I know we have Crazy Train but it doesn't really get belted out.

Arsenal have recently introduced their North London Forever song. Some guy originally made it and the club adopted it and they play it before every home game. It does seem to get the crowd pumped up.

So what would you go for for us?

If we'd won the cup in 2015 I do think 'Aston Villa That's Who' could  well have caught on as it would have had a feel good factor with it.

I am not sure anything will ever stick though - we are a bit too cynical for that!

The hook was OK, the verses were a bit shit imo.

Good shout though.

Nah not for me.

Though if I had to choose
 Give a little bit by Supertramp.

It’s slow, you can clap along and the words aren’t too difficult which is often a problem for large swathes of our support.

I think this has been discussed before. Just make it 'Enter Sandman', like Virginia Tech have.

Looks great until they do the close ups and then it’s typical American half arsed celebration.

Holte Enders in the Sky could be it. Just need re-recording.

I'm an old fart but I'd have Theme from an Unmade Silent Movie, followed by a rousing chorus of The Bells are Ringing.

I know it'll never happen , but it would make me happy.

I'm not young either but that tune just reminds me of the early 80s at Villa Park, I find it so dull and uninspiring like the team for the majority of the that time. I can hear it now and I can remember the empty worn out stadium, the weekly hammerings and players like Dean Glover, Paul Kerr and David Norton  ::)

There are better Ozzy songs, Children Of The Grave by Sabbath would be much more intimidating for the opposition 🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼
