Talking about music

Anybody else hate the fact we play ‘hi ho’ on the final whistle of every game
I mean against Arsenal we didn’t need that shit music blasting out we just wanted to celebrate with players the atmosphere was already there it didn’t need to be contrived

I hate it before, during and after. It's clap along, singalong, fake atmosphere nonsense.

Even Jeff Beck hated it and he’s the one singing

I quite liked DLBIA as it was very much an organic fan thing. I also like the thought of sha fans leaving VP after a defeat and hearing it.

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.

Agree.

Theme From and Unknown Silent Movie, it is what I grew up with. Whilst we are at it bring back the floodlight pilons.

Anyone know where I can buy/download this track. Massive 70s memories hearing this on BRMB with Tony Butler, especially the League Cup replay v Everton.

Anyone know where can I buy this as an mp3?

Do you like Oasis though?

I can't stand them, so I was never going to like the song. I don't like how much people wank off the massively overrated Manchester music scene and especially this terrible band. So when I see our own club using one of their songs it doesn't feel right.

Football fans love Oasis and all that stuff. I don't get it tbh.

I don't mind a few of their songs but that's it.

I much prefer a song taking off organically through fans, in this case the ones at the Reading game, than when there was that manufactured attempt at TBAR back in the day.

That's fair. Just wish it was a decent song.

I was at Reading away.  And quite frankly the first rendition of DLBIA was brilliant.

to be meaninful it comes from the fans - like villa til I die when Grealish came back.

Hqving qn qthem - partially a made up one is like saying your favourite album is The Best of the Beatles

Agreed.

It came along organically, and it pissed off organically.

Works for me.
