We need an anthem

[Friendly_Fox]

New here so hello all.

Just my thoughts on the lack of an atmosphere at the KP. I think we are missing an easy to learn anthem. Even just a wall of sound like that at Anfield or Molineux. 

What do you think? 

[jonthefox]

We have’ when you’re smiling’. It is a song the pissed/ brain dead struggle with though.

[Finnegan]

In before someone immediately says we've got one regardless of the fact WYS is not an anthem. 

 

Edit:  too slow

Shouldn’t we have had one already by now?

[AKCJ]

How come they stopped doing Hey Jude before kick off?

I always thought Climb every Mountain would be good, yeah I know Julie Andrews, Sound of Music, Rogers and Hammerstein, blah, blah.

 

But then You'll Never Walk Alone was not Marsden's song – it started life as a show tune from the 1945 Rodgers and Hammerstein musical Carousel.

 

So certainly on a par with that

 

Climb Every Mountain
Guy Sebastian
Climb every mountain
Search high and low
Follow every highway
Every path you know
Ooh, yeah

 

Climb every mountain
Ford every stream
Follow every rainbow
'Till you find your dream
A dream that will need
All the love you can give
Every day of your life
For as long as you live

 

Climb every mountain
Ford every stream
Follow every rainbow
'Till you find your place
Climb every mountain
Ford every stream
Follow every mountain (every mountain)
Don't you ever give up, no ohh

 

Climb every mountain (every mountain)
There's a brighter day on the other side
Follow every rainbow
'Till you find your dream

 

 

Tell me when it's safe to come out of hiding.

Nothing wrong with stating your opinion Davie.

Every song gets ruined by said pissed/brain dead people for being sung at 1000 miles per hour with the wrong syllables anyway.

Because its crap.

[dayday]

Forest have got Mull of Kintyre, still don’t get the connection 

[Stuntman_Mike]

The thing is you can't just force or create an 'anthem' they have to happen naturally or spontaneously. 

WYS has potential but most of our fans struggle to sing it at the right pace and the Jersey Budd version isn't enough of a 'chant' version.

Get this playing before every game 

 

Love the lines about Frank Sinclair and DJ Campbell

It's a crime we don't hear any of his work at the KP.

Why doesnt he just sing without sounding embarrased?

[Heskey2011]

Impossible to actually get people to remember the lyrics, we need a song book.

The most boring dreary sound ever. The times the UFS tried to get it going where embarrassing. No to any kasabian song being sung.

theyd have sung anything in a title winning season

[Jobyfox]

Ooohhh, this one has potential:

 

“When you're smilin', when you're smilin'
The whole world smiles with you
When you're laughin', when you're laughin'

The sun comes shinin' through

But when you're cryin', you bring on the rain
So stop your sighin', be happy again
Keep on smilin', 'cause when you're smilin'
The whole world smiles with you”

 

It seemed to work reasonably well in Pen 3 - even with associated hand gestures
