Voll Blau Posted 17 September 2014 Share Posted 17 September 2014 The Merc really have gone overboard on this. Imagine if the MEN did a story on someone every time they came up with a new chant, it's all that would be in the paper. Bit weird. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan LCFC Posted 17 September 2014 Share Posted 17 September 2014 Don't see what's wrong with the second. The third I agree could be perceived to be a bit small-time but that's only by the pickiest. Can't say I agree with Finners here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAPA LAZAROU Posted 17 September 2014 Share Posted 17 September 2014 Jesus ****ing Christ. That's woeful. I wouldn't mind but the words are absolutely terrible, it's only carried by what's a very good melody and apparently that's borrowed from the Argies in the WC? It sounds good partly because you can't actually make out the words which is great because the second and third lines are diabolical. Come on the Finners write something better ?

Can't say I agree with Finners here. I must be classed as a picky one because I think the third line should be improved. Firstly because we sound like Burnley if we think £8m is a fûckng fortune. And because up to now he has proved to be bargain of the summer. But it is a good chant and i'm just being pedantic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScouseFox Posted 17 September 2014 Share Posted 17 September 2014 i always thought the "fúcking fortune" was a sarcastic jibe at the press/other fans who all laughed their arses off. but it's not a fortune to us because he scores goals so it's alright. no? maybe? who really cares?

Exactly what I thought as well, sort of self mocking that we still think 8million is a huge price for a player as we have been out of the top flight for so long. Love the song personally, better than most of the stuff we churn out, just a shame we couldn't sing it a bit slower but it's a real start. Not as good as the original... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjGi8Xqu7MA Really was tremendous this, completely took over Brazil for the whole summer. 'Maradona en mas grande que Pele' If you skip to 2.15 on that video as well you see the most blatently obvious public filming of two young birds I think I've ever seen by a couple of blokes, they don't take the cameras off them for ages as well.

leftsideoverhere Posted 17 September 2014 Share Posted 17 September 2014 The next video of us singing the Ulloa version needs to be a flashmob in the Fosse Park foodcourt though, if we're going to give those Argies a run for their money. Anyone come up with suitable words for the second bit, that goes "don't come out tonight, it's bound to take your life, there's a bad moon on the rise" in the original? I can't get much better than "we're the foxes on the rise" for the last line, but there must be something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AKCJ Posted 17 September 2014 Share Posted 17 September 2014 Still two major flaws with it. The shite clapping and half singing "so that's alright with me" and the other half singing "so that's alright for me". Could also do with a second paragraph. Basically it needs a lot of work doing to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically it needs a lot of work doing to it. Could do with slowing down a lot. I don't know why a majority of our fans seem to sing songs at a 100mph. Slow it down, sing the right words and we'll be able to sing it louder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ealingfox Posted 17 September 2014 Share Posted 17 September 2014 Equally I've never understood some people's fascination with singing songs as slowly as possible. Some of you are absolutely obsessed. Why? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarshallForEngland Posted 17 September 2014 Share Posted 17 September 2014 I am not massively keen on the last line, at least not when it is sung too quickly. "He scores goals" is a bit of a mouthful because the -s on the end of "scores" immediately followed by the hard -g in "goals" makes it sound like a repetition of the "sk" sound at the start of "scores". It just sounds and a bit clumsy and is audibly slurred when people are singing it. Happy to have a new chant though; wasn't convinced when I saw it written down but it does sound quite decent with lots of people joining in.

Itsthejoeker Posted 17 September 2014 Share Posted 17 September 2014 Equally I've never understood some people's fascination with singing songs as slowly as possible. Some of you are absolutely obsessed. Why? Because Cambiasso's "He's magic" chant bears absolutely no resemblance to the song it's based on because it's sang too fast.
