Songs & Chants

[tragic]

When we think of a chant we are thinking of something that will be permanent
and will be around forever.
Having chants with names in like Sharpie will therefore not work, cause you'll
have to change the song everytime that player retire/leave.

Names are very easily substituted.

Plus, if singing about a member of the opposition, getting personal is always fun.

Have you seen my laptop, dear Quadey, dear Quadey?
Have you seen my laptop, it seems to have gone.

A quick compilation of the more popular ones I think.

[palitu]

The _____ are drowing in the sea of blue
Sea of blue
Sea of blue

so (trying to indicate timing):

the sshhoorrkkss are drownin' in the sea-of-blue
sea.. of.. blue..
sea.. of.. blue..

so more of a chant, less musical as drunk rugger fans can't sing...

[palitu]

or perhaps the 'sea of blue' can be quick.

[hertryk]

We need the person at the ground with the microphone to lead us in...Thart would work...

[LuvUnleashed]

Thats MOORDITJ!

[Hansie]

Im my humble opinion we need 3 different types of noise.

1. An instrument - either a trumpet - like the French, vuvuzela, triangle, whistle whatever

2. A Chant, short and sharp - like Allez les Bleu - or BLUE AND BLACKKK, BLUE AND BLACKKK

3. a few verses - like bread of heaven - wales, Swing low. Frankly a tune like "working class man" - everybody in Oz knows it with words to suit the Western Force.

Printed it off..will print a few off and hand them out to the "Blue Crew"....

[tdevil]

2. A Chant, short and sharp - like Allez les Bleu - or BLUE AND BLACKKK, BLUE AND BLACKKK

Here's a couple of short & sharp ones.

1.
The best attack
is Blue and Black
If you think that's immense
You havn't seen our team's defence

or my personal favourite
2.
No retreat, No remorse
We support the Western Force

This is good - for some reason I have Alexei Sayle going through my head :\

'Allo quade, got a new laptop? (repeat ad infinitum) [Hello John Got a new Motor?]

Alexei has been doing my head in - one of those songs you can't get rid of -= hopefully I have now passed it on...

[Darren]

Or there is this one

[Burgs]

Gonna be a Force day.
Gonna be a real Force day.

[andrewM]

yeah..thanks Coach..actually you may be on to something there..lets go through the lyrics

We're no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I
A full commitment's what I'm thinking of
You wouldn't get this from any other guy

I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling
Gotta make you understand

Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

We've known each other for so long
Your heart's been aching but you're too shy to say it
Inside we both know what's been going on
We know the game and we're gonna play it

And if you ask me how I'm feeling
Don't tell me you're too blind to see

Never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry, never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

(Ooh give you up)
(Ooh give you up)
(Ooh) never gonna give, never gonna give (give you up)
(Ooh) never gonna give, never gonna give (give you up)


hmm..a few of those verses could be ripped and re worded..some references to committment, playing the game, even a good ref reference with 'blind'..

EDIT : actually didn't mind Rick Astley when I was young..if only because it made the girlies do naughty things with my willy
