always thought one of the bluemoon lyricist's could do something with 'mr blue sky' by ELO.
Missed a trick when Sun Jihai left. We need a song for Jesus. Last two times he scored we sang KDB song. I know he made but still, he'll have a complex.
Not sure about that. When we closed the Kippax in 1994, the match programme had all the terrace favourites listed in a pull out. Hey Jude was in there as a song we sang in the 60s. Maybe the Baby Boomer Generation can back that up? I've got the programme somewhere in the loft wrapped up in one of the flags they were dishing out that day and can't be arsed rummaging around to find it.I hate the hey Jude. It's a Scouse song for God's sake. Should be one of our own.

Thought "Seven Nation Army" with the pre recorded KDB lyrics prior to the Chinps League Boo-fest last night was awful.
We'll sing what we like, not what the club deems appropriate.

its a good song to sing/chant. but for me it doesnt work well as a walking on the pitch song. it should be the boys in blue or something else. i dont want a scouse song as our walk on music, boys in blue or blue moon represent us much more

It's a City chant and always has been.
Like walk on was once........
Remember singing it in the 70sNot sure about that. When we closed the Kippax in 1994, the match programme had all the terrace favourites listed in a pull out.

Post match after that derby win was immense
Also, that was huge pay back for when they kept us behind after they beat us in the league cup semi final the previous year. Kept us back and played united songs down the tannoy. That was a club decision, small

As buzzer said.... we’ll come back here and hammer them

because when i think of hey jude i think of the beatles/ liverpool. i dont really think of city. id much prefer a song more associated with the club/manchester as a walk out song. the boys in blue for example represents us better imo. as a chant or at the end of the game hey jude is great, just not for a walk out song.
loads of clubs sing hey jude as well so you equally say its not just a city chant.

It worked at that particular time. Saying that, we’d have chanted along to any old shite we were that excited and happy that night though. Like when we won the league a few weeks later, the club blasted “Sweet Caroline” our and fans were singing along to that too and that has nowt to do with our club.
I’d bet the atmosphere would have been very special had the club not made us sing along to Hey Jude that night n’all. Possibly better, who knows?
But, for me, pre-game fake atmosphere football karaoke is shit and simply not needed at all.
Just play The Boys In Blue when we come out and play it again at the final whistle and don’t do anything else. Leave out this Disney sing-a-long-esque rubbish and leave the fans to create or react to their own excitement.
