Time for a new tune?

[Deleted member 77198]

Blue Moon is quite a dreary football song. And despite being one of the most covered songs of all-time, it’s not a good song full stop. Out of the dozens of covers of the song, there are maybe three that are listenable. Of all the songs in the world we adopted to be our main song, it’s not exactly a great choice.

But it has its place and we’re known for it now so it won’t go anywhere. We just need to fuck it off before the game over the tannoy because there’s nowt worse than pre-match five-to-three karaoke. Proper cheese on toast!

But we are in serious need of some new City songs (don’t have to replace Blue Moon, just added to the list). Not players or manager songs, or songs about United and Liverpool, we’ve got loads of those; songs just about City - we’ve hardly got any and we’ve not had a new one for decades.

We’ve hardly got any songs that we sing when it’s 0-0 or especially when we’re losing, to get the team going. We rely on Blue Moon too much for that (the only other one we have is Come On City).

How can you not like ‘Bluemoon‘ it is iconic (not a bit like the national anthem) Ric won’t change the name of the forum will he because some of you don’t like it, beside we didn’t pinch it off anyone

Crewe sang it before us.

Eric Clapton's always been open about stealing most of his best licks in the sixties from Howlin' Wolf and suchlike. I've got no problem with that.
Everyone steals from everyone, in life and in art. And we are art.

How about YNWA

Everyone used to sing it in the seventies. I cringe when I hear it now.

How very dare you, not a good song.
