Jools have you actually given the song a few listens and 'listened' to the lyrics ? This is the song we're talking about not the Ska one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRDUdGu8sz4 which I'm a bit more indifferent to.

I guess its personal taste but listening to the lyrics it just sums up everything about being a blue - even takes us back to 99 with Dickov. Very very clever how the lyrics tied it all together, and I love the melody too.

This song deserves some recognition, I've downloaded it and made a donation to the charity, with the thousands of blues out there he should have raised far more than the £250 odd quid he's raised currently.

couldn't agree more, we need to get the club involved, in order to play this at matchday before kick off

Yes I have 'listened' to the lyrics and I still think it's shit. As a poster mentioned earlier football related songs are notorously difficult to get right and even the holy grail of football songs, World In Motion, edges towards being cringeworthy when John Barnes opens his mouth. I am a huge fan of early 10cc but the lyrical and musical genius of Godley & Creme sadly evaded them when they wrote and recorded The Boys In Blue, a dreadful song.

As for the charity, that's a completely different matter and a very worthwhile cause but it doesn't save the song from being shit.
 
@jools I don't see what it is you actually don't like about the song. But not everybody liked the same things, I can only assume your brain is wired differently from ours

You think its sh*t I happen to think its sh*t hot !

You certainly can't state your opinion as fact. (at least that's teh way you've come across) I happen to think most R&B is sh*t but I know there are millions of people who love it worldwide and its arguably one of the most popular musical genres.

That said, irrespective of your subjective view of the song, I find it hard to fathom how you can be so disparaging of a song that lyrically is exceptional. (imo of course) and captures the essence of the thoughts and feelings of many City fans about the recent Wembley finals so well.

It certainly made the hairs on my neck stand up and brought back all the wonderful memories of the day.

From my perspective I fail to understand how it didn't stir any emotions inside you except - Its sh*t - glad you're not my boss if that's the only feedback you can give.
 
i think its shit too,lets face it,the song is about City so that automatically makes it 'great' to some people
