City songs that make no sense

[thegoatsthegoat]

It’s all the iconography around it that I hate.

The song Blue Moon has nothing to do with the Moon or the colour blue. In astronomy, a Blue Moon also has nowt to do with the colour blue.

The song Blue Moon is about being lonely and then finding love. An astronomical Blue Moon is when you get a second full Moon in a calendar month.

Yet City push a blue Moon as a gimmick for the club. It’s on banners on the pitch, it’s on the big screens, it’s on merchandise, there’s even been Moon print on two of our kits, we’ve got aliens as mascots (what the fuck have aliens got to do with City or Manchester?).

I don’t like it me, the Moon has got fuck all to do with Manchester City Football Club. We are from Manchester on the island of Great Britain on planet Earth.

Fuck the Moon shit off, it annoys me greatly!

And, even though I don’t mind the song, it’s still good to sing when we’re winning late in games; it was Crewe Alexandra’s before we sang it.

You are thinking about it a bit too much mate

Even if we're playing down at Maine Road or if we play a milion miles away.
We would need to be playing the moon !

"The boys in Blue never give in."
Seemed like we have a few times this years!
Also, "in blue" is selective.

"We'll always have our loyal fans behind us..." See thread: leaving early.

Love that classic song.

Was he Scottish?

I sang Cockneys (wasn't paying attention) and I'm Scottish but I don't stand behind anyone

 

[HorlocksWalk]

To be honest I was never in the Kippax Pyscho Mafia

 

[Abattoir Blue]

Controversial, fuck Bluemoon off, it’s dull and past its sell by date.

*not this wonderful site.

Jeeez, we sing few enough stadium wide songs as it is! All we'll be left with if you have your way is 'Come on City...'!
