Empty seats song?

[northendenton]

If you have a problem with him don't stew on the fact, you two should meat up and sort it out.

Yea don't mince your words

 

[Mike N]

the 'blue' sounds like it doesn't fit. Don't think it's needed.

Some people are singing 'those' rather than 'blue' but it definitely wouldn't work without that syllable.

I like it Alex: )

Taking the piss out of ourselves came naturally in the past mate(if you're old enough to know). The banter sharp wit and camaraderie on the terraces, especially on the Kippax kept many going to games. The football was often a joke, was kind of surreal thinking back how bad we were on the pitch in the 80sand 90s, especially having to endure rags rubbing our blue noses futher into the dirt at every opportunity. I don't regret a thing really, it kind of makes sense now.

To Made of Stone/Stone Roses

Sometimes I fantasize
To hear rags cry

Won the cup n' league Mancini
And again with Pellegrini

Don't these times, hurt red eyes
Won the league with Guardiola
And their bragging rights are over

But nowadays they moan
empty seats at home
empty seats at home.

I wish we could actually get songs like this going for a sustained period of time instead of what the shit about Edin Dzeko

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

What about a 2nd verse to this classic chant.

So first verse of:

We’ve been to Rotterdam and Monaco,
Napoli and Rome,
But we’ve still got blue empty seats,
empty seats at hoooomeeeee
Empty seats at home

2nd verse of:

We've beaten United and Chelsea,
Liverpool and Spurs,
But we've still got blue empty seats,
empty seats at hoooomeeeee
Empty seats at home

Thoughts?

Chelsea doesn't fit, needs to be a name with 3 syllables - Everton, Huddersfield (lol),
Or you could shift them around and say
''we've beaten Tottenham and United
Chelsea, Liverpool'

Agree with the sentiment but united are going through their stone roses phase even to that song so no thanks. We’re all singing Edin Dzeko....

 

[newfaceinhell]

One of the Salford Blues is claiming it’s his song too. I wonder if this will end up on Judge Rinder!!

i think we all know what "ends up" on Judge Rinder.

 

[Blue Mist]

It’s a belter mate and I’m sure it’s your song. I was hoping to get it going at Huddersfield and again last night.

Actually I started it at York away.

I like the words to the Dzeko song. Not the song itself,(tune) who we nicked of the scousers, who they nicked off the European team that first thought of it.

Many songs are plagiarised with lyrics bastardised to suit. Most of those songs/chants bore me, especially the monotone chants with hardly any words. I like the unique quirky songs that we blues sing.

Oh Balotelli, Niall Quinn's disco pants, we are not really here, we never win at home etc etc. They are amongst our best IMO. Bluemoon was ok years ago, but now it seems dreary and dated. We nicked it off Crewe Alex though, for those who didn't know.

The Empty seats song to Beautiful South is top quality, quirky and unique: )

Actually, it was "Are you watching Macclesfield?".

I thought it was both of these songs actually but either way I have always appreciated our gallows humour. My favourite chant of recent years is our riposte to the Everton fans who sang: "You've got no history" and our reply was: "You've got no future." They have never sung it since.
