Empty seats song?

[BlueMoonRisin’]

The Vincent Kompany song was sang by City fans in 1979 when we signed Michael Robinson from Preston
You can also include the Yaya / Kolo song which took off all over the place even no football games!

I vaguely remember that now you mention it.

City ‘til I die was definitely late 90s as we were sliding down the divisions.

It caught on at other clubs and Sunderland’s documentary on Netflix is called Sunderland ‘til I Die.

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

I went to most aways back then and the first time I remember CTID being belted out was away at Bradford, I think during frank Clark’s spell. 97ish. It may of course have been sung before then but in my memory that’s the time it took off.

I remember the first time it really took off that I heard it was Huddersfield away in 97 under Frank Clark, Tommy Wright's debut I think

We can afford steak but we’d rather have pork
You wouldn’t see the rags
take 250,000 to York

Don’t know why I made that up just bored

What tune are we singing this to Inda?

The Scousers didn’t start singing to the Edin Szeko song. It’s been around for decades as “The scousers sing, I don’t know why, coz after the match, they’re gonna die”.

City have had some original ones recently which have caught on round the country. Here’s to you Vincent Kompany, The Zabaleta Song, Istanbul we are coming and of course City Til I die.

Sorry, i got Dzeko song confused with our adaption of Allez song. Dzeko tune is to the chorus of Tom Hark/Piranhas I think ?it is. I thought it was.

Yes we did, in the late 90s. It died a death because people started clapping and speeding it up.

I suppose that isn’t recently, really, is it? ;-)

i thought it died a death when gary cook mentioned that he didnt like it. we sung it under sven from what i remember

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: )

Good song but the tune is nicked (West Brom started it) just like 99% of new songs these days so no different to most you're mentioning really.

To yellow submarine.
We can afford to have steak
But we’d rather have pork
We don’t give a fuck
about empty seats
We took 250.000 to York

We took 250,000 to York
250.000 to York
250.000 to York :)

Used to love the pre-feed the goat song, it was so shit it was brilliant

Here we go here we go here go go
Shaun Goater is the best we all know
He pops up just like toast from a toaster
Number 10, Shaun Goater.
