Songs We’ve Plagiarised Into Chants

[Bluefen]

It wasn’t but I did an online version of the talk and recorded that. I didn’t use the original script as I’d lost it so it’s not quite the same, but I do use the original slides. You can watch it here:

Manchester City Chants

Chanting at football games is rarely documented correctly with many myths, rumours and stories developing over the years. This feature is designed to give a potted overview of the development of singing at City. I explained about some of the chants in this talk recently...

Awesome thanks @Gary James - I’ll look forward to that at the weekend

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

Lord of the Dance

Park Ji Sung song. Probably not very politically correct now !

 

[Bluefen]

Cheers pal. I didn't know that btw.

Neither did I - it’s so obvious when you hear the band version - I just see Police Academy or Stand by me

[yaba daba BLUUUUUE]

Best song of the season?

Our grass is to long, our grass is too long, We're Man City, our grass is too long.
We'll smoke what we like, we'll smoke what we like we are man city, we'll smoke what we like

no idea of the song

Sorry, it's like a hymn to me.
The ONLY name you can use here is KING COLIN.
Using another name is sacrilege.

 

[There is a Light]

Bit of an obvious one missed (I think)… Empty seats at home..

Coma
Coma
Coma man city

It’s 15 pages in and I can’t believe no one has posted this yet. For me, it’s still one of the best ever chants:)

As a tribute to Tina Turner who died today, we need to do a City version of Simply the Best.

A new F.A ruling has deemed any of our City songs with the word boy/boys in disrespectful to the new gender generation.
Wooooooah,we're the they in Blue,woooooahhh,coming after you.

 

[lazerblue]

if i had the wings of an angel
the dirty black arse of a crow
i'd fly over old trafford tomorrow

shit on, shit on,
i'd shit on the bastards below below
shit on, shit on, i'd shit on the bastards below
