Time for a new tune?

Nothing wrong with 'Blue Moon'

The problem is that sped up nonsense version the club use before matches. Keep it slow, let everyone join in, create an atmosphere beforehand.

Don't speed it up and lose 99% of the crowd's voice as they lose pace and patience with joining in to a version that can't be sung along to.
There's a great, slow, langorous sensual version of Blue Moon sung by a woman, which is the exact opposite of the version on benzedrine that you hate so much. I haven't been able to track it down. If anybody can identify it for me I'd be much obliged. It was on Youtube for a while as the accompanying soundtrack to the pitch invasion in 2012, all filmed in slow motion. That elderly guy who was in the lower tier of the CB stand, the one who decided to go for a wander to the centre circle, features prominently in it. Regrettably, that was taken off Youtube and I didn't note down the singer.
Edit: sorry, as you were, it's back on Youtube. Just watched that again, if that's filmed on a mobile (which presumably it is) it's astonishingly good quality.

The Cowboy Junkies?
 
That's it. She's mightily easy on the eye, too.
Actually, it's them, but it's not quite this version of it. I prefer the version that goes with the elderly geezer (who is someone called Mishka Henner's dad, I see — no disrespect, I'm sort of getting up there myself…they were in the Fans section of the 93:20 documentary)

How can you not like ‘Bluemoon‘ it is iconic (not a bit like the national anthem) Ric won’t change the name of the forum will he because some of you don’t like it, beside we didn’t pinch it off anyone
We pinched it off Crewe Alexandra who first started singing 'Crewe moon' in early 60s.
