Songs 'N Chants

[dibo]

*hate* that song, and angry anderson can eat a bag of flaming dicks too, FWIW

 

[Wombat]

What about....


We are the Coast........Champions of Australia. Sung like the Leeds Waccoe song.

But get Peter and crew to sing and response to Rowdy and the older heads at back of bay 16

 

[EastCoast]

hi guys..

long time, first time.

Im just wondering if there are any preferences in where we draw the 'tune' of the chants?

Nope. We've got a pretty broad range but the ones which are taken up quickly are generally simpler ones.

Feel free to throw any ideas you might have in here and we can try and give 'em a run

Great!

Any chance theres a pre-season game(s) we could head down to and practice some chants?

(I tried looking for a dedicated pre-season thread to no avail)

To be honest, not really something we've done in the past. They're playing at pluim tomorrow night and I'd be keen to give a few a run, however I don't know if enough of the active contingent will be going

Here is the official version of the song sung at the Victory Parade.

Not something that is likely to be sung by Bay 16, as I doubt we have the talent these guys have. But a great way to remember our Championship win.

I've put the lyrics, as best as I can hear them. Correct me if I've got any of it wrong.


We're Mariners (Tro-Phey!)
(Tune - Ho Hey - The Lumineers)


Tro-phy!
Tro-phy!
Tro-phy!

We've been close so many times.
We've been waiting all our lives.
Now we've beat the Black & Red.
Hold the trophy above our head.
Hold the trophy above our head.

Because we're all a family.
Living the football dream.
Zwaanswijk knocked that header in.
And McBreen a penalty.
Now we won the A-League.

We're Yellow & we're Blue.
We're living near the sea.
We're Mariners.

We're Yellow & we're Blue.
We're living near the sea.
We're Mariners.

Central Coast can celebrate.
Terrigal to Tuggerah Lakes.
Took a bus to Sydney Town
And now we wear the crown.
And now we wear the crown.

Lets stand here singing now.

We're Yellow & we're Blue.
We're living near the sea.
We're Mariners.

We're Yellow & we're Blue.
We're living near the sea.
We're Mariners.

Yeah We got it now.
Central Coast's the one.
Yeah, we believe it now.

We're Yellow & we're Blue.
We're living near the sea.
We're Mariners.

We're Yellow & we're Blue.
Living near the sea.
We're Mariners.

We're Yellow & we're Blue.
Living near the sea.
We're Mariners.

Tro-phy!
Tro-phy!

McGlinchey!

Wouldn't it be great to produce a quality song involving the players with the Yellow Army backing!

I feel that this would make a great pre-game song. The beginning part with "tro-phy" could be replaced by "coast" with just the chorus "We're Yellow and we're Blue. Playing by the sea, we're Mariners!!!"

My opinion, reckon its simple, catchy and sums up the team pretty well

 

[priorpeter]

My 2 cents - definitely not for me.

 

[midfielder]

Not my strong suite this thread ... but he pushes on regardless ...

Given we are going to get a cannon to fire each time we score ... there is a couple of lines in this Creedence song ... about 35 seconds into the song he says point teh cannon at you ... change words like point the cannon at .... Scum, Cove RBB etc ...

 

[eenfish]

Just a reminder, can we definitely sing this when Marcitos scores a goal?

 

[priorpeter]

This will be getting a run.



Coasties (Coasties)
Coasties (Coasties)
Come on you yellow & blue (Come on you yellow & blue)
Come on you yellow & blue (Come on you yellow & blue)
A-League Champions (A-league Champions)
A-League Champions (A-league Champions)

(unless anyone comes up with something that fits better in the last line??)

There's your signature tune ladies and gents.

Done right, and if we don't flog it to death, you could get that going around the whole ground, and on clear nights we'll get noise complaints from Woy Woy.

The line in the original "Come on you boys in green" is one syllable shorter than "Come on you yellow & blue" so I'd suggest ditching the "you" so it doesn't stutter.

"A-League Champions" is fine - we'll always be Champions. "Pride of NSW" works too. "Fortress Graham Park" as well...

Isn't woy woy a bogan town

 

[eenfish]

Isn't woy woy a bogan town

You've never been to Woy Woy? Top place.

 

[bikinigirl]

Isn't woy woy a bogan town

. this made me laugh considering your avatar ... methinks that pic is rather appropriate

 

[sydmariner]

Actually I have

 

[MagpieMariner]

Isn't woy woy a bogan town

No, it's the world's largest above-ground cemetery, according to Spike Milligan.
Actually we residents of Woy Woy resent being lumped in with Scumcastle.

 

[sydmariner]

Well at least it's less bogan than the shire

 

[style_cafe]

I still can`t get this song out of my head
Mara, Mara, Mariner`s
Oooh,oooh ooooh ooh oooh ooh oooh....
