The Anthem

[jiggles]

So here is the ultimate question.

If you don't like it...what do you suggest in place of it?

*waits*

 

[FFC Mariner]

Sailing

 

[Deej]

Sailing

This was the only other suggestion that I didn't mind when talking about an anthem ages ago, I agree it could work well and fits in well.  Appropriate for the club too.

I also like ICHFIL and believe it fits well, majority seemed to go with ICHFIL 6 months ago

 

[marinermick]

no reason why both songs cannot be used and sdee which one evolves stronger over time

 

[jiggles]

"Don't change it. I f**kin' love Rod".

 

[mariners4ever]

Sailing

Now thats a v.good anthem

 

[Lisarow Yellow (Pooley)]

sailing id have more support for as it has some type of reference to the club, but isnt something a lot of the fans might know.

that being said, i like the fields of Athenry.

but something like Crowded House's Better be home soon could work.

 

[FFC Mariner]

LM will just love us to sing that...............probably run over and belt out a few good Rangers tunes

 

[Lisarow Yellow (Pooley)]

sweet caroline is another one that could have a impact

 

[Arabmariner]

Sailing

Only the left footers will sing that one 

 

[MrCelery]

I'd sing 'Sailing' (badly, but with gusto!). Definitely in keeping with the maritime theme of the Club. And 'Rockin Rod' is a footballer! And a much more ballsy song than Elvis's. Easier to sing too.


See 3:25 for the crowd having a go:

Must say I like the guitar work in both clips too.

 

[Lisarow Yellow (Pooley)]

Lyrics arnt bad too

I am sailing, I am sailing,
home again 'cross the sea.
I am sailing, stormy waters,
to be near you, to be free.

I am flying, I am flying,
like a bird 'cross the sky.
I am flying, passing high clouds,
to be with you, to be free.

Can you hear me, can you hear me
thro' the dark night, far away,
I am dying, forever trying,
to be with you, who can say.

Can you hear me, can you hear me,
thro' the dark night far away.
I am dying, forever trying,
to be with you, who can say.

We are sailing, we are sailing,
home again 'cross the sea.
We are sailing stormy waters,
to be near you, to be free.

Oh Lord, to be near you, to be free.
Oh Lord, to be near you, to be free,
Oh Lord.

 

[FFC Mariner]

Bear to do the ridiculous high note at the end though.

 

[Part_Timer]

Alot of loud E-voices

 

[bjw]

Alot of loud E-voices

+1

I kinda like it (shut up Alicia, not because Rod = awesome). But he is a Celtic supporter....

Sweet Caroline. OMG. That's the ultimate "I'm trashed at grabbas and want to sing like a cumtwat" song. I love it.
