QuoteHow 'bout "I get knocked down but I get up again" or whatever it's called. Every team needs to cultivate a fighting spirit.
Just reading through tuesday nites programme and i saw that they are trying to come up wit a song to welcome the team onto the pitch any ideas i think 'we will rock you' is a classic and would get the crowd goin for sure.
How 'bout "I get knocked down but I get up again" or whatever it's called. Every team needs to cultivate a fighting spirit.
I always think the old rocky song is the job...
dent...dent dent dent ...dent dent deeent
dent...dent dent dent ...dent dent deeent
Rising up ........etc etc.....
???????
Call me old fashioned but I think we should have "the Banks".
Its a uniquely Cork song, everyone knows it and will sing it, even people in the stand.
Imagine the whole Cross singing it as City come out for a big game against Bohs or Rovers.
"we will rock you" etc are played at grounds all over the world. We should have a song that says "we're from Cork, this is our patch and we're going to bust a gut to win this game"
I think people can email their suggestions for songs.
i remember a few years back this topic was being discussed on an old cork city forum and a somewhat surprisingly popular nomination was 'The Hustle'
that's what they play in waaaaaaaaaaterford, innit?Originally posted by Conor74
Posted this on some thread before, but Krome and
I also suggested Curiosity Killed the Cat's "Straight Back Down" - I just like the song, but the words might be perceived as inviting relegation.
first and formost i dont think we should have an overused cheesey song for the players to run out to.
its got to be something corkonian anyway, but those speakers are still cr*p and what diffrence would it really make to hear music piped out of a 'tin box'.
if we pulled a bohs and got some nice speaker system in it would work a treat.
i beg to differ. if anything the music was too loud before tuesday's match - had to shout just to be heard by guys standing right next to me!Originally posted by fonzi

O Fortuna from "Carmina Burana"
It's only just begun...............
If the last 21 years were class, here's looking forward to the next 21 years. It is our time
The speaker system is a disaster especially in The Shed.
They have gone from can't hear them to can't hear yourself.
Beware the deafness claims !!!
The ultimate solution is to give the microphone to Noelle and leave herself blast out a few all time favourites.
How about "The biys are back in town"!
We're not arrogant, we're just better.
a bit of rory gallagher would be flippin mental!
especially one of his tunes about cork!
"We Will Rock You" belongs more to something like gladiators.
How about "Can't Help Falling in Love" by the King? It's a song that for years was the main shed anthem and could be timed so that the chorus bursts out just as the team is coming on. I never heard any other set of fans sing it un The away team should come out second, to the laurel and hardy music, or the circus tune, or if it's rovers, the Imperial Death March from Star Wars.
"Give him the Ball and Yard of Grass" by the Sultans of Ping FC. The song could be about Georgie, our modern day Nigel Clough.
A RAT TATTAT TATTAT TATTAT TAA
Never mind Noelle, give the mic to Greg when he's coming out onto the field and he'll get us all going!Originally posted by razor

Whatever it was I am sure it was better than my plan to get out of this by pretending to be mad. I mean, who would have noticed another madman around here?
Very funny!Originally posted by Schumi

I think that De Banks should be the one. Its all about Cork and sport and for a local team and local supporters, what could be better?
They used have the theme from 2001:A Space Oddisy during the Mountfield days and I think that it just didnt work although its a cool bit of ceol.
As I say, we're just young & a bit nieve.
There should also be a "sound " thats played when we score like they do in Holland or Belgium. Feyenoord have a great one, it sounds like a Foghorn.
It sounds great. Gets the stadium rocking.

I don't think de banks is a good sound for the purpose intended as not really loud enough.
I think all they need a decent but different tune & makes no difference if no sporting or cork connection.
Not if it were to be re-worked ot something like we sing in the shed.Originally posted by pete

How about a competition for CMN (Cork Music Network)
Ah it does really ...... Think ....... If it was the banks ...... Playing on the speakers ....... AND everyone in the ground singing it aswell.I think all they need a decent but different tune & makes no difference if no sporting or cork connection.
PURE MAD LIKE !!
The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.
