NEW SONG

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

NEW SONG

Post by TheOne2Smooth »

to the tune of let it be:

When we found ourselves in times of trouble Arsene Wenger came to me
Speaking words of wisdom, sell Henry
And when we got the cash from Barcelona who would our new striker be?
Arsene said politely: van Persie
van Persie, van Persie, van Persie, van Persie, he will be the answer, van Persie

I think the word Barcelona should be changed to just Barca

try it out in the pub, and see if it works

Not that i can really speak on Mr 2Smooth's behalf (or anyone else's for that matter) but i'm sure he was just posting it in tribute and trying to bring attention to it rather than attempting to steal the credit from our very own Gooner Lennon & McCartney (aka Jim & Ben)!

Either way it's a good song so whoever is lucky enough to be going this weekend - Saturday and/or Sunday - how about seeing if this one can take off!

Speaking of Lennon & McCartney, here's another Beatles song for adaptation... Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0O7yUJB ... ed&search= - would have made a great song for Obafemi Martin's if we'd bought him, but maybe we can use it for someone else... Adebayor perhaps?

Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da
A-de-bayyyyy-or
La la la la Ar-se-nal


Feel free anyone to change it for any other player.

Whoever came up with this song (i know it was the beatles) this is the kind of material we need rather than the same old tunes used for different players. Moan Utd have about three songs for each player, we cannot adopt one for our and Brazillian captain!!!!
I am in the redaction section and this would go down a treat. C'mon gooners lets start getting behind these efforts and make some stick on the terraces!!!!

AFC
C'mon

Yeah good idea actually Ben 8) , Diaby does need a new song to be honest instead of recycling the old Viera song.

How about this version, plus a verse to go with it...

Arsene doesn’t spend much in the market place
Paddy disappeared to Italy
Arsene said to Abou don’t I know your face?
You look just like the next Paddy V


Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da
Who’s Vierrr-ia?
Diii-a-by is a Gooner


or alternatively this could be the chorus - just in case the one above sounds a bit disrespectful to Paddy...

Di-a-by, You are the
New Vierrr-ia
La-la how the life goes on


It works pretty well when you compare it to the original Beatles lyrics, IMHO at least!

And to Worthing Gooner, cheers... look forward to maybe hearing the red section at the Grove bellowing this one out this season?

Cheers Ben

Might take a leaf out of Stearmaster's book and email it to RedAction. You should do the same with yours & Jim's RVP song... i've waited years for somebody to come up with a decent song for Robin!
