The Song The Players Walk Out To!!!!

Post by Gooner1315 »

Ok this might have been done,but iv looked through 3 pages and got bored and couldnt see anything. I suppose it could be put in the Atmosphere thread but shit happens.

So do you like "The Wonder Of You" as our song?? I personally fucking hate it with a passion.

So what song do you reckon would get the crowd buzzing and up for it?? Instead of the song that makes everyone mellow and puts them to sleep.

I liked "Fatboy Slim,Right Here Right Now" when i got played at highburty (R.I.P). "Clubfoot by Kasabian" werent bad either.

Any other suggestions??

I like 'Wonder of You'... but it's a song to sing to as you're washing the dishes... or, er...something more manly. Scratching your bollocks... yeah, that'll do :oops: It's not a football anthem! :roll:

For me.... why mess around... it should be GOOD OLD ARSENAL!!

That's the Arsenal anthem, isn't it? Everton have Z-Cars, Liverpool have You'll Never Wlak Alone, ManUSA probably have the theme tune to Dallas, or something like that... but we have GOOD OLD ARSENAL!

It's a good song and the fans like it.. and they can even sing the words! *shock horror*

This has been discussed loads of times.

But fair question: why don't we come out to 'Good Old Arsenal'? At least it would get people singing along.

I effing hate it. the wonder of who??

Perhaps they should ask the team and get a concesus of what they would want to listen to and use that one. i cant imagine any of them chosing the wonder of you,,, apart from maybe Eboli, for whom it would be quite fitting as we all wonder what the hell he is doing on the pitch.

I don't mind Wonder Of You, but would always prefer Good Old Arsenal at ridiculously loud volume. Oh, and without Paul Burrell insisting on talking over the top of whatever the music may be. Why does he do that "Introducing Arsenal and (whoever it may be)"? We know who's playing, we bought tickets for fucks sake.

Good old Arsenal all the time. The Wonder of You clearly hasn't caught on and hasn't got anything to do with Arsenal. Plus I don't like Elvis!

On a side note, always thought Bridge Over Troubled Water, would be great if played before a big match. If everyone sang that before a game it would be a tremendous moment. Other than Good old Arsenal, this is the only song I'ld want played before a big game.

Perhaps we just have something more befitting the atmosphere, How about " It's Oh So Quiet " by Bjork

i think we should play the sky sports song they use for the darts. It would get the fans and players up for the games, and wake a few people up.
