The lyrics to the Impossible Dream are ideal, spine tingling in fact. But I don't know the song so have no idea of the tune!! Anyone know anywhere on the net I can find it?

I agree with everyone who has suggested London Calling. A proper spine tingler it could be.

I reckon "my way" by frank sinatra could work.

Impossible Dream might work, but I think it might actually be a difficult one to sing.

But I think we've forgotten we're ALL Londoners, because of the team we support. Are we too embarrassed these days to sing " Maybe its because I'm a Londoner..." because we know so many supporters travel in from the home counties or further? I think "London Calling" would be awesome & can just imagine it being belted out over the speakers at the start. It would scare the living daylights out of the opposition for sure!

With lyrics about sinking and living by the river London Calling is probably more appropriate at Charlton or Fulham.

I dont see how that would be appropriate for team game like football.

It cud maybe be used as a themetune on sum documentree of jose but we cudnt use it as an anthem

Charlton DO already play Londons calling!! and i don't see how it would work as an anthem it's not exactly easy to sing along to. Impossible dream is the best idea so far.

I think whole song will get sung at beggining of match but when we sing it by ourselves i think it will just be chorus onwards. "This is my quest" to the end.

To dream the impossible dream...
