Ian Crabbe Posted October 1, 2017 Report Share Posted October 1, 2017 I’m sure everyone would agree Bobby is on fire,had a thought for a song. One for the teenagers,check out “Viva Bobby Joe”,by the Equals,from way back in 1967,good catchy tune,sure some bright spark can make something out of it. From Crabbie33.

ollywhyte Posted October 1, 2017 Report Share Posted October 1, 2017 Would be the perfect song to be fair! something like: Bobby Reid, (or we've got) viva, Bobby Reid Bobby Reid, viva, Bobby ReidViva, vivaViva, Bobby Reid, vivaBobby Reid our goal scoring machine, yeah, yeahEverybody's gonna see a sensation, a sensationA sensation, hear what I say now *repeat* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meh Posted October 1, 2017 Report Share Posted October 1, 2017 Any song has to be a tune people would know well or changing a current chant to fit his name in I would have thought. At least 80s onwards surely? Just pick a well know tune and add some words Example ;- Wham party :- Wham Bam - Bobby passed to Fam Job for our Cotts, I can tell you that it’s not! Le-ko control what you do, if not; just stop and Bobby will take the shot. Could go 70s at a push with a bit of ABBA :- Flowing pass, flowing move - ahaaaa there is nothing Reid can’t do - flowing pass, flowing move - ahaaaa he is going to beat you this time yes it’s true - losing bad is never easy I know but Bobby will beat you. Etc !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeAman08 Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 Surely something much more modern for the young guys on the pitch. I'll post this but it isn't perfect as I'm just led in bed thinking about football songs now. How about to the tune of Ignition(Remix) by R. Kelly Bobby Reid's on the pitch and You'd better be listenin He twists and turns his body got defenders missin he does what he wants so what he's young its the freakin weekend he score goals for fun I'll leave now..

Midlands Robin Posted October 2, 2017 Report Share Posted October 2, 2017 If things are getting a bit overheated during the match, 18000 fans launching into a beautiful rendition of a song for Bobby to the tune of Edelweiss would no only sound gorgeous but also help to calm things down: Bobby Reid..... Bobby Reid...... Every matchday you greet me Red and white, Day and night You look happy at City Scoring a goal May you bloom and grow Bloom and grow forever... Imagine that eh? All those voices in perfect harmony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
