Phileas Fogg Posted August 15, 2017 Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 I hope we come up with something a bit more imaginative than the usual hey Jude and 'do do do do Famara Died-diou' He's our record signing.. surely worth a better chant than the usual tunes we recycle from Baldock/Maynard/Agard etc Why is it that clubs like United come up with good chants like this all the time? Unique, catchy and clever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phileas Fogg Posted August 15, 2017 Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 The 'pisa-pisa-pisano' chant is the best one I've heard. Very easy to remember and pretty unique.

Unique, catchy and clever. The problem with getting completely new tunes/chants started properly, is that nobody knows them. Obviously! Utd do come up with some great chants.

Nogbad the Bad Posted August 15, 2017 Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 Might help to have a chant/songs thread. We know we've got regular OTIB contributors who are also in S82, i.e. @Harry, and that's the area any new chants are likely to be taken up in any numbers. They can take any likely new chants offered up on here, modify them a bit if necessary, and give them a go in the singing section to see if they take off. Will inevitably get a load of rubbish, but there'll be the odd good one in there too. The only rule, imo, should be they have to be original.

Not sure how United spread their chants so well - seems everyone knows them and they've got loads of great ones. Best away following in the country in my opinion; only the real hardcore get away tickets. I agree - we're much much much better than average. So glad we don't sing that recycled stuff like 'when I was young' that loads of teams do. What happened to that song we used to sing maybe 10 years ago? Came from the EE. It had no lyrics, a bit like the dobby doo song. Evolved into that '**** off back, **** off back, **** off back to (town name) YOU C****s! I wondered if it was one from Willem II originally. Felt it was really good before we added the words. Anyone know where that came from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My friend sent me a video clip of where this originally came from. You'll piss yourselves if I tell you what it was!

Listen chap, I haven't composed anything on a forum, it's only a bit of fun, I haven't heard a song about our new striker, the housemartins one is original, fits with his name, and were a band a lot of lads like, if you don't like it fair enough, but why comment?

It's not that one, not nearly as well known as that and only sung sporadically. It's evolved into a different chant altogether now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
