EastEnder Posted June 26, 2005 Report Share Posted June 26, 2005 Drink up thee cider wasn't a Bristol City song. It has been adopted by us as Adge Cutler pinned his colours to the mast most City fans have an affection towards the Wurzles and an obvious identity with the accent (but not the dress)Therefore most of the Wurzles songs are sung by City fans:Where be that blackbird toMorning Glory (Now one for the Bristol City)I am a cider drinker - Anything else to do with cider for that matterYou could even argue that Rolf Harris did a song for the Reds with "Two little boys" as that has been sung at various setting by the 3 Lions boys amounst others.Hi Ho Silver Lining was adopted by all football fans in the 70s but still sung with gusto by City ala Sheffield Weds away last season!The best songs for identity still come from that era and are generally made up as opposed to sung by any band, but we do have quite a few new ones that we have made our ownThe family (Swinedon, Plymuff, Bahdiff, etc)One of those teamsMy ole manLeroy Lita is our friendand of course Your brother's in borstal......New or old keep em coming Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordofthebling Posted June 27, 2005 Report Share Posted June 27, 2005 I got told by my good friend that the song Thriller, by Michael Jackson and Paul Mcartney's the frog song followed the inspiration that Agogo brought on the outside world at birth...If you mix em both together, you can see a scary likeness...+=And "back where you belong" by Foreigner was an anthem for away fans visiting the mem hole...You bunch of sag headed chumbawumbas!

If not, can you get it in to your shared directory? At the end of the day, if I can download "Big Bad John" for the old man, any songs a possibility!I haven't heard On Bristol City for about 10 years, but, still managed to sing the whole thing on the way to work this morning.
