Mimglow Posted April 25, 2004 Author Share Posted April 25, 2004 Okay... Here's one that can be used with any of our players with 3 syllables in their last name. It's mindless and could catch on easily. To the Tune of Aerosmith's "Sweet Emotion": Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet De Guuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuz Man. Or... Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet Me neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee Zes. Or... Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet Rad Ziiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiin Ski. You get the picture. It could just be repeated again and again after one of these guys scores or makes a nice play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matthew Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 I like the pro-Canada chants more than the anti-whoever chants, but the Belize are so bad is pretty classic. We're red we're white we're phequing dynamite Canada Canada Wasn't the Radzinski one originally: rah-rah-Radzinski Canada's greatest goal-maching He puts the ball in the back of the goal How do about Danke Schoen (the song from the parade in Ferris Bueller) after a goal: Danke Schoen Peschy/humey/Stalteri Danke Shoen Nice simple and with a slightly German theme . . . Another really simple one is the DeRo chant similar to the Keano chant you hear from ManU and Chelsea fans. I like the Great Escape as well and Franky Yallop's barmy army with the drumming/clapping would sound decent. cheers, matthw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheeta Posted April 25, 2004 Share Posted April 25, 2004 quote:Originally posted by Mimglow To the tune of Boney M's "Rasputin": Allow me to quote Dr. Evil in replying... "How about NO you crazy, Dutch, bastard?!!!!" Hmmmm. As much as this may be getting out of hand, and Lord knows I'm not one to go overboard (?), Matthew is probably right. Got to get rolling on a signature song for the lads. Something that'll haunt their travels across this great land of ours. Something altogether familiar to most Canuckheads with an easy to follow tempo and catchy chorus. At least then if you're not singing along you can keep the rythm with clapping. ****, it's going to have to be a Stompin' Tom tune then (Good ol' football game??). Maybe something early from The Tragically Hip. I don't know. This is gonna take a good long think and a fresh box of crayons... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
denilsonfc Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 simple is the easiest/best... example: ra-ra-radzinski, ra-ra-radzinski.. just imagine that, thousands of canadian fans chanting that, the entire pitch can hear it... like for example some of the best chants are the easiest to remember and you can actually understand what they're saying, like the old West Ham chant... "Paolo Diii Cannniooo" in the beat of that old Italian song.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figure we'll need a Hip song, since we'll be in Kingston...I just think it should be one that everyone knows well, for the people at the match and the folks watching on the tube... I'm sure Cheeta will come up with something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it will be sung, but frankly we should strive for some form of North American originality. I doubt that I need to include that one in the songbook, since everyone and their uncle knows that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gian-Luca Posted April 26, 2004 Share Posted April 26, 2004 I don't see the burgeoning need to do a Hip song just because we are in Kingston - by that logic we should do a chant to the theme tune for Coach's Corner. I also don't think we need to restrict ourselves to Canadian tunes in general, lest we end up spending a miserable day singing words to Celine Dion, Shania Twain or the Barenaked Ladies. If it sounds catchy, simple and natural and it fits let's use it, regardless of where it's from. Also, not every chant has to be in the form of a song. "Marco! Reda!" in the form of the "Marco! Polo!" swimming pool shouting game would be sufficient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything that is catchy will end up in the songbook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Varsity Tyler Posted May 9, 2004 Share Posted May 9, 2004 We should do something to to tune of "Home For A Rest" by Spirit of the West. Modified lyrics for the chorus could be something like You'll have to excuse us, we're not at our best. You've been gone fer four years, we've been pissed since you left. These Euro friendlies will soon be our death. We're so sick of the road, come home for a rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belizean Posted May 18, 2004 Share Posted May 18, 2004 Fresh From Belize Go Belize! Go Belize! Let's make the canadians freeze Show them some of our might And watch them pee their pants in fright I no longer hear them singing And this is just the beginning Could it be that the canadians are sore? But what the heck just give them some more The Canucks boasted that they would walk over us Now they rush to catch the early bus I hope they learned the lesson That the humble giant is not mess'n They trust Frank Yallop But all he showed them was how to gallop No More Guatemala, Honduras or Cost' Rica Best thing they start preparing for South Africa What a shame But all the critics of this forum are to blame Peace from Belize.

sstackho Posted June 7, 2004 Share Posted June 7, 2004 How the hell do you pronounce Peschisolido anyway? I've always gone with Peshi-sol-LEE-doh (probably due to my first FIFA video game that had announcers), although he's sometimes pronounced Pesh-shee-SOL-idoh. With the former pronounciation, it doesn't fit too badly into the "There's only one..."/"Guantanamera" tune. (except there's too many syllables to fit all the "there's only" words in ) PESCHISOLIDO! ONLY ONE PESCHISOLIDO! PESCHISOLEEEEEDOOOOOO! ONLY ONE PESCHISOLIDOOOOO.... or replace the ONE with PAUL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canadienfan Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 You all know the only song ever sung in Canada (other than the ones sung by the usual 30 to 50 die-hards) is Go Canada Go. You might as well try writing under the song title "the greatest song that no will sing". I love the sign that says "Canada welcomes British Honduras".Classic!!! Go Canada Go!!!!!!!!!!
