beachesl Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 quote:Originally posted by Current Champ 'I'm a little excited, and I'm a little drunk, I'm trying not to be, very very loud." It's pretty catchy and quickly became my battle march for the rest of the night. (A good Canadian post goal chant, I'd say) Word. Pretty catchy, only if you're drunk! Funny how things can seem better than they are when you're drunk..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free kick Posted July 2, 2004 Share Posted July 2, 2004 quote:Originally posted by torontosupport Always true, but we sang A LOT in Kingston. Really, we kept it going for most of the match(es) with no problem. As K-head says...as long as there are Southsiders there to lead the way (as the Ultras did in Kingston) I think we'll have some purty tunes. But the singing will be limited to us lot, and therefore I concede the point to your English chums. There's no way will see 20,000 people in Commonwealth signing anything. You can actually hear the chants when watching the games on TV. I watched the second game in Kingston on TV and, althought the supporters section was much smaller for that game, you could still be heard. Hence we do add ambiance. It don't think we come across apathetic since even 20 people can be heard and add to the ambiance IMO. But I must admit when you hear certain chants on TV such as the " Who's your father referee" refrain you get a different perspective on it ( compared to when you re actually there participating ). Knowing that TV viewers accross the country can hear it. Since watching on TV, I have been having second thoughts about ever participating in that chant in the future.

Former Champ Posted July 3, 2004 Author Share Posted July 3, 2004 [:0][:0][:0]When I was a kid I was lucky enough to see lots of NASL games, including a few in Van. Does anybody remember the "Oogie oogie oogie! Fight Fight Fight!" chant? That one was pretty popular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarnCherry Posted July 3, 2004 Share Posted July 3, 2004 That chant is still done at Whitecaps games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue and White Army Posted July 3, 2004 Share Posted July 3, 2004 quote:Originally posted by torontosupport Say what? It was "Canada" by Lazy Susan, an Australian band. The song came out in November 2000. More of a pop song than a rock song, on second thought. Here's the lyrics (and guitars chords): http://www.ozmusic-central.com.au/oztabs/jkl/lazysusan/Canada.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Former Champ Posted July 4, 2004 Author Share Posted July 4, 2004 Y'know... That aussie song just might hit the spot for the U-19's. Someone should send them a copy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue and White Army Posted September 12, 2004 Share Posted September 12, 2004 Another odd Canuck song I heard on a British TV show: Artist: Sam Roberts Album: We Were Born In A Flame Title: The Canadian Dream First stanza is innocent enough, but then it gets all pinko...

Yes, it would seem "pinko" to the very country hell-bent on giving George Bush the lap-dance of his life. Come on England, get some nuts like you used to have!! (Actually, I think I'm confusing reckless Imperialism with courage, my mistake.) Vive le Sam Roberts!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
