Copied songs..

[Basher1980]

why is it that supporters copy other supporters/teams songs.......... some people dont have an imagination anymore...... i hear it at the amex and also hear it whilst watching footie on the box.... does not make sense to me.

Football chants are usually adapted from popular music, a todays music is full of samples and rehashes of other peoples music it only follows - No original pop music ~ no original football songs.

There's always been an element of copied songs, back in the 1970s absolutely everybody (including Brighton) used to sing You'll never walk alone.

On the subject of new songs I was quite impressed with the people in WSU I block who were singing the tune that I always associate with The Muppets: Da daa da da da! (mer num en a) Da da-da da!

Hard to convey in words but I haven't heard it before!

 

[OSRGull]

Get over it.

Adam El Abd da da da da da

Watching the sky+'d match from saturday, everytime they said his name that song came into my head

It's being going on as long as I've been watching footy.

I agree with the OP. It's one thing to rip off a pop song, which requires a modicum of creativity and selectivity. With all the songs in the world, finding and choosing something that works, and possibly rhymes and scans, does involve some skill.

It's another matter to completely rip off some other team's pop song adaptation by merely deleting their team or player name and replacing it with your own.

I'm assuming that you've both thought of loads of really good and creative song for us all to sing then?

99% of football songs are copied from someone else. In any team, in any league, in any country, anywhere in the world.

So get over it.

 

[eggshell blonde]

Going to Selhurst tomorrow and nothing will piss me off more than us singing that F---NG palace / St pauli song. Its shite, doesnt work for us.

 

[DannyCPFC]

Be good if your lot dont copy our song

 

[¤DãŃn¥ §êãGüLL¤]

Be good if your lot dont copy our song

What makes it your song? Just because it's your main song, doesn't make it yours.

Every other team sings Blaydon Races and When the Saints.... but you don't hear Newcastle and Southampton whining.

 

[Goldstone Rapper]

Be good if your lot dont copy our song

Wouldn't it be dreamy if the whole stadium sang it in unison with their own changed lyrics? Then the crowd could do 'Stand Up If You Hate Brighton/Palace' together, what d'ya reckon?

 

[Jesus Gul]

Yeah...bloody Celtic copying our der, der, der-der, Craig Mik-ael Smith song

 

[Braders]

Be good if your lot dont copy our song

Don't worry , you lot can bloody KEEP Glad all over

ever other song however is up for grabs as to "who originally started it".. believe there was a decent thread about this not too long ago.

 

[Seagull on the wing]

Palace can copy the St Pauli song as a lot of clubs do....but NOBODY...I mean nobody can use 'Sussex by the the Sea'....well maybe Crawley could ...but ...by the Sea....get a life!!!

I take it you don't sing "Seagulls!" then? If no one was allowed to use the same tune for songs we would end up having to apply for patents just in case some obscure team in the depths of the southern conference had sung it once. Get over yourself.
