Yes - it should be a LOT louder than it is. On a really big sound system.

It's not brilliant, it's embarrassingly crass.

Hey guys, I've got a suggestion!
You know this Falmer stuff yeah.... why don't we stay at Withdean instead?

This thread got me thinking - so I slapped together a little You Tube. Poor image quality and crap editing, but you get the idea:

Having read all the responses, I have to agree with the ones that talk about having a better version of GOSBTS made in time for Falmer.
The version we have had all these years does the tune no justice and doesn't really 'get everyone going' as much as a majestic version like someone said they played at the Millenium Stadium.
It is indeed our tune...it could just be a whole lot better.
Put Your Hands Up For Brighton works well as a warm up record or maybe could be used when we score...just a thought.
I'm not one for change generally, I am a traditionalist, I just think that the version the we use at present has maybe had its day...like someone said...it sounds like an old 33rpm being played through tin pot speakers.
I just want something that will really really stir the crowd and probably a 'beefed up' version of GOSBTS is the answer.....time for another poll?

Music after a goal is the wankiest wanky thing EVER. FACT !
I remember they had a Big Band orchestra on the pitch for some games during one season as pre-match entertainment. The team used to run out to them playing Glenn Millers 'In the mood', (I think it was Allan Mullerys favourite tune), exciting times eh !

Yes, it is a thought. Just another very, very stupid one. Enough of this crap already, in the nicest possible way.

GOSBTB is already 100 years old, and with all due respect to FBS his stuff won't stand the test of time in quite the same way.
What he really needs to do is create a banging remix of GOSBTS. I see the appeal of a modern version of an old classic but a brand new tune at the expense of our traditional anthem is not desirable.

GOSBTS is classic and is as much a part of our tradition as the stripes.

Only decent remix of gosbts is version heard at worthing, but the original is played out most of the time now, here remix occasionaly.
If GOSBTS was a shite dirge or as DULL as, say, Goodnight Irene (sung at Bristol Rovers) then you may have grounds for a reasonable debate.
But it isn't. GOSBTS makes my hair stand on end sometimes. It's passionate, it's local, it's ours.
So you can f*** off with your shit poll.

I was playing cricket in Corfu Town a few years ago, and there was a brass-band entertaining the spectators at the side of the ground. When they started playing GOSBTS, not only was it a surreal moment, but also somthing I'll remember for the rest of my life...

Indeed. On a long ago birthday, Mrs P and I were enjoying cocktails in The Grand when I got up to go to the loo. When I came back into the bar pianist started playing GOSBTS as Mrs P had asked him to when I came back. I nearly burst into tears *sniff*
