[Albion] Some chants just aren't used anymore

A few that I'm on about would be:
Brighton Boys
When I was just a little boy
Glory Glory Brighton and Hove Albion

Even Hark Now Hear seems to only be used every now and again.

Sure we have sung them, but how often? Chants like these have become less used in favour of newer chants.
I like 'everywhere we go' but do we really need to sing it for 2 minutes and about 6 or 7 times a game? Probably not.

Edit: Sea, Sea, Seasiders pops up every blue moon as well
If I never hear Glory Glory Brighton and Hove Albion again it'll be too soon.
IT. DOESN'T. SCAN.

I can't stand the "everywhere we go" chant, nobody knows the words to the last bit.
"Watching Brighton and Hove Albion
Mur mmm mur mmm coast."

Strongly disagree about Caicedo’s song - it’s great! Mind you I like a lot of ABBA songs too!😊
Shoreham Road originally used manager’s names didn’t it? I certainly recall Alan Mullery’s Aces but appreciate the name of our team gave it more longevity
Does anyone actually know the words to the Caicedo song other than CAI-SAY-DOUGHHH, way to fast to make out.

I always liked, and would love to hear it more often;

Albion Albion Albion
Albion Albion Albee-u-un
Albion Albion Albion
Albion AL BE UN

Probably as it brings back memories from when I first went to the Goldstone in the late 70s.
The one to the tune of Here We Go/Stars and Stripes Forever? Yes, I agree - should definitely get sung more.

Also can't work out why we don't chant a simple, insistent Albion, Albion, Albion etc in the same cadence that Arsenal and Everton do. Would be effective at corners, or when we're putting the opposition under pressure, and the whole stadium could (in theory) join in, even those with blankets atop knees.

"We're gunna score in a minute, score in a minute!"

Seem to remember that sung a lot at matches all over the country but not heard in ages

When your smiling the whole world smiles with you. This was great in the 70s.

Another good one from that era went :- to the tune of Knock Kneed Chicken

Bertie Mee said to Bill Shankly,
Have you heard of the Arsenal Highbury
Shank said no, I don't think so,
But I've heard of the Brighton boot boys.

Na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na
we are the Brighton boot boys
