Saint_Randell Posted 28 June, 2012 Share Posted 28 June, 2012 We've definitely got slightly better at it recently, was suprised at how good it sounded when I watched the Coventry game back on TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eelpie Posted 28 June, 2012 Share Posted 28 June, 2012 How many versions are there out there? Perhaps we should have a sticky so that we can aim to list most if not all of them (with links) - before our Premiership first match. I would love it if the club played a different version each week before the players came out. For the record, my favourites are by Fats Domino and the George Lewis New Orleans Band. Humphrey Littleton did a pretty hot one too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supersubpuckett Posted 28 June, 2012 Share Posted 28 June, 2012 Didn't the team used to run out to a slightly disco version of it (circa 2003) We certainly need to reclaim it as ours Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

st alex Posted 28 June, 2012 Share Posted 28 June, 2012 This song might be better suited to Saints? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Bells_of_St._Mary%27s_%28song%29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dune Posted 28 June, 2012 Share Posted 28 June, 2012 Traditional all the way for me. I hate the fast version and I hate the slow Spurs version. This is how it should be sung. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dune Posted 28 June, 2012 Share Posted 28 June, 2012 It'll be embarrassing as they sing it much better than us. Only because the nauseating slow version they sing is marginally better than the chavy fast version we sing, and now we've started singing the nauseating slow version and the chavy fast version. I remember when we used to sing it properly (as in my video above). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint J 77 Posted 1 July, 2012 Share Posted 1 July, 2012 (edited) Cant stand that 'SPURS' version its sounds so fake ,almost forced. i prefer the saints original , theres plenty of saints clips on youtube . does what it says on the tin, it gets the job done .thats all that matters. Its funny, an old Spurs friend claims its their song for the terraces. Apparently they sang it before started singing it. I know its bull, but whatever the truth is and Whatever the Spurs fans claims to the ownership of the Song "Oh When the Saints" (or Spurs, as they sing it) are. They can't change the FACT the original words are "Oh when the SAINTS go marching in" and anything they change it in to will never alter that Edited 1 July, 2012 by Saint J 77 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1960saint Posted 1 July, 2012 Author Share Posted 1 July, 2012 Most football clubs copy southamptons Original version ,putting a different slant on it but never heard pompey sing it . too many words to remember i guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
