Song for Osvaldo!?


Ulrich van Gobbel

Recommended Posts

He was wearing a John and Yoko t-shirt today, which was probably a reference to the first line of the Ballad of John and Yoko, 'standing at the docks in Southampton'. If we were as effortlessly cool as Dani himself, we would come up with a song based on this to show we got the reference.
Good spot that.

Playing on the pitch for Southampton,

You know he's gonna get us a goal

Seventeen on his back, and he's gonna attack ya

The one and only Osvaldo

 

*repeat*

Can even clap along for those unable to stop themselves as it's quite fast paced.

Pretty good. Possibly needs two verses for the chorus? the song is perfect for football, pretty status quoy and sing-a-longy

So he's a massive Stones fan.. His favourite group... How about something really easy... To the chorus and main riff of I Can't Get No Satisfaction...

 

(Clapping accompanying throughout)

De de der ner neeeer

Ner neer na

De de der ner na neeeer

Ner neer na

 

(Chorus to the 'I can't get noooo' bit)

Score us a great goal

Dan-niiiii Os-vaaaaaal-do

(Repeat)

 

Back to the riff etc.. Simple, no lyrics to learn, just the riff and shouting his name... Feel free to embellish all you song writers. It reminds me of something Celtic might sing, be all up clapping and pogoing too...

 

Well I can't stop singing it anyway :-)

Not bad. That last line doesn't quite fit though does it? Not that I have an alternative to mind.

I'd love to hear a bit more rock and roll coming from the terraces.

 

We know that he likes Pink Floyd but I find their tunes aren't so chant-worthy. He also likes The Rolling Stones and I've had a couple of ideas based on their songs.

 

To the tune of Miss You:

 

Na na na na, nananah, Na na na na, nananah, Osvaldo! and repeat.

 

And (my favourite) to the tune of It's Only Rock and Roll:

 

[video=youtube_share;JGaBlygm0UY]

 

I know, Osvaldo scored a goal, and I like it! and repeat.

 

FWIW I think "It's Only Rock n Roll" works really well - with the advantage of being simple

 

Needs a bit of work but something on the lines of

 

"Osvaaaldo - he's gonna score a goal and we like it

Osvaldo - he's gonna score a goal and we like it - like it- yes we do!"

 

Alternatively change "he's gonna score a goal" with "he's scored another goal" or "he scores us lots of goals" or similar and it with him or a variation.

Os-val-do der nerr nerrrr de nerr ner

 

Os-val-do der nerr nerrr de nerr nerr (I can't get no)

 

and repeat.

Just listening to the track again a few times... we need to use the

 

...and I try, and I try, and I try DANI OS-VAL-DO!

 

It builds up so well

 

From the start of the tune....

 

He scores great gooooalsss

He's a saint noowwww

 

He scores great gooooalsss (could change this verse for something else rather than just repeat like the stones do)

He's a saint noowwww

 

And I try

And I tryyy

AND I TRYYYYY!!!

AND I TRYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!

 

HE SCORES GREAT GOALS!!!

DANI OS-VAL-DO!!!!

 

Then all the derr ner nerrs can come back in.. maybe even start with them too... its so catchy... and everyone knows the tune.

I think it has to be Wild Horses. It's his favourite song and could introduce another slower song. Not much change needed.

 

Wild horses, couldn't drag me away

Daniel Osvaldo, we love watching you play.

Wild horses, couldn't drag me away

Daniel Osvaldo score a go-al today

That Gimmie shelter one was a really good try but it's not quite there.

 

Love the "When the ball goes in, hear Southampton sing, Dani Osvaldooooooo, Dani Osvaldoooooo" one though, to the Tadanari Lee Sushi/Viva Ronaldo song. And the "Satisfaction" suggestion might be good as well. Due to it being a tune that everybody knows and the "I can't get no" bit rhymes with "Osvaldo" so sure something can fit there.

How about to:

 

Weee know Dani's rock'n'roll and we like it,

Weee know Dani's rock'n'roll and we like it

We know Dani's rock'n'roll and we like it, like it like it, yes we do,

 

Yes we like it, when Dani's going to score, yes we like it, when Dani's gonna score, yes we like it, when Dani's gonna score

 

Weeee know Osvaldo's gonna score and we like it, like it, yes we do

Just another ball in the goal ! (Brick in the wall)

 

Exactly (with a bit of tuning) He's got a Pink Floyd 'wall' tattoo - gotta be (to the tune of 'Another Brick in the Wall').

 

Os-val-do - he'll put the, ball in the goal.

 

or

 

Os-val-do - he'll put the, ball in the goal. S! F! C!

 

(whatever - it's the same tune)

 

repeat...

 

Perish the thought that it's slightly original... why not do one to 'come on feel the noise' by Slade cos you heard Man Utd singing it at Swansea... grrrh.
