kwsaint Posted 24 April, 2017 Posted 24 April, 2017 I think most people would admit that walking out to My Way is somewhat tragic (I believe there was a thread not so long ago pointing this out) which got me thinking, which club has the best walking on music? I think for me it's Newcastle United with the theme from 'Local Hero'. Your thoughts (it can be past or present)?
jamesfp1 Posted 25 April, 2017 Posted 25 April, 2017 Man Utd have 'This Is The One' by The Stone Roses, which sounds great
Shandy_Top_89 Posted 25 April, 2017 Posted 25 April, 2017 Technically we walk out to 'The Saints are coming' which isn't half bad, except we get about 20 seconds of it before all of that 'My Way' trash. As mentioned above 'This is the one' and 'Local hero' are pretty neat. Also Everton / Watford and 'The theme from Z Cars' and another skids song 'Into the Valley' at Dunfermline and Charlton. Honourable mentions for 'Liquidator' at Chelsea and 'Falling in love with you' at Swindon.
steadyeddie Posted 25 April, 2017 Posted 25 April, 2017 The sooner we drop 'My Way' the better. It is excruciatingly embarrassing, and nauseous.
Colinjb Posted 25 April, 2017 Posted 25 April, 2017 Not Leicester. (Assuming they still walk out to that Fox hunting bugle stuff.) Birmingham City used to walk out to 'Feel It' by Tamperer ft. Maya. Worked well with the home crowd in unison chanting 'Blues-Blues-Blues' at the appropriate time. Not classic, but effective. Did like us emerging solely to 'The Saints are Coming.'
shurlock Posted 25 April, 2017 Posted 25 April, 2017 Like Wolves/Wednesday's hi ho silver lining, even if only for the local accents. Burnley playing Arcade Fire is very unfootbally, straight off Radio 6 Music, a refreshing break from the Stone Roses etc.
St Louis Posted 25 April, 2017 Posted 25 April, 2017 Chelsea, Liquidator. + 1 - It's just so Chelsea, and a nod to their roots. No need to always move with the times
Turkish Posted 25 April, 2017 Posted 25 April, 2017 Man uniteds this is the one Sheffield uniteds Greasy chip Butty song is good
Miltonaggro Posted 25 April, 2017 Posted 25 April, 2017 Portsmouth - Gary Glitter, Do you wanna be in my gang?!

Dr Who? Posted 25 April, 2017 Posted 25 April, 2017 Man Utd have 'This Is The One' by The Stone Roses, which sounds great I hate to admit it, but this is the best one, even though I do like the Met Police idea!
Dr Who? Posted 25 April, 2017 Posted 25 April, 2017 I would ****ing love it, if the skates came out to 'The Adams Family".
DT Posted 25 April, 2017 Posted 25 April, 2017 we should walk out to the theme tune of ITV's 'The return of the saint' from about 100 years ago
Bad Wolf Posted 25 April, 2017 Posted 25 April, 2017 Newcastle spent a season entering to Kurt Angle from WWE's theme music...It was beyond cringe and so typically American. Their fans might as well have been chanting "NEW-CAST-LE, NEW-CAST-LE" in the way the Yanks chant "USA" during NFL half-time shows etc. In our Championship relegation season, we should have entered to the Benny Hill tune. A fitting tribute to our City's most famous (non directly Saints related) son.

So now in my head I can see a highlights/bloopers package from that season played at 2x speed with that music in the background and McGoldrick and co falling over and mis-kicking. I wish someone would do that.
bertie Posted 25 April, 2017 Posted 25 April, 2017 I'd love us to come out to Thunderstruck - AC DC. Sunderland's is pretty good too. Anything but the appalling and atmosphere-destroying My Way.
Faz Posted 25 April, 2017 Posted 25 April, 2017 I'd love us to come out to Thunderstruck - AC DC. Sunderland's is pretty good too. Anything but the appalling and atmosphere-destroying My Way. Yes, Sunderland. Does anyone use Kashmir by LedZep?

JonnyLove Posted 25 April, 2017 Posted 25 April, 2017 Why is it that all I can think of with Shlongs My way that when we signed him the interview process went Club = "Shane we want you come play football for us" Shane = "So you want me to write the theme tune, sing the theme tune" Club = "no no no, just the football" Shane = "Well i'm not coming then" Club = "ok, write the theme tune, sing the theme tune, score lots of goals" Shane = "ohh errr no, I only write the theme tune, sing the theme tune" Club = "but what about the football and goals" Shane = "have you seen me play?" Club = "Good point, heres £50k a week, and can you make the tune to the theme of my way to go with our world wide marketing strategy?" Shane = "No probs"
Disco Stu Posted 25 April, 2017 Posted 25 April, 2017 Personally I think we should be employing 'Craig David - 7 Days' as we walk onto the pitch...
doddisalegend Posted 25 April, 2017 Posted 25 April, 2017 I've said it before but the perfect song for modern day saints fans is the Smiths Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now but for the players perhaps Iron Maidens Die With Your Boots On ok the song might not mean football boots but the players should get the idea Failing that Dire Straits Money For Nothing would be perfect for the players with just a few subtle changes to the Lyrics (I want my Sky TV)
