trousers Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 I think it's a cracker but then I am a tad biased! Available for download here: http://www.saints-aid.co.uk/ Coast are due on stage at Saints Aid at 3pm next Saturday. Highly recommended!
Amesbury Saint Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 (edited) Very good! but should it not be Bruce Springsteen & The Sessions Band Saints Go Marching In or Louis Armstrong - When The Saints Go Marching In Clearly Loius or Bruce will not be there! Edited 16 May, 2009 by Amesbury Saint add alternatives
Saint_clark Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 Quite like it. Lyrics are good. This, Saint Until U Die and the Alan Ball songs are the best our fans have written.
IrishSaint Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 Theres something about it I actually quite like! Is it going to be released on itunes etc for download? A good money maker for SOS and a lift for our profile.
Mole Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 Theres something about it I actually quite like! It sounds like Irish music so that'd explain why you like it and I don't.
IrishSaint Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 Haha, I'll give you that! I notice they are a semi-celtic band, must look into them a bit more.
SoccerMom Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 Stirring stuff - how do we buy it? One thing, though - have these guys ever really BEEN to SMS? Singing in the Chapel end? Really?? Just kidding. Well done, lads.
stardustonmyfeet Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 Nice anthem! I was expecting it to be **** but I could imagine people singing this at SMS next season (we'll be there, I'm sure... )
ladysaint Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 (edited) Really like it, just one criticism do we need the commentary part. Must be good though has left me with an ear worm. Edited 16 May, 2009 by ladysaint
Saint_clark Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 Nice anthem! I was expecting it to be **** but I could imagine people singing this at SMS next season (we'll be there, I'm sure... ) "we all need these colours, we all bleed these colours, when our hearts are on the line, we cry tears of red and white" Make a good chant IMO, and a unique one for once.
Loyal Saint Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 Like that. Great effort fellas. Would make a nice change to have a few Saints related songs in the few minutes before kick off rather than the usual drivel I'd have that along with a decent version of O' When The Saints and chuck in the The Bells of St Marys as well
scott_saints Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 I also thought the chorus would make for a good chant at SMS. Not that it'd ever happen, seeing as we can't seem to sing anything that's more than a few words long.
miserableoldgit Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 Utter drivel. Pass me a bucket. ....and I am miserableoldgit!!!
whitenred Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 "we all need these colours, we all bleed these colours, when our hearts are on the line, we cry tears of red and white" Make a good chant IMO, and a unique one for once. Agree. But then I was quite impressed by Mull of Kintyre at Forest...not sure I should have admitted that....
Saints foreva Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 I was very impressed with Mull of Kintyre at Forest too. Sung with such passion and pride. I would love for this to become a chant.
Mole Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 I was very impressed with Mull of Kintyre at Forest too. Sung with such passion and pride. I would love for this to become a chant. I wouldn't. What has an Irish song got to do with Notts Forest or us? I did think that when they sung "you've lost that loving feeling" when they equalised/went ahead was good though.
Belgiansaint Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 Not my cup of tea in principle, but given the circumstances I guess it must go down as a really good effort. And a good chant for the terraces, too.
miserableoldgit Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 I wouldn't. What has an Irish song got to do with Notts Forest or us? I did think that when they sung "you've lost that loving feeling" when they equalised/went ahead was good though. It is not Irish, but how many English people do you see with the silly Guiness hats on, on St Paddys Day. Whats it got to do with England? It is not meant to be a candidate for Eurovision, a Brit Award, an Ivor Novello Award or a Mercury Music prize. It is a rallying call for all Saints supporters and I think that it works.
Poshie72 Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 not bad agree that the chorus could make a good chant on the terraces
Block 5 Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 ....and I am miserableoldgit!!! You're fired! Get a new name........

Click the link and press the little play button (top right). THIS is THE tune that our players should walk out to. http://www.last.fm/music/James+Brown/_/When+the+Saints+Go+Marching+In :cool: Edited 16 May, 2009 by Block 5

Just kidding. Well done, lads. Hehe...good spot! I was having a chat with the lead singer (Paul Eastham) earlier and I did say he would get some flack for the 'Chapel End' line! He said that he tried recording a version with 'Northam End' but it didn't trip off the tongue as well as 'Chapel End'...so put it down to artistic licence! Cheers!
paris Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 Boff good effort ,can't really knock it's for a vey good cause ...6/10....

I'd imagine there'd be a stunned silence followed by fits of laughter from the away following. Not the uplifting version I had in mind!!

SFC Forever Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 It is not Irish, but how many English people do you see with the silly Guiness hats on, on St Paddys Day. Whats it got to do with England?

Crab Lungs Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 It's actually really quite good, I do like it. I don't normally like these kinda songs, especially soppy charity ones but this is very good.
Loyal Saint Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 You are obviously NOT wearing your sunglasses. No, I'd consider ear plugs though ;-)

Well put If you'd bothered to follow the thread you'd know i was talking about Mull of Kintyre, not the Irish sounding Saints Aid song. As i said before it's a good effort if you like that sort of jingle but not my thing.
StuRomseySaint Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 It's quite good, although I don't get the main lyric of.... " When I need a friend, I go down to Chapel End " .... there's not many people down there in recent years and to be honest, if I was looking for a friend, I would go to the Northam End, friendfinders.co.uk or West Quay.
miserableoldgit Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 I wouldn't. What has an Irish song got to do with Notts Forest or us? I did think that when they sung "you've lost that loving feeling" when they equalised/went ahead was good though. Mull of Kintyre is in Scotland, although the song is ,of course, written by an Englishman. "You`ve Lost That Loving Feeling" is American.:confused:

StuRomseySaint Posted 16 May, 2009 Posted 16 May, 2009 'When I need a friend, I'll go in the Northam End' That trips off the tongue and is fine, get him to change it and I will download it. :-)

"You`ve Lost That Loving Feeling" is American.:confused: Well if it's Scottish (or Scotch as i like to call them to my Scottish neighbour who gets wound up easily) then that makes it even more of a no no.
