AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Written by a Melbourne supprter! One of the Cat empire guys. I actually don't mind it, however doubt we'll hear what it sounds like 'live' from the playing group for awhile....

[FarNorthernD 5,861]

I dislike pretty much everything about GWS but I actually think it isn't the worst club song

But as others in the media have mentioned it could be a while till we hear it sung by the players

[Sir Why You Little 36,604]

A little too Russian Cossack for my taste, but not truly dreadful, only a bit.

[ucanchoose 1,816]

It's already in the upper half dozen of songs. Unlike new teams that have new snazzy songs this one will probably stand the test of time.

[beelzebub 23,197]

Its not too bad actually...sorta sounds like a Footy club song..unlike some others

too bad theyll never get to sing it !!! :) :)

[Juicebox 628]

Not as camp as Gold Coasts and not as dry as Freo's.

[Bossdog 2,002]

Moscow Moscow dee de de dee

I can understand the thread about Scully but WTF are we doing discussing the GWS club song in a forum dedicated the greatest footy club in the world?

[Macca 16,603]

Yeah it's a bit "Eastern Bloc" . Fairly brassy but no banjo ?

I heard the bloke this morning from "The Cat Empire" say they tried to it with some banjo but later cut it out .

This saddens me

Cheers

Banjo would have been great....idiots.

Banjo would have been great....idiots.

I'm with you there ... it would have been a nice touch going with that tune done by duelling banjoes and having the cast of Deliverance stomping their feet in time with the musicians. Very emblematic of the western suburbs of Sydney and some of the players Sheedy and co have managed to get together at Breakfast Point.

Can I buy the CD anywhere?

[bandicoot 1,395]

I love it!!! Best theme song going around.

Fantastic job by Harry from cat empire.

The last 4 songs from suns, port, freo and west coast have been horrible.

Reminds me a little bit of the Stonecutter's song.

As long as this little fella gets a gig

YES!!!

Hey , that looks a bit like ..................no it can't be !

[Supermercado 2,784]

First thing I've liked about their club. Hopefully the scum's career is over and he never has to sing it.

[Chook 14,988]

I like it. It's damn hard to fit the mouthful of a name Greater Western Sydney Giants into any kind of a melody, but they did okay.

Yeah , putting all bias aside , it's quite good hey . I've had a few listens and the use of the brass is quite impressive .

Fairly sure we won't hear it much though , unless this thread gets revisited !

If "Smacka" Fitzgibbon was still kickin' we might have had a bit of banjo . Oh well .

Cheers

[wisedog 350]

Well they've avoided electric guitars, cheesy drum beats and the wimpy singers and as such, it's instantly better than the other expansion club songs.

[wattsup 470]

Got me thinking obout our footy songs Wyl . There's no other sport in the world that does it quite like our sport . Stand corrected of course .

It's something we should be quite proud of in an odd sort of way .

It's sorta like like 'Oktoberfest' , except our fascination with it is not "Beer" orientated !

Cheers ( literally )

i like how liverpool does it with there song never walk alone when they have a full house and everyone is singing it, spine tingling stuff if you have not seen it there is plenty of stuff on youtube

Of course , your right about the EPL , I'm a Hammers fan ( championship but soon to be Premier league ) and our tune is "I'm forever blowing bubbles" .

Re our club songs , I more so meant it in the sense that immediately after our games finish we all launch into song . ( if we win )

I love this part of our game . And isn't it fantastic when we sing our song after playing against the mortal enemy . Bliss !

Cheers

[Biffen 12,809]

Not bad actually .

Very Russian sounding , like a propaganda song for factory workers .

Could be the first and last time we hear it for a year or two .

[BAMF 4,107]

I really like it. It would have been really hard to create a song that sounded good now and fit in with the classic football songs.

I think they have done an amazing job. Such a shame its for such a [censored] team.
