Melbourne Football Club - New Theme Song pre-match

Brilliant song, not the rubbish that our kids have grown up with.

Remarkable parallel about a once mighty force in decline, having a dead-cat bounce.

Port Adelaide sing "Tear us apart" before a match. The MFC could serenade this.

To those who are genuinely hurt by this, toughen up. To those who fail to see the relevance, enjoy a masterpiece. To the few who can link it, well done, as you are smart and brave. Where is H, or Trav20, or Hannabal btw?

Probably one of the greatest covers of all time.

[rjay 25,093]

Great song...Cash really nailed it.

[stuie 7,374]

And maybe Roosy can walk out to this one....

I try an escape modern music for 2 minutes, and Stuie gives me this.

Thanks.

Modern music? That Johnny Cash song was released 2 years after the Shaggy one...

Technically you are correct, but would you call the post-2000 release of "A little less conversation" by the King "modern"?

People like Orbison can make poo sound like strawberry jam; and you could probably say that for most of the baby boomer voices. Now you need to be naked and twirking for someone to listen to you.

Surprise, surprise.

On yah 'stuie'....always looking for a good argument.

At least you gave me my first laugh for the day (weekend).

I prefer the other way round to be honest. MJ sang "One" as good, if not better than Bono. What about Patti Smith in E-Bow the Letter? I am still floored.

Lol yeah that's my all time favourite song....

I think stuie's joke has taken this thread in an unexpected direction.

No one "listens" to modern music, you watch it. That's part of the problem.

Also, it's Cash covering a song in 2002 that was originally made in 94. Pretty modern all round really. Cash made a series of these albums in his last few years, all produced by the amazing Rick Rubin, they're more than worth a listen if you can track them down somewhere for your gramaphone

Love your work stuey.

Just show me how my Dr.Ore Beats connect to the old 78's and I will.

Dr. Ore? Is he a wife-basher with a PhD?

A quick look through my stash of depressing or angry songs, looking for nominations.

Bob Dylan, Not Dark Yet

Faith No More, Last Cup of Sorrow

Aimee Mann - Wise up

Actually, Last Cup of Sorrow through stadium speakers could be brutally satisfying.

Although the ambiguity about it being either 'make a new start' or 'kill yourself' could be a problem. Or, ideal.

Geez, it's growing on me.

[daisycutter 29,743]

didn't do much for me

s'pose the god botherers like it

I'm guessing you mean Dr Dre...? haha

Funnily enough, the guy who produced those Johnny Cash albums also is a massive player in Dr Dre's genre as well. Small world.

Yeah we all know how much those god botherers like nine inch nails... pun?

[Chook 15,022]

This thread is everything that’s wrong with Demonland.

[Sir Why You Little 37,134]

"It's not Dark yet...But it's gettin' there.."

[Emerald 1,744]

The song 'hurt' originally came from an album called 'the downward spiral' so yeah,it's appropriate for MFC.

interesting thoughts TGR

the deeper meaning ???????

[DemonDave 1,092]

I did have a chuckle when Carlton played Phil Collins "In the Air Tonight" before their theme song as they ran out yesterday. I guess it worked for them!

just the thing to ode those fiercely hungry Mcc patrons before the slaughter
