Melbourne Football Club - New Theme Song pre-match

[dee-luded 2,958]

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!

it's Ok dave they cannot afford another win this season, they'll bounce on the way backdown, once they're back on the deck next week, to the home team, up there. tis the way tis done, these days, dave.

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?

This is the perfect post-match theme song for both players and supporters (language warning)

I still think the Benny Hill music is appropriate for during the match.

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.

Like your work Goffy. With apologies to the great man:

Shadows are falling, and we've been at the G all day

It's too cold to sleep and time is running away

Feel like our souls have turned into steel

We've all got the scars another loss won't help us heal

There's not even wins enough to just smile and stare

It's not dark yet, but it's getting there.

Well our sense of winning is going down the drain

Behind every useless draft pick, there's been so much pain

We wrote them an email and it wasn't kind

We put down in writing what was on our mind

Some just don't see why they should even care

It's not dark yet, but it's getting there

Well we've been to Etihad and been to the G

We've followed the flag some since we were three

We've been down to the bottom of a whirlpool of lies

We're just lookin' for some fear in their eyes

Sometimes our burden is more than we can bear

It's not dark yet but it's getting there

We were born Dees and will die Dees sometimes against our will

We say we are movin' but we're staying still

Every nerve in our body is naked and numb

Sometimes we wonder what it was we came here to get away from

Roosy what you hear is the murmurs of our prayer

It's not dark yet and we don't want it getting there.

Comment of the day IMO.

Should be severe language warning. Only issue with this is bad day. If only our plight lasted 1 day.

Probably the best pre-game mainstream song a club can come up with.

Sorry bugle-man.
