After slagging off some Chris Cornell fans last night 😘 @Superunknown et.al, I had come across some music this morning that got me energised for the game.

Now there is no direct link to winning or The Demons in the lyrics of this song, but just a song that I like.

Here it is.

Found That Soul

 

It reminds me of a game I used to play with mates drinking,  called 'YouTube Roulette' about 15 years ago - whereby you start with a song and artist - and then the next song must have a word from the previous title/artist.

ie: Pink Floyd - Shine On You Crazy Diamond

then Neil Diamond - Sweet Caroline 

perhaps then you might go to U2's Sweetest Thing.

 

Anyway  I look forward to hearing some peoples eclectic tastes of whatever music they like between now and Friday.

    One song I blasted pregame through the 2018 finals was Oasis - f*^%in in the bushes. Crank it up.

    I’d rather this thread be opened if we get through to the GF.

    However, if the theme is general ‘fire up’ music, nothing beats Sirius.

    Watch ..... "America's Game: The 1981 San Francisco 49ers | Super Bowl XVI" on You-tube.

    Though I must say, this is also a pretty decent selection.

    Whilst on the subject of music, this is how the yanks are dealing with COVID currently. This was our tune to run out to this year, how I’d love to see the G rock like this…

    Is Kozzie Pickett our Ronnie Lott story? Maybe May actually.

    For mine I think chill is the way to go. Calms one’s nerves. To this end I’ve been giving Jean-Michel Jarre a merciless hiding. 
    But then to get the heartbeat going again I’ll blast some Chemical Brothers. You’re welcome, neighbours. 😁

    I watch these over and over, knowing that no matter how badly the Dees perform, they’ll never reach these depths…

    How could it be anything else?

    All fired up- Pat Benatar

    This is our whole season’s theme for crying out loud

     

    P.s. it was VFL’s theme for 1988. We made the grand final that year too

    Any Band-Maid song would cover it, otherwise it's gotta be

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
