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.

    And on a different tangent.
    Watch ..... "America's Game: The 1981 San Francisco 49ers | Super Bowl XVI" on You-tube.
    Reminds me of us.

    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

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
