If Newcastle could have a theme song which they could have played before games were you could get the fans singing what would it be?

 

Blaydon Races would be the obvious one for me but it's sung too fast with the wrong words.

 

Hey Jude  ( The chorus ) . . . .

 

Obviosuly Liverpool and Celtic have YNWA , Manure have Country Roads , Man City Blue Moon . . . etc . . .

 

What would you like ?

Only fools and horses theme tune would be appropriate right now, or maybe entry of the gladiators with some clowns running around.

 

We should get the Dropkick Murphy's to come play, might hype everyone up a bit too much though.

 

For a theme it has to be something that has a connection the club/fans/area.. other than the songs we alreadt have I cant really think of anything appropriate.

The Benny Hill theme tune.

 

To answer YNWA

 

"According to former player Tommy Smith, Gerry Marsden presented Liverpool manager Bill Shankly with a recording of his upcoming cover single during a pre-season coach trip in the summer of 1963. "Shanks was in awe of what he [had] heard. [...] Football writers from the local newspapers were travelling with our party and, thirsty for a story of any kind between games, filed copy back to their editors to the effect that we had adopted Gerry Marsden's forthcoming single as the club song."[4]

 

Marsden himself told BBC Radio how, in the 1960s, the deejay at Anfield would play the top-ten commercial records in ascending order, with the number one single transmitted last, shortly before kickoff. Supporters standing on the Spion Kop terrace would sing along, but once "You'll Never Walk Alone" dropped out of the top-ten, says Marsden, they continued to sing it.[5][6] The song was later adopted by the Scottish teams Hibernian and Celtic[3], Dutch teams Feyenoord and FC Twente,[7] and Japan's F.C. Tokyo.[8]"

Living in an area with a large contingent of Liverpool fans, writes Damian, who lives in Chester should you be wondering, I'm constantly being drawn into debates about who sang You'll Never Walk Alone first. I've failed to come up with evidence to support my belief that it was the Celtic faithful. I'd appreciate any information which serves to conclude this dispute once and for all.

 

While many Celtic fan-based websites provide the words to You'll Never Walk Alone, and it features on the CD Green & White Anthems, there is no historical evidence that Celtic fans sang it on their terraces first. Instead, a cursory glance back in time shows that Liverpool have the much stronger claims.

 

After all, the song, originally written by Rodgers and Hammerstein in 1945 for the Broadway musical Carousel, only became a terrace favourite after it was covered by Gerry and the Pacemakers in November 1963. Almost immediately - as footage from Panorama in 1964 shows - Liverpool supporters adopted it.

 

As Paul Fields points out: "Before the early 60s football fans made noise and occasionally chanted something brief (like Play Up Pompey!) but it was the Kop that started singing popular songs of the day (mainly Merseybeat songs such as Gerry and the Pacemakers' You'll Never Walk Alone) and later started to adapt the lyrics of songs to celebrate the team and its players.

 

"If any Celtic fans still claim that they sang it first, it would have to predate Gerry's version. Now can you really see thousands of working class Glaswegians in the 50s/early 60s spontaneously joining in a sing-along from a Rodgers and Hammerstein musical?" No, us neither.

Blaydon Races. I'm sure if you can influence some fans to join in that droning, "Oh when the Mags" crap, you can sing the Blaydon Races slowly, with their proper words, and people will slowly but surely join in.

The Coast is Always Changing by Maximo Park would be the better choice out of the Maximo Park songs I reckon.
