Living in a De Zerbi wonderland
Below is a quick off the top of my head list of songs that the more talented wordsmiths out there could try to create an original new song for either the team or a specific player. I've not selected from any specific period, just gone for songs that meet as many of these as possible:
The Clash - London Calling - Brighton Calling?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lotkzHsIuoA
Roxette - It Must Have Been Love - the Chorus is slow and easy to sing
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YPH3iDAhkb8
Jefferson Starship - Nothing's Gonna Stop Us now - once again the chorus is slow easy to sing, and a lot of the words are relevant already
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UBoQvhzeeCY
Abracadabra - Steve Millers Band - catchy, memorable.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_scFjd2pSI
Saturday Night – Whigfield - catchy chorus, easy lyrics.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j3CWkayic5Y
Ace Of Base - All that she wants - slow, well known? repeatable chorus
YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.
Billy Joel Uptown Girl - slow, melodic, well known tune with simple lyrics
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEIcTstEmnQ
Beatles - Let it Be - I know this is used elsewhere, but it's beautiful and fits all the criteria
YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.
The Beach Boys - Good Vibrations - catchy, well known, a but tricky perhaps
YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.
The Who - Pinball Wizard - bit too fast? But any chorus which features 'Wizard' must be possible
YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.
Human League - Don't you Want me Baby
YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.
Depeche Mode - Just Can't Get Enough - If only for the Chorus
YouTube - Broadcast Yourself.
This is just a few - perhaps if other's have candidates they can add them. We can do this!
- Are memorable or already well known
- Contain catchy sections or chorus
- Simple Lyrics
- Pertinent Lyrics
