I've never felt more like singing the blues

[Sitch]

When Brighton win and Palace lose, oh Brighton, you got me singing the blues !

 

[JonathanLivingstonSeagull]

This doesn't make sense! Why does everyone do it that way round!?!!

You sing the blues when you are sad!

Everyone sort it out.

i seeeeeeee

i still think it is a crucial flaw that in the double-meaning it contradicts itself

and it would still work if we 'blues' had lost! in fact it would make more sense as both readable meanings would tally! i suppose it's ironic like a lot of footie songs...

anyway thats enough of me being a boring sod...

 

[British Bulldog]

When Brighton win and Palace lose, oh Brighton, you got me singing the blues !

Been a while but it's good to have it back!

stop analysing it and start singing it.

Oh I never felt more like singing the blues
When Brighton win and Palace lose
Oh Brighton, you've got me singing the blue.

you sing the blues when you're pissed off. Everyone knows that don't they?
obviously not.
are you palace in disguise?

 

[Nibble]

It's a shit song, it does not make any sense and frankly makes us sound as inbred as Palace. It just doesn't work.

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

It's not a song, it's a bloody football institution! As said above, good to have it back.

When Brighton win and Palace lose
Oh Brighton, you got me singing the blues.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

I'll ask for permission in triplicate next time I want to sing a song when we win.

 

[Icy Gull]

It's part of Albion folklore.

We used to sing it a lot and then things went a bit shit thanks to Archer and Stanley, bloody great to be able to sing it again imo

 

[Cheeky Monkey]

For any wondering about the 'blues' bit, it's sung by teams that play in blue - Man City, Sheff Wed and Everton being the chief exponents of the craft (well according to Wikipedia anyhoo)

 

[Normal Rob]

I have only ever heard it sund at other clubs when their team loses as their rivals win. It has always, to me, meant that this song can only be sung if we lose and palace win. You sing the blues when you are sad.

Are people really moaning about this? Christ, next it'll be "but we don't go down the old shoreham road anymore"

True and since we are on about incorrect songs, when did Peter Ward play from number 1 to number 12, ridiculous, Can't believe that no-one has picked up on this Wardy Wonderland rubbish

[mcshane in the 79th]

Someone dared to suggest we weren't by far the greatest team the world has ever seen the other day too - unbelievable

 

[Peter Grummit]

Good to have this song back.

Normal service has been resumed.

I also thought the term "singing the blues" was as in singing along to the musicial genre. I.e. Blues, Jazz etc !!!
