Ok - Let's come up with a brand new & original Albion song

[the right footed denilson]

El Abd doesn't like ya
Rocking the Casbah
Rock

 

[Commander]

You seem to have missed the point. It would be good to have a song that reflects the struggle for the ground and one that's got a bit more substance than simply abusing Palace....

I don't think I could be classed as a JCL. STH at Withdean & 32 years watching the Albion mate - I've seen
most of these tunes come and go more than once!

That song has far more substance than simply abusing Palace, it also abuses Pompey and Luton as well.

I was only joking with the JCL part.

Has potential but the words need changing- surely Casper can be involved?

I was just having a bit of a giggle to be honest. But what i would say is, people are thinking far too hard about this. It's just needs to be simple and catchy so everyone (even people who haven't heard it) can sing along. The idea of doing some kind of hymn and all is nice, but actually, we have GOSBTS and people STILL f*** that up!!

 

[Razi]

OK, how about this one for serious consideration. It's a bit lively and will encourage a bit of jumping around. You might've heard it on the Budweiser advert on TV at the moment (with the big concert)...



Chorus starts at 2:35

Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da..... "It's You. It's Me. It's Brighton"...

And now for Palace fans to suggest that they sung this once in 2008 vs Norwich.

Yeah but I honestly think you could be on to something with the rock the casbah one. Anyone could pick it up straight away and it would sound wicked. You just need to change the words -

something something Casper
Someone don't like it

Come on, you put it out there, now think of some appropriate words.

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

To the tune of 'Pretty Vacant'

Oh we're so brilliant
oh so brilliant
We're Brighton

Oh we're so brilliant
oh so brilliant
We're Brighton

Oh we're so brilliant
oh so brilliant
And you....we're coming for

We're f***ing
f***ing brilliant
We're f***ing
f***ing brilliant
We're f***ing
f***ing brilliant
We're f***ing
f***ing brilliant

we're ALBIIOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNN

Albion albion albion etc(old style albion not the slow dirge al-bi-on version)

 

[eastlondonseagull]

Pretty sure i've seen...

"That's the way
Lua Lua
I like it,
Lua Lua"

Would great after a kaz goal or assist.

Like this

[HH Brighton]

I like:

That's the way
Lua Lua
I like it
Lua Lua


Remember singing it for Michael Flatts back in the 90's.

 

[IRISH and HOVE ALBION]

To the tune of We will rock you. I know it is only for the benefit of palarse but anyway.


We are We are Brighton, clap clap calp clap
We are we are Brighton, clap clap clap clap

Palarse you are scum you're a big disgrace, spreading disease all over the place
Back to smellhurst you will run
to you're caravens you pikey scum

We are we are Brighton, clap clap clap clap
We are we are Brighton, clap clap clap clap

This was suggested for Lua Lua a few weeks back, but I think it died a death, I think its a corker...... with the words as follows, or something similar... try it, it really works....

Lua Lua
Ooo yeah
Gonna get some goals
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

repeat

I really like this...but I'd tweak that third line.

Lua Lua,
Oh, yeah,
He's just too good for ya,
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

I think that is a great song.

 

[Shooting Star]

Like the Pretty Vacant suggestion.

I'm not incredibly musically minded, but I think if we could get a song where we could include the words 'Stand or Fall' in or make it the focal point, then that could be pretty 'tastic.

 

[alan partridge]

is POKE still with us?

Poke, don't like it
Pete or Casper, Pete or Casper

Lua Lua,

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

that's good. Over and over again, would sound great.

Would drop the 'He's just' though.

I thought about something like that but then thought that mocking one of our own players for his inability to get into the first team probably isn't the way to go.

I agree a million percent about reverting back to the 'Ere we go' style Albion chant, as opposedto 'Aaaal Bi Yuurn' (if that's what you mean?)

That, Mathew, is exactly what I meant.

You didn't rate my re-working of pretty vacant then?

 

[scarby]

Always think we're missing a trick with the song currently used for Adam El Abd (Mana Mana). It fits perfectly for Lua Lua, and should be his song.

El Abd, on the other hand, should have his heritage celebrated with the Addams Family tune

His sister's camel farmin'
His Dad's a Brighton barman
His Uncle's Tutankhamun
It's Adam's Family
Adam El Abd <click click>
Adam El Abd <click click>
Adam El Abd Adam El Abd Adam El Abd <click click>

qualla

both good. what is the problem with the slow one?
