Ring of Fire

[Rugrat]

Don't give away Barber's money making tricks away!

Maybe come up with half length scarves to overcome getting twatted around the mush by your neighbour. Plus it will be a special twirling scarf so won't need to have the insulating properties of the proper jobby

Isn't that just a tad twattish tho? Dropping match information in favour of a slightly gormless grown-up extension of fanzone? There's a time and a place shirley. And the time is about five minutes earlier. IMHO its on a par with goal music in the cringeworthy stakes. Doubtless a subtle if harmless marketing ploy by the club to sell more scarves. Bah humbug!

Does anybody not already know the team and bench at KO time, besides it 100 times better than Hi Ho NottmForest/Wolverhampton/andalltheotherteamsthatusethis

Palace have been singing it since they burnt down their own town.

 

[BBassic]

I think it's great.

I like to think of the Amex as the titular Ring of Fire as well.

Big fan of the Ring of Fire as a chant. Fulham and Charlton were both immense away days and this song helped get everyone going.

However ..... I *hate* that crappy remix they've started playing before the game. Either play the original Johnny Cash or just let the fans start it themselves. I can see why waiting for the chorus on the original doesn't quite work but that remix with the euro beat is just painful.

Could be good against Bournemouth live on TV

or not of course!!

 

[northernseagull]

The best Albion chant since Ulloa! Its a good'n and long may it continue!

 

[el punal]

Ahh Fulham away. The turning point. Hope was restored and a bloody good night out !!

Indeed it was! Is that stand still in one piece?

Might get a flaming for this, but I also don't think we need the 'we hate Pa***e' bit that a few seem to insert into RoF. It's better without it......

The actual chorus is only a very small part of the original which is why they've had to remix just that bit that is sung. When they played the whole song it didn't really work.

Half-length scarfs!

How about if you tell your neighbour to fold the normal-length scarf in the middle, and then hold the ends together?

Miles better than goal music.

Just as long as it doesnt become goal music .....

 

[Titanic]

Just as long as it doesnt become goal music .....

now THERE is an idea!

 

[oneillco]

We started it at Fulham and it caught on. Just as most football songs do.

It's fun and when everyone twirls their scarves it looks fecking awesome.

Radical idea...but instead of "der der der der der der der" we sang "we're Brighton and Hove Albion" it scans quite well once you give it a go a couple of times...

Without the "We hate Palace" there is a tendency to speed it up as usual.

 

[Ding Dong !]

Think it's great, better than most of the chants/songs !!!!

 

[dejavuatbtn]

It's definately an improvement on the Theme From Rocky that Bamber had them running out to in the late 70's/early 80s - that was quite embarrassing.

You can't mess the lyrics up , which helps in making it popular for most Albion fans

But with it sounds fuxking gash.

Yes but very bad one so lets just leave it there ...
