Tom Odell Here I Am - potential football song?

[Me and my Monkey]

Surely, SURELY, this song is crying out to be a football chant. Maybe something for one of our boys who doesn't have his "own" song.

How about, substitute "going out my head here darling" for "boings it off his head, our Dunky"?

Now, I can already here the guffaws of laughter and derision, and I would be the very first to admit that I am somewhat lyrically challenged. So I lay down the gauntlet for all you poetic types out there...

 

[Go West]

Would enough people know that tune?

 

[Me and my Monkey]

Oh, c'mon now, you'll know it when you hear it, a real ear worm

I rate Tom Odell. Good tunes and seems like a good lad.

Can't help thinking that he was thinking "Kevin ****ing Spacey! Actual Kevin ****ing Spacey.... is in my ****ing video!" though.

I would have. Brilliant.

The "na na na na na, naa naa na" thing does actually work too and if Seven Nation Army can become such a massive international chant used for everything then why not?

Only problem being the two lines have different notes. Some may struggle.

There is nothing good about this tune. It's nowhere near well known enough for a football chant.
