Great idea, well done the club.

I voted no for goal music and sandstorm as it's quite energetic.

Escala string quarter when they came out? Only if they're actually on the pitch.

Ponty

12-08-2008, 05:46 PM

Shame it's an open poll. I'd imagine we'll get whatever the Skates think we deserve.

Andy_Porter

12-08-2008, 05:50 PM

Please can everyone take the minute it takes to vote no to goal music.

It makes us look like amatuers and I personally cringe when any team does it, if we carry on doing this we will end up looking like Middlesboro, Wigan etc. We do not need music after goals to create an atmosphere...

Vote no!

Also i think music after goals will help the atmosphere this season especially as we are likely to only have around 15-20k at each match, all the noise we can get i say

Music after scoring?? Either way the DJ wouldn't be overworked would he!! (Sorry). As for the choices on the poll - I don't know all of them so will opt for Sandstorm.

Saints67

12-08-2008, 06:01 PM

Voted no to music as 'Boro, Wigan & Bolton have done it when the stadium is half empty and it sounds pap. Also if we're 3-0 down in the 90th minute and we score is it really worth banging 'I FEEL GOOD' out?

TijuanaTim

12-08-2008, 06:04 PM

Wrong forum - thread etc, so I apologise in advance, however with the whole 'can't pay due to dollar/sterling payment capability issue thing' I just wanted to say that (trying desperately to relate to the subject) to 'generate an atmosphere' a bunch of old - young genuine Saints fans (rather than just ex-'lads') will be meeting in the (oh God, I'm sorry) Painted Soul Wagon Cellar before the Brum game next Saturday.

Anyone wanna join us to discuss Southampton and generate a realistic, feel-good factor prior to match against Birmingham. Y'know, chat, look forward and remember what is that mkes us love Saints so much. I am totally serious about that part!!

Come on you know it makes sense!!

I think the Pirates.... is the best choice TBH.

Good choice. Although I would prefer Primal Scream - Kill All Hippies

AndyNorthernSaints

12-08-2008, 06:13 PM

No to music after goals.
Preferred the Skids original version of "the Saints are coming" myself.

saint lard

12-08-2008, 06:22 PM

No to goal celebration music please.

I would prefer "Battle without honor or humanity" by Tomoyasu Hotei,from the Kill Bill soundtrack.

I would post a link but being the technophobe i am, i haven't got a clue how too,can someone enlighten me, cheers.

paulwantsapint

12-08-2008, 06:34 PM

Pre match & pre half time should be
OH WHEN THE SAINTS.... ( PLAYED PUNK ) followed by THE SAINTS ARE COMING (either skids or U2/Green Day)

Forget any urban, rap, boy/girl group, sh1t just play rock/ good upbeat sing a long anthems that add atmosphere

Ziggy

12-08-2008, 06:44 PM

U2 is walking it and 59% saying no to music after a goal so far.

itchen

12-08-2008, 06:52 PM

Make the Dutch duo feel at home with "Hocus Pocus" by Focus. I put this as a joke but looking at the video I'm pretty sure it would scare the opposition.

Why no Leonard Cohen option?

frankie

12-08-2008, 08:19 PM

No music after a goal and Escala for me superb stuff. Have emailed the suggestion of 'Leave Right Now' by Will Young as well but not sure that will be popular :-)

Please not POTC theme tune music, that would be embarrassing. Theres nothing wrong with the music itself, just no! Rocky Balboa would be a bit ghey :D but I like it. Who to vote for though...

Quality suggestion. Add in Sylvia and House of the King and it will be the best music at any stadium!

really the atmosphere pre-match was flat last season , bring back Mike Osman regardless if you like him or not.

His enthusiam got the supporters going just as it did for Claus's testimonial.

This Charming Man

13-08-2008, 10:04 AM

If they are really that bothered about creating a matchday atmosphere, the clueless w*nkers wouldn't have shut down one of the noisest parts of the ground.

A bit of music when the teams come out doesn't count as an "atmosphere".

What a load of rubbish.

SaintRichmond

13-08-2008, 10:14 AM

Darth Vador's entry theme would be quite good .............

"The Dark Side of The Force" .... when McGoldrick, BWP, John, Thomson, Dyer, Euell Bang 'em in ...........

miserableoldgit

13-08-2008, 10:34 AM

Heaven Knows I`m Miserable Now - The Smiths??:)

Why anyone would vote for the U2 song I don't know, its awful, only plus is it has 'saints' in it

Dibden Purlieu Saint

13-08-2008, 12:00 PM

I have a couple of rousing songs for the start of games...

O Verona - Quinton Tarver (out of the beginning of Romeo and Juliet, powerful classical music - makes the hairs stand on the back of your neck and only 2 minutes long for full version)

Clubbed to Death - Rob Dougan

Both are well known and it would really work nicely. Glad to see you're listening to the fans again!!

Danny R

13-08-2008, 12:05 PM

No to music after goals.
Preferred the Skids original version of "the Saints are coming" myself.

I agree, excellent song and slightly more apt than sandstorm.

mitch01

13-08-2008, 12:27 PM

Please let it be the POTC theme, it would be hilarious.

suspect everyone

13-08-2008, 12:37 PM

The most appropriate entrance music would be the Muppet Theme Tune.

I despise goal celebration music. 65% agree with me at this point.

isorry

13-08-2008, 01:05 PM

Is it just me or is 'the saints are coming' really corny and generally a very poor tune?

The only music I've ever enjoyed saints coming on to was one vision by queen at the dell, so I'd vote for bringing that back if i had the chance

adriansfc

13-08-2008, 01:09 PM

No.

We are called Saints, the saints go marching in has nearly always been our song to come onto, don't be gay Ade.

Are you suggesting the mid-90s was gay?

It was great seeing them come out to one vision.

Nothing gay about coming out to queen.

errol_slymm

13-08-2008, 01:10 PM

A resounding NO! to after goal music

As for walk on music (2nd half) I will be emailing the club and suggesting

Theme from the muppets
Theme from Laurel and Hardy
Here comes that sinking feeling - The Eurythmics
Heaven knows I'm miserable now - The Smiths
We are the angry mob - Kaiser Chiefs ((for later in the season)
Sugar we're going down - Fallout Boy

(Sheriushly, mind, that track "Battle without honor or humanity" from the Kill Bill 1 soundtrack was awesome when they played it before we beat the skates 3-0)

miserableoldgit

13-08-2008, 02:49 PM

Some years ago, I think it was the Youth team used to come onto the pitch to Aarron Copelands "Fanfare for the Common Man" played by Emerson Lake and Palmer. Seemed to work quite well.

He is ok, but I don't think that we can afford him. There was a thread on the old TSF which quoted an astronimical amount that he was paid.

Portsmouth Pirates EPL team enter the arena to the 'Pirates of the Carribean' theme tune and have for the past two seasons. I sugest saints choose something more apt. Maybe 'My heart will go on' by old longface, As it is the theme from 'Titanic'.

Guys, guys,

This is no throwaway quiz here. This needs SERIOUS thought.

Have you ever been to the stadium of light and heard Romeo and Juliet when the Lads run out?? Hair on neck time!!

We need a song we can OWN - something no-one else plays that scares the crap out of the opposition. Fat Boy is played all over the place. As it that Sandstorm thing (altho I like it)...

Surely, surely its got to be the fit girls Escala????

No, not at all. I feel it must be the Pirates theme tune. Not only would it be unique to our club, but it is a stirring and rousing piece of orchestration.

I can't believe anyone could seriously like music after goals, it is just embarrasing and cringeworthy. One third seem to though.

The roar of the crowd is music to my ears, it's what football is all about, not piped muzak. Stick to the lifts in the local Forte Hotel if that's your thing!
