I was invited to be the Dons participant, but declined as they’d never have got 30 profane-free minutes out of me, since I believe that the “anti-chants”, pointing out the unsavoury incestuous habits, lack of hygiene, and utter fckuing uselessness and inferiority of almost every other club are generally superior and much more inventive. Of course, I have been known to hum along to a raucous Northern Lights, Stand Free, or Up Yer Erse Wi A Broken Screwtap.
“ Hi,
Hope you're well.
On Colin Murray's BBC 5live programme he and Pat Nevin have a feature called the Great Football Songbook, where they look into the historical origins of football anthems.
I'm looking for an Aberdeen fan as we're going to pre-record an episode next Wednesday August 13th looking at songs associated with Aberdeen FC (historical/current). All done remotely via Zoom and will take about 20/30mins.
No club's story is the same...some clubs have one traditional song and that's it...others have over a dozen linked to them...some are original compositions while others are pop songs.
Might someone you know be available and up for this? It's really good fun!
Thanks,
Carla”
Hopefully ?I Wanna Dan Smith Somebody? gets a mention. Criminal that never caught on
Ah message to you Rooney.
Was my lost classic.
I'm Michael Bird, I don?t know how to play
I don't know where the ball is
I don't know where the goal is
And baby, all I need for you to know is
I'm Michael Bird, I don?t know how to play
I never meant to cause you any sorrow
I never meant to cause you any pain
I only wanted to one time to see you scoring
I only want to see you scoring goals like Curtis Main.
Curtis Main, Curtis Main.
Curtis Main, Curtis Main.
Only want to see you scoring goals like Curtis Main.
Never caught on either.
Hugh Sproat's a w@nker.

He is sh*te, sh*te, sh*te

Its interesting how some songs get passed on from generation to generation.
When the reds go steaming in was sung last night.
I think that one started in the 80s.
Others are dropped. Not just because associated with players Joey Joey born is the King of Pittodrie was one I did not like as to the tune of a Christmas Carol and reminded me of school assembly
But also others as of their time: we shall not be moved-civil rights 60s stuff was dropped by the end of the 70s?
And back in the 70s northern lights was hardly sung. This is no longer the case.
