[Archived] New Chants

[mellison24]

I've had a few discussions with many mates (and just now spoke to Modes98 via PM) about the lack of vocals in the BBE, where the 'best fans' are. We need a mass revolt against this silence as it kills the atmosphere. I hate having to rely on a goal, good save, or awesome tackle before we get any chants going!!

I invite you to be as creative as you like with any chants you like that never get started, or haven't been tried yet at Ewood. We need to be heard, once more!!

Feel free to steal other people's ideas; just make sure they get posted and we can give them a go at Ewood!

So, go ahead......

[super_arran]

I think the problem with No Nay Never is that many young fans don't want to sing it because to be honest it's something their nan's sing when they've had a little too much booze at christmas.

We need decent chants not just crap old songs....

[67splitscreen]

It's part of our heritage and arguably others to it seems.

[modes98]

Songs Section for inspiration.

As I said in the PM, the way to get chants to stick is for them to be funny and original. Good luck with that.

[Stuart]

Our more vocal supporters - the ones who tend to lead the current chanting - seem to be quite venomous. Usually it's about our hatred of Burnley or giving some stick to an opposition player or manager. Or even more stupid like shouting 'Millwall' to West Ham fans.

I'd like a few songs which get behind Rovers or are more iconic (like "Blue Moon" or "I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles" or "Delilah" - "Wild Rover" is probably our nearest but see above) instead of trying to do down the opposition fans. And not just "Gerrintoem" or "Attack Attack...".

Good idea Mellison but we need a bit of creativity - then we need to convince people to sing it.

I'll have a think.

He shoots with his left...

All These Things That I've Done lyrics

When there's nowhere else to run

Is there room for one more son

One more son

If you can hold on

If you can hold on, hold on

I wanna stand up, I wanna let go

You know, you know - no you don't, you don't

I wanna shine on in the hearts of men

I wanna mean it from the back of my broken hand

Another head aches, another heart breaks

I am so much older than I can take

And my affection, well it comes and goes

I need direction to perfection, no no no no

Help me out

Yeah, you know you got to help me out

Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner

You know you got to help me out

And when there's nowhere else to run

Is there room for one more son

These changes ain't changing me

The gold-hearted boy I used to be

Yeah, you know you got to help me out

Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner

You know you got to help me out

You're gonna bring yourself down

Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down

Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down

[x10]

I got soul, but I'm not a soldier

I got soul, but I'm not a soldier

Yeah, you know you got to help me out

Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner

You know you got to help me out

You're gonna bring yourself down

You're gonna bring yourself down

Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner

You're gonna bring yourself down

Yeah, you're gonna bring yourself down

Over and in, last call for sin

While everyone's lost, the battle is won

With all these things that I've done

All these things that I've done

If you can hold on

If you can hold on

The Killers- All these things that I've done

Whenever I hear this tune I always think it sounds like 'Oh you put me on the Blackburn' instead of Back burner.

Alot of teams sing proper songs, I'm sure someone could change the words around a bit!

Inspiral Carpets - First verse needs more incest.

Husband don't know what he's done

Kids don't know what's wrong with mum

She can't say, they can't see, putting it down to another bad day

Daddy don't know what he's done

Kids don't know what's wrong with mum

SO THIS IS HOW IT FEELS TO BE BURNLEY

THIS IS HOW IT FEELS TO BE SMALL

THIS IS HOW IT FEELS WHEN YOUR CLUB WINS NOTHING AT ALL

==

All things bright and beautiful,

All trophies great and small,

Rovers won the Premiership,

And you've won f**k all

==

[Ninjathunder]

Where's Peter Cucumber these days? He penned some hilarious ones. I remember his chant posted for the Dingles to sing after the 5-0 drubbing when they were forced pay to travel to the match on a ramshackle fleet of old buses. To the tune of 'God Save the Queen' it went something like:

'Stan save our ailing team

Stan save our failing team

Stan save our team'

'@#/?s were glorious

They p***ed all over us

Paid £4 for the bus

Stan save our team'

[SD4E]

Inspiral Carpets - First verse needs more incest.

Husband don't know what he's done

Kids don't know what's wrong with mum

She can't say, they can't see, putting it down to another bad day

Daddy don't know what he's done

Kids don't know what's wrong with mum

SO THIS IS HOW IT FEELS TO BE BURNLEY

THIS IS HOW IT FEELS TO BE SMALL

THIS IS HOW IT FEELS WHEN YOUR CLUB WINS NOTHING AT ALL

==

All things bright and beautiful,

All trophies great and small,

Rovers won the Premiership,

And you've won f**k all

==

we already have the top one, its been sung many times at away games...

this is how it feels to be burnley,

this how it feels to be sad,

this is how it feels when your sisters sh*gging your dad.

i like the boro one they sing about wheater...

he's one of our own,

he's one of our own....

david dunn,

he's one of our own.

Reads good but now I'll have to google for the tune.

[4ever&ever]

Got to say I really like dannys version of Inspiral Carpets song.

I think we all need to choose the song 1st and then adapt the lyrics to suit it.

[67splitscreen]

tooting rovers for me it's easy to sing will catch on quick and after a skinful the lyrics are simple, much like those we will be singing about.

[Tom]

How about:

*insert player name* clap clap clap clap clap

[Inta Beaver]

This is my version of The Killers-All these things that I've done

And where there's nowhere else to run

Is there room for one more sun

Yeah, you know you gotta help me out.

Yeah, oh please put me on the Blackburn oh oh oh

x8 Ive got soul and I am a Rover

I've got soul and I am a Rover

Have a listen on YouTube it's a quality tune.

[Tom]

Oh and just to point out 'You're just a small town in Millwall' is just about the most pathetic chant ever heard at a football match

[DeadlyDirk]

A couple of short ones which are easy and may be able to catch on.

Salgado

Not original but don't know if it's ever been used by Madrid for Salgado before....

To the tune of D-I-S-C-O

S-A-L GADO

Givet

To the tune of Louis Louis,

Givet, Givet, Woaaahoo

Andrews

To the tune of Lily Allen's 'Not Fair'

He's got no flair but at least he's really keen, at least he's really keen, at least he's really keen.

Roque

Should we ever see him again, to the tune of Elvis, Blue Sued Shoes

He moved for the money, he moved for the ho's, he had one good season and that was all he had to show so don't you ever wear white and blue!! (Needs some work this one, especially considering Citeh's colours, but I thought it was coming along for a while.)

[IAN57]

Both sets of scousers have nicked Celtic and Rangers songs, so, why don't we.

such as

Oh the bluebells are blue

oh the bluebells are blue

Oh the rovers are blue

Oh the rovers are blue

Oh the bluebells ....... and on and on and on

[Manc Rover]

some of these are terrible but 10/10 for effort! just stick to gerrintoem!!

[rovers1995]

Always look on the Turf Moore for @#/?,

Do do, do do, do do do do do do
