Suggestions for Pre-Match Music

[Chunkylad]

It’s funny that the o/p starts with we need to have pre match music to get the younger generation going and then the whole thread is songs from the 60s, 70s and earlier but all last century.
Anything in the last 10 years catch your eye? A bit of Billy Eilish?

If they start playing Sweet Caroline pre-match I'm turning up at 5 past 3 and making you all stand up to let me get to my seat

 

[Adams Kebab]

Tsunami, get the Westies raving their tits off.

 

[Steve Fisher]

I’m not a big fan of pre-match music.. I prefer to let the fans sing to welcome the team onto the pitch… I think it’s much more intimidating for an away team to hear the roar of the north stand when they come onto the pitch, rather than some kind of staged party singalong… grounds with no atmosphere need the fans pumping up.. we don’t!

 

[fcblackpool]

Anything that can't be clapped along to.

However I'd go for Sunshine on Leith (The Beach) by The Proclaimers. Easily adaptable and probably the best footy anthem EVER.

It is quality that. Amazing when they won that Cup Final.

The club has got it's soul back, I reckon "Indestructible" by The Four Tops would be an uplifting anthem to play before the teams come out.

Change the words 'United Forever' to 'Seasiders Forever' and it would be perfect, IMHO!

Must not go to many away matches probably all the other 91 clubs have pre match music

 

[Shootz]

Think Ace of Spades would be a brilliant walk out tune

Can't listen to that without thinking of that stupid egg advert.

It's a crackin tune founts.

 

[1953]

A bit of me died on Tuesday when I heard 'swords of a thousand men' playing AGAIN at Bloomfield Road. It's an OK song but sounds dated and hardly inspiring a new audience. Clearly our record collection at BR doesn't go past 1981 and so am just wondering if we can help by suggesting some tunes for the matchday experience and then have a vote?

Crewe play this plus it has to be played on original vinyl

 

[Graham berrys plastic bag]

Skinhead Symphony by The Specials

Brilliant to see that video again, it’d be nice to play it pre match as a sign of respect when a certain previous owner shuffles off his mortal coil

 

[TwelveAngryMen]

My fave

 

[dodgy_surname]

Born pool as free as the tower grows
As free as the sand blows
Born tangerine

 

[ToBeHonest]

Shang-A-Lang
Bay City Rollers …… a classic

 

[The Catcher in the Rye]

Jump Around, House of Pain, could be fun

 

[Lewis_Winthorpe]

Just go for a classic like Sweet Caroline. Everyone likes it and yes I know it’s hardly original but it’s a feel good song.

No thanks, it's awful

 

[Tangerine10]

AC/DC - Thunderstruck every time for me

Bispham Seasider; I thought I was the only one on the planet who remembered Snuff Rock by Alberto y Lost Trios Paranoias.
40 years since I heard it - cheers

 

[Eventhepenguins]

I'd go with the intro to Welcome to the Jungle by Guns n Roses. Especially one of the live versions. If I was a boxer that's probably be my ring walk music

 

[The Vendor]

‘Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life’

 

[Steve Fisher]

Must not go to many away matches probably all the other 91 clubs have pre match music

He he.. I do go to away games, but just have to grin and bear it! A couple of pints beforehand helps to kill the pain!

 

[SirHarryThomson]

Jump Around, House of Pain, could be fun

I concur a lot of College American Football teams use this and the crowd go wild

 

[1966_and_all_that]

I said 'Oh I do like to be beside the seaside' above, and it was a serious suggestion. However, for those who prefer something bone shaking I'll say the Slade original of 'Cum on Feel the Noise'.

 

[Levi501]

If we wanted one I’d also say “Beside the seaside“ it’s our song, the town‘s song over the decades, synonymous with Blackpool, unique, but with slightly tweaked lyrics:
”Oh I do like to be beside the seaside,
Oh I do like to be beside the sea,
oh I do like to stroll along the prom,prom,prom,
Cause Blackpool’s were I’m from,from,from!!
Belted out from the North by all the pups would sound great IMO, and I’m not even getting me coat!

[BobHatton]

I've always imagined the players coming out to Thunderstruck by AC/DC.....
